doesnt change the fact that he gave him a thumbs down in the first place oO
But wasn't Naniwa was doing some serious BM shenagins before the match?
no. e:and the gg thing is meh he "g"d after the second game so that's something i guess. it's not like he flamed him or something, so no need to thumbs down.

Polt has yet to drop a series, and because he doesn't get the double-elimination, MLG compensates by giving him an advantage.
It's the fucking playoffs
no one gets map score compensation if they win more than another in groupstage (yet both can advance together from a group into playoffs)
Sad that its an extended series. Takes a bt of the excitement out of the match, but maybe nani can still make it interesting. That said, i hope Polt takes this!
If you don't want to watch, basically Naniwa comes late for the match, sets up at a different booth (Polt was already setup), and MLG admins had to ask Polt to move b/c Naniwa wouldn't. I'm getting that from the interview/reddit so no idea how accurate everything is.

"I'll be here all week folks, try the wheel!" was a great follow up. Also, I'm on board with anything that makes Day[9] cackle uncontrollably.

I would say that the 5 fps stream takes more excitement away than the extended series
