Why Team [Team Name] will win [Team League]

This is the first paragraph. Here I will first explain that this thread is about the [Team League]. Then I will make use of overly dramatic metaphors to describe the fierce competition that exists in this [Team League]. Perhaps the image created in your head is something like [overly dramatic metaphor]. After having made the fierce competition in [Team League] abundantly clear, I will get to the actual point of this thread: In my opinion, [Team Name] will win the [Team League], in spite of the aforementioned fierce competition. In the following paragraphs, I will explain why, using horribly stilted language.




[image loading]
had no time for the cheesy fire effect.


__________________________________________________



[image loading]
This picture popped up on the first page of google when searching for random bloke. This bloke is actually [Team Name's best Player].


[Player One]. Because I only wrote down his name and then immediately went to a full stop, his name appears very grave and significant.
Now I will list the reasons why [Player] is so good, using a small-sized sample of [Player]'s games as well as memorable euphemisms. In order to make you, the reader, laugh, I will also make use of irony, postulating that a reason which logically has no bearing on [Player]'s level of skill gives him the edge over other, similarly talented players such as [Other Player] from [Other team].


[image loading]]
This picture proves my ironic point. Obviously, [Player] is so good that [Other Player] likes to smell his hair.



__________________________________________________



[image loading]
This is supposed to be another random bloke, but I used a picture of my cat instead. enjoy.


[Team Name]'s second best [Player]
See this sentence? That sentence was paratactic as hell. This one too. Because parataxes prove that you mean business. Anyway, [Player Two]. He has a very specific ingame [Trademark Thing He Always Does]. I will explain why [That Thing] should, under normal circumstances, make [Player Two] lose. But because [Player Two] is rather extraordinary, he can win using [That Thing] where other players like [Player from other Team] would fail. Having exhausted my extensive repertoire of reasoning, I don't have anything of significance to add anymore, since [Player Two] is actually pretty mediocre and interchangeable. But I'll be damned before I admit that.


[image loading]
my cat is pretty lazy. This little fucker sleeps like 16 hours a day, whereas I have to labor over this shitty text.




__________________________________________________





For lack of further pictures of my cat, I cannot post a picture of [Player Three]. I would use google again but i'm afraid of getting sued for copyright infringement of [Random Bloke]. But to be honest, [Player Three] just looks kinda asian anyway. It's not like you could actually tell [Player Three] apart from [Player Four].

Yeah okay, [Player Three] doesn't have any results. But that doesn't mean he's bad! What do you mean, my descriptions of [Team Names Players] are growing shorter and shorter? I'm not getting desperate to find reasons why [Team Name] should win instead of [Other Team Name]! Stop implying that! Just because [Other Team Name] has a just as long post which loudly proclaims the greatness o their respective players? Shut up!



__________________________________________________



[Other Players]
I don't even know these guys. But I quickly checked up their TLPD results and apparently [One Of The Other Players] has beaten [Player Who Everyone Thinks Is Really Good]. So there you go.



__________________________________________________



[Team Coach]
[image loading]
Picture: related.

This coach has embezzled less money than [Others Team Coach]. I dunno, I think that is pretty commendable.



__________________________________________________


There you go folks. This effort should explain to you, leaving not a single shroud of doubt, that [Team Name] will win [Team League]. And a day from now, you will read the respective thread for [Other Team Name] and convince yourself that [Other Team Name] will win the [Team League]. You little indecisive rascal, you.

And if you ever ask yourself where you are going with your life, remember that Surth makes even unfunnier threads than you do. You're doing okay, honest to [God].

Air Force Ace will win SPL. Because the have FBH and shits and other teams don't have FBH.

You know, those Teamleague threads are the SC2 equivalents of the BW ones:

I am not bothered too much of those.

Are you going to make a [Other Team Name] will win the [Team League] as well or are you too biassed.

So the TL;DR version is that Air Force Ace will win SC2 and ZeNex will win BW.

Got it

Those threads are even better. I especially like the part about the teams being "hungry" for the win. Like there is this one team which isn't hungry and half-asses all of their games.

Well, those threads seriously have stopped being meaningful. When any random string of facts is enough to convince people that some random mediocre team can win the teamleague, something is very wrong <3

This was funny up until, "But to be honest, [Player Three] just looks kinda asian anyway. It's not like you could actually tell [Player Three] apart from [Player Four]." - May just be me, but that is borderline racist.
