EPTThat game was of NO USE. It is like a winner league where someone all killed and they continue until the 9 matches are done...Why would anyone bother to play well as it is not of any use.

Coca/Byun is so different to this, they actually asked if the other could leave, and they did, Naniwa had just had enough and lost the game, that's different. | ||

Leave the guy alone. if he plays for a team then hes not only playing for himself, have him quit his team and play for himself and ill agree with you. His team relies on sponsors and fan support to pay his salary. And the sponsors rely on fan support to pay the team money. | ||

There's a difference between 6pool and 6 drone rush, one has a chance of winning, also Idra in those games tried to micro and such to win with his units instead of amove -> AFK Oh but to this match, seems like Polt made the standard amove into PF-mistake. | ||

Coca's was for something of value, a code A seed. Naniwa's had zero reward for winning other than showing spoiled children on TL a game. | ||

I think there was stoke vs chelsea whereby stoke played all weaker players as they felt they would lose... and kept their 1st team rested for the next game... This is throwing a game No... not it's not. You see, there's a purpose to that. They felt their A squad would surely lose, so they allowed their B squad field experience against a very strong team. That's really important experience. You know what a CHAMPION would do? A) Not be affected by being 0-3. B) Realize his responsibility to his fans and the people that have given him the opportunity to play in the tournament in the first place. C) Take all the time he can possibly get to play against top players on a televised stage. Everything adds up - sure as a 'typical' SC2 players in diamond+ league it's reasonable that you wouldn't play out a game in some online tourny for 20 bucks that doesn't 'matter'. For a pro, playing in a tournament, throwing a game makes you a joke. Not only does it speak volumes about your mentality, but it flat-out disrespects all of the effort that's been put into place to host the tournament. It makes him a joke. Doesn't matter if the game is for 'something'. You're payed to play. You're payed to produce top-quality games. To gain fans, both for yourself and your team. To carry and represent yourself like an adult and a MAN. | ||
