that's definitely your opinion (which is fine), but my chronically online ass only saw the craze that the DL ult reveal caused, because we didn't fully know at the time (since it was just leaks) that you could shoot the cocoon to break it or that if you angle it wrong the cocoon can break on its own. it just looked like a free kill ability if it lands. Vyse disabling weapons also reads like it'd be a free kill ability but it's probably not

just commenting on everyone already jumping on the "this ability is super broken" train without it actually being revealed yet

Some random guesses as to how this might work:

• The ult only disables your primary weapon, meaning that you can still use pistols
• The ult only disables the weapons you have equipped, so if you have a second weapon to switch to (like those that buy a vandal + op) then you can just switch to it (super unlikely but a guess)
• The ult only disables your weapon for like. 3 seconds, not like a full KJ/Gekko ult

willing to bet that if revenant does okay in ascension but doesn't win, 3/4 of their players will be signed by GE

few can achieve the rare title of VLR Certified Baiter, whose only perk is that you get downvoted no matter what you say

So if Vyze is on defense and the attackers hit her site, she can just pop ult and kill whoever entries for free since they can't shoot back?

Seems a little much, but then again Deadlock ult also sounded insanely busted when leaked. It's definitely good but not gamebreakingly OP -- maybe it'll be the same here we'll see

If I speak

Ascent - Omen/Sova
Bind - Brim
Icebox - Viper
Lotus - Omen/Astra
Sunset - Omen/Clove

dude i live in the midwest US and a flight to Toronto is like an hour and cheap if I plan ahead. if i can snag a ticket i'm absolutely going. so hype!!!

This all reads like the MLS system and not in a good way. Eventually there will be no Ascension path and instead an org just needs to pay Riot X thousand/million dollars to get into VCT.

I'm actually Colombian-American lol, but from the Colombian side, yes absolutely. My parents were half-hoping that I'd stay living with them in the city they're in, but I've always wanted to fly the nest so they can hopefully retire and return to Colombia soon without ever needing to worry about me. I think they'll actually do that once my sister graduates too in a couple of years.

In Colombian culture it's very normal and common for at least one sibling to live with their parents their entire lives, as a dependent and then as the caretaker. My grandma has been living with my aunt since well before I was even born. Before my grandpa (other side) passed away he was living with an uncle. That being said, since I'm very Americanized and they're not, it's probably easier on everyone that my parents go live peacefully in Colombia and either visit me in the US often or vice-versa, so having the financial freedom was very important for me.

Thanks for the kind words <3

thanks bro <3

I graduated college, moved cities, and have started working. No longer need my parents for financial support on anything. In a couple years, I'll be able to help them instead

HS% is a bad metric to measure IMO. I'm diamond/ascendant and have like an average of 17% HS rate

I agree with you on the rest though. I solo-queued my way out of bronze, silver, and gold and enjoyed none of it. Started 3-stacking and 5-stacking with friends in plat and had a lot more fun

I also think agent select is a little long. 30s may be a little too fast though. Maybe 45?

Just out of curiosity. If you could fix/change one thing in any gamemode, what would it be?

IMO:

• Unrated: have options on game length. Some people don't want to q swiftplay, but they also don't want to play a mode that's as long as ranked. length options (for example, giving an option to queue unrated as first-to-9 or first-to-13) would be good for those that want a mid-length game
• Competitive: a timeout feature. sometimes there's an adult on the team that has to take care of their kid so they have to afk. sometimes people have to take a shit. sometimes there's just a disconnect. a timeout feature would help with that a LOT
• Swiftplay: honestly nothing. it's fine as is. maybe integrate it with Unrated as the first-to-5 option instead of it being its own mode
• Spike Rush: remove the golden gun. it's just a little silly
• Escalation: I genuinely feel like giving Escalation the TDM treatment (in this case, giving Escalation its own separate maps) would make the game a lot of fun. Most Escalation matches I've seen/played in just resort to camping a choke point on the map (Bind TP/hookah, Split mid/mail, etc)
• Deathmatch: remove the minimap and remove the spawn sounds. a headshot-only mode would also be good
• TDM: fix Drift. It's honestly a really bad map even by TDM standards. the rest are fine though
• Replication: it's fine as is. great mode for pure chaos
• Snowball fight: again, a snowball fight-exclusive map would be fire. maybe a super-modified Icebox for the theme?
• Premier: give better rewards for playing premier. For me personally I see no benefit to playing premier vs playing 5stack ranked. At least with ranked there's RR to play for. If my prem team gets eliminated it's just whatever go next. If Premier gave more exclusive cards/titles/buddies/etc just for playing the game mode I'd feel a lot more inclined to play it

it's ultimately understandable. OW esports is completely dead. i know VLR loves to shittalk Riot for how badly they've handled T2 and franchising since that all started, but I'm just happy they haven't completely murdered it like Blizzard did to OWL.

