    Marth was on top of the hatch. Thus he found it first. If the Survivor found it first, he should have gotten on top of it. Or perhaps the rules should have stated and been clear in the first place. They got a rematch once, but not for the game that was stolen from them 

    Rules should have been clearer, but you clearly see the [BAD WORD] Claudette 2 meters away from the hatch.

    Uh, items in chest are allowed. Which means you can find a Dull Key and use the hatch you numbskull LOL you asked before did I read what you said, but do you even play the game? Did you even read the rules yourself? Marth being on top of the hatch is a safe play in the event they found a key. Jeez lmao

    Did she have a key?

    Lets rewatch that.

    https://clips.twitch.tv/AbrasiveAcceptableAlbatrossFloof

    No she had a toolbox.

    So ######### are you talking about?

    BHVR is acknowledging the possible mishap, so they are formally investigating it. I didnt state Spud had an opinion  I stated the fact BHVR is actually investigating this lmao

    Investigating in shady ######### does not automatically mean they are guilty in said shady #########.

    The tournament organizer are whores for views. What else is new?

    And no they aren't my favorite. I don't even like Marth as a streamer nor as a person. Sorry that you don't think it's possible for someone to simple believe something is amiss without needing to throw personal bias into the situation.

    I never said they were your favorite idiot.

    Defensive much?

    Then why was he not on top of the hatch? Rules favored him to do so yet he did not. They ######### up, as you think Marth ######### up.

    Whether she had a key or not is irrelevant. Your point about not being able to use items or whatever and that the hatch can only have a standoff if it is open are moot considering, yes they could use items if they found them, and yes the standoff could start earlier than the hatch being opened. One of your main points is pointless.

    It doesnt take a rocket scientist to see the shady ######### from a mile away whether they end up being "guilty" or not.

    Uhm. What? Yes you did lol you literally said "This is coming from the guy that cannot accept the fact that his favorite team lost, because Marth ######### up.

    Keep doing you kid."

    Is your memory that bad? Seriously? I knew you only responded to me in order to have pointless arguments with me but you cant even remember what you said anymore lol good work being part of one of those annoying members this game attracts.

    This is actually ######### funny please explain how he did [BAD WORD] up and what he should have done?

    He had 4 seconds to hit that final survivor even after he was fatigued.

    After he had hit that survivor he still would have had 1 second to pick them up.

    That's what he should have done. But he stalled.

    And tell me why shouldn't have he stalled if the rule clearly stated that whoever found it first get the point? (by the original rule before it got changed livestream by tello)?

    To me it seems that Marth did an inteligent play he knew he had won by rules in that situation so he didn't do #########. Why is that a missplay please explain?

    If you find yourself in that situation you have won no matter what as there is a rule.

    He could have done literally anything there he had won.

    The only reason why he didn't in the end is because tello literally livestream changed a rule to fit that situation.

    Poor and unethical. Frankly I am surprised after that BHVR even allowed these guys to cast the consoles tournaments.

    Okay, so this is just 4 or 5 people going back and forth. I wondered how this subject could draw so much attention.

    And what's up with this Marth dude...he has like 30K subs combined between Twitch and YT. Not criticizing....it's more than I have (0)...just seems entry level.

    He hesitated then swing at the guy before it was open. He should have ether waited longer or hit sooner. He didn't. Therefore it was a bad play.

    If you find yourself in that situation you have won no matter what as there is a rule.

    Which was vague as #########.

    He could have done literally anything there he had won.

    Except he didn't won.

    The only reason why he didn't in the end is because tello literally livestream changed a rule to fit that situation.

    Because it's not a hatch standoff if the hatch isn't ######### open.

    Agreed.

    Wait for BHVR to say if he won or not.

    Second:

    You are saying that Marth should have hitted her before or waited for the hatch to open? Is that what you are saying?

    So considering he was on second blink an insta hit was dangerous as he didn't know exactly how much time was left before the hatch was going to open.

