Why is this argument even valid? Sure, if Desrow made no mistakes and Apoc did, then Desrow should win. The problem is that both made similar sized mistakes but the map/build give Desrow such an advantage that he won.

If you really want to nit pick, I am sure EVERY player will make mistakes (even Taeja, Inno, etc). So to think that a player has to play a perfect game for balance to be an issue is kind of moronic.

Why does everything have to be argumentative? Both players executed subpar and the one who had the easier task won. I don't see why we have to start a debate.
