If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. And don't start the USA USA USA!!! stuff.

i think it comes from football, its like 50 goals to 20 is better than 40 to 10 because 50 goals are more entertainment
thats how its usually done


If you ever reach 50 goals to 20 in 1.5 hours you must play some CRAZY football.

what about in a season?

5 map wins is more than 4?


that makes sense for soccer, because you want to encourage offensive play, but it doesn't make sense for mapscore.

so it's gonna be dima +3 first, then tie between grubby and sound => head to head => grubby advances as second

100% this

This rule is good for soccer but is absolutely not relevant for StarCraft. A player is not more or less offensive because of what mapscore he had. Either it is a tie or 4-3 is better because it is a higher win percentage.

Exactly, in most tournaments, the players who loses less maps advances in case of a score like this. It's not about who wins most maps.


Erm what? What SC tournaments have used this rules? +/- on maps makes the most sense to me.

What? I really don't like this. It's not about being +1 or whatever, 5-4 is a better percentage than 4-3. I really think Sound should be through, as much as I wish Grubby was.

There are only 2 possible rulesets, either direct encounter counts first or mapscore counts first. Either way Grubby is out. What they are saying there is definitely wrong.

Is 4-3 better than 5-4 or both are equal on +1 but Grubby wins because of the head-to-head?

alright they corrected it!

ace game between grubby and sound --> winner advances

dimaga is through--> if sound wins dima is second in group --> if grubby wins dima would be 1st in the group!

gogo grubby!

this must be something new, i remember former HSC where mapscore was > head to head


I think it is but they calculate mapscore into a single number, so 5-3 is +2, 1-4 is -3.

no they are equal but as grubby would had won over Sound he would advance.

no.

4/3 = 1.33333333
5/4 = 1.25

4:3 is the better win percentage

Please grubby win. You are such an awesome guy and a hard worker. I would like nothing more than for you to advance.

nope, you're basing this on soccer rules with goals which has nothing to do with this. the motivation behind that rule for soccer does not apply to starcraft thus the rule should never exist in our scene.
