Not a theory. I'm at the event, and friends with Suppy. Him and team EG were shown the WCS bracket 2 hours before the event started, while everyone else didn't know their opponent until 10-15 minutes before it began. As for whining, Illusion and others were annoyed too. | ||

Are you seriously suggesting that Idra is doing well in the tournament because he knew he was against Stalife earlier than you knew you were against Vibe? | ||

And I doubt he could predict his loser bracket opponents. I don't see how he could profit from seeing the bracket there. (Suppy could with difficult first round opponents) | ||

It can't completely explain why Idra has done well. In fact, the biggest advantage is probably psychological. Still, it is unfair, and it shouldn't happen. Everyone above me seems to be pointing out that it's not a tremendous deal, and not mentioning that it's undoubtedly unfair and should never happen. Frankly, you should be thanked for bringing it up. | ||

Considering MLG isn't very organized (we still having issues with the open bracket?), it's more like the information is available but not easily visible. Maybe you should've asked, goswser. | ||

Killing his own hatch didn't phase Idra either. | ||

Your intuition is terrible. No it was not available, and no, me asking wouldn't have told me anything. Maybe you should listen to someone who is actually at the event andn stop being an idiot. And me and idra are not chums, but that isn't the point and has nothing to do with what I am saying. Obviously it isn't game changing against Stalife, but that isn't the point. My other post was just taking a shot at idra by the way. | ||

Also I probably didn't reveal what I said in the best way. I've had a long day and after it dislike idra more than before. So sorry for taking a shot at him, I apologize. | ||

Honestly I have no idea why. Thanks a bunch for the information. | ||
