Is this not incredibly obvious? | ||

And yet, it's obviously a bad idea - at least "obvious" to the majority of people (or at least SC fans) spectating. Just one of those things, I guess. | ||

The first poll is asking you if you think it's fair or not, the second is asking you if you like the rule or not. | ||

Is fairness more important than a more exciting final? Probably. | ||

Lol, cannot help but agree  I feel it spoils the excitement of the games when people meet for a rematch. Take for example DRG v Heart... Tastless said something like 'I think DRG should win' and as soon as someone said 'Oh DRG is 2-0, extended series' he said something like 'Oh well he WILL win then'. This just takes away the fun of people re matching in a tournament for me, not as much suspense going into the match (barring epic MC comebacks v IdrA). | ||

Any rules should apply to all players equally, the fact that it is unfair for certain players in your opinion ,just means that it shouldn't be there period | ||

Is it better for the spectators? No. It reduces a lot of the tension of the players being tied and having no expectations regarding the winner. Is fairness more important than a more exciting final? Probably. Except this rule also applies to people meeting again in the Loser's, or two players meeting in the Winner's after already met in pool play | ||
