Even if Kouji was the laggier player, it wouldn't matter. If you are 0.5 vs. 0.5 against Sarah and she's using 3G, if she dies first then you are the shown as the winner 100% of the time.
No one can show a single example of a player dying second and being declared the winner or anyone dying first and being declared the loser. That's not how any script in the arena works. It doesn't make human errors like that. Domi clearly died first in that replay, and hit detection is verified serverside so I'm sure it told VIS members that they lost the spar.


That kind of makes it pretty clear...

I don't have anything for or against either team, but Rebellious won based on that replay and the server seems to agree with that if they're telling the truth about receiving the popup. It's not as if it's going to be a reversed decision though, but just putting it out there. Lertcon probably isn't to blame. I don't fault him for not being able to judge it accurately, but it should be automated so that he doesn't need to.
