Though much of it is created by overexaggerated media to create drama and fueling opinons for those finding it hard to have one, and trying to act like this is just how it is, or just reflecting peoples opinions. nor does it leave any room for moving on for any.On January 22 2015 12:25 Blargh wrote: On January 22 2015 11:49 Dracolich70 wrote: On January 22 2015 11:40 Jett.Jack.Alvir wrote: If you'd hate to read an article of Pacman Jones ,about his strip club adventures, you must absolutely loathe it being a verdict of how one should perceive his persona, whether or not you agree with it. It is trashtalk. Much like this article. It is unprofessional.Dracolich70, we have different views on how the media (i.e. TL) should develop articles, and those views differ greatly. Whether it is newsworthy or tabloid trash is debatable but I don't want to get into a big debate over the merits of this article, because it would end up no where. I do understand your objection, and to a certain degree you are correct. I would hate to read an article on ESPN about Pacman Jones and his adventures in strip clubs, but I would love to read about his neck injury. However, I don't think this article is trashy, but at least I understand how you feel. Naniwa, unlike Brock is not here to sell an (imaginary) image, but to compete. He didn't agree to be hero/villain, and let that be a selling point to the game/news site. Woah bro, the article is stating that Naniwa is both a player and a badass motherfucker who gives less than two shits about his image and would rather tweet some mildly offensive stuff instead. The esports scene is not just about what players play, but also about the players themselves. I wouldn't say that the article was too extremely opinion-based. It was a pretty solid objective overview of Naniwa, as a person and player. I can understand one not caring for those types of articles and only wanting to see articles pertaining to Starcraft material exclusively, though. Unfortunately, that is not all TL cares about, and that's not all SC2 fans care about, either. There are some parts of the article that make some assumptions; However, those assumptions are pretty logical. As I said in my initial post, "It must be desperate times for Starcraft, if the hero/villain tag has to be placed on a player", Or as Waxangel says it, "good work stuchiu, keeping SC2 alive". Well, I will leave it, realizing what it has become. Hope it doesn´t spread to the Dota 2 and HS section. Have fun. Implying tagging individuals in sports as hero/villain is somehow connected to the success/popularity of said sport? It's a common trope that's used in thousands of news sites for all kinds of sports, like it or not. | ||

The fact that he's more talented than everyone here makes it all the more enjoyable. I think if he wasn't a talented player, he'd be the equivalent of Avilo... | ||
