I didn't mean that and I didn't say that it's scary. I am just saying you identify the player through it's avatar. So yeah that does something with you and that is different for each person and like you said "other than the effect you let them have on yourself" so you already suggested that people may have effect from it on themself if they let it.

The question isn't whether I (or BitchiBee) make decisions based on other players avatars; it is whether or not there are enough players who do make avatar-influenced decisions that choice of our own avatars will influence our win rate.

Here's a question: How would you play with a player on Stars whose avatar image was a white background with the numbers "28/20/2.3"?

The same way I would play any other 28/20/2.3.

This is wrong. The all-white avatar means he's going to run like God (think Heaven, Angels, etc.) You've got to adjust to that.
