The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly (Mexican)

You will never ever hear me say that someone is the "best" or "top." The reason why is because when you do that you are always indirectly putting many other people down. I even avoid phrases like "very good." Usually the best you will see me say about someone is that they are "good."

That's not an insult. It's just something I do in order to not offend other people who may also be "good."

You have not ever nor will you ever see me saying something like "Happyminti is better than Ming." All you will see me say is that I think they are both good or in this case I might even say very good.

The “very top shaman” Oozo mentioned, Dorain challenged me on PTR - Ming

Now, English is not Ming's first language (is it?) so maybe it's an honest mistake. But putting that "very top shaman" in quotation marks seems to imply that is something I said. But, I didn't. For the reasons mentioned above I would never say something like that. If you look down in my commentary about the Oozo Lives movie you will see me say that Dorain is good. There is that word "good" again!

Dorain came up recently because he is a better shaman on paper than the shaman that Neilyo fought in his movie. Just as GC is a better shaman than Dorain on paper. Notice how Ming conveniently overlooked resilience, armor, and a few other stats on his front page. Dorain is still building his gear set.

From what I’ve heard GeeCee is perhaps the most hardcore shaman to ever hit test server. He swaps to full tier 5 then trinkets, buffs earthshield, drops totems, goes back to full gladiator, drinks, ghostwolfs, and then starts the duel. This is to say that GeeCee takes every single possible advantage in order to win and from what I have seen he was very successful. - Happyminti

Dorain does none of this. He doesn't preplace totems or start in ghostwolf. He basically gives the rogue the opener as if it was regular PvP instead of a duel letting the rogue have some of his advantage back. That's not to say that Dorain is better than GC. But, these are things that you really have to take into account.

Dorain is a good shaman, but more importantly he is a good person. The only reason he is getting shown up on Ming's blog is to get at me. And, for that I'm sorry.

In fact, I'm going to go ahead and log-in right now to see if I can apologize to him in person.

P.S. Good job on splitting the series against a tough opponent, Dorain.
