He thinks teams are in Esports for happiness 🤣 they are in it for money buddy ewc prize pool bigger than masters they 💯 took it seriously are you crazy 😂 guy coping to the max is so funny
He said "If you participated in EWC you are admitting you care more about money than winning" like what? No shit the orgs/players want more money... but that doesn't mean they don't care about Champs
i think its more about the org, if s0m wanted money hed just stream, for the players its more about glory and prestige or "aura" as some would say
I mean sure but money is absolutely a factor even if it's minimal compared to prestige or "aura." I still think teams at EWC care about Champs which is the main point
yeah let me go play the quals and run it down mid and when the org tell me tf u doing i tell them my morals brother ><
if teams weren’t in esports for the love of rh game they wouldn’t be in esports. He’s right about that 100%. Esports is like the least profitable thing ever you have more odds just throwing it all on black than going net positive.
Okay i watched it. It was actually heavy cringe.
Yeah it sucks it is this way but it sounded like a kid discovering the world for the first time and throwing a tantrum. Like duh, we know all that. Who do you think you educating with this grand explanation?
Babyraging and drowning in delusion doesnt help anything and just makes you look silly. NRG and Sen will probably both make champs too. Are you not gonna do your job as an analyst anymore or what? You know the things youre saying (about their performance) are simply untrue.
did you watch it though?
cause after the babyrage he does bring up points which are perfectly valid as an analyst
like separate him intentionally ragebaiting ("reason number 1: its funny to see Sen and NRG fans crashout") from his actual concerns
I think the idea that SEN/NRG won't be ready for Stage 2 because they played in EWC is ludicrous. We can't complain about their not being enough games, then get mad or try and say it's a detriment to these teams to play in more matches. This NRG roster is brand new, they have a brand new IGL, and just brought back their coach. I'd be more worried for them if they decided to skip EWC than them deciding to play in it. SEN is the same thing; despite being a team for months now, they are still trying to integrate Bang/N4RRATE and figure out what works (I would have preferred John to swap to Sentinel already, but I've given up on that).
Sen will be fine, no question about that imo.
For NRG the concern on map pool could come into effect though
Bringing in a new IGL is exactly why I think its an actual concern, since they dont have a good map pool to fall back on yet
So theyre playing catchup on the new maps while also still developing their "core" strat book on the old maps
However I am also very much reps pilled so I agree that them getting more officials in is a good thing for the team. Regional play gets so muddy that fundamentals are king.
I think that it doesnt quite work as well as in the offseason though (if there are issues you cant see in scrims they dont really have time to fix them), but its better than not getting reps in
The main reason I think it will work for NRG specifically is that their schedule works out well. Also Bonkar is the truth.
Well gotta play both sides here since I agree with the point, but disagree with the outcome
double the post length
I agree, the thing that I hate is that if NRG fails to make champs, Bren and all of them will just blame it on EWC, even if they get 5th place, which would be a great step in the right direction. If Chet/Mikes were still the coach and they had this much time before stage 2, I would be worried, but I don't have those same concerns with Bonkar. Despite losing, they did so much good stuff the last month with EWC qualifiers that I'd be shocked if they came out flat or flopped in the next stage. I hope s0m keeps competing, and we see this team get a full offseason together.
I stopped watching PlatChat a while ago. I'll tune in every so often, but I started to realize they don't do much actual analysis on the game. It's mostly just hot takes, memeing, etc., so I don't take much of what they say seriously. But I agree it was absurdly cringe (most of Bren's takes are from the times I've watched PlatChat, and sure, that's his thing to make hot takes and yell into the mic). Saying that SEN/NRG won't be ready for Stage 2 because they played EWC doesn't really make sense to me. It's not like they have to fundamentally change everything they are doing, like when the Tejo meta ended. Everyone complains that there aren't enough matches then when teams go out of their way to play in matches they are told to stop...
people just don’t need to take it seriously what people in plat chat are talking about
I agree, but unfortunately a lot of people do, and they are the biggest podcast in Valorant, so a lot of what they say actually skews how people think, even if it's wrong. They are basically the ESPN of Valorant. If you want actual analysis, they are not the place to get it, but if you just want to be entertained, then yeah, they're good at that.
well, at least they're admitting EWC is just for money, but why tf would that mean they don't care about Champs? it's not like they're risking injuries lol
yeah, it makes no sense. We can't complain about lack of matches then yell at teams who decide to go out their way to play more matches.
I think that's getting very overblown. It's not like we are going from Tejo meta to non-Tejo meta like a month ago. These teams will be fine; 1 week of practice is enough given the most recent changes. No team will have to fundamentally redo all their maps and comps.
yes yes we get it vlr you've been paid to shill ewc and fall for ragebaits and you're all out of shilling move it along please
2 new maps in the pool is pretty big regardless. One is a completely new map too
He got on the pod without his meds again, they needed a new short for this week.
Now that, vlr users is an 8/8
Y'all gotta take notes from bren. His ragebait farm today has spawned so many threads from y'all
Is it really ragebait from bren? I think bren is mentally ill or addicted to some kind of drugs... I mean like for real. You know those mentally ill people on the streets who keep talking about random topics with passion? that's what he sounded like in this episode.
I feel like Wyatt knows about it or has some idea, that's why keeps changing the topic to KRU when bren starts his mental yap, so that people won't notice he's gone crazy.
how much of an asshole you have to be to be speculating this kind of shit or someone else's life because they commented something on a podcast that has nothing to do with this?
Imagine calling someone mentally ill in such a derogatory way just because you don’t like the fact that he said teams that hard committed to ewc might not be ready for the newest patch which isn’t totally unprecedented behaviour ( last season a lot of teams who went deep in Tokyo said there was too fast a turn around for the new patch )
I'm not saying this because I disagree with him and I'm not insulting him. I legit feel there is something wrong with him.
Explain why he's correct. You don't think 1 week is enough to prepare for a match? How is that any different from week to week when stages are going on? If anything the teams that were in EWC got to iron out any issues they had prior to Stage 2.
