GOM used this format for an entire year, but it originated from OGN. I think Bo1 is fine in BW, because it's not as random as SC2 can be. Bo1 is not that great for SC2 as it was for BW. | ||

Dual Tournament format is used in OSL and MSL long time ago before GOM used it, lol. And maybe I exagerated with 50% luck, but Bo1 Groups is much Luck-based in SC2 that in BW. | ||

Running this format in a complete different game. There is a good reason why GOM moved away from BO1s entirely. | ||

I predict players getting cheesed out and lots of whining/bans to follow. | ||

Bo1s in SC2 is absolutely horrible. Yes, looked at versus any one player it is a Bo1..but in the overall context every player is essentially playing a Bo3, albeit possibly against varying players from their group. | ||

A TV channel get more viewers that a internet stream. But I guess they will get english casters soon (I personally dont care, If casters are not Artosis/Tastelees I prefer korean casters to the other ones). | ||
