He told san something like "gg your 4gate is very gosu" or something. It could be interpreted as sarcastic BM if you want to look at it that way but I really think it was just a compliment.

If that came from any other player, I'd call it BM, but I have my doubts from the oh so polite and manner White-Ra.

Of course we wanted to see White-Ra advanced, but San did an EXCELLENT job with his 4 gating. Great micro with quite clever probe and pylon positioning, that clutch pylon at White-Ra's ramp from the doomed probe in game 3 was an absurd call San made which paid off in the end. San really seems to be improving in PvP in a huge way. I just wish PvP was less broken, I feel White-Ra is frustrated that there is only one viable opening in the matchup.

When White-ra beat MC, it was White-ra outclassed MC.
San beat White-ra, it was just a coin-flip matchup.

I am 90% sure it was bm from him. He said something similar in IEM to Tarson when tarson was sitting whole game with million tanks and white ra couldn't do anything about it. He said "gg you are gosu" and left, and then in interview he said that Tarson whole game was doing nothing, just tanks and still won.

As a protoss player i would love to see 4gate weakened. =( Seeing pvp is garbage sometimes and playing it is even worst, everything you want to try out you always have on mind if it will survive against a 4G push and often times the answer is no. 4gate completely ruins any kind of cr4eativity or development of PvP. Wish blizzard could do something about it in a way that wouldnt hurt other MU.

what did whitera say?

He said that San was gosu at 4-gate. Knowing WhiteRa, it was an honest compliment.

WhiteRA can't BM, remember this. He's mannered like no one else!

How do those two go from "Were off today, not very funny"
To the best "sandwich save" ever seen on live tv? Spectacular.

I think it's rather telling of the state of PvP when a compliment about a 4 gate is inherently sarcastic, even when the guy giving the compliment isn't.

Makes me remember the IdrA vs Nazgul serie at MLG

One player abusing a gay strat during 3 games.

Too bad white-ra...

And LOL @ people thinking that was bm... Even compliments are BM now?

to many saying something about a 4gate at the end of a game, especially when you lost to it, it is bm since the build is what it is. White-ra just proved them wrong though.

So sad about that game. WHY did White-Ra not go for 4 Gate in 1 Game T.T

Also didn't San go for a 3GateRobo OneBaseAll-In against White Ra in Game 1?
