The reason I don't really like Kal is because he's always such a disappointment to me. I always see him do something cool and hope that he'll do something really impressive, yet in the end he always falls just short of it. I got quite annoyed of that. The game that really pissed me off that Kal played was his series vs Effort where he got 3-0'd when I was sure he'd make the finals. Kal's habit of choking is indeed annoying at times, but he does have some impressive plays sometimes as well. It's not that I hate his gameplay, but I just can't really like him for some inexplicable reason... So to avoid misinterpretation, it's not that I hate Kal's gameplay or as a person, it's just that he doesn't really do anything to make me particularly like him. I don't know. Kal's just Kal. >< | ||

Seriously, if you don't want the flame war among fanboys to happen, don't start it in the first place. Look at Bisu's and Stork's fans, we are respectful towards each other, so why can't you Kal's fans do the same ? Did you see any Bisu fans BM towards Kal in this thread ? Some of us even support him since he's also a Protoss, so stop being jealous just because many people support Bisu. I didn't say what Gescom said was unacceptable, I questioned the validity of the accusation of BM. The question here isn't Kal fans BM-ing Bisu, it's people questioning Bisu's place in an MSL ro16. While you might not agree with his opinion (I'd say he does deserve to advance from the qualifiers, I just don't want him to), I think an accusation of BM is out of place. If that counts as starting a flamewar, I'm really afraid of becoming a fan who gets offended by such a statement. Cheep's comment is way too overdebated already, let's move on. EDIT: added names to avoid confusion. EDIT 2: This is not the OSL, it's MSL. Don't know why I wrote it wrong. | ||

Bisu has been dropping out for a long while now, and thus the statement " he belongs elsewhere" is definitely acceptable, IMO. That argument gets used a lot for other players too, and is a hundred times better than comments which have been appearing on Team Liquid whenever Shine manages to upset Bisu/anyone else. I do admit, this thread is pretty immaculate, compared to what I'm expecting to see if Bisu loses again for some reason, but by here, I meant Team Liquid in general. I somewhat hope the banwaves have taught a lesson, but I'm not too hopeful. I hope that, if Bisu were to lose to Shine, that people will be more respectful towards him.. especially following a 14 game win streak! ^^ That being said, it just seems crazy to even try and take a stab at Bisu. Yes, he has had bad starleague performance as of recent, but he's already got 3 titles under his belt, best ranked player in proleague for 2 years in a row now and is 3rd in ELO. Why even both saying he "belongs" in prelims. Michael Schumacher just finished a full season without finishing once on the podium. No one in their right mind would say, oh he "belongs" in 12th place. The same goes for any other marquee athlete in whatever sport you'd like (Gretzky on the rangers, Jordan on the wizards, anything). What surprises me though is that people never, ever take shots at the old greats. July was a lot like Bisu with regards to his surge of dominance and then fading out for a long time after that. Would someone ever "loudly question" Reach? Maybe people just have overwhelming nostalgia or something... but there's no really no bad words for any of the S class players. That's why they're S class. edit -- typed this up before seeing mustaju's latest post. I just think people should be more respectful of the players, especially the top level players who keep BW as amazing as it is! ^^ | ||

While Kal wasn't really playing up to what his maximum potential that series I don't think you should discount Effort, after all he did end up beating Flash for the title. Deep in my heart I really hope that his recent performance indicates that he's getting over his performance issues and can take this OSL to the finals. Winning this group would do a lot for his confidence overall I think. | ||

It'll be interesting seeing as Bisu is stuck against both Shine and Kal. if Bisu gets past this group, I think he'll be one of the favourites to at least reach the finals. | ||

As a stars fan I would really like to see really (oh man im so funny) advance; but as a Protoss I'm a fan of Kal and definitely of Bisu. I'm no shine anti-fan but I like all three better so I'm hoping that Bisu and either really or Kal can make it through. | ||
