Overall he really has so many leaks he wont be profitable in 100rs 1ks for a long long time.

the last few months i have deviated alot from some of my basic strategies and i havent felt like ive played up to my potential for a variety of reasons... i feel your quote here is super general and of course i do mix up alot of these points you made, but as for opening 2.2x alot of my monsters, it is true i have been doing this almost exclusively, and even the most knowledgeable thinking players, just like yourself get trapped and stack off to me, many times daily, as you do regularily to me..
Its just been soo ridiculously effective for me and profitable it is incredibly hard to deviate from some of these strategies. also, besides opening monsters small, in all my 100s+ mtts, my strategies are deviated and randomized very much more than a 3reb or 20r mtt...
Also, its scary how often i open fold ajo or 4s from ep, basically re-iterating my super nit image you have of me.. although thats what i want you to think i guess...
oh also, hands like Ako-s, 10s, JJ or aqo-s, i usually open to 3.2x or 3.5x, 2.99x or whatever, ..... so my minraise / 2.2x open raise is not as polarized as you claim it to be.
Not to mention my 3bet sizes are all over the place from tiny to 6-8x the open.. and imo its very hard for even a world class thinking player to narrow my range in these situations, giving them less info, for them to make the absolute optimal play vs me in this situation...
Also, my flop cbet frequency is not necessarily 100% when i open a pot and get flatted, as you claim i hate
... not to mention my flop play, or subsequent street betting patterns or 3bet frequencies are all randomized/ deviated from many standard lines some players seem to take. Since you are such an expert on the details of my online game, you would know that i can play some hands super aggro, and also of course very passive, and every gear in between, which i feel i have in my game...
As for some of my 5.5-11bb strategies, at mid to late stages of mtts, i am actually quite happy with my shortstack game tbh. I feel this is 1 of my strengths, and with a little more development and tweaking, i believe i can become one of the best short stack mtt players online, and i truly believe that, some of my theories here are really well thought out and optimal strategies, for my long term equity in reference to short stack play mid-late stages....
Not all of us randomly shove 7-15bb with j7o, or 10 6 o or 85o, or 96o, 103o as you do day in and day out, or 3b allin at big fts on the utg CL w KJo and drill a runner runner sr8, even though you had a ridiculously bad image there.. Some of us are actually searching for the best +ev situations when it comes to effective shortstack play, we obviously differ on strategies in this subject... Personally I don't really think you should give any short stack advice, especially criticizing other peoples tenancies considering what some of yours are, but that just my opinion....
oh Btw Shaun , i thought you really outplayed me at that final table of the 50-6m, you seemed to be very proud of your play in that tourny, with the thread you started about that 1 tourny. With 4 players left, i thought my 4bet allin on the river with trip 10s vs your trip 10s with 1 better kicker than me was just an awful shove. As you can admit, that is something i almost never do, especially for value, and i will admit you tilted me badly, mostly by your chat. This may sound like an excuse, but its true, it was like 10pm or later at that point and i remember not eating at all that day and felt i played like sh it, not to mention being on complete monkey tilt...
Also, earlier in that tourny, your 3bet with the j8o, vs my KQo was very wp, when the A 10 rag flop went check, check, and brick on turn, i thought your turn lead was real nice, and if you remember i tanked there for like a full minute b4 folding, and i wanted to shove so fn badly but didnt pull the trigger... of course as you berated me endlessly after that hand, my lack of tilt management on that day left alot to be desired imo... neways i got my revenge when you bluffed off your whole stack to me for the 1st Pca seat i won, so that was sweet... neways wp 50-6m imo.... ez on the short stack play criticism also.....
