PDA

View Full Version : Coby's Dad - Reality Check - Take on the Suddoths

Coby�s Dad take on the Sud1 and Sud2

BIG Bert, a pair of cocky twins, and a disabled kid � there�s definitely a bunch of jokes there, especially if you end up not liking them individually, as a pair, or as a team.

Someone said on the forum, if Coby�s dad says they are okay, than I will give them a chance � can�t remember exactly what was said. As the Suddoths said in their live stream interview with Mr. P, they regret putting the APG video on YouTube. They hold with defending themselves but all-in-all, my take on this WHOLE game is that it is about skill, teamwork, competition, and yes, and confidence.

My experience playing competitive sports/gaming at the highest level, you have to be �extremely confident�. In my experience there were definitely some competitors that were way over confident - but that obviously worked for them. Becoming a part of the MLG arena and watching amateurs and pros, there is a crap load of trash talking! I know ALL you gamers mute your opponents and �occasionally� trash talk their playing skills to death � come on, you know it�s true! Even little, no muscle, Coby talks some serious trash from his gaming room � if gamers knew what he said about them in their face, they may want to consider squashing him! LOL (To me it is all quite funny � part of the fun and games for sure)

Perhaps you don�t YouTube it but the confidence and trash talk definitely appears to be a part of the game � as with other games and sports. I heard the aPG video, and yes, some heavy trash talking was going down. But hey, if anyone was seriously that offended, they could have just dropped from the party. Just the fact that the trash talking went on FOREVER, tells me that there was some entertainment factor in it for everyone.

No doubt, the Suds love the attention. They also show a definite passion for the sport of competitive gaming, especially Halo. For them to put themselves out there on YouTube, whether it�s about their dad, trash talking, rapping, or instructional videos, they obviously realize that they are going to get both positive and negative attention. In my own opinion and experience around them, they are FAR from being true assholes. Sure, I totally understand from their past and possibly current cocky attitude that many of you will continue to think that they are rats. (Funny video by the way! LOL)

I think it�s totally okay for those on the TLN chat line to continue talking trash about the Suds � only fair that you trash talk them when they put themselves out there on YouTube, JTV, or where ever else. If they didn�t like the trash talk, they shouldn�t be exposing themselves. Just remember for all you haters, I am almost positive you trash talk other gamers just the same � you just mute them out though! I know Coby does! :op

Halo is a great game and ALL of you make up a huge community that makes Coby�s life soooo much better. Thanks for the continued support and cut the Suds a little slack!!! Or not� :o)

Coby�s Dad

Great Post. I really don't have an opinoin on the Suddoth twins, but I'm glad they are putting their name out there.They should start talking more trash at the lan. It would really boost the team's self confidence and give them a chance to win a series. The last series was rough but the games started getting closer towards the end.

im giving the suds a chance because they seem to have matured a little. also im a big fan of bert and coby. who knows maybe the sudds can continue to show they are become more mature and everyone can eventually like them at sometime in the future.

Good read, but personal experiences with the Suddoths and friend's experiences leave me with the strong impression that they are assholes, and they are the model of what people do not want a "pro gamer" to be like.

But you made some good points.

I think a public apology to aPG will go a long way. Trash talk or not and regardless of whether or not they have apologized to him in person, what they said was uncalled for and deserves for something major to happen before I'll forgive and forget.

KRILLIN - I understand - that's up them. I know when friends/family go too far with me, I expect an apology.

Trash talk quote of this morning:

Totz came walking into the kitchen and shouted out that he had a dream last night, owning Coby in today's series. Coby replied, "Well that was just a dream!" LOL :)

Oops - I just posted on Cass' laptop!!! It looks like mine! LOL

That was a good read and I agree. Ive been lurking the MLG forums for a little over a year now and have always found the rat and extermination jokes very immature, and I definitely think they've matured alot since the APG incident.

Very good read, but I will not be giving any slack, even though I haven't spoken trash about the suddoths publicly my personal opinion of them is not very high. With that being said, Coby and Bert seem pretty cool but should try not to venture down the same path as the suddoths.

Agree, I believe a public apology would be nice, even though I believe APG would not tolerate them any how (imo). I saw that vid a while back and it was really low what they did. There is one thing to be trash talking, but if your trash talking players who are really expose to the community (or in general ) your limits should be set onto how your trash talking is said, and also consider your own public image as well as your opponents.

I myself thought that if they are truly trying to competed on a pro level status, they should also act more mature by now and give off the professional image MLG stands for. Off to a rough start, but only time will tell how the Suddoths are perceive in the gaming world

People change. Especially people their age. I refer you to the Tsquared MTV True Life. In any case, if you can't give them a chance after reading what Ken has to say, then you're just being stubborn and unreasonable.

And how many years was it before T2 started getting the kind of respect he does now? It isn't going to happen overnight.

I understand, and there is plenty of reasons to dislike the suds right now. However, I believe the closed-mindedness of a lot of people is astounding. I am personally in the business of forgiveness, but I guess that's a Christian thing. (Not trying to start, and will not partake in any kind of religious debate here.)

Well, like you said, there are plenty of reasons to dislike them and I do. I think Coby's Dad is in a position where he has to see the positives in them because his son is on their team. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one. But you can still come over for dinner if you want. :)
