There's a few requirements (balance whining, WCS bashing, foreigner shaming, claims that you know the game better than the players), but they are very easy to meet without even knowing them.

Also, plebs will never ever actually include any ingame analysis before concluding that he just lost cus he choked.

Just easier to follow the simplistic narrative while having no idea what you are talking about.

And here we have an example of a person who doesn't recognize choking.


Sc2 is not like a game like Counter Strike where your mental stale and and confidence are extremely important to make sure you are gonna hit instant flick shots.

In Sc2, your EAPM and mouseprecision is very constant regardless of circumstances.

The only thing that can really change is if you decide to go for some stupid builds/react in stupid ways that you usually wouldn't do. But when calling out someone for choking must be able to specify where the choking can be seen. Like which mistake/error was very unusual for the player?

Otherwise it's just lazy "analysis" (read: not analysis. Just explantion from people who cannot actually analyze games).

I mean haven't we been saying for years to be good just be as good as the best player? Can't believe more people don't just do that.

I'm lacking only in the foreign shaming department, but I can make up for that with caster bashing

I'm suprised apollo did this event seeing as 2 koreans somehow managed to slip through security.
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Sc2 pro games are very rarely lost because of choking. It's not like a game like Counter Strike where your mental stale and and confidence are extremely important to make sure you are gonna hit instant flick shots.

No in Sc2, your EAPM and mouseprecision is very constant regardless of circumstances.

The only thing that can really change is if you decide to go for some stupid builds/react in stupid ways that you usually wouldn't do. But anyway calling out someone for choking must be able to specify whe choking can be seen.

Otherwise it's just lazy "analysis" (read: not analysis. Just explantion from people who cannot actually analyze games).


Mental state is all important. It's the difference between being Mvp and soO/MKP or July and Best.

July said at the top level what differentiated champions and the other elites was mental strength. Something Stork, oov, Flash, Jaedong, Mvp and others have all agreed on.

If anything choking is more real in SC2 than CS:GO because there you use muscle memory to do flickshots that you are talking about and if you play a little bit slower or your precision is off then you're just screwed in SC2. Also you play 30 rounds in CS:GO and you have a lot of free time which doesn't really happen in sc2
