Yeah but, Nightend has nothing to fight for except his pride.


No, if he wins 2-0 he gets into a 3-way tie with Naniwa and fOrGG.


I think he also ties with nani on INTERNAL mapscore 5 to 3!




This man speaks the truth.

Nightend winning 2-0 means Nani advances, as:

Nani 1-1, 3-2
ForGG 1-1, 2-3
NightEnD 1-1, 3-3
3-2 > 3-3 > 2-3

What, did Snute lose 2-0 to Elfi? Why does liquipedia say he's guaranteed to go through?

points (potential 2-3 vs. 2-3) > map score (potential 5-7 is the same as 6-8) > head to head (snute beat thestc). snute is guarranteed 3rd spot, 2nd if he beats fraer.

Although this is all slightly amusing, it's pretty bad casters aren't fully informed on how tiebreakers work for the tournament they're casting. Whether this is on the casters or on the tournament I don't know. I hope the DH/ESL/MLG partnership will take a look at tiebreaker rules and unify them and release them publicly.


ESL and MLG rules are public and pretty easy to find

Unifying being the key word. The issue is there are too many tournaments for the casters to understand all the tiebreaker rules of. Same goes for player information and viewer information.


That would certainly make it easier, but I still think it's largely the casters job to actually familiarize themselves with the rules of the tournament that they going to cast. And same goes for players who are going to play in it. Timewise I don't think it would take more than a half an hour or so to go through the rules and I think that should be excepted for professional casters and players.

Then it's a completely different thing if the tournament rules are not clearly set or they are not easily available well before the tournament.

Assuming that the tournament rules were available for the casters to study beforehand, a caster to make jokes like "I don't really know how this is going to work/this situation is really confusing, etc" just says to me that that caster is not really doing his job.

I don't understand. Nightend went 2-1 vs nani, 1-2 vs forgg, and if he goes 2-0 vs ret isn't that 5-3.

The games vs ret don't matter, only the map score between the tied players does.

Here's the rulebook from 2011 DHW: http://www.dreamhack.se/dhw11/files/2011/11/DHW11-StarCraftIIRulebook-1.1.pdf

According to that rulebook, matches won > maps won > map difference > head-to-head > map score among tied participants. Hence if Ret beats NightEnD, be it 2-1 or 2-0, then he will advance, as he will have won more maps (6) than NaNiwa, ForGG, or NightEnD. If NightEnD wins 2-1, then it goes to the head-to-head tiebreaker between NaNiwa and ForGG, and NaNiwa advances. If NightEnD wins 2-0, then he, NaNiwa, and ForGG all have the same maps won and map difference, and there's a three-way head-to-head tie, so NaNiwa advances based on map score among himself, ForGG, and NightEnD.

TLDR: If Ret wins, he advances. If NightEnD wins, then NaNiwa advances. (Either way, everyone bitches about the tiebreaker procedures.)

They don't seem to have a 2012 rulebook for SC2. They do have one for CS:GO, which appears to use the same tiebreakers. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, it seems reasonable to presume that the tiebreakers haven't changed since last year.

From the casters, which they said the info comes from an admin, a 6-8 map score is the same as a 5-7

It could be that I misunderstood what they meant by "points" in the rulebook, and they really meant "matches won". In that case "maps won" isn't even considered. So if Ret wins 2-0, he advances, and in all other cases NaNiwa advances.

...why would Ret matter if Nightend wins 2-0?

Ret can only advance if he wins 2-0, we've already settled this, anything else and Nani wins

So it's internal mapscore before overall mapscore?

Does this mean that Snute advances even with a 2-0 deafeat against fraer?
