This thread so full of win.

I'm sure both Ret and Grubby are thinking constantly about their respective E-sports pasts and who has the bigger e-sports e-peen. All the time. Constantly. Without interruption.

If you get a thread of a pro semi bashing ( even if it is jokingly) then there are always going to be people that react badly to it.

That said I didn't think this was funny. All things considered though, I have no idea about Grubby and Ret's actual relation to each other. Good friends can be dicks to each other and everyone including themselves will be okay with it, many people here don't know if they're good friends or not though. (including myself)
That's the 2nd time in a week I've seen someone sig a quote from this GD and I have never witnessed a sig quote happen in my TL history ever before. -Najda

I agree, as has been said, it was a great idea, with bad implementation. You can't defend it just because its 'british' humor. SC2 is an international sport, the community is going to have different tastes and find different things funny or not. You just gotta take the bad with the good and move on. That said, this and Grubby's thread has made 4 hours of my work day fly by, so im happy.

Also, GLHF to both Ret and Grubby, with you guys currently sitting at 6-5 in terms of matches, we could potentially get a rivalry out of this or somebody should set up a showmatch for fun

Besides the hilarity of the post itself i think the people who are actually genuinely upset or angry over this is just as much win.

We only know you were joking Ret, we're just bad overreactors (myself included). I dont think anybody thinks it wasn't in good fun, it just seemed that way because of the timing and with what Demuslim said on stream. Apart from your choice of certain words it had some nice funny points. A few more attempts and you could be a good parody/troll writer. As others said, great idea, slightly bad attempt. Sall Good. You've been on fire recently. GL in the upcoming tournies (as long as you don't knock out any of my fav protoss ok?)


Oh, did you now?

Let us look at your comment earlier:

Why do so many people think this is fucking funny. Is it the cool thing now to bash on another progamer's thread about helping somebody out. I don't care if you don't think the mentor-ship that Grubby is doing is going to work, trolling him about it is useless and doesn't mean much.

Ret vs Grubby is currently 6-5. So yea, Ret your so baller for smashing Grubby LOL.

Grubby is a God, while you will never ever achieve the things he has in his life. I actually used to like you Ret, just felt that you needed somebody to mentor you, because you make the same exact mistakes now as you did 6 months ago, which is ironic because you make fun of a programer that has done litterally 3x as much as you for trying to help someone out. Maybe you should ask if Grubby can give you some tips? Because while your skill is stagnating Grubby is better every single day. I just lost the little respect I did have for you


Seems to me like you were apalled that people thought it was funny. But doing an 180 degree turn is of course not very surprising.

Not cool Ret, not cool.

What would be cool though would be if you made another troll post mocking Idra and his bming, quitting nature.
Grubby is too much of a nice guy to give a comeback. So pls troll Idra.

I was very upset about how funny people thought it was and overreacted as my first post, and have said that more than once. That post wasn't really all about ret, it was more about how every comment after seemed to deem Ret some funny troll when in regards this is the worst troll attempt ive ever seen and very disrespectful. Read my last 15 posts, non of them are bashing anybody. As ive said, i overreacted on my first post, but have since said quite a bit more than that. Im not doing a 180 at all, i was trying to be nice to Ret when I replied to him, is that bad?
As i said, my thoughts haven't changed:
*Ret/Demuslim should give Grubby the respect he deserves, they are no where near his level. He is an iconic figure of Esports while they are just good players.
*This was a good troll attempt, but bad implementation.
Those 2 points sums up my thought on this thread. Nazgul said it best




edit: @Forikorder, that would be a good idea, but PP vs TZ would end up with TZ crushing i believe. Mebe do a KOTH with all 4. Whoever wins 3 games in a row first gets master status?
