No one cares about it, therefore the pros don't care as much, therefore it isn't important. And when will AI users realize that using AI makes them even less trustworthy than saying nothing?

win + get grouped vs lose + get grouped

liar, he’s clearly sitting

what did end do to you

im so excited to see their run, unfortunately i don't think they have a chance in the grand finals because of their 2-stadium ban disadvantage

let’s nerf clove again

ily cameran u always speak the truth

the embarrassing part is that this was definitely an emdash before, so he actually tried to hide it lmao

this isn't about politics, it just means they are grouping all teams into the same pool, and "China" is the best possible name for that pool

there are 40 partnered teams and only 10 partnership-era masters/champs btw

Soccer is a game played on a big field where two groups try to move a round ball into a net. The ball rolls on the ground, and the players move it mostly by kicking it. Only one special player on each group is allowed to use hands, and that player stays near the net to stop the ball from going in. Everyone else runs around the field trying to keep the ball, pass it to teammates, or take it away from the other group. When the ball goes into the net, that counts as a point.

The game keeps going with both groups moving back and forth across the field, trying to score more points before the time ends. The ball stays on the ground most of the time, and the players move almost all the time. There are simple rules that keep the game fair, such as not pushing others and not touching the ball with hands unless allowed. The whole activity is built around running, kicking, and trying to put the ball into the net while the other group tries to stop it.

you seem to forget the results of the last 5 champs

and FUT beat FS so basically there's 3 teams worse than them

just watch stage 1 then

no nobody got mad, but then riot said screw your 3 hours of preparation and everyone got mad

theres a 48% chance of this happening btw, assuming coinflips for each match

0/8, i refuse to believe anyone is stupid enough to think the draw is related to how many teams go 1-0 to 2-0

yes you asked a question on vlr anyone can answer those 😭😭😭

did u click the link

might have been me sorry, the upvote and downvote buttons are really close to each other

im a korea fan too but it's not that deep, cheer on your region and worry about them in stage 2

nuthoneycheerios

n-word

is she gonna stay unnerfed ALL of stage 1?? kill me if so

this is actually a pretty good system! if we can make it 12 teams i would definitely be in support. the downsides are that it's confusing to casual players, and you can't prepare ahead of time. but this does fit the sweet spot of most teams playing 6-7 (haha) games, with only two teams playing 4.

another curiosity: which games should be BO5? the 3-0 game (qualification match) should be a BO5, but then you would have teams doing a BO5 then doing a non-BO5 after, which is a bit weird

i'm not saying we power creep past prime chamber, tejo, and jett, we just want 11.08 reverted bro. if you like precise gunplay, go play cs, i play val because of the util

(i wrote this before seeing your bracket, i'll comment on that at the end)

i don't really like quad elim because early wins matter so much more than late wins. for example, a team with a bye only needs to win 2 games before they have 4 chances to qualify. new bracket for reference (here they are seeded 1 (a) to 12 (l) and the higher seed wins each time):

-----------------------------------------------------
el . de . . . . ad . . . . . . . . . . . ab . a
fk . cf . . . . bc
gj . bg
hi . ah
-----------------------------------------------------
. . . hl . eh . ce . . . . . . . cd . bc . b
. . . gk . fg . df
. . . fj
. . . ei
-----------------------------------------------------
. . . il . gi . eg . . . . . ef . de . cd . c
. . . jk . hj . fh
-----------------------------------------------------
. . . . . . ik . hi . gh . fg . ef . de . d
. . . . . . jl . gj

a team with a bye could go WWLLLW and qualify (3-3), while a non-bye team could go WLLWLWWWWWL (7-4) and not qualify.

naturally, the fix would be something swiss-like, like in the traditional 16-team swiss where each win and loss is equally important. however, this is of course difficult with only 12 teams, more than 3-5 games per team, and only picking 4 to advance. (for example, the T2 swiss stages, which require 4 wins to advance, have a weird 3-2 vs 2-3 matchup in the middle, and there would only be more of this when you deviate further.)

okay so now that i saw your bracket: i can't really understand what's going on here? two teams disappear in bracket 2, round 4; the arrows from bracket 2, round 5 point to nothing; and one team magically appeared in bracket 4, round 6. another issue arises with trying to fit our current 12 teams, since deleting 4 teams from this bracket has some bad effects down the line (e.g. two teams in bracket 3, round 4 get a bye while the others don't). however, i like how this addresses my issue of upper bracket matches "skipping to the right" a ton, as it did in my bracket, so if we can work this out that i am all for it!

can we stop nerfing and start buffing please

istp

nah bro its not, otherwise i would be gay

if wikipedia is a bad source, try any of the dictionaries:
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/metric%20system
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/metric-system
https://www.britannica.com/science/metric-system-measurement
nobody uses the words "metric system" to refer to any other measurement system.

if you want to talk about the precise nature of language and meanings of words, there's a reason why it's called a measurement system, not a metric system.
"measurement system" = how do we measure things? what unit should we use to measure distance, mass, etc?
"metric system" = how do we evaluate things? which formulae are a good measurement of performance, quality, etc?

i know they're similar words, but "metric" is never used in the very general sense of measuring something with units. "The length measurement of my cylinder is 4 inches" is fine, "The length metric of my cylinder is 4 inches" sounds like you're trying to evaluate how good your cylinder is selling on amazon and you think length is a good thing to look for. other sentences that sound unsemantic to me: "the stopwatch found the time metric", "she used the pound metric instead of the kilogram metric", "this ruler has the wrong metric"

to be fair, everyone speaks their own slightly different version of english, and if "metric system" makes sense in that context to you, good for you. but as far as i can tell, most english speakers do not recognize your definition of "metric".

i think ur thinking about "system of measurement"? correct me if i'm wrong though, wikipedia tells me the metric system doesn't just mean "any system with metrics"

give it up bro, life is admitting u were wrong

i normally dont like your posts berlinglazer... but ty for this one. meow 😿😿😿

i'd say you give miks to EITHER the musician guests (since it's fitting) OR the best players (to showcase his full kit/ult), they kind of gave it to random people...

i genuinely believed you and checked the score, they lost 13-2 bro

exactly, clove is already full of people pretending to fill smokes when they don't care about their team... now their combat ability is barely affected while being even LESS useful to their team
