Great news for val. Heard many other Chinese orgs like wbg are also planning to invest in val scene. Val esports has a bright future as long as it gets big in china and vct china catches up with other regions.
Hopefully mobile game doesn't soak up all the talent tho. Mobile gaming is a bit too big in china.

Again as I said time and again t1 has been the best team when given time after only geng. T1 coaching>>>kt coaching is what I mean. Also kt biggest strength so far was the momentum. They are losing all that with the weak break. Just watch the game. It's gonna be ez for t1 and somehow people will act surprised when t1 wins lol.

????. T1 only lost to hle and geng in summer playoffs. Not kt. T1 has been the 2nd best team itw this year overall after geng.

posted 1 month ago

I think main problem for kt is the week break between the game. T1 got the prep time and kt had momentum which is now slowed down. T1 have always been a lot better with prep time.
Same thing for quarters too. I think t1 wouldn't have won at all if they got into geng hle side of bracket or didn't have a week to prep for Al game. This is the reason I think it's a 60/40 or even 70/30 in favor of t1.

The actual goat. No one is close. Well mugi is 2nd but still a big gap cause mo light is the too consistent as well in every other events of the year.

In south Asia only mobile esports pros are famous tbh. People don't normally know even who faker or simple is unless they are deep in like PC gaming scene.
Most popular players here are PUBG mobile players like Jonathan or mortal who have made it big in influencer side too.

True. The single elimination bracket can be so boring sometimes. Fraud teams like tes make it to top 4 while actual good teams like hle and Al are eliminated in top 8 cause of the draws. Even swiss stage bo1 format is ass.

I think t1 is favored 60/40 against kt. I really don't see kt winning this at all. It's a 3-2 if t1 chokes otherwise probably gonna be a stomp for t1.

posted 1 month ago

Major reason is talent pool being dead and then they haven't won anything for 2 years now.

posted 1 month ago

T1 as the team and even geng rbh. Also more about lpl teams just not winning anything for like 2 years now. They haven't even won msi or anything.
Also lpl death was gonna arrive even if t1 didn't win worlds. The talent pool was already dying since like 2021. The interest in esports started declining after mobile gaming boom and government rules for games.

posted 1 month ago

This year it had been really bad tho since lpl degraded a lot this year. Otherwise yeah before this year generally lck and lpl were quite similar in strength as a region.

Oh true. Forgot about badminton.

posted 1 month ago

Gonna add him then. Still private matter aside who is the most dominant one? Just professional side except for steroid abusing? Dj or gsp?

posted 1 month ago

True. So let's just add only one for racing. Who deserves it the most? Nvm added lewis alone.

posted 1 month ago

Sure. Tell me just one. Who deserves it the most? Most dominant one?

posted 1 month ago

I mean I have heard about Jon Jones being mentioned as a goat more by UFC fans. Otherwise I know about khabib.

Idk how accurate this list is but it seems pretty accurate. https://sekkeidigitalgroup.com/top-10-most-played-online-games-in-china/
So yeah hok is still the most popular game there.

posted 1 month ago

Yeah. He has been very good this year. People just love scapegoating him for any t1 loss and still think he is ass cause of his past where he int in some games.

It's just tes man. They are so pathetic every time in crucial games in international.

posted 1 month ago

I don't really like regional matchups much but yeah some of them are bangers. Anyway I don't really support any region in league but lck vs lpl games are always peak if it's two strong team fighting so I always root for situations that make lck vs lpl games possible. Like Al vs t1 game was the most fun game this year.

posted 1 month ago

It's funny seeing some val fans expect every game in league esports to be a banger or very competitive lol. Generally every worlds there are like maximum 4 games that are actually banger.

posted 1 month ago

Obvious ragebait but I nearly took the bait. So 2/8.
And bro said football has worse competition than league esports lol. And don't ever disrespect Messi like that bro.

posted 1 month ago

It's not just that. Tes is just ass too. Only competition for t1 was geng. Geng just choked as usual yesterday.

posted 1 month ago

Only one from a particular sports so I added Sachin Tendulkar. I think Sachin is a better choice considering his influence on whole cricket world.

Keiko leaving tl.

Guys who should I add for racing sports? Who has been the most dominant of all time? Like most championship titles or long career length (consistency)

posted 1 month ago

I mean lebron consistency alone is diabolical. Like 23 years of career is like longer than almost any esports whole lifetime existence.And he was like a top 5 player at least in most years of his career too right?

