Some people talking about "next bo9"... can someone explain why there is one?

For the 893280238425th time, because Liquid is coming from the Lower Bracket (it's a Double Elimination tournament and IM has not lost any series yet), they have to win against IM in the first series to reset it to a final Bo9 in the Grand Final.

I hate this format for that exact reason, the punishment from coming from the Loser's Bracket should be an additional Ace Match or just playing more matches to get to the finals, imho. This could negate all the hard work and potential all-kill of Taeja.

This whole TAC seems like a repeat of the first one.

Foreign team (mouz, liquid) getting carried by their terran (thorzain, taeja), terran wins first bo9 against IM in the finals.

Though TaeJa hasn't won yet ... but most likely will

Morning all. Just caught the end of the Nestea v Taeja game. Any comment on the other games?

Also, I don't get the format. Why are we going into another bo9 if Taeja wins?

Oh, and, what is it with these long ad breaks?

Edit/ Oh, I see, coming from the LB means another bo9 (rather similar to MLG rules). Got it.

IM should have brought MC and MVP :/...

I'd rather Mvp get his health back on track but MC would have been nice


Mvp's health issues and he probaly wants to rest and get ready for WCS this week and MC probably wanting to stay in Korea to practice for WCS.

Actually, I like the downtime. It lets the all-killer get calm and ready for the next game. And it's fair that way.

Subjective. Some people perform worst coz there's less momentum.


I guess, but like any long exam/performance/sport, you should get breaks in between matches/sections

TaeJa is.... The Red Sniper!

Awesome. Great job looking out for your team guys, this was a solid move.

Also, so much fucking whine in this thread.


And it doesn't get better with age, either.

No, it really doesn't. It just grows with age

Watch LG finance a robot with the mind of Mvp to suddenly burst from the ceiling and defeat TaeJa.

He is better


You sly fox you

I'm wondering what IM is going to do differently in the second Bo9, because they threw everything at Taeja already and I can't see Yoda almost RAKing Liquid. Maybe IM will just hope Taeja gets tired? lol.


Second best of 9 !?!?!?

so atleast 5 games... 30 minutes between game...


If anyone's watching this late at night... just go to sleep and when you wake up in the morning, the second best of 9 will be half over.

Keep in mind guys the new player has to warm up. That helps explain the long commercials.

I wish

Taeja nearly all kills in the second set, MVP crashes in on a battlecruiser and reverse all kills.


Sadly MVP is not here.

NesTea could teleport him if they wanted to.


It's too bad NesTea became a selfless-God lately... He is allowing other players to win GSL's and stuffs! So kind of him, but I miss the old selfish-God NesTea.
