As it is the normal Bo5 w/race rules is a great format to determine which teams are the best and most well-rounded, but after a couple of rounds of it WL is a great way to mix it up for just a round. So I voted that I like the 'Traditional Format' the most, even though they both have their pros and cons and I believe they both have a place in PL.
Which format do you prefer? - Page 3

The winner's format feels more like a showmatch, and like others are saying, it feels less 'balanced' in terms of ranking the teams. They will switch back. This season's PL consists of 5 rounds. the first two wounds were regular PL style, the current (third) round is WL, round 4 and 5 will be regular PL style again. | ||

It will probably get tiresome. It would be nice if they switched it up every round, as some others have suggested | ||

more psychological depth, higher quality of games, and it's a joy to watch someone catch on fire and play at levels you would never them to play at | ||

In the traditional format, I was able to take a break from studying/homework/whatever and tune in approximately when my favorites were playing, enjoy their games, and then go back to work. It became impossible for me to do that yesterday since I would basically have to watch the entirety of the event...and possibly not even see who I wanted to see! Still, I voted Winners League, and I thought it was a nice change from the old routine, and as many others said before, it would be nice to have a mix of the two. | ||

But the question is which do I prefer, and the answer for me is the traditional. WL certainly can be fun to watch, but I like to see all the matchups and get hyped for the event, and I can study all the matchups and whatnot. Also I like how in the traditional format the teams are forced to use all the races. But any format gets tiresome after you see it all the time. I wonder if all these people will still vote WL after months of matches as opposed to just a week of them. Probably about 50-50. | ||

I think I'm biased though, since almost every time I watch PL, I'm always eager to see the 4th set, and it ends 3-0 | ||
