I never understood why this was frowned upon by casters. It's really impressive to be able to hit keys semi-accurately with your feet. I'm impressed.

I remember the first time I saw this video, I sent it to many friends who do not play Starcraft, and all were like damn that's insane, and then asked me a bunch of question on the game he was playing, so I guess that brought marginal attention to an old game. That's awesome. Way to go Larva.

People love complaining I guess.

I remember a significant portion of TL being super up in arms about this. Personally, I was laughing my ass off, but I've never been too offended by BM/taunting/showmanship in real life sports or in video games. Just imagine being so much better than your opponent that you can win by playing with your foot hahaha. I do hope Legend is doing okay -- it must've been really hard for him when he realized just how big the gap in skill was. To this day I still don't know why he got so offended, he was calling everybody else noobs or whatever before the event, so he was definitely also trolling around a fair bit.

I thought it was hilarious. Greatest pro-gaming moment.

Glad he's still laughing about it. I still am. People need to loosen up. If the dude can beat you with his feet, so be it.

Did he practice these showboating moves at all? Even if you’re in the ascendancy I can’t imagine you playing with your foot at any degree without at least trying it out.

I’ll occasionally showboat vs a friend of equal skill and play left handed, although this frequently backfires. Generally more as a handicap against someone considerably worse than me, I did need to practice a fair bit to not be utterly terrible southpaw.

I think the funniest aspect is that he’s fucking around while his face is still super serious and intense looking.

Not like he played whole games like this.

If you're a pro at what you do and you're one level (or more rather) above your opponents then it should be easy to find some downtime to fool around, especially if you're already ahead.

Foot control doesn't even seem that incredible in this case because the mousehand gives you a lot of flexibility - he seems to have one lissome toe though which he used to press a specific key.
The left-handed play - or rather play with interchanged hands, or something - seems more impressive tbh, quite the on-the-fly coordination skills needed if he didn't practice this.

Seriously, no offence to anyone here...

But for 2 years I've been looking for the zotac broadcast vods...

I have been unsuccessful, mainly to try and make a tribute video for incontrol and the community from the amazing and laughter filled event.

If anyone has it, please contact me. It would be god send.

Thank you everyone.

I miss the old days of eSports, when people would throw toilet paper at each other...
Nowadays playing with your feet is considered the most bm thing you can do. I love Larva, BW needs more people like him.

This thread is randomly betting BUMPed for no reason. No matter what you think, Larva and iNcontroL were heroes of that event...

This exactly. Sc2 was so fun to follow and hilarious with all the Deezer/CombatEX/Destiny/Incontrol drama that existed at the beginning of WoL. Those were the fun days where you WANTED to tune in to a stream and see what kind of drama would happen and all the shit talk and grudge matches that were playing out. Yeah, was it like a soap opera? Sure. But there was personality in the game that made it enjoyable to follow. Now, we need these titans of the game to carry viewership like Serral having to have an unbelievable breakout year and first foreigner to challenge Koreans for people to want to follow. Numbers went back down again this year.

Ah yes, the key to SC2's success were Deezer and CombatRX

There was also a theory that Zotac decided to not host any additional tournaments in SC:R because of Larva's disrespectful behaviour towards chineese player.
So while the event got more recognition thanks to Larva's behaviour, we cannot be certain of its drawbacks.
