the fact that you fell for this bait tells me a lot about you.

Rito indie company does not know the periodic table.

How can I be gold-diamond?

The human body is approximately 99% comprised of just six elements: Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon, calcium, and phosphorus. Another five elements make up about 0.85% of the remaining mass: sulfur, potassium, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium.

If you are gold-diamond, you need to touch grass and maybe switch back to Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon, calcium, and phosphorus. I can imagine being made out of gold might not be healthy.

This is a bo5 but still impressive given the fact that it was only 3 maps.

Better than people typing EZ, or noobs or you guys so bad uninstall or somebody crying about people using an OP or spectre or just any other gun except Vandal, Phantom, Sherrif and guardian.

Pearl can be in during LCQ.

Yes 1.3 billion people + 43 million people can easily beat 5 gamers who spend their time gaming 12 hours a day.

Man thought masters 1 was the only tournament in this entire scene.

But I do mention that aim does not win you games? Role expertise matters. Optic has that. That is why they won masters 1. You are comparing the no.1 team last stage to the no.4. There will be 14 more teams in Copenhagen apart from PRX and optic.

Optic does not represent every team in the world. As long as PRX make the top 6 or 4 again, they have proven themselves.

I personally do not think that PRX will win the tourney. But I expect them to fare well against some other teams and at least not go out without winning a single game basically how they did in Berlin last year (which is what a flop means).

I don't get it. What I said is Forsaken and Jingg are on the top for "purely aim". Purely aim means just flicking to their opponents/crosshair placement.

"everyone on Optic is kind of just cracked" is not even a comparison. Being good at their role does not involve aim at all. It basically means that an omen player can do good smokes/outplays, a duelist creates space for the team.

Because FNS is a good IGL does that mean FNS is a better player than Forsaken? They cannot be compared directly.

Compared to top 5 teams in the world Forsaken's aim is like a 9.5/10 while discipline is 5/10 though forsaken's game sense is actually insane in clutch scenarios.

FNS has 5/10 aim and 9.5/10 brain. How do you compare these players? They are on a completely different level.

I personally do not think that PRX will win the tourney. But I expect them to fare well against some other teams and at least not go out without winning a single game basically how they did in Berlin last year (which is what a flop means).

Japanese salaries are much higher compared to other regions.

The biggest reason you see so many Korean pros playing in Japan.

They will most probably not shit on any big-name teams because discipline and game sense goes way beyond just aim.

Valorant is not aimlabs.

You guys like to underestimate teams from the east compared to NA and EU pros.

Forsaken and Jingg are easily comparable if not better to Yay and Derke in terms of pure raw mechanical skill. In terms of discipline and game sense, Yay and Derke might be better.

People were underestimating Forsaken even in Berlin last year and saying TenZ is better anytime, we all know how they rank now.

Just so that you know Forsaken and Jingg still boast the highest ACS combo of any duo in the game and are individually up there as well.

Also - FNATIC and Optic have only 1 star duelists/aimers/fraggers being Yay and Derke. (Alfager might be close to a second fragger though). Having 2 star aimers at literally the top of the world is what makes the difference for PRX.

1) ascent
2) Icebox
3) Haven
4) Breeze
5) Bind
6) Split
7) Fracture

PRX only showed the "chaos" strats in masters 1 and you saw it against G2 on split when they were 9-3 down.

PRX is actually quite tactical as well when they want to.

Prob the only teams that can anti-strat them comfortably is Zeta/DRX since they scrimm so much with each other.

The only way to beat PRX comfortably if you are not ready for their "actual" strats is to outaim them. That is most probably not gonna happen cause you have forsaken and jingg who are basically the best aimers in the world right now, followed by Davai who himself can get really explosive. Benkai is also good enough for tier 1 play at international events. The only one lacking is mindfreak but still he has the brains to back him up.

Every commonwealth country bust a nut reading this.

Friendship is not good in a competitive environment.

• Entirety of SA

The country literally borders us KEKW.

I am currently 5 km away from Pakistan and literally around 300Km from Afghanistan.

You don't need to teach me.

Ofc NA geography ed. I cannot expect anything more.

Afghanistan culture still >>>>>>>>>>>>> anything from US tho.

T2 SA orgs compensate players more or at the same as big orgs in SEA.

Especially if the org is also in PUBGM.

325

Duelists : 250 to 300
Sentinels : 150 - 200
Controllers : 150 - 200
Initiators: 200-250 for initiators with damage-dealing util. 150 + at least 1 assist for purely info/flash initiators.

All agents are good enough to be at least good for one.

Duelists should try to get more than 1 by utilizing the fact that initiators provide support util to create disadvantageous fights + duelists util is sometimes enough by itself by making you untradable.

This game is literally the best. If you play something like viper or cypher.

The 2 games I played on viper were literally insane. Like we 7-0ed (ff) and 13-1 the opposite teams.

Some of the viper walls on mid are so ridiculous and you can get so aggro with them. Really hard to punish any mistakes too.

It has been happening for a long time before that.

I would like to gladly inform you that more than half of the IITs have a worse record than your college. Further proving my point.

