But could they know about the 41st dropping out before the playoffs happen?
I'm pretty sure it had been announced on who was facing who, and shortly after that they got the word that 41st was dropping, could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure.
@risk
1st - 3e
2nd - LG
3rd - 41st
4th - 30th
In most leagues/tournaments/associations/whatever you wanna call them, playoffs tend to have the top versus bottom seeds play first round. With that being the case, that is why 3e had to go against the 30th and the LG had to go against the 41st. Unfortunately the 41st dropped.
Pretty much a combination of these two things happened.
Now for the two referees, I can only give people the empty promise that they won't ref again. Russian didn't say anything too stupid and Orcaryo spammed shitty memes into the ground. I'm a bit disappointed in Russian because I believed that he could actually take this seriously but that was a false hope and for Orcaryo, that behavior is sadly expected of him. I'm all for this league for being a big meme, but sometimes you have to realize that you have to have a switch from playful to
seriousless moronic.
For the finals, I really don't want to hear these shitty memes about Vortex's family, Asian's dad, and/or Morraine's toaster. If you speak about them during the finals, you will get banned, as simple as that. For the first, I don't really care if you make fun of a person for a stupid reason(i.e. a persons love of Ryan Gosling), but bringing their family, who has no knowledge of these jokes, into the mix really sours that idea for me. For the second, his fucking father is dead. He knows that, and we know that. That should be the end of it unless he wants to bring it up. For the third, the guy was in a bad place at the time so he attempted something drastic. All that you should be doing is wondering if he's in a better place now then he was then. Making jokes about the method and the outcome are pretty sickening considering that he may not still be here now if something else had occurred.
Honestly, I shouldn't be preaching to anyone about morality because I certainly am no saint. I'm a pretty shitty person most of the time but I just want to give a bit of perspective.
If you guys seriously want to shit on someone so you feel better about yourselves or need someone to talk to, I'm always open to it. Sometimes people want to get away from their problems by playing video games. Please let them.
