I think he's a solid player, sure he's overrated a bit but any popular player is. imo people rate him top S tier but he's more of a mid-high A tier player to me

can someone who speaks Spanish clarify, the subtitles say 'Ah' but my novice Spanish thinks the guy's saying 'hay' as in 'there is'

I know a place that will break you into a thousand pieces.
Stay away from them. Stay away from Lorca, Paco and Picasso.

DON'T ASK ABOUT LOLA

AH, CABALLO GRANDE, AH LOR NIEVES

But if in spite of everything, it occurs to you to visit Andalusia...
Don't say I didn't warn you. Be careful with the Andalusian Crush

fr that champs 2022 gf walkout with the yay beatdrop is legendary
https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxDZ0azjjWYVzBSRltcOvDLW0YNxWysKy3

they need to make a better incentive for teams to perform well and not just paycheck steal, relegation would be great but that defeats the whole partnership system, so it has to be less radical than that

(ik its minor) idk they just dont hit the same since franchising started, idk about other people but this whole boxing style walkout is way less hype than what they did in 2021 and 2022

pretty much yeah

growing pains with 11 teams imo, it will be fixed next year as we already know the format, but you do have an argument for LCQ, but I think the second split if done right has the potential to be better than LCQ, hopefully they learn to not do that half half bs they did this year

idk how big his following is in the russian scene, but im sure he has a place in t2 waiting for him if he looks for it

bro just hates emea

yup, you think russian rebuild is a good idea or build around what they have now?

Riens bro looking glorious

guess not

bro on that keto (prepare to feel sick)

I get flamed for it but I truly think demon1 was the only good move they made, I think he's a phenomenal player but I think he was just at the wrong place at the wrong time when it came to NRG. I think bringing in FNS was a bad move now, I would imagine it as an off season endeavour. In the short term I would've just tried to find a solid t2 talent to fill in the gap for this year

idk, I think something had to be done. We could tell from the outside that the internal dynamic was crumbling, which defo doesn't have a quick fix so I think a change was warranted

I'm guessing they'll alternative between the phantom and vandal, so phantom this year

otherwise they could switch up the gun, maybe like an op or sheriff

I really hope that its not Berlin again that would be boring asf so many cool cities that it could be

So AMER is Mexico, PAC is JP, do we know where EMEA is? I remember hearing berlin but idk if its true

bro is punching the air

Poor guy, maybe they could've waited until after the UCAM and TH game

yeah basically, but idk how personalised riot would make them, so maybe something like what they showed here https://www.youtube.com/live/xah-dc4Uf_E?si=RtkZFHaiHFuAn7s_&t=2790 (its kinda fast you might have to pause and play a few times)

gotta stay humble

I'm sure they could, ACE are in challengers now and LOUD are in franchising so I don't see the harm, but I'd still be happy if they did something for the franchising era onwards

memorialise each champs winner by putting a small spray or ornament next to wherever the team wins the final round at champs, so far we would have;

2021 ACE: Stairs on split, Kiles kills Redgar

2022 LOUD: Right outside short A on Haven, Aspas kills FNS

2023 EG: Tree on Lotus, Demon1 kills Jinggg

2024 EDG: Abyss on top site B, Smoggy kills Boo

just a small idea I thought would be cool.
Here are some examples of what it could look like (I had to improvise with the spray, they could defo do something cooler):

they qualified so idk if this counts

yes as in dive duellists should be selfless (eg you dash in and your sole purpose is to gather extra info and to distract) any kills are a bonus

idr know ab victor, I think at this point his skill would be at a level which would suit a team like c9 or eg, not really on a superteam, even if he does go for more flashy plays

yes for dive duelists
not necessarily for others
imo

I think if LOUD win all their games and EG lose, other than that I think its tiebreakers + a lot of people losing only for FUR, and I think mibr are cooked
but I could be completely wrong so if someone knows more please correct me

and to the argument of 'he saw what happened to qck' im sure if they don't produce results his job is at risk anyways, so either way he's screwed but atleast if he goes on duelist he has a chance to prove loud are the team that can compete on the world stage
