Looking at this map, looks like 4 map bans then each team picks a map.

I used to watch Tarik streams for every watchparty but lately not only does he talk about other things, he doesn't even watch the game.

Assuming you don't want to go pro and just have fun in comp :)

If you know you have a slow reaction time, move your crosshair further out (ie. dont hold tight angle, hold a little wider) to adjust for your reaction time and as you get more reps you will figure out where your crosshair should be.

Work on crosshair placement more instead of insane flicks/aiming.
It will go a long way when people run right into your crosshair

I was just going to say, thats amazing

whzy

bump

Funnily enough, they have it implemented within the game client on the VCT page.

Surprised its not on their website

C9 makes playoffs as 4th seed and make a run to get the 3rd slot to Toronto

W thanks for info

They really did it

The observers here are so much better than those at Bangkok. Highlighting kills we didn't see in the normal around, adding slowmotion to highlight flicks made and the usage of free cam movement for different angles (non first person).

Just want to give them their flowers :)

QOR PC Issue forfeited first map by default

Xeta

28/50 man I'm surprised at how many random things I remembered. (Even though i'm the lowest score here)

Great quiz!

I can always hope :3

Can be something simple like what Marvel Rivals does.

1 agent ban per team (blind ban so both teams could theoretically ban the same character)

Blind pick from there. Although the quality of play may lower from this it would spark new comps on maps like ascent and rewards teams that adapt.

Cookiezi the OG

C9 Floppy (or something like that) to replace TenZ when he left

Deal

Why dont the other regions have something similar to the China region with all the non bangkok teams compete in another single elim tournament where the winner gets like 1 champ point. Nothing crazy but enough to not troll.

The teams that go to bangkok can either field their academy team or any team from challengers to sub for the tournament.

It would solve all problems relating to not enough games for teams in the season but the games wont be high stakes enough for teams to complain either

Hi HenBabyH - It’s me, your only reader. For Months I have created the illusion that you are posting to a large audience. But here’s the truth: all these people in vlr are me. And now, for you to be convinced of this, I will send this message from all my accounts.

They really just said "nah I'll do it again"

Im not saying flashback is bad more so just a mid player compared to the rest of the list.
His highs are high but quite rare, you dont look at DRX and think he can take his team on his back (granted his team is strong anyways)

cold take the only questionnable one is flashback
the rest are well regarded

Nemesis mode (i.e. you pick the agents the enemy team plays), they did it in league and it was fun watching random garbage comps do good

I guess this includes pre franchising cause C9 hasn't made it post franchising

good luck grinders

Sad to hear he won't be casting for VCT pacific going forward :(

hola

C9 :3 (copium)

They have the potential to make a LAN (cope) but the competition seems tough

Masters Rejkavik was probably Nuturn, nobody thought they would be 3rd

Honestly this is such a cool concept and should be done more (can even do team or duos sims)

unstable

Why does he love wolves so much?

Yea honestly their production team is so good, they actually provide replays of people getting the kills (ie. new perspectives) instead of just showing a replay of what we just in slow motion

Why don't they make champs become a 16 team swiss stage (first to 3 win/loss) instead of these groups of 4

I think he's rated, I think people weren't worried about his fragging power more his ability to igl the team

Why does every team have a rep except RRQ

This was such a cool way of doing the showmatch with the silhouettes drafting

the lack of understanding of how relationship building is insane

I love a fellow delusional C9 fan

I think to introduce it, can just start with blind pick with 1 blind ban each per team (ie. both teams COULD ban the same agent)

Guess the +vanity -vanity train for Cloud9 ends here
