Nothing wrong with hyping up the finals.

But that's the most unprofessional way to do it imo :/

Well... its kinda cheesy, but I don't think its turning it into a joke sport. The korean netizens are probably jsut a touch too sensitive

if they jumped kal in the booth with female bodybuilders during the 3rd game to ensure his loss then maybe we have a case

isn't this the forum that makes fun of julyzerg being fat? pot meet kettle

Its not like we have TL agents at live sc matches when julyzerg plays with a massive bucket of kfc throwing peices of chicken at him, i can understand them doing it but in the middle of the game? come on mbc

so its cool to be disrespectful, as long as they don't know

as long as we are taking the moral low ground consistently i am fine

e-sports are very, very young. i personally label this as experimentation and do not expect such things to be done in the future. probably added to the hype to some extent though (as if an OSL finals needed extra hype).

Experimentation?

Anyone with some basic conscious will realise that doing that is just a slap in the face for the loser. Awfully disrespectful. Very very unprofessional on MBC's part.

The worst part was when the counter-attack was looking like it might cause the game to be very close. How embarrassing would it have been if Kal would have killed more than just Jaedong's main after they showed that?

You missed my point compleatly, in the middle of the game its not ok to do something like this, after or before whatever but during? not on imo

i thought it was hella lame, regardless of whether it was ethical or not. i bet flash was embarrassed about it too.

actually at first i thought someone hacked into the mbc network somehow and overlayed that picture as a prank. now that i hear mbc did it on purpose its so -________-

Asians produce weirder things in ads and stuff I think it's an overreaction.

I, along with others who have spoken up already, also assumed it was added by a third party, in my case, the vid uploader. This goes to show that this is something we didn't expect MBC to do, perhaps because it was so unprofessional.

But whatever.

I think it might have been a glitch or something. I'm pretty sure the exact same thing happened the other day (though, I couldn't read it so I didn't know what it said) during one of the replays against Kwanro after a match. It seemed really out of place, so I can't believe that it was intended.
I tried to commit seppuku, but I accidentally committed bukkake.

I felt really bad for Kal when they did that. It was unbelievably rude to a player who obviously put his all into preparing and just came up short vs the dong.

I guess we could interpret it as Flash vs JD OR Kal, but meh. It struck me as rude.

I just thought it was pretty funny...people are making way too big of a deal out of it. Although for some reason I think it would have felt out of place had Kal been the one winning.

I didn't know what it said when it happened.
Now that I know I feel badly for Kal . It's a bit rude, but not nearly as bad as the netizens are making it out to be IMO.

At what point in the game did he come up? If it was before it was obvious Jaedong had won then it's not rude to Kal at all, just shitty advertising. But if it was while Kal's main was getting wiped out then yea, that would be rude.

i think it was at the point when Kal was going for one last hanbang push

I'll check later

Edit: Oh okay it was when Kal's army that attacked 7 was destroyed, although Kal was on 3 bases at that point of time.
