True

That wouldn't happen. Like I said it'd be brand suicide. This is already pushing the border of comfortability, if it was mandatory discord would literally disappear.

You dont need to scan your face in the first place? Just don't do it. I doubt most people are using discord because of NSFW channels. So its not that big of a loss. Plus every company already sells ur data.

I meant I'm early access for this new ID verification. The UK by law had discord make their citizens do all this stuff a couple months ago.

Whats the method? The picture, and they guess ur age?

As someone with the early access version of this ID verification thing, I don't understand the complaints. I use discord every day and it hasn't affected me. Its genuinely not that bad, if you don't verify ID its just the same, but without NSFW channels. The only logical issues I kinda agree with are the risks of data breaches and the potential of discord taking it further, but you don't need to verify ur ID, so the first one can be avoided. The second reason is practically brand suicide, so that kinda makes me think that they wouldn't do that, cause once they do the community just like its currently doing, would boycott the hell out of it.

(I've read a single article about this, so if I'm missing anything mb. I'm also not an absolute gooner, maybe thats why I'm not that affected.)

Went camping at Loch Ard last year, was pretty good.

since you said please

ok... i turned on a VPN all so my eyes could get blasted by that stupid ass light mode

gonna be honest. i misread that at first.

I personally dont really care about this, but i don't think "growing apart" is the real reason. Would someone to break off an engagement with their partner, because of that? Also both of them started their relationship before either of them were insanely wealthy & popular, so its kinda unbelievable to think that "growing apart" would be the actual reason for breaking off their engagement & stopping the relationship.

-Cortezia
-Kyu
-N4RRATE
+Inspire
+JonahP
+Some VCL Goat Duelist, or get the old Goat Yay

Cortezia is good, but i dont think he works well on an all english speaking team tbh. He looked lost on bind against LEV.
Put Johnqt back on IGL have JonahP or Inspire help with calling. Or do what XSET did and have 2 "Co-IGLs" (iirc they did that with dephh and ayrin. but i might be wrong)

If Vitality fail again this year. This could work, PROFEK is really good though. Sayonara could learn omen, Jamppi or Chronicle can play init if Sayonara plays omen. nAts has chemistry already with Jamppi & Chronicle. Could also help Jamppi as a second caller. Tbh this is based on if PROFEK does really bad, but thats unlikely.

Comps could look like: (Based off vitality's past comps)

Abyss
nAts - Astra
Chronicle - Veto
Sayonara - Sova
Jamppi - Yoru
Derke - Waylay

Breeze
nAts - Viper
Chronicle - Sova
Sayonara - Omen/Yoru
Jamppi - Yoru/Omen
Derke - Jett

Haven
nAts - Killjoy
Chronicle - Viper
Sayonara - Omen
Jamppi - Sova
Derke - Yoru

Or

nAts - Omen/Astra
Chronicle - Killjoy
Sayonara - Sova
Jamppi - Yoru
Derke - Neon

like i said he'll probably want to switch. he was on a 3 or 4 year contract iirc when he first joined and it was rumoured to be a lot of money so his buyout was probably too high for most teams to justify getting him, so thats probably the only reason he stayed on the team. thatll be no problem once his contract has run out.

would be the most sought after player if he was available? insanely good player on top of that he can frag while igling and has insane experience?

his contract is out this year. another org will 100% offer more money than liquid would, also hes been with the org since 2023, so probably wants to switch.

there is no way liquid manage to keep nats next year. id be very surprised.

get new coaches. trexx on gekko, nAts on waylay, kamo to initiator, getting rid of kamyk for serial, bringing in a talented t2 PACIFIC player?, their abyss comp against kc? corrode comp with astra/omen instead of astra/senti?? (they literally put wayne on astra in split and he went positive, but didnt think to put him on astra in corrode and put one of the best senti players ON SENTI) Also not using their academy team to promote players?? surely they scrim against each other more than any other team so the chemistry should be there.

LETS GO

why didnt navi go solo controller and have 4 drones :/ wouldve been goated

contract runs out this year.

not really any incentive for him to come to FNC. used to have chronicle and be good. but now FNC dont have chronicile, and are almost losing to FUT.

they play different roles

cause

id cri

if liquid fail this year, what team gets the GOAT. no way he re-signs with liquid. id lose it.

They have a nAts

its easily fixable. just make alfa play veqaj's role. make veqaj 2nd duelist & init. we've seen how good he was in t2 on duelist/op. and alfa is probably the best replacement to chronicle in the scene. (nAts is the goat)

when do the actual players get to play cause my pickems aint gonna be happening without them.

but i wish the johnqt rumour was real.

i said they are the exceptions for this year cause they can shoot? plus boaster literally went positive against loud in the grand final lol 4 kills off of aspas.

same could be said yeah, but ange1 made 2/3 international events, shouldve been 3/3 in 2022. while redgar didnt, so its harder to justify for redgar.

ill rephrase it. heading into 2023 ange1 was one of the better fragging igls. start of 2023 he was doing good and going positive, then later in the season navi the team not just ange1 were doing just as bad as him. probably could look at the other players on navi in 2023 and see similar stats.

id agree if it wasnt for 7 out of the 10 games, they lost and the players themselves played bad.

against team that made top 3.
2 close ot's in 3 maps.
another 2 close ot's.
they all played bad and got swept.
this 1s pretty inexcusable.

ange1 was one of the better fragging igls. bro was putting himself on yoru lol.

who is igling on kc?

Boaster's clutch % was insane in 2023 iirc. plus he held his own in that loud lockin gf.

what even happened to them since then? i swear i remember every IGL even boostio, boaster and fns were able to shoot and take fights. now with most IGL's its expected that they bottom frag. (it was like that back then, but it wasn't as bad as it is now.)

edit: obviously there is some exceptions like. nAts, Mako, Ethan, Avez, starxo.

FNC always need to rev their engine up before they start running.

We got cooked by an ascension team

Tf u mean heretics ands gx lose???

You mean the 2023 with LOUD/EG/SEN/NRG? It'd make more sense if u were talking about 2024. But even at that, they'd only be able to play in the 24 season. Even then M80 would probably be around C9/NRG/EG level. You still had LEV, SEN, LOUD,100T & KRU to beat to get to an international. That 3rd slot in stage 1 & 2 is very contested. It's probable they could've in 2024 but not even remotely possible for them in 2023 to make an international excluding lock/in. (if ascension happened in 22 to promote a team for 23.)

if m80 made it instead, it'd just be like what happened to apeks. I don't think they would be able to make an international either, even if they did manage to stay together. like the first post said as well, individually NA & EMEA are probably on par with each other talent wise. also id like to just say that brawk was literally a t1 player before and is not a rookie. maybe a rookie in franchising, but not t1. (fun fact, ghost gaming was my favourite na team back then. Then it was xset)

Really don't like g2 being labelled as a "T2" team when 4 of the players made it to an international, and only were in t2 because their org shafted them.

I had furia winning because of momentum if they won the kru game.

probably could. if 100t pick the right maps they can. G2 get too complacent when it comes to their map pool.

i was hoping NRG would have something like 2nd season syndrome so completely went against them cause of what they did to me. (but i think they beat MIBR now)

Yes, but probably won't.
