I think some people really have it in for him based on small snippets they've seen. There is a lot more to Steve than most people think. Can't wait for more practice sessions to watch.

Are you serious? Have some respect. This thread is not about Destiny as a player, it's about his accomplishment making it on ROOT's team. Shouldn't you know the forum etiquette? Either way, it's completely their decision - not yours.

You're supposed to be a TL mod, but you act like a common whiny flamer, posting rude and demeaning comments. Destiny is a respected member of this community, and from what you can read above, Catz has legitimate reasons for Destiny's acquisition.

Therefore, and I may be banned for even saying this (but I feel it is my right to stand up for this belief), I believe that not only did you overstep your bounds as both a TL mod (who should abide by TL rules and set an example of respect to the community) but as a poster as well. As thus, I truly believe you deserve a temp ban, as would have been standardly issued to any other average troll/flamer.

Sweet move by ROOT, im a fan of Destiny's play, hes very creative. mix that creativity with the solid play of ROOT members and i think you have a recipe for a solid player.

looking forwards to observing the future of Stevens SC2 career.
all muta all the time.

Guys this is politics, dont act surprised.. He will bring the team lots of money its a pretty easy decision to understand. Piqliq is actually way better than him , and way higher ranked- but hes not popular so we won't be seeing EG.piqliq.

Similar decisions: Sponsoring madfrog for so long with no results.


The difference being Destiny has good mechanics and wins macro games, Piqliq is just some cheesy abusive protoss player that wins a lot of ladder games.


Yeah, saying they should pick up Piqliq is close to saying they should have picked up Combat-ex... the only reason they are high ranked is consistently cheesing well on the ladder. In a tournament, that is going to get destroyed, and Root wants players that are solid all around.

I have been expecting this since Minigun first started practicing with Destiny on stream, and then Catz came in too, so excellent job, I expect destiny to bring Root fame and gain.
Can you ever argue in favor of something without first proving it?

best luck at root, destiny!

User was warned for this post



The retard magnet is one if the most popular destiny videos on youtube. Pretty sure this guy shouldn't have been warned for this ;x It is a compliment not a flame. Not that warns really matter.

Thanks, I've made a note for the other mods to ignore that warning.

I checked this thread, and the only post by Saracen is the one you quoted: "Are you serious...". It's an expression of surprise or disbelief which you seem to read a lot into. I wouldn't warn/ban a normal user for that, and there's no reason to do so for a mod.

I am warning you, not for standing up for your beliefs, but for calling a mod, who has spent a ton of time improving the community, a "common whiny flamer" based on a single ambiguous comment. If you expressed your opinion in a more reasonable manner, I would have had no problem it.

Ugh..unlikable move. He's not really that kind of person who helps a team lift its professionalism, so I really have no idea for this move other than just boost their site-numbers.

Hopefully I'm wrong and it ends up well. We'll see!


You spout the same crap about IdrA.

Teams are about finding players and winning tourneys, not having a roster of saints.
