As I said, herO is not the type of player who would be crushed by 2nd place.

And I got even hate for saying that...

There isn't a sport or a game that doesn't have its fair share of bad finals.

Case in point the god awful Super Bowl this year.

Or Alabama vs Notre Dame in College Football the year before.

There isn't a sport or a game that doesn't have its fair share of bad finals.

Even in traditional sports semis are usually WAY better than the finals. Teams go balls out in order to get TO the finals, but then way too many get to the finals and play not to lose instead of playing to win and it just ends up being a snooze fest. It's a very common problem, actually lol

HAHAHAHAHA! Yeah, what Superbowl?

BUT OMFG! Really can't stand sOs's abusive builds and mind games that helped him get $200K. It makes me feel ashamed of being a Protoss fan... Even Liquid HerO is not happy about it -______________-

I watched bw from like 2009 onwards, and everything you just said applies to sc2 as well. Proxy gates is a bit of a special case since it is far easier to defend when scouted, but that doesn't mean it's skill less.

Well, it gives me that feeling, at least, but it wasn't the main point anyway.

SC2 PvP I've seen so far is even less viewer-friendly than BW's ZvZ, and that's saying something.
It wasn't that bad before HotS, right?
I think their strategy is to dumpster bad Western teams (c) uriel

And I'm not a 49ers fan who is really bitter about losing by about six inches...

Really, winner takes it all?

That's just about the worst thing one could possibly do for the longevity of the esport. It would have been far better with everyone getting a fair chunk and the winner only like 20k.

Personally, I've always split the pot in the finals if there's been an opportunity and the difference between the first and second place is significant, otherwise there's way too much pressure to be able to play decently.
