Just out of curiosity, If you don't mind, can you tell us what exactly was the cause of initial dispute between you and desrow? I have admittedly never seen his stream and it's rather difficult to tell what kind of personality he has because there are two factions of people describing him almost as he's actually two different people. | ||

I have admittedly never seen his stream and it's rather difficult to tell what kind of personality he has because there are two factions of people describing him almost as he's actually two different people. I've been watching his stream a bit from a neutral perspective. While I find his lack of self-conscience and unwarranted cockiness quite annoying I do find him rather entertaining in the same way I find Idra and the likes entertaining. I guess it's the feeling of not knowing what to expect that draws me in these guys' directions because many other streamers are just 'normal, polite, music-playing people' and you always know what you get if you watch their streams. With desrow you get a little bit of column A and a little of column B. Column A is his well-mannered personality. This is when he's not getting offended in ANY way because if he is he goes into a rampage of foulmouthing. This applies in the chat channel belonging to his channel aswell and he has like a dozen of mods at all times because of his phobia against being flamed. Insinuating in some way that he lacks skill in some way will grant you a ban. But in the case he's 'unharmed' in this manner he seems like a decent, often humorous guy although he tends to flame the opponents he beats (on stream, not ingame) for no apparent reason other than I'd guess self-indulgence. I'm not sure if it's just an act in an attempt to creating his own 'image' in the SC2 community but seeing as he's into the marketing and promotion stuff it's not too far off i'd guess. Personally I have nothing against him but he's the kind of person that is easy to both like and dislike. He makes himself a victim by being so offendable to all kinds of insults to his persona which is kind of unfortunate because this draws trolls and flamers to him like flies to a pile of manure. With that said I hope he steps up his game from the quite standard, lackluster protoss play he has at the moment to becoming competitive. | ||

It's just kinda weird( I noticed weeks ago) but could just be his stream students I guess. It's because he puts links to the threads in his stream chat, and tells people to go comment. He has a lot of fans that will click the links and post. | ||

He kind of is. When he's calm, he's a very nice guy, but he sure has a temper. If he loses, he sometimes makes comments on the stream about the guy who beat him (nothing horrible or personal, generic raging usually). He also has no tolerance at all for anyone in chat commenting on his play or coaching methods, even when its just a polite suggestion or constructive criticism. Ego, I guess. But, angry or not, he does have a very high quality entertaining stream. He makes sure there's almost always content on the screen, so if he's eating or taking a short break, he puts a replay on, sometimes with commentary. He also streams a lot of coaching, and whether or not you agree with his aggressive coaching style, any lower level player can learn a lot from it. Even when he's just playing, he still talks pretty often. He does question and answer sessions frequently, and he also just streams so often and for so many hours, that attracts viewers too. I think the points in this paragraph is the main reason he's as popular as he is. Anyways, congrats on the new team Desrow, and good luck in Anaheim. | ||
