The infamous Pete Weber quote applies to this man. Hate him or love him, you all watched, read, responded, trolled, made a sexual meme of his bald head. Whatever you did, you engaged. Because, let’s admit it, in his own weird, ridiculous, annoying, cringe way, Panther ignites this community.

As some of you all saw during the three ring spectacle known as “The Decision,” Panther has decided to take his “talents” to The Strokers. He felt with his new schedule, it’s best to be a part time / rotational player as well as lend a helping hand to his old teammate and friend of 21 years, LOOSE.

So what does this mean game wise? Panther made the above statement 5 months ago and now we get to see it in action. He brings a much needed experienced mind to the team. A lisping and stuttering IGL. Strats from 2005 that no longer work. And another bald head to pair with Loose. Maybe they can share workout routines. We all saw that fat panther arm on stream.

But in all seriousness, panther does make this team instantly better. They were in need of an IGL, someone to help make adjustments mid game, someone who is anti-emo and all about the next round, not the last round. There’s a reason his former teammates miss him, even though some will not openly admit it (Shell). He provides entertainment and is still an effective player. #17 on Doug’s top 20 list to be exact.

Panther will make his Strokers debut in week 5. As for the rest of the community, if you are not panthers teammate, please continue to hate him. Thank you for your time on this matter.
