Franchising is less based on how good a team has been, but rather how stable the org has been and will continue to be. Riot does not value individuals or squads, but rather the corporation, which is why Sen was picked up for example. No matter how bad MIBR (for example) would perform, theyd still have a higher chance of remaining part of franchising than EG even if they win another champs. Another example for this is how OPTC was not in franchising, due to their conflicts with RIOT in league, and how Faze weren't in either due to falling economy.

This means that the relegation system DOES exist, just not based off performance.

As time goes on and more teams grow, this gap should distinguish, as the only reason it exists right now is because the t1 player pool is considerably less so orgs need to more or less gamble on the correct players to get and work with (which doesn't always turn out right). Now, I do see really badly performing teams maybe getting a warning to get serious, but considering how much money is put into a pro team, I doubt they are messing around. Also, since this is all expensive, the whole gambling on right players is even more stressful now.

Riot's entire plan is based on the future years, the issues with extended off-season, lack of games and improper structure is supposed to get fixed as more and more teams from franchising get added; I don't really like this though.

Jinx, I am not gonna jinx my team no matter what T_T

relegation cannot exist if franchising exists

qck cannot diff aspas individually, saadhak isn't even using qck in that sense but Loud will still beat Lev probably

let me bait in peace bro

mf how are you this dense or unable to understand what I am saying. They were lucky alot of attack, which is why they won on attack. 90% of the rounds were sova dart and kayo knife to push aggression, cut noise for 15ish seconds and then dry walk into site with viper wall. And the best way to beat that, is to have an aggressive op, which is why GE throws breakable util, which Bleed consistently never broke so Yay could never be set up. Think about the round they won near the end when their sova got a 2k by being aggressive main with yay. Also the round on yellow with yay whiffing, that stuff is luck and not really replicable. Russ did well on defense despite the loss and his calls to dry walk worked every time so he did not need to change it up, but that doesn't exactly mean it was a great plan because in theory had bleed and yay not been trolling, they would have been slapped around with the op

yea I am saying GE played well but they got slightly lucky? You want me to say it out for you in a different language too?

Mentality is the real issue here, but also because his old playstyle simply does not exist anymore and he has to come to terms with that while also trying to redefine himself for something else. DSG did not kill yay, DSG simply couldn't support him either, but DSG was more or less a sinking ship for everyone including toast anyways.

Also the c9 game is pretty irrelevant, being the best out of a team that got smacked by DRX is barely worth anything, and hardly tells the complete story. I just think he needs to completely get off the jett/opp role and pick up the sentinel role and grind it out and he'll be incredible.

Hard disagree, despite the lack of kills from tenz on ascent, his util and smokes were crucial to just about every round win. I think the comp is fine and just unlucky that they had to face Loud's 3riple m0lly cracked team lmao plus zellsis does look better on kay o

While GE played pretty well, I think they got slightly lucky on icebox with yay being half asleep and the entire team consistently failing to break darts/knife and failing to set him up aggressively with op on defense. With how much dry contacting Russ abused, the op should have gotten a shit ton of value.

ardiis really wasnt as bad as youre making it out to be. His jett was not as good as expected, but that year no one from NRG except s0m was really on top of their game. Maybe I am just coping because I loved that team, but giving them another year could have made them really good.

I do not completely agree with one aspect, and that is the emphasis of yay on chamber. Current chamber is far too different from old chamber, yay cannot take half as many risks and aggressive positions, and on attack he will be forced to mainly lurk and stay back for his trips anyways.

I think his neon did not look that bad, and I think, given another go, he could really do well on it. I think at this point, yay needs to move away from what made him the best and find new ways to innovate himself.

Chamber on certain maps, in certain circumstances will feel like home to him, but it cannot be guaranteed and I think he needs to redefine his strengths into something more broad than excellent crosshair placement, calm aim and op. I think he has the ability to be like alfa/suy/less, but its more of a mentality; asking a player like him to accept that his old self is not viable anymore is too harsh to accept.

