Silly progamer tweets, Elizabethan style

A recent Dongraegu tweet complaining about imbalance ignited a flurry of tweets from other Korean progamers, a flurry so entertaining we couldn’t just let it pass by. Unfortunately, the translator available at such short notice happened to speak exclusively Elizabethan English. And so we present to you, the pro-gamers of the GSL, Shakespearean style.

The following scene is based on real tweets.





Scene: Castle of GSL, small hall.

Enter Sir Dongraegu and Sir Nestea stage left.

Dongraegu: Whether facing Terran or Zerg, the result of Protoss Immortal timings are decided by no means other than the Protoss player's 'skill' in the deployment of force-fields. From the moment at which one misplaces a force-field, the victory has been yielded, yet if thine force-field placement be true, victory is attained.

[Spits on the ground]

Nestea (to DRG): Cease thy whining, it's most uncouth. Accept defeat cleanly.

MC, the fool’s head appears through the high window

MC: Attend Nestea well. How strong could Protoss be? It has yet but seen three GSL finals. Perhaps the good sir should be Protoss and improve his FF skill.[laughs]

DRG: Go to shrift, ye shameless Protoss ruffian! There is strength to Protoss now, such strength I'm fit to retch!

DRG (to Nestea): Forgive me, sir Nestea, I could not go on being so aggrieved.

Nestea: Cede victories to Protoss players, for then King David shall enfeeble them on our behalf.

[Sighs] It is so very arduous to survive as a Zerg these days... Dongraegu, let us advance together from the tournament... though I know it be more likely that we both will fall.

DRG: From this vantage, the heart of the swarm shouldn't usher in a golden age for Zerg. Let us share a drink after we are toppled.

Nestea: Verily, would that thou had braced thineself for such when first thou selected Zerg. Personally, I feel I have aged a decade in these past twelve months.

MC (to DRG): Regardless of the strengths Toss hold, one should be relied upon to vanquish Genius, at least...

DRG: Art thou without even a modicum of shame?!


Enter Lady Jessica & Sir Choya stage left


Jessica (to DRG): Soothe thineself, sirrah! Anger will only diminish thee.

Choya: Toss maintains a fearsome strength these days, have faith my Zerg friends.

Nestea: In soothe, Toss is strong, but thou art no formidable foe, I am sorry to say.

Choya: Wouldst thou receive my all-in, cousin? [laughs at length]

Nestea: Never let it be said that thou were without a measure of wit, Choya.

Choya: [laughs] Yes, but Protoss does seem peculiar strong when upon PvZ my gaze alights nowadays.

Nestea: Truly, thou art a fine and noble man, to so admit the OP of thine own race. I shall reward thee with a feast.

Choya: Aye, I admit it, I am but a poor Protoss. I accept thine gift of food.

Dongraegu, Nestea, Jessica exit stage right.

Choya (aside): Indeed, I must admit that Immortals are prodigious strong. Protoss is formidable these days, but it still depends on who uses it. Inarguably impotent when I use it!

you should try using their real names when they converse with each other to get the feeling of the conversation between the characters.

Rofl that didn't take long.

"Truly a masterpiece not seen since Shakespeare himself. The tragic fall of Mvp portrayed in gut-wrenching detail by the ever excellent David Tenant. SirJolt brings refreshing Irish flair and traditional English eloquence to Covent Garden yet again. 4 Stars."
-Evening Standard

"(Some actress, that's how much I know about theatre) gives the performance of a lifetime as the engimatic and enchanting Jessica in this modern and innovative show. Two thumbs up."
-The Sunday Times

"SirJolt is hurting ESPORTS."
-Hot_Bid

"cool story bro"
-Reddit
Starleague Forever. RIP KT Violet~

Behold the power of a true problogger.

If I may share a personal viewpoint; I think "half-a-score years" reads better than "decade".

And you have to work in "knave" somewhere in there, gave it 5/5!
