You choose which player deserves to advance before the game starts, and then you have them play a best of *N until the facts fit the truth. | ||

Both MC and Stephano lost their first game only to win the next two. honestly the only reason to ever have a best of one is if it's for qualifiers or something at a lower level of play and you don't want to host a huge volume of games for less notable players. if the players are evenly matched, best of one is literally making it a coinflip Nah, they would still play the game instead of flipping a coin for it. And the length of a series wouldn't matter if they were that evenly matched. :p | ||

The inconsistencies are astounding. | ||

Not if you just simulate it with a statistically weighted coin flip. Takes less than a second to get a winner. And of course the weights would be determined by a "who is the better player" poll. | ||
