But Bo1 is a silly, silly way to be eliminated, also. And this shouldn't be thought of as Bo1, it's a tiebreak.

I'm pretty sure fantasy will not be accused of throwing the game. they are profies. fantasy needed to loose the game and he did. Ofc it looks Ok. They are no idiots. Looks like a normal game. thats why they are pros and it look like this. But its delusional to believe that there was a chance of fantasy winning. OSL is to blame | ||

Wow. (Well maybe not die but should do big damage) edit: You run from the oracle because the oracle loses charge time chasing the probes. It dramatically decreaes the effetiveness with how the oracle works. | ||

Matches have been decided by bo3 in SC2 for 3 years and I've never heard this argument made. Why do bo7 in the finals? It makes no difference if you win 4-3 or 4-0, so you might as well just play 1 match right? | ||

It's ignorant to completely disregard what the OSL and going out 0-3 means to a player like Fantasy. But yes, OGN is to blame for having them play last. Should never happen | ||
