The 2:0 for Sturdust increased his chances rather then threw them away. =P you're silly. You seem to have overlooked the fact that only the 2:0 result would eliminate HuK. 2:1 for Stardust would bring upon a 3 way tiebreaker between Stardust HuK and Life. 2:1 for Life would have been HuK advancing 2:0 for Life would have been HuK advancing In the end, it's all on HuK for not winning 2:0 over Heart (which would have giving him a 4-2 score + advantage over Stardust, leaving him with 1st place in the group, and Stardust in 2nd). Him losing that 1 game, plus Life throwing the 2:0 loss in there was the deciding factor between 1st in the group and 3rd. Like I said, no way to defend HuK when he could have won himself a spot in the top two on his own merit, but Life did, in fact, threw HuK's chances without a fight. | ||

I think the winner of the 2 will be favoured to make it to the finals from there. Although MMA has been beasting it up as of recently and I wouldn't be surprised if he defeats everyone in his path either. | ||

Would not have been a 3 way tiebreaker.. Had Life lost 2-1 he would have had a score of 5-3 instead of 4-3, giving him the highest map score in 1st place. Huk would have his map score of 4-3 and Stardust would have a map score of 4-3, letting huk advance off of head to head. But there is no evidence of Life throwing the series. And Huk should not have allowed that second game vs. Heart to happen. | ||

Whether or not it was intentional, he threw the games. Be it a lack of focus or whatever, the term is still commonly used when you play below your level at any random point and lose bad games/matches for the simple sake of not playing the way you should or could have. And I already said that about HuK... | ||

If I were in his shoes I would also think: 1 base baneling bust? Fast hive for no purpose? Are you really trying, Life? They should be using GSL style groups. Would also make the first day a little shorter and less tiring (especially for the players). 5 bo3s per group instead of 6 bo3s per group with possible tie breakers. | ||
