On a personal note, I would like to thank you from sparing me from having to explain to my family why I would have to commit sudoku. | ||

I really don't like that two players can play each other twice, and the person who won the first set can still not make it out because of the second set. ttttttttttttttttttt Well, Scarlett won 2 Bo3s, and Illusion only won 1 Bo3. Since they aren't tied in that sense, head to head shouldn't matter | ||

I'm sure some of your family have played it. | ||

I understand the other guy didn't win enough Bo3, which is the point, but it still strikes me as somehow wrong. | ||

I try to think of it in terms of the entire set of matches for the bracket, rather than just looking at two players' head-to-head in a vacuum. There may very well always be small oddities when looking at a fraction of the bracket, but the bigger picture usually provides more context  | ||

Round Robin is a much better system, which is used in most other sports and where people are actually comparable to eachother, becuase they play the same opponents. But in Starcraft people seem to favor this system and I still am not sure why. | ||
