This could very well be a situation where Stephano would maximize his overall tournament winning chances by losing this match, because it puts him against an opponent he is confident against in the brackets. Bad tourney design. http://www.sirlin.net/blog/2012/8/1/playing-to-win-in-badminton.html | ||

How can a $100.000 first place prize tournament have such limited production value.... | ||

 HuK vs  KiLLeR - Game One - DaybreakThe game played out the usual Daybreak PvZ fashion, with both players taking three bases to start and then going about working on their plans. Not surprisingly, Killer wanted to turtle up and go to brood lords, while HuK tried to hit with speedlots and archons to disrupt this timing. However he didn't come close to threatening Killer, and died to the floating cloud of death. | ||

Well, Rain being arrogant is hardly surprising. Honestly, I think he'll be better off having lost a game so he knows he can't go around thinking he's already got the win. Good to see it all not being one-sided, though. | ||

Bad tourney design. http://www.sirlin.net/blog/2012/8/1/playing-to-win-in-badminton.html So you believe that Blizzard should have predicted that the better player would not finish first? You also think that anyone will just throw one match on the assumption that he will win the 3rd match? Two get out, not three. | ||
