[@Average1212]

sportsman like......... Don't get me wrong I love this match and both pullers but yoshi was scummy AF, count how many times he tries to push todd off the back of the pad hoping it won't be noticed. Now don't get me wrong and think i'm against it, just be honest about it at the least. Don't go into comments and selectively shit pin pullers for how they pull then praise others for doing the same thing.

[@rfdiego777]

@@Average1212 I also noticed that, but personally what annoys me is the antics and the humiliation of the opponent. Yoshi was tricky, at some point Todd also tried the same, but the respect was evident and I think that's what resonates with many people
