One of the great nicknames in Australian chess is attached to David Flude. This very active CC player and theorist, and over the board player as well, was christened "The Flavoured Dude" sometime in the past. Whether this reflects his playing style in the way that "Monosol" seems to describe Stephen Solomon's style, I cannot say. Nonetheless there is an attacking flavour to David's game, as the following win in the Australia v Finland Friendly demonstrates.

wtf
Shaun,
I put this game up on OzChess as Fludey is a bit of a legend in Victorian chess circles. I can't say I understood the attack though, it looked losing to me. Anyway, here is a link to the game:
Flude vs Salo 1-0
