Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly:

- NO Balance Whine.
- NO Player Bashing.
- NO Caster Bashing.
- NO BM whatsoever.

Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment.

Leenok is blowing my mind today. I don't remember him being this good when I've seen him on the GSL.

He doesn't know what he's talking about. It's two separate BO3's if Leenock wins


No it is not. http://pro.majorleaguegaming.com/competitions/25#event_54_competition_format


What? You linked something that says exactly if Leenock is in the finals there are 2 BO3s.


"If the Player who came from the Championship Bracket Losers Bracket wins the initial Match, the Match will expand to a Best of 7, include the initial Match, and pick up where that Match left off. For example, if the Championship Bracket Losers Bracket Player beat the Championship Bracket Winners Bracket Player 2 Games to 0 in the initial Match, the Best of 7 will resume with Game 3 and the Championship Bracket Losers Bracket Player leading 2 Games to 0. "

This is NOT two Bo3's. This is a Bo3 that can expand into a Bo7.



So if DRG wins, Naniwa has a better chance to win the tournament, If Lennock wins he has a code S spot.

Yes, but the extra chance is just based on 1 more game.

Only 750 more and like I said earlier he doesn't need the money and he only cares about winning.

The difference between 1 spot means very little to him.

$750 is more money than he's won at most MLG events this season.

And it's irrelevant because players like him and huk make most of their money off their contracts.


It is getting paid $750 to win 2 games. There really is no excuse to not play that - I don't care who you are. No pro player is at the point where they should turn that down.


Seems that should be a decision left to him and his management.

yeah this is kind of ridiculous, he should be able to freely pick which matches he decide to play -_-

would have loved to see haypro vs idra though, if they would have even casted it


They never cast the consolation matches... so I have no idea why everyone is up in arms. If he doesn't want to potentially win the money leave him alone cause it doesn't affect what you get to see at all.


I think everyone is missing the point. Idra is essentially saying 30-40 minutes isn't worth $750 dollars to him. It's his job to play video games. He signed up for MLG Providence, is scheduled to play and is choosing not to.

That's pretty spoiled if you ask me. But I guess it's not a surprise, considering he asks for $300+ per hour of coaching.

He's free to play or not play in whatever games his team will let him, but that doesn't mean refusing to play isn't ungrateful/spoiled.


Again, isn't this a decision that should be left to he player and his management?


How is that an appropriate response? Of course it's his and his teams decision, but I see nothing wrong with feeling it's ungrateful, bad mannered, and acting spoiled. People are of course free to disagree. I have my opinion, others have theirs. I would think most people would be slightly bothered by someone implying $750 for an hour isn't worth their time, but hey, everyone's different.

How is it spoiled anyway? He can afford not to play it, and it's none of our business. The only person he has to thank for affording not to play that game is himself.

1. If the Players scheduled to play each other in the Finals have not yet played against each other in the Event, an initial Match must be played. (BO3)

2. If the Player who came from the Championship Bracket Winners Bracket wins the initial Match, they will win the Event.

3. If the Player who came from the Championship Bracket Losers Bracket wins the initial Match, the Match will expand to a Best of 7, include the initial Match, and pick up where that Match left off.

So what does this mean? If Naniwa wins 2 out of 3 first games he has won.

If Leenock wins 2 out of 3 first games it is from then a normal BO7 (First to 4 wins) with Leenock in the lead by two games.
So Naniwa has an advantage at first, but if he does not take it early on, he is actually behind but still has a shot at it.

Kind of an interesting system in my opinion

Leenock is in the Ro8 in Code S...

GOGO Leenock! You can do it! :D
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. ♞

Leenock already has a Code S spot guaranteed for next season as he is in the Ro8 of Code S this season as the only zerg.

He was naming consequences for Naniwa. If Leenock wins Naniwa gets his code S spot. Pronoun confusion
