I think many of us don't know KawaiiRice that well nor do we give him enough credit, but he's so hard on himself and with his practice he (so far) has placed into round 5. Good luck! Also, my favorite is Tyler, or Ret, but since my dreams were smashed day 1, I'm going with KiwiKaki to take down the Gracken.

it feel weird to anyone else with this new format?

4 players need to win a single best of 3 more and they are top 6.

At the end of the first day it's already about 90% likely the 3-0 players, SeleCT, etc will top 6.
'
Incontrol is 2-1, with 2 short all in games against TLO, and now has to get a single bo3 win and he's top 6.

It seems a little weird how beneficial being seeded is :/ not that they arent great players but it's gonna be weird if a MC, MVP, nestea shows up to think they won't really be favored to win.


Players are rewarded for previous success. If they don't perform well, then they fall out of the top 16 and have to earn their spots in future events. I think it's a great system that helps ensure that players don't get knocked out earlier than they should, while still having them play enough games to prove that they belong in top 16.

Example: Gretorp does not belong in the top 16. He's 0-3, and likely will be 0-4 in a few hours. Next MLG he'll have to earn his spot in the Championship Bracket.

edit: I think the proper way to look at MLG is that Friday and Saturdays games are the preliminay games, similar to all of the TSL qualifiers. Sunday is the real tournament. The 16 seeded players are the "invites" and the Winner and Losers bracket guys are the "qualifiers".


Well here is the thing though... you get seeded higher based on where you end up losing... so if someone makes it far in the open bracket but loses to 2 solid players... they are way worse off than Gretorp who is at the worst placed in the top 20 (or is it top 24?). Then, Gretorp gets more points for making it farther than them and is again seeded higher.

Of course significantly better players can pass him, but those on a slightly better level (in other words deserving to take his spot) will have a VERY tough time.

BTW I was just going along with Gretorp as an example. I haven't seen his play at all recently so I can't comment on that... nevertheless my argument still stands.

Edit: Of course unless I misunderstood the seeding this time around... but I don't think they changed how you get points for seeding.

I think people are putting a little to much importance on these matches. Seed spots are nice, but I doubt they are wasting their best strats on these matches.

Looking forward to day 2, heating up the volcano, gl hf

You get VODs regardless of whether you buy a pass. Thats how they have done it in the past. It usually takes them a while to get them uploaded tho like a week or two.

This is directly from MLG Staff
1. The stream of Sunday's play will be re-broadcasted for a couple of days after the event. After that, all the streamed matches will be available as VoD on MLG TV.
2. The games are uploaded as VoD once the event is over. It will start with the Friday/Saturday/Sunday night games, and slowly increase from there. You can rewind with the HQ pass to watch the re-stream to catch the games you missed.

Unfortunately there is only 1 hour of playback, so if you want to get to a specific match but can't rewind back far enough you will have to wait.
The art of war is simple enough. Find out where your enemy is. Get at him as soon as you can. Strike him as hard as you can, and keep moving.
