Re: A "Big Finish" Worth Fighting Over

My guess is part of the reason we havent seen the "Big Finish" the last 3 years is because it was always a huge point of contention among teams. In 2003 2 teams on the ramp would win the match. In 2004, in quals, and even in elims depending on the quality of the event, two teams on the bar would win the match.

A lot of people didn't like that you could basically score no points at all in the first 1:45 of the match, and then win the match in the endgame 80% of the time.

Though this year the same held true for ramps, depending on how good the tube scorers were at an event.

I think it'd be more exciting to go back to the 2003/2004 format, as long as the objective wasn't a very large percentage of the average match score
