Haha.... this is my point of view. When Brain and RAbbit played eachother they only made it PvT and TvP, they both knew that if they got z, theyd pretty much lose... Idk why u ppl are afraid of ppl picking P ? Comn....

I did mention people were allowed to pick if both players agreed on it.  Preferably a mirror match up.

Borrrrrringgggggggg. Picking matchups removes so much from the game. There's no need to scout as you know what your opponent is. You've basically decided your strategy before the game even starts as you don't need to scout. Then mirror matchups are just boring in general, especially PvP. TvT can be fun until the long game and same with ZvZ. ZvZ is good until lurker swarm comes out and then both zergs just trade armies into lurker/swarm.

Playing RvR makes you think and react to a different race. You're forced to scout and change game play throughout. That way you don't get into robot mode and play PvP over and over again doing the same thing. No one wants to see that. Even during Rabbit's and Brain's games I found them boring. They did the same things every single game over and over again. Whoever picked protoss would just midbuild and go into the same tech after. They just did that for 10 games in a row. That's not fun to play or to watch.

The diversity is fun and it shows true skill.

Bingo!

With a little over 7 days to go before the season ends this is what the top 10 currently looks like. Will Xtre-KoN and Fire-KeNshU be able to work their way into the top 8? Will someone outside of the top 10 make a surprise climb and fight their way in? Will the current top eight be able to hold onto their spots with others breathing down their neck aiming to take their place? A lot can happen in just a week. Stay tuned and play your hearts out!

I love the fact that you added the playoff bracket. It will show clearly who is the best. Yes, there is M/U advantages but if you are considered a top 1s player you should be able to handle it. The game is still the same just strategies have change that's all.

Curious on how the brackets will look like. Will it be something like first place vs 8th, 2nd vs 7th? Players at top should have An advantage. World Cup followed a similar format

Will there be a cast for the playoffs? Is there even interest in a cast? I could provide the stream and co-cast, but would need a co-caster that has knowledge about 1on1, since I do not play 1on1 on Fastest. I mean technically I could still cast this alone, if no one wants to, but some expertise would be nice. Would probably be a replay cast, since I know of the scheduling issues within the fastest scene. Just see the clanwars xdd

I think Momo or Seba would be good co-caster

i think the prize pool is too big for rank 1. rank 2 is also pretty good i think this should be 500 for rank 1 300 for rank 2 and 150 for rank 3 its the most fair.
