A while back when I took counter strike way too seriously, I frequently got trolled by an auto-sniper camping dipshit who went by a nickname which roughly translated into "the dreadful yeti". I tried to get him banned several times but no one seemed to listen. Needless to say it was rough patch in my life.

Oh wait, that's just not true. It was the other way around. Guess I was always a baller.

Generally anyone who takes a name from a well known established lore character or famous players.

Any variation of Inuyasha, Arthas, Illidan, Legolas or Sephiroth are not original or cool. I don't mind if people make references with their names, but c'mon try to be a little creative.


Oh shit...

I'll give you two guesses, just two.....................

Anyone that has a floating sperm in their name ~ or alternating caps. Luckily floating ~ isn't allowed in SC2 names, but that sure doesn't stop people from using it on forums~~!

Scanning my ladder:

FoOoYoOoYoO - no explanation necessary
KillaMagilla - rhymes are awesome!
June - Poor guy wishes he was July
ShankeR - This isn't COD
redpanda8 - All lowercase, arbitrary use of the number 8 (were there 7 other redpandas? doubtful)

Psssh what do I care my name Pwns =P

But yeah if it has "leet speak" in it, frequent number use, or xXXx it is pretty much guaranteed to be a try hard tag

Edit: I put the ihax on there cause I thought it was a dumb name, not really a try hard lol

I would say my orginal names from back in pre-steam CS days were kinda silly.

KK_Killer...

Then I named my self after someone who coached me in CS he was Dblbeanysnake. so i obviously went with Dblbeanysnake2....

Wc3: Not so bad I guess - Demon[of]Ice, was a clan ever memeber had to be Demon[of]W/E

And since WoW onward it's been "Phtes", Doesn't look try hard and tbh I still forget how I came up with it.

I like my new name I got in the beta, but as said before XBL gamertags are always hilarious to read, trying to read past 12 year olds' "l33tsp34k" takes me some time, the alternating caps and X's people use to try and make their worn out names like assassin, and ninja look original, is the problem imo
