Nothing could possibly be worse than Nestea vs Inca.

Why all the hate for the extended series?? Its fine if you ask me, especially with the new format so that there is no extended series in the final. Taeja can still afford to lose the first Bo3, and to win an extended series you still have to win four games total. MLG has been doing this since the Halo 2 days at least.

Yes. It's royalty-free music.
They should just find some new good amateur artists.

And having to play less games total. That is not an advantage. Its not? Showing builds, spending energy, not getting to watch your opponents games/builds/playstyles etc. Getting more chances to win an equal amount of games is not an advantage. What are you talking about? Of course playing less games is an advantage. Not as fatigued/less chance of being eliminated. You don't have less chance to be eliminated. Alicia played less series then oz and if it wouldn't go to an extended series then both would have lost 1 series and oz still advances.

If he had not dropped a game to Oz earlier, he would have a 2-0 advantage, which means he only has to win 2 games across the entire series and his opponent has to win 4. Compare to Taeja, who could lose the first series 2-1, and then has to win 2 games in the next Bo3 to advance, for 3 total. Best advantage goes to person with extended series. that has nothing to do with coming from the winners bracket.....
If you come from the winners bracket against someone who you haven't played against, you get a second Bo3 if you lose the first.
If you play against someone who you've already played against, you have to win 2 games in a Bo3. You don't get an additional advantage because that advantage is already better than just the winners bracket one.
