look hella slow right or no one can hit three pointers like what is this and then that just how it is and it's normal and that's why it's unfair to say oh man like whatever the the 10th bet like g2 today would own astralis so that yeah because they got to learn off of what astralis did in that era and the teams that came after them you know navi and so on and phase and so on and so forth right and now all that's the base for them is what all these teams
were the creating the meta at the time so you need to look at teams and compare them within their own respective eras you can't use this argument it's like oh yeah but look how they were playing back that's just how it was and in in that time they were able to move the meta forward and they were able to find advantages and change the way people approached counter-strike
and teams, right, with sports psychologists, assistant coaches, and all of that, which is today the norm.
That's why we have it, because they brought it.
Well, yes, but you also get to sell tickets for an extra day, which offsets it.
Yeah, but that's a Thursday.
Yeah, but here's the thing.
The way I would do it is in 2027, I would leave it Friday, Saturday, Sunday because this year you have the major there and people will be a bit... I think it would be a lot to expect that you could run a four-day playoffs just a year after.
Maybe I'm wrong, but let's say...
in 2028 i would probably try it because here's the thing yes it's a work day but if you start the games later at let's say 5 p.m yeah or even six you know or even six um now that would be then the second game could start at 10 potentially i think six is all right this is one thing i think i learned from blast let's just do it let's just run them late
I don't want it.
No, it's not... Fucking do it, who cares?
It's not like ideal.
And not even... Ideal is a bad word.
It's bad for...
the competition side of it, right?
Like with how late you have to play, it just doesn't make sense.
Yeah, I think in the end that's a trade-off that's worth it and teams just need to get used to it.
But the second side of it is, and this isn't as important, but obviously a team that plays quarters on Thursday has an extra day off.
And the team that plays Friday has to play Saturday again.
