World of Warcraft: fnatic DC'd, Pandemic loses out

When Hafu disconnects from game one due to a bug, the admins make a controversial decision.
A controversial decision kicks off the match between Pandemic and fnatic Orz. In the beginning of the first map, a known bug occurred when Hafu became stunlocked and feared, causing her to disconnect. Immediately you could hear shouting from the Pandemic side saying, "that's a win-- that's not debatable."

After discussion between the admins, it was decided that the match would be replayed, much to the dismay of Pandemic. They thought they had clearly won the map, and many of the spectators agreed.

At this point it was clear that Pandemic had lost any momentum they might have had. Quickly they were down 2-0, and when asked if they would like their five minute break or if they were ready to queue, Nitrana angrily replied, "Yeah, I'm ready to get out of here."

Fnatic Orz finished off the match 3-0 with neither team making a change.

When asked to comment about the situation afterwords, Nitrana said, "I don't want to talk about it."
