Sir, people like you are the reason I still enjoy playing on ladder. Keep it up. Everything else is hurting ESPORTS!

People make too much of a big deal out of this shit.
That's what I think about it.
According to a lot of people, this makes me very BM.

Recently I played a guy in a really close match and afterwards he was like
"gg, you are one of the best protoss players I've ever played"
which was weird because he won the game O_o

Out of curiosity, do you have criterion to consider something a "good game?" Like, do you not consider it good if you make a critical mistake or if your opponent completely stomps you?

I've said everything you pictured in the OP with the intention of BM'ing my opponent.

Then you played a guy who 111 all in'd across terminus and bitched about imbalance when it didn't work. Sounds like a fun day for you


I haven't been on the ladder much lately and in custom games people are a lot more polite since nothing is on the line (I assume). I can't tell you how many long and helpful conversations I've had with better and worse players because we were both extremely polite to each other in game.

I've recommended TL to about a dozen people in the last week

He doesn't lose against Protoss, clearly.

I tend not to BM much. I keep my thoughts to myself, so I guess it's "neutral" manners for me XD

I always try to be gm in ladder. I always gg at the end and sometimes when people say glhf I type back "may your hammer be mighty"
My folks were always on me to groom myself and wear underpants. What am I, the pope?

That's pretty legit. I need to come up with something epic like that too.

I send gg my opponents way for everything but the most blatant cheese, aka cannon rush. Maybe one day I will gg to that as well, but not until I figure out how the hell to properly counter it. Until then I am going to assume they are doing a build that is a free win in my league (Gold) and that they likely couldn't even counter themselves :D

Those are pretty nice, well-mannered exits.

I don't take BM (or a lack of a response during the game) too seriously though. That being said, I start every 1v1 with "gl hf ^^" and every team game with "gl hf fellas", and end every (lost) game with "gg" or "gg wp".

I don't go into a detailed explanation like you do, but it's pretty cool in my book. Keep it up!

I said something similar to a Terran a couple of months back, and I also won that game. I don't know if it's something similar, but in my case it was because I'd never played someone who dropped so much to counter my aggression and had such strong positioning as that guy did. I could have lost to him easily, and he forced my best from me and I still only just scraped through (If we played a best of 3 I wouldn't feel confident). I guess there are games, even if you win where you just know your opponent is better than you or at least damn good.

Maybe your opponent felt similarly I guess is the point of my rambling. Just because you lose, doesn't mean you played badly. If two people play perfectly, someone will still lose.

I like this kind of thing, it compliments your opponent and helps keep you from raging. It really does help keep your own anger level lower.

See, I don't think in the heat of the moment you can readily appraise your game as not being a good one... Even if you think you weren't playing your best, your opponent still was doing better and beat you. So gg to him. Just manner up and deal with it and get better. You don't deserve anything when you think you are better than your opponent, so I think a gg is standard, much like tipping in the USA.

lol if someone said to me "gg, awesome strat", i would definately bm "back", cause it sounds like he only executed some stupid strat but has no skill himself.

i'd prefer a simple gg, wp or something like that.
