How bout six in a round robin and the top two get to play in a grand final?

Maybe start the first place guy out 1:0 to the second place guy, so it's really a Bo4 or a Bo6.


That sounds pretty good - although what about that they will have already played earlier?

Rematch - same way group stages have deciders that are sometimes a rematch of the first or second set.

Yeah although I believe Sen is quite deserving, something seems a bit fishy here.

You can also vote while logged out of TL (which is a big flaw of the voting system imho, since you cannot monitor / detect spamvotes), so it's easily achievable if you just spread the word "here is this webpage, find me in this list and click" + Show Spoiler +
or there are other solutions too but i dont want to accuse of anything... without proof

Manas votes were also kinda suspicious, since if i last recall he got like 400 votes before the end of voting. I hope thats not the case though, cause Mana is awesome.

Yeah, but Sen won two Hong Kong tournaments recently, only on SC2 and one in Hearthstone (beating Amaz), so he has a lot of exposure the last days, especially in Asia.

I don't have a clue of what happened, but he might gave an interview or something and that's the reason he got a lot of votes.

Also Mana got a lot of votes (more than Snute and Bunny). The thing is that people vote who like more, not who's the best! To be honest I like Mana a lot more than Snute and Bunny. Nothing personal, I just follow Mana since the beginning and I always liked his stream.

....


That's quite true. There is a post about this poll at a Taiwan sc2 forum. It got over 1000 hits in 7 hrs.
I believe most of the people had polled for Sen just as I did....

Eventually, it's a polularity poll.

Sen is the only foreigner to win a premier tournament since 2012?

and he has been around the longest next to Whitera or something

and he just won Hearthstone Tournament beating Amaz, who is a big deal, (and there are probably more HS viewers and players than SC2 in the world right now)

and if its true that after his victories a Taiwanese forum posted this poll link and had everyone on there vote for Sen, then well, i guess its not TOO farfetched

well still kinda farfetched but, whatever this is just a POPULARITY Tournament after all, u wont get the 6 best foreigners from this...?


EDIT:

Sen
Scarlett
Nerchio
MaNa

so far its these 4 with most votes

so no Bunny, no Snute (best foreigner aint even going to lie, and even Apollo said so on stream)

Bunny and Snute might have to go through the tough and stacked gauntlet that is the qualifiers, for that 2 spots cause they werent popular enough

and note upsets do happen, like a certain TL player who lost to Minraiser in WCS EU, imagine a this "6 best foreigner tournament" without this TL player, ridiculous

pretty fair that some popular players got invites and 2 players will have a much tougher road to getting in huh for this 6 Best Foreigner tournament

If you are the best foreigner a random bracket made of mid tier foreigners shouldn't really be a problem?
