I don't get how people can't let this go, and I don't get how you can fail to see the difference between the two. === Stephano is too good, I want to understand ZvZ better but he just makes things work that no one else seems to. | ||

Well I guess most people are refering to this http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Tyler#Achievements and the fact that he apparently does not train as much as other players. | ||

Tyler's track record has been solid as a famous player going back into the early 2000's. Naniwa's track record is full of drama since his debut in 2010. | ||

It was the Koreans that took major offense. My opinion towards Naniwa's situation, Idra forfeiting the group matches at IPL 3, and Tyler's situation here is just mild disappointment. I'm not angry at them, I personally wish that they would have a bit more fighting spirit and not mentally defeat themselves so quickly. As for the difference between community reaction, which I feel in the foreign community is not too much, Naniwa did his probe rush on a televised match in the GSL. Major tournament. Tyler quit some matches in a relatively minor online tournament. Naniwa is seen as the "bad guy" of esports, due to his controversial nature, while Tyler has lots of fans from being on TL and other outreach that he does with the community. | ||
