GG's, that first map especially was a tough fight but a couple a standout performances from Pedro and Suzuki carried the day.

(this was the rescheduled l2 match btw)

ur right here's risk and theodin vs the same teams. wow risk is so much better than theodin he definitely didn't go 2-11 first picks with a .69 k/d or anything. As for rune and yoshie rune has been great so far. Dropped a 1.5 k/d in a must-win match all while having covid. he's active and actually shows up to team scrims while yoshie doesn't know how to launch the correct NW. Dont try to act like the trade is 100% one sided and wastee threw
Ah yes devaluing the players you just traded for, you acquired them because they suck… right?

And an 0-3 team that hasn’t won a map yet downgrading their two best players is indeed throwing, especially given the context.

There is such a thing as bad team synergy. Some players just don't work well together and Wastee wanted to try something new. The trade is also pretty even considering Rune's performance. I'd also say Rune being a more reliable duelist adds to the trade.

This fickle bunch wouldn't understand the concept. They're too blinded by the tears in their eyes to see reason.

First of all, l gave Xethos the primary call on allowing it or not since I was involved in the trade. I was not made aware of this trade, nor did I know I was involved in it, until both finally agreed (ask Wastee or Mikey). I had given Mikey and Wastee the notion that if they needed extra time for trading, they could have it. I told them this the hours before any idea of this trade came up, even before all the other trades happened (ask them). I mishandled the communication and should have announced something to everyone earlier. This is pretty tl;dr but it is honestly what happened and I never extended to solely benefit myself. I care about hosting leagues that people enjoy, can compete in, and where I can help the community. I care about how I host and I hate any element of bias, so I work hard to not have any issues at all in the leagues I host.

The main issue was communication and that will be better going forward, to resolve any similar issues.

Sure, Jazz, why not? If any other trade was demonstrably in the final stages of completion, but was aborted specifically because 12am eastern passed, send us proof. If it fulfills all other trade rules and we can be reasonably confident we're not being trolled, we'll consider it.
