It's ok if all players give their best even when already eliminated/ qualified, the weakness of RR obv.

i dont think it created artificial excitement, this was actually really fun today, lot of quirky games and funny cast, and of course that weird Hush vs soO game

I like the RR format, it's a nice refreshing thing and it gives SSL challenger a unique format that includes a ton of games between some damn good players. It's definitely got a few flaws, but I've been enjoying the games today and it's better than Code A where one bad draw can fuck your life up. Might even be better than GSL groups would've been just because that format is -everywhere- and bad luck is a little more influential.

They're two maps each, not a full Bo3 series.

I agree that heaving different formats is nice but I'd still say the GSL group format is the least flawed just because of the fact that every match matters

Its pretty hard to represent it on Liquipedia, since it doesn't really matter whether they beat a specific opponent 2-0, 1-1. it really only matters how many maps you win/ away maps you win

Whoever wins this is very likely to be through; Bomber going 0-2 against soO/Hush is unlikely.

If Cure wins he's 100% through because only Bomber and soO could tie his score but they have to play each other.
