In the end we have some unknown progressing farther into the tournament than he otherwise might have if the error had not occured, and Miya getting dropped from the tournament having started in the winners bracket and only losing one match, rather than two. | ||

Who knows, maybe Miya isn`t salty about his own boss not defending him. | ||

Admins need to be informed and give correct information. Correct decision, imo. | ||

Just because he is unknown doesn't mean he deserves it any less, it's a bad situation and MLG is to be blamed. | ||

I feel like she should be acting in the interests of her own players regardless. MLG should take the fall for whatever decision they make. Who knows, maybe Miya isn`t salty about his own boss not defending him. I don't know. But since the second match between Demuslim and Moosegills had already started, there wasn't a lot that could be done that wouldn't hurting someone. MLG took the hit and fired one of their staff, which is never a fun thing to do. Miya had to go to the losers bracket, but I get the feeling that TB and Genna were not wild about screwing over other players for the sake of one of theirs. Miya may not have been wild about the idea either. It sucks, but after all this is done, MLG, Axiom and EG all have to deal with each other later on. Its not like they can ignore each other or just walk away. Burning bridges and being unwilling to compromise is generally a bad practice, so I am glad they took the route that they did. | ||

In my part of the real world you don't do one mistake (which btw is not a big one, just had big consequences) and get fired. Every court here would punish the employer. What we don't know is, if there is much more other mistakes/problems with his work before. And the term "terminate" might be the correct one for the US; it would not be in many other countries, so maybe that's part of the complaints about the term. No company would publicly brag about "we fired the one responsible" here either. Different cultures I guess. | ||

I don't really need to know they fired the guy to be fair, but i don't think it's too much. It's not only compromising the tournament brackets a huge misstep, it also screws players and if left unpunish could over time, become a problem with admins doing that kind of stuff to give better chances to other players on purpose. | ||

MLG wants to be a premier hub for esports and if this type of error is allowed to go unpunished you're going to see more of the same old. It's about time MLG turns the corner. | ||
