There were a lot of really exciting matches last year, IMO. Most matches were great in the last 20 seconds, but there were still a lot of really great qualifying matches too. While last year was still good, I agree that I like this year's low-scoring matches better, despite the ties. Actually, the ties were almost more exciting than the 26-1 victories
