I want to define competition by videos showing a good competitive match. If you show me a video of a final in which the outcome is an easy 3-0 win then I wouldn't call that competition. If you show me a final where the outcome is 4-3 (looking at reb and vis) then I would say it was competitive. We can argue all day about which one has more competition and we wouldn't get anywhere. If we argue based on videos we still wouldn't get anywhere, but at least there would be a case for people opinion.

My all-time favorite match was actually from mix, the first 5 round final between lia and US came down to ares winning the 5th match by .5. I have watched other mixed matches and I don't recall anything being competitive. people that do the mix have a better chance of putting competitive matches, so then I could understand why they think the way they do.
