But yeah, it doesn't prevent hardware malfunction, it just makes it much faster and much less stressful to get your settings right whenever you sit down. Also very good at inspiring awe. | ||

Wouldn't solve hardware malfunction. Even TI3 had hardware issues despite these kinds of precautions. Definitely minimizes the # of issues though. btw what was done to solve Sans issue? did they give him another keyboard/mouse? or what? | ||

I think Valve was saying the lowest downtime they ever got between games was 2.5 minutes thanks to this. Would at least be a nice change from the comparatively long breaks at Worlds. | ||

If you have an equipment malfunction then you request a pause and the referee will pause the game as soon as there is no action. | ||

The funny thing is, I watched bw for years and I have never seen a case which someone's mouse malfunctions. | ||

We have much more level headed posters than the crazy mouthfrothing ones. If you've ever read letmelose's BW posts you can immediately see that he's one of those sensationalist Korean netizen types which is a real bore. | ||

It gets sort of muddled when there are issues during a fight where one of the directly-affected players is in the fight. Particularly since letting the fight play out to the end before pausing when a player has legitimate equipment malfunction probably negatively affects the outcome of the fight more than a pause would. | ||

To be fair, KeSPA has more experience than Riot. You didn't have ten people in one game. You didn't have keyboards and mice from different regions all being plugged in and out of the same PCs. But yes, the malfunctions seem to occur much more often than they should be. Riot should try and figure out a way to avoid this for S4. Whether it's copying TI3 or something else I dunno.

When you click pause, it doesn't pause immediately and instead pauses 5 seconds later.. and everyone can see that the game is about to pause. If your mouse died or something and you got a pause the other team could easily kill you, or nearly kill you, in the five seconds that you are incapable of moving. | ||

TI2 had very few malfunctions, but given that a couple did occur at TI3, I'm inclined to think that was somewhat lucky. | ||

It works if you have some sort of judging where if it's deemed that the pause adversely affected the outcome of the game (e.g. he died or lost a fight because his mouse malfunctioned), you load from a save. Obviously it sucks to have to load from a save, but it's fairer than playing out the game after that point. | ||
