Plus Anytime is right-handed (edit: well and even if he were left-handed, you shake hands with the right one usually :D). Oov was focused on watching the replay, noticed Anytime, Anytime put his head down and Oov did the same. Plain simple. It was obvious to me when I watched it live, anyway. | ||

It was obvious to me too when I watched it live. Anytime made a gesture to shake hands, but oov just stared at him. In all of the cases, the player doesn't go up to the other just to 인사. It's not a Korean thing to do. | ||

He clearly disrupted oovs gameplan in the first game, and oov seemed shaken after that on Forte. Have you noticed how much more powerful "cheese" play is in game 1 in a BO-series compared to the game following a loss? Not a bad idea anyway since straight up protoss play doesn't seem powerful enough on this map. It's like players aren't mentally prepared for it that early, and it seems more expected by a player in a more desperate situation. I wonder if anytime would have sent his goon to scout proxy building on forte there if he hadn't won game 1. Perhaps oov could have put down a lot more mines in the center, but I guess he thought anytime had observers he didn't have. Anyways, the early advantage decided the game on a protoss favoring map. (at least from those positions.)Game 3 was cool play by oov though and he rode out the storm and punished anytimes cheekyness. He does it yet again??? Here anytime might have made one less at one stage zeal and produced more probes to get earlier goon. I don't think cannoning into oovs main would have worked here, since he already was so starved.Game 4 anytime did a buildg I thought myself might, just might work and a stronger choice than DT drop, but man. If oov had scouted with his wraith, anytime would have been a dead man. I guess he was too afraid to lose his wraith, and wanted to hunt shuttles with it. Bad call in hindsight. The double expand seemed unecessarily greedy, oov should have trusted his play and realized he doesn't need to outexpand anytime on 815. When the drop came, he was just caught with his pants down. Many ifs in that game and a lucky win sort of. 2/2 and we have a PvT finals where the championest of them all and a new strong contender face off. I'm happy. I actually managed to stay clear of any threads and just went for the vods so it was excititing up to the end of game 2 when I knew he won the series. I actually found myself relaxing at that stage. Phew, someone punctured oov's inflated ego. It's one thing to be cocky, it's one thing to have an attitude, but disrespecting his opponents is just lame. Glad he lost. | ||

I still haven't seen or heard anything that would indicate that Oov is arrogant. He's probably not the most humble for sure, and he always speaks frankly and honestly (from what I've read), but nothing arrogant. Well, apart from that, thanks for the nice sumups of the games. | ||

Reminds me of when Boxer was known for being the same, although no one could tell why (maybe except for alleged 'rumours' from when he was an amateur or something).

He's probably not the most humble for sure, and he always speaks frankly and honestly (from what I've read), but nothing arrogant. Well, apart from that, thanks for the nice sumups of the games. When I heard of the match against JJu whom I like who is cocky as well but in a more cheeky way I lost a lot of respect for oov as a competetive gamer. He was trying to fuck around and make ghosts and try and "own" him in a cool way in a game he was clearly just about to win instead of just finishing the game right away. That imo is BM. You don't see a marathon runner way ahead on the final sprint towards the finish, stop and make a silly dance or lie down and pretend to have a sleep and skip over the finish line just before the second place runner comes along. That would be outrageous, no? The same way in hockey when the other team has their goalie in the booth, a player who's free with the puck doesn't fuck around and do any cool moves etc and instead just lays it in. That would also be outrageous, yes? I've seen this once in a match and way to be booed. Edit: To clarify, I at least find it extremely rude too belittle someone who tried their best. I also think it wouldn't hurt to make it mandatory for the players to either shake hands (or bow if asian, but in soccer it's handshake, and they play that in Korea too, so why not. It also seems more personal to meand there is no confusion involved regarding how much you should bow etc given rank and status) before and after the game. | ||
