haha why are they showing naama laddering on stream2? ;-)

Haha, because they only have Nerchio vs. Snute left from the 1st two groups and he is already playing?

Hasu vs. Sleep?
But I guess they wanna show it on the main stream.

How is it that Dimaga is in the frame with Nerchio but he is casting at the same time? wtf?

When Dimaga beat Nestea in a bo3, Nestea granted him the power of being able to travel through different dimensions and break the laws of the universe


Oh okay that makes sense thanks.

I am quite sure he is trying. The difference between Nerchio and Bling is huge though unless Bling has a fantastic day.

Snute should have asked Bling to try harder for his sake

So what? It doesn't mean that Bling isn't really trying, dude's out of the tournament.

He said Bling isn't really trying, and they are pointless for Bling.

I must say, this Polish casting trio is great. Tarson is hilarious, Mana is one cheeky mate, and Carmac is the one trying to keep people under control for once.

Well, it is. Snute vs Nerchio will decide who advances.

Depends on how much he likes Snute.

Seeding for Nerchio, if he wins against bling and Snute he tops the group.

They should just get Golden instead of MVP.
If he's not willing to represent his sponsors then at least give someone else the chance to have fun.

He flew half way around the world for a 3 day tourney with a relatively small prizepool. He's obviously representing his sponsors.

Maybe if they were Korean only brand.
If you get a international sponsor you at least make an effort before an international audience.
Else it looks like you're there only for the money.

he's hired to play sc2, not an entertainer to amuse you.

This mindset is why NA aren't catching up. too caught up with the "image" instead of improving. I agree he could use some media training, but his true job should be good at the game instead of being a caster. That's what people like artosis and day9 exists for

Someone obviously doesn't pay attention to the BW scene in Korea.

I do, even though what you said is extremely irrelevant. You might as well tell me "someone obviously doesn't pay attention to the MMA scene in Asia". sc2 != broodwar.

you don't have a central organization like kespa that enforces "media training" and image building for top pros, and even then no amount of training is going to help some pros who are just shy in nature (pretty much most hardcore gaming nerds)

I rather MVP stay good if it means not needing to amuse you with piss poor English and crazy antics. He can be awkward, shy, or whatever, as long as he can professionally do his job and has results to show for it.

Also shyness is probably most us nerds can relate to, why is it so surprising that the best gaming nerd is shy infront of people?

Why can't he speak english and dominate? Plenty of other players seem totally capable. 3 of the most famous SC2 koreans worldwide are DRG, MKP, and MC.

I wonder why?

Being personable is investing in his future in the scene. It isn't simply to entertain us, it's to ensure he is still a major figure down the road. I'm not saying that the idiots who say "texting while casting is disrespectful" are right, but I am saying a little effort on Mvps part will go a LONG way.

You know who's probably more famous than all 3? MVP. He doesn't talk much, and even on GSL OtR he seems more conserved than others. And as long as he still delivers trophies and racks up insane amounts of money, I don't think anybody can tell him that he needs to be more "personable". The results really just speak for themselves.
