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.

ok stop whining about the format. Sure I can agree that the version of extended series where you start behind in a bo7 is pretty bad but this one when you are forced to win 2 bo3 is actually nothing but fair. every player in this tournament can loose one set and still get a second chance.. it would make little sence to me having that being different for the one player unbeaten to the final. I agree that it removes atleast some exitement but hey, what do you do. maybe it would be better with a open bracket that gets you into a more normal tourney with 32 players playing bo5s and a bo7 final but that would most likely be a little bit to much to ask for since it probably would take alot more time. the format might not be pleasing for the crowd in every sense but it is atleast fair.

Please guys... Leenock failed an all-in.
Naniwa didn't win this game, Leenock lost it.

Yeah if I'm to believe people like you, nani hasn't won a single game this weekend. The best players in the world just either hate themselves and don't want to win 50k or love naniwa.

At this point in the game, would IdrA GG? Serious question, because at this point it seems whatever 2 base push Naniwa hits will kill Leenock...

So unfair format


Format is fine

A final for 50k, the culmination of a year of tournaments could be decided in 2 games.

Format blows.


I fail to see how the format blows considering Leenock lost a best of 3 and got sent down to loser's bracket, Naniwa has stayed in the open bracket without dropping a set. Wouldn't it then be unfair for Naniwa if he doesnt get a second chance when Leenock does?

Nani has his natural nexi up while leenock's is only 1/4 done...

Forge, gateway, core, 2 pylons and a canon around naniwas natural.

So people usually always insist on double elimination in an important tournament but don't want to deal with Winner Brackets advantage?

The advantage that Naniwa is having right now has very little to do with extended series. Sure it's a bit weird but alternatively Leenock has to win 2 Bo3 while Naniwa only 1. Same deal.



Some tournaments have a less extreme advantage for the Winner's Bracket Winner.
i.e. The finals format becomes Bo7 with 1 game advantage to the winner, regardless or extended brackets etc.

One is probably more "fair", the other seems to be a much better spectator experience. It's a choice MLG need to make in their format shake up (so far all they have done is import rules/brackets from their Halo days).

LEENOCK! D=

You always do roach timings / all-ins and then promptly lose. Every single freaking time! D=

Leenock needs to learn ZvP from someone, so frustrating.