Forgive me for having no ball knowledge but I always thought Jordan had higher peaks from hearing about basketball from my friends and people in internet. I am not that knowledgeable in basketball. Ig they were wrong. At least he is more influential.

posted 1 month ago

Who is the greatest or at least the most dominant athlete in their field in racing sports not just f1? Gonna add that person.

posted 1 month ago

yeah he for sure qualifies for this list. gonna add him.

posted 1 month ago

Ask someone like cloudberry here. But yeah I also see people mention him every time they talk about the most dominant sports athletes. I don't really understand anything about ice hockey tho to understand his feats.
Make a thread asking Canadians to come and then copy paste this question of yours.

posted 1 month ago

For whole racing discipline who is the most dominant. Not just f1 basically.

posted 1 month ago

Nah not gonna even argue. I know what you are trying to do here.

posted 1 month ago

Adding jon Jones cause I have heard him be mentioned more.

posted 1 month ago

Esports and sports not comparable. And this is the list for just sports athletes.

posted 1 month ago

For fighting let's add UFC since it encompasses many martial arts discipline. So who is the actual goat of UFC?

posted 1 month ago

Forgot about gymnastics. She is up there for sure in this list.

posted 1 month ago

Ok.

posted 1 month ago

I don't know about racing tbh. So just tell me one guy in general for whole racing discipline who has been the most dominant in his field be it f1 or any other racing sports.

posted 1 month ago

Added. forgot about cricket for a second there.

posted 1 month ago

Sure gonna add both.

posted 1 month ago

Depends on if you value consistency more or peak more ig. Anyway Jordan is my goat too just for his influence alone. So gonna add him.

posted 1 month ago

So here is mine personal top 18 list for greatest sports athletes oat.

  1. Aleksandr Karelin (wrestling)
  2. Michael Phelps (swimming)
  3. Usain bolt (running)
  4. Muhammad Ali (boxing)
  5. Messi (football)
  6. Magnus carlsen (chess)
  7. Michael Jordan (basketball)
  8. Table tennis (ma long)
  9. Tennis (Djokovic)
  10. Wayne Gretzky (hockey)
  11. Tom Brady (American football)
  12. Armand Duplantis (pole vaulting)
  13. Sachin Tendulkar (cricket)
  14. Lewis Hamilton (racing)
  15. Simon biles (gymnastics)
  16. Demetrious Johnson (fighting-ufc)
  17. Tiger woods (golf)
  18. Lin Dan (badminton)

So the list isn't in order except for top 3. And also only one athlete from a particular discipline is allowed to be in the list. And I tried to list sports that are as accessible as possible for most people in the world.

So what do you guys think of this list? Any athlete you guys would add here or remove from this list?

And any athlete from this list that you would replace with someone else from the same discipline? Like Ronaldo for Messi for example.

posted 1 month ago

Anyway just for fun info. Search for a guy called Aleksandr Karelin. I think this guys is legit contender for being one of the most dominant athlete oat. Like he had 19 years of career in wrestling and had 887 wins and only 2 losses. And he had 3 Olympic medals and 9 world championship medals. Bro was just too insane.

posted 1 month ago

I mean bro if we start making a all time list then you will find like a lot of people who have achieved such things in various fields of sports. Like sports and esports are just not comparable. Just put him as esports goat. No need to really compare him with sports goats.
Like even Magnus is above him ngl if we define chess as esports.

posted 1 month ago

There are a lot in sports tbh. Like lebron, Tom Brady, Gretzky, bolt, Phelps, ma long, duplantis and many more.
Thing is sports generally last like centuries and are more widespread and accessible compared to like esports or gaming. esports is after all still a niche subject in most part of the world. So sports generally have lot of players that have achievements like these.

posted 1 month ago

Nah. Phelps, lebron, Messi, Ali, bolt are top 5. Well tbh they are too many sports goat that can contend for this.

posted 1 month ago

Yeah kinda ass. Lpl as a whole degraded a lot this year. Only Al has looked good. Al is a top 3 team this year.

Blg lost their shotcaller jungle player xun basically igl this year. So they have looked really bad this year. Blg has been insanely inconsistent mainly. Their peaks have been high but very low floor.

So you can play in gcc highest tier at 14 or 16 but can't play in vct tier 1 until you are 18? Why are gc players allowed to play so young? Like they have to travel around I am pretty sure.
