this is why group stage bo1 is a stupid format


anyone can lose to anyone, a bunch of bo1's is a horrible way to decide "who is better" at the game given the amount of volatility in the game

losing 3 best of 1's as he did is the same as going 1-1 in two best of 3's considering he is 3-3 i think. There are enough games that losing to a worse player can be forgiven

Wait... So you guys are implying Idra lose because of the stupid BO1, am I getting the correct information here?

Probably, but it's not certain at this point.

I thought both of them are 4-2 no?

mOOnGLaDe advances, and the other spot will go to F91 or elfi.

they may as well flip coins to determine the group scores


Unless you're really, really good....like............Mvp and dominate anyway?

This isn't just best of 1 it's Bo1 in a group stage with 7 people.

Then again, people new to WCG are coddled by bo3 group matches of Dreamhack...


True but they also had smaller groups which counter acts that a little bit.

mOOnGLaDe is 4-1, F91, Socke and elfi are all 3-1. If mOOnGLaDe beats Jack, he definitely advances.


Socke is 3-2

lost to F91 and elfi

He's lost to both, Moonglade and F91.
So he is most definitely out.

WTF Killer is a scrub now? he's more than capable of finishing top 3 in this tournament... he did just that in the IEM finals.

I don't get why something like WCG would use a Bo1 format. I mean, I sort of get it, but it just feels like, hey if you can just take one game off a top level guy, you could advance. It just screams "I got lucky, but I advanced"(with all due respect to all the players)


No, because you still have to be top 2 in your group. You need more than one lucky game to get top 2.


Best of 1 format is just bad. Playing against different player you can cheese or whatever and take games off player that are better than you.

like what happened to MVP, xigua, titan and others who apparently sweeped through groups?

this format was used long time and its good dont make it sound like 6 poolers got lucky and won wcg group


You don't have to be lucky, you just have to get lucky in the one or two matches where your opponent is better.

both killer and orly are 0-4 against idra, and I guarantee they would not win a bo5 series, and had a good cheese ready to snipe him out. Orly got utterly destroyed at Dreamhack
