It's totally in his right to give Kas the win, and admins do have the right to find another solution so viewers are happy. Of course, it's sad because you don't see more Stephano games, but it's noone fault here  | ||

The timing of the tournament was known beforehand, and the only reason it's late is because they were waiting for Stephano. If Stephano is unable to manage his time well, yes, then it's really unfortunate he has done this. Stephano's entirely at fault here, and yes, it's a pretty ass-ish move. No one forced him to play 12 hours, he controls what tournaments he enters and which he skips. It's on him, or his management, to choose how to best spend his time. | ||

Understandable choice by Stephano, understandable reaction from the organizer. | ||

I feel like he respected Kas too much to all-in him 3-4 games in a row, which is what he did against Illusion, but even so, 3-4 games of failed all-ins would've still been better for the organizers than a w/o win for Kas. | ||

But it seems quite obvious for the organizers to want a final match. The real error was letting Stephano delay the games vs Illusion, so everything was delayed as consequence. Well, it's a lesson for the future. | ||

He wanted to delay the whole tournament (after already delaying it, mind you) until tomorrow (keep in mind this tournament run organized barcrafts) and when he obviously didn't get his wish he just resigns. A total ass. | ||