It's the only parameter to compare students tho.
Everything else just comes down to so many parameters including the location of the city.

lots of politics going

LOL, it happened this year and I don't want to take names but glad that people know this. Even my batchmates don't know what shit happens.

pure shit show

It has a lot of stakes with a lot of companies involved so it cannot get into that.

I would love some shit-talk tho. We love doing it ourselves. It should become common knowledge to not join IITs if you are serious about your acads. Sad that some very talented students still join IITs (especially new ones) leaving foreign institutes which are not even comparable.

IDK what you smokin bro :skull:.

I speak Hindi and I cannot understand anything beyond 5 words that are common between the two languages.

Not a lot better. They are much better in some other aspects like the volume and variety of research conducted.

Also, the situation is a lot better in older IITs than in newer IITs.

Stats would say otherwise, google up some stats comparing IITJ for example with older IITs like IIT D and IITK. It's not that different or in a lot of cases even better. Don't look at the number of offers/students btw cause older IITs to have a crowd.

However, I won't say the stats paint an accurate picture. I would they are marginally better yes. I was actually offered all the IITs but I chose a subject of my interest instead of going to a larger college. That should give you an idea that the difference is not really that huge especially if placements are on your agenda.

I would go on to say that even the NITs and colleges like DTU, NSIT and some IIITs are equivalent to larger IITs in opportunities given to BTech students. Its only at a PhD level that it starts to make a difference.

did you find any better engineering colleges in India?

No. Go to a GOOD uni outside if you actually want to study stuff. If you are ready to put in enough effort and are not looking for a noble prize or a Turing award or something, IITs will suffice. But they are way below the international standards of a good university.

You don't need to tell me that KEK.

BTW I am already placed :) and under an NDA for now.

It's just that no engineering college including IITs is able to keep job securities in COVID.

However, you cannot really generalize a "Not a good IIT" with every aspect of a college. It has a lot to do with other stuff which does not influence Btech students at all.

Just to let you know we were ranked 8th this year in Inter IIT Tech and IITs like Patna, Indore, Bombay, Hydrabad and Jodhpur are at the top when it comes to placements stats. So I am exclusively talking about placements and not other aspects of an institute.

I do mind :)

lol jk I am in Jodhpur RN.

I think I mentioned it once a long time ago but yes (just ended 3rd year btw).

The CS you study in school should not even be called "Computer Science".

It should be called introduction to C++/Python heck you cannot call it "Programming" cause they are just teaching you the language and not "programming". Programming can be learnt without ever learning a language and that is usually how it's taught in universities (we never wrote a single line of code in our intro to CS course). Programming was only done in lab classes.

If you think that "Programming" or "Coding" is CS, you are in for a surprise.

In plain text - you cannot really teach "CS" without first studying hardcore PCM in 12th first.

Machine Learning is nothing but Linear Algebra which does not count your 9th-grade graphs and stuff, it includes Vector spaces matrices and other stuff. It also has a lot of probability and statistics among other things.

Also, you guys really do not value physics and chemistry as subjects. But I cannot emphasise enough that these three subjects are taught to you for a reason. I can give a few examples here -

In this year's Inter-IIT a problem statement was to analyze solar X-ray data from XSM sensors that ISRO has on the moon. It obviously required programming knowledge, but we had to go really deep into physics as well.

Also, a good friend of mine is doing a project this summer to detect droplets under a microscope in the chemistry/material science domain. You need a good knowledge of chemistry to do this.

In the 4 years, you spend studying CS you will actually be using maths, physics and in "some" instances chemistry. Maybe when you get a job you can get away from it but in academics and research at least to my experience, these things will never leave you.

Finally to your point of "a child is good with computers" does not mean he is good with CS. Programming and CS are two different things.

You don't need a 4 year CS degree to learn to program and get a job. You can learn javascript react and nodeJS and get hired as a full-stack developer in 1-2 years. It does take 4 years to become a computer engineer and get hired as a "Software Engineer" instead of a web developer.

Hahahaa LMAOOO.

Nope. Barely 20% of my batch has got internships and less than 5% of them are in good companies.

We only have 4 branches in our institute and 3 out of them are core/circuit branches including CSE.

Placements stats are no better.

Let me also tell you that these is the stats of an IIT with relatively better placements where your average CTC all branches is 16LPA and for CSE is 24+LPA. In the case of other IITs its worse.

Enjoy your life :)

dude IITs are down bad.

They are average at best engineering colleges. Honestly I won't be surprised if 50% of my batch does not have a job by the end of next year.

I don't think you are ready for that then.

How are you going to test subject majors?

CS? Do you know Machine Learning? Do you know Data structures? Do you know graph theory?

Same for Electrical or literally any other branch. All that matters is problem-solving skills and JEE is enough to test it.

I agree on the part that it's not everyone's cup of tea. It should not be a life-deciding exam but questioning the relevancy of JEE is nonsense.

The only way to improve the admission to IITs might be to introduce an interview after the exam but I am sure most of the people coming from small cities will be against it cause ofc, they are not "smart" enough.

But letting you know my first-hand experience, JEE is an excellent filter (to test engineering skills) and all I would want is a personality interview to be added on top to filter out these idiots who still make it into IITs.