    So you are basically saying that the correct play he should have made was to wait for the hatch to open and then hit?

    I am genuinely curious on the logic behind the guys who say he didn't won following the rules.

    If Marth had waited then it'll be a hatch stand off.

    Ok so in your mind the only play he could make there was waiting.

    Congratulations THAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A STANDOFF AND OH SURPRISE HE WAS ON AN HATCH:

    HATCH

    STANDOFF

    HATCH STANDOFF.

    Congrats dude you did it.

    Are you an idiot?

    I stated that its not a hatch standoff if the hatch was closed.

    If Marth had waited for the hatch to be open then its a hatch stand off. He didn't.

    If Marth had hit the survivor immediately he would have time to pick her up and killed her. He didn't.

    There were two things Marth could have done but he didn't [BAD WORD] do it. He misplayed.

    No it seems you are instead as you said that the only thing he could do was waiting and you are keep saying that.

    What you are failing to understand even with your last post is that by saying that the only thing he should have done was waiting is exactly the definition of a standoff. So yes. You are basically saying

    "It was not an Hatch Standoff, it was a standoff on the hatch"

    And then you ask the only guy who is trying to help you in seeing the flaws of your logic if he is an idiot... not cool.

    Trying to hit instantly wasn't the play there as he didn't know exactly when the hatch was going to open.

    Sorry buddy your logic got busted. Saying:

    "It was not a standoff he should have waited more"

    Simply does not work. If he already need to wait he is already in a standoff situation.

    Wait I give it to you once again hoping for you to read it:

    Because the [BAD WORD] rules didn't state that the players had to be physically on the hatch.

One of your main points is pointless.

    So why the [BAD WORD] would you bring up if she had a key.

    She couldn't bring one and had to rely on chance to even get one of the 2 items available for the hatch.

    So what the [BAD WORD] is your argument?

    It doesnt take a rocket scientist to see the shady ######### from a mile away whether they end up being "guilty" or not.

    Doesn't matter if they are guilty in the shady ######### or not, they are still guilty.

    Guess we should forget innocent before proven guilty.

    I do not like the the commentators in that stream. They are incompetent and only care about viewers then the quality of the stream. It was unorganised as #########, with 30 minute wait times as well as hipster Tony Stark lack of terms and knowledge about the game

    Uhm. What? Yes you did lol you literally said "This is coming from the guy that cannot accept the fact that his favorite team lost, because Marth ######### up.Keep doing you kid."
    Is your memory that bad? Seriously? I knew you only responded to me in order to have pointless arguments with me but you cant even remember what you said anymore lol good work being part of one of those annoying members this game attracts.

    My bad. I guess we should forget everything I wrote because of one statement where I contradicted myself.

    Wasn't one of your first post here a salt post? I guess we should ignore everything you write just because you prefer drama then actual discussion. Just a thought.

    So basically the rules can just go in whatever way is deemed necessary because they couldn't have the foresight to make actual rules? Tourney shouldn't have even been held then.

    Why would I bring up a key? Then why would you initially bring up no items and no perks when we started this argument in the first place? I wouldn't have had to bring that up if you didnt bring up a moot point in the first place lol

    Innocent until proven guilty has always been funny to me, especially in a country where the system to determine guilt is rigged, just like this tourney.

    Im just pointing it out fam. You said something and forgot, it's ok bb I forgive you we all human.

    And a salt post that this tourney backs up. This game is just a shitshow now. Also, I have stated plenty of times talking about DbD is way more fun than playing it. This game has a ton of drama surrounding it and I enjoy controversy. Sue me.

    How can the survivors use the hatch if its closed? They need a key for that and the Claudette didn't have one.

    So how the ######### is it a Hatch Standoff if the survivor couldn't use the Hatch at that time.

    Explain that ######### to me.

    I already did... and you have a clip to show you that aswell.

