MLG Dota 2 LAN. On one hand I want them to do well with it because it'll be good for the scene, but on the other hand, I don't think MLG have what it takes to please the Dota community.

I think it's funny that people who have never achieved ANYTHING AT ALL at any point in SC2 and will almost certainly never do insult a former professional player, regardless of how good he was.
Maybe Theognis is nothing compared to Mvp, but you are even less than that compared to him.

Twitter is bullshit and people should have abandoned that already its 2013. I have never had a better feeling about a SC2 pro or personality from a Tweet. Have you? They always come off as whiny bitches to me. TotalBiscuit meant well but his tweets really just stirred up the beesnest. =/ "If there isn't a SC2 at this event, the scene is DEAD and I retire!"
[...]
It's not like he has to maintain his youtube-channel and every time he's gone to an event to cast was actually a loss of money for him. Now, without MLG 'gone' (if this were the end of SC2 at MLG and not just one event) there would be nothing for him to cast in the US, where he lives, that includes a big live audience.
And regarding 'the scene is DEAD': He never said that, but the opinion, that the NA scene is dying isn't something he mentioned for the first time today.
Would you really disagree with this,
@Totalbiscuit
Looks like I moved to the wrong country if I want to continue live casting
now that IPL and MLG (again nothing is sure yet) are gone and NASL has their hands full with WCS?

He just asked who he was? How the fuck is that an insult?

Why? I'm just calling out a bunch of nobodies who think they're so edgy and cool for insulting a former pro player just because he wasn't exactly cream of the crop. It's all factual evidence, Theognis was a pro and has played and beaten pros (has a 45% career winrate over 200+ games FYI). None of these people have done anything. They don't have any right to play the "oh who are you? hueheuehu" card.
Good day

Say you meet someone famous, and then you ask who they are, it could be perceived as an insult.
Similar idea.

This is incredibly dissappointing, SC2 has become so bad.

Doesn't mean it has to be an insult. There are plenty of famous actors who I wouldn't recognize and those ppl are alot more famous that your starcraft superstar on teamliquid.

Keyword is persevered. Just because you don't play a sport doesn't mean you're not entitled to an opinion on a player's performance.

he literally hasn't achieved anything in sc2 ... hardly professional, just because you get a team on your tag doesn't actually mean you are pro. So hes just another amateur.. like all of us.

Woah woah, I said similar idea and the key word there was perceived. A progamer btw will be far more known on TL compared to many actors due to the progamers being more relevant to the people here. (and I never said he was famous)

But this wasn't an opinion on a player's performance. They were calling Theognis out on being irrelevant and unknown while they themselves are infinitely more irrelevant and unknown compared to him. You know, not to mention that in and of itself it's kind of a dick move.

Sure, let me know when you get a winrate of 45% playing in tournaments against pro players for 3 years.
Also I'm pretty sure being signed on a pro team and competing in major events qualifies you as a pro.

Cool story bro, but I have not insulted him. Its a simple fact that there are a ton of players that are more known than him and if this guy does not know him its not like he missed one of the best players out there.

yo shut the fuck up. you don't know shit.

There's been a fair bit of speculation on the 'NA e-Sports scene' over the last while with the dynamic changes over at WCS NA, FXONA's disbanding, other teams struggling, Totalbiscuit's potential withdrawal from SC2, retiring players and a larger umbrella issue of finding time for major events on top of a year-long WCS production schedule. Maybe I'm missing some points or exaggerating others, I'm not 100% in on the details of the scene, but it seems to me that following this announcement is a very ripe opportunity for an up-and-coming tournament organizer to materialize and make a name for themselves.
I wouldn't mind seeing something new jump out onto the top of the scene, it'd be nice.

Well lets be clear, he has does better than the majority of people on this site. He wouldn't be on Meta with Artosis if he was a scrub.
