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.

I thought MLG runs extended series, not double elim.

I'm guessing that the Code S seed will go to MMA right?, since MVP is already in Code S.
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

It's not extended series it's double elimination. MVP hadn't lost so it's only fair MMA be disadvantaged as he was demoted to the losers bracket.

so thats it? dont like the system


yeah agreed, shold just be a straight Bo7 finals, this was really anticlimactic

Then whats the point of the winners bracket? If you make a bo7, you would have to start MVP up games or something, but then everyone would be like WHAT THE FUKZORS FUCKIN EXTENDED SERIES SUCKZ ASS. if you start at 0-0 thats just bullshit for a double elimination tournament. Do you want 2 Bo7? Especially with a TvT?

T.T pretty bad final game.

Somewhere iEchoic is smiling btw, MVP won with his style pretty much.


hahahaha I love you, I was just thinking about this earlier. I still remember a post when iEchoic said you only need blue flame hellions, tanks, banshees, medivacs and vikings to win a TvT. Oh how he was right.

If MMA wins game 3 they go to an extended series bo7 with MMA leading 2-1.

If MVP wins game 3, he takes the tournament.

The casters are mistaken in that MMA needs to win a second bo3 to take the tournament. This has been confirmed by MLG officials.

This can't possibly be correct. I know MLG_Lee tweeted it but I don't really take that for much of anything. I doubt MLG suddenly changed the rules mid-season, especially considering it's been the same for years.

MLG_Lee's word /= fact


It is how the rest of the tournament works. They wouldn't be changing anything mid-season.


The Grand Final has been straight up two BoX if the player/teams didn't meet before as long as I have been watching MLG.

Anyway, it didn't matter because MVP is too good.

Every single finals has previously been extended series iirc so this has never actually happened
Life has won two GSLs and a Blizzard Cup. NOT three GSLs.

So if MMA wins this the scores are reset for a new bo3 right?

Yes.. if he loses though, MVP wins.

I think it becomes a 2-1 bo7 extended series if MMA wins this bo3

That would violate how double elim works though. What would be closest to some extended series and keep double elim, would be if MVP had started a BO7 with 2-0. Which would make the score 3-1 to MVP now, meaning one more game for MVP and he wins, while MMA must win 3 in a row now,

They never played before though.

It's not extended series, it's regular double elim rules for finals turned into a BO7.

In a normal double elim finals, if the winner bracket winner wins the first BO3, he wins the tournament. If he loses, they've both lost one BO3 so they've got to play another one to determine winner.
The only difference between two BO3 or one BO7 where WB player starts 2-0 is that with two separate BO3, the lower bracket player could win two BO3 2-1 and win the tournament, but if it was BO7 it would be over when WB player got his second win.

Yeah, it's only fair cause MMA has dropped a set and MVP hasn't. MVP is still in winners, MMA has a loss so is in "losers".

Lack of SCII double elim tourneys confusing people.