Also since you bring up playstyles, let me kinda say it again, current chamber does not play like old chamber.

I thought he was from Nepal?

I doubt they will, they are all to comfortable on it, I do hope that they replace skye for gekko tho, just far more value

yea just on defense to get a pick off before 100t can even begin, or they need to play deeper and hard retake every round but that just sucks so their win condition is to kill them before they can abuse the 2 initiators. Another cool thing would have been to get tenz to be faster on wraps and flanks, feel like they were somehow too passive.

his neon wasn't bad tbh it was better than even his jett on icebox

Instead of worrying over an agent to play, try instead of finding a certain playstyle imo or deadass just be braindead and take a shit ton on duels if you are confident in your aim

Boostio had great calls and many rounds could have gone either way so the map is not as 1 sided as it looks, that being said, majority of sen's defensive issues could have been fixed if they just handed tenz an op

What is their analysts @?

aspas?

sacy still has great team utility, he just is not usually able to use them to help himself which is why he bot frags with skye

THE KID CAN FRAG!?!?!??!?!?!!

WHY IS VLR SLOWING DOWN LOAD LOADADADAD

WHAT A GOAT

Its because most people just support the player doing the best rn and then so on, rarely do some players have a dedicated fanbase

not really, yay with NV and optc was never a first entry and there are no more 2nd entries anymore unless you run a double duelist or play him on initiator/agg smoke, but yays greatest quality was crosshair placement and calm aim, he should be in the whole less/alfa/suy aim argument so viper makes sense

nah I get seeing that but genuinely being happy over someones downfall when it really does not directly affect you is just sad, your happiness at the expense of others sadness is just selfish and petty

So many shitters obsessed with the downfall of a great player. Can't believe how many people genuinely relish in shit like this, how sad does your life have to be? I dont even fw with yay like that but praying on someones downfall when it has no affect to you as you aren't even a pro is so sad

wdym prx needs jinggg to function? Our season did not even start off all that good last year but we still made deep runs?

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN

Yea practically the 2 teams making it aren't guaranteed to be the best, and considering how competitive I think pacific and americas is, many rosters will get dissolved next year despite honestly being pretty good

this was 3 hours long lmao

Dude I have been so stagnant on games ever since I bought SF6, way too much work. Hopefully soon I'll cop some other games I've been wanting for a while, maybe like RE4 Remastered, or DMC3 (replay time), or like p3r or Armored Core but I dont usually like mecha games. Lies of P was great, never got the full game but I did finish the demo when it first came out and it played out really well. Man I hope we either get godwyn or miquella in this DLC but with this time, shitttt should be both

Case Study of Vanitas, Pandoras Heart, Katekyo Hitman, Magi

what makes you think that?

I would happily lay in the middle of a circlejerk of FromSoft devs if we could just get the Elden Ring DLC rn and Bloodborne 2 announced and a proper expansion DLC for sekiro and a DS2 reboot which fixes shitty enemy placements, runs and bugs

What was the original tweet about?

Youre acc getting downvoted for this LMFAO keep spittin og they hate the truth

Bloodborne
Elden Ring
Sonic Unleashed
Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks (singleplayer option)
Sekiro

hard for him to start anything off when he has to deal with all the util nrg throw at him

ITS OUT ITS OUTTTTTT ALL ON YOUUU ITS OUT ALL ON YOUUUU

Now to make me enjoying valentines day finally

How is THIS your first post man

Ardiis in NRG, or even the old NRG team. Was never an NRG fan but man that team was so fun to watch, wished they went further but at least we got an iconic billi billi moment out of it lol

1280x960 is mine since cs

and the forsaken claim? lol that is just funny

I suggest contacting your family physician and having him file a report to get you into a psychiatric clinic for possible schizophrenia, otherwise what you are suffering from is something defined as LGS, or Lack of Games Syndrome. An easy fix is to find something else of interest!
