Yep. Fight for your right. Mad props to Stephano too.

Big winner is Riot though, once again. Blizz big loser. Tournament ends for me here, this is not a competitive Esport.

Snute and Dimaga don't really understand how they are supposed to judge whether the game is a regame or not

Which is why they are simply trying to understand the situation and make it clear what would need to happen for an eventual comeback, and tbh it seems that someone of xlord's caliber is not going to fuck that more than a couple of games out of a hundred, so a straight regame would be ridiculous. If Stephano had not forfeited the right decision would have been bo5 with xlord leading 2-0.

Their faces at the end - everyone knows XLord getting the win was the wrong decision.

Feel bad for the players. Hard to suddenly go super formal in a situation like this when HSC is so informal. Decisions should not have been forced on them so openly, on stream, where XLord can interfere with his (understandably) biased views.

Kudos to Stephano for trying to be a sport, but he shouldn't have had to do that.

I don't know if that's the best idea but it was a reasonable option.

lol exact same engagements, exact same timings, exact same positioning, do you realize how hard that is. You even have to take in unit health into account


Well i mean you could get pretty fuckin close not the unit health prob but # of roach/hydra/infestor/drones/larva/hatches would be easy

edit: you misunderstand, its not the same engagements, its just playing by yourself up the point you were at when it crashed to make the same # of units you had at that point. Same end, different means.

The admins were very weak here. It should have been a BO3 and a regame, due to precedents set by other top tournaments. I accept that this is HSC so slightly different and the BO5 with 2-0 up was an innovative and cool idea, but letting themselves be pushed around by Xlord like that is complete garbage. The player should NEVER influence the decision of a situation like that. Only the plays he/she made before lag should.

Ok I'm so mad right now.

Don't make the fucking players make the decision. NO ADMINS TO DECIDE? Voting would have been even more retarded.

Like TLO said it's not even near sure who would've won. This started to feel so god damn unprofessional.

Also, XlorD seems to be a dick. Well not like I'm surprised, but it's 100% sure I'm never going to like a player like that. Swearing and screaming "I WON THAT GAME LOOK AT IT", seriously? I don't like Stephano that much but jeez, at least he had the balls even though it was wrong as fuck.

My good mood is over and I'm glad I didn't buy the ticket.

You 2 are retards. Stop judging pros for claiming their obvious wins. They are in a competition.


Insulting people? Could you drop any lower?

Obvious win? You don't even play this game

Most people would've done the same so this statement makes no sense whatsoever.

Yet I think most players in a similar situation would have accepted the BO5 solution

Terrible decision, props for Stephano for keeping cool and giving free win in order to prevent drama.
