copy pasta from my thread
If you've ever seen Afro Samurai, I want to copy the headbands idea.

It's kind of an extension of the Unofficial World Champion thing.
The number 1 headband currently belongs to sOs for winning Blizzcon, the number 2 headband belongs to Jaedong for getting 2nd. If the #2 beats the #1 then they switch headbands. If someone without a headband beats the #2 then they take it. The #1 can only lose their headband to someone with the #2.
This will be tracked for any tournament that gives WCS points.

So at the begging of the year sOs had the #1 headband and Jaedong had the #2 headband. Jaedong's first WCS matches were at ASUS ROG Winter, where he defended the #2 headband against GunGFuBanDa, elfi, and Liquid Hero. But then Life beat Jaedong to take the #2 headband, and then San beat Life to take the #2 headband. From there San won the tournament and still has the #2 headband. So now we have sOs still with the #1 headband, and San with the #2 headband with 2 defenses (StarDust and Dear). The only way for sOs to lose his #1 headband is if the player with the #2 headband beats him in a WCS Tournament. So if San keeps defending and holds on to his #2 headband, and then he beats sOs at IEM Cologne, then San will take the #1 headband and sOs will get the #2 headband.
A little complicated haha but I thought it could be fun, and I'm gonna add something to highlight upcoming headband defense matches, with #1 vs #2 being a big deal.
