you would rather they start on saturday and have the finals on monday?
No, why dont start in the evening? And why you need 3 days to play a 16 players tournament anyway?
It's the season final it shouldn't be a rushed event.
Rushed? How about starting the finals at a decent time? Oh wait, this super important final is dumped in a corner on a gameshow were nobody give two fucks about esports (except the people who come for it) so we need to start the finals at 15.30 CEST....
My god, i thought it would be bad but didn't expect the schedule would be this bad. Well up to the next season finals i guess, 3e time is a charm.
Bad scheduling? Well, they kinda needed to go through 16 matches in a day. And finish in a reasonable time.
Actually it is 20 match in a day ( 5 match per group)

The final series of the group stage (winner of the losers match vs loser of the winners match) will be played tomorrow. Also, we really have a lot of protoss in the groups, so I don't think they will run into scheduling issues as long as they can keep the downtime low. ^.^"
Why will the final matches be played tomorrow? I suppose that will give a slight advantage to the 1st placer of each group, but it also makes premaking the OP a pain in the butt lol especially since they probably won't release Ro8 brackets until after those games are played. (Unless it's AvD, BvC?)
Anyone who knows more about the tournament format please PM me more details so I can fix the OP for tomorrow asap

No joke, last night I had a dream where I somehow missed the global finals and realized it at 7 o'clock. I then went to check the standings, and Welmu was up 4 - 0 in maps, making it to the ro8. That is my prophecy to the great medium which is TL!
Though the prophecy does have some holes. I did dream I missed the group-stage, which I won't. Oh and I'm pretty sure I saw him beat Duckdeok, who is in another group...so...maybe not..
I hope Jaedong makes it through. ZvX is the only match-up I really enjoy watching. Unless it's ZvZ. Or late game ZvP with Swam Hosts where both players play passively. Or ZvT where Z loses to Widow Mines.
