preach brother

ye a lot are pretty chill, but I've had a few gym rat friends who pester me a lot to go. I tried it once, it didn't move me, then I stopped. Most of the time I just go for jogs if I'm worried about fitness. Those are pretty chill, at least for me.

Being fit is good but you don't really need the gym to do that.

It's kinda funny tho, the people I know that most hype up the gym and act like it's the solution to all problems tend to be just as insecure as people who don't go. They just move the goalpost farther and farther. If you enjoy it and like the self-improvement aspect or aesthetic aspect, cool. Don't act like it makes you better somehow tho. Some people got other things they want to pursue and do with their time.

Coming out of a bad year and asking "Best region of all-time?" is crazy. Whether or not you think teams are getting upgrades, that don't mean shit. Valorant ain't that clear cut. Looking at on-paper rosters to project how a year will go has failed literally every year.

They drop 5 million, resign tenz, then lose out next split.

If they change rosters after they're incredibly consistent performances in literally every tournament they're management is sick in the head. Lots of orgs would do unspeakable things for the performance they've had this year, and they've demonstrated that they are fully capable of at least contending for a win.

They could sign all five G2 players to replace their roster and they'd still go winless knowing them.

They're analysts. Ones that run a comedic podcast where the main draw is just that they talk about the game, are passionate about it, and have fun. They're mostly serious with their analysis, but they're not trying or claiming to be 100% accurate in their predictions or power rankings, and it isn't—nor should it be—a big deal if they're wrong at times or are clearly biased/playing things up. Some people take the shit they say and predict way to seriously, and that's where a lot of the hate comes from tbh.

you got some issues bro

fnatic flair is crazy for this comment

years later this mf is still being dragged back into the conversation just to be shit on

ok kinda true

they're aight

you've been watching for three years pick one yourself

no. 2024 is a full year, and 2025 is another. It's like when you count to 2, you go 1, then 2. You go 2024, then 2025. This is basic, bro. It's been more than 365 days while they've been on the team.

Edit: Oh wait you're not the same person. Probably got ragebaited.

This year and last year. That makes 2. Math bro. 2025 and 2024. EG were 2023 when they won champs.

This is bait right? She's had NaturE and Supamen for 2 years now.

We haven't seen a single competitive match bro.

And even if they have a decent top four, so do other regions, and I'm honestly less confident in our top four than others.

Kick everyone but Derrek and rebuild completely

Fade or Viper

Idk. He's a little hollier-than-thou when watching of non-game-segments of the broadcast, and he likes to roll his eyes at things and say—or imply—they're cringe. His chat is also weird a lot of the time.

Not a deal-breaker, just don't love this aspects. I really like watching him when he's locked in on a good game.

Honestly I'm not sure how most people are rating her. They were very high after her 2023 run, but I've mostly seen the hype die down after a period of mediocrity and some poor approaches to the meta. Some people still rate her super highly, but I think most people are just lukewarm on her now.

Hard to know though. It might just be a mediocre or unflexible core of players she has right now. They don't seem to have the most diverse agent pool. Maybe she goes crazy with another team, maybe she's just mediocre, but I don't think she's a miracle worker as some people initially thought.

FNS also has his cringe moments, but he's definitely better than shanks

no

just think of how many fewer rounds they've thrown compared to normal. We have to be satisfied at some point

at least he's solo won them just as many rounds

Every moment is rock bottom tbh. It keeps getting deeper.

nah but you are

FAZE Clan

Pretty equal, hard to say.

mf's just hate fun

All these doubters just dont know ball

Lowkey exactly as expected. Team always finds a way to disappoint. I didn't even expect that much from them, and I still got disappointed.

I've watched more than enough shanks. On-and-off from when he debuted on dignitas, got banned for a couple years, then came back and went full streamer.

He's braindead, and his chat is even worse. At his best he's dumb fun, but he doesn't bring shit to a watch party.

Has to be ragebait if you're mentioned shanks

I mean, all-time and historically sure, but if he plays bad this game Aspas might be entering his first slump. I still think he'll do good tho

Bro it's just an analyst, stop overexaggerating.

Yea one has spike debuting in Tier one and EG is just a funny team of washed players eternally trying to return to former glory.

Holy cope

Already shafting aspas is crazy

Why does vlr irrationally hate a bunch of players and teams? It just happens bro. Get used to it

Watching NRGs eternal fall off has given me insight. Mibr is falling off

MIBR fall off incoming I can feel it

100t management doesnt watch the game enough to even know what players to pick up

If he remains a top player for at least 2 years we can begin this conversation

Unlucky that Boostio punched Nadeshot

I mean probably. Maybe he just did really well in trials or some shit tho.

SEN v. 100t and, on the other side, Sen V. G2

none in pro play. He's been working as a val caster and has grinded rank quite a bit, meaning he's still been super involved with the game while he was gone. Probably some drop-off, but it shouldn't be too massive.
