Did anyone else feel a little bad for the players this time around because they were dealing with such a harsh format? | ||

I can't say that I fully support a system that leaves the vast majority of players high and dry. It's almost too "coliseum-ey" for me, like the movie Gladiator. I don't want to see people suffer for my amusement. Did anyone else feel a little bad for the players this time around because they were dealing with such a harsh format? I don't think so, many players will be disappointed right after they lose. But after a good nights sleep, they forget everything and look forward to the next tournament. time heals everything. jjakji even said it in his interviews | ||

I find it somewhat hard to believe that more than 50,000 people who have never before watched SC2 would spontaneously tune in to watch one particular finals He probably means the live audience since a majority of them were middle school kids keeping their seats for LoL finals. | ||

That's why IEM did this as one off, I think it was correct move from them to hype the tournament. Keep in mind they have one of the flattest prize distributions rest of the time. | ||

Maximum awkward finals for one of the highest prices ever in SC2. So... this is the highest possible play in this game, from the best players in the world... cheesing with double proxy rax in 3 games out of 5? So bad advertisement for this game. | ||

Most famous BW finals of all time is Boxer bunker rushing yellow THREE times. | ||

Most finals of every sport arent as good as normal games, theres a lot of nerves and the desire to win no matter what... even the CSGO finals were crap, VP was the only team playing, they looked cool because VP its a polish team and the crowd was very supportive, Dota 2 Dreamhack finals were bad also, NaVi dominated them from start to finish, the last game wasnt even worth watching, and so a lot of other finals Finals are about to win, not to entertain the crowd... Greece winning the Euro 04 was an awful final, a lot of Champions finals are boring too, this year Super Bowl was completely forgetable... | ||
