When Fluff talks about him(on twitch.tv) I can just tell, like how he gets angry when Fluff suggests drafting certain heroes or trying different strategies.

Did you consider that him disagreeing on CM matchmaking drafts might have something to do with the fact that he has been drafting for Team Liquid for like a year and it's hard to let go of that habit? These guys have known eachother for years, if they play together in matchmaking it means they enjoy playing together, you're seeing a problem that doesn't exist.

Seriously, if we were to construct a toxicity scale for Dota players, TC would be at the very bottom. I don't think he's ever flamed anyone for as long as he's been playing Dota 2. He's actually like the most mannered professional player.

You don't have to flame people to be toxic.

You could drink soda until your teeth all rot out. You enjoy drinking the soda. Does the fact that you enjoy that soda automatically mean that the soda is not toxic for you? In the same way, just because TC and Fluff enjoy playing together, that doesn't automatically mean it is good for Fluff's career to be playing with him.

"i can just tell"
lmao
you're basing your entire judgment of somebody's character off your own extrapolation of an anecdote sourced from an emotionally tilted individual

CLARIFICATION: You are actually quoting Dr. Thomas Wayne (Batman's Dad), who would later be repeated later by Alfred (this is all in Batman Begins). Just wanted to point it out so that we all get the full effect of your quote, as it occurs at two pivotal moments in the story. (Ah, who am I kidding. I just look for any excuse to talk about Batman Begins quotes

)

But back on topic - time for Liquid to rise again! #Liquidrising

Batman Begins is the greatest movie in the history of anything, anywhere.

i support TL because of the web site and liquipedia.
i don't really associate the competence of the TL organization with how the pro players perform at tournaments.

currently i rate liquipedia's recording of competitive SC2 events.. on a scale from 1 to 10 ... as a 10. its great.
if liquipedia slipped to being only 9 out of 10 .. i really could care less if some TL pro player won 3 GSL's in a row.

i'm sure the players are crushed when they lose. but, it does not alter the strength of the TL brand from my point of view.

**FLUFF PLEASE READ** - I'm 27 and currently taking meds and in therapy for a General Anxiety Disorder, and in all seriousness, I think you may have a General Anxiety Disorder too. Mine has plagued me my ENTIRE LIFE but I unfortunately did not start treatment for it until 8 months ago. I'm no expert, but a lot of what you've written about in these last two blogs remind me A LOT of things I've thought and felt as a result of an Anxiety Disorder. I waited until I had a nervous breakdown last year before seeking help - DON'T MAKE MY MISTAKE. Even if it's just for one diagnostic meeting, go see either a psychiatrist (they deal mostly with meds) or a psychologist (they do the "therapy" sessions) or both/1 of each and see what either have to say. I saw a psychiatrist first, and she then referred me to a therapist she works with to see also, and now I go to both and it has been LIFE CHANGING.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE - consider making an appointment or two (ask friends/parents who are doctors or nurses for referrals or just google some in your area) and just go from there. Even if you don't have a G.A.D. it won't be wasted money - better to try and find out you don't need it than never try it when you really need help.
