:| 343 grudgematch with casters?  Sigh I guess I'm out, was underwhelming but it wasn't a complete waste of time at least :X lol, I suspect they actually know how to play the game though (unlike me!) haha I was just kidding, but in any event you're right about the casters just kinda going off and saying random shit by the end ><;

Oh no, I know that there's some wonderful stuff being done in Foreign BW and I definitely watch those when I have time, it's just that it blows my mind that these are GROWN men acting like they're in middle school, except with deeper grudges and more swear words.

When he didn't say 'bro' and actually quietly commented on the game I lol'd.
What's going on now is absolute shit =_= Completely undervaluing the monster comeback Chill made even if Telecom was doing relatively dumb shit, he was so astronomically ahead Chill should have had no chance.
EDIT: And yea, as puppy mentioned, it was fucked up that Passion and I got hated on so hard for being bad when everyone knew we were bad to begin with and we were just trying to play SOMETHING after Tele dodged when we were pretty much TOLD TO PLAY by the people who casted hahaha so silly. I've beaten Puppykiller straight up once before and Game added me to his E to A+ League team, and they both were so hateful to the players, it's just bad looks on BW scene, I agree.
EDIT 2: To be fair at least PK sorta apologized from what I gathered from stream.

Even after all this time, Chill still pretty good

to be fair they all did play it in middle school (probably). they're just reliving their glory days.

Fuck lag
Still was fun to watch Chill roll ggzerg

Never, because you'll dodge it

The whole point of the grudge match and casting is to be as BM and random as possible, is it not? I feel the casters succeeded admirably if that was what they were supposed to be doing it wasn't supposed to be 'serious' casting, or else I'm sure they would have done a much better job.
Both players played terribly lul, I'm D level and could probably take games off either.

I dunno, perhaps I've been spoiled, but to me the definition of Grudge Match was Chill vs Combat-Ex. Day[9] did a wonderful job at casting and talking shit (but you could tell it wasn't mean-spirited, like what we saw today), while still being able to actually talk about the game and making it funny, without really offending anyone. Sure, it was random at times (bear semen, anyone?), and BM too (mocking bad building placement), but it was all in all, pretty fair, and I'm sure that everyone except for Combat-Ex had fun. No crap like going after Combat-Ex's real life living conditions, or something like that. I think it helps if the players are actually somewhat in shape. In contrast, this was a hate-filled circle jerk.

people need to realise that the grudge match and the two games after. they had a different casting combo and the two games after weren't the grudge match. they were random show matches and shouldnt have been calendered. i agree the casting for those was fucking terrible. just hateful shit being spouted.
edit: maybe one game? at least the chill game casted by puppykiller and game with all the shit about telecom being poor etc

I was mad because a match that me and many others spent a lot of time putting together was highjacked while I was away by people with no investment in it. I joined the call initially to talk about the games but Airlock and Chill right off the bat acted abrasive towards me. I got annoyed so I decided to act obnoxiously towards Airlock. Fuck him.

Wait why did randomKo_Orean get banned?

He got temp banned because he lost. Part of the terms of the GM.
@Kiante:
True, it was two separate matches, and I'm lumping them together. Besides the overall poor quality of play displayed in the first three games, it was still OK and fairly entertaining. Ironically, the Chill vs Telecom game probably had the best gameplay, but worst "commentary".

Hmm.. it was an honest mistake that I couldn't care less about. He also tried to annoy me with skype messages after I left the call when I learned that he was no longer streaming.
