This is great. What about showmatches with Koreans?

I think Rifkin could arrange some showmatches with Koreans if he get's enough donations for his "moneyspeaks" showmatch thingy's. I for one would love to see Impact Vs Ryung in a Bo5 or more.

I think Bo5 is 150$ or something.

Ha, hardly any competition as of yet. This will be a breeze. Pretty cool that it's an even split between races so far.

EDIT: Oh, Rifkin's casting again! Yay!

Was fun to watch but why a bo3 and a bo1 afterwards? Thats kinda weird. I understand that the guy from the loserbracket gets a malus. But normally the guy from the winner bracket just gets a free win so he starts with 1-0 or the guy from the loserbracket has to win 2x bo3.

Well it was mostly poor planning from my side. I was not used to the loser's bracket format.

Also the games in the loser's bracket for this tournament were Bo1 so you may say that rsvp "knocked Franscar down" to the loser's bracket after the first 2-0 and then they had to play a Bo1 in the loser's bracket to get the victor.

Also Rifkin was so sick and needed to rest.

It was in the loser's bracket, so no. I'll see if I can get the replays and I'll cast them later i they are good games.
