Well, if only if I had thought of that! Thanks buddy

Ok thanks a lot will cop the Xbox

ngl I don't really play any singleplayer games, mostly multiplayer games which are available on both platforms so for me game selection is whatever tbh

I’m moving out for uni and won’t have my pc for a few months. With val releasing on console that’s sorta the last thing I needed to get me to buy a console.
But I have no clue which is better. So tell me which one you think is and why

If you have good movement you have two chances to kill your enemy, where they only have one (assuming you’re the same skill level and that your enemy isn’t moving)

WAIT I DIDNT EVEN SEE LESS 😭😭😭😭

I was reading this thinking “ok okay some of these are reasonable and have some logic, but I disagree with a few but I can see why you think that”.

then I got to the underrated list and got hit in the face with scream. 💀💀💀💀💀

2 mid baits within 20 mins cmon man

yeah i'd be onboard then

to me G2 has been a team which has high peaks and low lows, I think if they get to the finals either could happen. But I'm 55/45 on them underperforming simply cause of GENG's baseline performance

TH hasn't had the best opponents until the playoffs, they seem super prep heavy (look at how good their bind attack was compared to their defence today), so I think they could fall short between tomorrow and Sunday if they win tmrw

imo GENG easily have a roughly 70% chance to win the event

nah u gotta give it atleast 2 tournaments imo

the alternative is deeping it and ruining your and maybe the teams mental

miniboo is gonna be great in the new meta if neon's gonna be broken as people are saying
but this also means pati is gonna have the freedom to go to whichever team he wants cuz his stocks are super high, so I think it all works out

pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls pls boost up the crowd by a good amount, it would make the games so much more entertaining.

The casters should be there to fill the silence of the crowd, not the other way around.

now comes with an IGL!

fr pls would make the match instantly 25% more entertaining

xg2431 is the best 240hz budget monitor u can get

e: click reply on accident

unrelated but bro why did u have to say boostigoat that sounds weird
the potential for goatio was right there and you fumbled

It's a broken change for pros

For 99% of people (ranked; from low immortal and below) this wont make a difference. In fact 1 stun and a shorter wall will just make it easier to play against

well well well

If you beat em, join em

good move tho

People keep on going on about an 'L crowd' in brazil or whatever, but in hindsight it's actually the best crowd we've had yet. If LOUD had won they would've been that much more excited, but as Fnatic won the crowd was still a cool factor, the eerie silence spoke volumes when the comeback was happening.

But even small shit like taking away Boostio's pig just makes the rest of what they promote feel forced and fake.
The TO's think that they should get to set the narrative, and that people aren't smart enough to make their own storylines.

defo not in pro play, cuz of neon buff jett is gonna get picked less, so less oping which is iso's only real advantage
in ranked i can see people picking him and ego peeking

no movement error while sliding is crazy

I think it's good that they're starting to at least acknowledge it, but I'm very sceptical with the way they deal with it. It's effectively 'you can talk shit, but only if we like it' from the way I see it.
Being strict and authoritative never works in the long term (excluding some extreme cases). At the end of the day no one can complain and expect to make a difference about a free product, which was probably by design.
But I still think it's not a formula for long term success, because you'll end up just making it boring (subjective) compared to other sports/esports

fr sports banter and culture provided in a more accessible package is literally the USP of esports. I don't think the VCT will survive long term if they keep on clamping down on these kind of things

whats this turkish drama i havent heard of it

The arena and games gotta be top tier cuz I won’t even lie this is easily the most boring event yet for me

800 and 0.35
Peak Asc1
Current Plat3

I skimmed thru it
My question for u is:
Do you think it’s an objectively bad thing to have women in FPS games? Cause that’s what I’ve taken from the post. Let me know if I’ve misinterpreted your post

Good player but needs to be comfortable on his team

His trash talk feels forced imo but it’s still more entertaining than ‘having the personality of a chair’ so I’m here for it

High energy (white girl music)
Everything (everything)
Piano (studying)
Gym (for use in public)

disregarding what u said about hypothetical rounds not being thrown;
I agree with your comment on (some) na fans

easily the most entertaining game at shanghai no?

Welp

cool offseason tournament idea but i dont see any world in which this would be good for vct

the only hope for this tournament is if the mercedes arena has a huge crowd and the matches end up super hype

yeah fair enough

how much more simpler can I make my reasoning for you 💀

prefacing this by saying that this is completely subjective based off of my perceived entertainment value, which can be influenced by story lines, production, the crowd or random shit like the BLG incident.

1. Lock//in - refer to flair
2. Tokyo - again refer to flair
3. Champs 2022 - excellent conclusion to the year, I think the best if I didn't support any team
4. Champs 2023 - very good story lines, the crowd was super hype too
5. Masters Berlin - idk this tournament was just super fun to watch and the quality of play was very high
6. Masters Reykjavik (2021) - really only up here cause its the first tournament and fnatic made the finals ngl
7. Masters Reykjavik (2022) - Zeta run and start of optic/loud
8. Masters Copenhagen - Had exams so wasn't really keeping up
9. Champs 2021 - I wanna put this higher but I can't really justify it, the grand final was hype tho, zeek clutch on breeze lives rent free in my head
10. Masters Shanghai - idk man boring so far, it might be the stage or the casters but even the quality of play doesn't feel as good as it was last year or the year before, same goes for Madrid
11. Masters Madrid - too few teams in the tournament although seeing GENG crushing was cool

basically all of 2023 clears (all of the later venues)

EMEA —> EUR + MENA
APAC + CN —> SEA + (N)EA
AMER —> NA + SA

Would also like less teams with more matches so player quality will be better. rn the bottom teams in every region are worse than t2. Maybe 8 partner + 2 ascension
6 leagues is a nice number to work with assuming the lowest LAN number is 12

I agree with you partially, the thing is that south pacific outside of PRX is already very weak, same goes for SA with Loud. I think if they get chances to scrim and interact with more local t2 talent that can only be a good thing for competition, which'll mean the teams will remain at their current levels, if not get any better.

I agree that players should be open to criticism for their performances, but in most cases like this I feel like this kind of performance is only a part of the picture when it comes to the type of people who dogpile on players. I think some people just don't like to see others being happy ngl
thats my take atleast maybe someone else would think differently

VCT NA
VCT SA
VCT MENA
VCT EU(+CIS)
VCT Pacific north (CN, JP, Korea)
VCT Pacific south (OCE, INDO, Malaysia etc.)
(take your pick for better names for pacific)

6 leagues means 2 teams at LAN minimum and is therefore a nice number to work with
I'd honestly be down for this even if it meant lower production quality across the 4 we have now

yeah such a fun happy go lucky personality sucks to see him sad
hopefully they come back better

defo wouldnt mind, tbh might even be the best move considering the pool excl. t2 (i dont really watch t2)

4th place isn't very bad at all
they did throw by not changing strats but they complained multiple times about not having enough time between tournaments, and im inclined to believe them cuz other teams at champs said the same i believe

in my opinion, I think first replace elmapuddy, if then they STILL continue to have trouble, then maybe replace boaster for next year
