They are both great players, but Polt is going to crush Taeja.
3-1 or 3-0.

Very few holes in Polt's play. He is quite intelligent and has great control.

I am playing Protoss and i find it offensive to not have a Protoss player in semis. Fire all NASL staff.

I don't wanna read through the whole thread what happened?


terry called a black man black


Well he was clearly uncomfortable, and I would be too.

Being called out for who I am isn't what I would want to do there as a SC2 fan. Like that doesn't help grow the scene and it doesn't help make the minority SC2 fans go to other events.


And you think NASL making such a big fuss over it (much bigger than the community itself) makes him feel more comfortable?

I always laugh my fucking ass off when you whiteknights come in and pretend to know what that person was thinking... because most of the time they were probably amused and you're making it to be a much bigger issue than it was or should have been, in trying to "defend" them.


I didn't want to get into this but since you resort to name-calling I guess I will share my view.

Yes, what Terry did was unprofessional at a SC2 event. NASL didn't over publicize the issue, they simply made a twitter post apologizing to those who were offended and made sure the event went on to please those.

Terry wasn't racist, he was simply trying to be funny, but he was doing it at the expense of another person's event experience, and it was as wrong as if he had made severe fun of the guy with the political science degree.

It's not that Terry's racist, it's he made someone feel uncomfortable. And the way he did would make other people feel uncomfortable going to that event.

I'm not a white-knight for feeling bad for that guy who came all the way from the Virgin Islands to feel super awkward in front of Terry and 40k people. And it wasn't just awkward like awkward conversations, it was awkward because Terry was saying "Hey look at how weird this is! A black guy!"

Your point that NASL then made a bigger fuss out of it, but they did a response to it that said they didn't agree with it. They addressed the problem in the right way. It's ok to make a bigger fuss and dramaticize an issue(even though they really didn't at all, just twitter post and replacing Terry), if you're addressing it in the way to make a statement on the issue.

So don't generalize people, MasterofPuppets and realize we all have opinions, some of which others disagree with, and NASL as a premier SC2 organization is trying to appease everyone despite your philosophical views.


But you're implying he *WAS* feeling awkward which in and of itself is ridiculous because you can't possibly know that.

You're implying just because you feel like this was racist/inappropriate etc, the guy did so as well and that's the irony that stings the most.


Uh, he was clearly uncomfortable.
Re-watch it.

That is the worst part to argue over.

But it wasn't that big of a deal, it's over now. Let's watch the games.

Nope. I think people like you are absolutely pathetic because you're pretending to know how that person was feeling. You are making this to be a MUCH bigger thing than it really was, thereby ironically perpetuating the very thing you're pretending to be defending.

Go away.


Let me guess, you're a white male. Am I right? I don't know what that person was feeling. But I sure know what I felt, and I'm pissed.


Lol who cares if he is white and or a male? I am a brown male and I wouldn't care if that happened to me.

it doesnt have anything to do with how the person was feeling, it was terrys attempt to define the limits of community by identifying the outsider, something deviating from the norm. the implicit assumption is "everybody in here looks and dresses a certain way but i found someone who is different, lets all look at this person." the identification of us the other. its a computer game, its not supposed to be about skin color which why bringing it up made it so god damn awkward and wrong.

Can we all just agree that in America race is a really sensitive issue, and that while you personally may have no problem with what Terry said, other people clearly do and if those people complain NASL will be in financial trouble?

Every time there's a race issue on here it's the same old debate where people argue over whether or not the remark was offensive, rather than facing the fact that making comments like that in the current global/US (mostly US) society will likely get you in trouble and it isn't that hard to avoid making said comments.

That being said, I think suspending Terry/fining him or something less extreme would have sufficed.

As I said, the way their handling this is bringing more unnecessary attention this than it needed.

You can blame Terry for lack of tact in the heat of the moment, but shit look at NASL.

lol you can't be sued for making a marginally offensive comment in the US. hate speech is very much legally protected here, whether or not you think that's right is a different matter but it is the case.
