This is the most amazing thread. I bet after he lost to Flash on PR after being so far ahead, he wanted to replicate the feat. It hasn't happened yet.
edit: Actually, i think he waits to gg so long so he can explain to his team (oov) why he lost.

I think this is kinda somewhat being blown out of proportion. You know who also takes a long time to leave, even when it's obvious that they have lost? Slayers_Boxer. My Idol. Yet every time he does it the announcers say something along the lines of " oh he is taking a moment to analyze the game in his head" or "he is regaining his composure for the next match".

Yeah, fans are starting to get annoyed by boxer doing this too though (this is in sc2, idk if people loved seeing him float buildings in bw, sorry not that big on it). If you want to regain composure ask for a 5 min break, don't float all your buildings when you have 0 supply, gees.

There is a difference between doing it in a BoX where X > 1 and then doing it in your regular proleague where you play 1 match...

I figured someone would say this so i should have added it before, but this was in a situation no different. Boxer was out of the tournament, it was some MLG although im not sure which one. They said he was "regaining his composure." Anyway I feel like it's a whole lot better to delay your gg then not to say gg at all. Besides you gotta think long term, some players use their defeats as motivation for training. Maybe that is what he was doing, of course this is only speculation.

I don't even get why people think this is a thing for progamers.

IDK if it's "out of proportion". Players who do unusual things in any competition get noticed: fantasy takes an unusual amount of time to admit defeat, for good or bad. This thread really isn't long or drama-filled, compared to some things on these boards.

Any of you guys know of game theory? Progamers CAN'T leave asap when they are behind because they need a balanced "leaving range" for their careers. If someone left the game whenever he LOOKED clearly dead, their opponents would know whenever they don't leave that there is something fishy behind that they are not aware off (carriers, bcs, hidden exp, etc)

I think this would be a really good reason.
