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. Cut it out.

So I know I'm late to the party, but can someone explain the logic of the extended series to me? I understand how it works mechanically, I just cannot see why it is used.

It protects higher seeded players assuming they are actually better and on average they are, MLG likes to protect high seed players to keep high skilled players in the tournament, that's the logic behind it. (I think someone also ran an analysis and showed that it produces more accurate results than standard double elimination according to ranking in a blog, but I didn't actually read that)

Best Protoss in the world? I think that title belongs to Stork/Bisu/Flash.

Anyways, this match should be really fun. Some straight-up, aggressive PvP.


First of all, you have to realize you are comparing BW players to SC2 players... The games are different enough that you cannot simply compare the two types of players, it just doesn't work.

Also Flash plays Terran, which makes me seriously wonder about your ability to think coherently...


Your first point is correct, but as for you and everyone else go herp derp flash plays terran you should SERIOUSLY watch the All stars games...

It was still a pretty terrible joke, but it actually made sense despite what you think...



There you go....

Top 4 placers. Right now moon and nani will take a coda A spot. Idra won't take his. The other 2 spots are still undecided.

if idra went back would he still have is code S spot?
OKAY FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE I SEE WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT

Top 3 non-korean gets code a status if the player accepts. We got 2 non-koreans left atm, nani and idra. After that we got slush, moon and ret, and moon is korean and ret won't accept probably.

So we've got nani + slush. The 3rd spot will go to either fenix/thorzain. They both got the same placement so unless one declines, I dunno how GSL will select their 3rd. Maybe have them battle it out?

Someone confirm my train of thought here.

Ugh, MC starting off down 2 games. Fuck extended series.

COME ON MC, OVERCOME THE ODDS, RISE ABOVE THIS HORRIBLE RULE.

Well beat Naniwa first, then do it.



MC would be out to thorzain if there was no extended series.


Oh stop this shit please. That's just not true at all.


Actually, it is completely accurate.


Without an extended series, it would still be 2-2. So let's just say they're tied, don't let bias jade your logic.

No, he would have won, because he was 2-1 and THEN 2-2.

I thought koreans could only take Code S spots. I think code A is restricted to nonkoreans because it is an "exchange" program. They want foreigners

How many wins does it take to win 2 best of threes.

Right 4 wins.


How many does it take to win a best of 7 in extended series.

Correct 4!

Any questions?

MLG should use the blue stream for showing the audience and the stage etc. Would be epic.
