I think they will keep moral up. Getting loss first game due to not being able to get there on the other hand, that would probably tilt them alot.

it's their own fault tbh

flying 13 hours before games begin, during winter, to a country which is well known for it's snow is pretty stupid

Of course they will postpone it , what does it matter ? you shuffle your games around abit and you are done , Alliance can even get the disadvantage of playing their 3 series straight at the end of the day if they can be there early enough , but there shouldn't be any need to hand out auto loss for the first game of the day .... come on.

The Allaince fandom goes straight over my head. I will never understand why people cheer for mediocrity. Surely the joy is in watching the game played to it's fullest potential.

In the same vain I will never understand why people enjoy Bulldogs stream. It's like a slightly risquè childrens show.

To each their own I guess.

Damn that really sucks for them. I feel like they definitely needed the experience of playing some really good teams in the run-up to Shanghai, especially a game against EG. Oh well, hopefully we'll get to see them somewhere else before then.

I mean, you're saying it as though people specifically like Alliance because they're not a top-tier team, which is obviously not the case. People are fans of teams for multitudes of reasons, such as playstyle, nationality, the personalities of the players / how much you like them as people, et ecetera. If being the best was the only thing that mattered then only like 3-4 teams would have fans at all, which would be silly and definitely not very good for the scene. And it would also mean as soon as a team slips slightly below the top you stop being a fan of them...? Doesn't make much sense to me.

And yeah, Bulldog's stream is not for everyone obviously. Some people like his humour and some don't, no great mystery there.

That's one very narrow way of looking at it, I guess.

Because being a fan om someone is the same as idolising them and to idolise someone for something they are mediocre at is completly sensless. I'm a mediocre cook, feel free to idolise me.

I'm not a fan of a particular team, why would you be? There are teams I enjoy watching, usually because they are good and because you can learn something. It's the other position that doesn't make sense, why would you be a fan of a team? What do you get out of that relationship?

This isn't a fan club, so you aren't required to be a fan to post here, but telling people that "being a fan is stupid" isn't exactly helpful. You aren't a fan. Great. Don't attack others for being fans.

Not really, planes get cancelled (Especially in the middle of bloody winter), trains get ahead. If you need to be somewhere you need to take that in to account. If you don't that's your fault. It is not like it was something it was impossible to see comming.

I'm not telling anyone what something is or isn't. Neither have i attacked anyone for anything. I am stating why this is hard to understand from my point of view and honestly I'm curious as to what peoples reasons are.

Wow, you have completely missed the point of being a fan/cheering for a team. So we're only supposed to be fans of the teams that do exceptionally well?
I'll call Chelsea FC tomorrow and tell their fanclub to pack up their things and go home.
As someone above me stated, you can be a fan of teams/players/people for a multitude of reasons: Playstyle, personality and flair are just a few of them.
I can't decide if you're trolling or not. I'm making the Jackie Chan face right now staring at your line of reasoning in pure disbelief. Like, what the ****??
