TheDwf's head just exploded with that zealot runby.

I mean you can't just probe rush like Naniwa but you can proxy rax or just not practice.

Rain needs to win to make Tiebreakers happen. Fantasy is already eliminated. Rain and Fantasy are teammates.
What do you think will happen?

Because they are on the same team and Fantasy is eliminated if he wins or loses. If Rain wins then rain advances for a chance to get into the next round.
Would you kill a team mates chances?

Rain didn't play all that well in the last few weeks. He's only slightly favored in my opinion.

Which should be enough for Rain to win I'm talking about "letting your teammate win" on purpose, not necessarily this series (although it didn't look good).

1. Rain is known for PvT 2. Its a teamkill where fantasy has nothing to win , and Rain has everything to lose.

Wow, that is horrible... sucky situation.

One serious game for the fans, then throw game 3.

Doesn't Fantasy have pretty good Ghost control?

Probe rushing 1 handed is different. At the time everyone was saying "why didn't just just do a dumb 4 gate or something?" No one would have cared if he just didn't play like it mattered, what bugged people was so brazenly forfeiting the game in such a silly manner in a booth in a broadcasted game.

Fantasy is only floating 700 minerals at the 16 minute mark, that's all the proof you need that this is scripted. In a real game that would be 1600.
|
It's sad that Fantasy winning this 2nd game might actually make the throw accusations worse if Rain wins game 3.
BRO IT WAS SO FIXED THEY SCRIPTED GAME 2 TO MAKE US THINK IT'S NOT A THROW.
Damned if you do...

did FanTaSy even try? (couldn't watch the game)

Fantasy is out of the OSL for sure, Rain has the chance to go into a 3 way TieBreaker with First and hyvaa if he wins. They are both Teammates ...

Dying ghosts make such a good sound.

Rain : "Hey, don't forget to lose !"
