It wasn't retarded neither offensive, it was childish, something expected from a kid, and he is a kid, on a event where the players can be themselves. So yes, it is ok. | ||

I started hating the guts out of xlord after that stephano scene and because i hate his face overall but this..... this is beyond everything. What kind of retarded sense of humor can someone have to pull something like that in that kind of situation...... It was unthinkable. The situation was a bunch of young guys doing an informal ceremony in a bar with most people having been drinking alcohol. The fact that he did not wear a tuxedo and did not address Take by "Mr. Gehlen" was frankly insulting. And who could expect that a person who named himself sexlord would be childish enough to find that kind of humor funny. It certainly looked like Snute was about to cry. I can't imagine how emotionally distraught he is over that malevolent sexual assault. Now hating someone because you hate his face, that is a mature thing to do. And forming strong opinions based on a written account of the event is absolutely how it should be done. | ||

-What i liked especially is that the amount of Koreans was perfect to create excitement even in the later phase of the tournament. -Europe is growing really strong, especially when you consider what strong players were missing (Naniwa, Thorzain, Nerchio, Duran Duran, Titan,...) -Openminded people saw some interesting ZvZs, where the highlevel commentators worked out the decisive details in a nice way. -Openminded people don't need the highest level of play to enjoy an exciting tournament, the ultra high level of this tournament was enough to provide us with awesome games. -Players casting or casters with high master level still make for the best casting. -People who want to be offended or hate on players will always find their niches. But please carry that stuff over to Reddit. I prefer quality content on TL.net and drama on Reddit. | ||

I mean, the players are joking with eath other all the time, just look at the vod of that scene, everbody is laughing, and snute as well. Yes its childish humor, the same kind of humor you'd expect out of some calling himself Xlord (or Sexlord), but its not mean-spirited and certainly doesnt justify all the hate. I dont exactly appreciate xlords behavior, but this is just unnecessary drama. Plus, saying you hate someone because you dont like his face is equally "retarded". | ||

It's okay now, you can all open your Vogues now and tittle-tattle with your BFFs about how Kim Kardashian has a horrible fashion sense. | ||

On the other hand, I didn't watch from the round of 4 on and I think many people did the same. The amount of viewers has been going down steadily lately. I imagine zvz fatigue has a good amount to do with it. Terran is once again very under represented in tournament finals. 29 premier tournaments since May. 58 finalists. 9 of the 58 are terran. Let that marinate for a minute. I know premier tournaments aren't the best indicator of balance, but its 29 of them over a 7 month period. I'm sure it can't help viewership and I hope Blizzard works on this if not in Wings, in HOTS. I really don't want all of those sc2 is dying posts to be right. | ||

Gsus, this 'GROWING ESPORTS' thing is so bad, watching Darkforce lapdance and 'OVERLORD BAUN' and just laughing at it was so much more fun than this weird debate. | ||
