I spent 6+ months using anki for SRS and I only realised a few weeks ago that I was literally not learning anything because it was boring to me. I found out my brain just doesnt work when something is boring to me. Instead I have been been building a database of all language and grammar and just by making this, which is something I enjoy doing because im a massive nerd, I realised how much more it stuck with me. Just wanna say if you're having trouble with anki or SRS, try to make it into something you enjoy rather than a chore you have to do everyday and its insane how much better you'll take in information.

once the leagues start up again, 100% you can

Duelists: (pretty unbalanced)
ISO: either the ability to stop the wall or a complete rework to his signature
Reyna: no change needed, keep as ranked demon
Neon: wall can damage enemies and stun pops quicker
Phoenix: remove wall for new ability
Jett: no changes needed
Raze: satchels do no damage to players, can still break util but deal reduced damage to util

Initiators: (unbalanced just because of skye, kill the character please)
Sova: no changes needed
Fade: increase eye range slightly, increase fov of prowler
Breech: no changes needed
Kayo: hopefully fix the fucking kay/o knife bug
Skye: 1 flash with shorter cooldown, maybe a change to her heal but not sure what that could be
Gekko: pets stay on the ground a bit longer

Controllers: (very well balanced other than viper)
Harbor: no changes needed
Viper: 1s gap between orb and wall activation (might kill agent but im down for that)
Brimstone: no changes needed
Omen: no changes needed after flash speed increased in recent patch
Astra: no changes needed

Sentinels: (main sentinels are good, stall sentinels need changes)
Cypher: trip re-arm time slightly increased
KJ: no changes needed
Chamber: no changes needed (people sleep on chamber tbh)
Sage: either a rework or stay the same as a ranked agent
Deadlock: sound trips cannot be seen by enemies until tripped

everyone talks about how jjk is the best anime ever made but to me its just another kinda forgettable shounen with good animation

a koalas main diet is toxic, hard to chew one of the least nutritious food on the planet. They eventually eat so much that their teeth degrade because of how shit their choice of food is that they starve to death because they wont eat other foods. They also sleep 20 hours a day and eat 3-4 hours a day. That is all they do

already watched it mr netero, 2nd favourite anime of the year behind Heavenly Delusion gonan be so sad if it doesnt get a season 2

idk what it is but I feel like there is too much information thrown at you to remember. A friend told me to go watch season 2 because it is peak (I thought season 1 had insane animation but didnt really like it because it didnt gel with me) and I thought the exact same with season 2. I will admit I didnt watch all of season 2 because I just didnt have time and wanted to continue watching one piece (sorry to the guy I made fun of for watching one piece its actually pretty good) but I dont like the characters at all. None of the characters really left an impact on me and I feel like theyre pretty forgettable if im being honest. I can see why people like it but it really is just not for me, animation is insane though, MAPPA slaving away those animators to make some insane shit

my aim is 90% of the time best in the server, agent pool because I can play every agent (-astra -cypher) and ranked "igling" is solid but I tilt bad when people do not listen to me when I know that if they did listen we wouldve won the round

zeta deserved top 3 with the way they played that tourney

zander is the best to watch for learning imo

losing aspas is huge though, was (imo) always their best player, not exactly the same as the other losses. losing a duelist is different as well, the duelist is often the player that sets the tempo with the igl, the new duelist needs a lot of time to adjust to the way saadhak plays and calls. Im not saying they wont be as good eventually but I do expect them to struggle massively (in comparison to last year) this season especially in the early season and thats why its fair to underrate them for a while

you did lose one of 2 star players tho, I feel like its fair to underrate them a bit until season start

even when I do turn off chat, I feel like im throwing as well. Idk what to do in mid or late game and it sucks feeling like im throwing every game

