People like you should go out, and stop watching SC2.

What ? Just because I say I'm not really fond of someone's smile ?? I like Nerchio man, nothing against him. I just said that this smile was so much like him making fun of his opponent. Trolling and provocation is really normal, but you have to do it in a certain way, in front of your opponent and not like this, smiling alone as if you were making fun of your opponent. Now maybe I'm thinking too much, but I know asian people (I'm not but I've lived in Japan for 8 years) actually really really care about that. You can make fun, troll and provoke your opponent, but there is a way to do it. Showing respect is the most important thing.
So now it's ok, it's HSC, everyone is having fun and Nerchio certainly did (EDIT: I meant did not) do that on purpose, but still I have the right to give my opinion and say I didn't really liked his smile at that moment.

Is this a joke?

Do people like you really exist? o_o

Sorry but I don't get where is your surprise coming from.

Saying a smile after winning is BM is pretty ridiculous though..

I mean.. dude... it's a smile...

Alright but you got my explanation right ? Just a small remark man, just a small remark. What about letting me think this and express myself a little bit. There is nothing that huge in what I said I mean.


So from what i can gather, in asia that is an insulting gesture after a win. How would you judge MC coming out of his booth in a murloc shirt jumping around in euphoria after a win? Respecting his opponent? Just curious

This is the mistery of culture differences man. Actually when trolling is done in a very visible way, it's not BM. But when it is done in a much more discreet subtile way it is actually more. For instance subtile sarcasms (especially irony) are really not well appreciated in Japan. I'm not sure about Korea. So now I reacted as being used to the japanese way, but again I really didn't want to say it did matter a lot. It was just a small remark about what I felt at this moment. Now as some mentionned, it is in Europe and this is true that the european way should be the right one. But still I don't get why just giving my opinion on this is such a big problem for you guys. You should cool down a little bit.

I think that when you start a shitstorm by yourself and nobod yagrees with you, you just quit and stop trying to prove a point nobody cares about because they are too busy hating on you, maybe you're in your right saying this but when you get flamed like this just step down man.

Those Naniwa gifs never get old. I'm always surprised how people can get upset about Naniwa being bm, he's just so awkward about it, I can't help but find it funny as hell.

And they are playing in europe, in european culture. I guess what you wanna get across is that asian culture is superior in even values as to when it is appropriate to smile. Ok fine.

I seriously doubt smiling is considered BM in Asia. I mean come on.

You're just not trying to understand my point about this and it's showing how childish and narrow minded you are. This is ridiculous I mean. Grow up guys really.
