Add the fact he became a real monster in ZvP match up. The bilan is : Lilbow sacrified a 20% chance to go to blizzcon, get extra 2500$ and the chance to encounter INnoVation. As a french people i'm not upset at all. I knew it was going to be this way and that was the right decision. And keep in mind that skipping the LOTV beta would have stomp any chance for him to get a descent rank in WCS next year. Lilbow is the kind who needs to train hard to take it over, and he decided to not kill his career at the begin of LOTV. I find it wise. The scenario where he trains hard is basically that : he loose 2-3 against Life, then the game switch to LOTV, he is not even ready and loose the 3 firsts underdogs and you don't see him after RO8 in the firsts go4 because he is 3 months late practicing LOTV. oh and he won a go4 2 weeks ago beating Hydra 2-0 the guy who beat Dream 3-2  , so don't mind if i call fools the one who think Lilbow had a bad plan. | ||

The attitude however to barely practice Hots appalled me. Since it seems to be a casual statement, I would not put too much weight in it, but I felt not been taken seriously by that statement. | ||

Second, let's say Lilbow says absolutely nothing and then loses exactly in the way he did: 1. The crowd gives a stand-up ovation chanting "Lilbow! Lilbow! Lilbow!". All of TL praise him for his achievement and casual watchers who just tuned in for Blizzcon look up to him as the hero of foreignlands. 2. He is criticized and mocked for his performance, people reflect on what the level of foreigners is if that's their best representant, questions are raised regarding whether he should be allowed at Blizzcon over more "deserving" players. I can't wait to see how people will justify saying 1 :D If anyone had gone with #1 in your scenario they'd be as stupid as the people defending him now. As for your sarcasm, I stand by my statement. The people defending Lilbow's bullshit are the example of what's wrong with this community, not the people scorning him. | ||

Had he stated some PR bullshit like "Life is life, I did everything I could even though I had some troubles with finding training partners" no one would be mad. IMO. | ||

Because he does not think the way you want him to think he is in the wrong. My thoughts too. Pro players should never be criticized. After all, they never asked for this level of scrutiny. They never asked people to watch them roflstomp n00bs on Twitch. How did those streams show up there anyway? That is kind of creepy when you think about it. Thousands of internet stalkers victimizing these poor guys by surreptitiously eavesdropping on their otherwise private competitions. I admit, out of curiosity I watched a couple of these "streams" and I noticed not only a bunch of rude chatters making face-palm emotes, but there were even so-called "casters", hacking into the games and providing uncalled for commentary. Just rude. On top of it all, someone or some group apparently tricked these unsuspecting Starcraft players into agreeing to possibly win money if they beat up some other players. I heard the makers of Starcraft were even promoting this bs in some kind of "World Championship Series". I mean, it's really not much different from cock-fighting, ethically speaking, and should probably be made illegal or something. | ||
