But yes, it's the Kespa fans who come crowing over every frikkin' victory these days because Kespa is the cool thing to support, the "new" kids on the block (maybe an opportunity for the old fans to flaunt their superiority). I think a major reason this is happening is because KeSPA fans felt disrespected back in 2010 when new fans who only followed SC2 and eSF players started proclaiming new gods and heroes of StarCraft (which were mere B-teamers and punching bags in BW by the way). KeSPA fans couldn't stand that these players were freeloading in SC2 while their heroes were stuck playing BW and had to go through a long and tough transition period. Now that that's over and KeSPA is here to stay for good, the old school fans are seeking a sense of vindication. This will last until tournaments are dominantly represented by KeSPA (which includes KeSPA picking up straggling eSF pros).  | ||

I don't know what to call the situation where losers bully around the neighborhood when the real gang leaders aren't around. | ||

In general you're correct but I think your example is an exceptionally bad one. In my opinion Jaedong is one of the lesser KesPA zerg players (even if his ZvZ is by far his best) while Life is without a doubt the best eSF zerg player. I would not be surprised if Life adapts to the new ZvZ and performs at the top with players like RorO and soO. | ||

Go back to the terrible BW forums and stay there. We don't need your pathetic sense of superiority here. User was warned for this post | ||
