SKT lost not because they had a lack of preparation, but because they were the inferior team and hence destined to be Silver KT.

Geez, people need to stop finding excuses for everything that doesn't go their way.


This is what players who know they'll get sent out do:

Player 1 practices for Maps 1-4, Player 2s play Maps 2-7, 3s play 3-7 and 4 play 4-7. He has to practice 10 match-ups in case of random snipes; but will probably need to only focus on 6-7 because of map rotation.

Wooki trained hard to get that all-kill. Give your boy his due.

Edit: OH CRAP Double-Post. Should've quoted this instead in this post

Practising for 10 matchups is stupid. If you read interviews of AK format MVPs in the past, you will see that most of them say they only practiced for the first game, and relied on their fundamentals for the rest. No point caring about third or fourth games that you are unlikely to reach; better to focus most of your energy on the first game.

Discussing warnings and bans usually goes in the Automated ban list thread and the reason is likely the twitch memes and not so subtle balance whine.

Maybe a different era of AKs for me (late-era BW). 1st game AKs had the players saying they practiced for the first match AND for the likeliest match-up of each of the other maps they could potentially play in. Later games simply said they practiced on maps w/ their likeliest match/es.
