牛逼 (niú bī) - awesome / cool / badass
I hear this slang used a lot in valorant cn (after you make a good play etc.)

It has quite an interesting origin though, word for word it's direct translation is "cow pussy" seems pretty weird but so would "badass" to other non-english speakers ig

Can't believe no ones picking Chichoo bruh

Damn nice, guess I'll have to do it

Did some searching, tons of info here. Starts 2pm (CN time)

Bro you should honestly apply for chinese event coverage writer

where to watch?

Tyloo will win the 11th slot nw

There are tons of orgs in franchising that previously did like nothing, it's just all about the money. ASE and NTER are very very small orgs

No, there will be a tourny to look out for somewhere around December that will promote the 11th team, I think its called evolution or smth. Then next year I assume it will use the ascension format

BLG where

I cannot even count the amount of things that are ruined as a result of getting popular man, mewing used to be known as something much more related to health and now the rabbithole incels think its only purpose is to look like a gigachad

Read my previous comments on this post, worked well for me and I did it for actual health reasons

Mewing does work, just not all the time - depends on the person and their age etc. It sure worked for me, and the surgeon (who cut my tongue-tie) recommended I do it. It's not just a social media thing

You realise mewing is meant for people who didn't develop the muscles around their jaw correctly right? This concerns basic chewing and swallowing. I had a tongue tie growing up so never had good posture, after getting it cut and some mewing I've never found it easier to swallow properly and just live a normal life - and I've also started looking a lot healthier (thus more attractive etc.) It's also helped a lot with my breathing, you haven't done actual research around mewing and it tells - looks like it's whatever you've seen off social media. This really isn't that much different from how a lot people go to the gym to workout because they want to look better.

somehow? They're rich af it'll be easy

mc - Macau
ohh those were the rules for FGC so I'm actually not sure about partnership I haven't been reading anything about that - it could be just 1 import max idk

Tbf haodong's calling during champs was really bad, very slow to make decisions. But still I don't see them changing any part of their roster

I could see benkai going to Trace Esports who need an igl rn

Spring is insane
Eren is really inconsistent
YRselect has been mid for forever
JayH is good apparently
Idk about bruce

No, as long as majority of team are cn/tw/hk/mc then it's fine. In this case that means 2 imports max, WBG for example had two aussies

But riot gets to chose the org? So this is very unrealistic

1. Kroenke gave up on esports, so org just straight up refused to sign the terms regardless of what they were. The reason they let them play ascensions if this was gonna be the outcome was because of contract agreements probably

Really don't understand why they don't just let G2 pick up the guard here. Riot was already going to franchise them before all the andrew tate stuff but that ceo is gone now, and since it's Riot's choice here it highly minimises the chance that the chosen org payed the guard to do this

bump

Well, might as well

Who had it before

people really falling for the reverse psychology

Then there's SEN who's making a roster change every time I blink 💀💀

Yeah but there's no requirement for that? That's not a written rule, and it usually takes a very long time to buy out a team. This is very unrealistic, but this being an option already gives orgs the incentive to not build their own team and just wait then? So riot going with option #2 really doesn't change that aspect? Bonkers were 2 series away and they weren't picked up by an org

Bro not many orgs will implode after winning ascension, this is quite a unique case idk why you think this is something that other orgs can wait for and capitalise on when it happens. That's completely unrealistic, and just a horrible business strategy

Well what if a team without an org won ascension then? Riot really didn't think this through

Bros doing a tarik 💀💀💀

Sounds about right

The only roster change that would make sense would be replacing the duelist (not that tex is bad, it's just the easiest role change to make). It would be so dumb for G2 not to put those other 4 players together who've been playing for what now, almost 2 years together?

Toast said he was willing to buy out the whole team

Man at this point what team isn't running out of money

That wouldve been far better? And he couldve dropped them before ascension? Then another org could've picked up the team and won ascension. Toast said he was willing to buy out the whole team, but now it's too late

I do get the contract thing though

Tbh not really sure why he'd let them play all of ascensions anyway if this was gonna be the outcome

LMAOOOOOOOO

hahahah little did he know

they need a kk on marshal

I think LOUD is still underrated here

after

you really missed the joke didn't you

an

who's gonna tell him

yeah but most likely not until next year, that'll be ages

yeah tbf those 3 months were BLG's only chance to get a spot in the "chinese league"
it was a requirement to have a starting roster very early on, so they had to just get whoever they could at first but the pro playerbase was so small they couldn't find any good well known players apart from whzy & rin from T.O.E which disbanded
That's why they gave the other 3 hella short contracts cuz the plan was to wait for when other vets became F/A - this happened when KONE (ex-2nd best CN team) disbanded and they picked up knight and yosemite

all the other new orgs investing in CN val pretty much have to do the same thing but they know it's worth it

I could see BLG picking up Luok1ng to replace rin for KONE core

just mid ig

surely they drop rin.. and they only ever made upgrades by bringing in veteran players

Replace him with Luok1ng (ex teammate of yosemite and Knight) which makes BLG the old KONE core and they clap cheeks ez
