Ah I see interesting, thanks
so practically there's an invisible rank above immo and radiant since the gap between immo 3 and Rad is on avg 300 rr (at least in EU)
I haven't been immo so I wouldn't know this
does rr not reset between immo 1 and immo 3? (like in every other rank)
I thought you get the 0/100 progress bar until immo 3, and from then it starts counting from 0
am I mistaken?
holy crap
thank you rito
always the most annoying feeling when i kill a kayo only for the 2/14 reyna to ignore everything and spam the downed kayo
I completely agree the controversy was overblown
but the thing about him slowly becoming kinda ''toxic'' over time was kinda true, I used to watch him quite a lot and I noticed it too. But I really respected how he owned up to it. I'm glad he's enjoying his new job but part of me misses his regular content
(idk if ''toxic'' is the right word, it's just the closest word I can use to describe it)
oh wait I thought your post was asking about fnatic not being on the list in general, I only just saw that you were replying to someone (my bad lol), yeah I agree with you they're not top 5, I misunderstood your comment
I agree with the teams but not the rankings, maybe I'd think about someone else for LEV but I'm really willing to die on that hill
as a fnatic glazer idk if we deserve top 5 over the whole year
Leo was sick for kickoff and shanghai but our performance was ehh even after considering that
Making 5-6th at Champs with a sub was very cool but idk if it makes up for the rest of the year
yeah, the only English ones have been Copenhagen and LA afaik
I think France has a lot of people with English proficiency, so maybe there's a teeny tiny chance they make an exception but I really doubt it
the casting being in a language you don't understand is probably the biggest downside
its pretty much the only reason I'm doubting whether I wanna go to Paris year
also depending on the arena the seats can be super far away from the screens, so you won't be able to see much (the same is true for seats which are too close)
I wish it wasn't super expensive
Like I'd be down to give up 20 per VOD but all these guys want upwards of 50-100
w0rthyTV does free ones though and he's cool
neT deserves a tier 1 spot
but does C9 deserve neT is the question
a bit unrelated
but I think the first team to ever establish a 'dynasty' (3 internationals back to back to back at least) will be a team with 3-4 flex players and a god IGL, because outside of having a great caller and nice synergy the biggest challenge in this game has been proven to be adapting and leading the meta.
the flex players would have to be cream of the crop in aim, probably former duelists.
I made a tierlist for this (within EU)

One day we're gonna have a replay system and we can go through POVs like this

It's probably gonna make the lives of coaches a decent bit harder since there'd be more content to cover, but I think it'll really make the role of coach even more important (You'd want the hard working coaches who go through the VODs more thoroughly, maybe even the Analyst role will become much more common)
cool, sorry for making you doubt your code lol
I had no idea my comment about Sacy got that many upvotes, I had last seen it at like 80
He was slowly working his way up with people who had a lot of posts but then stopped and started going to new comments again ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
oh wait nvm didn't see #32
I'm sure he'll get to me eventually.
this site has the potential to be so much more
someone just needs to invest in it
Wow congratulations, that's cool as hell. Must've taken a lot of hard work so you defo have my respect
and sorry about the accident.
As for my week nothing new really, the only highlight is me trying to make mac n cheese for the first time. I ended up making wayyyyyyyyy too much because I thought it was too thick then too smooth (this went on for a while), up until the whole pot was full
yo lets see where im at now
thanks for continuing this btw
I have no idea what I'm doing

Nah I disagree, there's more to the game than aiming, teamplay is very important. When you see high Radiant streamers and pros play Clove/Reyna in ranked you'll notice they play much differently than your teammates. Even on "selfish'' characters their teamplay is leagues above even immos I'd say
Reyna is the worst offender imo, for example you can play in a really bad position, still get one because you out aim your opponent (or your opponent is just oblivious), even if they're in a good position and get out for free. When you inevitably rank up doing that over and over again you'll end up facing enemies who'll actually will be able to punish you, and you'll hit a wall. I've had this experience and many of my friends have too. I've seen some youtube coaches cover it too.
as I said before if you want to play the agents for fun that's completely understandable, but if you really want to focus on improving it's a detriment
btw just so I have the full picture, are you a Clove/Reyna/Iso/Chamber main?
The heal is selfish, like the Reyna heal. The smokes are objectively worse than other agents (shorter range, shorter duration). The only good thing about the smokes is that if you die you get to keep on smoking but that makes you value your life less overall (you can play in worse positions and not get punished, which may mean that you reenforce playing in bad positions).
Also a good amount of people who play Clove are duelist mains who have no idea about smoke timings or positioning. It's like playing Reyna or Iso. Will you rank up? Yeah, if you can out aim people. But will you become an objectively better player? nah not imo, you'd eventually reach a wall where mechanics can't get you further, and your choice of agent will limit what plays you can and cannot do
If you wanna play only for fun absolutely go for it, but imo if you want to improve as a player it's a bad choice
statistically clove

but imo clove teaches you bad habits, I'd go for Omen, Sova or Cypher if you want a deeper understanding of the game
Is it true that Riot capped tournament winnings for their international events?
I mean I think val is probably one of the most profitable esports now that gambling is allowed so it should be fine, prize money is more of a showing off thing imo since most of the teams don't really see a good amount of the pot, plus val is actually doing pretty well in viewership iirc
and again ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
Yeah the name 'Ultimate Aim Duel' kinda leads you to think it would be more than a bit of a popularity contest ðŸ˜
Wait APK were trialling on 250 ping??
surely it's not even productive at that high of a ping
#BLEEDBLUE is probably the last hashtag he wants to see
that would be great
There's a lot of cool stuff they could do with vlr, I think it's probably just a money issue (hiring devs)
It's circumstantial. Some (most nowadays) people just don't prefer to socialise while exercising. Yeah I agree it can be a good way to meet people but some people are just interested in different social environments
That's not even considering how subjective playing sports is. I absolutely despise playing football but I love basketball, and that varies person to person.
how and why do you speak for 90% of women
also athletes have to resistance train too
usually players for the same org (even different orgs sometimes) use the same facilities
for example I think last week Rossy was talking about how he was gym buddies with faker
(the story is a bit more detailed, like Rossy didn't know he was training with faker but it shows how close the players can get with each other)
as long as its any type of physical activity i'd say go for it
its possible for the players to be in cahoots with each other if they're in the same org
I think this benjy case is a case of the ruling being a bit too strict, but I guess if you don't apply the rules even in small cases it sets a bad example
