Don't worry. Today is going to be a crashout day. I'm sure you'll see me make someone angry.
Bait thread and a PSA.
Don't you find it funny you can't remember this famous pros name? I do. Maybe they ain't famous anymore because they believed what they believed?
What? Stop. I clicked the poop video, was that not enough?
Oh please submit me your investigation into this allegation. If it exceeds 1 page, I will consider it.
Harbor has the ability to re-create the map's angles. There is no other agent that can have the level of impact that he potentially can have. The professional use of Harbor is criminal. As if he replaces Viper... it's disgusting.
Too many four stars showing up to this thread.
People like you? Go look at your comment history. You're asking Sean Gares whether people get cheats on LAN? And you're some truth seeker? I really do have to leave this site soon.
Missing the point totally. Also confounding my argument as if it hinges completely on whether or not a subset of Magic the gathering cards don't have abilities. Wild to bullet point it.
This is the most awful attempt at baiting by mixing your views with chatgpt. You don't talk like this... lol.
Did you just copy and paste it in? And then add some grammatically errored instruction? This doesn't even read well.
There were no past interactions? That was the point. I'm sorry that ChatGPT didn't pick up on the sarcasm because it didn't train on what happened.
You truly are a special human. If you heard that I prefer CQB over core fundamentals... brother... CQB are apart of the core fundamentals. Jesus. Where do you live? Give me the number to your school district's superintendent right now.
If the community is wrong about something. And I can demonstrate it. And I have to fight off sycophants to achieve some level of truth. I will fight that fight 10/10 times. You're going to stay horrible at the game because you think that you've some how already arrived with a group of 10 people who struggle to coordinate to determine who the best player is? Come on dude... be humble, sit down.
This is the gotcha you think it is. But hey man, the internet doesn't require an IQ test so...
Oh yes, I forgot. I was given many opportunities by people in this community who commented on my document to discuss it with them. I must of blacked out from the exhaustion during my moments with VCTEsports Tiktok, Platchat, numerous pro players, semi-pro coaches and the countless people, like yourself, the true intellectuals.
Yeah and I figured the nice thing I did would come back to bite me.
And the assumptions you're making about me not having conversations with respected people is unfounded. Just like your confidence in attacking me.
Also I debate for fun and to watch performative displays of people who think they can just HAVE knowledge and for that untested knowledge to be correct. The confidence is awe inspiring.
You didn't read it. Don't think you have the right to an opinion on it. Thanks for commenting.
Yes, downvote accountability. Typical societal participant.
Also do you find it strange that you said this:
"Do you think Val teams have the luxury of being able to logically deduce how good a player or coach is?"
I would hope the community would hold org owners, managers and recruiters to this standard, yes.
Yes. Qualifications in this circle are not vetted and people are attributed success for trivial contributions.
They don't. This is demonstratable by watching any post-plant situation. If they are not in main trying to delay with abilities then they are lost. They push bad positions. They get caught out in 1v1s because they don't understand the angle or how to properly swing as two. I could go on and on.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man
I am not arguing that players never use abilities. I am arguing that when there are advantages to be had with abilities, professional players will often use their gun to solve the issue than try to approach the situation with an ability. Many players have been punished having their utility out so I understand why...
Do you know how teams come up with compositions? Do you know how Anderzz came to his conclusion prior to the video? We have to live in a world again where things can be demonstrated.
No one in this space tries new things because getting caught doing a new thing leads to unemployment. No one can explain why they are doing what they are doing. That's the part that makes me frustrated. And I take particular issue with Anderzz because he's flooding the community with information in these dense videos that are nothing more than him expanding on a classification that doesn't need to be subdivided more. There is no benefit.
An agent, by itself, is an expression of the category it belongs to. When you try to freeze these ideas that he is providing, we can already see it disintegrating in the video OP provided. He said that a Jett Dash is DEFINITELY aggro. But that's because he only sees how he wants to see it. During this period teams were using Jett Dash as an entry tool. But use is not definition. Jett Dash is not always AGGRO, Jett Dash can go backwards and side to side. Waylay is AGGRO. The dash only goes in one direction. Are these agents now the same because he has classified them as AGGRO? In order for his system to exist, everything must be static.
Everyone is copying each other's work. It rarely takes more than a professional team to win a game or two for a compositions to become meta. There is huge group think going on at this level because the risk is high.
There's a word for this... cronolopolis? chrono-trigger? crows? crohn's disease?
Oh that's right, cronyism.
Strawman argument.
If your argument is that VCT teams are abilities first teams, we are not watching the same VCT.
Players almost always choose the gun over the ability to solve 99.9% of the scenarios they find themselves in. Please do not make me show the entire video of any VCT game as an example.
Yes. There are four classes, duelist, initiator, smoke and sentinel. If some guy wants to make up categories because Magic also has categories, fine. As we have seen in tournaments, it doesn't help teams. OP is asking why no one picked him up, it is simply that most teams realize very quickly it's vapor. Adding up points for playstyle? Classifying abilities? Where is the actual insight?
This game is not Overwatch. Abilities are not used at the same rate nor for the same reasons. A player in Valorant can completely ignore his/her/they abilities. They simply play the base counter-strike game and can be successful.
In Magic the Gathering, the cards are abilities. Each card does something.
And of all the logical fallacies that the VLR discord is ready to attack without notice, you miss the authority bias? Statistical bias? Confirmation bias? Not to mention illusory correlation.
Also shoutout to the VLR fam that follows my posts and downvotes them!
Nah, you missed subtly of Lebron at the top of the key. The championships he got in the beginning belong to the "supporting cast."
Spurs were too strong and when Kawhi and Green filled the offensive holes left by the aging stars, they stuffed Heat with all the talent they could.
Stephen is a jackass. But I'm sorry, LeBron is a manufactured product. This sequence explains it all : https://youtu.be/coXloPKD8CA?t=260
Wait, can you explain lore please... There really isn't a picture for D1
100T win this. They will find Russia and Bhutan.
I for one appreciate my overlords. Thank you for being you.
Less damage, less stun/flash. More movement, more stationary defense or team based benefits.
I think you're lost. Don't worry dude, follow these eight bread crumbs.
Sorry Tempest24, Frogger beat me to it.
You've been holding that one in for a bit huh big boy? 0/8
Oh when Yisty says it is okay? When I say it people make fun of my slow computer? :(
Just leaving default text and publishing the map. Yal getting insanely lazy over there.
Nobody? Cloudberry? You knew about me 5 months ago?
There are no smurfs. There is a person in your game that is your equivalent skill. They build these games like pyramids. Most skillful at the top because they're harder to find, a group in the middle that is easier to find and the least skilled players.
This is why everyone is bored. They manipulate ranked just like Marvels does. You would feel more satisified with skill based match making but just like Marvels they used engagement based match making. It's great in the beginning to hook players but as we are seeing, the long term impact leaves the entire player base wanting and they will move on.
Yeah... I don't know if you've opened netflix, hbo, hulu, peacock... Same shit over and over and over again.
