Oh shit its not round robin.. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/2012_MLG_Pro_Circuit/Fall/Championship Well no comment but Soulkey group c, Soo group D w/Scarlett Soulkey vs Revival, then potentially Taeja. And I wanted Soo to creep out Terrans but he's on the Protoss side of group D. | ||

Or did the the guys at liquidpedia make a mistake finally? | ||

Nah the last MLG had a bad format b/c the highest seeds played the Open bracket winners (which are theoretically the lower seeds). Then the mid/low seeds were supposed to play the Kespa players (to give the kespa players advantage) but kespa ended up not showing up, so those mid seeds got easy matches, whereas the high seeds had tougher matches b/c the Open bracket winners are actually stronger.. This time the format is ... OK Maybe axslav wont read this, but mlg does, but whatever, mlg is "genius" with their tourneys. this is to eliminate extended series from occurring, so this is even more convoluted.. whatever im over it now. just no one else gets it really. unless ur hardcore. In actuality, this format is not so bad and getting better, but they should make sure the seeding is correct. | ||

We were never on an anti-elephant campaign. We were reasonable when 70% of the SC2 Community was on a hype-bandwaggon. There's a huge difference in between. We always said Kespa players would to well, that they just needed some time. | ||

Sure it's part of it but the main factor is superior skill when kespa did win. I try to be SUPER objective assessing skills. I wonder who of the two of us is actually able to talk to players about exactly the things you just mentioned. Nobody undersold anything. It's just that people watching a stream have expectations and if those are not matched they start to bitch. So if you believe in hype and the casters are more rational and show both sides of the coin a lot will start to cry like babies. Which is exactly the reason why we are having all this bullshit drama right now. Bandwaggon-mentality ftw. And for the record: one ALWAYS annoys someone, one will never be able to please everyone. That's how life works, the sooner you figure that out the better. | ||

You're right everyone has different perceptions of casting. I was just giving mine.. I think you guys are great for the most part. Looking forward to GSTL tonight with the two best teams! | ||
