fnc vs geng was pretty much a 50/50 but did the other three #1 seeds lose their match due to meta shift or was it only insufficient warmup
i mean jemkin/rarga/jawgemo (and their team) player a lot of yoru/tejo comp and since tejo is basically dead right now so maybe?

still wp probably most fire match so far

everything smaller and looks weird af

can we stop mentioning goat when game itself changes faster than the weather

cooked lev + peak sen def isnt a fluke

china playstyle makes it a bit 50-50 and wolves are outstrating blg anyway

who is boostio

It's been a long time since they added this but it has been confusing me since then. Why did they add the visual effect when a smoke is about to fade away in 1.5s?
It basically

1. Removes the advantage of knowing that a smoke is fading by counting the seconds in mind, and
2. Messes with players' view and hearing.

It has been several times when I shoot certain corners of a smoke because I thought it was someone's head popping out but turned out to be the white visual effect, and if I was with a vandal I often get counter-sprayed and just die. Also the extra sound when the effect shows up sometimes cover other sound cues such as jett drift/sentinel placing util/etc. Does it really cancels out the advantage you gain from being mindful or does it just not matter and I am thinking too much?
