correct. i don't get it why they still do those shitty bracket system. they also initially did that at dreamhack but luckily changed it so didn't had to potentially face your group opponent in the next round.
at least we have double elimination at HSC3 and the loosers from A 1st vs E 2nd and
A 2nd vs E 1st will be at opposite sides of the loosers bracket

Whaaaat?
The only thing similar to MLG is that the winner of winner finals get 1:0 on the losers winner in the grand final. I think this works pretty good.

i guess all group winners got slot 1,3,5, ... and the runner ups got 2,4,6,...

Auctually the fixed group versus group is not a bad thing, except they should've put 1 player from each group at the opposite sides of the bracket seeing as now you will get Groupstage rematches in the Ro8 possibly.

tourny has been soooo sick cant wait for day 3!

Seriously? Rotti said yesterday that there will be no double elimination afterwards, mkay even better
Edit: Ah yeah, I can see the brackets now - well that's great, more matches for us

I think many people are underestimating XLord and Stephano big time.

Yea its bad. Should be like
Upper side:
A1 - E2
B1 - F2
C1 - G2
D1 - H2
Lower side:
D2 - H1
C2 - G1
B2 - F1
A2- E1
#1 and #2 from each group on opposite bracket parts.
|
If they want to do 1A vs 2E, 2A vs 1E they should put them on differents sides of the bracket -.- so people from the same group can't meet until the finals.

G1 1st vs G5 2nd
G5 1st vs G1 2nd
G2 2nd vs G6 2nd
G2 1st vs G6 1st
G3 1st vs G7 2nd
G7 1st vs G3 2nd
G4 1st vs G8 2nd
G8 1st vs G4 2nd
It looks like they made a mistake by placing G2 2nd vs G6 2nd (ToD vs Huk) and G2 1st vs G6 1st (Thorzain vs Stephano). Unless my listing of the groups is wrong and ToD finished above Thorzain shouldn't it be Huk vs Thorzain and ToD vs Stephano?
