It is part of the sports entertainment tho. Like I would argue that booing and banters(in its limits ofc) are far better than what Koreans did to Weibo during Finals. The silent and pity claps were so bad it felt like I wasted my time watching the whole event. At least on banters there are stakes for both teams to do better. You have the ability to shut up the audience yourself. You cant do anything if the audience is already silent before the game even starts.

[@zMajicz2]

@@EmpyrIsAesir Weibo/T1 fans weren't bantering because they knew there was a massive gap between the two teams, Asian cultures typically also show a lot more respect to opponents. That's what the silence and the "pity" claps were from the T1 fanbase, did you want T1 fans to start laughing and/or taunting the giga-gapped Weibo fans? Some good ol "your teams dogshit get clapped, 3 0, 3 0, 3 0, 3 0!!!" is what you were hoping for in that event? When weaker teams shit talk way better teams you get meme'd on and laughed into oblivion. Look at the all female soccer teams that got clapped by 14yo Boys teams and old timers teams, those women are still being laughed at.

[@MaskedDeath_]

​@@EmpyrIsAesir It doesn't have to be part of sports entertainment, though. It's just deeply ingrained in the mentalities of some sports fan groups. You can cheer your team on, get excited for amazing plays, or celebrate when your team wins, and all can be done respectfully, too. Shitting on the opposing team isn't the only way of being loud during a game. And I don't even mind when insults are hurled, in cases where they're well-deserved (e.g. player plays in a way that risks physical harm for others), though it does suck for the kids & families present. I've been to my fair share of sports events, and honestly the difference in the atmosphere is immeasurable between a game where fans clap for the other's team win as a sign of respect, and a game where smooth brains literally boo the opposing players for good performance. In my country, for example, volleyball games tend to have a great atmosphere and are a great experience, but soccer matches often feel like you're stuck in a cage full of apes and feel less enjoyable (even if the game itself is good).

Thank god AI is gonna substitute translators in the near future anyway

[@abouttime2569]

I got a feeling that he wasn't even a trained translator. The event organizer just got somebody who supposedly ''speak'' Korean and English and just gave him the job.

T1 come to Europe rarely, we really don't deserve having them here. This event should filter these people out. No one should boo a team in E-Sports, in LoL E-Sports we always resembled fair-play and kindness. Not this.

[@tankenjoyer1891]

they went all out for worlds they just trying to have fun rather than try hard

[@ksiliana]

You need at least 1 week to adjust after such a big trip and they still came 2nd. It's just amazing.

[@nguyentienkhoi9871]

They ban like 20+ champions and played for 7 hours, if G2 did not win EU will be the laughing stock to the world.

[@m.rak804]

the event was designed like a boss raid in rpg games where T1 was the boss and every other team fought them one by one. Basically, T1 fought more than 5 opponents CONSECUTIVELY and they only lost to G2 which was the final challenger. T1 technically didn't come 2nd, they absolutely railed 90% of EU and only lost to G2 because they were fatigued.

[@ksiliana]

@@m.rak804 wow, that's even more amazing

[@loldoctor]

The translator was really bad, but he also seemed super nervous. He wasn't translating the questions properly either, which was evident in Guma's interview.

[@rianxaldez1980]

If you booed the GOAT, make sure the fans don't know who you are or you will get hostaged for 3 hours in your game and get banned in your account.

[@dameionarutogaming9728]

Damn sounds like the rest of T1 were exposed to what Faker deals with on the regular.... Placed in a disadvantaged scenario still expected to perform and when you lose, the opponents and fans of opponents seem a bit overjoyed while winning versus a disadvantaged opponent lol Kudos to T1 doing as well as they did even with the jet lag, i hope they still had a great time.

Bruh, Kcorp fans are so trash to do this to Faker whom is so kind and wholesome. Glad they shitstomped kcorp even being sleepy, jetlag, tired and with around 50champ bans on T1. 😂😂😂

[@lunaw2174]

honestly that mistranslation is so wildly off it should be considered slander. I'm not a fan of Faker but I respect that he's good at the game and humble about it, and from what I've seen, it's what his fans love about him. So for the translator to tell those fans that he's bragging about his skill and complimenting the stage for being great to crush other teams on, when he's really telling them how much he appreciates his fans and wants to bring them joy. That's going to look really bad for any fans that don't speak Korean.

[@dvdmiller]

With the early lead that g2 had in their game vs T1, T1 made some insane plays to make the game look somewhat close

[@chrissears5482]

Yeah G2 was struggling to close out the game with a 10k+ gold lead at almost 40 minutes, but Yike was just way too massive on Belveth at that point. I think he ended the game at like 18-1 or something lol

[@nunthius5089]

Love how you actually pronounce Eintracht correctly :D

[@merlinbrandt9566]

As a German, its not surprising that this happen because lots of Germans take Sport really serious over here, if not too serious. the Booing (how sadly it is) is really really mild compared to what German Sportfans are capable of. Its not rare to have Police on alert and waiting on Trainstations and such when Soccer games are happening between two Clubs, where the Fans cannot stand each other at all, to prevent fans from clashing and start to beat the ever living crap out of each other. not saying that all Fans were German in that Croud, but since it was Hosted in Berlin, i bet the majority was through. The best thing you can do is just pretent they dont exist cuz theyre not true Fans, theyre pretty much close to being Hooligans that are upset because their favorite Team didn't Win by a mile. that unsportsman like behavior doesn't have a place neither in normal and or E-Sport.

[@kevinreisfresser7951]

Fans were KC. Apparently the German fans who were there for NNO and BIG were nothing but respectful and fun.

[@PewPewPewDieDieDie]

KC? So frenchies lol, not a big surprise.

[@lucaberger3019]

Bro what are you on about? Im german too and I was at the event. The german fans were extremly nice and cheered for all teams and the cheering for T1 was very loud. Only one single block offrench KC fans was there and they were booing and a little bit toxic. The german fans, mostly NNO fans, were really respectful and you can see that on the T1 reactions during the NNO game

[@nagygabor6300]

I don't know... this Red Bull exhibition tournament didn't hit the mark at all. They should be happy that a team took part on it like T1.

[@jeanjacjomo3697]

Just to credit the booing from a French view. The "boo" stuff was very short and fastly stopped by other fans. It was a sort of a small portion of fans, although it was not confirmed; that did that and represents very little how Karmine Corp is with the core of their fans. When spotted, those fans are put out of the circle of fans quickly. Please do not make a generalization of a small portion of the community doing stuff they usually does for other stuff also (football for example).

If your smalltown soccer club gets the chance to play against the world champion its normal they tryhard and its appreciated. T1 shouldn't need them not to tryhard to win.

I'm not fluent in korean and only can understand a few words and sentences and it's so obvious that the translations are way too off. Faker said something that is clearly addressed to their fans ("paendeulege" even if you don't know korean it was pretty obvious he was saying that) but the word was never there on the translation. That's so messed up. He probably wanted to be like person who translated the "unkillable demon king" lol