Unless you are in the top 1% you have effectively failed JEE.

People can perform very well in their first LANs as well.

We have many examples -

Jingg
Asuna
Surf

Cannot think of more at this moment but I bet there are.

All fade in comparison to GodLike "Govt Reserves" Esports with a value of aroundd $11.4 Trillion.

Proof - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_black_money

Enerii is already at pro tier level.

LOOOL you don't want me to tell you.

Actually I can't tell you some stuff cause its under an NDA.

But you are mistaken.

• A based comment from YT

""
You want me to tell the truth?

Indian teams are just paycheck stealers who do not deserve 1% of the resources and fan support they recieve.

It is beyond my understanding how after conducting so many internal tournaments from third party TOs and opportunities to play in international events 3 times, India is still so bad at the game. 1.3 Billion people and these orgs cannot pick up 5 decent people to win tourney.

Unsigned teams with 0 facilities will shit on teams like Enigma any time of the day. They have higher salaries than SEA pros, have bootcamps, have coaches from EU. India is also the second most-watched sub-region after Japan ( almost tied with Thailand) so there is popularity and fan support as well.

What are the excuses to not perform except non-competency?

How are people like antidote allowed to play in a pro team when he is still just diamond 3 in ranked at the end of the act and the episode as well? People that play in tier 1 Indian teams have never even been to radiant ever in their lives.

All this because they won't let new youngsters in the team. Teams like Fnatic have alfajer, Paper Rex have Jingg and forsaken The Guard has Trent and all of them are very young and below 18 years.

GE hired Kohli and has still not put him in the main roster despite him proving that he is easily top 50 in APAC. He is an overall better player than Kappa any day of the week still GE will not let him play and put him in contract jail.

All players above 27 in India should honestly be kicked or put as coaches in T2 Indian teams because that is the only way we will grow. People like antidote who do not even have the motivation nor talent to even get to immortal 1 Should be just removed from the scene.

Imagine losing to a team from Vietnam 2 times in a row in APAC who are struggling financially and have a much smaller population than India.

All this typing only for delusional fans to come and yell give them some time and tell them that I am a keyboard warrior and hater for speaking facts and exposing these frauds.
""

Imagine going to a foreign country/Imagine being a transfer student to a new school/Imagine being a guest at a party.

You behave like maple.

You demand respect.

I should not have to say anything else to prove my point.

Or maybe Aussies are just the most awkward people around which I would not want to believe.

The sad thing is that since the Org is from India, the matter can only be discussed in an Indian court.

Also this certain Org's owner has good connections in politics (the owner is a nephew or something of an important person?)

So yeah, TSM has a small chance of winning this. Still hope they win.

I do not justify this behaviour but hear me out.

This happens every game.

Ever thought how teams from Nepal/Bangladesh/Sri Lanka/Pakistan feel when playing in South Asian tourneys?

I see kids spamming stuff related to momos in matches against Nepal.

I see kids spamming terrorists in matches against Pakistan.

In APAC I saw kids spamming FemBoys/Lady Boys in EG vs MiTH.

Indonesia/Phillipines/Thai kids are no different.

The world is not perfect and these stupid kids will always be there in every region. Its a professional hazard and a skill to ignore all of this and continue to improve.

I personally do not send out toxic comments/death threats to players. I also do not encourage fl1p's behaviour. But just because WRONSKI is getting hate does not mean he gets away with the mess he created (ofc to be discussed in a civil matter)

You can feel free to somehow complain about fl1p's behaviour to Riot. If I get time I will support you for sure and I bet a lot of sensible Indonesians here will do that too.

Not justifying what fl1p does over here. He is indeed known to be toxic + racist. But you also know that fl1p will most probably continue to play professionally cause Racism was never an issue in Indonesia and India.

Being racist in the US is different cause when you are racist against a black man you associate yourself with the years of cruelty and the history.

Being racist in Asia is like "LAOS people eat fish".

Regardless fl1p should also get hate/should apologize cause he should understand the consequences of his words as well.

BOOM has been in poor form and forget APAC, even if Indonesia alone got 2 master slots, BOOM would still not be there.

The truth is, as revealed by coaches from both side -

Boom never lost scrims, they won map 1 and map 2 with packet loss. They cancelled the scrim on map 3 before even starting already being up 2-0. BOOM beat ORDER with packet loss.

WRONSKI not only clearly stated that "they were thrashing" which means something like a 18-6 or 20-4 or even 24-0 scoreline. But he effectively called Boom unable to cope with the emotions of loosing a scrim game and hence called it quits.

You do not understand how serious of a lie this is especially when it's general courtesy to not reveal anything about scrims to the public.

I think it has to do with Korea's 1 master's slot.

For a long time only 1 team has been going to international events from Korea. That means that only 1 team keeps getting international experience while the other teams are effectively region locked.

You will notice this is the case with almost all 1 region teams - Latin America KRU, Japan Crazy Racoons then Zeta, KR DRX. Even Brazil used to have good competition with us seeing new teams every masters. That changed when they made loud as a superteam.
