He admitted he should have checked the map pool before, but any legitimate tournament uses up-to-date maps to avoid really stupid strats like what we just saw. It's like getting hired to write documents for a company, and you go into work and they sit you down with a typewriter. When you laugh and ask where the computer is so you can start typing up the documents they need, they just say "should have read the fine print" and walk away. Map pool is not "fine print". It's the map pool. | ||

Can you get charged by laws not yet enacted but are in the thoughts of some politician? | ||

More on this fascinating concept at 11. are you stupid? do you think every single player studies the map pool that hard? you could ask any pro in this tournament, or any pro player in NA and ask them what version they'd think it was of metal, and i bet at least 99% of them would say the MLG/GSL version and not the broken one that is only used on ladder gtfo You think it's hard for a player to PM the tournament hoster and ask what map version it's on? You calling other people stupid is laughable. when every tournament uses a certain version of the map, it becomes understood. | ||

They've admitted they messed up, why cant the incontrol haters see that, and see that this was entirely their fault and that cytoplasm was just being pedantic and pathetic | ||

So really, tournaments and others organizers etc are still making the switch so people need to shut the fuck up and stop acting as if this is still something from the beta that is hindering the game. User was warned for this post | ||

You can't have players demanding changes in the map pool in the middle of a showmatch, no matter how imbalanced the player might think the maps are. There is nothing pathetic about what Cytoplasm did, he played to win and the tournament admins will most likely fix the map pool for future events. | ||

This embarrassment is what helps tournament organizers get thumbs downed and make their events crisper. It's because of this relatively large screw up that the rest of the series' won't have to have their legitimacy besmirched by an idiotic map pool. I'm just sad it took a series deciding freewin to get it into IMBA KOTH's eyes and ears... | ||
