Jeez, Im not watching the final to see 4-7 games of 3 tc boom into siege and castle defense
It's been saying Admiral has +1 streak, which turned out to be true. That was a straight up spoilerThat's actually not what the links said. They said Admiral won his set 4-3 for instance. They were flawed.
And yes robo fixed that anyway.
The streaks were correct, the win/losses were not. In retrospect, it's easy to say this is a spoiler, but if only half the spoiler is right, it's not really a spoiler. And robo fixed it for next times, the profiles are now private. And this was only a spoiler if you wanted to get spoiled.It's been saying Admiral has +1 streak, which turned out to be true.

Why exactly does John the Fearless get to play on 3 of his home maps compared to Ivaylo's 1? That doesn't seem fair at all for a competitive tournament where map preparation has been so highly prioritized.

I totaly don't understand why no one mentioned this after last hidden cup. Since this possibility was exactly my first taught when I saw these forced maps. Last year didn't happen, but now in the big pre-final big anti-climax. Hera played amazingly, but this isn't fairWhy exactly does John the Fearless get to play on 3 of his home maps compared to Ivaylo's 1?

It's unfair to force maps on a series. Ivaylo had to play three John's home map while John had to play one of Ivaylo's hom
Forced maps aren't the issue. Not having an equal number of picked maps per player IS the issue. You wanna have 3 forced maps (#1,#4,#7) in a bo7? no problem... just make sure the rules are written so that games #2. #3, #5 and #6 are split evenly between players.Well that's something that is discussed multiple times every year. T90 likes the idea of forcing the new maps into the sets even if people complain that this might be unfair. I read it dozens of times last year too. And I agree, but T90 seems set on that for some reason.

I think it's fine to have more set maps in a set if you want to ensure some of the new ones are played, but they should have had the players draft 6 maps instead of 8 then. Would prevent an outcome like this.Well that's something that is discussed multiple times every year.
