but it's not like g2 loud where g2 need more than 13 rounds to qualify and what not

both are locked in right? is this just a seeding matter for both of them or does this affect other teams

Well you gotta think about the teams that are making roster changes and what not. I agree they should have something to play for in the off season, but that’s way too hard. Also as someone else mentioned, you need 64 teams to have a regular bracket and 32 was already hard enough. Having 64 is insane

It’s a good idea in concept, just not possible to implement

Nah fr. Shoutout to them

Oh that makes a lot more sense. That sucks tho wtf

It’s the vibe tho. Like I said, it gets annoying, but it’s just one more thing to get hype about

I’m like you. I love watching the game, but I haven’t played in months. That’s partly due to me not having a good enough pc to play, and me being busy with school

This is based off of who gets the most hype

1. China
   • mfs get crazy whenever someone hits a crazy shot, no matter which team hits it
2. Americas
   • they’re funny, slowly build up a cheer for when wingman plants(that does get a bit annoying at times tho), and ngl the kru fans go crazy. Tbh any South American/brazilian team
3. EMEA
   • they’re also really passionate, but the reason why im not putting them second is cuz they don’t cheer for wingman planting, and if im watching a fnc game, there’s almost never any cheering for the other team
4. Pacific
   • BRO I LOVE YOUR REGION BUT YALL ARE NOT HYPE WHATSOEVER. MFS ARE QUIET AS SHIT LIKE WHAT ARE YALL DOING??

Yo what the fuck this is sick as hell. How did I miss this?? Ngl this rivals the Chinese walkouts

Nah. Lock in was supposed to be a special introduction to franchising. While I agree that it would help in terms of exposure for the bad teams/Chinese teams, I just don’t think it would be possible to do it again. 44 teams is an insane number and trying to watch the first lock in was already hard enough with 32 teams.

Maybe they could make a bigger tournament but having EVERYONE would just cost too much and take way too long.

Champs has the top 4 from each region iirc so that’s nice

nah ik i js meant the ones that did bad shit

edg pls. idc if its a mickey mouse. winning in front of the homecrowd has gotta be a surreal feeling

When I say production I don't mean the tech pauses and what not, I mean graphics, interesting stats, how the stage looks, etc.

1. CN

   • this one can prob be switched with pacific, but i just LOVE the stage and like the walkouts. I haven't watched much cn, but from what i've seen it it's so cool
   • also weren't they the region that explored split screens when it's a 1v1? idk i feel like that was a cool idea

2. Pacific

   • i dont really like the stage cuz it's really dark and you can't really see the players, but the stats are really cool. I havent watched much of the analyst broadcast for pretty much any of the regions, but i sometimes watch parts of the analyst for pacific and i love the like specialty graph. Theres something similar for swim and idk i just like the connection. there was also some interesting stats today that talked about the number of kills, amount of time played in all the matches, fastest/longest map played, etc in s1, and i would love to see that for other regions

3. Americas

   • ngl the only thing that americas has going for them is the vibrant colors and the fact that it shows the agents behind each player(china might have this but idk)

4. EMEA

   • i dont really fuck with the emea colors on stage, but i do like that it'll show who the casters are sometimes(idk if the other regions have this, jsut something i noticed)

alr fair. i figured you were either the same age as me or you were some 40yr old fat fuck

i wanna know the ages of yall cuz i refuse to believe people like acegamer30 or asuna_yuuki are over the age of 16

thank god you didn't mention any players from the union like pancc or wtv that pancada ahh name is

not sure tbh. EDG are currently going through an identity crisis and are switching roles to see what works. I don't wanna overreact and say fpx are the best and edg are the worst team to ever touch this game so id say currently fpx are the best, but internationally edg play sm better

Alr thanks. So watch tl game and prx?

Good result, but were there crazy shots/aces?

I missed all the games today. Are any of them interesting/fun to watch?

nah fpx are really good too

Title

wait how does he have access to the internet. i thought they werent allowed to😭

vipers my most played agent and im g3 peak

nah bro my school fucking dickrides him. it's insane

Ngl I don’t get people who genuinely like country. That shit hurts my ears AND IM AMERICAN

Okobotro 🗿

it was cuz it was so fast and so strong, right?

they lack the strats

WE NEED AN OVERSEAS ANALYST OR SOMETHING!!

all of the edg boys ngl. esp kk

LEV
TH
GEN.G
EDG

why is this reminding me of when the old c9 were laughing after being defeated at lock//in

china was added to franchising much later so the teams haven't been given enough time to come up with a concept. They'll add them later

also the most american thing ever lmao

yea i remember that

but you had to use the two heals before you could use the dismisses or something like that i thought

i think breeze will still run viper, and pearl is too good not to have viper imo

4 blinds or 4 heals/dismiss

that got taken out before official release tho, right?

i meant to add the most broken agents in pro play. sage's slow def was smth else tho

yeah i would've done viper but i didnt have the descriptions for the abilities

Rare babysusuke W?

it still shows he's a nice guy lmfao. i thought you of all people would WANT yay to be a good guy so he comes back to nrg and the optic team is back

https://twitter.com/yay/status/1665845519841886208 ?

alr i misspoke then

but the only thing that made astra broken was her suck imo. jett was just broken all around

also astra still took skill cuz knowing where to put stars and shit is hard. i tried astra and she was too complicated. gave me one more thing to think about

viper last night? i dont think so. her ult takes forever to refuel after leaving, the fuel for her wall and orb use sm fuel together, the decay damage is only 30(compared to the 50 in her prime), etc
