Sometimes the weight of great fluff is to much to carry, some pixels are crushed under its weight and cannot carry such a burden. They cannot rise up to greatness and spit the bit and stink up the joint with all the pressure.
Balatu the Dark Elf dirty boot is one such player and he could not live up to the fluff. He was destined for greatness but alas he just could not handle it. A Chaos Dorf smacked him hard and Balatu did not have the intestinal fortitude to live, he just gave up and curled up into the fetal position and died.
After the
match the reporters caught up with
Boz to get his thoughts on the passing of Balatu.
"Man that guy was a chump, what in da heck was I thinking? I must have been seriously drunk when I thought that guy had the makings of a legend."
So the lesson of today is that be careful with your fluff...it can get your pixels KILLED.
********************************
Here is the fluff which Balatu was based on, you decide if it was lame or great fluff, I will let the reader decide.
