I have to say: this analytical commentator is really good imo.

Surely it must be a Bo3 + Bo5 since Stephano only won 1x Bo3 against Polt already...

because it's grand final so stephano would need to win a BO5. the second BO5 is to make up for the fact that stephano has not had a loss yet.

Yer, but normally it's kind of "you must be put down in loser bracket before you are on equal terms with the one coming from the loser bracket". Polt has only lost 1x Bo3, if he looses to Stephano the first Bo5, he has only lost 1x Bo3 and 1x Bo5 compared to, for him to win, Stephano has to loose 2x Bo5. It gives an advantage to the winner bracket... winner, which although I'm not totally against, just isn't normally like that.


No, it's literally ALWAYS like that.

Well I can't really find an example other than MLG in a similar spot, since I don't know double elimination which aren't just a Bo1 with a possible 2nd Bo1, but if we compare to MLG, they just always have Bo3(which although sucks, still makes it so the winner doesn't come with an advantage other than just still havent lost a series). My point is merely that Bo3 != Bo5, so basically now Stephano has to loose more than Polt has to, to end up 2nd(this all assuming Polt wins obv).



IMO the length of the series is irrelevant. Stop thinking of it as BO3, BO5, etc. And know that they EACH have to win two series against each other, I don't see an imbalance/advantage.


the winner of the winners brackets finals has to win 5 games in total, the losers' bracket finalist has to win at least 6 games, at most 7 games. the winners' bracket finalist has to win 1-2 less game to win the tournament. that's the advantage.


They both have to win two series'. You're almost advocating extended series.


i'm not advocating anything, just explaining. the losers' bracket winner has to win more games than the winner bracket winner. that's not an advantage to you?


In a DE tournament, everyone has 2 lives, doesn't matter if there's an advantage or disadvantage or not. In fact, people who lose early should be grateful because in a SE tournament they'd be out of the tournament.


yeah everyone knows that, admiral apparent. still don't pretend that there is no advantage because there is, even if you refuse to see it

polt having huge marine tank army, sleep lings few festors and some broods. polt not rly having an answer to broods however with multi pronged attacks he takes out multiple hatcheries of sleep. food is very even. now it's 4base vs 4base if polt deals with broods it's game over for sleep

Polt needs to leave some marines and Thor there. Those mutas are really hampering his production of marines, Reactors take awhile to reconstruct.

I just don't understand how Polt is able to walk around the map like that... I just die when I do stuff like that :/

For LR: While greater spire is morphing/broods are coming out, polt goes and kills sleeps 4th. Sleep pushes him back temporarily, but polt goes and kills 2 new expansions with rogue rine+medivac+tank squads, and ends up by killing his 3rd. Meanwhile polts econ is fine and he's on 3 bases for most the time and takes a 4th. Polt seems to be in awesome position, though he doesn't seem to have an army to engage the blords that are currently camping the normal 4th of sleep.
