It takes a lot of skill to go through a gauntlet of games in a weekend. Possibly more skill than trying to plan out and methodically counter another person. I don't mind at all and you're all blowing this way out of proportion. Cool, and people watch MLG for that. Variety in tournaments is a good thing. | ||

the GSL finals are going to be squeezed between some rounds with both players already tired from all the games they played why would anyone think this is a good idea? | ||

i really think they should play only the finals there (and fly out the finalists a week early too so they can adjust to the jetlag) oh, and also seed the finalists into ipl5 too. so alive + 7 regional winners + 2 gsl finalists = 10 players satellites qualified -> open bracket -> six progress = 16 (more than six if needed e.g. if finalists are already qualified e.g. mkp or taeja) 16 players play groups -> single elim i know it's a changed format from announced but this would work better also as it is, IPL5 would in be in mid-oct. i'm thinking it might be better for late oct so they can play ro8 and ro4 at home On August 12 2012 13:23 TommyP wrote: Dude he lost to MC and Creator Prime (in a series he shoulve won) I dont see how he has "disappointed" really (well i guess by his standards every game he loses is a disappointement if you are trying to argue that) Everybody has a few bad games, he;ll be back for GSL season 4 and the first SC2 OSL. no such thing really as "should have won" - i am not so sure drg is that heavily favoured against either of them anyway. unless we're talking about D/C or something, "should have" just undermines the winner's skill On August 12 2012 12:45 RaiKageRyu wrote: Thought just occurred to me... GOM said they wanted to have Psy perform Gangnam style at next GSL Finals. Next GSL finals at IPL, which is at Las Vegas. Psy flying over and performing Gangnam Style?! HOLY CHECK!!! hoooo damnnnnn also one thing to think about i guess is the fact that the blizzard cup last year was pretty much the same as a weekend tourney so yea | ||
