MarineLorD and DnS disqualified from Challenger - Page 3

Starting on Page 7, using the phrase, "Welfare Circus Series/System" will result in mod action. It breeds negativity and it's just generally a stupid thing to say. All in all, please stop discussing the WCS system, this thread is about the disqualification.

1 all in, 1 normal game and a lose for DNS. The all in is a 3g double zealot into adepts without msc/warp gates.

That explains it ^^ Cheers.

So weird they decide to only rule win trading on the eu ladder and not on the na (if there are any)

This. Like so much troubles for just one win overall, which if removed does not take him out of the top16?

Okay, so I call it bullshit. The ladder race as it is designed is forcing palyers into crazy all-in short games, cause they need a lot of victory in a a very small amount of time. There is no way you go for a late game plan in this context.

Good luck then finding out which, of all the <5 mins games there must have been yesterday, are the ones where the looser didn't put enough effort into trying to stay in game.

You can't just take a random game like this and disqualify 2 players, just because you fell like to.

edit : typo and punctuation to try and make it clearer.

There was only 10 point difference between Top 18 and Top 8. Assuming the accusations are true, DNS got 27 points from those 3 games and he would have been in rank 19 if he did not get those points.

This is why we need kespa to take over the foreign scene


though i'm not gonna lie, the first thought that went through my head when reading the thread title is "marinelord has korean origins?"

edit:

ps deacon, i disagreed with you in the kespa thread but i'm agreeing with you right now. wcs welfare is a fucking joke with joke players who don't know what it means to compete

"win-trading" is also just a pretty word for match-fixing btw

This is so good I;m so much smiling

The sad thing is: if I wouldn't care, I would just stop visiting teamliquid.net. I care so much since I loved this game and devoted so much play time and viewing time to it. What this game has become, what the WCS series has become just makes me sad. It's like watching an old friend die slowly from a wound that his father inflicted. It's so ironic that the foreign scene gets gifted a whole tournament series and keeps shitting on it by balance whining, and, in this case, cheating. I still cheer for the likes of guys like Snute that devote a lot to the game in a great manner but there's so much toxicity and salt in the foreign player base that it's fucking unbearable.

MMA's retirement precisely marks the point where I lost absolute (positive) interest in StarCraft II.

Remember that they've access to way more information that we do. Based on the historic it looks ok, maybe the replays/logs are telling a way different story.
