It was still hilarious, everyone just got a little peeved that Day9 went a little nuts with the unstoppable and uncontrolled destruction. Storm map is going to be amazing. Edit: They had 45 minutes tops to play game three. | ||

He goes all the way from Korea and important practice just to have Day9 take away any chance to win. Ruins the whole point of the randomness and fun of the event when Day9 just decides to hand the other team a win. -_- | ||

I'm also surprised incontrol made a broken promise of announcing whether stephano would join eg or not if he were to win. That was just stupid. | ||

Basically, Day[9] ignored the audience and spammed infestors to Bling's team two games in a row which effectively decided the game instead of letting the players deal with the catastrophes and try to use them to their advantage. Bomber showed initiative in adjusting his game plan to his advantage (a 3 SCV rush to destroy a nexus during the mutation spawn), but then Day[9] gave the other team infestors to keep them from dying, but ofc, super infestors OP. The game before that Day[9] gave Bling's team 11 infestors as a panic button move when he accidentally killed Bling 1.5 minutes into the game by swarming him with critters. It was really just Bomber getting shafted despite showing really good adaptability and excellent, creative play and being the favorite of the audience (whose input Day[9] should've listened to). The point of the tourney is to have fun, yeah, but it's also to not leave the audience with the feeling that the players can do absolutely nothing in their power to win, no matter how much they adapt. It's a bit of a problem when one team's fate is decided by Day[9]'s decision to spam as many "powers" as possible. The ones on today's map basically spelled instant death for some players, unlike the ones yesterday, which you could recover from. | ||

Before people start hating on Day9 they should remember that he is human too and doing what he does is not easy and can be very stressful. He did the hosting, interviewing, casting, game manipulation, taking in polls, interacting with the audience and players constantly. I don't think people give him enough credit for doing all of these things while being entertaining. I think he did a great job today overall. People make mistakes. | ||
