Please stop the tournament comparison discussion. Especially regarding players their runs (Stephano seems to be the current topic). Stay on topic and stick to the games. Consequences will be met out to further derailment. In addition leave the usual out of this topic: -Balance complaints -Map complaints -Stream complaints -Caster/player bashing -Off topic discussions Logically continue this list with things that are obviously frowned upon. Enjoy the free and wonderful event with loads of games and coverage! | ||

Really sloppy play in general, he does it a ton better on stream. since he was behind by like 5-10 workers, less production, less tech, only 2 base vs 2 base. If he had gotten into the main and killed a lot more probes, finished off the nexus in the natural, unpowered or denied the voidray from finishing. He'd have a chance. Also I think sheth had 1 queen which would die to that voidray pretty quick. | ||

The problem isn't players throwing the game away, the problem is the tournament bracket. The current setup allows for games where 1 side doesn't have much to gain or lose, giving the player less motivation to play his best. Switch to the gsl style group play and this wouldn't be a problem. | ||

It's not bad. Just less exciting than tie-breakers  . | ||

My only complaint is that when there is a tie in points (won maps and h2h results don't matter) The 2 players play a Bo1 to see who goes to the next round. 3way tie would be a bit more tricky tho | ||
