I don't think many viewers know the importance of these matches, I've been watching pretty regularly and didn't know until I read the thread and looked it up. Is there any advantage for finishing first in your division compared to getting into the wildcards bracket and going into the playoff bracket? if you can be knocked out in one bo5 after going 7-1 in the regular season to someone who finished in the middle of the group that seems like a silly system. | ||

I think they definitely waited too long to announce the new format, idk when they decided it though. | ||

Considering they've always had Ro16 offline and 16 people in what they call the "final" before, I got confused at least. The term playoff was reserved for the people who finish 10th-30th in the league afaik. They play a "playoff" to determine slot 11-15 on the "final". So when I saw this being a "playoff" I wondered why they werent already qualified for the final. But I get it now. This is actually Ro16 in the final and only Ro8 and the rest is offline. I also had no idea what the OP was talking about. A lot is at stake. They should have titled this NASL 3 sweet 16 and this should be treated like a major event. | ||

I bought a season ticket mostly just to support the NASL because it's clear the people behind it put a lot of time and effort into it. I hope they're doing OK financially. Yeah I suppose so, I was expecting ro16 to be played offline like previous NASL finals, this is quite shocking to me. After all the work these guys put in for the entire season to finish 7-1 or whatever they can end up not even going to the finals based on one series. I don't think the ro16 should be played online but if their budget doesn't allow it I guess that's how it has to be. At least It's bo5 so the chance of an upset is pretty low. | ||
