I linked MC to this thread and said that a user from TL translated his tweet. Hopefully he'll see the comments here and get the gist of it and understand that we are backing him up ^^

Sucks that anyone would BM him. He did what he knew would work. That's how you win.

What I'm most concerned about is that the shortsighted haters MC is speaking to (who seem to be curiously absent from this thread thus far) are being represented as the attitude of the entire Western community.

I hope he realizes that any true Starcraft fan understands what went down. It's rather sad that sheer ignorance of the strategic mindset resulted in MC having to defend his playstyle.

There was no controversy.
MC won over White-ra and the fans reacted poorly for absolutely no reason.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Is he seriously butthurt about a little fanboyism, getting some dirt thrown in his direction after a series like that? Really? MC? Someone give the guy a hug.

Ill be sure to send a napkin and a damp towel for Jaedong next time he 4pools and wins with it. Poor guy might need therapy after all the internet whining? I had no idea being a progamer was such a chore at times.

Don't like MC anymore because of this tweet, not because of him explaining himself but because of his comments about can't wait to get back to his home country and Jinro getting cheated. Really just comes off douchey.

Personally, I love when a player is punished for playing greedily. For the same reasons, I don't have a problem with cheeses every once in a while. I mean, if you rely on that to win I won't respect you as a progamer, but MC has proved he is one of the best, if not the best, players in the world. Keeping people honest is no crime in my book.


This is the truth. White-Ra had 28 probes vs MC's 20. Playing greedy is great if you can live, but if you can't, then you need to back off the probe production. White-Ra was greedy and got punished. He got what he deserved.

Great response by MC. He was completely in the right doing what he did and seeing this only reconfirms and enhances that view point.

Sad that he even felt it necessary to make a response. The hate must have been overflowing.

uh what.. getting stuck on a delayed flight sucks. He can't wait for his flight so he can get back home. That was not him saying other countries suck at all. He has said multiple times how he loved sweden. How is that douchy.

And Jinro getting cheated was not him getting cheated out of the tourney by white-ra. Someone translated earlier that Jinro got ripped off. Probably a separate real life incident.

It's more than a bit of fanboyism, don't downplay it and honestly, if you're being discredited of all your career achievements purely because there are a lot of short-sighted people (should have read the LR DH topic), you'd have reacted like him.

Until you are in his shoes, you can't be antagonizing towards his words that are only meant to remedy and explain a situation that doesn't need any explanation.

Thanks.

Wow, he just explained his reasoning.

People on TL are so extreme. He mentioned that Jinro got scammed by somebody and that he's excited to go back to Korea and you don't like him anymore? Relax a little.

Sometimes I can imagine some crazy TL poster reading a twitter of a progamer, like Nada's, and seeing a tweet like the "hi haypro" tweet from a few weeks ago and suddenly turning blue in the face and running around their room tearing down the nada posters in a fit of tears. It's just insanity here sometimes.

I don't know if it was a european or north american thing, but the fact ogsmc got enough crap to have to tweet about winning the way he did is embarassing for the foreigner community.

Not only is it embarassing it's such a scrubby mindset.

regardless of the gap of actual mechanical or strategic skill, the fact people complained shows koreans are just better mentally at the game as well.

I feel kind of embarassed for the whole non-Korean community that MC even had to hear about any shit like this. I love both White-Ra and MC and I'm sure White-ra would tell all the haters that stuff like that happens. MC took a risk and it worked out, if white-ra had scouted his main he would have won.

Idk if anyone realized, I'm sure whitera would have been able to fight it off given his good decision making or at least drag the game on longer, but

WhiteRa apparently didn't know the version he was playing on was cross position only. Therefore, he scouted at 13 instead of 9, and in the wrong direction too If he scouted at 9 he would have had much more time to react .

That's his fault though, he's played on both versions and it says numerous time what map is being played ;x

I don't think pros should acknowledge all the ranting from the trolls/fan boys. Its like throwing gasoline on a bonfire. It actually makes them look bad from a professional standpoint. Just keep playing, and keep winning.
