MarxistShittalk and conflict is absolutely great for creating a narrative that forces the viewer to become invested in one competitor over another.
If rando's binds upset you maybe it gave you a reason to care about froyo moreso than you otherwise would have? That's why I was so willing to comment on it throughout the cast. When both teams are more or less unknown quantities (due to not streaming or posting much - of course b4nny is a BIG exception here) it's sometimes difficult for passive observers to really find a reason to care about the different competitors they're watching. Rando played the heel well.
I went into making this thread with a completely different mindset about BM. After reading this thread and seeing the very polarized opinions, this is by far the one I agree with the most, and the one that changed my mind. I know how much more I wanted Froyo to win when Rando started bind spamming. It did make me genuinely more interested in the match.
Didn't expect this thread to get this much attention. But I'm glad we got an actual discussion out of it, and my opinion definately did change.
Also,
-SalBRK. Sad to see a vet tf2 pro be such a dick to the entire Froyo team.
