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.


That wasn't a double-elimination playoff now was it......

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.


It would be an APM issue if all that happened at once. Dropping EMPs must happen before dropping the PDDs anyway since the emp would destroy the PDD energy. Not only that but the PDD is a bit more defensive than offensive anyway since they need to sit there out in the open after all. Dropping some pdds as the protoss pushes in after dropping some emps is fine imo. You dont need to stim kite either since you will be fighting range 9 collossi and stalkers need to be hit instead of letting just vikings shoot at the collossi. Its more an issue of practiced strategy and tactics and comfort not as much a question of apm.

A small raven force would be useful. Regardless of the PDD because DTs do so so much damage.

I'm starting to think that there's a big disconnect between the guy who does the voiceovers of the map videos and whoever does the animation.

Did they lose to a team that came from losers bracket after having been knocked out earlier? Yeah I don't think so.
I speak fluent sarcasm.

Usually what is used in a bracket-system is having 2*bo3. Naniwa,as upper bracket winner, must win one, while kiwikaki, as consolidation final winner, would have to win two in a row. Much better system.

not whining about balance but just like to point that idra was right when he said it was going to be him or a protoss ^^ Two protoss in the finals. lulz. go 4 gate!


Can you argue that the two finalists are among the absolute best players of the tournament?

Also feels kinda boring having to watch pvp in the finals.. Hopefully it won't only be 7 minute games.

I don't get all the extended-series whine regarding the finals. Its in the finals that it matters the least when compared to the normal double elimination finals.

I like the way double elimination is implemented in FXO open, loser needs to beat winner in 2 bo5

That's the standard procedure for double elimination brackets, to get eliminated from the tourmanent you have to be defeated in two series... which makes sense, unlike the extended series crap

Does it irritate anyone else that they keep playing this shattered temple explanation video and the guy says that players would be able to choose the gold or the natural expansion (instead of the corner expansion)?
