Why the hate for ILoveOOv?

I notice that a lot of people hate ILoveOOv and want to see him lose no matter what, so much that they are willing to lose Liquibet points by voting against him. I love ILoveOOv. He plays like how I wish I could so seeing him play is inspiration. And also I like to see pure skill, no matter how artsy it is and ILoveOOv has a lot of skill.

Now of course other people see it differently than I do, so where's the hate!?

for those less skilled terrans, its not as fun to watch him. they absolutely LOVE boxer cuz hes so full of cool tricks, that they love seeing him winning. for those that dont appreciate pure skill with less artsy moves, they just dont want iloveoov to dominate as much as he does and put their idols down, like boxer. my guess anyways

Maybe they don't like his style? Or the fact that he used to be a BM player.

Out of 100 Iloveoov replays, you'll get about 5 different build orders. He's just boring...
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

1. If ooV loses, it's obviously a good game because ooV hardly ever dies to cheese or rushes.
2. ooV is the guy to beat. Beat him and you'll instantly become the most promiseful person in Korea, no matter past or future accomplishments.
3. He's a boring player with no variation or tricks
4. He beats people's fav player
5. The person in question hates Terran
6. Some other random reason

See Gryffyndor_us. He hates oov with a passion because oov pretty much replaced NaDa in the machine terran department. Yet he claims that oov is so 'boring.' If you ask me oov is the same breed as NaDa. What a hypocrit.

Its cuz he beat my two favourite players nada and yellow. I still voted for him but I would rather see someone like Silentcontrol beat him, and I hate silentControl with a passion.

Nada is so fun to watch. I remember watching a replay of him vs nal_ra where he doesnt even go vulture upgrades, just mass mass tanks. I also think nada's tvp harass is incredible.

ditto.

he's a typical terran play like a machine. seems like there is a trend in the pro-circuit: a cyborg terran pro dominates for a certain amount of time until a better cyborg terran pro arises. how many of these clones have we had already? nada, xellos, and themarine just to name a few. (OK, so xellos and themarine are 100% robots).

But there is a distinctive move that iloveoov likes to do in about 90% of his 1.09 reps and that 2rax, fast cc and even do a variation of a fast cc build more than 50% of the time vs toss.
I can still see that he had kept this trend up while conquering the major leagues.

so in short:
#1. he's terran
#2. there's no flare in his playstyle
#3. what's new?

ILoveOOv has mad charisma.

ILoveOOv and NaDa are different machine Terrans. NaDa will always get his natural and win with nothing else due to insane harrassment. ILoveOOv will always have more bases and win. The former machine Terran is more liked.

Anyone who says OOv has no variation is a fool. He doesn't have as much variation as BoxeR, but he still has a lot of variation.

here's my list of terran players with distinctive styles:

Boxer
Control - i like the fact that his skills is cloaked by his cheese-play reputation.
[Oops]Lee - before he moved in with KTF, he played so agressively. I see a resemblance in July's style these days.
Elky - lol.. desperate terran

tru tru, because iloveoov is very much a machine like nada, going with safe and powerful build, while boxer is trying cute stuff and always trying to get an advantage off the enemy in anyway he can. i love iloveoov cuz he has perfect macrot.T

That's what I like about Boxer. He sees an opportunity to do something cute, and he does it. He doesn't try and be perfect. He tries to be entertaining. That's what I like about Boxer. I mean, who wants to watch someone who just does the same thing, over and over again?

oov frequently uses "boring" fact/cc or 2-rax cc builds simply because his macro is awesome. it's the same reason boxer likes going starport and dropship--he's good at it. until the other pros learn to beat oov's expand-macro-win style (as julyzerg exploited) then he will continue to do it. there's nothing wrong with it, and is impressive simply because the opponents KNOW he's going to do it yet still can't stop it.

i became on oov fan after that game vs nal_ra on requiem where he stopped rA's cannon rush... it showed he was versitile and could adapt to situations creatively. (nexus kill vs zeus, etc)

he's simply the favorite, and lots of people don't like the current dominant player. this favorite status coupled with his "boring" play style that makes people dislike him.

Yes he is cocky. He tried to be a boss and chatter out mistakes of pros before he even became a pro

Don't know why I hate him. Maybe it's his face... I loved almost every single Terran Gosu there is except him. Sync, Xellos, NaDa, BoxeR... Don't know why just hate him, I don't think it's jealousy because most of the above players espeically Sync play boring too and owns but I still love him... Yeah It's his face, and that ugly girlfriend of his... ew....

Hmmm, I don't agree w/ that. Almost all top Korean Zergs have style. JulyZerg certainly displayed his art against ooV in the semi-final match, and yellow has shown his art countless times. In terms of Toss, GARIMTO is full of all sorts of art play, along w/ giyom, and many other top toss.

Everyone hated Nada when he dominated the progaming scene (especially Boxer's fans.)
Same thing I guess

For me, I don't hate him. I just like other players playing him 'more'.

I don't think it's the player.
It's the fans associated with oov. A lot have an image as fair-weather fans. They liked Nada cuz he was doing well, liked XXX cuz they were doing well etc etc. It's like they arent true fans of a player but a fan of whoever wins and people don't wanna associate with a bunch of fair weather fans. That's my guess. And usually I'm right...

NaDa sucks now. People know his playing style so he has to change his style, which he won't. He once said that he does not like to play island maps because there is too much thinking involved. Hell I'm 3-0 vs. him.

It's the fans associated with oov. A lot have an image as fair-weather fans. They liked Nada cuz he was doing well, liked XXX cuz they were doing well etc etc. It's like they arent true fans of a player but a fan of whoever wins and people don't wanna associate with a bunch of fair weather fans. That's my guess. And usually I'm right...


Not me.

NaDa sucks now. People know his playing style so he has to change his style, which he won't. He once said that he does not like to play island maps because there is too much thinking involved. Hell I'm 3-0 vs. him.


Haha. If someones going to steal my name I'm glad it was you ^^.

I at first hated oov for taking out Yellow... then I started to like him. why? Everybody here doubted his skills while I knew he was a very awesome player. So while defending oov, I grew to root for him.

Boxer and Nada often play to specifically entertain viewers, while OOv just does what he has to in order to win(usually with little or no deviation from the norm), which can often times become repetative an "boring". And he beats players who play cutely.
The following statement is false The previous statement is true

See Gryffyndor_us. He hates oov with a passion because oov pretty much replaced NaDa in the machine terran department. Yet he claims that oov is so 'boring.' If you ask me oov is the same breed as NaDa. What a hypocrit.

Actually there's some differance. OOv attacks at 200 supply. Nada at 160

It seems oov has kind of bad micro and I dont like that style..hes just using all his time for his mad macro.
In a fpvod vs dream.t.siva i saw him drop 8m@m at the side of 9, stim the rines, and just attackmove towards the base, then going back to macromode. Maybe he got a spire or den or something in the base, but he didnt care-_-, he never looked til it was dead

Yeah his small group micro is not at all good compared to his 'many units micro' which is amazing!

Which is why I like boxer~

Might I also throw the oldschool Tsunami in there? His style was art.

I don't like or dislike OOv. I hated Nada, because he beat Boxer, and when OOv too Nada down I hated OOv... I'm not sure why, but once Nada started to lose, I started to like him...

no charisma! where's the allure? a sledgehammer does not please the eyes like a swirling blade!




it's not oov that we hate, its the way everyone else thinks of him (ie. oov is the best player ever, he is indestructible, oov is godly etc.)
