      Why would you just randomly drop slurs in a tournament.
      Why would the game be allowed to continue even if it's just a small online tournament.
      Why would you be upset at someone playing efficiently in a tournament of all places.
      Why would someone like that even get in a tournament.

    People asking to "fight fair" in a strategy game really puzzle me. I understand being upset at very gambly strategy like early all ins cause it can feel like a bit of a waste of time to have games that are decided by the opening before you can get proper information and even when you win it feels like it wasn't a real game that got to properly unfold (I have this issue with super aggro decks in card games).
    But when it's just like, using your tools available effectively, like having that probe not just sit there but actually cause some minor damage, or exploiting lack of detection with invisible units, it's so strange to see someone get upset at that. I don't think sun tzu was writing stuff like "always engage your ennemies frontally, warning them in advance and only attack if you think they have a chance to win that fight" but to be fair I never properly read the art of war maybe it's very different from what I thought.

    OMG I remember that one with the guy who wanted to start his own league tailored exactly to his own vision of the game that lived in the confines of his head alone -- and he wanted people to pay him like $50 for the privilege. Didn't he write up like a 3-page Google doc full of rules too? And it said he could just kick ppl out & keep their money if they broke any of the myriad nebulous rules in his mind (which, I had to imagine, would've de facto amounted to ever beating him for any reason)?
    Raging mindlessly bc you're tilted is one thing -- but man, that really was peak delusion. It was so premeditated and so disturbingly thorough! That was the only time I can remember thinking "wow, this is another tier beyond the usual salt; for the sake of humanity I _actually_ hope this guy is just some 13yo with delusions of grandeur and underdeveloped social skills who doesn't know any better".

    Often those large MMR gaps are caused by ranked and unranked MMRs being separate. Players have two different MMRs one for ranked play and one for unranked play. However, ranked players and unranked players can be matched against one another. Despite this, the ranked MMR will be displayed in the replays. Often what ends up happening is a player will dislike a matchup, or want to play specific maps, and so will leave games right away when playing unranked in order to try to get the map or matchup they want. This causes their unranked MMR to dramatically fall, leading to these imbalanced matchups. In a sense it is a form of smurfing, though often players are not intentionally trying to smurf. This could be resolved by combining ranked and unranked MMR systems or keeping them entirely seperate, but the weird halfway solution that Blizzard has implimented can lead to these unfortunate situations.

    26:00 it's still insane to me that you get demonetized for using curse words, especially since your old content with the creative words was hilarious.
    You should be able to just mark the channel as mature audience only and say whatever you want, it's like we're in kindergarten.
    Alas there's no decent competitor to this 'wonderful' platform so here we are.

    The community is toxic because the game is incredibly frustrating.
    Players spend days practicing only to lose to one misclick.
    Don't blame the players, let the dead horse lie.

    probe scouting is now cheating, if you probe scout you must forfeit immediately. ignore all the pro tournament games and build orders, those don't count

    I think your thumbnail helps to normalize this kind of speech.

      The reason it's in the thumbnail is because of how outrageous and disgusting the speech is.
      It's doing the opposite normalise the language. The whole series is taking a microscope to people who talk/behave like this and ridicule them relentlessly.
