The 2022KPL Spring Playoffs are in full swing, with places in the playoffs' Final Four already locked in three, namely Wolves, eStarPro and GK. Just after the GK team's clean sheet WB, the S/A/B group format has once again caused a lot of controversy, and many netizens believe that the S/A/B format has made the KPL game viewing experience drop sharply.
After the elimination of the WB team, many spectators said that they could not stand the S/A/B group format, because under this season, the strength of the three groups of S/A/B is like a graben, the strong are always strong, and the weaker the weaker. As we all know, there are no more than three teams that are loved by Douban audiences: WB, TTG and Hero, which is what the audience calls the three teams. As early as when Hero fell into Group B and was eliminated, some fans thought that the format of the S/A/B group was unreasonable, which not only reduced the possibility of the following grams, but also made your weak team have no chance to play against the strong team.
But just imagine, you can't even rush out of Group B, why talk about the following grams, with weak grams? And you define yourself as a weak team, why should a strong team pay for your actions? Remember when WB lost to the TTG team in the card race, fans quarreled about the S/A/B group format, but when Warm Sun became the S group to play wild, the fans shut up about the problem of this format. Even if there is a problem with the format of the S/A/B group, making the game tend to be single, this is not the reason why WB and GK play 0-7? Some viewers think that the viewing experience has declined, but compared to watching eStarPro will abuse the B team, I believe more teams are willing to watch wolf star wars, right? Of course, some viewers will say that except for the team in group S, the other teams are not interested. But now the big heroine TTG has also been relegated to Group A, and there is a popular champion AG, and the game in Group A is still quite lively.
It is precisely because of the discussion of sister petals, so some netizens said: "Sister petals have broken the defense." "Let's imagine if we switched to a big round robin, their home team was in the ninth to tenth place, and suddenly a team that locked up the playoffs lost to the weak team, and it was this key point that made her home team miss the playoffs, then they would say that this is a format full of miracles, or will they say that this strong team deliberately played? Think of Wolves, WB, WE and LGD this season, and it turns out that rushing from Group B to Group S is entirely possible as long as you have the ability. It is worth mentioning that the former WE team is not interested, and after getting the top six this season, it has also received two sponsorships, which is the role of reinforcement, which also shows that the performance and ability are the right to speak. Although there are many drawbacks to the S/A/B format, this is also the most suitable KPL format at present, after all, there is no better format for the time being. However, no matter how the format changes, the team that can win the championship will certainly not be affected and bound by these formats.
