Dat pause. I just see the situation for what it was: shady as fck. No whine. Just saying it. TY changed the build order.

Well my personal tinfoil hat theory is that TY paused the game because he was trying to build/queue more units but his keyboard didn't respond anymore so he started floating 700/500. He also didn't type pp, so maybe he even paused with his mouse.

"Tactical pause" suspicion is the mirror-matchup version of balance whine.

Or a Protoss late game nerf, something like HP of interceptors nerfed from 40/40 to 35/35.

herO and his tactical pauses from Proleague days. ouch

At around 11:52 TY stopped spending his money, over the next 10 seconds he went over 800/500 resources and below 100 APM. That just wouldn't happen naturally to a player like TY.

The game was resumed from 11:52 which is the exact time that the issues appeared to have started. TY didn't change the build order at all, he just actually started making things.

Now I agree that pauses in general have an unknown impact on the game. Some players will be put out of rhythm by it and may even lose as a result. But you can't call a pause suspicious when there was clearly something going wrong

whether TY did it deliberately or not is irrelevant.
that delay gave him time to assess Gumiho's attack, otherwise he has seconds to react

He's a progamer, it doesn't take him more than a few seconds to figure out what to do in that spot. Odds are he knew what to do already and got stopped by his keyboard not working. Not the other way around.

You realise TY was kiting and following Gumiho's army the entire distance across the map right? He didn't just have "seconds to react" to the situation.

It wasn't even that great an attack or allin either (three tanks and a bunch of hellbats), TY had more than enough army and production to hold it. If TY was really willing to pause and assess a situation he wouldn't have done it there.

is what speculative and unconvincing looks like. He wasn't even ahead in the game yet you claim he was robbed.

Maybe it would have been more fair to redo the game entirely but if both players agree to resume game from 11:52 I see no reason to object any further.

that opinion is too strong, but my point is that it's unfair to Gumiho.
"ahead in the game", yes, because when you're ahead, it 100% means auto-win? c'mon

Do you seriously think the pause game him a 100% auto win?

Gumiho wasn't robbed of anything. He had no literally no advantages that the pause could have cost him

i meant my opinion ("Gumiho was robbed") is too strong.

you're just undervaluing the element of time and calculation. any chance Gumiho had was gone. that's what was truly robbed: a chance to comeback.
what do you think TY was doing during that gap? twiddling his thumbs?

Let's say it was legit. His keyboard was broken but he uses his mouse and stoped the game right before the push/attack. Gumiho cut off TY's third base. TY kited so hard and turned back with all of his units.15 min pause to change a wire/ a keyboard? Ooook. But, when game was resumed TY changed the build order. And also he sent a group to intercept new hellions/tanks. HE counts the numbers. It was unfair moment (at least).

The correct approach would've been cancelling the match and letting the winner get determined by a coinflip.
A coinflip is 100% fair and unbiased so no player would've gotten an unfair advantage.

Absolutely. In fact, this approach should be used in advance for the semifinals as well. For far too long have we let the abilities of players corrupt the cleanness and fairness of our game.
