she's very good but we dont really know how she'll fare against t1. T2 though, easy pickup, this is common knowledge.
Ignore the tards on vlr, she's getting picked immediately she leaves sr.

who cares its bum tier either way. Why is bro drawing a line between shit and shittier shit

posted 8 months ago

gc doesn't scale so your argument isn't valid yet. I do think she's good tho. We just have to wait and see

depends on the system, non-agentic player

Alexy or l4ce, if you want a decent "superteam". If you just want a regular gc team, then idk anyone who isn't ass

posted 8 months ago

they are. Rezq is ass but they'll still place top 2 lol

bro dodonut is good are u high? Not better than flor but she mops rezq

posted 8 months ago

flor is most definitely a plus, but the results would still more or less the same. This team is a disjoint mishmash of 4 of the best individual gc players in the world

mary wasnt that good, Petra better duelist

it would be the same results with or without flor

there aren't enough (good) papers that could be applied to the specific case of esports.
Tbh i think there are some differences, but for choice rt the differences are marginal enough that they can be ignored at +1 s.d

Im not transphobic, she's just not AFAB. I think its easy to understand what I mean, but I could go further.

brother please let go

a couple decent placements at funhaver & nerdstreet in 2023, along with some good pug individual performances. This year has been ass tho.

posted 8 months ago

pretty sure it would be huge (profitable too) for the org if they broke into t2, they've dissolved their t2 team after all

posted 8 months ago

no I'm pretty sure they try at t2 too, they're just not that good. I think they could much better than they are on two conditions

  • if they were more heavily "incentivised" too : they're slacking a lil, gc money makes them comfy

  • they split up: gc players are kinda special in the sense that they will show higher performances individually than as a team, so sarah noia and a couple other could probably get into tier2 teams.

posted 8 months ago

they'll just serve as a physical reminder that fns shouldn't make any dumb mistakes this time

  • mel pivoting to analysis is most likely

  • flor is a shoe in for most challenger level teams, but it doesn't do anything for female representation, which is kinda what I'm addressing

  • sarah and noia are interesting, I think they could get into decent t2 teams if they try hard enough

  • alexis should retire

The team that wins this invitational is placing top 2 next international event, @me anywhere

Fact checked by true Brazilian patriots

If mel can't give solid t2 results this year, then it's actually over I think. This is a pretty hard problem with the current state of t2, but she has the tools necessary.

They'll win this champs tho, so cool.

That said, gc is a dead league, and upcoming exceptional female players would be way better trying out for collegiate/academy teams.

posted 8 months ago

marginalized genders aren't the problem, this space was made to house all of them.

That said, there is some undeniable variability between the avg AMAB and AFAB players, even though I cant concretely explain that as of yet.

Coupled with the horrible state of t2, GC has become a conundrum, and there is no solution. It all falls on the individuals now.

posted 8 months ago

there used to be much more of a push for integration in time past but now the gc teams haven't shown fruit they're moving away from that, which is understandable.

That said, I wouldnt advise any female player looking to break into t2 to go the gc route.

posted 8 months ago

I thought this meant soop like the player

posted 8 months ago

gc doesn't incentivise this. They're starting to move away from the integration thing tbh. Now it just feels its carving out a "representation" niche which is boring asf

posted 8 months ago

I'm just not a big fan of how bad gc has failed honestly. A single woman in tier2 would do more for "representation" than all of gc, but all the women who could've achieved this are in gc simply due to better career prospects.

Inversely, any woman who ignores the gc route and isn't exactly exceptional would probably be shunned and told to "just play in gc lol".

Funny how an initiative meant for integration has been turned completely on its head like this.

Study 3: https://sci-hub.ru/https://doi.org/10.1111/j.2044-8295.1980.tb01766.x

Argues that men and women perform evenly on choice rt tasks. owing to their significantly faster decision time which complements their slower movement time.

The paper is kinda shit, as the core of their argument is fractured between multiple equally outdated papers (locked behind paywalls I cant bypass), but men and women between the 20-30 age range have been shown to perform at around the same range , so their conclusion is true I guess.

Overall the argument is boring, even for scientists (they'd much rather research age differences and decline than sex) and the differences are marginal.

I think it can be be done if exceptional females could be incentivized to apply more effort, and gc fails at this.

posted 8 months ago

I'm talking pre franchising. If MAJKL mel had split off and kept trying for t2 instead of being elevated to some poster girl, she probably would've. Sarah as well.
idk about noia because gc made her come here in the first place.

posted 8 months ago

Kinda germane now so bump I guess. Poorly researched draft of an insane idea so dont go all "scientific rigor" on me, however I do think there is some legitimacy to the subsequent deduction.

Ignore other arguments in this thread btw.
