People really thought blg would be heavily favored into this just cause they won the upper bracket game. Like there is no proper advantage for upper bracket winners in msi like in val in the first place and hle has momentum after winning the lower bracket game.
Geng just made people believe there is nothing wrong with msi double elim format lol.
Edit:- topic blg vs hle*
yeah we thought they were favored because they gigastomped HLE and then HLE proceeded to almost lose to fucking LYON
thinking BLG is favored is not a very far fetched opinion to have lol

Nah tho between top teams it's all about drafting and form in the day. I just meant to say blg aren't as heavily favored as people think. It's like 60/40 rather than like 80/20 for blg like people think. Momentum is also a huge thing.
Anyway riot needs to improve on this format in future. Geng just fooled everyone.
Ryandr [#5]Hle 3-1. First game won and they have more momentum now.
im not convinced. hle threw so many times, their lead saved them
when will Val have this giga upper brack less advandtage like League so we see great maps

All this time people want double elim at worlds and now that they did it at a diff event everyone also complains
if blg does lose this there will probably be some backlash on the format and riot might change the upper bracket winner advantage thing next msi but for now hle still looks shaky but confidence must be super high after that game

League one is controversial cause every game is a bo5 in playoffs but still current double map ban advantage in val is completely fine.

i don’t even care if you’re right, you can’t honestly be confident in this prediction when you saw the bullshit HLE was doing in game 1

This format is awesome but there needs to some proper incentive for winning upper bracket game. And most league fans still prefer single elim.

no way it ends in 4 games

it is fine when team from upper breackt is PRX cause it does not metter to them they will lose with adcantage

I am just predicting this cause despite how sloppy it was hle still has momentum and confidence now.

That is just the delusional t1 fans who dont actually "watch" the game, objectively double elim is much better and has been shown many times

momentum is genuinely so fake in league bro, both of these reset on the day and the reality is it all comes down to draft and how they play it
HLE didn’t play confident past 20 minutes. they spent half the fucking game on soul point lol

Or G2. Still riot has found the best balance with double map ban advantage ngl. It's not too overpowered and yet it's still very strong.

It's mostly about kanavi bro. He is always hella nervous in pressure games. This game win can give him the confidence and confidence is like everything sometimes in league especially for someone like him.

tbh g2 throw map 4 5

i mean we did see him do this in their last matchup. he was frying for one game but looked completely useless in the other three
i just thought of something to fix msi format. what if finals was a bo7 but upper winner leads with 1-0 from the start and lower winner needs to win 4 and upper winner needs to win 3 games to win the series? 6 games won't be that tiring to the league players and cause of the fearless draft if it reahces game 6 it would be insanely entertaining. also give 1 day rest for lower winners to reset the momentum while giving them rest for the bo7 in finals. i should make a separte thread for this

it’s just too obvious