i wasn't an active Overwatch player before role q was established, but i ultimately think for overwatch it made the most sense to create role q. anytime someone would complain about OW1 it was always either about Brig release, GOATS (because of Brig release), or double shield post-role q

did it strip a lot of player creativity? for sure. did it make the game more boring over time? probably. did it allow the devs a better structure to balance the game with (even if they can't balance shit even today)? yes. god forbid they try to balance the game NOW without role lock. release mauga was impossible to play against and imagining him in GOATS would've made me want to die

for valorant though, i agree. the role q argument is even more stupid and pointless. no role/character/comp is so unbelievably broken that we need to restrict the amount of people queuing for that role. sure, we've had some absolutely busted characters (beta raze, release jett, release chamber, post-gigabuff iso) but none of those justify role-lock.

very. there's a big SSB culture here, especially Melee. Ultimate also has a huge following but it's obviously newer

LoL Worlds

occasionally OWCS or whatever Overwatch event is happening since OWL is kill

i completely agree it's not a good method, hence why it's not the only thing i do when/if i warm up. usually if i warm up i actually start with sheriff only. the thing that method is good for (imo) is the tracking practice you get. it helps me a lot in terms of getting the hang of my sens since i play different fps games with different sens's between them (primarily overwatch, fortnite etc) since they require a different sens for you to play well (vs playing like cs2)

i think with my particular playstyle (smokes+some lurking, think omen, astra, viper) it also helps with trigger discipline since you're not shooting as soon as you see the enemy

if i have the time/not playing ranked but want to practice:

• 1 dm hardcore miyagi method (not even shooting, just tracking)
• 1 dm sheriff only
• 1 dm guardian only
• 1 dm vandal only

any combination of these. i also like playing without sound so i could practice clearing corners and reacting quickly (though DM has half the lobby shift walking and hard camping corners anyway so it doesn't even matter)

that being said once i started working i don't even have time to warm up i just go in

scrolling down the comments here has been an absolute treat

a light year is a distance, not a time unit D:

i've been an arsenal fan since i could remember

even if you're not a fan... one can't deny artetaball is art

i also like supporting the recently-promoted teams just because it's so difficult to stay up in general

guess that's fair. some of the bait on this website is so deranged and brainrot it should have its own word for it

why are people calling this bait? this isn't even bait it's just a shitpost (and a funny one at that)

anyways, hopping on the DRG wagon for 2025. we winning all 3 trophies

that's probably what happened. esports orgs typically hemorrhage a ton of money because of few sponsors and unless the owner is a diehard esports fan willing to put that money in / grow the brand to make it work outside of esports, it's eventually going to fail

TGRD was not really advertised outside of esports despite being owned by the Kroenkes. Hell, I didn't even know what the Kroenkes owned TGRD until after Ascension, I just thought that they were allowed to play in SoFi as part of like a sponsor deal. That in itself was a massive failure. A few collab events with like Arsenal or the Denver Nuggets would've probably raised a lot of money and given a lot of outreach, sort of like how KRU gained some traction when Messi became an investor.

When there's no passion where the money is, there's no money where the passion is

shit man, you're missing out

(closest one to me is 20 miles away when i used to live <2 mi from one. i know your pain but to a lesser extent)

raising canes. the box combo is my best friend on a cheat day

i have my VLR pickems at least, though those are kinda cooked https://www.vlr.gg/event/pickem/2097/valorant-champions-2024

Nah, EDG and SEN are at the point where either could win and it wouldn't be an upset. It'd only be an upset if either team pulls of a 13-0 lol

My personal upset rankings:

