The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance

Basically just be respectful. Aside from that, enjoy the games, make sure you bring an umbrella and have some delicious waffles! (#)

Yeah i wonder how they will handle that 3 way tie.

It's overall games record. If it's all tied then they go by h2h


They all beat eachother, you can't do h2h


This.

so triple threat sudden death match?


5. Pool Play Ranking (1st-6th) will be determined using each Player’s Record of Matches won and lost. Ties will be broken using the following Tiebreakers in this order: Head to Head (Match Winning Percentage using only Matches between the tied Players), Games Won Percentage (All Pool Play Matches), and Seed. If there is a tie involving more than two Players and one of the Tiebreakers resolves the tie for a Player(s), but leaves at least two Players tied, resolution of the tie(s) that still exists will start over with Head to Head. If Head to Head or Games Won Percentage is used to break a tie, the higher number will win the Tiebreaker. If Seed is used to break a tie, the lower number will win the Tiebreaker.

As I feared, MLG has another baaad rule. Ties decided by seed, so fair.

that is only the last resort. what would be a better way to decide?

Tiebreaker games.

didnt they do that at a tournament and the games went well into the a.m. idra was super happy about it because he was playing the winner.

It's a rock-paper-scissors H2H with the same overall game record for the 3 players. That's why people are talking about it


No guys remember? Its a coin flip

Actually MLG managed to choose a tiebreaker that is arguably even more retarded. The guy with the lowest seed points wins >_<

Not lowest seed points, but lowest seed. Naniwa has most ranking points and is seeded 1st so he'll be 2nd. Still retarded way to break the tie-breaker though, they should replay. I feel even coin flip would be more fair actually...

So Naniwa gets 2nd then?

4th. It says the lower wins WTF?!

This is reatrded even by MLG rules standard. (and the bar is set low as it is)



Naniwa is the lowest seed (closest to 1).
Ah, I though they meant amount of points. Still retarded. Just make them play it out untill there is a winner.

Texas hold'em.


FFA still sounds like a better idea, people watching would get a huge kick out of it.

Well what does that tell you about the matchup :/

I'd say the matchup just needs to be figured out, because Zergs were whining for so long about PvZ being impossible, and I don't think the buffs Zergs received were responsible for the huge reversal in the matchup. If you were to ask me straight after I've lost a PvZ then I would probably say Zerg imba .

I don't know...... it doesn't make sense but technically if you look at it from another angle it does. The guy with the lowest "Vegas Odds" did the best against better opposition. Therefore out of the 3, he performed the best and deserves to move on. Wierd system definitely, retarded? Bit overblown I'd say.

Seed 1 is the most important seed but it is lower than 2. So as far as that goes it makes sense. Of course deciding by seed is completely unfair.
