So Naniwa has to win 4 out of 5 matches to get through to the final?
Nope, it's a Bo7 with Polt up 2-0. The usual way to handle a double elimination bracket is the one you mention.The way I understand it, it's 2 sets of 2 out of 3 matches, where Naniwa has to win both, and Polt only has to win 1. This is because Naniwa has already previously lost a 2/3 to be put into the loser bracket, where as Polt has never left the winner bracket.
Not sure the hate for this system, it seems like the fairest way to handle it.

I give Naniwa a pass though, cheering for him!
Wow, Nani just threw that game with poor collossi control.
I think the fact he had no forge and no real upgrades forced him to commit, without realizing Polt had no real upgrades either.Yeah, should have just made a 3rd. and headed for the late game.

Naniwa is seriously the Protoss Idra
Something that always gets me... You guys realize that this isn't little league right? Yeah, it's not in the best of tastes... but these guys have a lot of money riding on winning these tournaments, can you really blame them for getting emotionally charged in these situations?
That said, pinning my hopes on Hero. Know he's not likely to make a comeback against Hyun, but dammit, I like Hero.
Professional athletes still shake hands and hug after games. Why not show some sportsmanship?
You are right, they lose a lot moreProfessional athletes don't lose 10,000 if they lose a game. It's not the same thing... also not sure what professional athletes you watch (I'm guessing football with your avatar), you've never seen a person or know a person in the sport who gets emotionally involved/upset?
Except Naniwa is actually good at Starcraft.

Haha damn... my wife just started going into labor. Guess I'm not going to find out who wins till tomorrow. How dare my daughter decide that she has to come now.

Idra is also good at Starcraft. He just has the wrong behavior towards improving, and being overall toxic against everyone.
