Bangfish talks about SingSing [translated]

**Preface: this is posted on a korean website called dcinside.com where everyone who writes here curses a lot. And this post is actually from January, so some things might be outdated. And since he's talking to the few handful players of Dota2 in Korea, some or most of things he talks about may be things that you already know. There are two posts that he wrote, and I'll translate the second one later if any of you are interested. I just thought it was interesting to see Bangfish talk about Sing (since he's in Sing's stream stack a lot but we never really get to know who he is)**

I've been reading all of you talking about SingSing like, "SingSing doesn't follow orders," "SingSing doesn't try hard enough," "He just does whatever the fuck he wants," and "He could only play a handful of heroes that he's good at," and I just got fed up with you all. I'm gonna tell you some facts that I know of.

Even though I am friends with SingSing, I will try to do my best to talk about his past, present, and future as objectively as possible.

First of all, SingSing wasn't that well known in HoN scene. He's more like an early beta tester who somehow was able to receive an early Dota 2 Beta key and switch over.

He was very interested in streaming from early on. He started streaming his game play with Dota 2. Just think of him as one of the OG Dota2 streamers.

As he became the king of stream, and he could make a good living from ad revenues from tens of thousands of viewers, he had a deep desire to be a professional player. That's why he went from team to team like Mouzsport, GD Studio B-team, Team Zero, and Qbad Disbandas.

Edit: You think only the Korean oldies are the only ones who build a fucking Great Wall of China and shun the newbs? This is universal all across the world.

It's even worse in the pro scene. In order for those players who *weren't* pros in the DotA Allstars days to succeed, they need to basically suck up to the old gamers who's been there since DotA1 days. Well, I, being a stream whore as myself, was able to catch something: Unlike his usual self, SingSing was very quiet and submissive to Puppey. That's when I realized that the pro scene is no different.

And then he got noticed by EternalEnvy. You can read up more about this on my blog: http://bangfish.tistory.com/1

Anyhow, if I make a list of what people who played with SingSing say:

* Wagamama: He's very serious
* Envy: His stream is his alter ego. He's a tryhard. No one shows up to practice on time like him, and I've never met anyone as passionate about the game besides myself.
* Aui2000: He knows when to be serious
* SexyBamboe: He's a pussy

What people talk about in the interviews or other broadcast is that the SingSing persona you see on his stream is very different from his actual self. You can see that, even though he acts like a psycho in his stream, when it comes to his professionalism, he's a whole different person. He listens and does what the team tells him to do like a loyal doggy. You can tell how his playstyle and hero pool changed after he joined C9. (I personally was shocked how he changed his playstyle)

Then what's wrong with SingSing?

I'll talk about this in the next post.
