it will probably fly in sc2 because esports isn't serious enough yet, but in any major real sport this would be absolutely grounds for fines/suspensions/etc | ||

No other player has any reason to play their best which vastly favors revival (and therefore hurts naniwa). This is an excellent way to make the people in revivals group care because as long as one of them takes a series off revival naniwa is the 16th man. | ||

 Only thing that I could add is that Alliance should've thought to do this as a team. Having someone represent them at Blizzcon is worth the 500$, and they can probably afford that(or more). Blizzcon is serious business, and draws a metric shit ton of eyes.Go Naniwa! | ||

Rivival gets a chance to make enough points to be even with Naniwa which means a Bo5 is getting hold at Blizzcon but only the winner can actually play in the main tournament. Why does Revival get anymore points? I thought he forfeited against puck and therefore lost his chance to gain points? | ||

Personally I don't have a problem with it, but I could see many fans, especially in Korea, thinking this is a little shady. HAHAHAHA. Omg. Alex what did you start man? | ||

I'd rather have the wanted man song from johny cash. I think this bounty thing is awkward. This guy is fucked up. lol | ||

Has there ever been a situation similar to this? I'd be interested to hear it to be honest because I personally see nothing wrong with this sort of thing though I may be overlooking something very important. | ||
