IMHO you are giving him not enough credit. He is obviously very tired now. aLive could just watch and he relaxed while he saw everything Squirtle did. | ||

But these guys aren't know to give awe-inspiring performances. It's also TvP anways. :/ I've seen some amazing TvP games this weekend, but this series is pretty bleh atm. | ||

I agree that this system is "fairer", but IMO a grand finals shouldn't be subject to these things, it should be on equal grounds. Clean slate for GF. Agree. I understand the logic behind the double elimination, it just doesn't make the final as exciting. Every game should matter in the final. | ||

In my opinion as the spectator, more games=better  But I can accept a lot of arguments for otherwise. | ||

Imagine for a moment that Nestea had been the one to advance from the lower backet and goes on to defeat alive in the first set of the finals 3-2. That would make their total championship bracket record tied at 5-5 but Nestea wins because he won the series that mattered? If you're going to do double elimination you do double elimination. That's how rules work. | ||

The disadvantage is that it's not fucking fair to the winner's bracket finalist who only gets to drop one series while everyone else in the tournament gets to drop two. That's a pretty big fucking disadvantage. If it wasn't double elimination, Alive would have potentially won already. | ||

Squirtle had practiced aggressively for both the GSTL finals and this tournament. In other words, he clearly has the endurance to play two sets. Especially, when Korean pros play 8-10 hours on average. Side note: If this was a foreigner vs a korean (squirtle) in the finals and he was down 0-2 the excuse would be that he's "jetlagged" lmao. | ||
