Glad to see that Swarm hosts are being used a lot.

This is probably the best example that makes it apparent why raw game wins shouldn't be used instead of differential. It creates perverse incentives.


Exactly.

What is a better score 2/1 or 101/100. It's obvious right?

in percentages it's 2:1
always a matter of perspective


Of course its 2-1! Who could possibly argue 101-100 is a better score???


there is no such thing as a better score in this case

It probably has to with the fact that 5 wins 4 loses = 55.56% winrate, 4 wins 3 loses = 57.14% winrate.

This also happened at 2012 DreamHack Open: Summer, Group Stage #2, Group G. 3 way tie between Seiplo (5-3), Mini (4-3), ToD (5-4). Seiplo and Mini advanced.

If Mini beat ToD this seems correct.

He needed to hit and run. Instead he lost all of his good units.

Yes there is. 2-1. 66.66% winrate vs roughly 50%. Clearly 2-1 is superior. How is there no such thing as a better score?

I am using an extreme example to make the point. What about 50-0 vs 150-100?

I really don't see elfi winning this, even if his army is starting to look really scary.

Bigger samples are simply more accurate though. That why Bo7 is always better than Bo3. Anyway, Dreamhack system isn't all that bad.

Thorzain goes through due to head 2 head and also he has a superior map %. By no differential could Lucky go through.
