EPTWell, that's what happens when you go the same FE build every game.

No enthusiasm, very monotone = boring to watch. C'mon jp, you can do better! Enjoying the series so far, I think MVP will take this. | ||

Has nothing to do with Extended Series in this case. It is so that as MVP came from loser bracket MMA is 1-0 in sets(now 1-1) they now play an extended series for the last set. | ||

I think the goal is to develop interesting storylines for the first day(s) of providence in the actual MLG providence tournament. Offer a few guys an extra incentive to show up, I mean Nestea/MVP in the open bracket is obviously big for MLG. Due to providence not having pool play, a lot of rounds have to be played before the 'seeded' big players are shown. If you only have medium-level foreigner vs. medium level foreigner in the early rounds I think it gets tedious really fast. This ensures at least a couple 'favourites' that people will be wanting to see. I know I'm a lot more hyped for MLG knowing we're getting MVP/Nestea in the open bracket at least. Altho having an MLG champion not being seeded is kind of debatable ;p. | ||

Hope you find it useful too.Ha, I'll watch that, I always liked those fast siege push, they seem very powerful in TvT, thanks for the info. | ||

I do agree that in a normal double elimination 2x Bo3 is what MVP has to win. It works just like a normal double elim. But instead of 2 Bo3, MVP has to win a Bo7. Now, since it's in an extended series, MMA has to win 4 games total, not 2 anymore, because he lost the first two. | ||

I had no idea this was the way it is. Agree with everyone who says it's pretty messed up, but whatever. If you looked at this from a straight up bo7 series MMA would still have had an advantage going into it. | ||

They never played each other in the winners bracket so there's no series for it to be extended from >< | ||
