Thing is, OptikZero had no army, and Sheth could arguably have busted him. I'd give Optik an advantage, but it wasn't an impossible game. I hope FXO has a clear rule set for a mess like this... | ||

Sheth was aiming to do damage, that much was sure. Remember, from afar those hydras can take out those gateways/forges without being hit by cannons. Furthormore, the majority of optiks' army as far as I could tell were phoenixes, and just started getting other stuff. I think he could've won. | ||

I'm pretty sure he had a ton of chargelots and vrays back there, was looking at the production tab throughout the game. edit: typo | ||

Protoss had 7 gates and VRs/lots, with phoenixes to pick up hydras. | ||

I'd give Optik an advantage, but it wasn't an impossible game. I hope FXO has a clear rule set for a mess like this... As they are teammates it's easier - the manner option is to regame. Had they not agreed to something like that the replay would be viewed and it had to be CLEARLY in favour of one player (as in, you could replace them with a platinum player and they'd still win it) to award a win. I feel giving a win before the game is over is the greater evil than taking an advantage away from a player in most cases. The point is to determine the better player so if the person with an advantage can't do it again they may not have deserved the first win (doesn't apply when they are cheesed out of course  )! | ||
