[honggildonggame]

라면만 먹어서 실신했던 그 영상...

[kinmanyuen]

the shavingcream was too much 

[SteveSmith26]

That's a Korean.  He probably played for 72 hours straight before this.

[tony5r000]

@SteveSmith26 72 hours is nothing for a korean, he probably played for 72 years

[kutchero]

3:56 LOL same Picture same Pose

[WhyTheFlux]

So I was going to play a game in live TV but then I took an arrow to the knee...

[masterpanos1990]

that shaolin was not focused enough for that kind of mental challenge

[AdamOoi85]

MEDIC!!!!! MEDICCCC!!!!!

[i99xx]

can happen if you play to much... the brain shuts down after a while

[Dualwieldingroxas]

@i99xx ...CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

-plays 16 hours of starcraft on a saturday-

...Nope... Not feeling anything ;D

Unless, of course, i'm not human... (which is entirely possible, considering I play toss xD)

[FreakVan11]

3:59 CARRIER TO THE RESCUE!

[BromeoMcBrostein]

why was this being sponsored by gillette? they dont even have facial hair...

[Joyfulchute]

@BromeoMcBrostein exactly, gillette gave them a close ass shave.

[blaxerx]

happens to me all the time. after 48 hours non stop gaming + youtube + gaming.

[CtrlRm]

Probably had an anxiety attack

[ssyw2700]

where's the medic?

[billydab0b]

Guise he didnt faint, he burrowed!

[CocoEspada]

@jango3 *sigh*......right...

[maverick42a]

He passed away moments after making it to the hospital this is a sad video

[ferrarithief]

@maverick42a LOL he's still alive...

[TNABEST]

@maverick42a n the final game of the 1st round of the Gilette OSL, the game was delayed. During the wait, Control fainted and was transported to a hospital where he was diagnosed with pnuemonia and lack of rest and nutrition. Control's opponent, GoRush, opted to forego winning by automated forfeit and thus a rematch was played which Control won. - You're a faggot.

[Sebastian781]

@TNABEST how sad he went through all this :(

[jango3]

If it was Halo Reach, I would shit on these people......American Style.

[SharinganBoy9899]

@jango3 lols Amaerican style = Asian's first day of gaming

[MrRedzac77]

3:40 nothing special ...

[midgetman8888]

[jolu145]

[maxc333a]

what pixel are his eyes?

and dont thats his way of being silent control lmao

[Willkott]

think he used gillette to cut his wrists with

[Savci008]

Holy crap, don't keep your head that close to the screen, even if you are about to faint.

Also, I heard you don't like sleeping. No offense.

[waterhot80]

.. When he fainted the commentators should have said... GEEEEEEEEEEEE GEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HH. Am I right?

[genskie24]

he faked it so he could get hot korean girls to take care of him. i would've done the same thing.

[TROLLERSDELIGHT]

Lol hey Tar League that's my league in SC2

[TheOtherChris]

First knockout victory in SC?

[minerasasd]

he looks terrible

[venpresath]

I feel bad for him... but he lived so i can make fun of him! he sure is SILENT in his control HAR HAR HAR

[TheManGuyDude]

@venpresath lame

[venpresath]

@TheManGuyDude thats the point maaannnn lmao

[EnsignN7]

@ohArtin It depends on what team you're looking at and what position you're in. B-Team players are required to play way more hours than A-Team Players and on average it's around 8-10 hours. A-Team players are usually required 6-8 hours.

[Savci008]

@EnsignN7 Haha, that's so moronic. People thinking that the more one plays by force the better he gets. Stupidity. That's not what it takes to become a good player.

Really, don't get that system.

[EnsignN7]

@Savci008 If it's by force I don't know why a person would pick a job as a progamer. Most of them know what they're going into when they become a progamer.

[Savci008]

@EnsignN7 Well, if it disrupts a normal human's life cycle and sleeping habits, then I'd say they force it onto themselves.

[EnsignN7]

@Savci008 I think this was the era with the most enthusiastic players that wanted in (and willingly pushed themselves this far). Yeah they pushed themselves to the limits but we still love them. Then again this has only happened to two people (Silent Control physically as this video and I believe Kwanro had a mental breakdown not too long ago and is on hiatus).

[lucirz]

just another sport related injury :D

[Chretze]

happened to me too, when i ran out of energy for cloaking...

[DrMichaelWolf]

Looks like he was too far from the pylon.

[venpresath]

@DrMichaelWolf lmfao

[Kiror789]

nothing says Korea like carrying an unconscious player off stage at a Starcraft tournament.

[yue12321]

Wow even a sport like this has injuried lmfao what did he do get an eyestrain?

