Cant believe theres so much hate in these threads while we're so blessed with a wonderful event, with wonderful games. Last warning, whine and insult the players or commentators? See you.

It's not an extended series. If mvp were to lose the first bo3 he would "drop" to the loser's bracket and mma and mvp would have to do another bo3.

It needs to be as anticlimactic as possible. :D

All MLG finals will always be either extended series, or 2 bo3s.

I'm just quoting this because you're the first person I've seen on TL that actually knows how to spell anticlimactic when using it. Amazing.

How is this extended series.


?? You mean you think that the finals are bo3?

Hope MVP takes it, he's so solid. I'm not a fan of the map test bug, seems so cluttered..


This is a Bo3, think of it this way.

When you lose in winners you get knocked into the lower bracket, because MVP is a boss and has not dropped a set yet he has not been placed into losers so its almost unfair for him to not have that advantage that double elim has. So if he wins those 2 games he just wins it, if he loses those two games then he is knocked down into losers to face MMA for another Bo3
Life has won two GSLs and a Blizzard Cup. NOT three GSLs.

He has to win the next two then it becomes an extended series BO7 with MMA up 2-1


No, this is incorrect. That was the way that matches were played between opponents who had already met up previously along in the brackets.

MVP needs to win one Bo3 because he's coming from the winner's bracket.

MMA needs to win two Bo3s because he's coming from the loser's bracket.

Jesus christ so many people bitching about a system that is actually totally fair.

How would you have organized it? With the person who hasn't dropped a set all tournament long getting penalized by the person who got an opportunity to lose a set and come back?

People have been discussing the double elim format for eternity here, so for those who're still asking, please just read back, it's getting kinda annoying quite frankly.

Posting this until people understand the finals format.....

MMA doesn't have to win 2 bo3s. He needs to win 1 bo3 first. Then he starts the extended series (bo7) with the lead he got from the bo3.

MVP needs to either win the first bo3 or then win the extended series bo7 while behind.


quoting so people read and understand.

Standard Double elim is the winner bracket player has to win one BO3 the Loser bracket Player has to win 2 BO3s

MLG makes it so that you have to win one BO3 as the winners bracket player and one Bo3 then an extended BO7 with the score of the previous Bo3.

Assuming MVP Wins this Bo# then Extended Series would never come into Effect

I cringe whenever I hear that MVP is a 2 time GSL Code-S champion lol. It's 1 Code-S, 1 Super Tournament!

His one and only accomplishment in BW; taking a game off Flash! ^__^ He got crushed so hard in the following 3 games though.


according to Liquidpedia MVP is the highest rank A scbw player to transfer into sc2.

That went better than I expected for MMA, MVP didn't handle the drops quite as well as I would have expected. Still don't think this build is a good idea though, mech is king right now.
