Or they should have thrown out both Parting and MKP and made the teams re-pick. I mean it's about seeing which is the best team and not the best player anyways.... Who's to say if Parting would have won that he wouldn't have went on to beat everyone else? I say either a BO3 with Parting up 1 game or throw both players out would have been a good call.

wow, did anyone see the come back MKP did against Oz in the first game of the MLG prizefights?

MKP's comebacks are insane...

A regame was the right call. If a player dc's a regame, no matter how ahead one player was from the other, is the most logical solution rather than just giving someone a win. Parting could have easily made a series of errors that could have cost him that game hadn't he dc'd. It's unlikely, but possible. I believe GSTL was correct to call a regame.

Poll needs a "Fu Blizzard giev LAN" option. There was no just call to be made there and Blizzard is responsible for creating the situation.

I think they should have given Parting the win, but at the same time I can't fault Gom for doing a rematch.

The best solution would have been to restart the game from the replay which is a feature I hope Blizzard will implement into Starcraft 2.

I think that at one point into a game they need to completely remove the remake option, like here for example its +25minutes long, oh so many other sports and games if something similar happened the player that can't continue the game would get the loss.
I still think MKP had a chance of winning this game, there have been bigger turnarounds in games but I still think the win should have gone to Parting because of the length of the game.

I understand the call, MKP probably wasent completly out of the game. But Parting got robbed anyway, 95% sure the game was over.

MKP's main productions were fine, Parting was attacking the 3 extra raxs MKP made towards the middle of the map, the rest of his production was safe, and Parting whole remaining army were red/orange hp and would have been cleaned up quickly with Partings reinforcements on the other side of the map and not enough income to even do a full wave.

Wow, nice joke. It's sort of funny how fanbois make more and more ridiculous assumptions every time they add another post.

The problem with this poll is that you have bronze to diamond players weighing in for the majority of it. And those kiddos love to be MKP fanboys because they just spary their shorts for a level of micro that was pretty standard among WC3 Pros. Every single masters player I've talked to about this is fully confident that the game was over, in Partings favor. Anyone looking at the screenshots of the chart for how things were at the end of the game SHOULD be able to tell that it was over. VERY over.

The correct decision would have been made, if it were made by players who know what's going on, instead of, for god only knows what reason, people that clearly did not. Just like this poll

I do find the MKP fanboys annoying...its hard not to picture them on the side of Prime here, saying that a rematch was the correct response, MKP could have won, etc..... Parting seemingly had him in a bad position that would have been tough to recover from and take the win.

The real loser here are the fans and esports in general because of blizzards reluctance to allow LAN. Of course, they are worried about pirates being able to play this on LAN or something and thus pirates bring the whole community down. What other reason could there be for Blizzard's actions?

MKP had a chance to comeback. However, Parting was pretty far ahead (from what I saw) and that is why the rematch is even an issue. LAN play would be nice, but we shouldn't hold our breath.

Definitely think parting should've been given that game.

Objectively I think pPingu's post pretty much sums up that parting clearly was ahead, and while it was possible for MKP to have taken it, that was highly unlikely. I also feel like Parting played better in that game than MKP, but I am personally biased as a P player.

I guess its all about setting a standard. Since no resume function exist I guess calling it a regame was the best choice. BUT I think that it´s sad since MKP simply would´ve lost the game.

Definately Parting's game. The regame was a terrible decision.

I have seen this game before, and it was really epic.

Anyone knows where to find it now? As far as I know, its not uploaded on GOMTV bec. of cancellation. IPL stream maybe?