    If the hatch is about to open in less time than the killer need to finish the post hit animation the killer can't do anything because if he hit you and you go down he does not have the time to pick you up before the hatch opens and you jump in. So in that scenario the killer is left with no choice but not hitting the survivor therefore he is in a standoff situation before the hatch opens. Easy explaination. Don't get salty dude I may be mean but this is logic.

    If you want we can test it in kyf and I will show you that the 1 second before the hatch opens is also a standoff situation because if the killer hit you in that second you press m1 and escape so he is left with no alternative but doing nothing that is exactly the definition of a standoff.

    This is why tello had to change the rules to create a perfect scenario that fit that very specific situation.
    Hope you now understod.

    I had already told you that Marth had time to hit the survivor and pick him before the Hatch was open.

    I told you that if Marth had waited for the hatch to be open before hitting the survivor he could have won by the Hatch Standoff rules.

    He didn't do ether of these things therefore he lost.

    Your fault for not understanding. At this point we're just talking in circles.

    We are not talking in circles you are to try and escape from the fact that your logic got completly busted by reality and facts.

    Your logic is the Hatch Standoff occurs before the Hatch is open.

    I'm saying if Marth waited for the Hatch to open then its a Hatch Standoff.

    You stated Marth didn't have enough time.

    Majority of the people in this thread including me disagree with you.

    You somehow still failed to understand:

    First of all don't put words in my mouth, I said:

    "Trying to hit instantly wasn't the play there as he didn't know exactly when the hatch was going to open."

    So I am not saying that he 100% he didn't have time.

    I am saying a different thing that you are failing to understand so let me explain it to you again.

    THE TIMEFRAME WHERE THE SURVIVOR WIN THAT TRADE WHEN THE KILLER GOT TO THE HATCH FIRST DID NOT EXIST WITHIN THE RULES BEFORE TELLO CHANGED THEM.

    If marth hit the survivor and grab him he got the point.
    if marth hit the survivor and the survivor jump into the hatch he got the point nevertheless because he was in a standoff situation by definition of standoff and the rules stated that he had won.

    That is why tello needed to edit the rule in a way to add a timeframe where the survivor win that trade "If the killer get first to the hatch but it is still closed".

    This is still going? People are still saying "BUT THE HATCH WASNT OPEN MIMIMIMIMIMI" after all this time?

    The hatch doesn't need to be open. The state of the hatch was never a listed part of the criteria. Not until the rules were illegitimately changed post-match. Lets go back, once again, to hard facts that you guys seem to be ignoring.

    The hatch was not yet open. Regardless the Claudette was there, injured, and was too far away from the gates to survive if she got caught. She was not contesting the hatch, she was attempting to hide. Marth stood on the hatch, found her, and then she began contesting the hatch. Why? Because she needed it. If she left, she would die. If she did anything EXCEPT bank on the hatch at that point, she would die.

    Thus she started contesting the hatch afterward. Marth, either unaware of the option to hit her early or otherwise deciding against using it (the time it takes for the hatch to open may sometimes be inconsistent after all), allowed it to enter a standoff situation knowing he had the advantage according to the written rules. And anything that is not written, is void.

    Therefore the standoff began before the hatch was open. Claudette knew she required the hatch, and contested it later than Marth, who decided to use the rules to his advantage. What people are saying is "Well the written rules are vague and up to interpretation, so it's okay to bend them to any interpretation even to the point of adding additional rules to change the outcome."

    That's an excuse if I ever heard one. "Your interpretation of the obscurely written rules is wrong." Even though it is the most literal and logical interpretation of the rules you can have based on how they were written. The only argument people have is to say "You did not wait long enough to fulfill a criteria that does not exist." Well, the criteria didn't exist. The hatch did not need to be open. The Claudette certainly seems to agree because they ran straight up to the hatch as soon as they were spotted, hoping they would be favored in the standoff rules.

