I don't think he's actually a fan of any team. He just does shitty baits, but this one in particular is horrendous

This bait is so shit, that it's pissing me off because it's an insult to the artform of baiting, as much as I hate baiting. Like holy shit, how could you make bait this bad.

In all of Arcane:

Jinx
Isha
Silco
Vander
Ekko

posted 7 months ago

yeah. Other shows have these types of issues in the writing, the point is that Arcane was so well-written up to this point that it makes these issues all the more glaring.

posted 7 months ago

Jinx and Vi are the two most important characters of the show, and we didn't get a good resolution for either of them, especially Jinx.

100% agree on the sex scene and about Warwick.

see #23 for my reasoning

You're welcome to your own opinion. I explained mine in detail in #23

Yes, the pacing of the last episode was horrendous. The fact that you're talking about new plots and plot twists in response to my comment on pacing shows that either you have no idea wtf pacing is, or you're trolling.

You want plot holes/bad writing?

Why the fuck does the warwick automoton wake up and attack? Warwick/the beast's conciousness was lost alongside all the other people who got turned into automotons. If warwick wakes up, all the other automotons should also wake up, and yet that never happens. In other words, the circumstances of Jinx's "death" are a plot hole pulled out of the ass to create that scenario.

You mean to tell me that future Victor couldn't give any better instructions than "blast my past self in the chest, but let me recover to the point of almost causing the calamity you are trying to prevent"?

Jayce says we have to destroy the hex gates, and proceeds to wait a signifcant amount of time to do this for no reason, all so that we can get the dramatic entrance of victor into a jayce and victor 1v1 confrontation. Why the fuck have Jayce do it by himself? We couldn't spare a few technicians who are of no use on the battle field to help him get it done faster?

When/why does Maggie betray Piltover? This question is never answered. Her betrayal is revealed and not even 3 minutes of screentime later she is dead.

Jinx survives. We see her pink trail dash out of the explosion, see Cait looking at the pathway she used to escape on the Kiramman terminal, and "the end" with the airship is written in the letters of her hallucinations. This doesn't match Jinx's character arc. Jinx was suicidal throughout, always willing to die in a fight. Echo saved her from killing herself literally via grenade, but we were not shown enough to warrant her wanting to escape the explosion that killed the warwick automoton. We are literally shown her accepting death as she falls. Also, the warwick automoton had her firmly in its grasp, which we were shown as being super strong. So somehow the warwick automoton lets go of her with her being harmed, she recovers from that massive fall without being harmed, all with enough time to escape the explosion? BS. The studio kept her alive for fear of backlash from jinx stans, but in so doing wrote in her commiting to an action that is out of her character.

There are more issues than these, these are just off the top of my head. Up to episode 7, Arcane continued to be peak fiction, but in episode 8 the pacing and gaps became too big to ignore, and episode 9 was a clusterfuck. There was simply too much material to close out in episode 9. Because of the ending, the highest I can rate the show is an 8/10 when before episodes 8/9 it was on track to being a perfect masterpiece.

If you reply to me, I would appreciate a response to my points instead of ad hominems just because I have a different opinion than yours.

No, nobody micromanages everything. That is the whole point. It is impossible to do. You need to have players who know the right thing to do in certain situations on their own without waiting on someone else's call.

You are a clown if you think the IGL micromanages everything.

The pacing just became horrendous in the final episode and there were glaring plot holes. All of season 2 has been fast paced, and it wasn't a problem at all, but there were too many gaps/things not shown on screen that the viewers had to fill in for the final "sequence". Like it leaves a sour taste after being peak fiction for 5 acts.

There's no way you're putting this on Rossy.

He has been in VCT ever since it was a thing. He is a veteran player. He should be delivering consistent value.

They can go together if you want, but Xeppa must have generational blackmail on Jack Etienne or something.

posted 7 months ago

v1c had 30% more assists than him. v1c played omen, astra, and brim, while Xeppa played skye, kayo, and breach. There is no world where the omen/astra/brim player should be getting more assists than the kayo/breach/skye player across 4 maps. Also someone help Oxy, my man is getting breach ulted by his own team in space that he already took.

yes, but it might have been better to force it out as a wild card instead of playing lotus

posted 7 months ago

Eh if you watch that Pearl back, I'd say PRX got unlucky in some rounds and that, combined with EG obviously being really good, was the reason Pearl got close. PRX went undefeated on Pearl at champs.

PRX 100% trolled by switching the Bind comp, and tbh they should have closed out split. PRX did have map ban advantage, but tbh it might have been better to force out the perma over a map like lotus, which has always been iffy for PRX. The other map was determined, because no one was beating EG on Fracture.

the roster will not work if it doesn't have native english speakers on it who buy into Frost's system

posted 7 months ago

delusional

posted 7 months ago

He needs it to be an english speaking roster bc otherwise he won't have authority/visibility to manage the roster. If they're not comming in English, how tf is Frost going to monitor comms and propose adjustments? He was only able to make the roster work because he had a couple of native english speakers who bought into his system and then got the other players to buy in as well.

It would be nice if they included an Odin skin as well to match Jinx's gun. I personally think these skins go hard, especially the Vi gloves, although I might be biased bc I like arcane

The real vlr.gg metric we need: How many times has a player pi'ed in an official?

If I had a nickel for everytime an IGL pi'ed at SEN classic, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice.

I think you are undervaluing s0m's best days, but I do agree that bang's peak is slightly higher than s0m's peak. The problem is s0m's baseline is simply way higher than Bang's.
