Why do people ask where you're from anyway? It hapens in all sorts of games and I never understood it...

So that when they lose they can insult your nation in some way to make themselves feel better.

Sometimes people ask it just as their units are coming into your base or some other cheese moment to try and make you type instead of play.

And sometimes just so they can have a friendly chat about whatever they can think of related to your country.

"The name "Korea" derives from the Goryeo period of Korean history, which in turn referred to the ancient kingdom of Goguryeo. Merchants of the Middle East called it Cauli (from the Chinese pronunciation), which then came to be spelled Corea and Korea. Korea is now commonly used in English contexts by both North and South Korea."

Both are acceptable really I guess because the country's name is supposed to be in Korean not English.

Funny, I made a new ID for this season JUST so that people won't keep asking me if I'm Korean.

It's fucking annoying.

I either answer China, or USA...

howeveer sometimes they also ask "Highest rank?" , in that case i just usually lie and respond "i'm a new player this season", and then respond back with a "how about you?". That way i give them nothing, and they tell me their highest rank.

I always agree to a re if the person asks before leaving, whether I intend to play him again or not. I've had too many people disc hack immediately after I said no to a re.

I always respond "Canada" when they ask where I'm from...when they ask what my highest rank is I generally stay silent. I don't want any preconceived notions of my (in)ability to play this game influencing their strategies.

he is always talking shit about being 13, playing for just 7 months blablabla.
if you watch his replays, you can see some oldschool elements of play,
which he would never execute if he learned bw in the past 7 months.
he asked some things about IP and so on, clans he could never know.

also some of his mates in ash asked him about aka which he refused to reveal.
its just obvious, but i dont care at all lol. his level isnt rly high, just all in, losing
to anyone who is prepared for that kind of play.

but i wont say he got the talent to be good one day. especially when massing
games like that. but i doubt he really learns from all those games, cause he,
like already mentioned, only plays 1 or maybe 2 builds per matchup and never
ever adapts.

sometimes when people ask I lie about where I'm from because
a) it's funny to say i'm armenian because most people dont even know where it is
b) some people don't like americans and leave upon learning you're american
c) who cares?

I play better when my opponent says he's from Korea, I think.

It's like... 50% concentration to 80% concentration.
