Guild Wars 2

I have to say that both days were fun to watch. The double elimination format added a lot of excitement. Personally, I was bored with the S1 and S2 single elimination set up.

It would definitely be good to consider double elimination for future championships!

I agree, the qualifiers were great to watch with a ton of exciting games. Double elimination makes tournaments much more interesting in my opinion so I am slightly disappointed they will not be doing double elimination for the world championship itself (I know it says that it will be double bracket on the website but that is wrong). However with 6 teams rather than 4 it will be much less of a problem.

I can’t wait to see how the meta develops because before watching NA I thought the engi/necro duo would be necessary because vM and r55 played it so well but seeing never lucky do so well without playing that I see that it probably won’t be. Great to see guard being played by top teams as well (finally).

The world championship will be a great event that, just like in the season 2 finals, I think every single team has a good chance of winning.
