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. | ||

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. | ||

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'. | ||

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. 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. | ||

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. | ||
