There's no Kongline discussion in this thread?

1/5

Otherwise, well written, though I do get something out of being a Bisu fan >_>

Hahaha great write-up!

I kinda feel there could be a newest rookie subset too, the guys who think they spotted the next talent etc.

I always thought a major category of Bisu fanboys were closet gay or subconsciously gay or a girl.

IMO 90% of Bisu fanboys are gay, 9% are generic SKT bandwagoners who are also annoying enough to like Fantasy, and 1% are Protoss players who haven't yet seen the awesomeness of Stork.

Eh, I would say that the Sea and Jaehoon categories don't describe me very well. But fun blog anyway.

In this thread I'm going to analyse the fanboys of many of the top players. I promise you this is 100% accurate, and simultaneously all for fun.


Flash Fanboys:
They like this guy because he's the best. Some of them will be terrans on iccup, looking up to his godly play. Many more will just be blind bandwagoners, enjoying following whoever is dominating at the moment. These are pretty dumb reasons to like a player, and I personally see no good ones to like this guy.

Redeeming features: They are mostly chill. They simply like him because he's the best, which means less delusions. Plenty of excuses when he loses of course, but that's true of every fanboy of any player.

How to troll them: Call his play boring. Patently untrue (except when he goes mech TvZ, and I don't say this as a TvZ mech-hater, Flash is especially good at making that boring), but guaranteed to work.





Chill? Flash fans are the touchiest fans around! Even dare to vaguely hint he might not be the best player in the universe for all infinity and you'll get flamed by like 20 of them. Trolling them is as simple as saying anything at all about him which isn't complete worship.

+ Show Spoiler +
And, come on, you have to admit zero is pretty cute. ^^




This is true. Remember that time when Flash was #1 power rank and his fans got all pissy in the comments because there wasn't enough emphasis on how amazing his accomplishments were? It was hilarious.

Anyway, nice writeup, OP. Sooo much trollbait in this thread.

Nicely done, OP. Fanning fanboy flames is fine fun as always.

lol nice job. All of those are pretty accurate. Although I wish Stork fans could go back to being chill
Edit: I'm a Stork fan

Since this is a fanboy thread I thought I'd state my preference for the best player in the world

I didn't count YellOw because everybody is a fanboy of YellOw.

I don't think Bisu is particularly handsome, either for appealing to guys or girls. That's just me being weird though.

I kinda feel there could be a newest rookie subset too, the guys who think they spotted the next talent etc.

Yeah, like I did with Bogus >_____>



Also as for the bonjwa discussion, I just know I've seen people say that the term was used before Savior. If they were wrong, then maybe Savior really was the first bonjwa. I'm not going to pretend to have been watching Starcraft during his prime.
The original Bogus fan.

this person actually likes Starcraft and not good-player-dicksucking

No, man, like I totally loved this band before they were big. That means I have better taste than you. Also, check out all these indie bands you've never heard of. I know nobody likes them, but that's what makes me unique and cool.

:o Seems like an apt comparison to me.

The easiest way to troll Shine fanboys is to say everything he does is cheese.
Seriously, every time Shine does an attack, even a timing attack at like the 25 minute mark, some how its called cheese -_-

Ah yes, because 20 people trolling in every chat saying the exact same thing for weeks on end is so funny\entertaining\unique.

Oh, I get it. You are purposefully misleading the trolls into trolling incredibly poorly and in a boring fashion XD. Very clever, OP.
