There hasn't been a PPD thread made yet? O_o

Needs more salt.

Lol in all seriousness I don't get why people hate him so much, I think he's pre chill and has a good understanding about the game. He knows the very definition of support and I can respect that.

I've always liked PPD, but I may just like EG too much. His second episode of Salty Adventures was the best, really showcased the nice side of his personality.

He's from Indiana, I'm from Indiana. It's like cheering for the home team.

But seriously, I like cheering for PPD because I can tell he wants to fucking win. So many of these guys in the pro scene meander from team to team, try to fit in to broken lineups, or aren't willing to shoulder tough decisions when it comes to drafting or making the calls in a game. PPD has shown that he will do whatever it takes to win, and it's much more fun cheering for someone when you know they want to be the best as badly as he does.

Yeah, he says arrogant and incredibly passive aggressive shit all the time, but that's just a part of his personality and I don't really mind it. It's a hell of a lot better than the dozens of pro players who constantly call people fags, spics, or autistic, which is frankly embarrassing and wrong.

I mean sure, but if you're gonna judge dota players based on their personality you're quickly going to run out of players to like.

thats not true at all. i dont count a little bit of flaming here and there as having a bad personality. thats just normal, im also not always nice in my games. but what he does, is just looking down at other teams and players. even if its true what he says, and the other team ist bad, you cant say it like that. thats about having basic manners, but maybe his parents failed at that, who knows. fear has these tendencies too, and sumail is on the best way of becoming a prick too. so why should someone cheer for people like these? only because they are good and from your country? i really dont understand.

I guess because their attitudes don't strike me as being particularly offensive. They're young, talented, and of course a little arrogant. Doesn't bother me, I don't need my dota 2 team to be choirboys.

In the wide world of esports there are cheaters, liars, dirty players, racists, and bigots. It seems to me there are a lot more important things to get upset about than PPD calling his opponents "awful at dota." But you like who you like, that's fine by me.

I've never personally understood intense disliking of PPD. Yeah, he some of the stuff he says isn't always in good taste, but he's never malicious about it. Most of the time, he has really insightful opinions on other teams, players, games, etc.

I mean, I remember when I used to bitch about progamers acting like that 4-5 years ago (too influenced by Korean Brood War at that point, I guess ), so I can't say I don't understand where the complaints are coming from.

Stuff like that just seems so mild to me these days. I always found PPD to be a pretty chill guy.

Oh my he called a team awful at dota! How dare he!

Never watch real sports if that offends you. They say far far worse.

I mean the attitude was a bit much, but he isn't wrong. If teams would spend time actually getting better at Dota instead of doing whatever the fuck it is they do now then maybe EG would have some real competition in the west. As it is though everyone but secret (mb C9 on good days) is a joke to them and they barely have to work to stay on top of NA let alone the west.

I've always loved Idra and Naniwa back when I watched SC2 and I love PPD now. I really hated SC2's hyper sensitivity. Hope the dota 2 scene doesn't go down the same path.

You should reflect on how you think you know someone's personality based on screencaps and twitter feeds.
