Major would've been the best player there if you had him but you picked desRow instead? :s

I dont ladder on my main account, only play tournies on it ^^. I have a beautiful barcode account that I ladder on The original owner of the kami account was a silver league player that still plays game on it.


I'll never understand why no names (no offense!) make a barcode account. I can understand korean pro's or pro's in general like illusion/idra/etc but will never understand why you would. If anything that hurts your exposure as a player (let's say you are a really good up and comer nobodies going to know until you do well in a big tournament, illusion was seen as an up and comber even before he did very well at IPL4 for example).

Why do people hate other people that have barcode accounts? Everybody I play on ladder seems to hate me, even before they lose, because I play on a barcode account. Lets just put it this way, if I did become a known player in the community, I would hate to know that everyone knows how I play. I dont play "standard" because it seems like "standard" play is no rush 10 minute games. So yeah, thats my excuse for having a hated barcode account.


LOL sounds like code for cheese/all in every game to me.

I kind of agree what people say about giving a no name a chance in the house but can't really blame them for taking more well known players. They KNOW what they're getting with these players - not so with some randomer that has only ever laddered. Gl

Its not like no name players have no chance to get in this house. They could have paid like the other less kown players that were already there.
To get it for free, you naturally have to bring something more with you than the average player.

Why so much hate on Desrow, I don't really know him but the few I see, he's not bad, really nice and very very motivated. What's the problem with him guys ?

Maybe TitaN, rather than Slavik for instance, was chosen because of LiveZerg arrival...

No terran? That's a bummer, but congratulations to the winners even though this sounded like something that was not for established pro's(TitaN small exception, he's just pro)

Hope to join you one day anyways!

DesRow can be kind of an ass sometimes. Part of the community hate him for the small amounts of drama he's raised but his drive and commitment to becoming a better player is his greatest strength.
Still, gonna be interesting to see what MoW does to him that Korea did not.

A lot of the "hate" (I wouldn't really call it hate, most of the people who have commented on this have been quite reasonable and fair) is because Desrow isn't really "there" yet, especially when you compare him with Ret, Titan, and Slavik (who I guess he won over).

There's also some hate I assume because he got in over Major, except I read earlier in the thread that he really didn't, and Major just declined because he didn't wanna buy his own passage to Warsaw? If that's not the case, I don't know why he didn't get in, foreign Terrans are in short supply.

Ah no terran :/ was hoping for MajOr.
Oh well GL to Ret, TitaN and desRow and hope they show a big improvement in the next couple of months
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

I'm happy for desRow. He has lived in Korea and now gets an opportunity to stay in Poland for a while. Quite an adventurous year it has been for him.

DesRow flew out to coach him hardcore for a week, for an agreed upon amount of money.

They streamed the whole thing and that week MaximusBlack made a significant amount more money from his stream than he would have normally.

DesRow didn't think anything was wrong with this and went back home, apparently someone persuaded him that since he was a major part of his extra revenue, he should ask for a larger cut.

DesRow did so, and ACCORDING TO DESROW, MB flew off the handle at him and started shouting about all sorts of shit. Nobody knew anything about this until on reddit, MB posted a comment referring to some kind of dispute with DesRow nobody knew about. DesRow clarified here on TL.

Personally, I think its a lot of fuss over nothing. DesRow agreed to terms and got paid, he didn't have a right to ask for more money, but on the same token if MB really did get into a slanging match with him thats pretty terrible too. If it happened. Which we have no proof of other than DesRow's word.

I elected to just ignore the whole affair, it seems like some stupid shit to bring into the public domain and it means nothing to either player as far as their play or work for the community streaming goes.

I think accepting Liquid'Ret is the best thing MoW could do.

The amount of extra exposure and credibility they gain from Ret going to train there would be worth a great deal to them, not to mention his pure skill, which will allow the others in the house to practice against a great zerg.
