Because they are better. 100% of the time. Any loss is a fluke, jetlag, lag, bad day, etc. Sometimes the underdog wins. Mvp wasn't doing anything special in his games and probably thought he could just play his standard way and overpower goswser. However goswser very obviously prepared a lot for these matches and outplayed Mvp every game. I am a huge Mvp fan but he straight up lost. People on here whine about the scene dying yet whenever an upset happens, i.e. non korean beating koreans they will pull out every excuse in the book to explain as if a non-korean player who works hard and beats a strong opponent OFFENDS them. Then you wonder why interest in the scene declines. I feel like I've had to say this like 10 times. This guy gets it. I will never understand the "best player should always win" attitude. | ||

Leenock had the resources to make more Roaches and take a 3rd, Life didn't. That's why he went and tried to poke, saw Leenock's army was bigger, had to pull back. Then Leenock just came and killed him. | ||

Then you wonder why interest in the scene declines. I feel like I've had to say this like 10 times. I think one of the reason is because of the race. Whether it is by chance or other issues, most of these foreigner 'breakthroughs' have been Zerg. It is like the Korean Terran issue in 2011. Players like Happy, Ganzi, etc never really got their due. When they made GSL Ro4, people were like 'Oh, they played Terran, of course they will do well.' I mean, Sniper's GSL victory was probably the most downplayed GSL ever. Sure, he wasn't a fan favorite. But I am pretty sure he would have gotten more love if he played Terran or Protoss. | ||

Then you wonder why interest in the scene declines. I feel like I've had to say this like 10 times. I agree. It is actually good to have upsets where the underdog wins. It makes the games more interesting and the outcome more on the knife-edge. Also having more players like Goswser emerge to challenge the established players is good for the scene as it shows growth. As players leave we need new players to come through or the player base will shrink until it is negligible. I understand some folks might be upset because their favourite lost but they should be used to it, as SC2 is not a game where anyone has 100% win-rate or even close to it. Goswser deserves credit for decisively defeating MVP. MVP may have a bigger list of achievements to his name but past achievements do not win SC2 games, it is the actions within the game that determine the victor. Victories are not given but need to be earned - every game. | ||