    You already lost the game and now you're losing the public relations by being a bad sportsman. Your fans were already laughing at Marth for camping like a ######### against the Russian team because he knew they were too good for him.

    So you're going to complain that Marth camped after the Russian team camped because...? Good job making yourself out to be a hypocrite lmao. I wonder who it is you have it out for?

    @RemoveSWF said:

    Everybody except you knows what a hatch standoff is.

    If the hatch isn't open, there is no standoff because the survivor can't win. By your own admission, Marth had time to hit the survivor (and down him, and hook him) before the hatch was open. The standoff started AFTER Marth's epic fail. The rules state in the event of a hatch standoff, the person who arrived at the hatch first would be given the win. So survivors won.

    I just explained how and when the standoff exists but still you are going off a meaningless definition that the hatch must already be open. It does not need to be open and I already explained why. The standoff exists when both players confront each other at the hatch, knowing it is the final option. Marth was at the hatch first when that confrontation happened. The Claudette was trying to remain hidden to avoid confrontation and only tried to contest the hatch afterward. So she lost the standoff.

    Again if your only argument is "BUT IT NEEDS TO BE OPEN!!!!!" that is simply false and I have already proven how it is. There is no part of the rules that states it needs to be open and so the only definition for the hatch standoff if the logical one. Clearly that's not the side of "but its not open yet hurr durr".

    If Space believed they made the right call then they would just explain it. But they are avoiding having a conversation about it completely. They changed the rules mid-game and they know it. There is no justifying an action that is, at best, telling the other player they lost because they chose the wrong interpretation of the rules.

    Seems like a petty excuse to get at a team you dislike. Especially if they're going to just ignore the fact that this team should have been DQ'd based on the time limit rule for starting their match in the semi-finals. That rule is written very clearly and is stated that there will be no exceptions, but... At it turns out they made an exception and made no mention of the rule at all. Big shocker.

    It is the final option if he makes it to be. Again if your best argument is -insert meaningless hypothetical situation here- then you do not have an argument. You can say 1 million things about how something could have happened. That does not de-legitimatize the play he made.

    The timings are inconsistent in that the hatch may sometimes open the moment the Survivor crosses the threshold of the exit gates, or it may take some seconds to register that they have escaped to the end screen. Not much but it is a factor.

    Kind of like how salty and spiteful you are? Lmao dude look at yourself and tell me who here is the guy who is biased. You do not even try to hide it.

    And of course you are willing to let a team you favor/against a team you hate get away with breaking the rules. I am done speaking with you since you made it very clear you either hate Marth and the team or you are a fanboy of the team that won, again making you a hypocrite for bitching about "Depip fanboys". All you are doing now anyway is flaming because you know you lost the argument lol.

    Have a nice day.

    To me you have to consider the nature of a standoff. A standoff exists when two sides face off against each other with a consequence to be had if one blinks. If one side makes a wrong move the other side wins. With the hatch closed there is no win condition for the survivor. In fact, with the hatch closed there is no reason for the survivor to be at the hatch at all. If the survivor had crept out and sat on the closed hatch and Marth came up afterwards would Marth have just said "Oh, you got it. GG!" and not hit them, downed them, and hooked them? Considering he actually did hit them, a bit too late, says otherwise.

    The survivor could not approach the hatch while it was closed because it would have led to them losing. Instead he approached the hatch as the other survivor was dying possibly to create a stand off and at least try for the escape. Thankfully for him Marth made a "game move" that gave him the victory.

    The state of the hatch did not need to be specified because the nature of a standoff dictates what state it needs to be in for a standoff to actually exist.

    Could things have been more clearly stated? Absolutely. Could Marth have not hit the survivor for reasons known only to him? Absolutely.

    Wait just a second.

    "If one side makes a wrong move the other side wins"

    Eyyyyy that's just exactly what happened to Marth!

    Still you somehow say he wasn't on a standoff situation? mmm?

    This is your best chance of success - try to get the opposing team disqualified before the game starts.

