To Kill A Mockingbird is one of the few books I actually bothered fully reading for my ELA class. Great pick, imo.

Oh if we're talking figurative language Mandarin deserves the shout for sure, idioms galore. It's harsh on the ear sometimes but when you get going you get GOING.

Blg loses because Muggle is coaching.

We really didn't realize how good we had it until all that was left was these new gen alpha baiters who are like, 12 years old mentally tops.

On the bright side, chamber has also seen a bit of a resurgence because of this gunplay focus, and he has a reasonably fun gameplay loop involving playing weird as shit/risky angles or perks, tapping heads and getting out. Similarly, sage is okay because her util remains less affected by the senti nerfs, with only the wall taking a hit.

Also, I actually think the meta nerfs deadlock a fair bit which is why she struggles, more than util taking a hit. ie yoru waylay omen all remain good so there's just so many ways out of a deadlock hold. It's just tough to find conditions where she works sometimes.

L ragebait

Lmaooooo

This Satoshi guy has been moving like Stage 2 Icy wtf
Jowa looking really good, though.

Schrodinger's asshole

Shitty shituation

Who is Edward and why is he fucking Gay Ming?

Spank so nice they needed it twice

When you just know Shanks was supporting BLG but you can't prove it

Yeah, frags on the exiting from upper bracket team, true.

I think it's way more that their win vs Navi gave them false confidence on the map. They got used to being entirely unpunished due to Ange1's bad igl'ing that particular map and a lack of strats

Now when the opponents actually have setplays and setups they look lost

Mr Stark, I don't feel so good...

6 maps

And Sylvan didn't get a single kill.

You can't even blame bot frag Buzz for this one, absolutely shameless behavior out of this Sylvan guy. He's gotta go.

This too is Spank Theory

W pickups but idk about dropping Tvirus

I'm mad confused on how NAVI played their haven comp-it's a double smoker setup but, well, they pretty much never smoked off any op line, and then on defense their viper usage looked atrocious at first glance. Meanwhile they got like 0 use out of Alexiik neon on attack-it was mainly util dying first to unsmoked op lines.

Does anyone have a better idea of what exactly was the strat they were cooking? I'm gonna rewatch the map later but on first glance, they looked LOST.

The most hilarious thing out of this is that Tyloo has arguably IMPROVED since hfmi left.

Another year, another playoffs C9 choke.

Game so bad bro had to totally flip his viewpoint 💀

Drg 10-1 up ainoway

"Today"

The evil and intimidating Masters Toronto chokefest:

It's not a bad comp actually, I'm personally iffy over Deadlock but she's been seeing use so ig that's fine and the others fit pretty closely into the existing meta.

There's surely no way it happens, right? Surely...

"We are overall better" and then 4/5 KC players are negative to end the series 🥀

Bro ulted himself and realized he might be needing that degree

Clash of trash is a hell of a bash

6-6 at half, this is looking more like 2G vs Furia by the second.

The monkey's paw curls, Furia closes it out 14-12, 11-13, 28-26

Oh man Trace Ascent was the shit back then, I'll never forget them absolutely fucking frying LEV back in Champs.

Whzy did similar in BLG vs TE, 3 aces and server MVP just for his team to get kinda cooked on map 3.

Congrats to Furia for winning Champs 2025!

And then there's Palla at 2/7 lmfao

Tyloo didn't get a map.

Scales outdid Slowly in fragging although uh those assist numbers are suspect.

All the gamers cheering All Gamers over the finish line, absolute cinema

Better Call Sean because holy fuck.

Batu is cooking a 5 star meal out here, bro's a goated flex

Shrimply Phoenix ult the wall every round 5head

Yeah without dive you're either just slowly scaling and baiting out util, defaulting/playing heavy mid split to spread senti util thin, or praying you knife/undercurrent vyse and allat just makes attack half is even more miserable.

Clearly it's because Sylvan didn't even shoot his gun on defense half, smh smh

Every time the casters pronounce his full name, his aim gets 1% better for the rest of the match.

SentineLs

We witnessed a perfect choke out of the Tejo merchant team, so you were right in a way?

Silver linings, silver linings

Anything else you wanna say?

Is this giga banger in the room with us right now

Mf's playing like an Op crutch instalock Jett except he's on Neon and he's him apparently

Incredible, you went 0-3

PRX 2-0 TH

Riens had 20 kills, 0.67 kd roughly

Something in fact was one of the weakest fraggers for PRX

That's...kinda impressively wrong tbh. Respect.

"Start that bus back up to the retirement home" is a crazy line out of the casters but damn YFP rolled Cube on Lotus.

It's literally the "he froze" meme every time they so much as get a whiff of the word "finals".
