SALTIEST Terran HATES Battlecruiser Proxy

34:28 Harstem: "I don't think this counts as a gg, by the way." A master of understatement! :D

[@hidef9265]

Haha, exactly. Yes Kevin, "KYS" does not mean "Good game".

[@ZAWARUD00]

Well, sometimes, people have a bit of a hard time to express their feelings, and a GG can become a KYS with some autism sprinkled on top of it.

[@zafraz1077]

Technically he is. But hes not on protoss so to that guy i say "Cry" lol.

[@DFGdanger]

I don't think the build/strategy matters when it comes to smurfing. It's just a high level player on an alt account playing against lower level players. Overall the gg/no-gg ratio seems pretty decent, almost 2/3 ggs, but these last messages sure were a sour note on game 300... I honestly can't understand how people like this work so hard at the game and get so good, and then cry and poop their pants when they lose.

[@Draemn]

Agreed, smurfing is when you intentionally lower your MMR to get matched with players below what matchmaker would give you.

[@SPQR_14]

The more you care about winning, the more bitter you are when you lose... it is common sense.

​@@jacktaormino1386 I mean the rank 100 playing against the rank one would be kinda unfair, but since you only have a map pool of 100 you couldn't really say Smurf, could also just have been bad luck.

Nice job Harstem, your games are a pleasure to watch!

[@Diogenes2077]

Claiming somebody is smurfing isn't an insult. It's a compliment. It's telling somebody that you believe his actual MMR should be way higher xD. I guess it was supposed to be an insult, but really? 'Hey, you played so much better than me, I can't believe your MMR are real.' I actually enjoy when people get so upset that when trying to insult they can't really compute anymore what they are actually saying. At the same time I is kind of scary.

People smurfing in GM is not unusual, uthermal for example does it all the time. Remember that the skill difference between low and high GM is like diamond and silver skill difference.

[@Markfr0mCanada]

You're not a smurf bud, you keep the same account and play at a high MMR while doing silly things. That certain other KZbinr who makes a new account every time he wants to play a new silly strat so he can make content out of diamon and master players while he is retired professional player, yeah that guy is a smurf.

@harstem is it better to drop Mules on blue patches over the gold? Honest question here!

Liquidpedia says they mine the same regardless of blue or gold. So I think the logic is keeping them relatively more safe by being at a forward blue base rather than the high target gold base
