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. -- updated 7:55 KST | ||

I'm not 100% on this, but I think last MLG people were chatting about this, where it's in general better to have faced the player in winner bracket, since then you can atleast start with 2-1, instead of 2-0. It's not extended 2-0, every single double elimation works like this: On the finals, the player from WB has to win 1 boX, while the player from LB has to win 2 boX, you could say that first the player from WB has to go down to the LB so that the player from the LB can win. Basically, you can always lose one series and still win the competition, not being that way would be unfair to the player from the WB. In MLG, extended series overide it, if it applies, which is not the case of Losira vs Idra. | ||

For example: Let's say there was no extended series for this upcoming match. If MC beat Idra 2-1, Idra would be eliminated. However, over the course of this weekend, Idra would be up 3-2 in games against MC. That is the basis for extended series. If you disagree with that, it's fine, but please at least understand why extended series is in place before you rage against it. Most of the people who crusade against extended series don't understand it and jump on the bandwagon. Playing 2 Bo3 is better than extended series. | ||

Placed 6th in Group A with 0-5 record Advanced to round 2 of the Championship Lower Bracket Defeated ?-2 to coL.CrunCher what the hell on earth. Losing almost every single game and rank 25-28? Sigh. They need to change how seeding works  | ||

No. not for THIS MLG. The code S spots were established before the program was set up so they couldnt very well kick a code S player out so the only thing you get from this MLG is 3 code A spots. The NEXT MLG and proceeding MLGs will give out a code S spot to either the winner (or 2nd or 3rd if winner doenst accept). | ||

Although, to be fair, MC would have lost to Thorzain 1-2 if not for the extended series rule and wouldn't still be in the tournament. Obviously I'm hoping they remove the extended series still, but that's most likely not going to happen. | ||
