The situation should have never happened. Players should have zero and absolutely zero say / comments on the outcome of a disconnected match. The tournament admins should have the first and final call on the outcome of disconnects whether its right or wrong in the players mind and that should be it.

We HAVE a program to resume games from replays, don't we?

You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

I very much agree with you XlorD, it was 100 % your win. The after-game situation shouldn't had been shown on stream, but that was pretty much the only mistake that occurred. Both you and Stephano agreed, so that was that.

Glad to see both of you go through.

Also: The HSC has been freaking amazing so far.

You really can't blame Xlord or Stephano for this. Any headaches and stupidity caused by this rests on the shoulders of the HSC admins. Regame or otherwise.

No offence to reddit users, but when was reddit ever happy? They bitch, whine and moan at every little opportunity, be it emailing sponsors for minor stuff, witchhunting players who said something stupid or denouncing the work others put up for the community.. TBH I do not think that decision makers around the esports scene should care about reddit even one bit, they will whine regardless...

The game was not won, no one is arguing that Xlord wasn't ahead. Admins can clearly see that there is a defender's advantage, upgrade advantage, infestor disadvantage, and a base disadvantage for Stephano. There is no way someone can call this game over for Xlord. TLO had it right: if there is a chance the other player can take it within reasonable means, then there should be a re-game.

Note: Players should not decide anything because they cannot be considered objective parties, blind vote or not.

Additionally, Xlord made a fool of himself unfortunately. Quite unprofessional action by many parties.

you cant blame xlord for going up to the *the 3 judges * and admins and be agressive about it by saying *its fucking shit , it was a free win *??well i think you can.Would you ever see stephano do this ?. i think he should lose the game just for such behavior.Seriously who does that

I was going to do the exact same thing in the fight in front of his natural when the game dropped. I would've fight the left side (just a few hydras and roaches) and fungaled the right side (the main army). I also had 5 roaches at his 4th base (it was gone basically) while my base was up already. So the game was mine and I knew that.


Now you say that, but you can't expect ppl trust u. Give you a win assuming you dont make mistakes makes no sense. Sometimes we have seen even top koreans suiciding an entire army engaging in a bad position...everyone can make game-changing mistakes.

So the only wise thing to do is a rematch.

I'm sorry but I have no idea how to navigate reddit, where are you seeing this? When I type in starcraft or starcraft 2 in the search the posts are months old.

Why are trying to justify yourself again? The issue is not if you should have won or not it's your attitude.

The game was far from over. Not a free win.


For example in other sports we have seen crazy comebacks. A 5-0 lead in soccer or ice hockey is considered a "easy win", but you never know until it's done. Or look at the Rocky movies. He gets knocked down several times, and still wins. There is nothing as a free win, or easy win. Therefor it should be a regame.

And only looking from your point of view, and arguing from that point of view makes you bad mannered. There's no way to deny that. Being "competetive" is an expanation for bad manner, but never an excuse. But eventually you'll grow up and understand that sport's important, but never as important as fellow human beings. Unfortunatly in our society we've so many childish humans.

You don't make assumptions, you look at how the game has gone. Stephano had a chance of winning the game earlier with his 2/2 roach/hydra timing, but because of Xlords micro he was able to hold it well and take a significant lead. So, based on what has actually happened I would argue that it would be more likely that stephano were to mismicro or make a mistake than xlord.

I wonder what you said to stephano after he said "congratz" to you. After all he was the one acting with a good attitude during all of it. Not trying to influence the admins decision...

Sorry but your arguments are really really bad. I agree that XLord acted childish but you can't really compare a scripted movie to anything happening in real life.
