During the Wild Card round-robin stage of the WePlay AniMajor<\/a>, Team Secret and Team Nigma were forced to replay an identical match with all the same heroes after the servers crashed mid-game. This incident was quite serious, as it would determine which team moved on to the Group Stage of the all-important Major. It is because of this incident that fans are now calling on Valve to add a Dota 2 rollback feature.<\/p>\n

WePlay AniMajor rematch debacle<\/h2>\n

First up, you should know that in the Secret vs Nigma match (Nigma won the first game), in the second game, Nigma was quite far ahead when the servers crashed. If Nigma won the 2nd game, they would get into the Group Stage of the WePlay AniMajor.<\/p>\n

The match ended with Secret winning the rematch, and due to the 1-1 scoreline, Nigma had to play a tiebreaker which they ended up winning against Invictus Gaming, sending the Chinese powerhouse squad packing.<\/p>\n

While Team Secret offered to completely remake the game with new drafts, it wasn’t up to the teams nor the tournament organizers. Instead, Valve stepped in themselves and forced an identical rematch, as teams had to use the same hero draft, starting items and lane positions.<\/p>\n
