There is still going to be an advantage for the player who won the first time. The main difference is that under the extended series system it matters whether the original series was 2:0 or 2:1, whereas in the BoBo3 system it does not. no, this is a double elimination tournament, means you have to lose 2 times to get eliminated (lose 1 in WB and another in LB). thats why the winner of the winner bracket have to lose twice to be eliminated and win one to be the champion. | ||

I didn't get to watch it and there's waaaaaay to many pages for me to sort through to find out. Thanks. Tyler was about to win first game when MLG stopped it (13 minutes in) because they were on the wrong map. PU admits he was about to lose. | ||

If not, why draw the line there and not simply for beating an earlier opponent? Why does that logic apply there but not later? The difference there is that the player from the WB has never been eliminated from the tournament, whereas the LB has been eliminated once. In order to be taken out of a double elimination tournament, you should be eliminated twice. | ||

Whether you think it should be applied is a different argument. Neither solution gives 100% happiness, but both are fair. Extended series: Avoids problems from a final series going 2-3 and the person with 2 wins advancing over the person with 3 wins. Non-Extended: Says fairness is derived from equality stemming from a reset of past results. If we ignore all past results then that would mean for the sake of consistency you'd have to remove the winner bracket's champion having an advantage over the loser's bracket, no? If not, why draw the line there and not simply for beating an earlier opponent? Why does that logic apply there but not later? I honestly don't have a horse in either race and don't have a large feeling. But both sides make sense, and the outcry about it blows my mind. Hell, at the first MLG there was even pages and pages of people crying that it was a double elimination tournament. People will complain about anything. Again, people here don't really respond to logic, and don't really understand the reality of the issue. You're pretty much wasting you're time here. The whining will overwhelm you. | ||

The definition of fair is "the same standards apply to everyone". If you don't like the system they use (I certainly don't), please say that, instead of making disingenuous comments about fairness. | ||
