For some reason, I just love the " The Man in the Machine " expression for Innovation.

So you aren't a fan of him anymore because he doesn't win everything now?

well it's not only that he doesn't win. he loses. badly.

but the answer to your question is "yes".


well fans like you aren't really missed.

like it would change anything.
still waiting for the "not a real fan"-card.


Being a fan of a player, to me, is different from just being impressed by a player when he wins


well it's just classical banwagoning, and those ppl are everywhere. Just gloryseekers who can't realize what's great about a player beyond winning.
Zest fanboy.

But isn't that just semantics? having a positive attitude towards, rooting for, liking, wanting him to win when he plays. where do you draw the line?
if anybody feels better he/she can easily replace "fan" with "liked" and be happy.
Countdown to victory: 1 200!

you don't appreciate inno, you appreciate players who win in a dominating fashion, good thing for you you can follow the dear train now. but considering how most ppl are unable to appreciate other skills from inno than is micro/macro it's not exactly surprising.

Innovation is the single most invincible SC2 player I've ever seen when he's playing well. I feel like if he hits form, he will destroy anyone. And I really hope he hits top form. Innovation FTW. Either him or MMA winning would be awesome.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.
