But from what I learnt about him in the past year from his games, his interviews and his documentary. I have gain enough respect for this man to say: he can lose the next 100 games on television, but he is still the motherfucking Emperor of Starcraft. This man stands for something greater than just the game itself, any attempt to insult him will be idiotic. | ||

I doubt something like that would ever happen again. Not that they got lucky or anything that match, Alicia obviously played amazingly, but especially with PvZ favoring Zergs more and more recently, the only person who could take down IM's trifecta of players is MMA, and he wouldn't take out all 3 of them. Except for Ganzi, he could beat Mvp maybe. And in Individual results they don't even compare. But SlayerS is the 2nd best SC2 team :D Uhuh? Because IM will beat slayers in an imaginary situation that happened inside your brain; which to you proves their skill more than a FINAL MATCH that ALREADY HAPPENED in real life. That's why slayers is not as good as IM? Okay..... | ||

And journalists are vultures, especially tabloid ones. He's probably happy he got a response out of SlayersJessica. It just means more interest in his article. You read anything these days and it has to be hyper sensationlized to sell. People are so used to it, they don't even find it abnormal. They just think it's a journalist being a journalist when he delves into hyperbole. | ||

It just seemed like he pretty much said that Boxer looked like he may be the first to do well in both sc1 and sc2, but didn't do well recently against asd. He quickly summerized the games and explained why Boxer lost. I really don't see why this article is so bad. I could definitely understand if it said something like "Many of us knew Boxer didn't have the potential to play well" or just blatantly insulted him... but it seemed like a relatively average article... unless you were expecting them to praise him even as he lost. What am I missing here? From the tone of the articles it seems like the reporter is trying to put the final nails in the coffin for Boxer's career. Do you see them writing any articles about other players who got knocked out from Code A? It seems to me like the reporter is subtly 'shaming' Boxer. I could be wrong, of course, as I am reading the translation but it feels like a very negative article. Also, notice that the article seems to omit Boxer's success in the foreign scene and the success of his team. | ||

<3 BoxeR and I hope he returns to fighting form and code A once again. This Article is harsh and mentions nothing about his ailment making it seem like it was all just his own fault. I'm with Jessica in that it was bs, and Lim Yo-Hwan shall have my support forever. FIGHTING! | ||

Besides I'm sure this isn't the first article to coin the downfall of BoxeR. There probably were a lot of articles back in BW named "Emperor overthrown" or "Fall of the dynasty" blah blah. | ||

In truth, his play is at best average and his time in the sun is over. Reporters have the right to free speech and to express their views. In my opinion, Boxer deserves to be criticised for his poor play. If you don't know why he gets so much attention, you should maybe google his name..... He is a legend in all sense of the word in the world of Starcraft. He redefined the way the game was played, won tons of championships, and he is an incredibly humble and nice person. | ||
