It's just basic logic : the more games you play, the less chances the inferior player has of creating an upset. i understand this, but my argument is more like this: a progamer will never lose a bo3 and then say, "if this was a bo5, i would've definitely won." it's stupid to think that players who got eliminated in a bo3 deserve a bo5 just because they lost in a disappointing 0-2 manner. a bo3 in no way, shape or form is unfair to either competitor. | ||

See all game 1 and 2 on the same map is so boring. Let the loser pick the map and random select the first map or choose the first map in some way for every match. | ||

Xelnaga, then cross fire got a little boring for all the matches in my humble opinion. | ||

The $25 pass is for the entire season, there's no way they're charging extra to get access to the finals. There isn't even such a subscription option on the NASL site. Edit to add: I can confirm that the season pass gives you access to the VODs. I'm watching them right now. | ||

I hope they give their whole production gets a good look at in the offseason to work on improving the quality of their product. | ||

It also means there's never going to be a need for tiebreakers. GSL groups only appears to take less time because GSL has 4 booths, so 2 players are always ready to go. It wouldn't work with 2 booths, it would take forever to play all the games with all the switching in and out | ||
