What happened? :p

Xlord was ahead. game dcs. admins handle the situation poorly having players debate it on stream. xlord defends his case. Stephano says take the win

Yes, basically Take/HSC handling the situation poorly which is now causing stupid drama ;;



nah. I agree that it wasn't necessarily a good decicion, but take Take's POV into consideration. He is the Admin and XLord esports dad. Additionally the main sponsor of the tourney is also XLord's sponsor. Take knows that he would be biased in his decision. so he delegated it to someone else. Again not necessarily good, but hindsight is king

The drama is not created by Take but by bunch of teens who already have their pitchforks ready and just watch out for every opportunity to use them

Delegating the decision was fine IMO, but they should not have done it on stream or with either player having a change to be there and hear their reasoning.

Oh my god, every time I see this guy's TvZ I want to puke. It used to be so good, and now look at it. It's like somebody took a shit on the Mona Lisa.


I agree, it's so sad it makes me want to puke. Once one of the best TvZ players in the world, MMA TvZ used to be just pure art. But look at it now, not a single sign of the old Terran mastermind. I hoped he had managed to put his shit together already after the SlayerS drama ended and he got a new team. Also training with Crank, Ruyng, Miya and Heart. Unfortunately it looks like we need to wait longer and see if he returns to his level in 2013. Of course there was some persons like Boxer in SlayerS who helped him a lot, but I'm sure he is able to make it even without them.

Just remember the last time he faced Stephano in IPL4. Just roflstomped him like Stephano was a plat player. Multitasking in Metropolis, 3 drops in different locations + nukes everywhere. Holy shit that was so epic I'm never going to forget it. I think that's the last time I saw him shine.

I'm so sad I'd want to write a book of MMA.

But I still believe in you<3

Players shouldn't have the ability to overturn defwins, it just always leads to mass hate when they don't.

Tell that to MMA.
Had Stephano won against XLorD he would have had a better chance of advancing..

Against someone who had already 2-0'd him...

Yeah, "better chance"


Still a better chance than playing Stephhano

All I'm saying is this stuff always matters. Plus, I REALLY doubt XLorD would have had the smoothness Stephano showed to take the first game. But I can be wrong, I know nothing about XLorD.

rofl, EG CEO said no more eg players for next homestory cup unless they get more professional.

Do you want 3 pro zerg players give their input or 3 bronze admins ?

Talk about going full retard mode over a small issue.

It may be an overreaction but it was not handled correctly.
1) Such a discussion cannot be had publicly.
2) Rules for what can be done (such as extending to bo5) must be written down prior.
3) No input from xlord or stephano should be taken.
4) No player still in the tournament of affiliated with the teams of xlord or stephano should be asked (obvious conflict of interest).

The right way is obviously to have qualified admins make the decision behind the scenes according to predefined rules.

I think this drama had a good effect on the event you gained some backstory for stephano + xlord and a reason for cheer for either of them for the rest of the tournament. It also a had a positive effect on the viewing numbers as everyones love some drama



I'm pretty sure it doesn't work that way. It kinda reflects poorly on the organization of the homestory tournament...not OMGERGZ drama between xlord and stephano...who next foreign zerg bonjwa..no..it doesn't work that way.

MMA did fell down hard in 1 year, no shame in losing to Stephano. But he was so perfect in his ZvT, at his prime i always felt no zerg could touch him. Guess people just learned to defend his drops

well, the general tvz balance shifted massively into zergs favor during the last year. i dont wanna start a round of balance whine, just sayin this might factor into mma's tvz demise.


I highly doubt it, he fell off the map months ago...months ago


His last major accomplishment was winning Iron Squid. But even then, his TvT and TvZ were incredible (his TvP had always been questionable). This was early May 2012. Soon afterwards, the queen patch hit, and his TvZ went to shit. This also coincided with his poor Up and down performance, which sent him down to Code A.

The patch turned his best matchup into arguably his worst. That, plus the drama that was going on, definitely messed him up hard.

I'm sure no one would notice him watching a stream. More likely he forgot to log out on another pc. He was chatting there some time I remember from the stream B PC.

Then why are you adamant about MMA having a better shot against someone he lost 0-2 to?
