What happened to Max and Feliks?

 

[Robert Marik]

I think that all were great. Including Max and Felix. But Felix got +2

I think that all were great. Including Max and Felix. But Felix got +2

It didn't even make a difference cuz it was his worst solve. Top 6 were all within .11

poor max he got first place in the first 3 rounds but dropped to fourth on the actual round that mattered...

My only question is Weyer Max or Feliks not on the podium?

Sorry not sorry.

I know right. If Felix hadn't gotten a +2 he might have won

That sucks for Max, being just 0.02 off the podium. :/ And also Feliks and Seung-Hyuk, so close. RIP.

Also, who thinks max will be the first ever 3 time US national champion?

I know right. If Felix hadn't gotten a +2 he might have won

Feliks' +2 was on his worst solve, so it made no difference that it was a +2. Even without the +2 he was not on the podium.

In my opinion, with the times as close as they are, an average of 5 is no longer sufficient to determine the true champion. Ao12 is needed for the final (only).
