The rules were poorly designed for bo3. In a bo3 more twc vs twc should he allowed. The rules are ok for a bo5/bo7 because if if you lose the forst 2 games u get to play another twc civ. But ye :/...

There is one BO3 round in this event for that reason.

The solution isn't to have worse players play worse players and better v better. It's to realise that it's how tourneys work and hopefully the less experienced players learn something from the experience and maybe enjoy getting to play someone of a skill lvl they would almost never face not in a tourney.

But there is a solution. It's to give top seeds a bye to the second or even third round. Imo this should be standard procedure for every event including the small ones.
