In this case Solar was just behind in every way with nothing to make TY's job of converting the position into a win in the slightest complicated. | ||

What tangible benefit do you get from playing out that game and still losing, he had nothing going for him to make that a competitive game. May as well leave and get ready for the next series. | ||

Anything beyond that is free wheeling. There's no reason to not keep playing in that case. Sure he's losing 99 times out of 100, but its better than just running your army in and quitting | ||

Sure I'd be surprised if TY pulled out a performance like INno's in NEXT against Dark, but he's more than capable of playing like Dream did a month ago: i d say one game in case caster loses one long macro game to Dark i can see he would 2 rax his way to the round of 4 | ||

Can see it being used as a mind game, particularly against someone who doesn't do as well in offline like Cure. Pretty sure if you have to get admins involved, it would look very suspicious if you can't show evidence of an issue. I'm not saying it's impossible but I feel like it's equally an interruption for both players in most scenarios. | ||

Just pause the game and fix your hotkeys 20 seconds in like what herO did. | ||

It feels like souL almost always gets ahead with them too (though he has been iffy on capitalizing on that advantage such as against MaNa in the TSL qualifiers). | ||
