how long was MIBR's old loss streak? I couldn't find it anywhere.

thanks, unfortunate, although ill still bet on SEN for undefeated

I'm looking into who will go 2-0 for my pickems in the toronto swiss.

Are the drawings for the round 2 matches of swiss stage random or is it a system

If its a system is my assumption that its the day one winners fight each other and the day 2 winners fight each other correct (because if so SEN are gonna go 2-0 they curbstomp mibr and wolves is in the nicest way possible not a good bet)

derke is a phantom main the 2 are inherently different ngl

im not just talkin about his clove (which is pretty damn good too)

all the transphobes were attracted to a trans person and didn't know how to process it first

they aint gonna talk shit to some1 they think is hot irl

ok so its really really really really hard to do something like that even if the api updates that much.

its also really expensive

Flor carried the losses back at kickoff, just because people have off days doesn't mean they are bad. Also she isn't even having that much of an off day. Also governor is doing pretty well to.

I challenge you: Name 2 EMEA players who are AVAILABLE, have tier one experience, and who put up the same or better numbers, and play those specific roles.

yeah sorry i didnt go detailed enough on that, replacement of govt workers could be the issue

customs is able to basically just say no they dont want to give visa

moist esports issues were completely resolved when the only change was the work shopify being involved

i dont think it would be an official ban i think it would be soemwhat arbitrary discrimination

also i dont doubt that the ban will stretch

bro is tryna set the new downvote record LMFAO

cough cough tiktok cough cough

if something happens riot COULD sue, executive orders aren't laws and the courts have already enforced that

love that we can all agree on this <3

FYI they can deny visas if a country isnt banned

this game is very, AS THEY WOULD PUT IT IM MAKING NO POLITICAL STATEMENTS, DEI

"DEI is going to be banned everywhere"

anyone here for valorant might just have visas denied regardless of country bans

1. LOL
2. I'd mention flor but unfortunately apeks is kinda in the same situation all over again (mostly her I was thinking of)
3. i did a different post on it but they could have visa issues over the fact that lgbt characters are in the game (gov't might just say fuck val over that)

completely agree with LATAM needing to host a big event, but as TheLegend27 has pointed out, its waaayyyy too late to change (this stuff is planned AT THE VERY LEAST 1 year in advance) it would take a host country starting a war for stuff to be changed at this point

also as SleepingSnorlax has brought up, for some identities the US isn't a safe place rn and it isn't getting better so i think it might be that we don't see events in the US next year

Not being political, simply stating possibilities here.

OP is right this list could cause some issues but tbch the list prob wont effect much.

The real issue is that because of major changes in the US gov rn the general employment of the govt (non partisan, non elected officials) lean significantly to one end of the political spectrum here.

My concerns (which I would have brought up here if I didn't think I would get banned, but with this being up I feel more comfortable) are that because of the fact that parts of the game itself go against the values of previously mentioned side of the political spectrum that gov't leans toward now, we may see discrimination in players and others being given visas to do esports.

This has been an issue in the past (politics weren't involved before though) in the case of teams like moist esports, who weren't taken seriously because of their name.

Boaster for igl

Oxy as duelist

Noia on sentinel

RieNs for initiator

chichoo for flex

how many women are playing in tier 2 i know flor is only in tier one and i also know SR Gold (GC roster) is in challengers (alongside SRB, former MxS)

me: dont embarrass urselves

transphobes: no fuck u

LMFAO

https://clips.twitch.tv/VenomousEagerChimpanzeeNerfRedBlaster-pHTYSXWwCKFmzmUz?tt_content=url&tt_medium=clips_api

