I'm from Russia and I feel soooo salty atm.
There is no way I can call it fair draw...
And also that attitude from foreigners what makes me even more sad. Smth like "Hahaha, eat that, russian scum, you deserve it."
Where is that coming from? We all people, we don't chose country to be born, we all love SC2 and doing the same thing. Please, be a little more tolerant. Thank you

Also, somehow, I lost respect to Polt. I know it's totally not his fault. But still...

#Strange winner. Why rematch? Why TIMER in tournament? Where are admins comments? Where public information about that MADNESS?

You think that you cool and prestige tournament, Dreamhack? Looks like not, in fact.

Give for us information!

Lol, are all the Russian folks being directed to complain in this thread or something?


And no, the countdown wasn't forced by an admin. It's an in-game feature to prevent draws. It's been there since Wings of Liberty.

this timer is for ladder games only, why the fuck it was activated in a tournament game? another fail from many fails from the admins of dreamhack, you never see that bs in korea and thats why they are better than the rest of the world on the other side...

That feature should be disabled in tournaments (and was disabled some time ago).

Dreamhack admins are not doing their job... I remember MarineKing vs Parting game. GSTL admins 30 minutes were taking a decision. Dreamhack admins made the wrong custom game and made decision by 1 minutes without any reply to casters.
Maybe regame was only option in this situation. But admins not even think about something else.

I am totally pissed of situation in 5th set Polt vs Strange!
I saw the game. I saw the monet when Polt got 1 medivac and 5 marines and factory as the only one building.At that moment Strange got 6-7 stalkers, 1-2 immortalls, 2-3 sentries, 2-4 zealots 1 void ray as anti air killer and a lot of structures. Then I saw all Strange's stalckers atack all Polt's forces.
But then some ridicolous stuff happens. The game has just been TIED!!!!!!! because of no damage rule.
Dear organisators stuff!!!!!
Why this rule is working on WCS series tournament!
Why do you declare regame on autorian manner and say nothing to russian language casters when they asked your reasoning about this situation?
What is your reasoning on regame in this situation?
You have just pissed off all viewers on russian stream who saw Strange victory and then regame with no reasoning!
I believe those actions are cruciely painfull to all Starcraft 2 LotV community in such hard time with several matchfixing scandals!
i believe your actions dishonour Starcraft 2 LotV cybersport!

they probably didnt want polt to throw his game away to strange, so a regame was set (without telling anybody anything whatsoever about anything) he could easy bet against himself on this one and join life & yoda & co afterwards lolz

ps: sarcasm and ironie is included

Either that or one guy made many multis to complain. Either way its amusing.

Strange knew it was on a timer for the draw. It's his own fault for being passive as fuck.

Can't say I've read the entire WCS rulebook and i doubt you have either.

Strange knew it was happening during the game. Blame him for not going for the win.

It's a well known in game feature, I think there is a rule in WCS that states that you are playing Starcraft 2 and since it's a Starcraft 2 game rule you don't have to say anything about it.
It is that simple. There is even a box telling you that you got x minutes left.
Why do you want to cheat just in order to get Strange to qualify by talking about WCS rules or whatever?
Win it fair ^^

Strange should receive the money and WCS point he would have from a victory it would solve a lot of the problem and it would be a nice PR move from Blizzard. I don't think anyone would say he don't deserve it.
