It’s a fact now: LICHTER IS NEWB. At HomeStory Cup XIV we got a combined 18 Premier Tournament titles (Olli did the math, don’t blame mistakes on me) and over 1 Million US-Dollar of won prize money to back this statement up. Some of the greatest minds in StarCraft 2 history agree with us.

LICHTER IS NEWB—let it be known, let no one deny the undeniable!

I think lichter is aware that this is only some good-spirited fun. If this ends my TL engagement... well: #worthit

So Lichter... is...

newb?

Because on a cosmic scale, or even a planetary scale, we're all relatively new[b]. Unless you're saying he's bad at video games, and in that case, the proper word would be "Noob", "Nub", or "Scrub".

Also:

"Lichter is a newb" <- This would imply the individual, Lichter, is the newb.

"Lichter is newb" <- This seems to imply that the concept of Lichter is what is newb.

The less context that is given, the more vague the declaration of newb becomes, so I guess I'm just confused by what message you're trying to convey here.

It's basically a TL writers inside joke, so your confusion is probably natural, no worries.

Why is your ID so similar to mine

Also I witnessed the moment this sign was being made and help up on stream, it was pure greatness

We had a writer, XXTN, at Blizzcon two years ago. We randomly saw him on stream with a Lichter is newb sign, rhe LR thread enjoyed that a lot and it became a running gag
