Shaking hands and gg are completely different.

And why is that, in the context of Starcraft?

I always saw it as one in the same.

When teaching my friends to play, I always taught em to "gl hf" or something similar at the start to do the "e-handshake". It's just sportsman like.

[Next_rim]

I bm all terrans, regardless of who wins. I hate current PvT metagame and don't enjoy a single PvT.

[TcaTX]

Things like 2 gate proxy... bunker rush... If I fail to beat it then I will not will not waste my time on a heartless gg for losing a game due to my incompetance.

[Monk]

I never type in 1v1 ladder matches - especially after breaking my g15 wrist wresting thingy

[Meatex]

if its a good game I will gg
If I cheese because close spawns I will say sorry unless he starts to bm
I never gg a bunker rush
4 gate
any all in

I will usually gg if it goes into mid game

[pikk0n]

Meatex, gg.

[JaredKz]

I only GG if he played well. If I die to something stupid, then I'm angry at myself so too annoyed to GG.

Interesting how sc2 players seem to be so ready to hate themselves compared to how many other competitive games (CS, dota) are more interested in blaming team mates/opponents.

Not necessarily good, but interesting.

No surprise, those are team games. When a team fails, people try to assign blame, and rage out. Plus, it's harder to measure individual skill, which promotes looking outward for reasons.

SC2 only has you to blame.

[LennX]

Those sc2 players who likes to blame other people plays 4v4.

Quick Comments

ToRDeathsFang:

I was just gonna say this. Beat me to it >=(

[SkyBreaker]

I always "GL HF" out of respect to the other player; it only takes a few seconds to do and to be quite honest; it's not like doing-so hinders your game-play as there's not much else to do in those first few seconds of the game (other than spam APM, of course ).

And I always end the game with a "GG" and/or "GG WP" - regardless of how I lost; because at the end of the day; SCII is a game where I am solely responsibly for my losses & wins and therefore whether I was beaten via cheese or in a long-macro game is irrelevant; as it clearly means I was out-played.

The bit above I mentioned about solely being responsible for my own wins/losses is such an amazing factor that I about SCII, but that's another story! Although I often don't receive "GL HF" in return; or in some cases a "GG" but it's always nice when I do, even nicer when people have a quick-chat after the game...

Always warms my heart :]

[TAXanT]

If I lose to cheese or a massive ball of muta's I don't gg generally.

Any other situation I do. I try to say glhf at the start and talk a little so I'm less annoyed if I lose. Easier to say gg If you've had a bit of friendly chat. But it depends on whether it IS a good game or not.

[Synizta]

I GG, IF im happy with how i played, otherwise; cheese, allin's, i do something which costs me the game, i won't, oh and 2v2, 3v3, 4v4 i won't GG, unless the game was like aweosmely epic.

Otherwise im quiet apart from the opening glhf. if they BM me and start talking shit, making comments, i'll serve it back, otherwise i'll leave as soon as i feel i've lost a game.

[FSDarkNemesis]

And also if I train with my clan mates, I would gg regardless of outcome. You don't want to hurt the feelings of fellow clanmates ya?

[CCJester]

I always gg... and glhf at the start... its pretty automatic... i kind of figure that if i got cheesed i should have stopped it and if i lose later on in the game then its more than i just got outplayed

[Disadvantage]

I always gg, but if I am in a bad mood I say "lol, gg" just to be a jerk. Love having a chat after the game too if the other person hangs around!
