So you hate Zero? what the fuck kind of logic do you have? He can't help if Horang2 made the stupidest decision ever and that Hiya died to basically zerglings.
People can't hate players for eliminating players they're rooting for?
Also, it was an exaggeration. Not that there are really many people contesting for the title of "most hated person in eSports".

But they do say that about players on a team.
I mean, I can't speak Korean, so I could be wrong, but I've heard them talking about how a player should GG, or wonder aloud why they aren't GGing, or something like that.
That's usually late in the game, where it's like 4 base to 1 base, kinda like a fantasy GG timing, but not when HiyA still had a chance to win.. crazier things have happened in other games.
Dude Hiya had no chance -_-
At the point where the commentator first stated that the game was over, he did.
He was very far behind, but if he decided to turtle, he could have fended off the mutas, and you never know after that.
He had zero marines and zero turrets while Zero's spire was well on its way, not to mention ling speed was upgraded. Assuming that Zero doesn't decide to hold position his mutalisks on top of Hiya's marines while not attacking, I don't think Hiya had any chance.
He had 12 marines and 1 medic and 3 turrets by the time he came with the mutas.
While Zero had 11 mutalisks, some speedlings and an untouched economy with three bases. Even slightly competent muta micro meant that Hiya was dead, which is what happened.
Anyway, on to Hiya vs Modesty! I believe in Modesty's terrible ZvT to believe that Hiya still has a chance here.
Even if he had no chance of winning, my point was that it was biased. Which it was. I don't hear them saying there was no way horang2 could have beaten zero, and his decision making and reaction time was even worse than hiya
I didn't hear it as being biased towards Hiya because he doesn't have a team at all. It was biased because he was basically dead in that game.
Pretty much the same exact game and commentators say the same thing about Flash, albeit on a lesser level because it's the finals.

I don't know about you but I'd much rather have ZerO than horang2 in OSL, and as much as I like hiya I don't think he'll make it into OSL, and even if he does, I don't think the games will be as good as if someone else got in.

Whether he was dead or not is irrelevant to my initial point anyway. It was biased casting.
