Well, if there's one thing to take out of all of this, is that Mango 100% embraces America's ideal of freedom of speech. Can't take anything away from him on that account when it comes to being uncensored. Just as it's just as good for others to object to how he carries himself, godlike or not.

One can see it like that, but there's a difference, really. For example, our top players when we face one another? They know they're good. They're salty when they lose to one another if it goes back and forth. But the difference here is when they say to themselves "if I just did this... I could have changed things." The way one carries themselves with a sense of humility in losing or winning, it shows self-criticism and bettering yourself from it. That's not arrogance or cockiness.
Mango's blog, to me, sounds a lot more like he knew what he had to do but just didn't do it, and used the crowd and trying to please them as an excuse for ****ing up and losing. Instead of humility? He goes on saying how if he did this instead, guaranteed he'd be destroying someone. I suppose it's just a more uncensored method of self-criticism there, but it takes away from the victories that others managed to get over him, no matter how much he tries to say otherwise and how they "deserved" the win.
Maybe he really would have won if he had done the things he talked about instead of how Genesis 2 played out, but really? Nobody truly knows that for certain. Who knows if Armada would have been prepared for Mango's Fox, Jiggs, Falco, Falcon, whomever he used when fighting to win instead of fighting to please. What's done is done and it really should have been left at that with props to the victor, to me.
He's a crowd pleaser, no doubt about it. But I don't think being the best at this game is a righteous enough excuse for just how much he looks down upon everyone else he plays (save for M2K who he fears. lol) competitively.
Again that's just me. And I'm a much bigger fan of the more humble people that can still back up their talent. Looking forward to reading in on other blogs too though, be it from other players or whatever.

Before anybody gets the wrong idea, I mean when it comes to playing the game. Not looking down on others as people.