1) Trace reaching playoffs (no one expected this; everyone liked it)
2) SEN 2-0 GenG in the decider (few expected SEN to win the rematch, and even fewer expected a clean 2-0 to knock out an otherwise favorite to win Champs)
3) DRX 2-0 FNC in the group winner's match (everyone had written off DRX, though both teams are in their weakest season)

wasn't it confirmed that it's quite literally impossible for anyone to get the perfect pickems title

i do think they made the requirements for it egregiously hard lol

either way i forgot to do my pickems for playoffs </3

a breach flash with recon-gathering would be insanely busted though, right? unless you mean you can break it like how you used to be able to shoot down a skye flash

personally i think there's so much info-gathering already that a pure-enabler initiator would be good for the game. breach's kit, while niche on some maps, is very strong where it matters. i'd love to see something like that personally

I like what others have said so far

Do your research, find relatively low-mileage cars (high mileage means less cost, yes, but that also means more repairs are likely needed in the future), and ALWAYS inspect the car when you go check it out. See the title and see if it's been in any crashes/accidents/recalls. Check for obvious damage on the outside of the car. Some places are pretty scummy and try to hide some obvious red/orange flags. Also check the fuel economy. Some cars are absolute gas GUZZLERS regardless of make and age. Anything above 25 is fine and once you hit the 35+ then you're golden. My parents drive a car with a measly 20 mpg economy and they're always complaining about how much they have to refuel. Mine averages 25-33 most days and I refuel once, maybe twice a month.

Otherwise, good luck! As for models, I can second the Honda CR-V since I had a roommate who drives a 2004 CR-V with like 400k miles. It broke down while I was living with him but considering the age I was surprised it hadn't broken down much sooner, and the fix was relatively easy and affordable through a mechanic.

i have so much trauma from fnatic csgo i had been convinced for like ten years that the org was swedish

that's actually crazy to learn after so long lmao

ignite fan
champs 2024 sword
rgx butterfly/karambit
sovereign sword (i know it's basic but i always loved it)

honorable mention goes to the power fist from the arcade bundle

unironically, sovereign sword is one i'm willing to break a little more bank on if i get it. it's always been my favorite non-exclusive knife (though it'd have to compete with ignite fan and champs sword if i get it)

otherwise any of the big popular bundle skins are cool, especially if it's for guns i use often but don't have skins for (ghost, bucky, marshal, bulldog)

primarily to remind people to not take opinions on this website seriously. some of the most active bait accounts are probably bronze/silver and will try to convince you they know how to fix the game/vct/pro teams

i'm not even close to radiant either

they should give you just 1k credits, the same as you get for saving/surviving a round you lose (like letting time run out as an attacker)

pretty sure half of the users on this website are either:

• under the age of 16
• silver
• both

i bought the champs bundle, if i get any good skins in my night market everything is going to hurt

(inb4 i get the best night market ever after months of mid on mid on mid)

i don't think the import rule really applies here since it's all in the Americas region anyway. in itself i'm pretty sure RETA is a Mexican org

VLR doesn't label team/org names by the org's region, instead it goes by the most common nationality (at least i'm pretty sure that's the case). That's why RETA, despite being officially Mexican, is labeled as Chilean in VLR.

EXL (my flair) is also very obviously Mexican (owned by Club Tijuana) but VLR labels it as Colombian because it has mostly Colombian players

What if OpTic got a franchise spot

What if 100T beat MIBR and eliminated EG from qualifying to Champs 2023

What if yay didn't go to C9

my music taste goes through some crazy phases sometimes

some hard stuff:

• V.A.N and ANYTHING > HUMAN by Bad Omens (or anything from CONCRETE JUNGLE or THE DEATH OF PEACE OF MIND honestly)
• anything from Around the Fur by Deftones
• Without a Whisper and Immolation of Night by Invent Animate
• Obsession, Viper Room, and Nurture by Thornhill

some soft stuff:

• Buzz by NIKI
• EVEN by Bad Omens
• Nomad and Juna by Clairo (or anything from Sling)

some edm-ey/hyperpop-ey/happy stuff:

• Cheerleader by Porter Robinson
• movies for guys by Jane Remover (or anything from Frailty)
• Lose My Number by Moxas

some mainstream stuff:

• anything from BRAT extended by Charli xcx (unironically my AOTY, rare instance where the hype matches the quality imo)
• eternal sunshine by Ariana Grande
• End of an Era by Dua Lipa

would you say that if they fix the graphics/make gameplay a little faster it'll be a lot more fun? abilities being confusing is fine as a skill curve as long as they fix the most basic parts of gameplay imo, but i haven't played the game myself
