is requiring replays r1 not an advantage to those with byes? obviously a bye is always advantageous but forcing r1 winners to have scouting data is the issue imo.

While I see what you are saying, the goal here is to try out the new rby nu meta and to push the meta forward. So it makes sense to require replays here. The more the better! This isn’t going towards classic or anything so I don’t see a whole lot of harm
 
calling act, opp didnt show up and i gotta eat soon and its a Bo5 so i aint riskin it
(Edit, they gave win)
