In my opinon this thread gets really really sad.

It basically comes down to a few simple points.

- map was in the pool, you call yourself professional you absolutley need to be aware of that.

- imba map ? Well maybe, but i wouldnt change the map either. Am i an asshole because of that ? I dont think so, there is money on the line, it stood in the rules. I personally would "rage" at imbatv but why would anyone hate the player ? I mean you can throw away your advantage but thats ... you know ?!

- Imo flaming during a "progamer-match" is something that shouldnt really ever happen, it makes everything just look so unproffesional.

Those are facts, you just cant argue with most of them. I dont hate incontrol, neither i love him - pretty cool mannered guy, as far as i knew till now -.
Imo this whole discussion makes it just worse, just stop it and stop flaming anyone. There are points for and against but i can understand cyto really well, and even every incontrol fanboy should read his post and rethink theire comments. Just think incontrol was in this position and wanted the "imba-map", everybody here would say YEAH SURE STOOD IN THE RULES LOLOL... think about it.

Don't worry too much, people love drama.

Overall, while it certainly might have been a little unfavorable for Incontrol, it's absurd to blow this thing out of proportion as if Incontrol only lost because of this map. He still lost 4-2 and he certainly had the possibility to win despite the map.

Also, based on his comments in this thread, but also for quite some time, I'm significantly more annoyed by Incontrol's double standards and ongoing overractions to any critical comment while he doesn't hesitate to use clear words himself. Yes, a manner-bear would have accepted the more balanced map, but a cool-headed person also would have accepted the bad map that is in the pool. Deal with it.


Is it that english isn't your first language?

I did accept the map. What double standards do you see from me? What overreactions?

In general you should probably just go away..

Wow, I didn't mean to insult you and I also like your casting, but the tone of you answer actually represents what I critized. I write a single sentence about you and you passively flame my language skills (or what did your question aim at?) and you tell me to "just go away". Why so angry?

Examples for overreactions: Instead of writing one clear statement (like Cypo did) you write a bunch of hot headed comments to random posters. That happens regularly after you have a debated appearance in a show. I have no problem with edgy comments, but that's what I refered to with double standards: You have no problem with expressing your oppinion in a very "direct" manner and want other people to accept it, but whenever someone slightly critizises you, you fall into a total defense mode (and tell them to "go away").

However, again, I don't want to flame you and I generally don't care about BM at all, my comment was just an observation. Just think about if maybe you could react a little cooler sometimes...

And also I hope this post pleases your language expectations. If it doesn't, please give me some pointers, I need to work on it.


I have had the same feeling for quite a while now, so thanks for pointing that out Antitheses. I used to really like Incontrol but his behaviour in this and a lot of others threads I've read recently is just silly and childish. Don't want to hate on him either but maybe he should consider working on that..

Anyways: I think people should stop making a big deal out of each and every mistake a player/organisation makes. Sure, the mappool situation was less then ideal but IMBAtv apologized and want to change it now so let's just move on instead of being like "Oh, they made this mistake, they suck, I will never watch anything they do ever again".

But I guess you're right, people love the drama.

I have to say I quite enjoy this whole incident.
Just a very good example why we should have standardized map versions and also an universal map pool of maps that are proven to be somewhat balanced. It's quite retarded when outdated and imbalanced maps are played and it's also too many maps and map versions around for pros to practice the maps properly.

That said the fanboys seem to cry a bit too much in here. Cytoplasm didn't do anything wrong. From reading the map pool it's pretty clear that it's not a modified version.

Also Incontrol, why so angry? From reading your posts in here you don't appear to be very likeable...
