[POLL] Tour system for finals?

[Cen]

As you would probably guess by now, the final number of countries will be akward (6). You can't make a normal elimination with 6 teams, but there are 2 options avalible. I would like to hear your opinion (or suggestion if you have a better solution).

Option 1: Double Elimination with 6 teams

Option 2: Each vs Each 5+4+3+2+1=15 (x2 or x3 in worst case scenario)

Option 3: Your solution (specify in post below)

[.DeitY.]

option 2. best each vs each

[noel]

2 groups with 3 teams ( 2 matches inside groups bo3 )

winner of group 1 play with 2nd from group 2 and vice versa with bo3 ( semifinals ) and finals bo5.

[Flisk]

Noel's idea is the best solution.

[RaouL]

Double Elimination (Winner bracket and Loser Bracket), and the finals to be Best of 5 with 1-0 advantage for the team in Winner Bracket who reach in finals.

[B4rt0z0]

Each vs each or noel's idea.

[paiNISTHESHIT]

Double Elimination better :)

[Immortal.Dani]

each vs each.

[AleLeLElele]

each vs each sux

[paiNISTHESHIT]

If we play each vs. each it will be a "short" finals. We made all this qualifiers to have such a grait finals in the end. So if you want big finals, make it Double Elimination or it will be just a random tour finals.

[Cen]

actually, each vs each will be quote long finals, do the calc :)

[paiNISTHESHIT]

Hmm myb im missunderstunding. Explain me a bit, is each vs. each same with Single Elemination ?

[Cen]

6 teams

Serbia plays vs all 5, bo3, =15 games max
Romania plays vs all 4, bo3, =12 games max
Brazil plays vs all 3, bo3, 9 games max
Turkey plays vs all 2, bo3, 6 games max
CountryX vs COuntryY, bo3, 3 games max
================================
total: 45 games, which is too much.


That's why Noel's system seems more reasonable.->

Group 1:
Serbia vs all 2, bo3, 6 games max
Romania vs 1, bo3, 3 games max
Total 9 games max x2 for Group 2, winners play bo5
=======================================
total 23 games max

Slight problem for third place and possibility of a draw inside groups of 3.

[Immortal.Dani]

good , noel's ideea is great.

[noel]

group 1 ---------------- group 2

team 1 ----------------- team 4
team 2 ----------------- team 5
team 3 ----------------- team 6

sf bo3

team 1 vs team 5 ( random winner ofc )
team 2 vs team 4 ( random winner ofc )

finals bo5

team 1 vs team 4

3rd place bo3

team 2 vs team 5

[Cen]

what is sf bo3?

[noel]

shadow fiend. j/k semi finals.

[Cen]

If it's each vs each inside groups you can get a draw on the end, that was my point, but we survived on first tour..

[Akhe]

and with noel's idea group 1 can be very strong and group 2 can be very weak, which means that finals will suck, u get my point?
in each vs. each we can see who is rly the best.

there were the qualifications rounds where best teams passed it so whats the problem if u have 2 strong teams in one group, better than the others they will still be in finals...

[paiNISTHESHIT]

It would be another option with vases but people won't disagre on this. (Like champions league ;) )

[mammed]

group 1 ---------------- group 2

team 1 ----------------- team 4
team 2 ----------------- team 5
team 3 ----------------- team 6

sf bo3

team 1 vs team 5 ( random winner ofc )
team 2 vs team 4 ( random winner ofc )

finals bo5

team 1 vs team 4

3rd place bo3

team 2 vs team 5



??

[Sudac]
