That was one of the worst throw-away series I've seen from a player.

I don't even know how that happens any other way than intentionally. The last game, maybe he fucked up and got flustered. But after gifting IdrA a game, that was so fucking dumb.

No, you lose all respect for yourself by making such a bold statement.

Thanks for making me stay up for this. Total lack of respect for the viewers throwing games like this. Then again I doubt much people have any respect for EG either way so I guess it doesn't matter in the end

This series was a fucking joke, pretty much outplay idra the first three and throw away the two last on purpose. I've been following ben since he owned beta up but that right there was just shitting on the tournament/the followers.

Well, that was sad to watch.I don't really care about the reasons, but a bo5 between these guys with 3 shitty games is disappointing from a spectator's point of view.

The only thing I can think of is that Demuslim doesn't realize what the format is, since the top 4 all go regardless... maybe he figures he's already in the top four and doesn't realize he still has to play in loser's bracket now?

Either way... looks staged, and that's lame. I really hope SotG or something comments :/.

The things is he messed up "gifting" it if that's really what was going on. He was in a good position and pretty much had to make the obvious "error" in order to not be in an advantageous spot.

Did you watch the first and third game? I think you're confused who outplayed who...

The last game seemed a bit sketchy though...idra went a safe 14hatch14pool like he knew a rush was about to come.

I don't know, I can sort of see IdrA not wanting face Minigun again since that's always risky and Minigun generally seems to have his number. DeMuslim seems pretty confident in his TvP so perhaps they planned for DeMuslim to drop down and take out Minigun.

Aside from that, I absolutely can not imagine someone fucking up 2 games in a series that badly.

Edit: Scratch the above, loser didn't even have to face Minigun, has to face Axslav. This makes even less sense considering that the drop down faces another teammate.

Yeah good thing he made that error or we would all be fooled. The SCV rush the game before was so legit

Maybe IdrA wasn't feeling confident playing against Minigun in LB but DeMusliM was. Top 4 gets the slots.

I'm pretty sure I saw someone go up 2-1 in a series and then donate his opponent the entire set.

DeMu obviously gave it to him, there isn't any question about that. I'm just wondering about the motives behind it. We'll find out eventually I suppose.

Kind've a joke if you ask me.

that was no error, he had the bunker done and walked his marines AWAY from the bunker

Regardless of any team politics at work, the fact is the viewers and fans were the losers in that matchup. Welp.
