YOu people don't understand, how fair would it be to Naniwa, if it weren't for the extended series, that he could have gone 24-0 until then finals then lose 2 out of 3 and be 2nd place? He needs to be awarded this sort of advantage, he deserves it, as everyone who comes out of the winner bracket in any tournament.


The new England Patriots won 18 straight games couple years ago, lost the super bowl IN A 1 GAME STRAIGHT UP FINAL. No bullshit about "Well we won more games this season so we really won"

Extended series is nonsense, and makes MLG look Bush league.

You know that if kiwi had won 2-0 over nani, but for some reason nani would have come through WB and kiwi LB. Kiwi would have had the lead 2-0 even tho he came from LB. Does that seem fair ?


No, but that situation is impossible.

I'd like to point out Kiwikaki did severe damage with 1/2 stalker at selects 2 naked expos, like common, 1 stalk stops all mining from your base for that long? select just needed to send a few bio to take care of it... though it could be argued that during / post tough fights it might be very hard to spare those few units and time had to be factored into killing the pylon afterwards too...

Yeah, so ridiculous how people say Select played better when 2 Stalkers ended up getting 7-15 SCV kills multiple times during the game whilst Select couldn't even get kill 5 probes with 2 full medivacs

A player who is 24-0 should have an advantage over someone who has come from losers, sorry.


Or get rid of this losers bracket extended series shit


Kiwikaki had to play three extra matches - Socke, Incontrol, Select... Don't you think that evens things out?

Any reason for no Ravens in the Terran mix there? Between DT detection and point defense drones (to protect the vikings) it seems like they'd be a good addition. Would it just have been too much gas?



No. You're absolutely right. terran just needs to catch up strategy wise. When you go bio, and the other guy is goign colossus heavy, ravens become really good at saving vikings, because they can place forward pdd's while vikings chase the army.


It's not an issue of strategy, it's an issue of execution. Being able to stim kite, drop PDDs, control vikings perfectly, cast perfect EMPs, and macro well at the same time is simply not possible with even 300 apm.


have you ever seen a BW game?


You mean where there are drops and idle units all over the place and inefficient micro? Yes in BW you can outplay the other player purely with multitasking and apm, in SC2 you cannot, Protoss can be managed with near perfect efficiency late game with 150 - 200 apm and Terran can't. This isn't a balance complaint, I play protoss, this is just the way it is.

Are you serious!? The advantage is he plays a ton LESS GAMES! He advances and STAYS IN THE WINNERS BRACKET and has an overall easier road to the finals.. Why does he get another advantage?

The winner bracket champ should get an advantage, but a two game head start is too much.

I didn't quite well understand what happened. Nani won 2-0 earlier, so it becomes extended series, which turns it into a bo7, right? If kiwi manages to win,doesn't Nani get another chance? like make it 4-2 in a bo13? or what?

O_O I like the extended series concept since it means that every single game in the tournament is meaningful, and throwing games or not revealing your full strategy would probably never be a good idea ><
Don't know why so many people are bitching about it since it's not like Naniwa hasn't earned his 2-0 lead vs Kiwi. I think it's a much better concept than automatically awarding someone a bo5 series lead since they're from the winners bracket instead of the losers bracket.


In this particular case its OK, but only because Nani has not lost a single game and Kiwi is coming from the loosers bracket and has allready used his "2nd chance".

Its not OK however like when TLO met EGincontrol, they both had used up their "2nd chance", its kinda ridic that EGinc would start with a 2-0 lead; it should be even playground at that point.
Just another noob

Although true, that's an impossibility. If you lose to someone, your in the LB. They could meet up together in the LB and that's when the extended series would come into play.
