I'm still supporting WeMade regardless. Even if Wemade doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell of making it to the playoffs after 5 rounds, I still take great pleasure in watching the team randomly upset the favorites. Always fun to watch.

Now Nada you need to get back in form soon.

bandwagoning isnt so bad because fans who just follow are better than no fans at all. we need more fans of esports

Well you do not have to love and cheer for the best player or team. Fans choose a team mostly because of they got player they love, or the teammanager they cheer for. Beeing a fan of someone is a personal thing

I agree with almost everything you wrote. Good article and props for voicing a (seemingly) unpopular opinion on a big stage.

I can't agree with some parts of the article, I'll prefer Casy's fake against July in 2007 rather than any game from the latest OSL. Maybe I missed something, but current game does not admit genius, only sick macro and very well prepared tactics.
It's just another game and not every noob is welcome to offend a player he know nothing about. Even I don't like Bisu I have to respect him, even if almost all Savior funs will forever hate FBH many of us still respect him.

for people saying that its stupid to be a fan of whoever is winning at the moment, what about being a fan of whoever is playing really good sc right now? i'm a fan of really impressive starcraft => fan of jaedong!

true.

but you have to give credit to them as players of that time. in another couple years and we look back at jaedong he might look like some half-baked limp-wristed B-class noob.
Yea that looks just like Kang Min... amazing game sense... and uses mind games well, but has the micro of a washed up progamer.

i certainly hope that's possible... but my brian hurts just trying to picture it!

Micheal Jordan invented dunking. Lebron James is just a power foward who can't shoot the outside ball. Jordan had a 50% field goal percentage. He won 6 championships. What is James? A big whiner.

Great article, I did expect something bigger but then again - TL.net articles are sometimes so big I can't even read them properly because my concentration goes away

Keep up the good work

Cj is ok I guess..... but MBC is going to win this year

Though I cant help but cheer for CJ seeing as how I met a lot of them at Blizzcon.

This is SO 3 months ago.

Well, in 1939 it would be wise to think "hey let's bandwagon Hitler, coz he's winning". Hard to believe the french and some others actually fell for this.
First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight with you, then you win.

Recognizing that players now are better than players back then is not disrespecting old progammers... saying that they are shit is disrespectful...

old players cant seem to adapt to the new styles, that does not give you the right to disrespect them.

anyway, it was a good read. I have to admit that we have to keep it real sometimes but you know what? Nal_Ra kicks ass...

I won
