The Big Brass Revival Rules and Announcement (First Tournament w/ CASH Prizes)
Dementio:
I have a question regarding the finals: The entire tournament is double elimination, except for the finals which is just a basic bo5. The whole point of double elimination is that teams need to lose twice in order to be out completely, but according to the brackets, the team that makes it to the finals with no losses is out after losing only once in the finals. Is that intentional? Shouldn't there be another set in case the finalists lose once?
Keyvias:
This is intentional and was a choice that was debated behind the scenes.
The goal of our double elimination was a couple, make sure the best teams were in the finals, and provide the best opportunity for the best team to win the whole thing.
The best of five we believed should give the opportunity for that best team to show themselves and be more interesting to viewers than 2 possible best of 3s.
I hope I explained the reasoning well, but if not just let me know.
Guagadu:
The team winning from the top bracket should at least have some sort of advantage. If having two individual bo3s less interesting than a bo5, the top bracket team should at least have a one-match advantage in the final, such that without any matches played, they would have the 1-0 lead in the final. The way it is right now, the team in the finals from the lower bracket is given an advantage, though the top bracket team is the one who should get an advantage.
