can anyone tell me what tf happened last night? I fell asleep after second map
sen threw breeze, then was up 12-4 on haven, furia was playing perfectly and making a comeback, but a dumb tech pause from the side of furia (got on top of b site box without using updraft riot was like HACKS) destroyed momentum then sen closed it out.
lots of malding, lots of threats, lots of conspiracies, so yeah classic sen game
edit: meant c site box, not b
I'm assuming it's whether they replay the round or dq the map.
Apparently teams are given a list of "exploits" that are known an banned by riot, before hand. SO i'm assuming it's riot deciding what they should do about it.
The list of exploits, I think it was vansilli in tariks stream who spoke about it.
I doubt it was decided on the spot. It could have slipped their mind as it's such a common jump, and 100% not an exploit.
I'm mainly going off what I heard said on stream. If it was on the list, then furia could have been DQ'd. I'm assuming it was similar to the cypher cam on breeze, which I think a SEA team used, and it was discovered to be on the exploit list. Team had to forfeit the series they played I believe.
However this jump is far different from that exploit. The jump should honestly be allowed to be used, as it's able to be done by every agent. I also think it's why Sen didn't do the jump, well from my memory while watching I didn't see them do it.
right now everyone can only make assumptions. I personally think it was more of a slip of mind as it's ingrained in pretty much the map since beta. Just surprised riot list it as an exploit to begin with.
Not slipping riots mind. Slipping the players mind.
Hell, I even do the jump everyday when I play on haven. I do however think riot should remove it from the exploit list. I've done exploits in matches on other games before, as it's normal to do on a day to day basis, and you sometimes forget you can't do it in official matches.
I just dont think there's any ulterior motives by Riot to do the tech pause, like others think. I just think they were discussing what route to take on the jump.
It's a shitty situation tbh. Shouldn't have been a tech pause as like even the sen players said, aswell as countless others. It's a normal part of the game.
The pause was most likely to decide if they penalise the team, or repaly round. It happened in a sea match before. Think it was alter ego, where a sova drone went too high. Match was in a tech for 10-15mins to decide if it had that large of an impact in the round to result in a sanction, or if it was just a play on type of usage.
About BR rage:
"Rawkus said FURIA paused the game, TenZ clarified that RIOT was the one who actually paused, because of a jump people are making with every agent since the begining of the game. Basically RIOT paused the game for 15 minutes without a valid reason, that pause helped SEN gather their thoughts and get beck to the game, while stopping FURIA's momentum and ending up with FURIA's defeat. So RIOT basically helped SEN win, they were favored by the organizers.
What really pissed the BR fanbase so much is that they made that banter on twitter after literally being favored by the organizers. FURIA was just robbed by riot and we still had to take that shit from SEN? That was unaccaptable and a very good reason to get enraged."
