PPD on the other hand offers nothing constructive to resolving the issue, which frankly is an embarrassment, especially because he is their captain. | ||

Do you really think in american football, football, basketball, rugby, hockey etc players aren't constantly talking mad shit to each other's faces to get reactions? Come on man. If anything esports is legitimizing itself by not being so PC that it removes human elements from it. Athletes don't complain, fans love the "behind the scenes" drama of hearing about it between athletes, and athletes are adult enough to brush it off. | ||

Most of the people complaining likely turn up their noses at shit like Keeping up with the Kardashians, but eat this dota drama up. I don't know, it just seems petty to me. | ||

Heck, EG is the best team in the world so actually every team should play with a ping dissadvantage to them. | ||

Heck, EG is the best team in the world so actually every team should play with a ping dissadvantage to them. Pfffft. In fact there is a thing in some sports where matches are played twice, once on each stadium, to "equilibrate" locally advantage. ------ Anyway, the real problem with PPD is not his attitude/personality but instead how people get excited over his salt+flame+disrespect, which at the same time encourages him. Same with Sumail, he can be a beast but that doesn't mean he has to be a shitty person, which later on will be someone kids will look up to and will always try to copy or at least justify such hateful behavior. In football, for instance, you have people like Cristiano Ronaldo and Ibrahimovic who are really good players, but instead of being a good example they prefer to be as crappy as possible. Of course, they are not forced and shouldn't be, it is just a personal choice. If every time they do something like that, people reprove them, they may stop. If this would lead to a fist fight on the scene, I am sure that people will just cheer, that's how dumb people are. Note: What everyone backing up / not minding this behavior is possibly missing or avoiding is how that the same thing hits them when they play. Usually people playing on the same level doesn't see things in the same way. Even when Barcelona plays against a team from a lower league, the lower team's players are usually happy to play against them even if the get rekt, could be because of admiration or whatever you wanna call it. And there were times when Barcelona lost against way worse teams, so you never know. Even if Pain sucks, they may dream to win against EG and could be happy to play against them, and that crap PPD gave them: "what’s the point, you’re not qualifying for this event so just get this shit over with" is a direct insult+disrespect, in fact I would punch him in the face if I could, because as much as many don't care I do. Taking into account that previous statement from PPD and combining it with the twitter about direct invites, I feel like he doesn't want to play any qualifier at all, with that kind of thinking just give them an invite direct to TI5 finals and "get that shit over with". Lastly, guys how do you feel at work when your boss or anyone with a better position than yours treat you like shit? Is he really better in a way that he can just treat you that way? Do you accept it like it is the way it should be? Come on, it is called human interaction, in real life, when you meet someone like PPD and experience his behavior first hand, it is a common reaction to hit him hard, just to try and put some sense into him. | ||

A dark, but honest way to look at it. What PPD said was rude, but nothing that we wouldn't see before a hyped boxing match. People calling for super polite, SC2 level dota are asking for boring dota. I enjoy me a little flame. | ||
