People in Chinese forum said that making UF following SF was a scolding decision, making two teams playing 2 BO3 in a row, only making schedule shorten by 1 day, from 6 to 5.
While making Loser Bracket playing in one day gave significant advantages towards WF losers. In China's FGC when LF's winner immediately face WF's loser for second qualifying berthes, only 3 wins, 5 lost, the winners including ASE and Gank with d3ffo.
Ideal schedule:
Day1-2: QF
Day3:SF
Day4:WF,LR1
Day5:LF(BO5)
Day6:GF(BO5)

it would be nice for the pros if there was a bo3 or a bo5 once a day but life aint built like that
you gotta make compromises
this is how its run at the very top and if youre trying to get to the top then its better to start following it as early as possible
pretty sure the pros would agree as well
its just the fans who complain but rightlyso cuz not everything in life is perfect
problem is that:in men's/open VCT competitions had we never see a team needs to play 2 BO3s in a day, but GC teams, which take nowhere near as much physical strength as the men's, to play 2 BO3s continuously. This is completely unfair, don't say that GC is in low attention. East Asia GC is an international tournament which can make great attention. IF the UF was Zeta versus CCG and CCG lost, it would led to great internet violence against Riot.
I belive they copied format with apac
