As far as I am aware from what I've read and what you have posted, your point system allows for players in Code S group stages to get more points due to factors outside their control.

I'm sure people may disagree with my opinion, (or I may be wrong), but I personally don't like the way this works out.

E.g:-

If in the group stage you have players A,B,C and D.
Somone selects player A for their team.

Situation 1.
Player A beats C
Player B beats D
Player A beats D
Player B loses to C
Player B beats C

Player A gets 12 points for two game wins.

SItuation 2
Player A beats C
Player B beats D
Player A beats D
Player B beats C
Player A plays and beats B for positioning

Player A gets 16 points for three game wins.

This is third game only arrives due to the results of OTHER players. I view this as being a bit random and unfair. If it stays like this, you have to not only predict who you think will come out of each group but try and find groups with 2 clear winners to try and get this situation and maximize points...

Thoughts?

It is not possible to get three wins in group play, since in round 2 winner plays losers. If a player wins both his first and second game, he's already on the top of his bracket and will not play a third game, regardless of what happen to rest of the group.


Writing a draft guide for GSL is suffering ;_;
