I wouldn't say that. I'm still very young, and I have much to learn. I'm just on this site because I love Valorant and its Esport scene.

But thanks for the compliment Backoxy! 😀

Well, I could most certainly be less polite... 😐 but it'll probably make me feel very uncomfortable doing so, therefore I will not.

I don't think hater is the right term, because I really haven't done/said anything to invoke the unjust wraths of anyone on this platform (as far as I'm aware).

I don't downvote myself. It's pretty unnecessary to seek attention like that, and to be frank, I don't need to. I am aware that there are people who have beef with me, but I understand that I cannot be on good terms with everyone, no matter how hard I try.

Hi!

Hello vlr community,
It's exam week, and I don't have any exams tomorrow, so I'll be studying for the day. However, I do require human interaction to function at my maximum capabilities, so I would like to kindly request your company in the form of conversations. I shall reply when I can, and your contributions are highly appreciated.
Thank you for your time,
geospliced

edit: I apologize if you are downvoted as a consequence of interacting with me.

Even so, I feel like he's more impactful as an initiator.

FengF is an initiator no?

I never really got into playing CS or watching its Esports. Maybe that's because I wasn't introduced to it early enough/I'm young enough that I missed the train. Who knows? As far as I'm aware, I'll be preferring Valorant for the foreseeable future.

I hope b1sk plays well.

They look pretty decent, as far as I'm aware.

B all the way.

But of course, anyth1ng 😀👍

That's not necessarily what I meant, and it would go against my morals/ethics to make oral contact with others at this age.

It's the winter, and it's quite cold outside these days. It's important to stay warm during a season with such temperatures, and if I could I would most certainly help you warm up.

They're all transition metals, so they can only gift electrons.

Sometimes the chemistry just don't work between players. Ig it could probably be compared to moving into a new location of residence. Sometimes it just isn't the same.

He really is just too good to be warming the bench.

I think he's talking about knight the JDG LPL player.

That's a lot of songs!

Yeah, my music taste fluctuates often so I tend to make smaller playlists for each month.

They're sorted by year and month. For example, 24 1-2 would translate to "2024 January-February".

Enjoy!

Yup!

I don't follow LPL, but if that's what they're doing over there I think it'd be a fantastic idea to implement. You're really cooking. 👍

I don't know if it's logistically possible, but how about a smaller tournament with the same idea as Champions but with the lower placed teams?

Thank you for correcting me. I forgot to take that into account when making my comment. I'll try my best to not make this mistake again. 😀

I mean, it's pretty visible in some teams. Look at what happened to EDG towards the end of the off season.

We're already getting more games than last season, so I'm not exactly complaining. However, I do see your point here and I somewhat agree with it.

What I usually do, especially when my teammates are being super passive and we're just wandering around without a real goal/destination, is make some simple callouts that focus around teamplay. Here's some example callouts I use pre-round on Split attack side if nobody is doing anything of significance:

• Let's fast push A/B site with heavy util usage
• Let's all go mid and instantly break sage wall to kill (situational).
• Let's put pressure on vents and split B heaven
• Let's do a 2/3 mid and A push.
• I smoke off A main and we fast push ramps to get a pick.
  etc
  etc
  etc

I don't think Masters Madrid is a Mickey Mouse tournament.

Thanks! I like conut as well.

It's hard sometimes, but you should talk to people who can help you. There are many nice folks all around and sometimes, finding the right one to talk to and let all your feelings out can do wonders. I hope you decide to continue living, and I'm sorry I can't help you as much as I'd like to.

When I was 8 my Minecraft username was LightningGamer95, which evolved into POPPLIOGAMER95 when I was 10 and got into Roblox and Pokemon. It soon turned into all sorts of variations of NekoP_(insertword) because I thought it was a unique name. Last but not least, geospliced is the most recent iteration of my gamertag and I don't decide on changing it anytime soon.

