See the thing about being a big fan is you have to get so emotionally involved that you end up hating the person for a short period of time after a disappointing loss. Oh no wait that's how to be a douchebag nevermind, I'm a big douchebag. god, both you and scarlett herself have brought that up recently, i wonder how long it'll take to make amends | ||

So "real fans" aka Fanatics of Scarlett who see her not do as well as they believe she should be able to do leads them to outburst in different ways. So as a "Fanatic" of Scarlett it is actually quite rational, within the Psychology of the fanatic to distrust the object of their fanaticism, if that person fails to live up to expectations!

Oh, that would be the "different ways of outburst", ok; interesting how these people feel that the outburst is so very necessary | ||

-- Also i liked the interviews, they're really good stuff. And she is absolutely 110% right, zerg sucks at the moment as if you do early pressure you just have to win right there, or youre awfully behind; not the case with toss and terran. This is an important point she makes. The mod gives just that boost needed to not get hit too hard by an early pressure decision. Dreamhack hype! She's going to steal that show, she'll be everybody's favorite.

Also Scarlett hardly refused to go swarmhosts (she tried to qualify using SH in WCS 2015 season 1 for example) and Snute got a lot of his wins on the back of his stellar ZvZ where Swarmhosts didn't come into play. Besides that one Ro4 Snute got several Ro8 finishes in 2014, beating good Koreans in every run, and going out almost always against one of the stronger players in the tournament. If you wanted to compare both player's most impressive run you should've taken Snute's IEM Shenzen run. Sure, "only" Ro8, but including the qualifiers he went through an impressive list of players: EU Qualifier: Loss vs First. Loserbracket wins vs: Welmu, Yoda, Jjakji, MC, First Tournament run: He was in a group with True, Stork and INnoVation. He got out second, winning against True and Stork, with a close defeat against INno. In the Ro8 bracket he narrowly lost 3-2 against the JvZ from Jaedong. He also had these runs: WCS EU: Season 1 - Ro8 - Win vs Jjakji Loss: MMA DH Open: Bucharest - Ro8 - Wins: HerO, Huk, Hyun Losses: Innovation, Jaedong (close match). HSC IX - Ro16 - Win vs Stork, Balloon Losses: ended up in a group with 3 Koreans Taeja, MMA and Balloon. he beat Balloon. Redbull Detroit - Ro8 - Wins: bunch of NA scrubs Loss vs Stardust IEM Toronto - Ro8 - Wins: CJ.herO twice, sOs, First Loss: Life and in Ro8 a very close match vs Flash WEC 2014 - 2nd - Loss vs Jaedong DH Moscow - Ro4 HSCX - Ro8 - Loss vs Flash IEM San Jose - Ro8 - Wins: True, Huk Losses: Rain, Ro8 close match vs Cj.herO. Yes, he went to a lot of tournaments in 2014, and he performed very consistently in almost every one of them, almost always going out against a player who ended up in the finals afterwards. I have hard time not being impressed by that. That's why people call him "the best foreigner of 2014". | ||
