This post should be referred to whenever someone asks a question about this topic. The proof is in all the old LR threads(mostly gsl code a in late 2012/early/mid 2013) It was almost as annoying as the stephano's discussions whenever he got eliminated from a tournament. the worst part was when a kespa player would lose they would just say "they need more time to learn the game, give them another 6 months/year/decade/century...." jetlag was my favorite. He is saving builds for PL.
Kespa players don't care about GSL, they only care about Proleague and OSL because their sponsors are represented in those tournaments.

Good post, thanks for explaining! That sounds like it was fucking annoying back then.
yeah but its as hell annoying now from the opposite direction. I for one get really annoyed by this kespa hate. It is like a twitch chat everytime a kespa player loses. The community has split in half and for no good reason.
