That's just a silly generalization on their part then. They would have seen enough of Jinro, Huk, Haypro, Ret et al. to know that most foreigners gg. | ||

To not gg after a match is the same as spitting on someone as they extend their hand to shake yours or screaming obscenities at them after you lose. Idra was a part of the Korean scene for years. He knows the culture. He has no excuse. that metaphor is so wrong... not writing gg is the same as simply not shaking the opponents hand after a match. writing bm stuff in chat would be spitting on someone. | ||

But, at MLG last weekend, I found myself rooting for him because of his play. When he took apart MC in the first match, I was really excited to see his crazy macro zerg wreck possibly the best protoss on the planet.(Not interested in debating that) But by the end of the weekend, whatever sort of issues he has taught me the error of my ways in rooting for him. Not GG'ing Boxer seems like standard operating procedure to me. I'd say at this point, its people that want to excuse bad manners that I still find irritating. Idra is clearly what he is. Expecting different is silly. Its a bummer though. It sure seems like he could be one of the very best when his head is screwed on right... | ||

It's obviously personal. Not that it matters. It's actually kind of hilarious. | ||

The next time you are up to pitch, you will most likely try to hit one of the opposing teams batters. Boxer cheese, Idra didn't GG. Emperor or not, Idra can get ticked if he wants. Wait what? Cheese=hitting a batter with a pitch? Are you serious? Is that seriously the best analogy you have? Not only is it not even close to applicable, but it makes no sense. A rush is part of the game. Idra didnt defend. If you want to use baseball analogy, it would be a fastball Idra couldnt catch up to. Or a curve when he thought he was getting a change up. Boxer struck Idra out, and Idra has a right to be pissed. But he should be honored just to share the game with Boxer. You dont spit on the greatest person ever to play a sport. | ||

I do have to say that I agree with people said it is BM to not gg, especially to Boxer. I thought IdrA would gg to him no matter what as a sign of respect, even if the games weren't good. Either way, all the random shit talking should really stop. | ||

I figured there'd be a definite possibility of him not gg'ing, but that's obviously not the point here. Idra doesn't get excused for being BM just because he's idra. If someone bm's boxer then they deserve to get called out, it's only fair. | ||

Not in starcraft. In korean starcraft the gg is a sign of respect and is expected at the end of the game. Not doing it is far worse than not shaking someones hand. It is a personal insult. | ||
