TLDR: PC issue. white noise dont work korean caster can be heard in game. he also snitched T1 players smoking in bathroom didnt get a penalty on his interview.
tweet deleted so here's the context:

actually feel bad for them atp jake sin is too busy rigging everything for korea and japan that the mf forgot rrq is a top team now
you know there's a delay between the stream that the korean casters are commentating on and the actual game right
is this even true? it doesnt make any sense. the in venue casting is in korean. how can there be a delay?
the korean casters, much like everyone else including in-person watchpartiers (infamous chobra "why are the lights turning on?" moment) are viewing the stream displayed at the venue, which has a delay. i am fairly certain this is like that for literally every vct event.
i dont think this is true. the watchpartiers have a delayed stream, makes sense bc the booths might be visible from stage or for comp integrity, but makes 0 sense for the kr casters to be delayed too. like just think about it, how can the kr casters be delayed without the ppl in audience being delayed too, which makes no sense
my brother i have literally been to the venues in person the shit they show on the screen at the arena is delayed from what i see on the monitors and the korean casters are literally at the same venue. you think the watchpartiers and the casters are far enough apart where one needs a delayed stream and the other shouldn't for....what reason?
so ur saying the casters and audience are 5 sec behind the stage in front of yall??? that makes no sense bro
ignore the truth from someone who has literally attended vct events in person yes you are 100% correct bro my perception of reality is simply wrong and not factual and sollipsism is a confirmed truth.
this shit is also how it works in league btw.
the screen on the stage is delayed, that's why for example when prx won the toronto grandfinal f0rsaken stands up before the screen even shows the last kill happening
this is unironically true
you can literally tell from every single voice comms video that the crowd reacts to a play several seconds late
every single LAN winning moment the players react before the screen even shows the victory screen
there should be delays, but no more than 2 secs i think. so, valid crashout from jemkin.
watch any voice comms video and you can hear the crowd react a couple seconds late in the background noise
i was watching NS game, ivy did the smoke spams too many times, hopefully thats not the case lmao
ts is so annoying bro, acting like there is no delay between the stream and the game, and that players will actively ignore what's going on in the game in front of them to favour the Korean casters who may not even be watching their POV like it's just harmful speculation.
besides, 3/5 Korean teams literally got eliminated?
it's just excuses. Korean teams got 1st and 2nd, so now everyone is saying they must have had an unfair advantage. Soundproofing 100% is impossible, no matter the venue. Meteor even mentioned on stream that the Korean casters got himself killed before back in 2024, this is not an advantage for anyone. Masters Toronto had English casters on the venue and for sure some sound was leaking. Same goes for like every event. This is just how it is for pros.
the worst part is when the Korean teams get eliminated it's Korea's downfall and they are bad, but when they win it's because they're listening to Korean casters. shit is tiring to listen to and people can't help but be sore losers.
yeah i believe thats not the case, idk about the delay tho, if its like 5 secs its pointless
5 seconds is a lot of time, plus there's no guarantee that the observers will be on your POV
nah 5 second you can still get the ambience from the voice. pros do this all the time even if the white noise working they usually abuse it from the crowd.
its actually crazy significant
pros abuse the crowd noises for sure, they also abuse hand positions across the stage, but a 5 second delay is actually longer than you think. you can check for yourself in a demo.
as for the actual issue itself of being able to hear casters, i remember in 2024 pacific suffered audio issues during the t1/geng game. so it's not the first time.
also during ascension in 2024 the audio was super loud and people couldn't hear anything during the group stage. feels like audio in general needs to be looked into for sure.
The delay is less than 5 seconds for sure. Its almost like 2~3 seconds. And this delay can cause many problems
VCT APAC crowd is not doing enough to make crowd cheating viable
this isn't a CS major crowd
bro just straight up waffling, watch prx vs rrq the crowd is insane despite there's no korean team, considering its a small arena the noise is so easy to hear.
he's complaining about something that everyone else who plays on that stage is dealing with and he mentions it after he loses out of the tournament instead of saying it in idkkkk the first final? the 2nd final? let me guess they had good pcs and good headphones then 😂😂😂😂
He complained bout pcs when he won n MVPs stage 1 .. so what's ur point?
the pacific stream is always so dogwater compared to other regions as well. i guess we just cant afford good pcs
Redo kickoff rn
NS, T1, DRX, GenG, Varrel disqualified
RRQ gets 3 more Bo5s to try to win
Maybe the headset is worth investigating but come on, everyone played the same pc
Bro could have said this after the first B05 still let's see other players reaction to this
does he know prx also played on pcs with the same specs. Fuck are the players crying about esp when it comes to pc specs
"T1 players always smoke and vape in pee breaks and get no penalty, but anytime we do we get penalty"
this is a serious double standard and if it's true should have real consequences
stax for sure smokes
wouldnt be surprised if buzz and munchkin also
maybe izu, i dont think meteor smokes
as for whether they were the ones jemkin saw, i have no evidence of that. maybe. either way, if it's true it should be addressed out of fairness. either everyone gets to smoke or vape or no one.
yeah apparently neither did PRX for not locking in their agents. Twice. this is crazy
was this during a bo5 or bo3? only time you’re not allowed to is during bo3 per rulebook but bo5 is allowed
Koreans taking revenge on the pacific teams for all the trolling happened against them on X last week🥀
poor bro is gonna be known as a snitch on their mind, peak introvert behavior
Holy jemkin was FUMING lmao
didn't expect sweet brother jemkin be acting like prime fr0st
If this is true then it means being able to hear the Korean casters gives a massive advantage to the Korean teams. Worth investigating.
i would expect someone to bring attention to it if it was throughout the tournament. maybe it was just for this match and PRX didn't say shit bc it wasn't exactly an advantage for them either
the 200 fps is when it spikes and has bad frametimes which plays worse than a smooth 60 at times and looks worse on a 360hz monitor, frustrating when they have the budget to get better pcs and it clearly affected him
No way it's unstable with a 13700k + 4070 when they play at the lowest quality, though it sucks to not get the maximum out of the 360 hz monitor
they have all of the extra software running to monitor the game and recording etc + on a single core performance game windows can spike your fps no matter how good your computer is
I mean he topped the lobby except forsaken there's no doubt about his skill he never tweets too
I mean It's obvious that whole valorant esports scene is biased towards certain teams. APAC : PRX EMEA : FNC AMER : SEN
lmao bro named the teams with the three biggest fanbases and called it bias. idk about S0N but PRX and FNC are well-liked and consistent and thats about it
wait how does smoking in the bathrooms have to do with performance tho
if anything wouldnt it make you worse
it doesnt say anything about performance, it should be illegal according to the rule but somehow its not
lol its asian culture to smoke, korean can tax the cigs all they want and make it not affordable, but vape is still the "healthier" alternative they can cope
