Sure he's bm. If not being bm was a requirement we would have a lot of teamless pros... anyway his stream is actually a lot of fun to watch and one of the most informative. He explains everything he does and I've learned a lot from watching him.

He has done that on the occasion he beats me with a nice cheese build :D. But grats to them I guess even though I have no idea who doji is but I recognize mystic/chita from korean ladder ^^. no lol he goes on and on about how protoss is imbalanced and how i should be in a mental hospital for how bad i am, and many many other things. not to mention all he ever does is one base all ins anyway.

He likes to play a safe macro oriented style, but he has no confidence in his TvP so he does a lot of all ins vs protoss.

ANYONE?
Does anybody else find it funny that the guy who shares his clan tag with Idra would say something like that?
ANYONE?

That is precisely my point. You have a player who is constantly BM on your team, not just while streaming his ladder games or whatever, but also in tournament matches, yet you're trying to ridicule a team for picking a BM player up.

Difference being one is a top foreign player who almost always places well in eveything he enters and the other is not so good.

Avilo is one of the most practiced and top NA terrans? Hmmm.... >.>
Anyways GL to avilo and LgN

IdrA pulls literally thousands of times more viewers to his stream than Avilo. Hes also made literally thousands of times more in prize money. I'm sure even you can think of a few more reasons why it might be beneficial to have idrA on your team and not Avilo.

Congrats to Avilo I guess. It just seems like everytime Catz/Minigun/Destiny/anyone else plays him on stream he just turtles up and forces a 40 minute game doing the most boring strats or does some kind of all-in. (Innovative? Hardly) and this is from me watching games against him multiple times. Catz even said so on stream that's how Avilo plays...

Congrats Avilo! best of luck to you and Legion! :D

What do tournament results or how many stream viewers one get have to do with bm, in the context of this thread? Or is trashtalking someone stops being bm as long as you have some tournament results?

So basically you're saying that manners really don't matter, and fans will rally as long as the player is good?
ok cool, what was your point about avilo? lol

I'm not sure wtf he does against protoss, but every time I see his TvZ he literally almost dies like 50 times in the mid-game, and then comes back to win in the late-game, so I dunno, I see him turtle up a lot in situations when other players would have already left, but he wins a lot of those games.

I'm glad you asked.. I was pointing out the irony of hiring a PR manager alongside a guy who is known to be a problem child in the manner department.
If you don't find the humor in that I would suggest you buy a calvin in hobbes book or something.
