vlr community cup seems fun, I signed up for my first season yesterday

icl it is very nice, I wish I had 2 so I could have one for the recon phantom and one for the glitchpop vandal
but if they add another one itll kinda reduce how cool it is since it was meant to be limited to drops

its crazy that after all the beef the one thing all the former players/coaches can agree on is that they hated the org 😭

another team goes back to back this year

the magepunk kill sound is nice but imo the rest of its clunky
the elder flame doesnt even feel like a gun (in a bad way)
I picked up gaia earlier today and getting 1 taps makes you feel like 2023 demon1

he just like me fr

(except I suck)

who do we think it is?
I reckon its that henbaby guy they give off the same vibe

I think it's a matter of giving it time, just like CN and APAC. Maybe yeah it's slower but if there's investment and engagement in the scene they'll get there

they aint ready for my red tracker score

Is 4th seed at champs going to be points based again?
and since the stages are separate is that going to make 3rd seed to Masters Toronto based on points?

they got dark horse potential, I'd say like 35% chance they have it in them to qualify for at least 1 event
esp because every year they wake up and they play like prime optic loud and fnatic mid season randomly for like 4-5 games

chicken pakora salary for them

his favorite players got benched or their teams underperformed in major events. That would be the ultimate nightmare scenario

😭😭😭😭😭

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

holy shit i bet yours is gonna be good

lets see

nvm.

pretty solid, I think I'm missing gaia magepunk and elderflames of the 'good' skins
but the thing is I've bought all of those skins over 2 different alts 😭😭😭

but at this point I just want gaia on my main the other two are mid imo

oxy is pretty clean with it

damn, yours is pretty nice too, esp what you did to match the colours, I defo don't have the radianite to do that lol. I stopped buying phantoms skins since the champs 2024 bundle since I don't really use the phantom anymore. The only skin I want rn is the gaias vengeance vandal but I haven't had it in my store yet

now that you mention it I actually have no idea, I've finished every battlepass from episode 1 act 3 onwards so that just must add up enough, alongside the skins I haven't upgraded

heres my inv (i kinda trolled with the scrolling so you might have to pause to actually see):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8L7W8CmF3o

the reason I want one so bad is because (I believe) I have every limited time skin (except for the first 2 BP's), and I'm sort of a completionist so I won't be happy until I do 😭

I made a post a while back asking how people got it, and I'd say 90% of people who got it knew someone at Riot. I'm ngl I don't know a single person who's gotten one by meeting a dev in game (except for streamers who say they met one, or people who post ab it)
Yeah what you say is true, especially the part where you said they'll not give one away just for being 'non-toxic', which probably means I won't be getting one from an in game encounter any time soon 😭

that's the one thing I haven't done, buy radianite. But I've wasted money on other useless skins. I'll send my inv soon

bro it looks clean

but yeah the amount I've spent on this game is unjustifiable its lowkey an addiction

I got the bleed one too 😭

I fw this idea heavy, just make it so the finisher of their classic has the same finisher as the vandal/phantom

I agree, he's better than what people make him out to be.
However what's going to determine whether I think he's good for the long term is how he's going to handle tier 2. He's done a good job with tier 1 imo but tier 2 is also really important (he's done some things right like extending the season but t2 needs a more systematic change imo)

I've always kept in on my vandal but it looks nice on a lot of phantom skins too, my friend uses it on recon
I just use the bronze buddy on my phantom lol

Red and Blue go hard sometimes ngl, don't knock it til you try it

but Red on Red is super clean though tbf so I see where you're coming from. I sometimes like using defaultesc skins so I bought the ego vandal, and the buddy with the red variant looks super clean
https://i.imgur.com/JCNGG5T.jpeg

I really hope the TL buddy is blue next year so I can use it with the prism phantom

anguist or lime?
I might have to fw BBL afterall

climbing ranked is unironically a test of mental endurance and patience. (assuming you have the mechanics and gamesense needed)

I'm tweaking I thought you made a post saying you were chill with them but I looked through your posts and it seems like I'm just yapping

Am I tripping or did he say n.... as in he stopped himself from saying it after pronouncing 'n'?

oh really I had no idea they could do that
I think asking for it basically kills your chances of getting it anyways. I try and be nice to my teammates regardless since it makes them play better so I'd hope I run in to one so I can get one eventually

I used it with the blue prime vandal for a bit it does go hard tbf

I thought you made peace with SEN fans 😭😭

What skin do you use it with?

I could've sworn they had an office in Paris

oh yeah for rarest the masters/champs/lock//in/gc might be but I mean obtainable for your average joe like me

I've spammed switfplays but I am NOT gonna do the second part 😭, and even then I've never seen a dev in one.
It's kinda funny you mention that since my name can be interpreted as feminine so people think I'm an egirl when I don't talk, then I reveal I'm a grown ass man at the end of the game.
And yeah this buddy is cool but icl I really want to run the red glitchpop vandal with the riot buddy (just like Derke did)

damn I gotta get myself one then
But I swear I've never seen a riot dev play this game 😭 and I defo don't have any artistic talent 😭😭

I queued a switfplay and some guy said my buddy is rarer than the riot one, is this true?

I use ion with 1 upgrade its pretty nice

bro is downvote farming

imo Munchkin
I want them to let Mako play his own game

apparently pretty much everyone who signed up didn't know what the prize was which is interesting lol

holy wow Sweden is lowkey built

imo you do, if you really want to reach an audience you make it as easy as possible for them to access it. This tournament isn't really meant to be competitive to the degree of AFTV (you don't have full tier 1 teams with weeks of practice), but for viewership instead. Plus you have to consider timezones. How many people are gonna stay up for a stream not in their language. I think it really would be better to wait and do it properly, I'm probably being ambitious but if by year 2 of a LxT WC if we can get a LAN in Europe that would be the time to do it
