Fuck complexity for wasting my boy's, elige's 2nd prime. Fucking crazy how they had Lake, Malbs taken and snatched directly from in front of their nose. Complexity need to consider what they are doing if JBA and Slump come to some other org instead of Hallzerk and Grim

Cheering for Brazil just because I am a racist and support all one nation teams, may racism arise

Sadly most esports orgs are working in a minus, reason why sentinels and faze going public with their shares went into an utter fucking collapse. Still, sponsors and bundles are related to how well the team does/how long the team stays in franchising. It is kinda similar to how the Big 6 formed in English Premier League, big dogs have no threat of relegation, while bottomfeeders are at a constant risk of getting relegated into worse financial situations. "Just breaking even" isn't what sponsors want to hear. This whole thing still turns into secure Vs insecure. Franchised teams can offer long term plans, most ascended teams cannot afford this, they need immediate results. And given that academies can be ascended, wouldn't it make sense for the academy to host people who are still in schools, so less than 18, so ineligible?

No artificial diversity = "region based domination" = 16 team champs has 6 american teams, 4 EMEA teams, 3 Chinese, 3 pacfiic (pure example) = region domination= CS2.0

The problem I see with team bundles is that they aren't giving enough, isn't the number still in 6 digits? Like 600k per team or something? You pay for salaries, rent an HQ in Berlin/LA, pay transfer fees, it still maybe a lot more than what the team gets

And both of those ways are for a limited time slot, one bad year and you are out

It's better, but it's still paying money for a limited time slot, and also what stops the team which hosted this academy just taking the best players from it?

that's why I doubt any buyers will come, you loan this slot from riot for like a million or so, yes you get that franchising buff but it doesn't mean shit if your team gets relegated. This is not sustainable, something like CS, where you just link salaries to the team placement and if the team is good you just get your big share from the major stickers or prize pools, no such thing in riot, sadly

Sad to see riot learning from volvo and just not giving a shit about their past decisions

it does, but it is not the permanent slot, that's a problem. If the slot is worth a million you are GUARANTEED to keep it for 1 year only. That's where it becomes a little bit unsustainable. Franchising is sustainable for orgs like MIBR, yes they will probably get kicked in 2027, but throughout those 4 years they will remain there. IF you buy a slot there is a risk that A) your org goes into the ascension tournament (where it comes down to just one grand final, it is not a league) B) your org gets dropped completely into the regional leagues.

makes 0 sense, then they just take the slots of other orgs

it really depends on how many buyers there are

yeahhh, that 3 russian representing players on navi ain't gonna cut it bro

10 entries on you
12 trolled games per day
15 reports

Nah, tenz doesn't play on 600 eDPI

It's actually The Classic

Is there someone like NiKo for valorant? Like a rifler who can do everything, taps, sprays, quite a low sens so his aim can look a bit mechanical at times

Going into the game while knowing that you will win, that's delusion.
Going into the game while knowing you will get gorillas in your team, that's courage

Jordan at Wizards typa downfall 💀

the only two types of tilt fight I have seen are taking breaks whenever you feel tilt or just playing until you don't give a shit

bro m80 logo was perfect, m80 is an explosive, the logo is a grenade/mine, letter and numbers are fit inside this said grenade, why the fuck do you turn it into a generic logo

truly peak valorant YET, would be sad if the game's peak happened 3 years after release

well child labour is no joke..

but then pcific get cucked cuz 3/5 players are less than 18, yikes

MiraSexGod about to get his 3rd TI

Not trusting a single news before it's official, none of y'all are Fabrizio Romanos because none of your sources are football bureaucrats

EU isn't nearly the biggest region in LoL, and G2 are 7th in CS earnings, without any majors won and only 1 final appearance . Like G2 have no Worlds and Majors to their name, they aren't nearly at the pinnacle of CS when it comes to trophies yet they are the biggest clout org. That's why no matter how many Worlds T1 wins or how many Majors navi gets, G2 will be the bigger org

It doesn't have to. G2 are probably the most marketable org across all esports yet in no sport are they actually top 1. Possible sponsors look at how marketable the players are, how popular the org already is. Team popularity is mostly based on its players, If the entire fnatic team decided to join navi, then fnatic would lose 95% of their fanbase. Same would happen to sentinels, if tenz were to leave for let's say NRG then NRG would get his fanbase. Making a winnable team and giving them salaries takes a lot of resources and effort, just being good enough and hype brings more and with less resources

I mean I would do at least some basic search before being so confident in what I am posting :D

I am so thankful there is no EDger in VCT

You call people retards before logically assuming that Bundles and Sponsors, which are two things independent of results being more money than winning. And also define BIGGEST org. If you bring up some Net Worth price, then it's based on how marketable the team is, not how Good it is

Orgs favour money and income before trophies

What is Boaster boasting about?

we have different reflexes, different body structures and we are used to walking on two feet while cats are used to use all 4

it seems you are way too connected to tier 2 val bro

scream 2nd acc

pretty sure Shanghai has decent infrastructure. I also like how the rmrs and majors are in the same place, pretty much in the same dates. EU tier 1,2, NA and SA, OCE, CH will all pracc each other for like 1.5 months, it can be huge for the scenes

stavn about to drop world's lowest major rating :D

he is the part of cs' biggest matchfixing scandal, valo's biggest coach cheating scandal, played and casted in both games and also streamed, he is iconic

esl just produce great sketches, this one is the most recent and also good https://youtu.be/57XN5nby0Xo
https://youtu.be/r90TvYJhaq8

then bro came back 7 years later to drop this https://youtu.be/CdspoUEWvjo
lebron level of longevity, absolutely goated

Deontay Wilder will be top 1 entry for sure

life-game it seems

''used to'' is crucial here

how is this guy not kicked yet, wtf

imagine being a young kid and just seeing some bum get into ascension while being deadweight?

you cannot be good mechanically if you are 0.8 k/d 99% of the time

like wtf, is this guy allergic to turning on his monitor?

is this guy hooxi's lost twin brother, how the fuck is he so ass?

sentinels bankrupt, the only functioning orgs in americas are leviatan, kru, 100t, NRG, wtf
