I'm kind of wondering about the pace of games, now.

I know it's a bit too soon to start making changes like this, but I wonder if Best of Fives would be better as a standard match, now?

I'm not used to things ending this early, and I like the longer broadcasts. And heck, the longer a series is the more often the more skilled player will win, right?

Dunno, just wonder if the faster pace of LotV means things should be extended a bit outside of the game.


I think this is a really good idea , only issue is it requires 5 good maps, blizzard struggled to make 3 tbh

It's actually been a topic of discussion since the first LotV tournaments. We'll see what ends up happening. More Bo5 in earlier rounds and Bo7 at maybe Semi-Finals would make sense.

Interesting point, the games seem to over way faster than before. Bo5 might be the way to go

For Single Elimination brackets, I could see Bo5 being the standard by mid-year. Bo3 for Group Stages still makes more sense, as a Bo5 can still stretch for a couple of hours in LotV if things go wonky.

When GSL uses that map in their Pre-Season pool, you know things aren't going too well on the map front.

It's super mobile because of being fast AND it doesn't care about terrain. I'm not balance whining I'm just disappointed Blizz went for a unit like that.
