How does it not? 7 is more than 6 lol.


Head to head makes waaay more sense to me. But agreed that I'm glad Grubby made it through.

head to head in this 3 way tie scenario would still go to mapscore since moonglade > grubby > tlo > moonglade

But 6 is more than 5 as well.


True, but the rules apparently say wins are more important. nothing unfair about it, everybody knows (well should know) them before entering.

I love that Grubby advanced, but it seems like a really bad system that he advanced over moonglade.

Dream/TLO/Moonglade, if my math is correct (Glade and Grubby both at +1, Glade > Grubby in H2H).


total maps won counts higher as h2h afaik.
So Grubby advances 3rd over moonglade.


Really? If that's the case, then that rule makes no sense. 7-6 isn't better than 6-5.


It is better. An extreme example would be 70-60 and 60-50, +10 gets worth more the more games were played.


Totally not.
You think 70-60 is more impressive than 20-10 (or 11-1)?

Oh right. Okay yeah good stuff.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

An even more extreme example: 1-0 vs 10-9. According to you, 10-9 is better.

He loses on either set of traditional tiebreakers. Mapscore = last place. head to head we had moonglade > Grubby > TLO > moonglade which would then go to map score meaning moonglade is out again. I don't see how it's unfair

Well obviously map score is the first factor, and here TLO has the highest net map score, however, net mapscores for Grubby and Moonglade are equal, they are merely advancing Grubby because he has 1 more win than Moonglade, while Moonglade has a higher winratio(6/11>7/13). Moonglade also won the head to head.

I have no quote!

Both players have the same mapscore of +1.
Grubby has won more maps total.
Grubby goes through.
Just ahead of time, know your addiction's not a crime. It's just a smaller part of who you want to become in the end.

You are all overthinking this, they both played the same amount of matches, and Grubby won more games.

TLO is +4 F/A, while Glade and Grubby are +1 F/A, so it's isn't really a 3-way tie

I didnt notice it was 7-6 vs 6-5 i thought Grubby was 7-5 off the top of my head. I guess it depends if the rules state win % or win count after win-loss difference. It appears they choose win count

Yes, in the 3way tie no head2head is possible, so TLO is best by mapscore.
Grubby and Moonglade are equal in map difference, so you can make a new tiebreaker between those 2 and then moonglade advances by head2head. Many tournaments do it that way.

i also thinks is unfair to glade to be eliminated like this, i can think of two options when two players "tie" like this:

1. Bo3 match

2. winner of the match between tied players advance
i would define my style between a mix of ByuN, Maru and MKP

In the end, the rules are what they are, I'm sure all players know them beforehand as well. It's still somewhat peculiar that they chose to do things this way, but I'm sure they have their reasons

Nerchio pushed in with about 15-20 roaches and about 6-8 queens. Nonstop transfuse. Diestar pulls SCVs. Still not enough to hold. GG
