Pretty much this, and MC's explanation. he was playing mindgames, he made a read. If White-Ra is that predictable, then I'm sorry but he deserved to lose...if MC can make the read and the correct (even if "cheesy" and "not entertaining") then he deserved the win, even if he did knock out your favorite player.

State of the Game covered this in their most recent podcast. iNcontroL said, in agreement with everyone else, that they would play any style to win when there is money on the line. You have to be a fucking idiot not to.

To the fans, this is obviously going to make them feel cheated. However, so few fans take the time to put themselves in the shoes of the player. They also don't consider the gravity of the situation. As echoed so many times in this thread already, $15000 was on the line - you're a moron if you're not playing to win. oGsMC did what it took to win the tournament.

Fans are always going to be jilted when they see their favorite players get cheesed. It's not very fun to watch and they gain nothing out of it. But the players aren't cheating, so people really need to shut the hell up.

If MC had won that game because was better player, then he wouldn't feel the need for the rebuttle. White-Ra is clearly the best protoss in the world right now.

It was still a great series, I think people just wanted to see WhiteRa dethrone the God-Protoss which is understandable. But at the highest level (which both WhiteRa and MC are) all strategies should be considered at all times. I feel bad that he is getting hard BM.....

Pretty much this, it sucks that the very minority voicing complains on how he won the tournament made him actually respond to it. I hope he knows now, or eventually that it's just the idiots.

Big deal? White-Ra deserved to lose. He played greedily every game, going up to near 30 probes against Mc's 20.

I think his point is that the majority of people crying seem to be doing it because of their excessive fanboyism for a player.

But some people don't want to see White-Ra lose. So fanboys start bashing MC and blindly ignore the fact that White-Ra was playing greedily every game.

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.


except when Jaedong 4 pools,

we don't see a swarm of foreigners spouting out that Jaedong has no skill and cheese is the only way Jaedong can win.

are you implying MC is not supposed to get hurt? we've known that he's been trying to connect to his foreign fans more and many progamers (JD incl.) derive a lot of social support and confidence from their fans. perhaps not twittering about this would have been more professional but don't write as if you know what it feels like to have a sizeable foreign community de-legitimizing your talent and skills to cheese.

if you actually had something you cared about (not that i'm saying you do) and actually spent so much effort and time to finally achieve something worth being proud about, but the public ascribes your achievement to random chance and no talent/skill whatsoever, yeah i'm sure you won't feel too bad.....right

on another note, MC should use this as motivation to get even better. the only way to shut up foreign trolls is to continue beating foreigners for an extended period of time so that eventually, even the foreign trolls will have no choice but to shut the fuck up.

The Korean MC used when he said Jinro 'got cheated'(사기) definitely means he got conned/swindled....

I hope people don't misunderstand what he meant there

What do people expect MC to do? Make an apology for playing to win $15,000?

Understandably, people like White-Ra and want him to win, or see a repeat of the GSL World Champion, but this is a tournament, these are PRO-GAMERS playing to WIN, not to entertain.

It would have been nice to see Jinro go much further though, seeing at it was his home turf.

When are people going to stop giving pro players flak for cheesing. There is money on the line folks. Just because your favorite player lost doesn't mean you have the right to call the guy that won a bad person.