Ive wanted to play for a while and with the new season starting it would be a good time but every time I play, I get lost after laning phase and get flamed like crazy. How do I actually get into league and not go through the 1000's of "How to play League" because they only go over laning phase

vanity will be good, idk where the thought of him being shit came from but he is super solid igl'ing wise

derrek had a wreck of a year, eeiu currently is 200x better

zeek sadly

thats exactly where I saw my first gameplay of it as well lmaoo

love the first game, really mixed feelings on the second one though

roguelikes: 2500 hours on binding of isaac, 800+ hours on slay the spire
tactical shooters: 3000 hours on CS, 1500 hours on val, 1000 hours on siege (hate this shit now tho)
RPG/JPRG: disco elysium (favourite ever game), xenoblade 1/2/3 (never played X), FF7(R), FF8, FFX, every zelda game pretty much (wind waker is the best imo but is probably mixed with heavy nostalgia, if they dont go back to dungeon based games im gonna be very very sad), Ni no Kuni 1
fighting games: SFIII 3rd strike, SF6, Tekken, Skullgirls

• whatever genre monster hunter fits into got into it when rise came out on pc and played all of world, iceborne, rise and sunbreak since and planning to go back to older games like GU

unless derke has the falloff of the century I doubt it, he's gonna be the KRIMZ of valorant for fnatic and just stay there his whole career

.1. Chinese | 2. Japanese | 3. Irish (only for breakfast though)

the sensor actually stunning people now is huge

aproto over add3r imo but idek if aproto has a team for T2 next year which is crazy

why would they have upcoming map change images in the game files though?

super happy to see nitr0 back, NA legend

I believe ValorLeaks does work with Riot and gets a lot of publicity to upcoming changes, images such as the map changes couldn't have been datamined (I dont think?) and they were the exact same as the official Riot ones

That has always been the case but this would just make it 5x worse.

Also for fighting games, one of the biggest regions in the world is Pakistan. If Saudi Arabia becomes the "hub", many of these players would either stop going to nationals to fund the Saudi Arabia trip or not have enough money to go at all. With the way it currently works it is better, it is not good and the rich do have it easier but there are still chances the way it is now and I do not want it to change to a "hub".

One of the biggest problems to me, specifically for fighting games but also applies to many genres, is the absurd amounts of money. Smaller scenes are going to see a fall off in the number attending as people will need to save money to go to Saudi Arabia every year for their chance to win big. If it continues, it will fully kill the smaller scenes and new talent will be much, much harder to find. People are going to have to become known through online and that is nowhere near the same consistency as in person at smaller events. A lot of people who are poorer will simply not be able to go to these events in Saudi Arabia without sponsors and local tourneys won't exist.

TO's are also going to be massively impacted by this, many of them will simply have to change job because they won't be getting the same numbers of entries which means less sponsors which means no money to run the event. Video games should not have a "hub" for esports. Video games are world-wide and cannot be condensed into a smaller area without the need for lots of money on both the country, which yes they are willing to invest but also the competitors. I really hope this shit stops because it will hurt the general population of many big titles' esports players, so many people won't be able to compete that should get the chance to compete. Esports will become a "between the richer people, who is the best?", rather than simply who is the best.

Yes and when it is flat, it cures a cold

hasnt had a negative k/d game since november holy

vitality definitely better than liquid, giants and liquid on the same level imo

fnatic flusha

make it to 2024

he was the best IGL in EMEA before + he is insanely clutch for fnatic

tbf what is the fade doing

I seen somewhere he was going to Vitality but who is leaving Vitality for him? I don't really wanna see Kicks be pushed to 6th man but he probably won't be taking raze

AMERICAS / LEV & NRG

EMEA / FNC & VIT (maybe Giants here)

APAC / PRX & T1

CN / EDG & FPX

Not sure if it recency bias but Frieren is genuinely incredibly well written

Summertime Render
Made in Abyss
Heavenly Delusion
The Promised Neverland (ONLY SEASON 1, THE REST IS SHIT)

yeah just shows how good saadhak's leadership skills are

for boaster he seems pretty momentum based, if he ever loses a bo3 or a bo5 they always look worse next game

a chair and a throat infection :D

johnqt and saadhak my favourite players from NA

teasing master takagi san and yuru camp

unironically mario kart wii

it sucks for those 4 though because likely wouldve left EG without contract jail and they wouldve been treated much, much better

Are potter, c0m, jawgemo and screwface staying? If they are, I would argue the team could still be very strong if they pick up the right players

sick roster, if they can get around IGL issues then easily best NA team

no problem, just remember it isnt a sprint, its a marathon. It could take a very long time before understanding even 50% of the sentences but it is incredibly rewarding when you can. Good luck bro
