Forgive me if I misunderstood the rules but by 1-0 advantage, they mean Liquid starts one series up and has to win one BO9 whereas Acer has to win 2 BO9. It's a tad extreme honestly for double-elim, simple due to the very lengthy series, but it does make sense on paper. | ||

This season either team has to win 2 bo9s; but liquid starts with 1-0 in map score each series | ||

Frankly though, when dealing with BO9 team format stuff and brackets, things are going to get weird anyway. | ||

Would kind of suck if you fly in two teams and it's potentially over in one Bo9 in a conventional double elim setup, wouldn't it? | ||
