Split it over 2 days? Bo1 is the fastest way to miss good players imo.

Its a tough way to play, but it isnt inaccurate. To some degree it may be inaccurate, but yeh. This is true.. If you are inconsistent and can't beat a player in a lower league (for example), then you don't deserve to win anyway. ive seen top players go out first round in ccup, the only reason we say bo3 is because we dont want team dignitas ending up with 8 people in a final who all 4 gated 2 rax scv or 6 pooled to the top 4 in each qualifier do we. I do agree with this, but then.. this is a tournament. Players do any means necessary to win. Even though you might feel you are the better player. Thats why the BO3 series comes into effect around this time, to drain out these players. | ||

Probably during that game you played better than Bischu. (: Starcraft 2 is more about being consistent to achieve high aims. I would rant on people I have beaten in CraftCup, but it was probably by luck of BO. But with the amount of rounds present in this tournament, the best players will show. | ||

then do it every game on the ladder! cheeses are good for mixing it up within a series. i would be extremely surprised if someone who 6 pooled every game managed to win like 6 games straight, the chances are extremely unlikely.... | ||

That could end up with a good player losing to 1 instance of a 6 pool. I think your blowing this way out of proportion in a delusive view You clearly haven't seen the map pool. - It's part of the game, not the best always wins. | ||

We will also leave the schedule as it is with Rounds 1-3 being Best of One and Round 4 & 5 (Quarter Final) Best of Three. Remember that each player has two vetos during the map picking process of those last rounds. A reminder news with all the details (when/how to check-in) and hopefully (fingers crossed) stream details(!) will go live on our page Sunday noon...ish .
