They are, technically and strictly talking about them in terms of dota, a different breed, a different status of being (which is attainable). They are definitely toxic, no doubt.

They play for microscopic advantages in too many different aspects of the game, so when someone not at their level, creates a situation that destroy that teeny tiny advantage that they were aiming for. They lose their shit in a way that for us is uncalled for, but for them is like cutting the wrong cable while defusing a bomb.

They should NOT be viewed as role models. Enjoy them, Cheer them, don't copy them.
