thank you mathematics and rationality.

Why does it say "Semi-Finals" for Dear vs Maru, and "Quarter-Finals" for Soo vs Soulkey?

Doesn't really make a difference?
Of course I bash players I don't like and defend those that I do like.

Op when I was making fun of prime I was just having some friendly banter and still being bitter about a certain Las Vegas GSTL final.

If you're super bored at work could you calculate the chances of Mvp's 2011 career vs soulkey's(incomplete, but we'll just say ro4 s3 for now) gsl career? Like the chance of getting 1st, 8th then 4th in 3 seasons vs the chance of getting 1st, 1st, 1st, 2nd, 3-4, 3-4, ro32, ro32, ro32 in 9. I'm just curious how it stacks up probability wise.

Updated the probabilities. Should be more or less correct. Forgot the combination of tournament result possibilities.
I'd have to write a script to use aligulac and their historical winrates and then write a script to do all the multiplying.
I'm not THAT bored.
Caveat: the comparison only works if their winrates and chances of winning are the same. There is more than just winrates that go into chances of winning a tournament, such as the game's balance and metagame, condition of players, stress, choke likelihood, and so many other things impossible to calculate.

Do you think SK's ro4 at season 1 finals should count? Legitimately just asking your opinion.

i disagree with your assumptions - you calculate that for a 'good' player the chance of winning one tournament out of three is 5% when the absolute chance for at least one tournament should be higher
if a player's chance of winning a particular tournament is x, then the chance of that player winning:
exactly 1/3 tournaments = 3*x*(1-x)^2
exactly 2/6 tournamnets = 6C2*2^2*(1-x)^4
for the two chances to be roughly equivalent, a player needs to have about ~50% chance to win any given tournament
that's not totally unreasonable - i daresay a 'bonjwa' would be considered by the community to have a 50:50 chance to win any particular tournament

It can count but it would have to count against something that Mvp did to make the comparison accurate, seeing as It's not a GSL style format.

well half the time he says it doesn't matter and the other half he does, so let's say it matters 50% of the time

I mean I we do that MVP wins even harder because we open the door to non GSL tournaments of which he won several at the time.

uhm 3-2 bet against maru ?
i don`t know why , but somehow it got a strange feeling when betting against maru .it is not like this "uhm haha that idiot bet against mvp " feeling but it somehow goes twards that direction , that guy simply knows how to win games , its not always nice to watch , but maru gets the job done )

I made a mistake and did it again, I forgot the combination of tournament results, so basically x3 and x15 for those numbers respectively.

I think if Soulkey had gone to international non WCS tournaments this year it would be fair to add multiple to compare against, but Soulkey only played in the season 1 finals. So I think fairly, you would find the 2011 " weekend " tournament most comparable to the season 1 finals and pit it against it.

even so i think you're underplaying e.g. a 'bonjwa' would not have a 70% chance of getting out of the RO32, it 'should' be quite a bit higher. this is because we're not talking any old player winning tournaments, but a player considered 'bonjwa-worthy'
