AfteR is drunk.

TES vs RNG, 7th versus 8th, and I think it is fair to say that both teams have decent players with similar levels of skill. I do think that RNG will win this one, TES is a relatively new team, and RNG have had more experience playing against teams like FPX, BLG, TE, and EDG. I just finished attending the TES/EDG game, and I saw some very nice things from TES on Sunset, and I think that if they can consistently replicate that form then they stand a good chance at beating RNG. However, since I still have my doubts that they can do that, I think RNG could win 2-1 but it will be very close.
RNG 2-1 win.

This is the right one. vo0kashu vs watasink, the battle of the Russian imports. Of course, I think that it is safe to say that vo0kashu wins that one, which is exactly why watasink has brought along his Belarusian sidekick diseased! I think it makes total sense, and I'm looking forward to it. Over the course of these tournaments, I've grown very attached to Dragon Ranger Gaming. I know that this has nothing to do with analysis or whatever, but I'd like to tell a story of a young boy who really wanted to become a paleontologist, and watched a lot of Jurassic Park and stuff. That was me a couple of years ago, and DRG's logo really reminds me of a dinosaur creature!

Okay. I know I didn't explain jack this time, but DRG win. I don't know what LGD's going to pull but I know that DRG will win. 2-0 or 2-1 I'm not sure I think it's like a 50/50.

Okay, all my comments I posted yesterday seem to have ended up on the wrong series... I don't know how that happened but I apologize for any inconveniences.

I mean, yeah but then we have to subtract even more people from all the other nations in the Pacific because obv not everyone is going to know and play valorant. Nonetheless, I understand what you mean, but I was just being consistent with the first comment and simply subtracting entire populations.

It's a rematch between BLG and TEC, as BLG should be looking to dominate TEC like they did LGD. I think the skill gap between these two teams are quite large, and considering that BLG put up a good fight against ASE (except for the 1st map), I think it's safe to say that BLG should be closing this one out 2-0.
2-0 BLG win.

This is the right one... I'd like to say that the 17G win against these guys on 11/03 was a fluke, and I really do think it is! AAAAY expressed his confidence in the player interviews, and said "if you want to watch an FPX match and you don't know which to watch, just book a ticket for the grand finals." Well, if he and FPX really want to get to the grand finals, I think a dominant 2-0 here would be ideal.
Anyways, skill-wise, FPX beats 17G. 2-0 FPX win.

Oh man I commented on the wrong series! How have I let this happen?

I was a young Liquid fan, quite some time ago. I was naive and full of false hope. The hope that would die with the team as I watch them slowly deteriorate. It was unbearable. But the 2024 season is about to begin, and I think it is safe for me to say that I no longer have any expectations, even though a buried part of me dream of seeing the team I pledged allegiance to succeed. moatz, I just want to say that I understand what you're saying completely. Thank you.

You'd be surprised at how many I get wrong lol...

My goal/dream is to make a perfect pick'em for a main competition such as Masters or Champs.

But India is part of Pacific region?
And I'm pretty sure India's population is 1.4 billion

Haodong, Biank, Boaster, Saadhak, etc etc FNS and Boostio sometimes too

It's definitely better than mine lol, I like most of it, but I think you're just putting a bit too much hope in DRG. I like them too but I think they'd have a hard time against FPX and BLG.

I've got a feeling that it's gonna be a wonderful day

I've never tried BBQ with pizza... And roasted bell peppers are very good indeed.

That does sound very busting.

Interesting... I've actually never tried putting Mortadella on pizza before. We mostly put prosciutto on our pizzas but ig one day I'll see to it that Mortadella appears on my pie. Sausage and onion is great, I've never tried a pizza with garlic cream sauce before.
Pineapples are indeed very inconsistent with pizza, sometimes they're great other times they're just straight up bad.
And yeah Provel cheese on pizza? No way jose.

If you go to pick'ems there's a link you can copy and share :)

Who doesn't like a little spice?