Quite possibly! They're looking pretty darn good atm.

Great question! It's hard to pick due to the wide variety, but I'm probably going to have to go with lasagne alla bolognese. It is by far the best pasta dish (in my opinion) I have ever had in my life and I highly suggest you try it if you get the chance.

Honorable mentions to pasta carbonara (bacon egg sauce), spaghetti alle vongole (clam spaghetti), cotoletta milanese (fried veal cutlet), and tiramisu.

I didn't state this, but that's a skill issue on my behalf. I rate Boaster a 10/10 because he comes up with nice strats, is a great IGL (motivational), has a great personality, sings very well, and interacts with the community in a positive way among other aspects that I think he excels in. Of course, his skill isn't all that bad.

Yeah, I understand the point you're getting at here. It really is just my fault that I didn't explicitly mention the fact that those number ratings I gave those players aren't based on stats whatsoever.

I really just have to focus on improving my communication skills, especially in a place like the internet where everyone can have varying interpretations of my words. I've made a couple confusing/misleading comments on this site as of late, and while I do appreciate discussion and criticism, the ideal situation for me is one where I am able to convey my ideas coherently and clearly, thus not having to apologize for any mistakes made.

Thank you for the insightful video though! Great watch.

And I appreciate every single one of you who do! Thank you Breloof.

hi bronzil!

I try my best to make my presence meaningful and positive for everyone, and while this is not the desired outcome for myself, the fact that there are people questioning these downvotes like you make me remember all the nice people on this site. Once I do that, the downvotes really stop meaning anything.

Not at all. I simply expressed an obvious observation and I think anyone else could've done the same.

That's precisely my point, and I really do sincerely apologize if I made it unclear, which in this case seems to be the case.
Let me make it brief so I can finalize all the Demon1 discussions I have had in the past few days.

• I don't think he's the best player (outside game).
• He is the best player (in game).
• He's goated af.

It's literally just like your example statement about James. However, in my case I don't hate Demon1.
No hard feelings, this whole shabang has came into existance due to my lack of mastery over English and I apologize for any misunderstandings.
Best regards,
geospliced

I never tried to impose it in any way 😱

Lol

I am not old enough to participate in such activities, so I tend to avoid topics surrounding it when possible. It's nothing personal cartixuzi 😀

Well, it's all subjective isn't it?
To me, the definition of a player encapsulates more than just skill. I think Demon1 is a highly composed player who does not succumb to pressure and is extremely lethal in gunfights. I don't deny that he might be if not the best duelist we have seen in ages. My personal philosophy and beliefs or whatever involves evaluating professional e/sport athletes as a whole person. Be it in game, or in reality. For example, I care a lot about sportsmanship, and while some people might care less as they find it entertaining or banter, I don't, and that's a me thing. Therefore, I do rate Demon1 less because of the behavior he has displayed on the international stage. However, I'm not saying he's a bad person or whatever, he just isn't the kind of character I enjoy watching, and that's completely on me! We are all entitled to our own opinions and the least we can do is respect one another.
Cheers Asuna Yuuki.

There goes BLGs season.

Hey beaver man, it's just my personal opinion, and the fact that he was one of the main reasons I stuck around with TL for so long alone should give him 3 points.

Well, I'm sorry if I made myself appear pompous, as that was not my intention and I most certainly do not see my opinions as more important than others. I was simply answering the question, which was "How would you rate Demon1 from 1-10". I just rated him how I rate every other player, and I do believe I stated quite frankly that I believe "his aim is unrivaled". Therefore you could probably extrapolate that if based on skill alone I'd easily rate Demon1 a 10/10, and I apologize if I didn't make it clear. Demon1 is an amazing player skillwise and I don't mean to undercredit him in anyway.

Also, I don't believe I ever requested to copulate with you, and it saddens me to see you interpret my words that way.
Cheers cartixuzi, I enjoy talking to you a bit more than you may think.