    That's the only way you'll ever beat Tournament Monsters, because they stomped you good.

    Actually Depip squad beat them on the first round.

    Tello had to livestream change a rule to create a specific condition where they had to rematch.

    You can say whatever you want, but in the end this is what happened.

    Anyways now this matter is in BHVR hands.

    Demon and Tello do not have any decision power on the matter anymore. So BHVR will decide who won that.

    Guys you need to realize that this is one of those "play the ball as it lies" moments (Happy Gilmore fans know what I mean).

    The way the rules are set and the way the game played out are totally different things. Had the hatch opened and neither player moved, THEN the rule would take effect to end the standoff. But a standoff did not occur, Marth took a swing and the guy escaped. That is a mistake on Marth's part, what he SHOULD have done (knowing the rule as it was written) would be to not doing anything, wait for the hatch to open and a standoff to begin, then wait for the ref to make the call. If you "play by the rules as they are written" then you wait for the ref. Marth acted, and in acting gave opportunity for an escape, ending any standoff that may have even occurred. Standoff is basically a stalemate situation, where neither player can move without losing, but if one players moves that is them, according to the rules OF THE GAME, resigning their position. Much like if you got a stalemate in Chess but one player moved anyway. It gives the other guy the win, and once you moved you can't take it back.

    The fact is what happened happened. The rule is there to determine a winning in case of a standoff, but not only did a standoff not actually occur (because the hatch wasn't open) but even if it did, Marth forfeited the right to call for a ref when he hit the guy.

    The way the rules are set and the way the game played out are totally different things. Had the hatch opened and neither player moved, THEN the rule would take effect to end the standoff. But a standoff did not occur, Marth took a swing and the guy escaped. That is a mistake on Marth's part, what he SHOULD have done (knowing the rule as it was written) would be to not doing anything, wait for the hatch to open and a standoff to begin, then wait for the ref to make the call. If you "play by the rules as they are written" then you wait for the ref. Marth acted, and in acting gave opportunity for an escape, ending any standoff that may have even occurred. Standoff is basically a stalemate situation, where neither player can move without losing, but if one players moves that is them, according to the rules OF THE GAME, resigning their position. Much like if you got a stalemate in Chess but one player moved anyway. It gives the other guy the win, and once you moved you can't take it back.

    The fact is what happened happened. The rule is there to determine a winning in case of a standoff, but not only did a standoff not actually occur (because the hatch wasn't open) but even if it did, Marth forfeited the right to call for a ref when he hit the guy.

    Oh no please not again the "Hatch must be open for a standoff" argument that was already completly dismantled serveral times in this very thread.

    Except it wasn't because if the hatch isn't open there isn't a standoff. And like I said even if there were a standoff, Marth basically forfeit when he took a swing. If he wanted to go by the rules as they were written he should have just done nothing, let a standoff officially commence, and wait for the ref to make a ruling.

    You guys seem to ignore the basic logic that such a rule in in place to prevent the game from just going on indefinitely and nothing else. It's not there to subvert what actually happens in the game otherwise. Hatch was closed when Marth got there, and stayed closed for long enough he could have downed the guy and picked him up before the hatch opened. Then when he hesitated, then swung, he ended the standoff that would be occurring because now a result can happen. You keep arguing that anything having to do with both players at the hatch is a standoff, it's not. It's only a standoff if the hatch is open and neither side is willing to act. And regardless, Marth acted, therefore he lost fair and square.

    At this point it's best to ignore them in regard to the definition of a hatch standoff. They might aswell be saying, "fire is wet", or "the sky is on the ground". They may well be flat earthers tbh ¯_(ツ)_/¯

    Wait so there is actually a conspiracy theory going around that these idiots running the tourney, idiots who literally didn’t know Billy’s chainsaw is great for traversal, somehow know Depip Squad and had personal grudges? 

