he flamed me in paladins 10 mans once and I went from dia4 to grandmasters and joined a "t3" team

Imagine what happens when he coaches you every day

we still gotta get that one to 1k upvotes

Yes and no
No it isnt a "good" gpu anymore and you will run into bottlenecks along the line

But its absolutely fine especially for your use cases
Main issues youll have is if you go for the big current triple A games, play more recent games at higher resolutions/frame rates or do "real" workstation tasks (realistically your job should supply you with a server to remote into for those anyways though)

My own gaming pc went from a 3080 -> 2070 Super -> 1080Ti as I kept gutting it for parts, so older hardware is MORE than sufficient for most games imo

Prime Benny is back, wtf
Bro retires to coach and then drops this just for fun

Unironically I also think NRG's core identity does far better into Furia than PRX's
NRG have enough util to (in theory) clear the scopes, whereas PRX need to use bodies/tempo to overwhelm them

So Furia should have a decent advantage
Now time to watch PRX do the prx thing and just win regardless, just cause they can

Was getting his greencard iirc, so couldnt attend

Thats just the rule of most t2 leagues though
The orgs own the spot

We've had issues with that before (e.g. https://www.vlr.gg/188548/angry-titans-vs-laterious-challengers-league-dach-evolution-split-2-r7 being FF because Laterious is an org that never existed and the owner was just scamming everyone - resulting in its removal with the players losing their slot)

Stability > players unfortunately
But ROUGH when it happens

I aint spending 5 minutes rewriting that
(and dont have a valo specific one saved)

Issues are pretty straight forward.

and

dogshit map pool and shaky comps

"This TL is fantastic, they just need to work on communication, aim, map awareness, crosshair placement, eco management, pistol aim, awp flicks, grenade spots, pop flashes, positioning, bomb plant positions, retake ability, spray, and getting kills."

I mean this respectfully, but a smokes who you have to pick comfort picks for (aka just omen for wayne) just cant be THAT high up on your picks
He's a talent you need to develop

If you have a team thats willing to take up the extra burden then thats great (cause... clearly he knows how to shoot), but not every roster is in a position where you can spend the easiest role on developing a t2 player

Org is probably scared af of the drama should they make any significant change
Their fans been rabid whenever any roster move happens

I agree a rebuild would be beneficial though, instead of cycling the 5th player (and hoping he somehow fixes all their issues)

ye ig, its not only the coaches since just... well nothing is working to the level it should

it is up to the coaching staff to find a solution though, so saying its their responsibility is fair imo (and/or GM if coaching staff isnt allowed to touch the core 4 players - should they feel theres a fundamental issue in the roster construction)

Aint gonna stop the meme though

ouch

CGN reclaiming their throne, ggs

General rule is that if it involves the US then its political
If it doesnt then the chance a mod that deems it political sees it is a lot lower

So play the odds (but given #4 you'd get nuked)

:o
Didnt know legija had these kinds of connections in dach

that'd be amazing
(but yea no clue, all the rumors are on x nowerdays, so gotta take your word)

the mysteries of cgn
no clue, but at least theyre replacing a t2 goat with a t2 goat

hope its cause a t1 team wanted him, but thats probably just wishful thinking

You have the technology in the events tab, so you already have them categorized
Just PLEASE add tiers to the matches tab instead of just outright removing t2 matches during international events

It makes no sense to remove t2 matches during times where t1 isnt even on yet

not owned
just sponsored

but still more than enough reason not to cheer for them given the current "climate"

Calm down there, emea was the 2nd best region in terms of average placements last year
Like we good atm

That being said pacific gets to shit talk everyone, cause they were in a league of their own

Dominant showing by SGE
Gonna be fun tomorrow

Eeeeh cuck2 is fun af this year
But they also arent playing "perfect valorant" anymore, since thats just shite this meta (and was last one too ngl)

Death Parade

it just majorly affects the quality of life for the players/staff allowed to do it

the important context is that RRQ got punished in the past for it, so seeing teams get away with it, while also seeing them blatantly cheat, is gotta be frustrating

they just played REALLY bad that game
to put it bluntly they got dragged into the mud and iluri couldn't get a read on the game
-> it felt like it was just firepower vs firepower and EP werent shooting to the level they usually do

Theyve been outplaying every team since then and getting results accordingly

Unironically the main takeaway should be that Stallions are really good individually and that you cant take them lightly, else they will just catch you off guard and upset you.

"alt", meaning Batu is a vlr regular?

Nah I wouldnt worry
T1 teams arent going into these matches with anything specific prepared
Theyre just using it as practice to prepare for the next split

T2 teams got something to prove so youll see a lot more out of them

ULF will be fine ngl

unironically just forget that theres a double elim bracket
treat it like a swiss and just check vlr what the next matchup is gonna be

I had 3 paragraphs trying to convey how it works and I absolutely failed

xms at least does well against t2 players x.x

Brother....
losing is one thing, but looking (SIGNIFICANTLY) worse in terms of both calling AND individuals compared to a t2 team is a tad much

Not much time to fix this many issues... gl to them

vlr wanting Ange1 back is true character development

dont get tilted on behalf of the players lmao

"Fine. I'll do it myself."

Im on the 3rd option that boaster is the greatest of all time

But for aspas he'd just need to start making it further in tournaments on average. Like youve been the most sought after player in americas (heck even the world ngl) for years now. Show results.

And chron needs to now prove that he can consistently preform outside of fnatic.
GMB was a good team, but nowhere near the average results he achieved on fnatic. Keep up the level and prove that you were the x-factor.

theyre def able to punch upwards aim wise
pretty likely that we see them in a couple of the emea stages so gonna be interesting to see how they keep up once other teams start getting better

obviously not ideal, but I dig the idea of just going full firepower then
just leaning fully into the fact that other teams are gonna be slower to grow their systems

OH THEYRE COACHLESS

oml that explains so much xD I was going mad watching them yesterday and just wondering why they were SO puggy
ok but they good af for a coachless team then

Surely scheduling games to start 2 hours later than normal emea (which frequently goes past midnight) is a good idea
Fucking 4:45 am in Dubai

GGs to both teams for making it through this

nah just a divided country
tax on consumer products is rough due to high grocery prices
and politically we've always prioritized the industry over consumers, so theres push back on hard regulation vs the current ongoing efforts to have manufacturers "self regulate"

its pretty divided though so might happen eventually

its a current discussion topic so I am aware that we are slightly more regulated
but since we dont have a sugar tax and no hard regulation its purely self regulated (meaning its not)

its why if you compare our yearly sugar intake to our neighbors like italy and france... well we're looking like the US of europe compared to them
(And nah theres worse countries, but we're WAY too close for a country that normally regulates just about everything... except sugar)

Nah unfortunately German food is very similar in sugar levels (since we have a similar lack of regulation)

fair tbh
and explains why he was still owning everyone^^

Where tf you been?! Ucam needed your energy smh (at least b1sk was still farming)

swagzor remembered that he is in fact better

Def interesting to see how fokus' firepower holds up
That being said Pal is gonna make a statement here and crush them 26-0

+1
stat is just the most useful
linalg has some nice applications in random places, but yea Ive never directly used it outside of uni
And ana.... idek wtf Im meant to do with that shit

All im saying is Scream won 1 out of his first 2 maps
Sadhaak didnt win any

It aint complicated maths people!

its really not that thick of an accent....
