yea i think the only thing that may be stopping him from getting a code s seed next season is that he is not that popular to many foreigner fans. Go Alicia!!!

Go watch Inca vs Rain from, I think, the U&Ds after GSL Jan 2011. It was back when Rain was still on TSL and he was a joke.
More bad game goodness: Idra vs Chickencombo from open season 2 (right?) where ChickenCombo tries to battlecruiser rush him on Scrap Station.
Genius vs QXC in TSL3 was bad in a less hilarious way.
Trying to think of more.
Edit: Idra vs Check on jungle basin was pretty funny; ball of roaches chasing another smaller ball of roaches for several laps around the center bases.

About the extended series
The way I see is that it makes so you cant be eliminated with a positive or even score against the guy who eliminated you

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. So you just lose the winner bracket advantage? No, you're not given one because you already have a BETTER advantage. Win 2 games at ANY time and you win. The winner bracket advantage may require you to win 3 games. You still lose the winner bracket advantage.
Your statement is absolutely meaningless. It's like saying getting a 120 euro prize instead of a 100 dollar prize sucks because you lose your 100 dollar prize.

alicia got lucky avoiding stephano No it's fair. Everyone had an equal chance to randomly have a bracket which avoided Stephano, therefore its fair. People had seeds, in your scenario it would only be fair if there were an unlimited amount of tournaments.

PvP isnt about coinflips.
Seriously, it isn't. Its about strategy.

Clearly all tournaments that aren't full-lineup round robin are shit. Better go tell the sponsors!

Ah, shame as I do like Oz, but I take heart that he's looking back to some kind of shape. Holy hell that was some fine PvZ

People said the same about when MKP played Alicia at MLG Spring Championships and we all know how that turned out
