What is your opinion about strategy? From now on there are two situations. You either won your first game, or lost it.

Won first game

1) Crunch Time all the way
2) TIE second game, CT third one
3) TIE all the way (don't want t be in division I :))

Lost first game

1) Crunch Time all the way
2) TIE all the way (don't want t be in division I :))
3) TIE and pray that your oponent plays option number 2

I wouldn't disclose my opinion if I had one, because I am in the middle of the Finals and my opponent would probably be very interested in my opinion, too...

But fortunately I have no opinion but rather some general views on the issue:

1.) Analyse your opponent. Analyse your opponent. Analyse your opponent.

2.) With a superior motivation (compared to my opponent) I would rather be willing to CT all the way than with a low one. But I also very much like the south-European approach to simply CT, no matter what.

3.) TIE only if you can afford to lose and are sure to win the rest. TIEing is likely to lose. Do not die in beauty...

Basically TIE in Finals can rather help to lose than to win. I would consider it as an outsider option.

Edit: CT and TIE are ment as Playoff-CT and Playoff-Normal.
