So I'm an Overwatch player, but I have a few hundred hours in Rivals, and still follow a lot of streamer drama. Flats has a weird reputation, that he doesn't deserve. I believe he deserved it for a bit, but then it stuck around. He used to be a super PMA, educational streamer. He was great, he was easily one of the best OW streamers, but smaller than the titans of OW. But with OW2, he grew a lot, but, he also started to get very cynical of the game, but continued to play it. It's fine to get burnt out of a game, especially launch OW2. But he forced himself to keep playing, and he became THE streamer complaining about everything. Which started this reputation for him. But now, he has been a lot better, but the constant criticism of him still follows him. I feel bad for him, because he is a good guy, a good streamer, and knows games well enough to have good critiques of the game. Then we have people dog piling him, because he said the extremely common saying of "I don't get paid enough for this". Or people complaining that he didn't want to commentate a tournament, so he gave a "I'm not interested" price, and then they guy "exposed Flats" for that. I feel bad for Flats, he doesn't deserve a fraction of the criticism he's currently getting
