my friend likes fantasy, so i have to dislike him. in the first few months of me playing, my friends labelled me Hyuksu, because i am Protoss, but i couldnt hold a lead for anything. So, when i saw these two players were on SKT1, thats how i became a fan.
EDIT: i have the Fox logo because thats my last name. and because of Nada

The reason SKT fans are so tough on fantasy is because he beat Bisu 3-0 in the Batoo OSL, Since then people didn't like Fantasy, Ofcourse I take them about the same, cause they are equally awesome.

They're the quickest fans to both quiet down and become uproarious. In that sense they stretch everywhere from humble to the absolute most obnoxious. But SC wouldn't be the same without them!

I like SKT1 as a team. Having such legends like Boxer Iloveoov and Midas, and good players like Canata Fantasy etc. they are a good team.

But I hate SKT1 fans because they praise Bisu like the next coming of Christ ever since he won more than 2 games in a row.

i always hated skt because i started off followin SC as a yellow fan -> KTF fan.

boxer always owning yellow with annoying tvz shit (yea i thought zvt was a pretty hard matchup back then too and lame for zerg T_T ) made me dislike skt more D:

then oov the bonjwa back then evil gorilla guy

and then hmm like all that stuff about boxer constantly typing messages to make sounds when he was playing against a blind guy D: haha

hmm what else yea i was so devastated when ktf lost to skt1 in sky proleague .2006? T____T fraeking epic battle on iron curtain though.

and ive also been a cj fan for a long time.

and then lost to the finals against Stork? Well it was a bit disappointing in that sense but Fantasy showed why he deserved that spot against Stork, that series was really good.

and I bet same would go for the next OSL where Fantasy had some awesome build versus Zerg, and lost to Jaedong.

I guess he really drops the ball sometimes when T1 fans gets their hopes on him or something.

I'm not really hard on any of the players when they lose, it's a natural thing in BW - or at least I don't recall any instance where I got pissed at a T1 player for losing a big game or something.

I guess just the history of it, how it was founded and by who really got me started. They've always been a strong force. OK they bought (Z)

GoRush,

JulyZerg and (P)

Beesuit, but still.

What I love about SK T1, and what makes it always so fun to watch is that their fame is not only because they're fuckin rich, its because their fans are sooo excited (so am I) you can just feel the anticipation.

They have great players (umm (T)

Fantasy

Bisu

BeSt anyone?) and although they have not been famous for having the greatest Zergs, (Z)

s2 and even (Z)

Hyuk are changing that.

Speaking of (Z)

Hyuk...

As a huge Oz/Jaedong fan, I hate 'em. But I've been recently hating KT more. It's okay though because I'm a huge fanboy myself.

CJ fans are the worst 'OMG homegrown talent, Movie next big thing, OMG effort homegrown talent, neo savior, must be at least as good as jaedong and flash, heavy favorite against Bisu' etc. etc.

But we are almost as bad.

I liked SKT because they have a lot of good players. I don't enjoy watching a team like Oz, which is one player and other mediocre ones; I enjoyed SKT because after Bisu came out to play, big whoop, I wouldn't have to endure crap and hope that someone took it to ace so that the big player could win, like when I watched Oz. Instead, you'd have Fantasy and Best, two great players in their own right, OSL finalists, playing, and that would be a real treat, one that, with the exception of Stars and their lineup, is rare in today's proleague.

indeed

I dislike SKT because it lacks any interest in having a good zerg (and by good I don't mean hyuk)

of course stars fans are the best ^^ (and possibly the less represented team on TL)

edit: just a fun poll

please don't vote for your team.(massive SKT win otherwise). You should vote on who is the less fanboyish, who supports their team the most (not bandwagonners) etc. (if we take it as which fans are the most fanboyish it will be CJ, SKT at 50/50

I don't like SKT or their fanboys. They're just too many of you and it makes the community biased, which is sad since it's quite small.

I respect and like players like (T)

BoxeR and

iloveoov because what they've done for e-sport and I would gladly cheer for (P)

Bisu if it would make a better finals in a individual league, but as a team I really can't stand them. I see them a little as a spoiled kid :/

SKT1 is arguably the most successful progaming team, sponsored by the one of the largest SK companies, with the most awards, legendary players, and history than any of the other 11.

Basically, I would like to know your guys' opinions on SKT fans. Do you they're just frontrunners, like Yankees fans not from NY or Lakers fans but from LA?

Btw, my reason of being an SKT1 fan because of Bisu. I see a lot of people here share my love for him.

I switched to SKT because of Bisu. But I love the team even more now, with the emergence of Best and Fantasy. Also, Boxer/Oov = win.

They're like the yankees of BW, except with fewer successful free agent signings. So they are successful but you can't hate them just cause they spend more money. They just have better players! Also, boxer.

I've always loved Boxer (surprise..) and I fell in love with Bisu after he 3-0'd Savior. Also I've always liked Fantasy and BeSt. HyuK is awesome too :D So SKT is kinda natural choice for me.

Another team I root is WeMade FOX. I really started to like BaBy after I saw him on that GOM league that Tasteless commentated and knew that some day he is going to get a lot of televised games. They also have the baby bear Midas (who happens to be ex skt), NADA, Pure, roro, Mind and Shine. Awesome team!

I also like Woongjin stars just becouse they have Free, Zero, Kwanro and Crazy-Hydra

If I am representative for the whole bunch, they are all total douchebags.

But I've watching SC since Boxer first appeared, so I kinda gotte root for his team.
