You seem to forget all the times people have said such things so far in GSL 3 and been completely wrong about it. Since when did MC turn into God?

I feel really bad for Rain. Poor guy doesn't deserve the hate.

Q. Who do you want to advance to the final?
A. I want oGsMC to advance. I think Liquid'Jinro will probably advance, but I'd prefer if oGsMC did instead.

I was very impressed with Rain's mental toughness. It could not have been easy for him to compete at that level knowing how angry everyone was at him (anger that I don't understand — he played to win and did what he had to do). He seems like a nice kid too, so I wouldn't mind if he ended up winning the whole thing.

Am I the only one who finds it funny that a guy is in the semi-final who responds to a scouted 4 gate by finishing his expansion CC? Not to mention doesn't make more bunkers or bring out his scv's.

This entire series was just so bad :/

Q. Who do you want to advance to the final?
A. I want oGsMC to advance. I think Liquid'Jinro will probably advance, but I'd prefer if oGsMC did instead.

Remember who you are haters, you should be ashamed of yourselves.

I believe Jinro says he doesn't stand as good as chance as oGsMC in the final, not because he doubts his abilities as a player, but because he realises that protoss is too strong against terran in late game and oGsMC will be the type that knows how go high templar.

The top players understand this game balance more than anyone and they are reluctant to say it outloud because so many aren't willing to accept the reality of possible imbalance. That would challenge and put into question the achievements of all starcraft players and infer that their gameplay victories are more about class mechanics than equivalent player skill.

Some people are just so fed up with losing to a particular race, and, instead of adapting and getting better as a player, it is much easier for them to blame the game than take a good look at what they could be doing differently to become better as a player. I think this is why we so much hate on Rain, despite the fact that he outplayed Nestea and Nestea did make serious mistakes that caused him to lose.

When someone says something that conflicts with their beliefs, it creates antagonism towards that person for a lot of people.

Jinro was wise on not elaborating why he thought he didn't stand a chance against MC.

so much unwarranted terran hate just because people are tired to losing to terran they are blinded by the reality of the situation that Rain played the best way he could against a zerg opponent.
