You just dont say stuff like that - cancer is something that just should not be joked around with.

Firecake is not pro, he does math studies or something.

Frankly i wouldn't care as long as his skills would be the same.
I can understand firecake way of speaking, not everyone can keep their rage in and sometimes you have to let it out...
We all know that when we let it out we say retarded things, but that's who we are.
I will not juge firecake for being over expressive and i think its wrong to.

I mean you can not agree or dislike it but being such asses is just basically TL getting on the same foot as him.
(So in a way TL insulting themselves KEK )

wow i had no idea he was so BM. all i remember seeing from Firecake is neverending swarmhost games. this behavior is really childish and uncalled for, he does not deserve to be on a pro-team. "I hope you get cancer" is worse than anything Idra has ever said.

Why is that like a go to thing? Naniwa, Idra, and Firecake all used it. Presumably others have as well?

Cancer is pretty awful so if you want to be awful that's an easy way to do it ! Personally I'm content with "I hope you step on a lego."

Disgusting. You can overcome cancer but once you step on a LEGO you have stepped on a LEGO. You can't undo that.

WOW

All that bashing only for some BM, i'm extremely disappointing in what i see from TL posters.
Everyone had his own mindset, his maybe more expressive than other but being dicks like you are all being will not solve anything, he's still a player that made it to premier with decent results.

I dont get it, he wasnt bm under the vega's tag. From my point of view Vega betrayed him when they admited this was his barcode. The obvious reasons are more likely to be the fact he is by far the best player of his team and he'll probably moves for a better team, or at least, a better salary.

So FireCake went from FireCake to Fired Cake...

You can't fire a player for playing swarm host and winning with it. It is like banning a tennis player from playing on the baseline, refusing to go on the net. The blame for boring swarm host games (from the view of the audience) does not lie with the players, but with the game designers. So, obviously, my take of this is that there are other obvious reasons behind this. Different level of mind games, eh?

It's pretty bad what he said don't get me wrong, but if every team kicked player for being BM on ladder, every player would be team less.

Even Ret who is supposed to be one of the nicest players admit that he bm's on smurf account, imagine what others do then.

It ammuses me that you're saying its ok to wish someone a cancer and tell his mom's ugly.

bms like "ez race", "noob", "luck", "fuck you" are pretty ok if person is upset. But there are boundaries. Firecake definitely got overboard. I'm rager myself but I would never say such things he said. Even to my worst enemies irl.

If you can't control you're anger, you're acting like a silly immature child. I'm OK with them getting "fucked over" although in reality they are only doing it to themselves.

Don't expect to be on a team if you cant' control your anger.

This kind of behavior is not accepted in other sports. Why is it okay for eSports. Makes players look like a bunch of whiny children.

Ok, so here is a game conduct manual for professionals:

• When losing a game, type gg and leave.
  

Alternatively

• When losing a game to a cheesy tactic, type gc and leave.
  

If there is a need to rage, step inside a soundproof wardrobe*, close the door and shout until you feel better. If this happens every so often, deploy a teddy bear in the wardrobe for extended hugging sessions.


*You will have to build this one before you start laddering

"Firecake leaves VegaSquadron".
On a mutual agreement I think. VegaSquadron making it sound like they fired him is a little lame I think, especially when he has been by far the best player in the team during the past 6 months, basically giving the team a reason to exist on the european scene.

The guy is a total kid on ladder but he is very mannered offline or on broadcasted online tournaments.
Btw did you know that he is the one of the few (if not the only one) european challengers who owns a master's degree ?
I hope he'll change his behaviour on ladder and that he'll find a good team nonetheless !

In fact Firecake is a victim, and hopefully he finds something else to do that brings him more peace of mind.

I did, and it made me feel way better than being a progamer. Progaming can give you things that are exceptional, like traveling to tournaments, meeting your friends from around the world and being close to so many people sharing your passion and dreams. On the other hand, the everyday life is just something a human being is not built to handle without frequent breakdowns.

Wow Cloud, this sounds a little like a apology for some of the "lesser appropriate" behavior you showed in the past. It would be cool to see you write a blog about this, one in which you only look in the mirror and not accuse others of wrongdoings. I'm not being sarcastic.

I believe the general mentality of being super sensitive about everything, getting offended over petty insults and condemning whoever shows what everybody think is "unappropriate" behaviour is retarded and immature. I don't think anyone should apologize publicly or to the community for offenses that have been made privately. But people who have no part in it want to feel like they belong to the big show so they resort to condemning on forums, expressing opinions on things they partially know and being judgemental as fuck.

while i was never a progamer, just from imagining myself in the role of one i think this is probably true for a lot of people and i'm almost certain it would be true for me (and in fact it is part of why i made the decision not to even really try to become one when i essentially had the chance). the interesting question then is: why do people choose to become progamers? not only is it an "extremely unhealthy lifestyle", as you said, but it also doesn't pay well unless you're at the very top, you're not really "famous" and it is a very unstable business. obviously in a way i'm grateful that there are people that choose to do it (since i love watching them) but at the same time i kinda feel for them since clearly a lot of people are not happy with their decision in the long run.
