Dude, this is not Soccer, which has the most retarded "fans" of any sport. It is totally OK to root for and be a fan of several players. I also follow tennis, and I don't only have one but 3 players I root for. Djokovic, Nadal and Ferrer. There is nothing wrong with that.
EDIT: On the contrary, I think that it is awesome, that most people in the SC2 community like many players. Put that into contrast with sports like Soccer, which attract a fair amount of retarded people, who use sports as an excuse to pick up fights and beat other people up.

Sure, it is possible, but some sports tend to attract the wrong kind of people, who downright hate others who don't root for the same club/player. You being from Austria are surely familiar with the animosity between the fans of Austria Wien and Rapid Wien?

my post wasn't meant to be in response to yours, but BlackZetsu's! I dislike these kind of people you described, CheddarToss!
Well, BlackZetsu, just because that I also have a strong liking for Zest doesn't mean that I can't support herO in his ups and downs and vice versa. I think you're a bit too extreme here. Even when it comes to SC2 teams, I couldn't decide between JinAir or KT either. Being a fan doesn't limit you to just one player or one team, and your favourite player or team doesn't necessarily be the best at all times. Cheers

What's strong with strongly liking several different players, or viewing many favorably compared to others?

I don't know, just seems trollish to go to a player's fan club, then argue against someone there who thinks that player is the best.

So fanclubs are meant to be a brainless accumulation of "he's such a god", "he's a beast", etc? I find it much more constructive (and it also makes the threads more lively) to have fanclubs be "player discussion threads". You can be a 'fan' and accept reality, you know. For example I'm a big CJ fan but I acknowledge that what they show in PL currently is very poor, I'm not blinded in thinking that CJ is the hottest team right now.

Haha, I noticed that since like season 3 last year he started to be much more active in those group selections. Even if he's not on the mic, he's constantly talking to other players :D Also he did say in the show trailer "this time I'm gonna be the devil"
I'm hoping that Afreeca will upload the VoD, I need to make few screenshots or gifs, especially the "Hey sOs, I'm the top seeder lolololol" xD

The VoDs are are available on Twitch and AfreecaTV tho. Also he was talking to Speed the entire time, I think they told Trap to get soO and planned the switch even before the groups selection is done

Aren't the Twitch VoDs sub only though? I have to check out Afreeca
Well, that is definitely a possibility. I mean he'd probably want to have Taeja in his group and, as he said, he wouldn't do it to Zest to have another teamkill

People like you, who say things like this really have no sense of who their talking about, like seriously who are you? Are you saying herO sucks, are you implying YOU KNOW HOW TO PLAY THE HIGHEST LEVEL of PvP (by saying herO has no clue)? Are you better than CJ herO? Let's see how many games you can win against sOs? Or herO? Or just any Grandmaster or even Masters player? (If you are a Grandmaster player or masters player, good for you) CAN YOU TAKE GAMES OFF HERO? NO? Then don't say he has no clue, cuz he's much better than you.
just had to throw this out there lol, it's a late post but yeah....
