My theory is that playing on C9 and constantly dealing with EE and getting second place stressed Aui out. After losing in the WB finals at TI5, it was starting to feel like C9 all over again and I can see him feeling desperate and starting to mentally prepare himself for 2nd place again. It's amazing what being in such a shit atmosphere for so long can do to a man (talking about C9). But now that he has that win under his belt, hopefully he can start to change his mindset and find success with his future teams. | ||

Just seems like he was part of the problem at C9, and was part of a small problem again at EG. | ||

I dont relaly buy that, he had already won DAC with EG, and been with EG for almost 8 months. To me it seems more like he is the actuall problem, both on C9 and the growing problem they ahd to cut off at EG. Edit; I just want to add, as everyone els thinks, I also think Aui seems like a super nice person and I liked him on EG, but i believe ppd did the right thing in cutting him off, and having the possibility to get rtz back is a great boost in pure skill. I think EG is coming out stronger with the swap of players... As ppd said in the blog, Fear is super versatile, can play any role and any hero, he can adapt to just about any play style, him as #4 again makes me really excited, looking forward to seeing the new EG  | ||

Deadpan humor and extremely dry sarcasm aren't for everyone. On to the next tournament we go, and this time without all the pseudo-fans. The people making all the noise are the same ones who switched to EG flairs after DAC. Good riddance. Agreed \o/ | ||

You're really jupming through hoops to make it seem like Aui was perfect and C9 mentally ruined him, when he already won tournaments with EG before TI5 and PPD said his attitude was still bad. | ||

However Suma1l currently has a pretty immature mindset and hence his time in high school wouldn't be fruitful. He'd probably still not learn how to interact, and will hide back in the virtual world where he is held in high esteem. Still education is important, and I'm glad eg made arrangement for him to learn in an alternate manner via private tutoring, and I hope the arrangement would be taken seriously by suma1l. | ||

My team is better than the other teams, I'm a true fan not like others, how dare people like other things. I'm one of the few capable of understanding ppd, not many ppl can do that. Liked him way before it was cool to like him. My opinion is the right one. | ||

Others are free to like whoever they want, but if "fans" are so quick to jump ship from the team they "supported" I'm not exactly disappointed to see them go. As for me, I can't wait til the next tourney to see how the boys do. I'm sure more than a few people can relate to his sense of humor, but those who don't loudly proclaim their disapproval and that can be more than slightly annoying. I honestly enjoyed his stream at the start because he's one of the few pro players that listens to bands that play real instruments (and good ones at that imo) instead of some form of electronica. It's not every day you turn a Dota 2 player's stream and here A Certain Romance playing. Never said my opinion is right, I just stated it. You don't agree? Tell me why, I'm sure you're capable of forming a real argument. But again, the effort was there and I look forward to your next attempt. | ||
