The face of the match admin is probably looking like this when the games are over:

No they only need 2 in a row. The reason socke needs 3 is because his game against sjow was part of the first tie breaking set but they all tied again so they reset it.


So Sjow wins, then the series is reset and he has to win 2 more? I'm confused, why is IEM so confusing.


no..

a players needs to win 2 games in a row to pass.. thats just it


Socke has won 2 games in a row.

Or am I just completely lost and out of this?


His first win was in the 1st tiebreaker, now he is in the 2nd tie breaker with 1 win, he needs to win 1 more vs sjow to advance.

Yeah so you completely ignore him losing against squirtle in the first game of the first tie-breaker.
You don't just disregard any results like that, you have to consider each tie-breaker separately.

SjoW hasn't played his two matches yet, and Squirtle still has to play one game. Of course Socke is going to win more games if he has played more games than his opponents.

WHy is SjoW never thinking about voidrays!?! I always get ALOT of rines and a turret early vs toss

Edit: Decent Amount of Marines after all
Furthermore, I think the Collosi should be removed! (Zorgaz -Terran/AbrA-Random/Zorg-Dota2) Guineapigs <3

To people thinking its unfair that socke is not through yet. It's not and here is why.

This is the results

FIRST TIEBREAKER:

Squirtle > Socke
Sjow > Squirtle
Socke > Sjow

SECOND TIEBREAKER:

Socke > Squirtle

Squirtle = 1-2
Sjow = 1-1
Socke = 2-1.


As you see here it would not be fair to let socke win the tiebreaker at this point as sjow only had 2 games and is on the same amount of losses as socke.

Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee.
