Violet has chosen to play @coL_Heart in tomorrow's brackets. #MLG

Which means violet vs heart and drg vs mc. MKP will likely pick the winner of violet vs heart, leaving ganzi to play the winner of drg vs mc.

Also, the bromance triangle between MKP/MC/Parting this MLG has been absolutely adorable.

MLG dropped the ball with their rules.

It should go match record (all three are 3-4), winning percentage (Heart is no longer tied), then head to head/match record between the tied players.

Not this confusing nonsense.


Heart would be eliminated from the Tiebreaker as soon as he goes ahead of the others. But the thing is in this case Heart breaks his tie alongside DRG who also tiebreaks parting at the same time. If it was heart with most wins, then DRG/Parting were both with the same w/l record amongst the three then what you said would work.

No with the way I posted Heart and Parting advance.

Heart had most wins (10-11 compared to 9-12 of Parting and DRG) of the three. Then it comes down to H2H between Parting and DRG. Parting won against DRG so he'd advance.

Yea but there are stupid rules that you can point out to make the next time smoother. And the fact that MLG can't understand their own rules makes it sad for the viewer.

unfortunate but if you went to advance in MLG you really shouldn't be getting 3-0ed by heart

For those that want to share: Parting vs Violet, game 3. Arguably the best PvZ of the tournament.

heart had a better score 10-11 vs 9-12 and 9-12 so he should be in and then for the last spot parting beat drg head to head So he should be in the other way is retarded and seems to just be the way to make the Beloved drg get to keep playing

It's funny that they made everyone play all 3 matches since, for example, the parting vs MC game 3 was irrelevant in deciding who went through. Hell, DRG could have lost to MKP and Ganzi 3-0 instead of 2-1 and still went through with map score of 7-14


Maybe but you can't know that for sure. For instance, when Heart was leading 2-0 against Parting, it turns out the 3rd game was the game that would decide the fate of both players (If I'm right and I am)

Edit: Ninajed just above :D


I see, but then that kind of makes things worse imo, as it gave some games a lot more relevance than others. Like how that 3rd game was a deciding factor, but DRG's 3rd game against MKP and Partings 3rd game against MC were pointless.


Not really, because the players can't know for sure that those games will be pointless. So you have to play your best every game. With this format, it's almost guaranteed that some 3rd game will be important


I don't quite follow, if it was total map score first, then all 3rd games would be important. If the rules were clear beforehand to the players they wouldn't have had to try at all in there final games against MKP and MC - since they would have known they wouldnt be relevant.

No the rules were there prior to this happening so it wasn't just a way to keep DRG playing. Unless MLG can see the future.

I dont feel they should have played another set of matchs, they just played 7Xbo3, thats enough sc2 for that stage. They needed to make a system and they did it pretty fairly imo. sucks for parting but its his own fault for not doing better! Anyways hes good enough to bounce back, i dont feel to sorry for him hes got it good!

Yeah, it's really unfortunate that the MLG staff decided to abuse time travel in order to retroactively make the rules beneficial for DRG. Damn them!

Rules are rules. They were made before the event. You can't change them because it makes sense to you seing the match results.

And by the way, the system MLG used is very similar to the NFL tie-breaking system. In ties within your division, the rules are the exact same as those here.

The rules were released before hand, so no.
