I think there's a confusion going on right now where people are not sure whether the BO5 actually means :
1: First to win 3x 1v1 wins the set when only one match is going on at any one time
2: All 5 matches are played out and whichever team has 3 or more wins takes the set!
I do think that the current suggested format seems to be the latter? Can someone comfirm? Anyway I do think the 5 matches are all played out is better because
Firstly, it encourages more participation!
Secondly, we can have a higher variation of scores like 5:0 and 4:1 and 3:2 and if somehow the ultimate format determines that each win/loss has a score/points tied along with it, there'll be a better variation of scores to distinguish between each team!
