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. Cut it out.

Pretty boring game 1 and game 2...classic ZvZ.

And then Slush busts out an awesome build that counters HARD ret's mass ling bane. Sick game, really caught Ret off-guard. Hate to see Ret out of the tournament though, he had a pretty good run and showed some great games.
Try another route paperboy.

Would anyone defending extended series believe it's fair for the player coming from the winner's bracket start the Grand Finals 0-2? Because that can actually happen.

Shouldn't the player with the best overall record in the tournament always have the advantage? Even if he played the guy that came from the loser's bracket, that beat him, but lost more seriers than him before metting him again in the finals.

That is, for me, the worst possible scenario that can only be possible with extended series in group play, I just can't understand coming from the Winner's Bracket and starting the finals FAR behind.

Im not an MC fanboy, or Thorzain fanboy, but this extended series has a major impact on the tournament and in my opinion makes no sense.

A much better way of doing this is considering best of threes. So in the Thor v MC, MC won the first best of three, Thorzain the second best of three, so have a third best of three to decide the series.

Giving the earlier winner a 2-0 lead in a best of 4 is not proper. The losing player must win 4/5? This is way way too much of an edge. It does handicap 1 player to such an extent that overcoming that is very very low percentage, maybe 5%.

This is no way to conduct a tournament.


How many games the losing player must win to take 2 Bo3? ^^

Not only that. How many games has MC played today? None.

How many has ThorZain played?

Fucking extended series bullshit kills Thorzain.

I think Thorzain losing is what killed Thorzain


If there weren't extended series, they would be in a second bo3, and MC would be up 1-0.


No, MC would be up 2-0 (aka, he would have won anyway) because he already beat T-Zain in the group phase.


No Thorzain would've won.

Without the extended series Thorzain won a game, then Mc, then Thorzain, then MC Hence the 4-2 final score. If it hadn't been extended tho, it would've been thorzain won, then MC, then thorzain won ending it at 2-1 thorzain.


Stop with the fucking hypothetical situations. If it wasn't an extended series you can't say that Thorzain would've won because MC would've had a very different mentality while playing. At the end of the day, both players knew the setup of the tournament and MC beat Thorzain. Stop bitching, stop making excuses, and fucking accept it. If you want to talk about extended series being shitty, make a different thread for that. But for fuck sake stop with this hypothetical fanboy bullshit whining about how Thorzain should've won. It's enough. Focus on what games are going on now.


Best explanation given. thumbs up


"If it wasn't an extended series you can't say that Thorzain would've won"

Quote me. Where did I say that he would have won? Oh what? I didn't? I was just stating that it is more fair that way? Oh ok.

Also "focus on what games are going on now" actually I am aloud to post about games that just happened... it's called post game discussion. Get off your high horse. I was simply explaining the situation to someone else actually. Look who I quoted. I didn't go out of my way to bitch about it, I was just describing the other option.

(Most of this post was directed at the quote before the one I quoted.)


QFT Chicane. I don't understand why someone would just come in and say "hey, there's a whole conversation of 'what ifs' ... that's wrong". Like comeon, hypotheticals are worth wondering about and if you don't want to that's fine but don't get angry at people for it.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)
