EVO Update: Top 8

By "deliberate" do you mean you have to do a special version of the grab, or do mean just the repetitive nature of the infinite?
 
You can just CE and walk around your opponent since they're stuck in place to do the back throw/infinite.
 
lol why is this still going on? it's an infinite...and it's practical therefore it should be banned no questions asked.....

I disagree... but only if it's something that can be started off of a simple backthrow. That's why I'm trying to clarify. If the throw itself requires a special kind of input outside of A+G or B+G, then you can easily implement a ban for it. If it's not, and all that's required is for you to grab an opponent BT and just keep throwing, then it's not so easy to ban. Sure, you can say, "don't do it infinite times," but that just makes you look like an idiot.
 
The infinite should be easy enough to detect. One backthrow, that's OK. If you step forward and do another one (which you pretty much have to knowingly do instead of using a guaranteed launcher) then hit 'em with the banhammer. There's really no reason to do more than one backthrow unless it's "I'm going to infinite the other guy", as those backthrows do pitiful damage compared to the full combo you get. That's pretty simple.

To be honest, even with the infinite in play, Partisan could possibly have managed to pull through if it were Best of 5 instead of Best of 3. Just sayin'.
