From the outside looking in, I would say if Forest wasn't powerless, he was obviously unwilling, or at the very least not willing enough to enforce his promises. And that contradicts VenoX's claim that Forest 'promised' to commit more to hitting Ult at that time.

From past experience with both VenoX and Forest, and the uncontested claims VenoX made about incoming CT fleets to both IB and Ult, I'm more inclined to side with VenoX on this one.


Personally, had I made a 'promise' about committing to hit Ult, I would not have put up IB targets. Especially when considering target/strategy compatibility, and ults reputation as a defensive powerhouse. Then again, ranting at your members when they don't comply with the 'promises' that he made out of their purview sure sounds like true commitment!
