eliminate the competition

He’s already doing that tho with Chamber and Astra/Brim, but if you’re asking him to switch off Jett when he’s top 2 with aspas rn then that would be a bit too crazy

“there’s always next year womp womp 😁”

💀

this bait might get motion

but the seeding clearly isn’t pointless if a team gets an advantage over others for their performance last year though, how is randomizing it not more fair overall?

There shouldn’t be any seedings at all lol, it’s the first VCT tournament, what opportunity is there for teams to be already seeded it makes no sense whatsoever

I literally don’t give a shit where EG end up my guy you’re not understanding the purpose of the post at all. EG was just an example, like do you seriously think it’s fair that FNC, PRX, etc get a seeding advantage for their placements in an already done and dusted season?

The format itself is dogshit of course but this aspect of it is by far the worst no? In what world is this even remotely fair? Why is it that a team that had a disappointing year has to go to a new season at a big disadvantage bc of it like what? This part of the format convinces me 100% that the entire planning was half assed bc it literally makes no sense at all, there’s nothing holding up the integrity of competition from this decision at all when we can’t even provide teams a fresh start as they head straight into an important tourney

I’ve seen mfs trying to justify the format by saying stuff like “oh but it makes sense that EG get an advantage bc they won Champs” like what? Did VCT 2023 not end or smth? Is this year VCT 2023 Part II?

Red’s been overdone ngl you should be happy

EDG, BLG, JDG, weibo, TES, FPX, IG, LNG, RA, RNG, OMG, WE, LGD. Now take out the teams that r wrong and there’s ur answer it’s too ez

spam

There’s a documentary about his life you can find on YT, he mentions that his dad introduced him to UT in the US (specifically Brooklyn if I remember) and that it was his first FPS.

ppl who unironically believe in DNA diff have to be challenged is all I’m gonna say

double comment

Demon1 has literally no roots of playing FPS’ in Russia though from what he’s told us. We’re implementing his Russian heritage in a completely unrelated topic which makes no sense here.

But he wasn’t immersed in gaming during his time in Russia at all, we’re basing this purely off blood when his culture within gaming is entirely American

Demon1 has never touched an FPS in Russia, his first FPS was Unreal Tournament when he was in the states, so unless you think that this shit is literally genetic then no it’s just a culture thing

demon1 and demon1s team

this is divine retribution for the LCS watchers that begged RIot to make a better esport yearly format (im one of them). I'm sorry Riot.

or 3, or 4, or 6

if you stop posting these updates can we assume that you've died?

are we chatgpt

No and if that happens to me then i dry it up bc i dont want my hands wet

jawg is the goat that team is good, only brain dead ppl and bots that follow those brain dead ppl rate them as a bottom team.

"BUT BUT BUT EG IS A BAD OR G ! 1 1 1 1 THAT MEAN ! THAT MEAN THAT THE S E ! ! PLAYERS R GONNA BE BA D ! 1 1 !! THEY R THE WORST TEAM IN V CT! ! 1 1 !" actual robots i stg

but what are u even talking about rn

nrg vs sen please please the viewership would skyrocket

:)

SEN bc zellsis will use the power of friendship and good vibes to motivate his team to not pass out

ngl i didnt even think about the gc players being in the contest that was kinda funny

it was funny tho teehee

you've changed 💔💔💔

see thats way better but hold back on the insults a bit and make yourself sound like your reasonable to reach to that bit of audience that would instantly call bait if you say shit like "Ethan is a bodyshot crouchspray merchant", the title also has to be more direct for the ppl that haven't clicked on the thread yet, like in your case it should be something like "EG's players are overrated" or "C0M and Boostio will fail" for a bit of spice. Also make sure you never half ass any slander whatsoever, don't praise Ethan by saying that he has great util usage after allat, its either you leave out the praise or barely mention him at all.

With the stats bit, specifically cherry pick the worst ones you can find and elaborate on it if you wanna go the extra mile. I like what you did with the Boostio and c0m bit but try and stretch that bit out bc that's the juicy part of the thread since those are the ppl you're calling frauds. Praising Demon1 and Jawg for most of the thread the title is called "frauds (serious)" doesn't make sense no?

Be creative with it and sound as genuine as possible (very important), it doesn't matter if you sound stupid as fuck, if you make ppl believe that what you're saying is what you're actually thinking then it worked. I like what ur doing with the replies too though gj on that, but a weak thread won't attract enough comments for you to reply to.

https://www.vlr.gg/292426/why-sen-is-the-true-na-superteam this is the good example of a decent bait thread, but if you want to maximize as much traction as possible, get creative with it like what the same OP did here https://www.vlr.gg/291493/na-this-year-has-been-awful

how about instead of making some shitty bait at least try to sound genuine. pro tip is to make the thread lengthy + include real information onto why the ppl you are calling frauds are actually frauds with a sprinkle of straight lies so the majority are convinced that you're being serious. It's not hard to make ppl genuinely upset on this site bro but you think bait threads are all about defending yourself in the comments which is lazy af

is your bait demographic infants or what bro, pls dont tell me u found this funny enough to post

:)

he deserved it right

Jawgemo 1v9 according to vlr

Make it 3-0 + the fastest international Bo5 for no reason in particular

they broadening the appeal to the game for now, I don’t expect them to make bundles about it 24/7 of course but we should be expecting CN New Year bundles as the norm now to start with. Seeing as how popular CrossFire is over there, Riot knows that their game has the potential to be even bigger than League’s and they’re not gonna choke a multi-billion dollar opportunity like that.

what I don’t understand is why the fk is the tournament so short when it’s for qualifications to Masters lol, like why not start just start this shit earlier

at some point in the future this game is gonna be completely ran by china too don’t get it twisted, all the culture references that’s been going on since the game’s debut there from the bundles and whatnot are not a coincidence these mfs want some easy millions $$$

But they have been doing business with China, Riot is not only owned by Tencent but the entire country comfortably makes up more than half of their revenue and player base mainly from LoL. China has so many seeds bc the country is not only big af but brings in the revenue relevance like the the other regions that smth like India doesn’t have.

real but that shit gets way too addicting

happiness of course that shit tasted like heaven

Tarik couldn’t find a sponsor if I remember + pros stopped playing on it anyways bc of ego. The idea itself isn’t dead of course but now we’ve learned that pros that used to beg for smth like this just didn’t like playing on it anymore idk.

ngl now that I think about it that shit doesn’t make it any better at all, new year new teams no? Why are we even bringing last years seeding into consideration for a completely new season in the first place. When tf does the reset happen.

the fact that it wasn’t clarified though rly worries me

so are the teams in group A and B picked at random or smth? What’ll happen if LEV, NRG, and LOUD are all in the same group like is it just a region nerf for Masters or what.

Since this tournament is the direct qualifications to Masters this shit is do or die and ngl ion fuck with this format bc of it. I already didn’t like how the season was planned out months ago but now it’s rly hitting me

i know you see me standing here
