I didn't watch the game live, but from looking at the screen shot, I don't see why this is such a big deal. All it says is: "let's meet in the finals" - lee young ho. Haha wow leave it to Korean netizens to be overly critical and make something out of nothing.

That is incredibly rude and unprofessional of them. I mean seriously, can you picture that happening in any other serious sport like tennis? Of course not, because it would be incredibly disrespectful to the player assumed to be losing.

Yes I can it's just more subtle, like zooming in on the player in the audience that is already in the final while the live match is at 2-0 5-0. This is really not a big deal. If they had zoomed in on Flash sitting in the audience the place would have gone nuts with applause. People are weird like that.

I don't think anyone is a supporter of the message but getting upset over it seems over the top.

Still, it was pretty obnoxious imo.
It's not like they would zoom out in mid-rally in tennis, but in essence, that's what they did.

You kids make me laugh.
I just saw it, Kal was down 0-2 and they put it up when Kal was down like 4 bases to 2 or something like that AND he lost his entire army. At that point, it was pretty clear that he lost and a player like Jaedong wouldn't throw away an advantage like that.

Rude? Yes, but it was interesting and it's not a big deal. It also didn't change the fact that Kal was getting trashed.

I don't mind it, but wouldn't it be more appropriate if MSL aired that AFTER Kal got 0-3 out of the semi?

they probabably would have also shown it if kal would have been winning

I thought it was part of the buffering-lag-whatever from the stream, but I suppose it wasn't. Why does this make e-sports into a "joke sport"? Just because they tried to add a little drama to the tournament? I'm not against this thing they did, as long as they don't overuse it in the future, I think it's ok.

I'm sure they'd have aired that pop-up anyway sometime during the decisive game of the series (game 3, 4, or 5 - it turned out to be game 3).

imo the thing is, the game wasn't over and Kal was still playing, it's extremely rude. Like offensive GGing.

I actually thought the same thing even though Jaedong had it in the bag. Also, when it happened I thought that it was roffles doing it to his own stream, not MSL actually doing it. On the whole I didn't like it, but it didn't wreck the match or turn it into a joke.

hes telling the truth (about you at least)

And the game was %99 over for kal basically when that pic popped on the screen, kal had no army, his main will be depleted in a minute and his minonly wasnt even running properly and i think that people are exaggerating WAY too much

Definitely for all the controversy behind strict rules now enforced for that message to be allowed during the game is hypocritical and incredibly rude to Kal.

I don't really see this as a form of disrespect towards Kal or anything, but it just looked incredibly corny.

I think it was on the tv screens and that the players didn't see it during their games. This doesn't make it any less rude, but the bo5 was effectively over at that point and it doesn't change the fact that Kal had no chance to win.

Also, it's a Flash vs Jaedong finals, it's impossible to hype it up more.

Pro sports have advertisements for other shows and games towards the end of the game all the time. Really nothing out of the ordinary there.
