So much drama when I just say I can't congratulate because I thought this set of games was bad. Basically G5 played strategically bad and my management moves were very bad. I do not shake hands after a live game if I think it was shitty, so I don't understand why I should do it online. I was actually litterary shaking while playing, and it doesn't get better anytime I play in a tournament against a player I am confident to win against. There's people arguing and even trolling in this thread, but really you can't blame me for telling my honest opinion since G5 did the same in a post game interview.

About the game analysis going on up in the thread, I think Lalush pointed pretty much what happened, even if I felt it slightly different. I am actually a very passive player. Everything I do in any matchup is to try and counter my opponent build or strategy and eventually overrun him later with better economy or position. I almost never employ aggressive tactics if I can't see what the opponent is doing, pretty much because it's the same as casting a dice. In the destination game, I saw his gate count when I needed to see it and it was the same as mine, I and had an obs right where I needed it in mid game, to see if G5 was moving to my side of the map. The fact I failed to react at all was not because I was not expecting it, it was just because I was mentally crumbling. Game 1 was still ok and G5 somehow used my poorly positioned army at his own advantage. Game 2 was completely retarded from both sides in pretty much every aspect.

Despite the negative attitudes expressed in this thread, I feel like I've learned a ton about PvP on Desti. Thanks to Lalush and Nony for giving us their perspectives!

If ClouD isn't going to congratulate G5, I guess I'll have to do it:

If he played poorly and you were defeated 2-0 by his bad play, what does that say about your play? Pretty unsportsmanlike.

Cloud also played ret that night (for fun) lost (expected) and had some choice words for ret.. I love cloud he is a friend of mine but his attitude has always sucked when it comes to losing. We used to watch him lecture the SHIT out of Media terrans after beating them and hearing complaints about imbalances.. it was a double sided sword cutting everyone in the room.. pretty fun to watch as a media zerg rofl

I don't think you even know what you are talking about. What bugged me about media terrans was the fact they insulted the shit out of me when they lost. Here I just said the games were played poorly and with ret I complained about the fact these new maps are too good for zerg against protoss. I don't understand how you can't see the difference here.

Again, you can't see the difference. Media terrans felt the need to insult, to try destroying the self exteem of other players when they lost games. If you want to list things regarded as BM I have a whole bunch for you aswell, but seriously pretty much the most of players feel the need to explain why they lost or disappoint when they do so, so why do you think this is something new or extremely offending? And why are you even speaking about this stuff in that manner after what you said to morrow not so long ago.

I'm just glad that ClouD is back to BW. <3 Cloud. Gratz G5.

Cloud don't beat yourself up over not performing well in tournaments. It's not a perpetual thing, and it's certainly not something that everyone is immune to (like ret in courage).

About the congratulations thing: it's just a formality thing that you should say to wish your opponent good luck and show good will despite losing the game (even if you're extremely mad). You don't necessarily have to actually feel that way, but it's something that has become standard and doing it prevents you from looking like a douchebag to other people (please say gg idra), similar to 'thank you'.

oh you must be confused, I never said anything about me being manner or that I never give excuses.. I was just laughing cause you are here defending what you did/do as if it is just or correct in manner. It ain't.

Also you don't understand the Media discussion: They were pricks too. Not excusing them at all. Just you were as well.

Keep trying though cloud it is fun to watch you try and explain this and all the while talk about everyone else not understanding.

You are not "everyone else" Geoff. And I know you are just doing this to piss me off and because you like to troll on TL. I don't actually think you are stupid to the point of not understanding what other people say. In my opinion as long as I don't offend anyone I'm fine with it, and if I do I tend to apologize. That's pretty much it and I don't really feel the need to explain you why I act like I do. I actually did already, but you just forget stuff when it's convenient to create your beloved dramas on forums, so I don't see why I should keep answering your provocations.

hows he trying to create drama? you said you prepared better (which is obviously not the case as anyone who prepares for g5 at all knows hes completely willing to take risks, and the first thing you would have prepared for is probe cut timing rushes). you said he played bad, used risky builds, and got lucky. thats the exact same thing as calling someone a cheesy newbie.

Maybe in your vocabulary, in the pre match interview I said I respect G5 skills and I still do. That doesn't change the fact he played these 2 games bad, not as bad as me but not worth of congratulation either.

alright carlo you win. I was wrong to point out that you are usually bm. In fact, this is all normal behavior and everyone is wrong on the subject.

Our bad dude.
