You took what Tyler said out of context and tried to apply it to your own viewpoint. Tyler, and most people who have used or watched double elim tournaments throughout the years, know that the winner of the WB should have an adv b/c it's double elim and so in the grand finals if there is an undefeated player, that person needs to lose two series to be eliminated. MLG's system uses the, "oh we're going to give people random advantages that make no sense camp so instead of a double elim tournament we're going to have a TRIPLE ELIM tournament" That is why people are upset. MLGs rules bastardized a perfectly fine double elim tournament setup and turned it into a double elim/triple elim hybrid. I don't think this argument could be explained more clearly or cogently than this. Well said. | ||

Uh, Tyler won the first game and they reversed the results. He would have won 2-1. For the LB match, the point is that if the extended series format didn't exist, Tyler would have won 2-1. | ||

Meaning, he'd support Jinro having an advantage but not necessarily PU or TT1 having an advantage as both of them are in LB. For instance, in this game, PU nor TT1 has an advantage. Just because PU beat Tyler earlier in the tournament doesn't mean he should have an advantage because PU has already lost a game as well. You can disagree with that logic and I'm not trying to fault MLG or anything just that I think, as many others do, that MLG should learn some lessons from this tournament and revise a few rules afterwards. | ||

WB vs. LB: WB never got eliminated from the tourney once already so he should have to get eliminated twice and LB has gotten eliminated from tourney so he needs to get eliminated one more time to be completely out. LB vs. LB: Both got eliminated once but one person needs to be effectively eliminated twice more making it three eliminations for that person. Yeah, no difference... | ||
