all-kill format is best format


god no.

I want to see new players not same person all killing all the time.

I can understand this issue in theory but I haven't seen anything like this in gstl. Lots of players started making names for themselves there and the spotlight was shared very well.


edit - I wish there was a way other than the extremely expensive monthly membership to watch gstl.


You can buy a season ticket just like last year ^^. It's $19.99.

Agree, also the prices ... i find them rather expencive, will have to watch low quality then nps.

And IM will easily dispatch of TSL who's overrated and apears the new bandwagon.
happy to see oGs-TL pick Zenex, should be no problem for oGs to pick appart the weakest team around.
SlayerS vs FXO should be intresting though, looking forward to that one, might be very close.

give us proleague format, bo7, ace-match! Winners league doesn't say that much about a team really, just how good their best players is...

While I agree that Proleague format would enable teams to showcase more players, I don't think having only 1 game per match will really do much showcasing. Yeah you get to see him play 1 game and that's it.

However, in an All-Kill format, one unknown player can come out of nowhere and kick continuous ass. That's what happened with MMA and DRG at the start of the GSTL, they just kept taking out nerds left and right. Would they have received as much hype if they had only played 1 game per match? Definitely not.

So yeah, there are pros and cons to both formats.

Awesome that GSTL is back, the format is a bit doofy, but this is still the best tournament on the planet imo, even better than Code S. I'm hyped.

They really need to just do simple proleague format with each round being a full round robin, and playoffs at the end of multiple rounds. Team league needs to be the backbone of the pro scene, whereas right now it is more near special event status.

Meh. I don't like this format at all. Should've just copied Proleague's old format with ace match.
It can't be helped. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Best of 5 - each Round being best of 3 with ace matches is the best.

In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

It sucks more to be TSL. The guy who made the thread regarding the chances TSL have to win this season will be really disappointed ~
