Spell Pierce=Noob?

So I was playing my Turbo Fog deck against some dude on MWS that wanted to test his jund deck against other 'top tier' strategies. He played first. Turn three I drop a Howling Mine, leaving a Glacial Fortress untapped, with a Spell Pierce and a Path to Exile in to my hand. I'm feeling pleased with myself. Ready for anything. Next turn he plays a Bloodbraid, cascading into a Blightning, which I obviously Spell Pierce the hell out of. To which he responds, 'Spell Pierce maindeck=noob,' and disconnects, depriving himself of the swarm of derision I was conjuring in retort.

The moral of this story is that this guy missed out on learning how to play against something that worked well against him because of his biases. Did he call the person at the tourney that beat him with Turbo Fog a noob too?
