Time to announce the ruling for
Arifeen vs.
Mega Ridley.
The hosts have ruled
the battle will be replayed. Each player will be able to bring a new team, if they would like.
It was unfortunate Ridley dc'd at a crucial time in the match. A replay was settled on because the outcome was going to be decided on the next turn, and it was nearly a 50/50 shot for each player to win (the rolls were actually slightly in Ridley's favor).
This decision does not set the precedent of replaying battles that are decided by a timer dq.
This means if you "dc" when you're losing (or winning), or if you catch a bad matchup and "dc", you will not be protected by the opportunity of a replay. Play your battles through to the end and be good sports.
As such, future decisions will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
