There's no digging yourself out of this hole

One of those side effects is that camping in smokes with shotguns is less risk same reward

he

😭

I said the same thing until I saw his tracker

I can see it. mwzera havoc heat raafa Khalil is a solid roster and they should have a lot more synergy than LEV currently does

It's what it's

hfmi is what he's usually called

Again, not winning titles ≠ bad player

Also if v1nny is your only problem with LOUD then how are they the worst Brazilian team of all time in your eyes?

dgzin (duelist)
cauanzin (initiator)
v1nny (flex/igl)
pANcada (controller)
tuyz (sentinel)

LOUD not winning anything last year had nothing to do with Saadhak's igling. In fact, he wasn't even igling that much in Stage 2, it was cauanzin helping fill that role on the maps where he was on Neon. But that aside, though, it's not like you can carry a team with good igling. LOUD were clearly very dysfunctional last year despite their player quality, and even though I love Saadhak, if you can put in a worse igl but have better team synergy, then that's an upgrade. And v1nny already has that; he's worked with pANcada and dgzin before.

Also, how is v1nny one of the worst igls? It almost feels like you're biased against this new team. v1nny brought RED Canids to 2nd in Split 1 and 5-6th in Split 2—which isn't "winning anything" but let's be real... winning tournaments isn't exactly a measure of how good a player or team is, anyway. His stats aren't spectacular, sure, but his agent pool is very good and flexibility is something LOUD are in need of. Plus, as mentioned earlier, he already has synergy with half the team.

Yup

Nobody is overrating them, but regardless, how in the world is a team with pANcada cauanzin tuyz the worst Brazilian roster of all time?

You forget how dysfunctional LOUD were in stage 1 compared to their norm. KRU kinda just ran them down

EDG vs. FPX happened 9 times in the past 20 months

For starters, you have NRG going out 0-2

I agree that LOUD is underrated but I don't agree with your pickems

That's not what I... nvm you do you

That makes sense

But Ukraine is included so that doesn't make sense

Ok why are Syria and Armenia not allowed

People have 100T going out 0-2 because their first game is against aspas and then they play the loser of NRG vs. G2/C9

They ain't even got the same role, brother. It'd be Primmie vs. Kadoom

Thank you

100% will be. If not for anything else, we get yay vs. tuyz on first time senti

Hello there

2-1 either way. People will say EG 100% win this but LOUD have a very solid roster and we haven't seen them play yet—I feel this'll be very close and I wouldn't be surprised to see either side take it

The speculation going around is that the sunglasses are to protect his eyes from flashes (i.e. flash initiator)

Ender

kaajak and Keiko were both in the Ascension finals of their respective signing years (both times on Apeks), so that's not exactly the best comparison

A boycott is when a large group of people withdraw from something (i.e. go out of their way to stop paying or supporting a specific brand, cause, or corporation) for a social or political reason. In this case, a bunch of people are boycotting McDonald's for supporting a certain side in a certain war (not gonna go into it, you can look up "mcdonalds boycott" if you're curious)

This is like saying Apeks have an import from Pacific

He had the highest ACS on the team in that final whilst playing 5 agents in 5 maps (none of which were duelists). You can't really blame him for not winning Champs

You're getting downvoted because of your tone but I agree with what you're saying. As bad as we all feel for Rossy, there is an UNFATHOMABLE amount of talent rotting away in the tier 2 circuit. And soulcas was a flash initiator/flex, so Rossy doesn't make all that much sense anyway (unless they're moving MOLSI onto recon)

Yea. They're just reshaping the way they advertise in Canada because so much of the fast food space is taken up by Tim Horton's (and also Tim Horton's are trying savoury options to control that space as well)

Used to be, yeah. But now Tim Horton's a putting a ton of effort into savoury breakfast/lunch options (and McDonald's are putting way too much effort into McCafé in Canada as well)

It quite literally says network problem in the top right

Correct

Not in Canada. Tim Horton's and McDonald's are direct competitors where I live

Tim Horton's clears (idk I like never eat out other than a few shawarma spots and that one pizza place nobody knows about)

PRX playstyle ≠ mindfreak playstyle

And idk cloudberry is crazy lmao

If you limit it to 1 post per day, how are discussions meant to happen?

Eren and slowly too :(

Ty

Oh
Dw it happens

E: doesn't look like an esports logo (doesn't necessarily mean the logo is bad, just looks out of place, like more of a football club or a website or something)

I'm rating these logos on whether I think they're good esports logos or not. Don't get me wrong, I love FURIA's panther, but it's so much better as a sports logo than an esports one

That's why I put it in B... because the current one is alright but an older version was better

Dude what happened 😭

That's like saying Nike's just a checkmark

S+: just a great logo all-round, no changes necessary
S: it's a great logo when you consider the branding, familiarity, and identity
S-: it's a decent logo but what makes it good is how unique it is
A: it's alright, it works well enough, it stands out and people can recognize it
B: old versions or other options or alterations are better but it has enough reputation to work anyway
C: it's pretty bad but at the same time recognizable and therefore fulfills the role of a logo
D: not a fan of the logo or branding or overall look
E: doesn't look like an esports logo (doesn't necessarily mean the logo is bad, just looks out of place, like more of a football club or a website or something)
F: please rebrand immediately (or at least make a new logo)

Individual tiers aren't in order.

You could make an argument for some of them to be placed elsewhere, but this is what I've got

Also, just a note: for KRU I'm assuming they're using the new logo, the one that's been in use since the start of franchising

Oh yeah also TEC was meant to be in D

New 2G logo would go in B
