I think it's very clear that Koreans try to treat foreigners at least as good, if not better than Koreans. Not to mention free spots into Code A and seeds into up and down and code s. One foreigner gets punished for clearly deliberately throwing a match and suddenly GOM is biased against foreigners | ||

Get over yourself, don't be butthurt that your favorite players didn't go through, they've got only themselves to blame if they lose against someone like InCa. The gap in the wall isn't the suspicious part.. not trying to reseal the wall once breached is. | ||

Innocent until proven guilty. I saw no blatant throwing of the game going on. Pros make mistakes. We've all seen pros make tons of stupid mistakes before, let's not throw accusations around please. These ppl know FULLY WELL the consequences of throwing a game. Match fixing is like plotting world domination to Koreans. They know better than to do it Why wouldn't they, when it can't be proven and thus no punishment can be received, unless they do something ridiculously obvious? It doesn't matter whether or not he intentionally threw the game or didn't play at his best because he was already through even if he lost, what matters is that because of the format he could. It's a bad format that is unfair to the players who don't get to face an opponent who may or may not give it their best because they're already through, and it's a bad format because it gives incentive for matchmaking (that doesn't have to planned) when a player who is already through faces a friend or teammate. I think I'll keep copy-pasting that until the TL community realizes we've gotten bad games and a lot of unnecessary drama lately because GomTV don't care to admit their format is flawed. | ||

Not saying that isn't a perfectly okay strategy, but that doesn't mean Losira/Polt are not Code S level when it comes to talent. Both players are definitely Code S talent. | ||

The results would have been completely different had it not been a format that basically rewards gimmicks.Regardless or whether Inca threw the game or not the vast majority of the games in Up-and-Downs have been universally poor, and the BO1s exacerbate it by heavily rewarding one-time cute builds. | ||

Out of the two Zenio is the better player, but I still think Code A is the place to be. Inca did not throw away the game, he really just is a diamond player with cheese tactics. | ||

Most of these players do not deserve to be in Code S, let alone Code A with the display of poor play they've showcased over the last 3 days. Personally I think the qualification process needs to be a lot more strict. Rofl first people complain that the Code S bottleneck is too tight and now it's too wide? Can't please everyone it seems | ||

Both players are definitely Code S talent. I didn't see the polt game but losira didn't get cheesed. He underbuilt lings to defend 3 quick zealots then died to dts after getting a late evo chamber. Inca's nexus would have only been about a min late but mass lings delayed it longer. | ||

Tell me, how do you sneak a probe back to your ramp when speedlings and roaches are already in your base? I'd say you're already dead. Jesus, people these days, I swear to god. And I honestly thought Inca was gonna hold it off even with the gap in his wall. A void ray almost always guarantees safety. | ||
