maybe he comes today

It'll be the same, classic + card + buddies
maybe they'll do name tags too

but we should be getting a bundle which is 'similar to the lock//in bundle' some time in the year so there's that to look forward to

For Omen I'd really recommend Zander, his VODs are very good to study
I've not really VOD reviewed for Cypher, but nAts and Dasnerth seem good

gaia
myst
prelude
glitchpop (if that's what GP is)
Neo

what role? or more specifically what agent?
usually what I do is find one person per agent per map and watch a few of those

you have to be careful with duelists though, since some people just 'run it down' instead of making the 'correct' play

G2 would've made franchising over C9 (This was confirmed a while back)
they were also gonna pick up the XSET roster so Zekken and Cryo would've probably not have gone to SEN and 100T

how can you hate him he literally walks on water

fair enough, but the way you phrased #68 kinda made it seem like you were comparing it to Leo

tone it down with TenZ and I broadly agree with you
Omen mako is valid though, no need to change that imo

posted 7 months ago

ok yeah the discrepancy between results is valid in this case, I'll concede
actually I take it back I stand by my next statement.
I do wanna mention that results aren't always the best measure in general though, you could have the best player itw but at the end of the day it's a 5v5 game

Also as others have mentioned Meteor's Yoru was used very sparingly

posted 7 months ago

I agree with JQT > Meteor if you're looking at him as a player (IGL, fragger) but if you look at it only from an agent util/impact standpoint I think JQT is like a 7/10 and Meteor is a 9/10

maybe that's just me tho

posted 7 months ago

imo Meteor's Cypher is better
Also (maybe I'm biased) but I think Derke had a better Yoru

posted 7 months ago

he single handedly made us (apparently) the first ff in vcc

not to discredit our sub who was defo crypto throwing

after seeing you on omen it's 100% cause for fear

it took until #14 to ask this 😭

its usually subjective, the only real exception being immo tbh

some people will have an easier time ranking up in different ranks
for example when I was really trying to rank up I spent 8 months in silver, 8 months in gold, 6 months in plat and only 2 in diamond

https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/Aayan%232005/performance (sort by month)

I pretty much stopped trying between Jan 2023 - Jun 2024 because of A levels (exams)

I've kinda stopped playing now since I just have no motivation tbh, I wanna go for immo but it seems so far away

gira aspas gira

posted 7 months ago

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)

posted 7 months ago

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

VIT and TH fs
I'd say maybe KC for 3rd

posted 7 months ago

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)

posted 7 months ago

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

posted 7 months ago

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

posted 7 months ago

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

posted 7 months ago

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

posted 7 months ago

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)

posted 7 months ago

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

posted 7 months ago

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.

One day we're gonna have a replay system and we can go through POVs like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQvcB07wEw0

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)

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 😭😭

oh wait nvm didn't see #32
I'm sure he'll get to me eventually.
