It is dumb, but MKP getting a bye would be just as dumb. What if then, in the quarterfinals, Zestkey calls in sick? MKP goes straight to the finals off of winning a ro16 group? No one would take the finals seriously.

PartinG/Flash/TY getting a second chance is only awkward if they beat MKP. If MKP wins, the tourney is still 100% on track.

if Flash wins this tournament it's gonna be shit storm lol

Someone help me out. I recall someone on TL doing some kind of math and figuring out how to keep MarineKing's name as MKP by making him MKP^2. Does anyone remember where that comment came from?

Holy shit!

As ardent of a fan as I am about the Western SC2 scene, I can't help but feel that this is a very poor decision from Rain, particularly given that he had a pretty solid shot at the Hot6ix cup, and his experience in weekend tourneys is uninspiring. He must really be trying to prove a point.

Maybe it wasn't really his decision alone though, who knows.

Rain already did this for an MLG iirc, he got 3-0d by INnoVation in the RO8 and knocked out of code A as a result

Rain is the RAINing champion of Hot6 cup, one of the most important tournaments of the year with a status of a GSL tournament. Why he did that? I point this question to my favorite protoss player in this sport, because he really owns an explanation to his fans! This is just irrational and offensive deed toward the whole society. Of course no additional drama is required, there is always a good reason behind any decision, may be there's some conversation with IEM that we don't know, but people need an explanation. We are not talking about quiting in a group stage, but before a 1/4 final elimination match.

Of course this is an interesting chance for TY, Flash and Parting - the players who really deserved to proceed forward, so I'm happy for whoever wins.
