With a nearly closed system like this it becomes quite unattractive for players from abroad or far away places in the USA to travel to a MLG if the are not in the TOP 16. I do like the group stage with bo3 though. Also the new extended series as it is now makes at least some sense. On February 26 2011 09:19 imPERSONater wrote: lololol the extended series stayed in. You can't fault them for sticking to their guns! It will be great anyway, just a minor detail in a solid event. American SC2 fighting!!!!! Nope, its much less retarded now than it was before. | ||

I'm usually pretty good with this stuff. >_> Also, extended series is basically bullshit and I don't understand the rationale behind it at all. | ||

What about "change the map pool over the course of the season", seeing as how getting imbalanced/race favouring/broken/overused maps out of the pool as quick as possible should be an obligation of any SC2 league? Any hope for that? Or will that also be announced as part of the map announcement? | ||

For my taste it should be at least half of players in the championship bracket coming from the open bracket. That way the point leaders would still have a huge advantage.

Half of the Championship bracket is coming from the open bracket, it's just if you were in the loser's bracket of the open bracket, you get put into the loser's bracket of the championship bracket. | ||

As far as I understand the extended series is a feature of winners bracket/ losers bracket system, which is seen as a more fair system than straight knock out since you might face the overall winner in the very first round. | ||

The Championship Bracket features 32 total players. Yes, only four have a chance to get into Pool Play, but the other 12 players who advanced from the Open Bracket with a loss are placed into the Championship Losers Bracket. | ||
