For real I would rather see my goat Jamppi win Champs than a CN team

you know what you did

Yes my dear, you might just be the reincarnation of Sherlock Holmes, for it is true! The fact that none of the teams I support won/made deep runs means that it will be but a faded memory with no positive emotional attachment to. The CN teams bombed, Jamppi didn't make it to the finals, and NRG didn't pull off a funny. Life is tough sometimes.

TH boys winning a trophy was nice and all but it's all subjective and it is with sorrowful acceptance that I think of what could've been Fnatic's 3rd international trophy. Still a fun tournament to follow and watch.

I dont know what offseason events you watched where all the best teams in the world at their peak level duke it out at 100%. I wish those existed

The EWC!

Format and production were my biggest issues but I think the event felt too low in prestige to be hyped over. Matches came and go and while I understand the financial benefit it brings to players and teams, personally as a viewer it just felt like every other big off-season tourney (ex. SOOP, Radiant Asia, etc)

facts

I'm 17 and an individual of the "children" demographic you speak of, feel free to ask questions.

I hope they do great for the rest of the season but I really hope BBL can make a run because they have Jamppi and he's the reason why I sport this flair in the first place

I'm just coping hard because none of the teams I support won

Touché lol

Yeah

Richer teams that have deep pockets and are focusing on champs/regionals?

Some people haven't been exposed to CS before Valo so it's fair to assume that they haven't

It's easy to write it off as a highly legit tourney if you use that logic but being before Champs and having essentially no prestige to back itself, only the teams that care more about money are going to seriously compete for the title.

Go for it haha

FNC vs LOUD was better in every regard except for the fact that TH got curb stomped on the first 2 maps

Facts

IT'S TIME FOR BERLIN TO LEAD FPX TO GLORY

You deserve a pass on this one. Just learn your lesson for the future

Yeah good job to them :p

?

FNC sweeps 13-5

Fr that happywei guy makes me happy when I see him pop off

AAAAY that guy's a headshot laser

Thanks for everyones suggestions! 🫶

PLEASE TELL ME YOU NAMED IT MEGATRON🥺🥺🥺

Hi vlr.gg,

before I go to bed I would like to ask for anyone who cooks food at home to drop some dish recommendations. Im going to the grocery store tomorrow to buy ingredients in the hopes of improving my cooking skills.

Best, geospliced

Over the course of my life and various observations I’ve made it might be Hellas Verona (the football club)

Thank you for this opportunity!

You don't deserve that flair

Spilt milk will never be the same even if it makes its way into its former vessel

It is very true indeed

Yeah they're definitely not playing the way they used to. It feels like as if they aren't having fun or smth imo

XLG and TEC are lower table teams and can easily be replaced with Wolves and FPX

They didn't have their best teams at the tourney but yes

I don't. I just like sauces and flavorful cuisines.

Top 5 not in order:
Italian
French
Chinese
Japanese
Indian

Let them hate, we live in their heads rent free

I'll take this L

There's something uncanny about the crowd...

As long as they perform in the real tournaments

It feels like off season EDG

My sun might’ve set already but that is not a reason to call me washed.

Top 6 at Tokyo and LA

Idk we need to see more from JDG

whzy is going to do absolutely nothing and still win

I think they can retain their ascension slot as long as they make playoffs too so let’s hope that they do!

To be honest I would throw my hands up in disappointment if XLG qualified for champs looking the way they look now. EDG played very disconnected today and I hope they can fix that soon. The rest I agree with 💯

Serial chokers but we still need to support them for being a fun team (and cute logo) 🥰

I think 4th is a solid place to place them right now, what about you? 😄

Thanks to Kaust for some discussion and insights
