It's bad, but a this point if you're expecting to never have to deal with technical difficulties, you're in for a bad time. Technical diffilcuties and stuff are exclected but that was way worse than normal... Inno ran into technical shit at gsl and dealt with it but there comes a time where you can't expect a player to play anymore. Like when the ball deflates in football and imo that was one of those situations | ||

The fact that Inno did not have a second keyboard in reach does not speak well for him. A Pro has to be prepared. Had that happened to TLO, he would've reached into his backpack for the second keyboard and is ready to go. A boxer should also not have to deal with a cut and blood in his eyes, but the second better has stuff ready to fix it, if it happens. If Inno had been prepared for the situation of his keyboard breaking, his mentality would've been fine. Sounds harsh and it was very unfortunate and I feel very sorry for him, but I think that's how it is. | ||

But Taeja basically played the same before and after the downtime while Inno was rattled. I dont count the loss against Inno, but I do count the win for Taeja because it showed that strength of focus. | ||

Like when the ball deflates in football and imo that was one of those situations Both of those guys got screwed hard. Every single game has pauses, crashes and hardware failures. Often at critical moments. Edit: we got screwed too. It seemed like it was taking a toll on the players. The difference in the skill displayed in game 1 and the rest of the series was pretty large. We maybe could have gotten more games on the level of game 1. | ||

Dont really reflect on Inno's skill, but showed Taeja's mental strength and focus were better was basically what I got out of that situation. I agree Taeja is probally mentally stronger but this situation went to far to give a legitamte result imo. Replay it and Taeja 3-0s Inno i can live with that Taeja is a monster but I feel robbed of a series and Inno got the short end of a shitty situation. | ||

Like the whole nothing works and you wait an hour shit | ||

I wasn't able to watch this series live, but it really sounds like Blizzcon missed out on an excellent potential series. It really saddens me that SC2 has been out for more than 4 years, and while this problem may have been a hardware problem, integrity of the tournament is still at risk due to these problems. It is really disappointing to see one of these players have to lose after so much downtime and to have to maybe put an asterisk next to the series. TaeJa and Inno definitely deserve better than that. | ||
