2023 Playoff Avatars

[LightningStrikes]

I’ll add the mandatory “flipping the switch” suggestion.

That's a good one. We gotta keep the traditions going here

For a quick second I thought that was Clark Gable

I'm getting Andrew Ryan or Howard Hughes.

Had a thought this morning. Wouldn't it be faster to just do a poll on whether or not we're doing wrestling avis? Otherwise "Here we go again" in a 30 year theme works like when Puppa's back would act up on him or Espo made another crazy trade or another 100 point season by Kuch

Who’s even able and willing to do them?

Whoever is willing to put the effort in has a huge say in what the theme actually is.

Lol yeah I think I singlehandedly decided the last 3 themes by being the only one to actually put together some test gifs. I will try to do something soon I'm a bit busy and tired at the moment.

This is like begging a parent to do something just for them to insert adulthood and say I'm too tired.... then the parent sees the disappointment they brought their child, only to give in and do what is right, by making the avatars.

Thanks dad

Where is Catalyst/Hypnotoad when you need him? I know he took off because we were having success and it was a sort of superstition but I know he can do it

just all have ruh roh's

I was ready to kill for some ruh roh in like 2018

 

[Wester]

f*** em picks theme?

Player we traded for with compensation, or bust first round player we selected -> f*** em picks

Random dumb idea: Out of gas

Can play off this Seinfeld episode where Kramer goes for a test drive and sees how far the car can last with the gas level on empty

Unfortunately we can’t add fart noises (gas heh) to avatars. Would summarize the team’s performance perfectly.

Edit:
Or balloons… Wait, hear me out.
First frame: big balloon, say, Vasi with Cup and Vezina.
Second frame: shriveled balloon, Vasi beach ball meme.
Third frame: Bolts/SCF logo - “out of gas”
Etc.

Wrestling theme:


One on one with Lightning instead of Undertaker

Flipping the switch should work pretty well with animated gifs. Have them in the dark, a switch getting flipped, the comedic reveal, then the unifying playoff logo.

 

[Stammertime91]

Flip the switch

5 picks thrown to the Nashville logo
Farmer Fran comes back
1G 1KO 1 Injury
Switch goes off

 

[JoVel]

Who's going to want to put the effort to make a couple dozen avatars for a playoff run that lasts 7 days anyway?

 

[These Are The Days]

This may be the most soul crushing defeat of my dreams yet. Well done boys

I'm kinda digging this. Seems to be the most flexible concept. I already have an idea of what to whip up.

 

[VinikToWinIt]

What about a self-deprecating lightswitch?

Switch flips on

"Lightning 3-7 last 10 games"

*dracula/random Lightning player hissing at light*

#FlipTheSwitch
Switch off

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Just give me a tombstone with the Lightning logo on it.

 

[Master P]

I'd love to have this

Lead into this gif of Coop edited to show him tossing money at a ref.

Maybe we could do something where we use this format and make avatars of calls that leaf fans or another fanbase have always cried about?

 

[These Are The Days]

You people don't have the courage for wrestling avis

 

[These Are The Days]

You all just made the list
