i thought it was pretty cool.

Man, fans are annoying.

Everyone's all complaining that esports is dying and blaming KESPA for stagnating the scene, the proleague arenas are practically empty, and then when someone tries to rejuvenate things a little bit, QQ BAW BAW.

Why is that bad-mannered?
It could also mean that he was waiting for Kal in the finals, or in general for the winner of the semi-finals. It's just hype advertisment that they wanted to try.

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.


Although I've never seen that happen before you make a fair point. Even so, this isn't something they should make a habit out of. Leave it to the commentators to talk about whether or not the game is over.

You will quickly learn that people have no clue what they actually want.

They hate Flash for turtling and then hate him for cheesing.
They hate that the scene is stagnating but then vilify anything different that happens (see FBH, this, and any other obnoxious ceremony that had me laughing)

It's always MANNER THIS and MANNER THAT. God if we lived in a more boring environment I'd go crazy.

Do you guys seriously believe that the MBC producers had any CONTROL over this happening? This was Flash projecting himself DIRECTLY!

Because of the timing. Had they shown it in the beggining of set 1 than ok, but they showed it at the end of set 3. Kal is down 2:0 and is at a very bad possition. Everyone knew he had lost, I'm sure he knew that he had 99% lost, but he was still playing. It's like kicking a guy when he's down. Is it so hard to wait another 5 min to show that pic? Just out of respect.

lol i dont hear anyone complaining when they have those incredibly cheesy opening ceremonies at the finals and all that kind of crap, not to mention all those retarded (although sometimes funny as hell) ceremonies from progamers.

And now people are whining about one dumb popup, come on. Besides, none of it impacts the games itself, unlike fake wrestling where it's all staged.

What are you doing on this site lol. I think everyone here agrees that Starcraft is more than "just a game". It's a recognized E-SPORT.

Still, MSL Finals advertisement should have been shown during commercial break.

MBC rushed it. Bad timing.

dude, no one cares if FOX advertises the super bowl during the conference championships, nothing wrong with it. They shouldn't have to take out an ad on their own station to advertise the next matchup in the tournament.

Super fucking lame.

I mean, everyone wants a JD vs Flash final. That's cool, and MBC is loving it. But advertising the match before the semifinal is over?? That's too much, it's whack. No respect for Kal or his fans, and really, it shows a lack of respect for Jaedong. They should have dealt with the semifinal in one go. Discussed what happened, done the whole song and dance, and hyped up how well JD performed.

Point is, I think it was too quick. Let it wait a little bit. This finals will have plenty of hype without interrupting the semifinal games.

It wasn't even an advertisement. It was just a pic of flash and a short message.
And the semifinals WERE over. 2-0 with jaedong just waiting for the 3rd gg.
