	syfChadMann:	Ladder doesn't count. I'm 100% vs Avilo on ladder, but he's much better than me.
	syfRize:	i'm 100% vs PuCK :D
	Stallion:	im 100% vs all ladder this season :P

[Frustration]

Winning rate vs Destiny, Kingkong. HuK yet you go 1-6 in your group at acl and are ****** cocky as shit, these players Kingkong Huk and Destiny are way better then the players that were in that group and have had tonnes of amazing results, winning ladder vs these guys doesnt mean shit go win and do well in a tournament, being cocky in this scene will not help you at all, look where it got me nowhere if i was you i would stop being cocky and being a idiot and change before you turn out worse then me.

"have fun paying your own way to melbourne, thanks for the spot", i can already sense the douchebaggery and arrogance lol. Looks like this guy isnt getting good any time soon. Not with that attitude anyway.

[DynSL_Dragonite]

#soundwave. cant really let a statement like that go unanswered. ehh maybe he does have a point being abit cocky. but then hey im incredibly happy with how things are turning out right now, so maybe im abit overzealous. hopefully you guys can understand that and let some of the more over eager comments slide ^_-

From what I know of Dynasty being an arrogant douchebag appears to be at least 75% of the criteria of joining. I'm surprised Dynasty aren't expecting results from him before they fork out money to send him to places. He doesn't have anything under his belt (as frustration said, albeit crudely, he bombed at ACL sydney). What a strangely run organisation.

Hopefully he doesn't go fullblown foolmetal on us and humbles up. Sad seeing all these kids being destroyed by their egos instead of focusing on improving and playing the game.

[syfIce]

Ok lets clear a few things up
1. we arnt flying Sam to melbourne he was already going
2. Sam is newish to the scene and is greeted with that how do you expect him to react.

Please lets clear up what you just said

At Acl sydney earlier this year Dragonite was a asshole to most players at the lan and also said he could easily beat Kingkong and many other good players and was very cocky for no reason at all, since it was his first lan you would expect him to be more polite and understanding that he should not do well.

He will be greeted like shit because he has allready made a bad name for himself, and your comments on his joining Dyns post was just horrific and made him look even worse

I talked with him a fair bit. Nice enough guy, was very confident in his chances vrs anyone, but that's not a bad thing. First live event, probably was a bit of a reality check to the skill level of his peers (also considering there was no Petraeus, iaguz, PiG, EnDerr, Blysk, Demilove). I could be wrong, but highly doubt he was an asshole to most people.

Good luck to both Dragonite and Dynasty. Hope to see some results on the board soon.

[Seffy]

Holy shit this guy's definitely a great fit for DynSL! 10/10 sickest pickup.

Didn't even think it was that arrogant to list people he's beaten on ladder, it's something akin to listing tournaments you've done well in, only he hasn't done well in any tournaments so he has to list ladder wins.

Great to see frustration is talking shit again, so glad he's making it certain that no one will ever want to send him to any events.

listing people youve beaten on ladder or listing tournaments youve done well in, is a sign of arrogance lol. Its pointless boasting done in a desperate attempt to gain peoples attention, admiration and respect. The humble wouldn't even need to say anything, and if they are good, people will naturally notice them and give them their respect.

Good thing this was his portion of the post then. If you have a problem with how Ice hyped him up take it up with Ice don't just shit talk the new guy.

It's literally an announcement thread for the player. what do you want them to right?

"Here's dragonite, he did shit at his first lan and he doesn't look like he'll be winning anything soon, we picked him up as a joke and we hope you guys laugh at him as much as we do!"

No ******* idea why people are getting so angry about this.

wow frustration thats not true at all. i tried to be as curious as possible, i approached both crimson and mightykiwi both people i have played on ladder and wanted to meet in person in a positive light. i chatted to you and conveyed what i thought to be excitement and enjoyment at the prospect of being able to play you potentially at some point later on in the event. my post was in retaliation to your horrendous comments on a otherwise until then peaceful post. at the event u seemed to be happy as well and we chatted to what i thought was a decent conversation which shocked me greatly as i had seen how you behaved online, and i knew almost nobody at the event, i helped out prior to the event hoping to find some more players i could associate with and did manage to find afew people who i am sharing accomodation with this time at acl melbourn, so im pretty sure they dont think im an asshole. outside of that i didnt really meet anyone else at the tourny. so im at a lack of understanding as to what u mean as to " an asshole to most players at the lan" since i am still to meet most of them properly.

Im hyping a new signing. We need hype everyone knows we arnt in the best position players wise. And yes sometimes i word things wrong never the less we have faith that Dragonite will provide results. Mind you we had faith in you too

[syfMightyKiwi]

I played Dragonite twice ( i think ) over the ACL syd weekend. At no point did i find that he conducted himself in a rude/bad way. He seemed like a pleasant fellow, though i do agree he did seem to be a bit optimistic about who he could beat and was worried about. That's fine though, he's learning our scene. when i first got back to New Zealand after living in the US i knew nothing and rolled up to a LAN thinking everyone was bad. Literally got shrekt 2-0 in my first match.

TLDR my opinion is that Dragonite is a friendly dude who is new to our scene, lets be friendly

[Eddie]

How can new fans follow Dragonite? Is he on twitter?

[RivaL]

lmfao you two dont seem to realise that im not calling Ice arrogant, i was using Frustrations statement as a reference to call Dragonite arrogant if this was what he was really like and said. It was also a response to Wallys statement of where he compared listing people youve beaten on ladder to listing tournaments youve done well in, saying it isnt arrogant when it is a sign of it.

Quote: and also said he could easily beat Kingkong and many other good players and was very cocky for no reason at all, since it was his first lan you would expect him to be more polite and understanding that he should not do well.

[Midnightsc2]

ah well good stuff Jamie it's another number to the team that wasn't there previously so really it's just a plus more then anything.
good luck to you dragonite and enjoy your time with the dyn boys.

[syfSoundwave]

Both sides have legitimate points, there are no bad guys here.

Welcome to the scene, hope over the next few weeks you find out more and learn about your standing in the scene. My prediction is you'll be a fair whack surprised to find out you're not even a Top 3 Protoss in SEA...unless you are, but I don't think you are. Let's find out, very exciting!

I'm going to try to be as offensive as possible. Well, just annoying really.

(BAHAHAHA "FULLMETAL" AND "PRO" WITHIN THE SAME BREATH. Omg.)

This thread is great, Wally is right over Rival...you are SUPPOSED TO HYPE UP YOUR PLAYER ESPECIALLY IF THEY ARE RELATIVELY NEW TO THE SCENE.

But rofl at his ostensible expectations at Sydney.

EDIT: @Rival - Ice is the only one who hypes him up by listing players wins etc., then Dragonite clears up an inconsistency pointed out by rize, which could not in any world be considered bragging...I do agree with you in practice, but Dragonite did not hype himself up in the way you appear to be claiming.

Hey man, welcome to SEA! Nice pickup by Dynsl

Don't let forum antics and sledging bother you at all. Just play well, and the rest will come.

Good luck at ACL Melbourne!

[syfChadMann]

Hey dragonite mate, welcome to the scene I hope you do well, SEA scene can do with more Protoss. I hope you sign up for some more of the weekly comps so we can see what you can do...

You seem confident in yourself, while that can be taken as arrogant, it's a good mentality for someone wanting to do well in competitive gaming. Just don't underestimate your opposition and train hard.

Good luck to you and Dynasty.

[syfChase]

are you idiots really making more dramaz out of an announcement thread

well done team

Anyway gratz on joining Dynasty and good luck at ACL Melb etc hope things work out
