What disappoints me a bit about this league, though, is that it's not an all-kill format and the limited number of games :| With $50,000 on the line, make teams work for it. Have them play an all-kill Bo9 Bo3.

Have them play an all-kill Bo9 Bo3. Weeks 4-6 will be all kill format. Having bo9 with bo3 is not a suitable format for the TeSL who are shown on Taiwan TV and must fit in their schedule. the current format allows for 6-10 maps per night, which fits well with their time slot, and does not have too much variance. Bo9/Bo3 means 10-27 maps per night, which makes filling the timeslot very difficult and random (Some nights you have 10 maps and are over in 2 hours, but if you go the full 27, you're staying around for a long time). | ||

Australia is being represented by Benji's own Xeria Gaming - so they'll be using their own team line up. That means no mOOnGLaDe, PiG, etc. Would have been nice to see an 'all-star' line up like some of the other countries are using though | ||

Ah, it's a TeSL gig, okay, but I still think Bo3s are better. With Bo1s a lot of players are just cheesing. | ||

I'm guessing, 1) MVP 2) iG 3) Taiwan-Blue You're forgetting the home turf advantage Taiwan has in this league. iG is in the same group as MVP, while Taiwan Blue is in a group with Australia, Thailand, and Japan... Only the top team advances from each group - and iG is not going to advance over MVP -> its going to be a Taiwan vs. Korea offline grand finals unless a major upset happens. | ||
