What's so hard to understand about that? On July 05 2012 01:00 Assirra wrote: While that is true it is totally uncalled for and the interviewer never mentioned , he just flapped it out. Yeah, god forbid pros answer with something more than a yes or a no... Do you have to look for drama to be happy? Take the answer for what it is. | ||

I think it would be meaningful if Nestea makes it in first place and faces me too. If I beat Nestea again this time, he won’t have any excuses. make this happen! it will increase viewer count by a lot and i love juicy drama i don't think it's possible though since DRG is beast | ||

And from what i've heard about anti-patriotism in Sweden, it seems like you guys took it way too far, correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't it forbidden to wear/show the Swedish flag, even during your national holiday? (not sure if it's illegal or just very frowned upon). | ||

F*ck feelings, if you're the best at something and you know it there's no shame in clearly saying it! Fake modesty is just another shitty concept people try to hide behind stuffs like humility ... saying that one should be humble. It's not a lack of humility to say such things! It's not like he was taunting anyone or rubbing someone's face in what he's saying. EDIT: all I say here is of course meant in a competitive environment like eSport is | ||

I think we as a nation have gone to far in terms of political correctness, modesty and anti-invidualism. | ||

Just think it's a superior ideology, it's got nothing to do about being Swedish of course. ...and I've no idea where you heard it was illegal to raise flags, that's just silly. Most people don't really care if they're there or not, but there's nothing wrong with doing it. Yes, some frown upon it, but generally people are pretty indifferent about it. | ||

You think FruitDealer is good? He won GSL back in the days, but one must keep in mind that the opponents he beat were worse than masters level in NA right now. I'm aware that this is a speculation but people really sucked back then as the game was so young. I love Jinro and I'm Swedish as well but Jinro reaching ro4 back then is less of an achievement than winning a weekly cup nowadays. People are simply so much better now and sucked so bad back then. | ||

For that reason I'd call it bullshit to try and claim that Jinros accomplishments were "easier". Also no one ever said he had to fake humility, you don't have to fake humility. I don't think anyone would give a shit too much if he'd said "I think this is my biggest achievement" or "The biggest foreign achievement". However he says "The fact that Jinro is no longer in code S is proof of that" talking about his achievement being greater. There's absolutely no reason to reference Jinro at all while expressing the sentiment that he thinks his achievement is the best. Also it's strange to say something like that when he was seeded into code S and everytime Jinro was offered a seed to any GSL league he declined it because he thought he didn't deserve to get in like that. Edit: Actually I forgot to mention but leveller who posted under me is correct , stuff can get lost in translation so it could be absolutely nothing. | ||

If the others sucked shouldn't have he sucked just as equally too? | ||
