Double Elimination Tournament

[Efhat]

Can we get a rematch in LB pls.
I didn't play, therefor we are entitled for a rematch.
The whole zone wants to see a last of a dying breed play. And lose with honor. Not lose in spec.
Thank you so much for making this happen.

Tiny?

The rules were clearly stipulated at the beginning of the season. You're mad we don't get to start with a 1-0 advantage in TWLJ and TWLB? Boo-hoo, who fucking cares.

You in the TWLJ Finals playing with Ease and Zidane, pretty sure that's advantage enough. This thread is dumb and makes us look bad.

Im entitled to my own opinion and has nothing to do with you or the squad, so calm your tits. And just because something is stipulated at the beginning of the season doesn't mean I have to agree with it or that's its the right thing to do.

It means the time to bring it up was before the season started... not two weeks into the playoffs AFTER your own squad has qualified for 2 of the 3 Finals.

halal beef is real

You posting rules which no one reads doesn't justify a change. It's the equivalent of agreeing to Terms of use prior to installing a new software. You pulled some shady shit.

For your sake, I hope you at least read contracts that you sign.

I was not diligent in reading the finals structure 3 months before the season started and I apologize. It only occurred to me when we were in the finals/near the finals and it was an actual thing that needed to be thought about and looked at. I'm sure all of Vikings looked into the twl finals structure 3 months before it happens to plan ahead (doubtful). I'm assuming by my gross exaggeration you get my point.

lol that has been established for a while now

Nice little fun convo so far with interesting arguments on both ends. Personally I thought it was bo5 with advantadge but turb corrected me yesterday. If you ask me..I rather play next week than sitting next week.

Wanna standout Cres's post, as some of these squads with deep rosters are already prized enough, whoever they face, wont have the same solutions skill wise, or if someone lags or doesn't show.

The mindset of finals and these in a way pointless winners brackets games complety changes the finals games imo. Fun fact: Cobra, Dudgeon and Thunder all started 1-0 in each league they had said advantadge only to see Cobra lose 1-3 and Dudgeon and Thunder 2-3. These last 2 squads also won the first round. On Fierce's case they just simply outclassed Cobra, the other two just couldnt seal it, Thunder was seconds away, while Dudgeon blew a big advantadge on the last needed win. Its both a virtue and a sin to start 1-0. Just go hard and focus on the important and let's not have finals where the timer never ended or when people lag so hard to reach 18kill like scores in such games with crucial eats and not being penalized for being so blatant.
Afterall, this is the last one we're playing, let's not fuck up.

Not gonna lie knowing there's only 2 lbs left for me to play, leaves my big heart with a scar, but my smile of how much I love you all remains. Have fun the next 2 weeks. Good night Papis.

I didn't read the rules this year as I really didn't have a realistic shot of getting this far in lol but from an outsiders perspective I do feel this setup is a bit lopsided so I'm going to suggest my idea double elimination could work where the top teams get rewarded for the ranking they finish in during the season. My idea is a bit different but I think a little more balanced as it works from the bottom up and not the top down like the setup this year does... meaning that the lower squads have to earn it more than the top squads. Instead of doing a 3 round match structure with 6 squads my idea is playoff would contain 5 SQUADS . It would work as follow

Regular season happens.. we get a top 6 situation resolved. Games would then happen as follows.....

TEAM 5 and TEAM 6 play a one round match BattleOff for true playoffs...Loser is OUT

TEAM 4 plays winner of the above match (Team 5 or 6) (now true playoffs begin with the 3 round matches).........Loser is OUT

TEAM 2 plays TEAM 3 (3 Round match)

-Winner of above match faces Team 1 . Loser of above match plays winner of match TEAM 4,5 or 6 results

-(1st seed team gets a by week during these games avoiding this part of the playoffs as a reward)

TEAM 4/5/6 winner plays TEAM 2/3 loser (3 round match) ...Loser is OUT

TEAM 1 plays TEAM 2/3 winner... Winner makes finals .....

Loser of above match either Team 1,2 or 3 plays winner TEAM of 6,5,4 results ... Loser is OUT ... Winner makes Finals to face Winner of TEAM 1,2,3 results

This way the top teams are rewarded for their placement during the regular season while the losers have to really earn the spot. It puts the burden more on the losers than the winners. Hope this makes sense.. it should, a graph would be easier but deal with it. Perhaps this can be what we do next year, Would love to hear feedback on this idea.
