Can't believe BeSt lost to some scrub in MSL Prelims....PvP.

I think Best didn't practice for the MSl and was totally drunk or something,he wants to concentrate on the OSL and PL,or at least I hope so,because losing to Inuyasha or what the fuck his name is is really embarassing,especially that he is a KTF toss. Best is really cursed wtih KTF tosses,he lost to Tempest. It's a shame,because they are terrible.

I think it's because he did the same BO on Medusa, again, and got owned, again.

Bisu had a disadvantageous BO on Medusa against FREE and WON! I can't believe how the best PL player can loose in MSL prelims

But let's not get carried away. Best not qualifying for the MSL is not a tragedy given the fact that he is a seed in OSL and will create a gruop,from which he'll probably qualify. And Medusa is only one map,and he lost anothr map too. I think Best wanted to participate in only one league,and he chose OSL because he is already seeded in it.

Talking about not getting carried away...are you really suggesting BeSt dropped out of MSL on purpose because he wanted to play in only OSL? Are you insane? Man, I have a headache all of sudden.

I heard that was a rule back than in SKT. You had to choose one SL you focus on, and PL. Cuz if you were in both SLs than oyu hadnt really time to PL. I dont say it's the case though, just it may be.

Well,not on purpose,but I think he didn't practice for that too much. He was knocked out of the last MSL too in the prelims,so I think he doesn't really take it seriously. What I wanted to suggest with my really stupid comment is that Best didn't start playing bad,he just didn't take MSL seriously.

That's what happened to Bisu this season, and T1 probably dropped at least 1 set because of him being unavailable for so many PL matches. Even if it was an unwritten rule, players have obviously broken it.

I don't think it's out of the question.

For example, the MSL offlines were the week of the GGplay Iris OSL finals and both dropped out 2-0 in the first round. I know that's a different circumstance, but considering Best has finished 2nd and top 4 the last two OSLs, I don't think it's unheard of for him to focus on one starleague and Proleague, considering it's his responsibility to carry the team.

PS I'm not a Best fan, despite my T1 tag.

If BeSt didn't want to participate in the msl he would not show up on quals. Is there anyone really thinks he lost on purpose, flush a LOT of kespa points down the toilet along with some of his progamer reputation and PvP powerhouse reputation? That's insane talk.

Okay,I'm just desperately trying to find explanation. He can't lose to a lame KTF toss if he played with everything he got. He just can't.

I'm pretty sure offline qualifiers don't count towards kespa, and I doubt many care about his progamer/pvp reputation re: offline qualifiers except for us.

But earning nothing from the next msl season does hurt a lot, that's what i was trying to say. Pretty sure these losses counts too, since they were official matches.

bo3 is a bit random... Firebathero lost 2-0 to terrible Bogus not so long ago, because of the cheeses. Best just choked, like Jaedong when he didn't make it to the autumn osl.

I think Best's opponent knew what BO he would do on Medusa, since he only seems to do the one. Jaedong's opponent Han played spectacularly as well, Jaedong didn't choke, he just got outplayed.

Actually i think Best sucks by itself and its not the stupid rule because he cant live up to the standards or expectations.
Last season SKT werent allowed to play in GSL and what Best did? Choke on OSL kneeing in front of (Z)July. Or what (P)Bisu did last season? Being humiliated by almost every zerg he encountered and being outplayed by (Z)Luxury in the ACE match vs OGN and wasting the chance of getting to finals.

Best simply sucks, only the myth is about him. "The god of pvp" lost to (P)Stork and was outplayed by (P)Tempest and Ynyeon (or whatever his name is) who are not top players. Next PR Best should be way under (P)Kal, or (P)free, or JD or (T)Flash.

Also, i disagree with FS: PR is not about being spectacular but having good results and being spectacular same time. It is enough to remember the dispute about Best vs (P)LuCifer or (P)LuCifer vs (P)Pure last season when (P)LuCifer had similar streaks with those two, and was pure fun to watch (mass templar drops etc) and he never was in PR.
I have the ultimate answer, i seek the ultimate question
