Too fruity? Whatever does that mean in this context? I am curious =D


It is very mine-based and has some crazy openers that involve super heavy aggression into mech, while I favor clinging to fast 3cc turtle, so by "fruity" i guess I just mean NOT 3cc turtle :D

I would give massive recognition to both Avilo and HTOMario. Both excellent. Perhaps even more important, they both reach out and take some time to help the viewers and do their best to entertain. Lets not fool ourselves, streaming live is not the best way to prevent enemy scouting. These guys do it for the fans day in and day out.

In this world of internet, it is easy to see the negative. I'd be real disapointed if either of them chose to stop streaming to get more ranks up.

You know, I just read this article, and I was waiting for a childish response like this.

What is that? You are 'the Innovator' of the Raven style?
You'd like to be, sure. There's also thousands of Bronze league innovators of Carriers and 120 Reaper builds.
You've never made Ravens (or anything for that matter) work at the prolevel, are respectless to anybody in the scene but still act all offended when you don't get specifically mentioned because you used a certain unit and never really made it work at the highest level?
I'm very sorry to bring it to you, but you're not the top contender you think you are, and you'll never be respected as much as all those pros as long as you don't act like it.

Very sorry for the OP to have his nice thread dragged down by this.

PS Obviously I'll be called a hater because I don't share Avilo's opinion and as such my opinion doesn't matter to him, but well. Don't care.

TBH when I was searching how to battle against mech in PvT I found tons of information from Lyyna and his/hers(?) threads. The only thing I know about avilo is that he's a whiny player. Therefore I hope avilo will be left from these articles and replaced by Lyyna(I hope I'm writing your nick correctly).

Lyyna, thanks for all the nightmares you gave me with Mech it happen

Also thanks for this article, which brought this nightmares back to my mind
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

I think your argument is quite fair. Those type of comments are unnecessary, and it creates a bad impression if you act as if you are entitled to something.

Hello everyone! Some have been asking after the part two of this article and I promise that you will be seeing it on TL. The issue is that there is a lot to do right now with school etc. and I have just not had the time to do a high quality write up, and I most certainly do not want to leave you with a draft of some rushed garbage. In early June I will no longer have school to worry about and I will dedicate my entire time to e-sport, which will result in me having time to write several of these articles a week. If you have any suggestions for other topics that you would like to see interviews or articles about, please leave them here or to sciicasts@gmail.com and I will start a draft for them as soon as possible.

Once again, I apologize for the part two not coming out quickly.