[ESLTVTexXxas]

Nice Trailer,the opener looks pretty much like one that I know very well

[nisbahmumtaz909]

I guess you could say...*sunglasses*

He lost control of himself.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH­HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[Mendelevium146]

I call it on amphetamine abuse

[BradanKAnderson]

lmao, gilette ad for korean's to shave with?

[Sharadix]

@BradanKAnderson i thought only 1% of all koreans can grow a beard

[FrayztheUsher1]

Looks like he lost his control~

[proberush]

@FrayztheUsher1 he was being silently controlled by gorush's sexiness

[Bigbobo33]

@FrayztheUsher1 YYEAAAAAAHHHHH!!

[smirko]

LOL :D

[matt91gee]

REQUIRES MORE SUSTINENCE

[narcoticle]

he was just up practicing all night thats it

[LiquidT3nsion]

In the US the rescue would've swarmed that place in a second, but in korea a fat boy carries you like a sack of potatoes and takes u backstage then prolly they bring another player to play the game lol only in Korea

[imperatorxy]

he fainted because he practised although he was ill

[staphinfection]

He'd probably been up for 10 days straight without eating or drinking......

And all those GOD DAMN FLASHING LIGHTS!! He might have sensitivity to eat.

[bobjimjones]

must...spawn... additional...pyl- *faints*

[TheDean2000]

Poor guy my ass. Im sure hundreds of korean girls offered to help "relieve him of his stress" right after he regained consciousness.

[iamwalls]

He passed OUT, not away..

[MikeHall683]

rest in peace

[DerSeboo]

Did he really pass away? =O

[Maurakumo]

who would of thought starcraft could take so much outta you

[some805DDRinguy]

Looks like the real winner was Gillette for extra advertising time

[lzrd0113]

Some people don't know when to take a break.....

[Biohazard1997X]

the power was too overwhelming

[MouthofSaurons]

Power Overwhelming

[thevandit]

he died. his heart exploded. His wife killed herself shortly after and their son is now in a rehab center for marijuana overdoses.

[asiangamer64]

@ohArtin So they have a minimum of 6 hours a day, children in public schools play as much video games as that. So you are inferring that they have no maximum limit? With the intensive and extremely competitive atmosphere of starcraft progaming, do you think these games can "rest most of the day" while there are others practicing and training to be the best?

With e-sports stadium tickets being free, how do you think income is rewarded? Wouldn't a rank A gamer gain more income than a rank C?

[ArGeNeration]

I damn lol`ed at commentators which were clearly less exited than about f.e. hero kill : D

[asiangamer64]

@ohArtin Where are you getting your information? Unless you are the most elite of the elite sc2 progamers, you get treated like shit due to the intense competition and subpar living conditions. There is a lot of talk of progamers creating a union, but its too difficult to actually start one, due to the fact that it would label professional gaming as an actual job, thus interfere with the minimum hours for a minor, cuz working for 14 hours is totally healthy. there is a interview on teamliquid

[clvinning]

every sport has their injuries...

[tlswhdgjs]

@clvinning Hahaaa I lol'd so bad what i read this.

[TaliaTxT]

@ohArtin they have a pretty hard day thats what i meant with "threaten" sorry if i used the wrong word english is not my main language :)

They have to wake up pretty soon play starcraft like 10 hours a day and have eating time at a fixed time. couldn't live with that @___@

[evilfatsh1t]

be funny if the 2 guys who picked him up put him back on the chair and forced him to play

oh man~ thatd be SOO funny

[Mewi987]

@evilfatsh1t HAHAHAHAH ow man that would fucking make my day , nice one

[TaliaTxT]

@ohArtin im pretty sure i know it

but i read something that i was sick but me first oppinion could have been right too

[XXWxwwxWXX]

I feel even more sorry for the fan girls

[TaliaTxT]

Thats what happens when they get so bad threaten..

[joeysbomb]

he just didnt wanna play him

[Leziii]

Lives up to his name...

[IKnowWereYouSleep]

fuck asians #FTW

[Madorem]

@IKnowWereYouSleep no, fuck you!

[JuOnTheGrudge2]

@IKnowWereYouSleep no fuck you asshole

[Titleification]

just needed some V

[Pablols7]

shit thats fucked up

[FireFlysc]

Is it really that hard to take a five minuet break and eat a burger? Come on!

[flukshun]

i think this happened to me at Whataburger after I ate an A1 Thick and Hearty burger after a night of drinking. spent like 5 minutes trying to catch my breath, and when i went to put away my tray i woke up on the floor. Or could very well be something completely differently...i just remember feeling like this guy looked.

[Kino5journey]

Silent_Control passed out cause he hadn't slept or eaten properly, after this happened they started questioning the pro-gamers wellbeing.

