This thread is so funny. No hate, but software devs can get 150K in an entry job. I'm getting 40 per hour in the US just for my summer internship.

Idk if they are the best, but EDG's mechanics look sublime today. They look better than Tokyo in terms of aim.
it's not incredible, it's a bit below average, but the casters just got excited by the last 2 rounds
+9 here,
so +8 overall
cope
Alfa went +23 on KJ and Cypher while Demon1 struggled to stay positive on Jett and Chamber.
What happened the last time they played each other?

So by your definition, Yay using the operator every time he could was also cringe for you, right?
Judge is cheaper than Vandal/Phantom and is easy to kill at close ranges. It definitely gives an advantage if you pick fights properly. It's smart to identify or create such situations and gain an advantage for your team, not cringe.
Things have changed a lot in 8 months. NA and EMEA definitely popularised Shorty as a secondary in the last few months. I will look for the stats if I get time, but again trying to win is not cringe. Both teams can buy whatever gun they want. It depends on the map.
I think EMEA and NA popularised using the Shorty as a secondary since a few months ago. Literally, every region uses the Operator and Odin as much as they can based on the map. Judge has mostly been a player thing. I have seen Vanity and Bunny use the Judge a lot. I don't think it's true to say one region uses it WAY more. Can you get stats on gun usage by region in VCT?
Edit: Even if someone uses these guns, it's not cringe. It's a competitive game, you take every advantage you get. That's how you win.
Every region uses those guns, but only Pacific/Chinese are cringe for you? Say the actual reason.
Every region uses Operator, Odin, Judge, and Shorty almost equally often. Idk what you're going on about, you just seem mad cause NRG couldn't counter a Judge properly.
we should wait for something and other players to show off their skills too.
I'm in NA now and I am awake :)
He was okayish, but Fnatic had good initiator utill against him with the double initiator comp.
how much does he make?
It was a 1v2, the first kill was a trade, making it a 1v1. He then killed the last guy after taking 120 damage. It's still worth it since it was a 1v2 clutch, but you can also see him doing it mid-round after getting the first kill in a round. I don't have any problem even if you do it after every kill. All I'm saying is that doing something very often will decrease its value.
I mean, he is true about EG being 2nd seed and FPX being the lowest seed. They've not played before, either. It's more suited when there is some actual rivalry or you clutch a 1v4 or something. I personally don't think there's any problem with it, but it loses meaning if you do it too frequently.
I think the NRG vs BLG game actually draws more attention to BLG's strats.
You should have watched EDG vs BLG. Whzy tried this against them and got shutdown.
Riot nerfed the bullets on the vandal and phantom. I think we shouldn't be complaining about smoke spam anymore, it's part of the game. It's not just luck. It's read + luck. Maybe Riot could fix the first bullet and make the spray more consistent when you aren't moving, but Idk, I am not a pro.
Conspiracy theory: Riot keeps spray RNG so that they can tune it when needed.
so if you know EG beat FPX, then why do you say NA is 0-1 against China?
Whzy and biank dominated and the whole BLG team played well. NRG didn't counter properly, didn't clear stuff properly, and then choked a bit.
Alfajer and Leo can 2v5 teams and still get 5+ rounds.
I'm kidding. They can 2v5, but not if the round starts as 2v5, simply because of util diff.
Derke is not the best (Alfajer, Leo, Chronicle are probably better), but he is not overrated. Aspas, Demon1, Jinggg, Sayf have all had bad games just like Derke. There's no duelist who has gone +10 differential every game. Optic Yay was the only star player who was doing well super consistently, but that was on Chamber, not duelist. Alfajer has been the most consistent player this year.
yeah he does take questionable fights. He keeps winning them though.
That's why I said it's not about having 5 great players. Navi's players are good, but they are playing weird.
Bro, I have seen him do this smoke trick an year ago.
It's not just about having 5 great players in one team. NAVI and SEN have 5 great players too.
I mean, many teams can beat them if things align on a certain day, but they are still the best team anyway. They are #1 this year even if they don't win champions.
