Well, you know when they choo to intimidate you during the game because they really want you to know that they hate you.

This problem is more like whether we, as a spectator find players getting vocal all the time, find it annoying or not.
It's OK to say that I find Harimoto/Niwa/CJK annoying because of their behavior on the table. It's a matter of personal opinion. And if the player was deemed intimidating/bad sportsmanship, they'd get carded or fined so I'm happy to leave that to umpires.

XU Xin got a yellow card yesterday from the umpire between Set 3 and 4

FZD plays very calm with more variation than he usually does. Problem is that this is not his natural playstyle and might actually hinder him at finding the zone

in fact, i think FZD's calmness makes the difference with LSS who is trying to bring his explosive and risky balls throughout the game. He probably needs to calm a bit at critical moments like the end of 2nd game.
