I've said my piece, so I won't press the issue anymore. I just don't really like the attitude of "Oh, Player X is clearly going to demolish Player Y, so Y might as well give up". That's all. | ||

It's actually because he is an underdog that this is even more amazing. If he kept the two games he just needs to hope for two miracles/all ins for himself and none for white ra. By giving up two games, he limits his "miracle" chances. If a tournament like this where if you can somehow get into pool play or beat a well known player (like white ra!) you can go from no name status to your own fan club, everything is on the line. If it were me against MMA, you bet I would take the two game advantage and cheese every game and hope his keyboard catches on fire and Kespa calls him to forfeit (twice) . | ||

Nonetheless, he showed great manner and sportsmanship. He deserves respects from the community. Good luck in future tournaments, Gimix! | ||

Im sorry but you sir have no idea what you are talking about. Gimix is Top30 NA GM, and with an extended series lead of 2-0 it is entirely reasonable that WhiteRa could have lost the series. Stop being a jackass. | ||
