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! (#)

Well, it really doesn't make sense. They're both at 4-1, but Select with 8-2 and DRG with 8-3. So it couldn't be a tie. I think it's pretty silly the fact that individual matches doesn't make a difference. But it's the system...

MLG system works fine. So far, 3 out of 3 (the 4th being TLO, yet to play vs DeMuslim) 6th place in pool beat their opponent coming from the open loser's bracket.

Edit: ok so while I was typing that Demuslim won game 1, but still :D


You just described the exact reason why people think MLG's system sucks.


People from open bracket can't beat people from pool play, what's the problem?


Yeah except champs like iNControl losing to a random like TriMaster.

And 1 series means nothing, DeMuslim is 100x better than iNControl, Machine, Haypro, TLO. Those four players really REALLY need to get kicked from pool play. It's getting pathetic.

Edit. Moonan is a maybe. Although he'd probably always make it through open bracket.

Machine actually seems to be on the rise, he has been doin pretty well in comparison to his old form. Maybe hes completing the Idra life swap, he'll shave his beard and move to Korea.

There will always be a new code S player. If the winner is already Code S, a previous matches winner will be awarded Code S. Happened in the last MLG where the MMA/Boxer match was for the code S spot because MVP was already Code S.

It mmakes perfect sense. Both players are 4-1. Drg beat select. Drg gets first. Head to head matters more than individual games.

I guarantee multiple people in pool play wouldn't make it through open bracket

haypro deserves to be in pool play.


Hmm I'll give you that. He is probably better than the open bracket players and the other 3 mentioned. Still though.

Nope, goes on head to head instead of games won/lost.

Kinda a stupid rule imo that not many tournaments at least in Europe have but MLG do love their stupid rules.

Extended series... Determining 3 way ties by seeds... etc etc...

I don't see why it should matter more when the whole point of group play is to measure overall performance rather than head-to-head.

either way though it's not nearly as big a deal as extended series.

When players are relatively even head to head matters more because its a direct test of their skill against each other.

How the hell doesn't it make sense? DRG beat Select. It's as simple as that. Why can't people grasp the concept of head to head victories?

So its okay if you lose more than someone else so long as you've beaten him before?
