plz stop with the football comparisons. At the end of a seasons, when a team has nothing to play for, they will field a team with b-players/youngsters. Football is a team sport and those players have everything to play for even if the team doesnt. They are playing their best to increase their chances of getting in to the a-team.


I´ll make as many football comparisons as I please. Like u lol.

banes > marines

Let's assume off creep. Marines > banes.


stim marines yes, but not against speed banes

Btw, the post from guinea pig is a very good one
@MVPGuineapig: There's so many people who can't compete in leagues even if they want to.. are you mocking them?

Tell him to win a tournament if he wants a spot.


He can't be sent around to every foreign tournament like Naniwa is. GunieaPig has never been to a MLG, Dreamhack, or any tournament that he could qualify to get into the Blizzard Cup. Except the top three GSL rankings.

Why cant he? Because his team doesnt think he is good enough to win while naniwa is? Whos fault is that?


Because he's Korean and only select Koreans can go whereas so many foreign players who aren't as good can go.

I don't see the big problem with what Naniwa did, and to the people claiming it hurts eSports.. all major sporting teams pull equivalent moves.

For instance Manchester United will field a team of juniors and reserves in an insignificant match (if they're through in groups or have won the Premier League, ect), and I don't see football hurting as a sport.

Also, to be fair, 7 probe rushing isn't a worse tactic than what Nestea pulled lategame in the Blizzcon finals.

That isnt the same at all, thats giving their lesser and up and coming players exposure.

Thats like saying that playing your weak players in GSTL to give them a chance to play on tv to get over their nerves and some exposure is an equivilent move.

WHAT ARE YYOU TALKING ABOUT! lol

so because nestea made mistakes in a huge game or tried to play an entertaining game for the fans. Its the same thing as naniwa dissapointing all his fans , his team , and his opponent? Dont yoo see how illogical that is?

Both of those comparisons are so horrible it makes me want to cry.

I think they should make players play out all the games in a BoX, otherwise I am going to feel cheated of the games I missed. Especially if I paid to see them.

It is entertaining to see people that have already lost loose more, I love seeing games with unmotivated players being forced to play meaningless matches.

Zergs need to start making additional spawning pools when they get significant damage on their initial one.

Not a very good push from Leenock on the third. Did the spawning pool go down?

Damn, I think Leenock should have hit that marine heavy army with so few siege tanks earlier when it was clumped up together out in the open.

Nice overreaction by you forum guys.

How can you blame him?
He is pissed off and have no motivation to play after getting cheesed out of the tournament.

That last match means literally nothing for both of the players and shouldn't even have been played. It's a stupid format.


It is far beyond most people at TL to understand human emotion.

We want PROFESSIONALISM in ESPORTS, fuck how the players feel. -_-


Surprised to see a post like this coming from you. Obviously I disagree here.

While I think the forum has greatly overreacted, I still wouldn't shy away from calling naniwa's behavior disrespectful to Gomtv, fans, and other professionals.


If anything it is disrespectful of Gom to make players play worthless matches. There was no reason at all for that game to played. After that a bunch of forum people start complaining like there is no tomorrow. And you talk about professionalism? In what sport does a player or a team send out their a-team to play a match that doesnt matter???

We see this behaviour in every sport almost so I really dont understand the mass of haters.


Uhum? In every sport teams play matches that "doesn´t mean anything" but the pride in winning. That´s the very foundation of all sports. You seriously think the teams in the football world cup play to win some prizemoney? Even if a crappy team loses all their games they will still fight like crazy to take at least one win with them home, to show their fans that they tried their very best. You obviously don´t watch sports, or at least doesnt understand it.


Since you bring up football we can compare it to champions league. Last stage of group play when teams are already qualified you always see teams change their entire line-up for reserves. I guarantee you they don't do it for the fans....


I think you´re missing the point. The "reserves" play to win. In fact they want to win really bad. It´s the COACH that realizes he need to save the best players for the later stages. The coach knows the players will play to win every game, so he has to make the decision for the players.

Yes but the reserves play to win because they want to show his coach and other teams how skilled they actually are so they can get more playtime. If NaNiwa was like, ok this "b-teamer" toss in startale can play instead of me because he wants to get known then that guy would play his heart out.


I`m sorry but I don´t buy that. True athletes play to win. Period. Anything extra gained from the win is a bonus.
