It’s a known fact that in any competitive online game, if you win a match you’re going to be called a hacker at some point. It’s a crutch for some, shifting the burden of the loss off of them. It wasn’t their fault, after all: the playing field wasn’t level.
But most accusations of hacking are unfounded rage. And when you consistently get called a hacker, this might be one of the best ways to respond.
Meet two StarCraft 2 players. One’s called Jason Papadimitrios, a Canadian Terran player otherwise known as Juggernaut. The other is David Blowe, an American Terran player otherwise known as avilo.
Blowe has a bit of a history for, well, raging. It’s not unfair to say he’s more known for his complaints about the balance of his game and his on-stream tirades than his tournament record. And when it comes to Papadimitrios, the American becomes particularly irate.
Blowe has allegedly been calling his Canadian counterpart a hacker for two years. But thanks to some exceptionally good editing from an avid supporter, Papadimitrios has replied in the best possible fashion.
That’s the danger of streaming sometimes: you get called out. And for what it’s worth, Blowe isn’t backing down.
@avilosc2 The guy who made the video isn’t even on cloudM, he also doesn’t play SC2 LOL

@avilosc2 You clearly don’t know that because you just said “let’s ignore that they hack in other games too”

Haha that was gold. The other guy just can’t cop the fact he has obvious strats/deficiencies and is being beaten on them.
avilo is just a whinger. He’s rather infamous in the SC2 community for his whining and raging, and for his unending obsession with playing a boring as batshit mech style in every matchup (except for when he attempts a proxy, like the second game in that video).
What a yawn fest!!
David Blowe is appropriately named, considering how hard he blows.
