TOURNAMENT this year. They won't change it for the Global Finals. Except Blizzcon is only 2 days and have a tighter schedule. Season finals are played over 3 days. Have them have match 1,3,5,7 on stage 1 and 2,4,6,8 off stage indicates it is likely single elim brackets. | ||

As long as the matches are bo5 I dont mind a single elim bracket. Last 2 Blizzcons were double eliminiation with bo3 all the way to the finals. | ||

As a matter of fact, GSL held one of their finals at Blizzcon 2011 at the same event and absolutely blew Blizzard's away. | ||

They have to fit all of that other stuff into the same time period as the SC2 event, and give people the chance to see that and also be watching SC2. Having a limited time and packing more stuff in it doesn't mean you can have more time dedicated to one activity. Have to carve time out for some main stage Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm action. | ||

It was Bo5s all the way until the finals, which were Bo7. And that event happened over two days just like this will. Until we get some concrete indication as to otherwise, I'm assuming the same thing this year. | ||

Three days would be even worse. I think people underestimate just how much planning and actual manpower has to go into something like this. They literally have to plan their entire company around this event, and I'm being completely serious. | ||
