Let's assume Nestea wins and their 'mentalities' don't get any affect and Nestea and Byun played exactly that same and Byun wins G2 and G3. Nestea could still win in G4/G5. Because we HAVE seen players derp for 2 games and then make a comeback. And maybe Byun picks a different strategy if the depot was there and wins G1 anyways and still 3-0's Nestea. The point is, there is NO WAY anyone can say with 100% certainty that Byun would have won the series. Probably? Judging from the play, sure. But it was likely that Seed was going to lose vs Symbol when he went down 0-2 yesterday as well. This post says everything that needs to be said. Anyone certain that Byun would have 100% won the series is objectively wrong. The point is, again, that we just don't know what would have happened, and that's why this is such an unfortunate incident. | ||

He thought this map didn't have depots. Some people will say 'dont be retarded all maps need them', but then i can just reply 'why was nestea retarded as well then and not pause' byun isn't the bad guy edit: what is clouds reponse "queens with 5 ground range are also a bug" | ||

Its not a matter 'this might be a bug so im not going to do it in case', hes going to do whatever he can to win | ||

If this is a Kespa game , byun would have been disqualified because he abused a bug on the map that he knew. Aside from the fact that this is obviously not true, I'm pretty sure nobody was in favour of KeSPA's draconian punishments, even in the case where punishment is warranted. By the way, the absence of a supply depot isn't a bug, and it's certainly not a bug exploit, because nothing Byun did could cause the supply depot to be circumvented. It's just that the map editor screwed up a little bit and forgot to recheck his map. Byun took advantage of it because it's a feature of the map, which exists in vanilla Sc2, and has nothing to do with a loophole in programming in the game itself. | ||

That's just nitpicking about semantics >_> I'm sure when people use the word "bug" they realize it's not technically a bug, but it's a convenient word to use, easier to type than "unintended map feature". Though I guess the word does carry a more negative connotation... | ||

If one's already having trouble focusing and feeling calm, and he's been putting a lot of effort into something, and we all know how much Nestea prepares for matchups, something completely unexpected like this happens can easily throw him off his game. the more I think about it the more Im sure that this is the reason why he made so many mistakes in the following matches and didnt look at all like himself. With that said, yes Byun played very well but dont underestimate the mental part of the game Absolutely correct, and it's far more significant on a cerebral player like Nestea. I just hope people don't reduce Nestea's defeat to a bug because I thought Byun played incredible Starcraft today above and beyond Nestea's sloppiness. Byun definitely deserves credit for the way he played and the exploitation doesn't really detract from his victory in my eyes. | ||

Though I guess the word does carry a more negative connotation... Map features are not something that players can cause to occur, though. Further, Gom has within its power the ability to change map features. The reason why bugs are a problem is because only Blizzard can actually fix them, which means that Gom needs to rely on player honour to not use them until the patch is released. In the case of maps, anything which is in the map is fair game, unless it's some sort of programming loophole which gives one player an unfair advantage. The absence of a supply depot (which is purely elective and still doesn't feature on ladder maps) is not something that Byun caused to occur and has nothing to do with an action he took viz a vis the coding of the game, ergo it's not a bug and it's not his fault. | ||

the bunker block is something that has been actively prevented on every map for the last year of competition. it is something that the community has collectively decided is unfair and the maps for every legitimate tournament have blocked it since, including every other version of metropolis. for him to see that and plan on using it is utterly fucked up. its the same thing as pushing a guy down and kicking him in the balls because you realize the ref isnt looking. the only reason ramp blocking isnt explicitly banned in rules is because the community would get stupid about "banning a strategy" and its easily dealt with with map editting. | ||
