I think that I am honestly a bit depressed over the fact that (IPL TAC2-spoilers) + Show Spoiler +
EG got so stomped.
I put down so much energy hyping them in the middle of the season and stayed up til 2 A.M. to see them play, and now it all feels for nothing. I just really wanted to see my team prevail, and instead it was pure and simple domination...

No, because SKT is pretty much a gathering of almost all the top talent and has had a long history of domination...

EG is... not.

While I understand that it sucks that EG lost, comparing it to SKT losing...... ugh. :/

More like Woongjin losing if anything

I was thinking more along the lines of how emotional SKT-fans get when they lose. Not comparing the teams, since SKT is a dynasty that EG haven't even touched, but more the reaction.

Point taken, though...

Yeah it's not fair to directly compare them to SKT. However both teams do spend a considerable amount of money compared to the competition. Also SKT has earned their fanboys by performing well consistently. I honestly don't understand why EG has so many fanboys.

I know that feel, bro. I get myself hyped up every time I'm about to watch an EG player play, but lately they've been getting their asses kicked up and down the playground relentlessly. It sucks, but you just gotta suffer through it. I would guess it's kind of like being a Cleveland Browns fan, except EG will eventually start winning again.
Like why do u use an oven instead of a fire? Coz its fucking better at cooking, that doesnt mean you want the shit to burn.

I'm with you too. I was torn because I love Sheth so much but I also love EG so much. It was okay. Sheth is a hero of mine too...

I would have to disagree. It would have been better if this match had been close. When Liquid absolutely crushes EG, it trivializes the rivalry the 2 teams have. IPL had 18k+ viewers tonight, which is more than 3 times the number of viewers that they have many nights and even several thousands higher than on a good night. Why did people watch in large numbers? Simple, because of EG and TL, and the rivalry. Many, myself included, would be less inclined to watch if there were no rivalry.

Congrats to Liquid, but it would have been better if it were a much closer series. Obviously this is not Liquid's fault, but that of EG's, and I hope this humiliation can bring EG back into form like TAC1 did for Liquid.

This 2012 EG Curse is beyond disheartening.

Keeping the faith in our all-mighty Godking Lord Idra is the only way, in times good and times bad.

Amen.

If only Sheth didn't play so risky/gimmicky, the real skill of idrA would have shined through.
I'm not stupid, a marauder just shot my brain.
