I hate these new rules. The original rules are way better. With these new rules no matter what if you are wining you can still lose.
On my server people only play in Pashhow Marshlands and Jugner Forest. Its rare that people in the other zone. I have no idea why, but they do. More NA players play Ballista more often and now I don't have to stay up all night to play one match.

Correction To Special Rule
There was a mistake in a particular part of the previous news detailing the new "Best two of three" system. The correct information is as follows.
[Special Rules]
"A team that wins the third match and has the top-scoring player shall be awarded two match points."
It was then stated that in order for this to apply that
" the same team win the first and second matches.
" This statement was erroneous.
The correct condition is as follows:
Regardless of the outcome of the first or second matches, if a team wins the third match and has the top-scoring player, they shall be awarded two match points.
In other words, if the score is 2-0, and the losing team manages to win the third match, then they can tie the game with an overall score of 2-2. However, by the same token, if the winning team wins the third match by the conditions mentioned above, then they can win with an overall score of 4-0.
We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
