I will see what happens in G1 and G2 to decide. If I blow him out by 35+ with his full current starters, I will go for the G3. If the margion is less that 25, I will go for the 2 game finish.

well... he also went CT in his last two. I asked both the teams he played. I went normal which gives me a huge advantage right off the bat. I dont hink he would go normal in the second game because he is down 0-1 and needs the win in game 2.


It depends - is his goal winning the series or forcing a third game? I think if he's more interested in winning that he's got to try to give himself the best chance of winning game 3 on the road, and hoping that he can piece together a win at home in game two with the PON. If it's about the economic effects, he definitely puts it all into game 2.

Of course, I'm not sure everyone looks at it this way. I just know that if I lose game one and I can't win game three, winning game two does nothing for me. I'd rather set up to make the best run possible at game three and hope for a little luck at home, rather than go all out at home and hope to pull out the miracle on the road with lower enthusiasm.

Alright, well I will PON this game and see how much I win by. I will have 4 days after that to decide.

With relegation series and finals happening now, I thought I'd bump my series strategy thread, so people can use it if they want.

Copied from a post I made in the ABBL forum earlier today:
But it's so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you: are you the sort of man who would Playoff Crunch Time the first game? Now, a clever man would Playoff Normal even with HCA, because he would know that only a great fool would try to Playoff Crunch Time without it. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not Playoff Normal. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not Playoff Crunch Time.

Thats why if you dont have home court advantage best tactic for game 1 is to shot for a suprise. for example try some weird missmatches, zone defence, suprise with tactic you think you could do better. If you do, you in a better position then.

But if you have home court advantage i think its best to be safe and POC game 1 cause if you lose game 1 you lose home court advantage. I alwats poc game 1 and so far it hadnt failed me. in game 2 i usually pon and try to exploit some missmatches. So far won 3 out of 4 playoff apearances both in 2 games.

personally i wouldnt force game 3 for any costs. cause often people can change defensive matchups and sometimes if he did it cleverly could result in +10 points. also if he tries zone and it works out you can lose. So basicly the only way i would force game 3 is when i am confident i can win against any tactic with any surprises and some ingame traumas. which is likely never:D

I actually think POC-PON-POC is the way to go with HCA. If you get surprised on your first game its going to be a tough match away.

PON-PON-POC or POC-POC if you do not have HCA.

Hi! I made the finals too, so I need some help to finish my strategy.
He CrunchTimed all his playoff matches, I CrunchTimed once, so I have a much better enth.(he played all season normal - I alternated TIE and Normal with 2/3 CT). He has a better 5 than me, but he only has 6 players - so he won't have good GS next week. I won't have problems with GS next week because I have 13 players and I train GS.
My strategy is to play all G1 with 2nd Team, Normal and G2/G3 1st Team, CT.
I want to play G1 with 2nd team because I need good shapes next week and I think that is too risky to play with 1st and reserves because the coach could make some changes to my team(so the scrimmage - that is an easy match - will be played with 1st and reserves) because of the hard match.
So I bet on last 2 matches, when I will have bigger enth. and more good shapes.
Is this a good strategy?
