We will be moderating harshly in this thread. Think twice before you post. Things we are watching for: image macros, balance whining, "eagles", player bashing etc. We encourage civil and reasoned critique of our moderation - please post it in the website feedback forum. Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service. Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread.

I can even get along with the double elim + carrying over the score but the way seeded players have A HUGE advantage over those from the open pool ... It just allows mediocre and even plain bad players to finish in spots they don't deserve, diminishing the results of those that have really worked hard and are up-and-coming. Like MC said, GSL allows you to place highly just by thinking about good strategies (if you're in Code S you have to win 5 times to take the trophy), while tournaments like MLG force out the players that don't have the RTS basics to compete (that is unless you're seeded ......) | ||

The pack is compiled from MLG website, so if there are none, it will not contain them unfortunately. I am not proficient enough to retrieve non existing ones there are replays from the mc vs thorzain match here: http://www.sc2rep.com/ | ||

I like TLO but he just doesn't deserve a spot, I hope to see him stomping his way through the open bracket next MLG, I have faith that the team house will work well for him in the next few months. He needs to put his head down and practice hard. If i'm not wrong he said he probably won't be able to train for a while in the near future though because his injury is getting very bad. So that's probably not gonna happen. | ||

I guess the system is fine but for those who will finish 4th place and above ... I wouldn't really give them "they 4th finish" but rather the "they are seeded 4th for the next MLG". A little subtle difference but that's just for my anal brain =P | ||

Sure, it's confusing but it takes like 5 minutes to understand if you actually give it a try. The only downside is that it's absolutely brutal on the players but as a spectator it's just perfect. | ||
