That is true, my one rebuttle is that G2 lost every pistol and still managed that. But I also understand the back half of that statement "they lost every pistol". But I agree with your point overall, the main concern is beating C9 at this point in time.

I am curious about the competition between groups because it is so hard to tell who is good and who is not. Kru looks good, but it feels like G2 or a MIBR could really dismantle them (potentially). It is all "ifs" until the time comes.

Idk man, that MIBR that played yesterday would have gotten beat by G2. That is no discredit to C9. I am just saying, that team need consistency. We saw what happens when it does not show up.

Jaw unfortunately. But also babybay just keeps leaf off his normal roles. It’s a toss up

Good, besides G2 needs to be above NRG. G2 has competed better overall imo, and also the history of G2 vs NRG

Valyn needs to adapt the faster playstyle again. I hate what’s happening rn

Why was the G2 game boring? Just bc it felt close but inevitable? Or just two boring styles clash?

Man that envy match put you in a bad mood. I got to see that disasterclass. Lol

How’d we do? Seemed like a close match. We did lose all the pistols tho

Yup

People are downvoting some basic biology and truth. Albeit esports is not as discussed a topic compared to physical sports in the realm of genetics. But just from what I have studied regarding the specifics of genetics. Their is 100% a genetic component, and that occurs with everything. It can be anything from reaction time, the difference in calcium release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum for the extensor digitorum profundis to lift the hand jjust a focal of an inch, the different in type 1, II, IIb, your dentate nucleus of your cerebellum has a quicker processing speed for planning the fine dextrous movements of the fingers and wrist, etc. There is a genetic component, and this is also why you do not see as many women in the tier 1 scene (I do not even think a woman has made the T1 scene in val or CS yet or not that is biologically a female at birth). Some may view this as a bad thing or even look at the nature vs nurture view for the women argument. But, genetics plays a large role, and it's illogical to think otherwise.
It does not however eliminate hard work, but hard work can not make up for a super large gap that already exists.

Just bc it's ur teams first time of having a chance in playoffs doesn't mean you get the high ground. But tbh, I dont really care. if they make it great, if they don't make it great bc roster moves occur. Does not really matter. I think we have the capability and chance too because of our ability to adapt potentially, but twill see.

Makes me feel better that G2 was not slaughtered by them too bad.

posted 2 months ago

Yeah but that does not gurantee them a spot. They do look good, but other teams have looked better and fallen apart at a larger scale before

so could literally every team in every region because no one is guaranteed, ur point?

nah, that'd be cool tho

Don’t worry, chloric is playing. No need to fear, chloric is here

Yes of course. My only stance is that just bc pros use it, does not make it higher quality evidence. Because they are already at the top of their game and very few of them needed the aim training to be where they are at. Genetics play a huge role, everyone has strengths and weaknesses.

Im gonna do some research today on CINAHL and see if anyone has been curious enough to do some RCT’s on aim training.

Genuinely saves their chud organization and Zekken, aspas, and Verno can focus on purely fragging out.

Even looking at dif games. The best players of all time do not win train. Zywoo, donk, etc.

However, for ppl that suck, and are not genetically, blessed with great dexterity, or mechanically, then sim training is a good option.

The main point of my comment was to say that just bc a pro does it, does not mean it as evidence to it working.

posted 2 months ago

quality of pros does not = evidence; just as many who are as good or better do not do it.

G2 Jaw- I wished you put this one higher up so I could stop reading sooner. L ball knowledge, I love Jaw, but poor take. It realistically goes Trent, leaf, valyn (all 3 interchangeable), jaw, babybay.

Solution: Lukxo + Oxy to G2

at the end of his contract it is his choice. And also if C9 tries to hold him hostage, then they will not be able to sign higher tier players in the future and end up cooking themselves.

To be fair, NRG has never been able to adapt very well to this double duelist playstyle they struggle with.

Alpha value
Edit: Me personally, I have seen lives ruined from people assuming things about the other. It has even happened to my wife by people you used to be able to call friends. Their needs to be proof for me to hold statements with value. Rumors or guesses, it really just shows that you can be the kind of person to start a rumor and it can affect people in a very negative way. Not a shot at you, but... a statement from riot is needed is all im saying.

posted 2 months ago

The n word statement from what I understand is completely hearsay and there is no proof of such. I am a person that is incredibly happy to be proven wrong, because it means I learn more.

posted 2 months ago

Def implies 100% certainty. Which no one has, including you. if that is your guess, let it be your guess. Innocent until proven guilty standpoint. Riot needs to release a statement tbh. Even if it puts him in a worse spot.

posted 2 months ago

fair point, but that is not everybody. And if cane did rip hard r, there would be clips of it. FNS talked about it on stream, if these things actually happened, and someone everytime it happened no one got a clip or any proof. It really kinda shows it is more unlikely. It feels like most of the cane hate circulated from his ex girlfriends statements, and then people took teh assumptions, drama, and rumors on a wild ride because they are trash humans also.

posted 2 months ago

makes sense, not a justifiable ban for 1 yr hardware. Still need a riot statement because them going cold turkey on this means one of two things. They know the community will give backlash because it is crap, or it is so bad it could further taint his reputation and they are doing him a solid.
