Well, you can argue whether it makes sense with StarCraft or esports in general that 5:4 is better than 4:3 but I still think that it has always been the case like that if mapscore was the thing that counted. | ||

Please read what nazgul says, the rule awards offensive play, he's totally right about that, thats why Starcraft should not have the same rule as Soccer. | ||

Did you read his post or just quote it  The motivation behind the rule doesn't apply to SC, winning with 5-4 mapscore vs. 4-3 does not reward offensive play or anything like that. | ||
