No clue about how bad round resets were, but it felt a lot more fun and engaging to watch, though it's brutal on players. Especially in brackets like these. Laz? Yesterday after that last round basically threw himself back and kinda slumped with a "thank God it's done" vibe.
edit: Also kinda crazy how smoothly it all ran. There were obv delays and stuff for the bigger games but there was always one or two going on til the end of the night (tho venue size did create some funny shit like everyone waiting for that fired up vs burnsiders game to finish so 2 other teams could swap out with them)