[coltin5]

He was just fucking nervous, in korea starcraft is huge and with all the cameras on him and the live crowd he fainted, i would prolly do the same lol

[NebPWN]

i jus realized programer looks a lot like programmer

[XxDartexX]

@NebPWN

Thats what I thought at first, and I was thinking why programmers were idols..till I actually read the word

[nexus1g]

Can anyone explain what happened to him? Does anyone know? Was he sick?

[Golden2Talon]

watch how often they photograph him...

[nexus1g]

@Golden2Talon You think it was a seizure or something?

[Golden2Talon]

@nexus1g

yea

[Tutenstein]

omg!

This is really shocking...

These are the monents when you see, it is not just "gaming". They are under so much pressure...

[yourkiller117]

I'm pretty sure it would have been a good game.

[purplefrog21]

Looks like he over practiced...

[kokohero]

WHAT THE HELL all the ppl scream?!? These ppl are mad, crazy..get out in the sun..U'll all die from overweight and lack of D vitamins hahaha..sheeeeesh!

[ilurius]

overweight? Compare Americans and South-Koreans. I wouldn't say they die if they go outside, because you don't get that much D vitamin from sun. Do you know that starcraft to Koreans is like Football for Americans? Like Americans wouldn't be screaming if their favorite player passed out just before the game is starting?

[ingofreak]

you mean american football

[ilurius]

Yeah

[Kordox3]

Why american football?

[ingofreak]

because football already existed when the americans stole its name.

[bridaco]

And you'll die working that job. You'll die watching that football game. You'll die running. WE WILL ALL DIE. You act like death never happens.

[Kordox3]

None of the players are overweight. You have no idea what they do when they're not playing. Stop being such an idiot.

[kokohero]

@Kordox3 Hahaha that's the whole point, they don't do anything else!!! Scary shit!

[Kordox3]

As you can see with your own eyes, the guys playing are anything but overweight, so you're simply wrong.

[kokohero]

@Kordox3 FFS everybody don't go fat cuz of lack of exercise. The body stops working, you go pale and thin or pale and fat depending on what U eat and digestion. Whether they look like sumos or like skeletons don't matter..I find it disturbing when ppl spend all their time indoors nerding away with games. I like games aswell but I'd never make it a lifestyle. Don't get it why U get so protective about it mate..it's not like I attack you personally..or maybe I am haha..

[Kordox3]

I'm not getting particularly protective. You said yourself that that the people would "all die from overweight", and I simply pointed out that clearly this is not necessarily the case. It's a silly and incorrect stereotype that everybody who use much of their time at a computer are out of shape and probably fat. I personally know many people who are major geeks but are in very fine shape because of an otherwise healthy lifestyle.

[kokohero]

@Kordox3 Ok ok yea I might have said that..in that case I withdraw! Now I'll kill some zombies (L4D2) and after that I'll head to the gym..be well M8 and hope U'll have a great 2010=)

[Stretchball]

Lol, that's hilarious - In a bad way D:

[ppowerman1]

what if the 2 guys who picked him up put him back in the chair............ :(

nah, kidding, but he did look pretty bad and it was kinda obvious that someone should've not let him in the match that day

[AlwinRoth]

he should take a break, looks tired and depressed

[kurdore2]

개쉐리 님들 니쉐기 실신해서 재경기신청해서 8강올라갓음

실신햇음 기권아닌가여???

무슨 재경기 나발;;;

그럼 축구는 부상하나있다고 재경기하나

[dualkeybladeroxas]

Gorush is kind of like: uh.... wtf happened to him?

[Twentysixbillion]

1) He got a phone call saying he was to play the game on television

2) He played the game nonstop until he was due to leave his house for the television show

3) There was a delay waiting to start the game

4) Brain tells body - lets have a lie down on the floor

5) Show managers disagree and remove him

[kurdore2]

@Twentysixbillion brain tells body... lol u gt some humor in u

[vertigo0613]

He was fainted because of lack of sleeping and to much practice in that time.

[Happylilshroom]

I dont feel that bad forem.. im sure he recoverd and went on to fuck alota hot korean girlies

[FCule]

[megamist88]

[RpR1337]

[2drc]

[yumms1234]

[2drc]

GoRush tactic #154:

Tranquilize the opponent's ramen noodles

0:28 - GoRush I've come to own you for putting a whoopie cushion on my seat last time.

2:33 - MY INTERNAL ORGANS ARE FAILING!!!

3:06 - (GoRush) That tranquilizer better work before my poker face fails to hold any longer

3:53 - (GoRush) OWNED!

5:00 - We've come to arrest you for being a general bastard to most of our players. We liked it when the ratings went up but the recession happened. We have to cut you.

(GoRush): What? NOOO!!

[Marcuzzorox]

wow, thats not good ;/

[Zeruel37]
