ShoX — That’s almost an entire page of coverage below this and I can’t stand it any longer, so here’s a question for you;
Loading ...My view (for anyone that actually cares) is currently: No. But that’s not to say that the legendary Fisshu isn’t capable of far more than he’s currently demonstrating. Cookye is enjoying something of a personal renaissance to his devastating dignitas form but is he really *that* much better than JoeyC? I don’t think so.
The rumor is that he’s back on the pre-game weed which would certainly offer some kind of explanation as to why he isn’t at his best.
Glimpses of his previous incredible form are evident in the games that I’ve spectated it’s just sad that they are out weighed 5 to 1 by moments of being decidedly clumsy or average.
If you were numlocked, what would you do?

wait i get it
- # - nice! +7I tried to make it obvious for you
- # - nice! +0At least the useless and uncalled for topic was disguised with a rich text and an attempt to maybe reach for more! wait…
Im waiting for a “is extremer preforming well enough?” topic, now
- # - nice! +7Get this shit off the front page.
- # - nice! +7Couldn’t agree more! I just wish we could get back to some slightly interesting / engaging posts. VanillaTV output shouldn’t be outnumbering gossip / speculation / analysis posts 10/1.I had limited time so picked something I could quickly write.
I, on the contrary, loved this little piece. Finally, something that doesn’t make sense!
As far as the topic goes, I wouldn’t know, aside from it being unfair to anyone to be compared against Cookye. No, really – anyone.
Glad this was published, not because what the content is about just purely on the fact that it got you aka the audience to post n reply, all we’ve had is match posts the past few weeks.
No one putting the effort in to do a interesting article yet we have lots of critique’s qq’ing and moaning about things not right, liking the style Shox I’d call this a ‘dirty article’ :D passes the rules of posting an article yet stirring the pot to maybe hint to others to pull their fingers out again (if they have ever)
Cheers

- # - nice! +7Believe it or not, I fully endorse articles such as these. They remind me of a more vibrant time in EU TF2’s history when writers such as Jimmybreeze and DJC (I *think* he was tf2street, don’t tell anyone) cared not for any metaphorical boundaries and cut down players based on their attitudes and/or performances. You’ve been a little lazy here Shox, and I can’t help but feel that a certain geordie has played a part in this article being pushed to be made public because of his disagreement with my habitual smoking habits. It’s ok though, I can take criticism from this scene because I regard everyone in it as a friend.
I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not playing at my peak (I voted no in the poll), I’m far from it, and I won’t bore you all with the excuses and ‘mitigating circumstances’ as to why I’m not top fragging for infused, but.. infact.. na fuck it, I WILL!!. COOKYE GETS ALL THE HEALS, CAP POINTS, AND STEALS MY FRAGS – IT’S A CONSPIRACY TO MAKE ME LOOK BAD, DON’T TRUST ANYONE!!!! DON’T LET HIS FINNISH CHARM FOOL YOU! THIS IS COOKYE PROPAGANDA.
A little lazy? :D
I’m just genuinely sick of there being bugger all of interest (beyond cast info) to read on here and wanted to spark a bit of interest in the site.
I had a quick look over your ETF2L screen shots and read through a TF2Logs entry that Byte (iirc) posted a while back but figured that it’d be less interactive if I gave hard evidence one way or another. It would have been less of a debate and more of a personal attack which definitely isn’t my intention (Although when I ask the same question about Mike next week I might act differently ;)).
Dunc had no influence on my reasons for writing it, you’ve been one of the most casted players / teams right now, had it been a non-stop TCMvsEpsilon-fest I’d have posted about someone else.
I asked for his opinion on my writing it and he discouraged me if anything. He’s more than capable of being a controversial a cunt without my help that’s for damn certain.
I appreciate the response!

15:38 – infs JoeyC: oh god..
more propaganda… cookye truly knows no boundaries. Disgusting.
But for reals.
Fisshus’s form has been a inconsistent, probably due to coming back from inactivity and not wanting to play too much. Like in the Excello Zomie cup final vs Epsilon he played like a superstar doing so much work for his team. Then he has days where he bottom damages/frags and throws away his life a lot.
On his day he is better than Greg was, and even if he can’t do it as often as Greg if he can pull out the stops in the big games who cares if he sucks vs scrubs. it’s not like Infused are short of players to pick up the slack damage wise.
- # - nice! +6He is still the prettiest of infused.
tonppa gape
- # - nice! +7I don’t think he’s been playing close to his best, but why does he when his scout partner is cookye