OH HELL YEAH THAT GOES HARD (and so does the clip)

makin me proud to be trans absolute queen

and be nice in these comments, being rude is kinda embarrassing considering the very words its based around

edit: dont argue with the transphobes just downvote them, lets have some normal people discussion

as a trans person i have the headcanon that all transphobic men just got attracted to a trans woman at some point (vice versa for transphobic women), and didn't know how to process it, it makes them "feel gay" or something like that, so they misgender the person because they think that by denying the trans person's gender they will no logner be attracted to the person

tldr transphobic comments are fueled by a thought that trans people are hot

y is everything relating to a woman, GC, or anything like that immediately followed with people saying bad/making excuses for why these people are good

when i send a paragraph and ppl give a sentence response either completely misunderstanding what i wrote (maybe intentionally) to call me wrong or just prove that they read one sentence of what i wrote cause whatever point they make is proven wrong in my paragraph

like i have done more research than u i know that for a fact

so 2 points to end on

1. men please accept that in a population split into groups as large as 4 billion people almost any other large group (like esports players) should be able to be split in half just as well or there is an issue AKA in a large enough group women should make up about 50% or sexism issue, there doesn't need to be anything (and there isnt anything) that men are generally better than women at, and there doesnt need to be vice versa either so stop acting like gaming is for men and only men can be good

2. if you respond about the legitimacy of a claim then read through the entire thing first or you end up embarrassing yourself

and to those of you who are great people and fine and havent done anything wrong disregard this those of you who take offense know that this does matter to you

dude u responded to bro making a well thought post going through their thoughts on an important topic in detail with i say again significant thought clearly put into it

and admitted that u make a post in 20 seconds

in ur want to defend urself in relation to ur previous post u show a that u dont put care and thought into what u post compared to the cat, making urself look like an idiot

lol

(nothing wrong with putting 20 seconds of effort into a post, bobwoblob below puts an hour of effort into the typing but 20 seconds of thought just like u btw if u cant tell they r sexist as fuck)

they scrim tier one teams, therefore they are good enough for tier one teams to play for practice

also i will take a point

woulda made it to champs and done alr

dort this feels like trolling at this point LIKE BLATANT RACISM WITH THAT SA NA BIT (and blatant incorrectness) onhttps://www.vlr.gg/user/0d3gree top of ur sexism

to those of u saying GC is trash remember this is who u associate with

ALSO U DONT NEED TO MENTION GENDER FOR GENDER TO BE INVOLVED. if u talk about a gender specific league that is centered on the fact that its gender specific gender is there by default

the word gender doesnt need to be used to bring gender into something, just like if i say flor is the goat (cause she is) but the rest of her (former) team is good to then i am bringing up SR without explicitly mentioning SR

u r now educated

damn u had me in the first half, making legitimate points and everything, in the first half i woulda agreed with your points and you, but im sorry the GC talent is great right now, flor is demon1 aspas level so of course she gets signed but noia and mel are just as good in their roles, only reason they aint tier one is they aint flashy duelists, so i agree with ur first points about franchises and stuff but not u i do not agree w/ u

saying GC talent is in a bad place shows what to me seems like a clear lack of paying attention to GC, and before you respond, tell me Lucrix have u seen more than a flor highlight reel? i have watched every GC champs game from start to finish 2 years in a row now.

they most definitely are, although maybe lower down. tbh someone shoulda signed the entire shopify roster+effys

would done top 3 in champs

apeks maybe not. flor shopify would be top 3 NA tier one and top 10 world easy

ummmm they r going to champs period, i give them 50/50 for an international title as well, flor is the goat and will aim diff aspas if she plays against him mark my words and im bookmarking this and coming back here ALSO, oderus has experience with MxS making him bad but better than any old coach

flor can and will carry the difference

but m8 is good and she mihgt do that carry in lowers so my pickems that had 0 loss win for apeks are dead

u say unproven i say rank 1 radiant who has managed to beat pretty much all the big name NA pros in ranked
ranked may mean very little in terms of pro play, but it does mean the most when i comes to duelists and to some extent it allows us to create a scale, especially across all the different GC pros consistently performing on the same level as the tier one guys in ranked. ranked is a poor measure for pro performance of a single player but on a large scale it becomes a viable way to make comparisons

all this to say flor is unproven for now

if she goes for it mel could easy be a top 10 tier one igl as well btw

thanks, just realized there is also no 2game one

i love apeks for flor but i cant find the classic for them... all tier one teams get one, or am I missing something?

also riots loss ill just sub to flor on her twitch if i really cannot get one

edit: an immediate result of my dyslexia

also whats riot gonna do when APEKS win something (yall know its gonna happen), if there is no classic
