I believe it is BM. Some times people pre-emptively call GG and you can then go on to come back and win. I think calling GG when you believe you've won the game to be an extremely arrogant thing to do. I only call GG when I'm the victor if my opponent says GG to me first. It is the loser's right to decide whether it was a GG, not the victor's. Sometimes the victor may have won through a cheese strategy even though they are a vastly inferior player, in which case if I was the loser, I don't feel like saying GG (you could argue I am BM in this instance). I only like to say GG to opponents who I believe are better than me, and could out-play me straight up in any given number of scenarios.

going to have to go with a big YES on this one. You are not the one to choose there defeat...
|
There are tons of threads about this already. The general consensus is yes.
|
i feel like your just rubbing your win in their face if you do it. its extra gay when its cuz of cheese and it just makes you even angrier
|
100% yes, its the most classically BM thing you can do :\
|
It's not only BM, it's also BS.
BTW, it is known as an offensive GG I think.
|
If someone says gg before me (when I'm obviously going to lose), I consider it BM. I BM them back by making them kill every single thing I've build instead of just gg-ing.
|
Just have fun man, your opponent must be very confident. Don't cry about such things, just ignore the chat and get on with life. Sure its BM when in tournaments, buts if its a ladder match just relax. Only noobies cry about it. edit use the search function so many topics on this already, OP must be new to the scene. do you feel offended because someone gg'ed you? knowingly the guy who said gg knew he was good .
|
Yes, with the possible exception of if you are going to eliminate your opponent (ie the game will be absolutely, 100%, over) in the next few seconds.

Not leaving after you have lost, and stalling 2-3 minutes when you have no chance is a bigger BM.
Usually when people gg it's a question of why you are not leaving. Simply say you are not finished yet. It's not really insulting to either people.
|
its the most BM thing you can do in sc2
|
Yeah, it's considered BM but I'm not going to lie, I do it all the time. If I get cheesed and pull through, I feel entitled to be BM and usually gg even if the game is nowhere near finished if I'm clearly ahead.
|
It's saying I WON in someone face before they admired it. Is rather rude imo. It's passive aggressive bm.
|
yep, its just about the most infuriating thing to endure when youve already lost.
|
There's really only one situation where I feel like you could call it first (well same style of situation). You've got them literally down to hiding a building somewhere on the map or a floating CC while you still have a complete army and base. At that point, calling GG first I don't mind. Though otherwise, I'll usually block the player if it's on ladder.

Yeah, it's BM. But I do it all the time when I get cheesed.
feels good

Oh, it's this thread again.
TL users overwhelmingly believe offensive GG is very bad mannered, can we move on?