    Geez, just take the L. Marth screwed up.

    take this with a huge grain of salt as I played DbD instead of watching the tourney.. but would have loved to see them give the players like 1 mill BP so the players could get perks, items with the caveat being that once you use a survivor/killer you can't use them again.  that way if you want to play a full perk survivor/killer you can, but you won't have them for the next match.  

    also do away with the hatch standoff stuff.  I know a 20 minute standoff wouldn't be fun to watch, but make the killers/survivor go for the win.  

    granted as I said I didn't watch the tourney, so take my ideas with a HUGE grain of salt.

    From what I understand, even under the post-hoc rule change, Marth won. Sure, he hit the survivor, but that was before the hatch opened. Once the hatch was open, Marth had still been the first person to find it, and thus won by default.

    I haven't see any dismantling of a logical expectation of the hatch state. Is the hatch isn't open it's just flat terrain like any other piece of ground. It's not till it opens that a win condition becomes available for both killer and survivor, thus introducing the necessary ingredients for a standoff to happen at all.

    Watch better.

    It has been explained by me and Spudbar several times now.

    @12345 No need, the situation is quite clear.

    I agree it is quite clear... to explain it with Bahroo words:

    "They didn't like the team who was going to win so they post game changed a rule to prevent their victory".

    In the end, there's one thing that's absolutely unacceptable: the rules were changed after the match. You don't get to change the rules of a game after the game has started (or even after it has ended), especially in a way that changes the winner. That's what little kids do when they can't handle losing at a game they made up.

    By what your saying I should of alt tabbed to get the ruling made, any time during that she COULD of jumped and been the same situation lol. Its not like the ref is next to me and i can say hey what do i do here. I have to take my attention away from the game to do so. The claudette surrendered it was over. Case and point. Per the rules I already gained the point, and EVEN when the hatch opened. I was still first. either way it was over

    Considering that she couldn't just jump in if you didn't swing, what would happen is that the hatch would open and you both stand there (as would normally happen in a standoff). The ref, who is watching, would message you guys and call the match. You don't tell the refs what to do, they tell you what to do. You just play the game.

    You can't prove that the Claudette was intentionally surrendering to you. Even if she was, due to the outcome she can just flat out deny it. But if you just let the standoff happen as it would normally and waited, I'm positive that someone would have told you the game's over and you won.

    I have dealt with probably hundreds of players like you in tournaments. The application of the tournament rules cannot be done by you, the participant. You don't get to look at that situation and just say "oh I win GG." The refs do that.

    If the kicker kicks a field goal, does he get to put his hands up and say it's "good" then go over and add the extra point himself. No, the ref decides if it's good, then the point is awarded.

    Marth I like you but you are wrong here. You made an assumption about the status of the game that you shouldn't have. Lesson learned, and TBH I would have called the match for them too, simply because you acted before being given the win.

    The only "MISTAKE" I made was playing by the rules of the tournament lol. The moment the claudette approached the hatch and crouched in front of me staring at me the "STANDOFF" began. She surrendered any other play she had. The game was over clear as day and after 11 hours of the tournament I was happy it was over. With Latency it was IMPOSSIBLE to rely on the EXACT time the hatch was gonna open based on the dying survivors dying animation. SO the safe and CORRECT play was to claim the hatch. The standoff BEGAN when she conceded and crouched at my FEET. She had ZERO plays from there. The only gate that was open she had NO chance of getting all the way across the map. Game was over, and I wanted this long as tournament over. I claimed the hatch, i took the crown and ANY VETERAN player knows it. The standoff began the MOMENT she surrendered her self. She could of try to run to the door and begin a chase when she got caught out of position she didn't. She surrendered knowing it was done. JUST because hatch wasn't open does not make the difference. This was the safest and CORRECT call from the rules of the tournament. It wouldn't of mattered i waited 1 sec or 10 minutes. The standoff began and the point belongs to the De Pip Squad

    Ahh, weirdkid5's OTHER alt xD
