I don't like the format either, but the "3-2 loss" argument is retarded. They didn't play a bo5, they played a bo3 twice. That's quite a huge fucking difference.

So you dont think that the system was unfair to serral in this scenario. Care to explain why?

I already had this debate, and learned that nothing useful comes from it anyway. And you guessed my opinion wrong, btw.

Guys arguing about GSL format, if you're bitter because of Serral loss, remember that with the loser bracket, he is not out yet.

It's totally fair. In the end, Rain won two series while Serral only won one.

I think it's just the fastest/most efficient. Other variants take too long. That's the only reason we stick with it. Time.

I think a Champions League style group would be more fair.

Rain also played vs the easiest player in the group, while serral didnt get the chance.
