EPTIMO poor way to handle it, there's no way TT1 won't be tilting during his series with DRG, so quick 3-0 probably incoming

rofl, that sir is a victory. lol @ people saying they can't overturn it because someone fucked up with the tiebreakers. It's just as fucked up to have someone mess up and make TOP and DRG play by accident as it is to have TT1 and Gatored have to regame because they weren;t supposed to play each other in the first place. | ||

They should apologize to DRG for messing up and having him play the wrong opponent, not cancel the result of a game already played If the game is in the wrong part of the bracket though, nothing can be done. It sucks. Certain seeds have to play certain other seeds, even one wrong match completely F's up the brackets. Edit: I agree with the guy that said TT1 should get top 4 prize money though, it would make up for their error in my opinion. | ||

Is it more unfair then DRG having to play harder opponent when he ended up 1st in the group ? Sticking to system is better as one way or another you are being unfair to someone, so at least it is according to rules. | ||

Im pretty sure they wont ever ever make the same misstake again. Also i get to watch DRG play again so im not that dissapointed tbh! :D | ||

I mean I hope that every league would do as IEM just did. you just proofed my opinion of the NASL once again. IEM is doing the best they can after this very bad mistake and they handled it as best as possible. | ||

Is the NASL guy seriuosly criticizing such a well organized tournament as ESL? Mistakes happen, at least things like that happened to them only once. With NASL it was fail all the way. | ||

Not saying that it was a good thing BUT it is announced AND fixed. Why are everyone so pissed about someone getting to the semifinals even though it was a mistake? The player who won ( in this case TT1) got there by wrongful means, and that is just wrong, better make it right and move on imo. | ||
