I think the progression of this mans personality on stream has shown the true level of maturity on the internet especially Twitch.tv. The kind of people that get attention on these platforms for years is mind blowing. I mean tyler1 has shown the depths of his abilities and to me they are not impressive enough to keep flattering such a blown out of proportion egomaniac.
I mean I might just be talking out of my ass but when I saw t1 on league tournaments casting I thought for sure he was going to stay motivated, stay positive and strive for greatness in 2019. Possibly maybe even a TSM revival? (I guess people really don't respect Andy) because America needs it, video games, need it. I need it as someone that aspired towards being a better player because of him.
I was watching erobb the other day and him and tyler were playing runescape and sure I guess it was "enjoyable" (not really it kinda reminded me how old I am cause I played runescape classic not runescape 2) and one comment by Tyler really just set off this wave of emotions from me. He roasted some kid in chat who was being toxic and said something like "I make more than 500k a year easily." and that's when I realized, wow does my life suck.
That's when I also realized that people who think they have achieved the goal in life by being sustainable financially are just as big of a problem as local and government corruption. Why did we give this dude money? Is all I'm saying. He's still toxic as fuck and completely uninteresting as a "personality figure" in the game that made him famous. Sure the game is possibly broken, or possibly unbalanced, but as someone who never really made it far into the ranks in any current game but was relevantly decent at video games in the past, I really don't aspire to be anything like the people in higher ranks in any game. So as a content creator, or an influencer you have to be aware of your ability to impact things by your beliefs and how you stand by them.
This isn't fair, after League unbanned him when I have said far less worse things in chat and never been unbanned and then being INVITED to cast a professional game he trash talks them. This is the kind of person you call entertaining?
