I think this absolutely proves that there should be no bo1 in a tournament to see who is better. I mean 3-0 and than 3-3 and than the most balanced game 7 to see who is better is clearly an up and down battle and you need more games to decide the better player. That's why I have a bitter taste about the group stage in the Blizzard Cup.

I agree that Bo1 is a bad idea, but actually if they had done a Bo1 here MMA would still have won, no?

Better proof would be Naniwa vs Thorzain, or Idra vs MC at MLG Anaheim.

Okay.

That was the best thing.
I have ever seen.
DRG won my heart. I was of firm conviction that no zerg can win on shakuras, and DRG put up the best fight ever.
MMA, I love you as a terran sniper only. Stay away from my leenock and DRG.

i fell asleep after MMA was up 3-0 T.T
I am no longer someone who can call himself a true fan, staying up until 5am
Forgive me, as punishment I will buy cases and cases of monster and drink them in preparation for the next big event.
Awards were great though!
I hope I can redeem myself

You can be :D
Game 1-6 were good but far from Jjakji-Leenock finals, but the last game will be remembered forever. It's the new best game ever, I think I can say that without overhyping it. I was shacking and my heart was at 150 bpm during it.

Great series — I really wish they'd take Shakuras out of the map pool though!

MMA would've won in a bo1, bo3, bo5 and bo7 anyway. And do you not agree that MMA played better than DRG? In addition do you really believe that Polt, MMA, MVP, Leenock, MC, DRG were not the better players and would've advanced regardless of bo1 or bo3?
boX > 1 is not a guarantee that the better player wins, it only becomes more LIKELY that the better player advances. For instance Goody beat Stephano at battle of Berlin 2-1 a month or so ago

While I agree over the course of the series DRG was worse in the first three games than MMA was in the next three, MMA barely won a map 7 that no Terran should ever lose once they're on three safe bases.
