Yeah. Time to practice HotS ZvZ really hard:

I don't know if you guys follow college sports, but Kespa vs eSF has become like conference versus conference. Usually you root for your conference in inter-conference match ups, even if you usually think of that team as a rival.

the SEC conference cheering is so stupid. it's just fans from the schools that can't win anything trying to act relevant >.>
I assume that's what you're referring to

and even with that, though, you have other things like strength of schedule and the rankings to take into account. if your conference is perceived as strong you get better preseason rankings etc. none of that applies to this so it's pointless


Then how's a soccer comparison? In Champions League, you generally want your country's teams to do well because it makes your league seem stronger.

Sure there may be other motives (strength of schedule, champions league spots in future, etc) but that doesn't mean identifying with one group/league/conference is stupid or irrational. It happens in almost every other competitive sport. Think about if UFC champion was paired off against the Pride champion in MMA (when it was still around). exactly. Fans of each promotion would be cheering for their own champion.

Hardly pointless. It's called being a fan.

I mean I guess there's no real point in debating it because we already have our minds made up how we view it. To me I see it like this hypothetical situation. Let's say I'm a Braves fan in baseball. Why should I care if the Giants beat the Angels or not? Or in another situation. Should a Yankees fan be cheering for the Red Sox to win because GO AMERICAN LEAGUE! It just doesn't seem right to cheer for your rival. I'd rather see them lose regardless of who they are playing.That's just my take on it but I guess it's just a personal preference.


Maybe you don't care, that doesn't mean others don't. Actually I've seen quite a lot of baseball fans who care about the ASG and interleague records because they want to feel like their league is stronger.

As for your Yankees/Red Sox example, they might not cheer for them but that doesn't mean they wouldn't look at the Red Sox beating NL teams and say "getting beat by Boston, L0L0L NL sux".

At least, this was my experience from when I used to frequent the ESPN.com MLB forums. Take it for what it's worth. I think whether you're talking about SC2 or baseball, the "average" fan doesn't care about these things but there will always be some people who do.

Btw I think you can detect fairly consistently which "faction" is a poster from by just looking at the way he capitalizes "eSF" and "KeSPA".
If he's a KeSPA guy, he will write correctly "KeSPA" and all caps "ESF" or something.
If he's an eSF guy, he will write correctly "eSF" and just do whatever with Kespa.

I write "Kespa" and "eSF", haha.

Ugh, Ret is so pathetic. Not like any Terran nerfs would help him anyways as ZvP and ZvZ he would still get owned


Mind you the race distribution is 6 Zerg, 6 Terran, and 2 Protoss. Protoss is such a random race

Flash! I wish I didn't sleep through a couple of his games because of the godawful late-night broadcast hours and the extreme comfort of my bed, but he looked exquisite from what I've seen.

I'm really sad that Maru didn't make it through considering how cool it was to see him mech in the first series. With bio play so prevalent nowadays, I really want to see more mech from time to time.

KeSPA vs eSF already bores me because recent games have proven that KeSPA beats the shit out of eSF.

And I bet any eSF players who will remain in the quarterfinal will be picked up by a KeSPA team (hello big salary) as soon as possible.

Bye eSF fanboys, better pick a KeSPA team to cheer on.

This.... as it is now, the good zergs are doing well, the people that turtle until BL/infestor are getting destroyed. Fine by me.

Exactly, plus Life and Leenock's group hasn't even played yet, so the Zerg count may grow

Name one Zerg that didn't win most of his games with BL/Infestor. Hell, name a unit composition that actually could win ZvP in WoL that was not BL/Infestor. Saying that "the people that turtle until BL/infestor are getting destroyed" would mean that no Zerg does well now. And that's not true. By far not.

Yeah because Yoda, Gumiho, Symbol, Taeja, and LosirA didn't recently just beat Kespa players. Your standard for "proof" that Kespa beats the shit out of ESF is rather strange.

Why is this ESF and KESPA argument still going on? There are bad players, good players and S class players in both organizations... KESPA catched ESF players last year skillwise, but neither of them dominates others.

Woo, rational people!

It's too early to say. If the current trend continues GSL could wery well be ~90% KeSPA in a few months (even without buyouts). It's nearly 50/50 atm and I just don't see it staying that way for long. It's not like at this point we have reached some magical balance between both groups. One group will eventually emerge as the more dominant one and I doubt it will be eSF.
