EPTBecause you need to mindgame opponents that are so inferior to you that you could probably beat them with a standard 4 gate.

"BM" part was Zerg's refusal to gg out when he clearly lost 100% ten minutes before first manner bases. | ||

Pros have been doing this kind of thing to lesser players for years in plenty of games. The commentators made it sound a much bigger deal than it is and now the reddit witchhunt will begin... *sigh* Agreed. Sase isn't generally a BM player, but if you're going to play in an open tournament with pros, you need to be able to hold your own. I'm sure the kid's come across manner buildings in ladder before (or other BM), but if he can't handle it, then he has no excuse playing in the tournament. It may very well be a strategy by Sase as well to put him on tilt. The game was well over anyway... | ||

Its a tournament... he should try to get any advantage he can, even playing against a lesser player. He's not insulting the boy and I'm pretty sure he'll get over a few manner nexi. When DRG does stuff like this on Teamliquid attack, its fun... when someone in bronze or silver gets absolutely smashed, but when an actual competetive person does get owned and has to face manner nexi... its SaSe being an asshole? Double standards... | ||

Defend ALL THE SWEDISH PLAYERS! You Swedes need to learn to not live vicariously through your sc2 players. It's okay to not like someone from your country. For example, I hate idra even though he's from the US. It seems when I watch these LR threads after a swede does a questionable thing, all the swedes are in here defending them to the death. Come on bros. | ||

You need to see the greater picture here: It's funny when Stephano builds manner hatcheries in MKP's base at IPL4. MKP responded in G2 by dropping 10 manner mules. That was funny. Two accomplished players mocking each other. Great show. Here we have SaSe, the clear favorite, used to being in the spotlight, who is playing against a twelve year old. Think about it. You, being twelve years old, playing on the big stage for the first time. 16k viewers watching, you are super nervous. You know the game is going bad, you lose so much to zealot harras already and you start feeling bad and panicing. What would you think if your enemy that is twice as old as you is even humiliating you then? This could destroy him! | ||

But because Sase owns him like he should and makes a show out of it everyone is crying from the bm. | ||

BM is not knowing when to give up, playing chess against someone who already lost but stupidly extends the game isn't fun either. The kid should have left 10 minutes ago. | ||

Like I said before, building nexuses doesn't have any real world impact. The person building nexuses shouldn't change his behaviour, rather, the people getting offended (people are seriously getting offended? LOL) need to get a fucking grip on reality. | ||

Apparently he's BM and SaSe knows him. So its just some fun with the kid. Give it over. He's been to LANs before too. So no big deal. | ||
