Ninja lost to Pezz in a game.
Things would never be the same.
Pezz approached with the offer of a shake of the hand.
Ninja declined, he wouldn't meet Pezz's demand.
Instead he climbed down from the stage.
When you looked into his eyes, all you could see was rage.
Later that day, he could be seen in shame.
He let everyone know "Protoss is lame".
This isn't Wings of liberty, was his claim.
In Heart of the Swarm, Protoss wasn't as tame.
Was that just an excuse, or was Blizzard to blame?
Either way, it's only a game.
A few weeks later, they met on ladder.
Ninja had a lead, for Pezz it couldn't be badder.
Yet Pezz would not die, he was landing his storms.
Ninja complained, how can you handle the swarm?
My units cannot beat your army. How is this fair?
To which Pezz responded, maybe you should go PAST lair...
In a rage, Pezz went to a stream.
He complained about Ninja, he said "that guy lacks self-esteem".
Petraeus, another fray zerg stuck up for Ninja and replied.
It's not his fault, it's the way you play he said (with snide).
Petraeus then met Pezz on ladder, and beat him with ease.
Pezz admitted his lost, and GGd.
They met again, this time on Belshir.
Pezz liked all inning on this particular stratosphere...
And so he thats precisely what he did. And he won!
Yet once again, like his teammate, petraeus did not gg?
Is this a pattern, that we see?
I think the answer to most is clear.
When a fray zergs enters a game they will disappear.
They won't show respect.
They won't shake your hand.
They won't admit their loss.
They just won't give in to what I demand.
In all seriousness, I jest. I felt like writing a poem, no hard feelings to the fray zergs. Fray is an awesome team.
Just thought I'd share a poem before the next ACL to build some HYPE YO! Too bad I might not even meet them at the tournament.
That's not true at all. I mean, how can you even say that? In wings of liberty I was pretty much the most mannered guy ever to you, even after losing in a tournament. I remember frequently complementing your macro back then. That's why it came as a real surprise when you started being a dickhead back to me when the roles were reversed and I started winning a majority of our series.
I don't think you realise how it feels to put just as much effort into the game as most if not all of the australian zerg players, and then every time you win a series its just dumbed down to "protoss". I had a lot of pride winning series against you in ACL Melbourne, yet I hear you telling other people how stupid my race is and that you "forgot it was hots" whatever that means?
Chadman seems to think this is a personal attack against fray, and that it paints fray in a negative light. Well, guess what, I'm sick and tired of being treated like shit, being treated like a bad player, with all the time I invest into this game I deserve the same respect I give to my peers after games are over. So maybe if you don't want to be treated in a negative light you should stop treating others like they're pieces of trash? Just because Fray is the best team in Australia it doesn't mean you can treat everyone like they're the lower class or something. You're not kings, you're just the best players.
If this was a one time thing I wouldn't really care, but no every single time I win a series you have something to say.
One of many, many examples. Talking shit to randoms on ladder is one thing, but talking shit after meeting someone irl and even eating lunch together? dafuq?
That's what confuses me about Petraeus too, we literally flew a plane to Melbourne together, probably talked for like 2 hours + included a bus ride from the airport, then a week later he treats me like shit again on ladder?
I really have to wonder, If I played a different race would I get that treatment?
Ray I'm glad you were treated well by Ninja good for you, but in reality that's just because you're an oldschool player and have been in the scene for longer than most. When a new protoss player rises they get treated poorly in an overwhelmingly zerg dominated scene.
P.S - Not to name names, but I'm not the only protoss in Australia who feels like they've been treated badly by these two.
Sounds like you take things too personally tbh. I can't think of any top player in SEA (except maybe Ray cause hes a boss) who doesn't make excuses, complain about balance, 'rage quit' etc etc especially on ladder where it doesn't ******* matter. But we don't go around making blogs about them every time that happens. THAT is why we continue to eat lunch together and be friends at events. Your immature and self indulgent behavior has lost you that privilege I'll tell you that.

"My immature behavior is TOTALLY acceptable, because everyone else does it. In fact, you're the one being immature for being so sensitive at our derisive behavior and calling us out on this."
This is literally the dumbest thing I've read in months. It's honestly not that hard to gg every game, and be nice to people online, and there's no excuse for doing so. BMing a stranger on the internet is stupid enough, but doing it to someone you know is just retarded.
Lol wow it hurts that i lost that privilege pet :/
I didn't write this blog expecting to be friends afterwards. I don't see why you get to dictate what's acceptable and what's not. The way I see it, I've been pushed to my limits and this is my response after trying to remain friendly for a long time.
Also it's not "except maybe ray because hes a boss" it's "except maybe ray because he's protoss" and like he said, if he balance whines, he gets a whole lot of shit where-as zerg get off free because australia is a massive zergfest.
If Australia was made of all protoss, and they made fun of u every time u won a series saying zerg is easy etc etc, how would you feel?
EDIT: Jazbas and Moonglade are both the perfect examples of well mannered zergs. There are plenty of players in Australia who don't act like brats.
It is said that if you know your enemies and know yourself, you will not be imperiled in a hundred battles; if you do not know your enemies but do know yourself, you will win one and lose one; if you do not know your enemies nor yourself, you will be imperiled in every single battle.
