Grr, I hate when players are worse than you, but still make excuses. Common shit would be: not my main race, imba, op, lag, cheese, cheap, only assholes play like that, etc etc. Fucking stop doing that, its lame.

http://www.sc2replayed.com/replays/57173-2v2-terran-lost-temple

This replay, one of many, was a player who insisted they could beat me if they were playing their main race. Sigh, fine whatever, re go. After scouting a wall, I float a rax to the naga tower after building it from my base for a little d, place a tank behind it and make an empty bunker for the illusion.

Course, stupid idiot takes the bait and runs right into it, instantly I have won the game - I even say it, hoping he would gg lol. Whatever, nothing new, or special, but what was new to me, the guy called me a cheeser! So first you need a new race, now I cheese because 3 minutes into the game I float a rax half way across the map? It's not just him out there, this was just a recent encounter.

So for all the people who like to bm, please continue and fire away. my id is gabebutsechs.678 and I don't mind, I like it, it feeds me. BUT DON'T MAKE EXCUSES UP. What could possibly be next? " oh my dog died during the game, so I am upset, fuck you re re". Please stop, makes you look like a goof.

I like to compare wall-glitchers in fps games to people like our example. I get the same level of annoyance when I die from a dude in the wall, as when someone at the end of a match doesn't provide some kind of defeat. A gg or wp, or even a ragequit is awesome, k thnx, but don't take away my thunder by saying "my weak little girl wrists broke during playing and terran is op so of course you win and if this was broodwar you would have died years ago."

I think the best thing to do in this situation is to just ignore him and satisfy yourself with the fact that you're a better player. I get accused of hacking all the time when I 2v2. It's kind of fun watching them ragequit.

Just laugh at how ignorant they are. I've seen one of the best players I've ever played against on hunters been called a noob by his allies and they would have beaten me+fa+someone easily if they just had someone better than him on the team. I've seen frozen arbiter get called a noob or something similar too. You can be 5000 elo korean progamer and still hear the silliest things to why they did not win. Suprisingly it's never that you were better and they were worse.
I have the best fucking lawyers in the country including the man they call the Malmis.

It is perhaps not fair to say that you are the better player and expect your opponent to agree after one match. I agree that almost everything you listed are annoying excuses to hear, but "not my main race" is perfectly acceptable if they're looking for an re. I also don't mind "I'm having a bad day, re some other day" and I've done that a couple times myself

-e- people make all sorts of excuses when they lose. I played a 2v1 against a couple of my friends and without any self flattery ('m terrible and there's tonnes of things to improve in my play) they were rolled. One made some excuses and the other took it and the tips I gave him in stride - guess which one I'm a little stoked to help out

Lol i love it when people make excuses like that in bw, because i just re them anyway and destroy them. =P

One time i was playing fastest agaisnt one guy (yeah i played fastest for the rofls, sue me) and i kill his main cc and his scvs with dt's. He then makes an excuse like "i was on the phone. re" I then proceed to own his face the next game.
I like haikus and / I can not lie. You other / brothers can't deny

Personally I love it. Not only do I have the satisfaction of winning, but also of knowing they are so immature/butthurt that they feel the need to make up shit to save face.

I particularly love the "OK FAGGOT LET'S 1V1" response.
RIP Aaliyah
