So demuslim refers to M. Ali? And means " the Muslim"? I didn't know, but I like it in fact. And the "the" is no issue to me as this is sometimes us in French "le Tod" ae.

It has no individuality. He is not a muslim. Muhammed Ali happened to be a muslim. I don't even see the connection between liking a boxing champion and calling yourself "demuslim". Who referred to Ali as "that muslim"? or "da muslim"? or even "the muslim?" It's a bad name because it brings in a whole bunch of politically/racially charged connotation on an ID for a pasty white kid from the UK.

I much prefer words chosen seemingly at random by Korean players. At least those words are blank slates with minimal connotation and are usually abstract enough. Many are probably chosen for their aesthetically pleasing phonemes.

Demuslim is just a multisyllable abomination that is, at best, misleading and childish, and at worst, patently offensive.

Offensive..? Really? How could it in any way be offensive to anyone?

I wonder what IgnE would think of my TL nickname.

How is it offensive?

Is Sangho a murderer? In that case, how dare he patently falsely advertise himself by calling himself Killer!

Yeah, and Sniper kills people! How dare he call himself that unless he's actually a gun for hire?

the worst is ActionJesus.
i heard that he isnt actually the real jesus.

I think we should, from this point forward, measure rage in the quantity and scale of the balance changes demanded after the match.

The story I've heard Demu tell on stream is that when he was a kid, he saw Ali on TV and asked who he was (or perhaps "what" he was, as in his profession) and someone told him Ali was a muslim. He got confused, as kids do, and thought muslim was what we call a boxer.

Or something a lot like that anyway, 'twas a while ago.

On Huk's play, I don't know it just seems wonky.

He doesn't execute the greedier, dual-forge styles particularly smoothly and his timings don't look all mapped out, and the playstyles that he is comfortable with aren't particularly effective at the highest level.

It wasn't THAT long ago that he got out of Up/Downs, despite the frequent jokes his army control is pretty good for the most part.

Perhaps he needs a break, or a change in environment, or something to break him out of a rut that appears as much mental to me as it is to do with his skillset.

I find it really interesting that Demuslim always hits around the 14 minute timing
and every game Huk had exactly 1 collosus without range and a bunch of random gateway units that don't even count.

I'm no expert in pvt, but wouldn't (P)First's style be better suited against this timing.
Getting templar first then go into collosi....

There's only one kind of templars for HuK. And they aren't high.
