I never understood why the players cannot write anything during a match.
I understand that they might be afraid of swearing, but banning players for typing anything is simply retarded. The players could always say something interesting, even a "^^" after some nice action could be interesting - in terms of marketing. I remember that in some old Boxer-Nada match, that was made for fun, Boxer typed something funny in Korean (something regarding Nada's name, or whatever). This lead to people talking about the game - so probably more people would watch them.

Does anyone have any ideas why the leagues have so bad marketing skills?

boxer once commentated during a game on (neo?) forte that his main was too small.

his poor opponent freaked out because he thought that it implied some sort of crazy proxy strategy and wasted a lot of time scouting all over the map. the rookie then proceeded to lose the game.

since then, chatting has been banned.


Really? I thought it was chalrenge and his swearing on battle.net, unless i'm wrong, or this was a sarcastic post >.>

the players who writes gg loses the game.
Doesnt matter if he would win it or not.
I think he HAS to leave the game after he types gg anyway.
But otherwise it doesnt really matter because the other play can just stop playing and walk away ~~~