I rarely see people put bacon on pizza, but I guess if so many people say it's good then it must be good!

I mean, who the heck would put blue cheese in a burger in the first place? That's just distasteful

Fair enough. Blue cheese is good in moderation tho. I agree with the rest of your statements.

It's amazing. I actually really like it. However, I will probably get bullied at school/verbally abused by strangers if I said that in public or smth

Yeah

Yeah they do be salty but if you're having a pizza by the beach nothing beats a fish-topped pizza lol

Oh I see that sounds quite delectable :)

Which one was your favorite?

parmegiano reggiano is bussin'

Parma ham is amazing. Parma is a pretty boring town tho lol

Favorite cheese? or all cheese good

Very interesting! Do you do it homemade? or is there a restaurant that sells pizza with mushroom, cheese, and bbq?

They're actually surprisingly difficult to use as a pizza topping. I'm convinced now that you must completely dry out the mushrooms to have a nice mushroom pizza. Otherwise the water retention ability of the mushroom will just make the pizza super soggy and that's awful.

I had a Papa John's pizza when I visited the US. It had a jalapeno pepper and I actually did try eating it with the pizza. It was pretty good. Bacon and cream cheese I've never tried. I think anchovies are alright depending on the mood lol.

That... actually sounds pretty good. Did you add it to the pizza (I'm assuming regular cheese and tomato sauce) after baking or before baking?

Those are delicious options.

Dear vlr community,

Salutations! I hope this forum finds you well. I was wondering, what foods do you like/dislike on your pizzas? For example, one of my favorite pizza toppings is buffalo mozarella (a type of cheese from a cow-like bovine) , but I hate having olives on my pizza.
What about you?

Best regards,
geospliced

Actually, the population would actually only be around 2.5 billion because Middle East and China + other Chinese regions take away from the population.

But the 0 trophies OMEGALUL Clap I think holds water.

Governor okay, lenne...?

Ult should probably be 9 ult points at least... Valorant movement isn't very fast and shift-walking could be pivotal in clutch matches/hiding position. To slow everything down to half speed could be very overpowered. Either that, or make the slow effect less (like 3/4th the speed) or shorten the duration, which would be a bit too much.
C is kinda weird. So, what would happen if you used a wormhole less than 30 seconds into a match? Does the trajectory work like a sova dart? Or is it more like a fade eye/gekko molly?
Q is pretty nice, so like, utilizing the move player code more (like iso ult) kind of?
E is interesting, but that seems challenging to code and it also sounds very susceptible of bugs.

I mean, I screwed up the TE-FPX match so y'know, we all got moments where we make the wrong choice, and you know what? It's okay! Pick'ems are just and will always only be just that: pick'ems. No stakes, no nothing. You'll get it next time brother!

Wait, I know The Search by NF and BZRP Music Sessions #52 by Quevedo. I think those are rap songs, so yeah that's cool ig.

But you must know some rap right? Like, do you know any famous artists in the rap genre? Like, I've heard of eminem and some scott guy but I never really got into it.

I mean, they were a great team. My mates and I always made sure to catch their matches back in the day. Such a shame what happened happened...

Okay I'll admit it, I barely know anything about rap. I remember listening to a famous rap song once a couple years back and I also listened to some british guy speak very fast but that was about it. Do you have any recommendations?

gambit will always be playing in our hearts.

Pick up a violin and play me some fucking Vivaldi to prove to me that you are going to create music instead of sputtering/yapping like a tea kettle/chihuahua lol.
Jk but if you really want to get into rapping then I think you should listen to some famous rap music or something. That always helps!

That is not my intent but I guess it is indeed a byproduct of this little hobby of mine lol. Thanks!

I just love DRG I don't know what more to say they're very likable :)

vo0kashu vs watasink, the battle of the Russian imports. Of course, I think that it is safe to say that vo0kashu wins that one, which is exactly why watasink has brought along his Belarusian sidekick diseased!
