So, in biology, there is a term called metamorphosis, and clearly the Dragon Vandal transformed into a Dragon Phantom genetically / statistically, while recovering its physical form.

It is definitely possible. Rise on a good day can really upset many teams especially since Shanks is such a wild card and Supamen is just such a powerful support player.

Probably from SAO since I've only ever heard of the name Zekken from Yuuki (SAO character username) + Considering the trend of using anime character names as IGN's, its certainly a possibility.

Absolute Sword Zekken.

yeah 100% the code is totally cracked 100%

No clue why that test was significantly harder than the rest. The MCQ was far more difficult that the FRQ for whatever the reason is. Just glad that its over now and thankful for the outcomes.

might be even more with all the co-streams and the communities it brings together.

TSM fanbase + Sen fanbase + old valorant fanbase + shroud + myth.

It'd be the most hyped game of the playoffs.

Good luck with college!

Good luck, you got this!

Man the physics 1 course was nothing like the ap test. That was some b.s lmao. Barely got past it and am really counting my lucky stars after the results. That test should not be for first year physics students lmao, no matter how good your fundemental calculus is.

maybe tomorrow will give us the reunion most of us old valorant fans wanted

17. I guess this is the median for the val community?

Jett, Sova, Raze, Omen, Phoenix, Cypher, and Sage are the ones I usually play. In my "team" setting, I'll play duelist since we have roles managed. On the comp/ranked side of things, I usually flex towards Sova, Omen, Cypher, and Sage because I feel guilty for taking a duelist role.

All jokes aside, not sure how many people below the age of 10 actually watch TenZ though.

I mean, its definitely manageable. Honors and AP workload isn't really that bad unless you are prepping for Physics 1 (in that case, good luck cause no prep time can help you with that ap test).

You'll see a drop in viewership but I don't think it'll be big enough to be a detriment at all. Games like CS, LoL, r6, and others have thrived during normal years so it shouldn't be that bad.

Yeah, Neymar is an incredible player to watch and was one of the reasons why I started watching some La Liga games over EPL.

A lot of Barca fans were torn up from his departure but honestly, given the time when he left, it made a lot of sense; A rising super star that is ready and motivated to become the best player in the world.

Kinda sad tbh. Neymar, despite producing incredible results and stats, never became the expectations a lot of people had for him (all the stage shine on him). He had good results and stats but never got to go beyond.

Asphyxia was emphasizing that relying on one, and one thing only, is not the greatest solution. Resonance/obsession is great, but overly investing into one thing can hurt you more than help in the long run.

Bro, to think fucking Messi and Ramos will be playing under the same team is just insane.

Isn't that an absolute last resort though for screening anyone that's massively flagged?

Granted, you can literally have assholes spamming reports on you.

Actually, I can understand his point about Android over Yay, even if it is a slight tangent. During their times in ABX, Android was what stuck out the most on ABX as a duelist and he was what brought the team decently far. When NRG gave him an offer they couldn't refuse, Android switched and gave the spotlight to Yay.

As of recent results, you can argue yay is better just off of that but then again, NRG is completely lost right now and it isn't really Android's fault. Yay is known for the 8 ping warrior but wasn't "crushing it" when the ping wasn't absolutely in his favor (TSM vs ABX). This isn't to take away from his fragging ability, he's an insane duelist. Just trying to be a bit more "realistic" when accounting for all of the history.

Though, in the end, I'd have to give Yay the win over android here. But I can certainly see the reasoning behind why Android might be rated higher.

35** my bad LMAO

Sentinels should be able to beat Acend but honestly, anything can happen. I'd say its like a 65-35 chance for sentinels and acend respectively just by looking at gameplay.

I watched a bit of TSM myth back during the fortnite reign in 2017-2018 (died 2018 idgaf). So there began my interest in TSM.

Though, what got me supporting them in Valorant was definitely Wardell transitioning from CS to valorant, and producing pretty good highlight clips. He was kinda an unsung star in the CS scene, not really having much chances, but always doing pretty decently as a player.

I'm going to be a bit biased when I say this but, I honestly think BabyJ and Hazed are better than Oderus as a sentinel. Don't get me wrong, he's a really strong sentinel and an even better IGL, but I think the other 2 are just more consistent as of recent.

Supamen for me has always been a top 3 controller player, just slightly behind nitr0. He frags and he uses his utility masterfully. I'd say he can definitely replace Vanity.

Your point about s0m is fair. NRG looked utterly shit recently but s0m has usually been the one to shine out in the end for NRG.

Basically, IIRC, you can create teams and participate in riot organized tournaments; its all within the valorant hub UI.

Prizess are usually skins or banners. Simple stuff like that.

I assume it works similarly to the LoL clash tournaments.

Controller
+Rise Supamen
+NRG s0m

Sentinel
+Faze BabyJ
+TSM Hazed

My guy tf are you on.

Its one thing to be a fan, but it's another to be ignorant. Sinatraa was by and far the best sova in the world. He was the only player to get like 2 kills with his ult every time it was deployed + shock dart kills. Man invented the odin spam through ascent + haven.

S1mple brings in most of the views for CS.

As for CS views in general, there was a period in time where all the twitch records were held by CS so there is that history that it has.

No fix. Just enjoy the trip is about all I can say. But it does suck you'll miss the hype for the biggest qualifier.

IQ means nothing without EQ in life. IQ also won't help you with endurance or persistence; it can help with understanding the logical components of any particular system you are studying, but it has ZERO profound effect on the mental aspect of learning/applying things.

A man who has lots of skill but doesn't try can never do much because they never use their skill fully. EQ matters a lot too, it isn't all IQ.

IK this post is a troll, but just wanted to throw out some thoughts.

I meant benched till he gets unbanned.

I don't think Sentinels re-negotiated his contract either, otherwise he would just drop the org entirely since re-negotiating the contract would imply full time content creation, or a decided future with his competitive time w/ sentinels.

From what I heard from my Malaysian friends, PubG and Apex are actually quite popular over there (as for pc gaming). Mobile games are still predominantly more popular but you do see people playing pc games over there.

Its popular in the SEA region but other games are bigger over there.

Essentially, Valorant has a presence, but it certainly isn't the first pick for a lot of people.

unlucky really lmao

Nah its my bad LMAO. I meant initator meta but I was thinking of how it being a controller meta previously meant that the current meta was better.

nah thats my bad, I'm the idiot here.

times zero; it never happened

never take online iq tests....iq inflation is a real thing

never take online iq tests....iq inflation is a real thing

Controller meta so I guess its an improvement. Postplant controller meta made it 10% about aim.

he's still on the roster but just benched

Pretty accurate assessment lol. It just shows how difficult it is to stay on top of valorant even if you win several games in a row.

This really isn't weird, more so just a small portion of the community being a dick.

Had a chinese character username and basically got harassed to death for having an Chinese character name. Racist remarks and stuff like that were thrown around and how "valorant is the only game I can play because China bans everything else." Bro I ain't even Chinese, I'm taiwanese american kiddo.

Had a funny encounter with a guy talking about lactation.....not going to delve further then that but it was quite interesting.

I heard engineering kills top calc and physics students regardless of your stature which is why I'm decently terrified.

did you just create an alt account for this boost

Will keep that in mind.

I heard engineering is a killer for college as well.

I spent around ~15 gb watching most of challengers 3 stage 1 on my trip + 2 seasons of anime so you should be fine with around 10 or even under that.

dang it
