The thing is, there are ways to avoid getting DDOSed, and a lot of these people did not take the steps to do so even though they were told to. That's why I was saying it wasn't Yaspresents fault that the tournament turned out that way. It's a shame that idiots DDOS online tournaments because it prevents them from happening more often. I don't really get why they do so but I suppose it's because they like to feel powerful despite the fact that they're usually just script kiddies anyway.
Anyway, what I said to your original post was that he wasn't talking about the players getting DDOSed at all so the "Yeah... not really..." bit wasn't needed. He was talking about the stream restarting (which it did, plenty of times, if you missed that then you must have not watched all of it). This was because of a bug with xSplit. Yaspresents even made sure to tell their viewers several times that this was happening and to refresh the page to see the stream again.
