If the numerous instances of red text in this thread weren't clear enough, it's time to simmer down, and think before you post.

I dont think the problem is the leangth of the break, but that you did the showmatch right after the big break for everybody... and not air it until now, without telling people that the replays are so old.

Of course people will complain because they compare these games that the games they saw on KSL (etc) last night.
Crazy people dont sit around and wonder if they are insane

People shouldn't complain when the entertainment is bad? wtf. Thats the whole point of providing entertainment, that the viewers like it. People expect a certain level of play when it comes to pros, and it obviously wasn't filled this time.

I dont know why you guys are so furious about these games, and how Inc took a break... They're not robots and dont practice 24 hours a day 365 days a year.

I personally enjoyed all the games and thought that while it may not have been the best play I've seen from these players, I'm content with getting to watch my favorite team duke it out among eachother, and be able to watch for FREE.

Just be happy with the fact that this is happening at all...

disappointing to find out the games were so old.

appreciate the effort at providing some entertaining content.

ps. buy Orb a real mic and not a crappy headphone mic.

Obviously, with 12k people watching and tons of people in this thread commenting and praising the entertainment.[Sarcasm] Surprisingly enough, there are other people in the world that have an opinion different from yours.[sarcasm again] It's ok not to like something, it's not ok to claim everyone agrees with you nor is it ok to just bash people. Turn off the stream, get out of the thread. Don't come here to take a dump on the players.

Overall not the quality I was expecting.

Then again, I didn't know professional gamers take two months of christmas break and then - right afterwards - play showmatches that get broadcasted three months later although they were hyped as "live" games. I mean...what?

Well, I'm happy to have seen Huk face Idra.


Haha when you say it like that it's pretty funny.

How long are we going to keep pretend that people putting out content is some form of charity for the community?

Wowww, two months? I mean, I can understand a break, but damn -- any job that lets you take a 2-month break is a really good job.

Yeah Incontrol why would you take a break between the tournament seasons you must have lost your passion

Sure there's commercials but do you actually pay for it? If not, then either be happy about what you get or fuck off.

I hear what your saying, but to play devil's advocate, taking 2 months off is suicide in sc2. If you're a top tier player like Mvp or Nestea then you can make an argument for it being beneficial. But an Incontrol tier player whose not top tier in North America taking 2 months off will take forever to catch back up.

Incontrol is fine though, he doesn't need to be a top tier player but a sc2 personality. I appreciate that Incontrol desires to be a top tier player but I don't think he has the time to really dedicate and make that a reality.

This post my come off negative, but basically what I'm trying to say is that Incontrol deserves the break and I don't see anything wrong with. BUT be realistic and don't expect him to be a top tier player any time soon.

Ok, sorry for exageratting. We had MLG in Novemver, trained up until then. After that there are 0 tourneys and we haven't seen family since NASL -> EG had me living at least 3 states away. I went home to ask ANna's family for permission to marry her / spend time with her for half of november / december.

Yep I have a great job that allows me to do that.

Fuck the people that don't care about us as people and just want to hate.

2 months just seems ridiculous. People who work full-time don't get that much time off in a year. The amount your skill would deprecate over that period of time...

read my fucking post. It wasn't 2 months. And it was for a good fucking reason. Get tired of justifying my life to a lot of you. Stop comparing my job to others.. it's NOT THE SAME. Go yell at some teachers for taking summers off you idiot.

i think the hardest part of your job is that thousands of people sit down and analyze every part of your life.

i bet if a thousand people sat down and scrutinized the people who criticize, they would get some empathy real quick.

hey idiot, teachers get over 2 months off for summer, with breaks in between. theres nothing stupid about that.

and what makes you think that every job must be a 9-5 without any set vacation time?

your logic is so bad it makes me cringe. its the type that people use to have it look good on paper, but doesnt work in practice. taking a break can improve play by giving someone time to rest, and even increase their passion for the game. its like when shitty teachers drill students with too much hw, thus leading them to have decreased test scores. i could go on about other topics...
