I'm going to defend the indefensible and say something in favour of the "best of one" (which isn't really, it's just a round robin group stage). I don't think there is a problem with it in and of itself, the problem is the groups are too small at size 4. If you have groups of 8 or even larger then playing only one match against each player in your group wouldn't be a problem, losing one match is no longer such a big deal.

Honestly I don't even really see the point in having a round robin group stage when you only have groups of size 4.


You obviously don't really know what you are talking about. Group size of 4 is great, and pretty much ideal. Especially when it's BO3


Basically no real life sport runs best of three in the group stages (read: regular season), they all run formats such that every match counts for points. Real life sports can be pretty damn volatile too. It's just that most real life sports run group stages with more matches, which is exactly what I'm proposing by expanding the size of the groups. Having best of whatever series isn't the only way to limit random luck.


But no real life sports (i know of) have different maps like starcraft has... And that's a pretty huge factor imho...


Just about every real life sport uses multiple venues which you could take to be the equivalent of multiple maps. In some sports the impact of the venue is very significant.

BTW nobody is going to tell them they're assholes for the way they treated avilo on the cast? After the SelecT drama it seems like a huge wasted trolling opportunity by those so inclined.


Who the fuck is avilo?



Ok Shakas why would anybody feel pity for Avilo at all? When all he does on these forums are rage about tvp being unwinnable and more so his tvz posts being unwinnable unless you all in. A lot of people think of him as a joke hence the "what is avilo doing wrong?" comment which wasn't even that bad to begin with...


I think you missed the point, it's not that I have sympathy for him, it's that I'm surprised that people have missed a chance, no matter how small or far fetched, to tell Geoff he's an arsehole. I guess there are limits to what even trolls are willing to stand up for.

The weekly "discussions" in the sotg thread is almost entertaining enough to keep me preoccupied until the next cast. Keep it up the good work Internet.

I love JP in episode 12:

JP: What's going on man?
Day9: I have a one dollar burrito, and it's delicious, mmmm!
JP: That's disgusting...

a few seconds later:

JP: What's going on man?
Psy: Not much, playing Minecraft right now
JP: Oh my god...


haha!
I spoke to Flash's doctor, and apparently he got turrets syndrome

not comparable. evryone can adapt in the same way in those sports. in starcraft this only would be true if either the maps all are perfectly balanced or evryone plays the same race.

ServaNt beat Sjow and MorroW and advanced from group C. Doesn't seem to be a terrible player like painuser suggested.
