Why?
This man got loads of world firsts, did amazing things in PvP, was in the top of starcraft 2, is a poker champion, wrote a book when he was 20, he was on our big brother for a short while, is doing scientific work, is opening a school for gamers and much much more.
If he did one of these, sure, feel free to hate. But all of 'em together and you have to admit he kinda deserves to brag about his skill. Even more so in his Athene persona, as his Chiren persona is pretty laid back and friendly.
And what even more people forget is that in the end he is Bachir Boumaaza, a guy from Antwerp who's half marrocan, and grew up in a pretty racist place.
What people are gonna do now is pick one of my examples and start focusing on that saying "he's not so good at that", look at the bigger picture. Look at the bigger man, Athene!
