Having a flashback here... wasn't it Naniwa who danced his units in the enemies base on Metalopolis and then still lost? I think it was at an MLG, don't really remember though :o

Yes. It was Naniwa vs MC and he danced his zealots thinking he had won but then MC had a dark shrine out of Naniwa's vision just barely and DTs won the game



Ahhh right, thanks ^_^

One of the reasons I like Scarlett. She not only will participate in LR threads, and the occasional Twitch chat, I've seen her post in the LR thread between her own matches of a set, commenting to the fans how she felt.

Of course, that should never be allowed to get in the way of actually playing/casting the games. And The Community seems to always do its best to dissuade any professional or large figure from ever posting again.

C'est le vie?

I hate that disrespectful shit like dancing units. Grow up kid.

How is it disrespectful? If anything, no gg is.

How isn't it disrespectful? The other guy is trying his best to survive with the series on the line and he just stops trying. And it was perfectly reasonable for Naniwa to stay in the game. It wasn't some boxer-esque or fantasy-esque gg timing with one scv left and a barracks floated to the corner of the map. Naniwa was finishing out the game the best he could and Crank purposely shows Naniwa that he has stopped trying his best. What constructive message can that possibly send?

No gg is definitely disrespectful but is obviously in response to the disrespect Crank showed first.


Why must it send a contructive message? Perhaps it is nice for viewers to see and exciting to people currently on the venue.

If you're going to start questioning why things ought to be constructive, then this discussion has lost all reason. We have to at least agree that good and constructive acts are favorable to neutral, bad and destructive acts.

You suggest that it's for the purpose of entertainment. Everything is entertaining to someone and we all want standards of integrity and professionalism. The discussion is about where to set the bar. You've got to make an argument that a certain gain in entertainment value is worth a certain loss in professionalism. Merely suggesting that there is a gain in entertainment value isn't very moving.

I don't expect us to be able to calculate what's best. It's a matter of opinion, a matter of what people prefer. I know of forms of entertainment that are much less professional and wholesome than progaming and if enough people in the community wanted to head in that direction then progaming would. I state my opinion to say I'd rather head in a direction of increased professionalism. If someone was in control of it all, I would appeal to them rather than publicly state my opinion.

How about when Ryung tries to proxy 2 rax Life, and Life successfully blocks that cheese and dances lings infront of barracks? Times like those, it is completely appropriate and hilarious.

We're getting off topic. The last game between Naniwa and Crank was not a hard fought victory. Skill was not really required.

Edit: So #1, no reason to dance. #2, no reason to expect a gg after one guy danced.


Indeed, naniwa not scouting as always costed him the game.

SC2 and video game culture is still in development. The level of taunting, celebration, or disrespect that would be deemed acceptable vs. unacceptable is still being determined. Spectators' responses in forums like TL will probably will drive where it would end up. Personally I have no problem with dancing units or manner mules. I think it adds flavor and personality to the game... of course, until the player you are cheering for loses and gets shown off.
Never!

You call this drama?

It's more like hilarious discussion between people who give no fucks and people who are upset.

alternatively between people who are biased in favor of naniwa and against him.

Here comes the old bullshit again but I can't help myself. If Korean want to come here and take our jerbs thats fine they deserve it but they want to be BM then they can just stay home. Dare I say that? Its just like yeah we know you come from this random island and will win everything, you don't have to rub it in.

What a terrible terrible definition of a professional player of sc2. So basically you only consider someone a pro AFTER they've won a competition because that's the only time you can really tell that they've made it. Or is it just that MVP is the only pro ever in sc2 because of the number of GSL's he's won? Wow...
