"Halo is easier to be good at so we play soccer and go fishing" It should say something that I played Halo at a professional level, and I put the same amount of time into Starcraft and I'm barely Diamond. | ||

Honestly, who cares? They swear far too much as well. These guys may be some of the greatest Halo players (I don't know), but there is nothing professional in their conduct and it makes me feel ashamed to call myself a passionate gamer. If you rise to the top of a community, you have to behave in a reasonable manner because you are an ambassador for that community. These guys represent themselves poorly. | ||

They spent most of the video praising the Starcraft 2 community and how it has become the benchmark for where they want the Halo community to be and they even shit talk the Halo community for being babied by MLG and not doing shit. In fact a whole movement has started by the Halo community influenced by what the the Starcraft 2 community is doing right, because they respect the monster of an eSports game that it has become. But obviously we are just gonna go off on what they said in the first minute. Sure that part was a big dick waving but Jesus Christ man. Not something to throw a bitch fit about. Austin "IMiKWeN" McCleary, a Halo pro, expressed his displeasure with the comments they made: While they are indeed community members, their opinions do not express the whole Halo scene. If JP went off shitting on other games, it doesn't mean the whole SC2 community is shitting on that scene. The Halo scene doesn't hate SC2. Yes i do admit i did not watch all of it, and i can agree with you on this point | ||

Love this btw ^^ They are clearly being silly and they probably should not have gone about bad mouthing starcraft 2 pros. They are trying to boost their community but it is a bad way to do it. On a side note no one plays halo reach compared to halo 3. The multiplayer in halo reach is a joke. | ||

(Just personal opinion, dont bother flaming me.) You do kinda prove their point, I've gotta say :D. Other than that, I don't think they were too serious. P.S. I've only heard of halo's existence because of MLG-s, so I'm not biased in the slightest ... edit : now that I've read through all the posts here - THEY are saying that they have more outside activites, YOU are bashing them because their game doesn't require as much time ... Ehm ... guys, you actually share the same opinion, only tl-ers here sound like they're getting a little defensive | ||

Second, they make a correct observation that Starcraft takes more dedication than Halo, and that there's less free time for SC pros. What of it? That's to Starcraft's credit as an esport relative to Halo. | ||

Let's just all love each other. If you don't like something, you don't have to pretend to like it. However, show it the respect it deserves. That goes for all sides of any debate on this topic, as this same damn discussion seems to be coming up everywhere it seems. Whether they are joking or not is irrelevant, to flip a shit over it and start this little dick measuring contest of "WELL OUR GAME IS BIGGER SO I DONT MIND LOL" is just as immature as what they may or may not be doing seriously. Be the bigger men in situations like these and treat them with respect. Don't stoop to their level, etc. If we set a good example, others will follow. It's that simple. /rantrantrant | ||
