Squirtle has now beaten GhostKing, MMA, MKP, Bomber and Alive. Only lost to Polt PvT.

I'm just gonna give top TvP to Polt/Jjakji. Squirtle looks amazing.

Squirtle fighting! For the first time this weekend I'm really feeling this crowd. Squirtle has to win just for the sake of this event being remembered by it's amazing finals. Plus can't take away terrans reason to cry.

wow TWO Bo5's This is fucking ridiculous for Squirtle.

tournaments NEED to get rid of these fucking retarded extended series and just stick with the normal Ro32 SINGLE elimination format.


??

Double elimination is extremely standard?

Yeah, but I think what he's getting at is that the fairness of giving the WB winner an advantage should be reconsidered because it makes for a poor finals. Having both players start off fresh and having only one bo5 would make for a better final than two bo5, even though it is less 'fair'.


It's a lot less fair and I don't think that it's worth making that kind of sacrifice for a more even final. This is a crux of double elimination, but you can't just give everyone a shot at double elimination except for the player who performed the best in the tournament.

If you don't want the double Bo5 finals then I'm fine with single elimination tournaments but I absolutely do not agree with removing double elimination at the last minute just to force a closer final.


the advantage is that you played a dozen less games and makes the finals more interesting.


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.

That's a decision every tournament needs to make for itself, right? Whether or not upholding the fairness of double elimination is more important than the potential of a terrible final


how would single elimination make these games anymore exciting? double elimination has just as much chance for a boring and/or exciting finals.


as i was saying?????????

Dat Colossus.


Liquid'Hero's immortal Immortal w/ 49 kills 2 weeks ago comes to mind.

49 kill immortal? Missed that... nice I just remember some colossus that the casters named Bill or somesuch a month or two ago with 130+ kills


seriously, look for a vod of Hero's game, i think it is also IPL. one of the best Immortal + Warp prism micro i've ever seen. Kinda inspirational: http://www.reddit.com/r/starcraft/comments/rn8ix/ipl_toc_liquid_hero_sickest_micro/

Thanks for the link that was pretty sick

Wow, GJ Squirtle! However, possibly 5 more games... I've been watching for 12 hours. I think one Bo5 should be enough, I don't care if they've already played once.
If all you're offering is Dos Equis, I will stay thirsty thank you very much.

Squirtle has officially evolved right before our eyes. Can't believe alive couldn't manage to win that final game. Has to be demoralized right now.
