In general, if you have trouble focusing and it is causing you to underperform in life, you should consult a doctor about it. Substance misuse, whether legal or illegal, is widespread in all sports and occupations, from blue-collar to white-collar jobs. Out of all, there are many best athletes in any sports disciplines that do not use stimulants to improve their performance. However, in esports, those who seek treatment for their chronic focusing problems may actually be taking some medication. In all cases, taking such medication will almost likely have moderately negative side effects that will make you unhealthy in the long run, if you continue to use them - let alone abuse them.

PLEASE THINK WITH YOUR HEAD before directly or indirectly suggesting to abuse Adderall/Xanax(before you edited your post) to young adults on here!

Raze is still the most common duelist for Jett mains as it always has been, though some teams prefer to leave Raze role for a specific non-Jett main player within their team(Al0rante, nukkye, zeek and such). Players such as Derke, d3ffo, twisten, QutionerX, Izzy, Fit1nho, Shalaby, Polvi, AslaN, Rhyme, Yacine and many... many more actually do play Jett-Raze.

IMHO FAZE need to find a new coach, as much as I hate to say that. And I really hate criticising coaches, but it's becoming more evident with each game based on their performance... + an analyst ofc.

FPX will stop paying Ange1 in mid-March if he is unable to compete for the organisation at that time, according to Bo Hoogland's sources. The entire story is still developing, however FPX has already found a replacement for Ange1 in Kamil "BaddyG" Graniczka, as it had been confirmed by FPX Eric "D00MBR0S" Sandgren.

https://medium.com/@BoDork/sources-fpx-withholding-payment-to-ange1-due-to-the-russia-ukraine-conflict-14699de39d6b

It is unclear from the report whether this is a temporary substitute or the beginning of a permanent replacement, though I genuinely hope we'll see more of Ange1's IGL-ing in FPX.

@ExodusXML, with all due respect and ffs, could you possibly refrain from painting your conclusions and judgments in purely subjective terms? Words such as "worthless," "decided," and "disgusting" have no place in this context because there are no formal announcements yet released. We only have as much information on the topic..., but we can wait and see how it plays out for the both sides. Thanks!

EDIT: Sources added.

It all depends on how an agent is being utilised by the team. There is no firm rule in the comps that says that sentinel or a smoker is destined to end up the game with low ACS. KJ for instance has two mollies and a turret whereas other agents have similarly lethal abilities that can add up to the damage. I've talked previously on how exceptionally Zellsis played on KJ(sentinel) during Reyjkavik. - - I suggest you to go and check his stats + the games as that was one the best performances on sentinel such as KJ you'd ever see imho. - -

Neptune's data, like Tex's, reflects stats versus similarly inferior opponents in the data I provided. The purpose was to demonstrate that both players are equally capable and prepared for professional competition against "mickey mouse" teams. - I disagree with your wording in this case. As a result, there is no need to compare them further at this time because we lack sufficient data. We also don't have enough information on Tex's Skye and Reyna, among other things. Even 300 rounds of data is insufficient due to the fact that the game is played on many maps, yet we make an exception to derive anything close to significance.

I'm not sure what kind of problems NRG has in their team, but one thing is clear: they've lost all four matches in their group. On 8/11 maps, the other two players had negative KD (returning to the OP's original argument). This tells me that the problem is far bigger and more profound than -Tex +zoomeraimgod. NRG may well end up in the same situation, if not worse, if Tex is removed. Therefore, I simply believe it is too soon to replace him. Moreover, we don't have a lot of critical information for such decisions, though NRG as a whole team sucked this time.

That's why I said omitting and not merely and entirely ACS, implying that ACS, ADR, KDA, FD, FK, and even clutch all together play a role in the analysis. However, if you understand what ACS and ADR are, as well as how each agent influences these indicators, you should be able to analyse the game's impact on a far higher level than what you've replied me with.

posted about 2 years ago

The stats link you gave only includes a small data sample of around 100 rounds, which is roughly 3-4 maps of gaming. That's why I included the sample of over 300 rounds because it's statistically more significant. To be honest, a better sample size would be around 1000 rounds, which we won't be able to obtain, therefore the closest comparison would be from the link I provided.

When it comes to Tex's performance, it's difficult to pass judgement on a single player when your entire team is struggling. It could be due to a variety of factors, such as role allocations or even couching issues (who knows...). But one thing is certain: if your team isn't performing well, you'll underperform - all roles are interdependent.

posted about 2 years ago

When it comes to stats, omitting out ACS and ADR is a bit of a mistake, as these two indicators are mostly used to measure the impact level that everyone is so talking about. Not to mention the fact that NRG Tex only bottom fragged in terms of ACS on 3 of the 11 maps you're talking about which puts him in a good position among the team's impact players. NRG Tex is far from the team's weakest player... but why are we even seeking for a scapegoat when the entire NRG team has been underperforming? - a bit unfair imho.

Besides in general, NRG Tex's Kay/0 stats are almost identical to Rise neptune's:

Bro, ardiis played a very crucial part in today's win versus Gambit(well done). He's definitely improved since his arrival and looks much better. Plus there's so much going on behind the scenes that we don't see/hear which purp0 might not be suitable for ;)

IMHO regarding Jett mains, Stimx, Quv3n, anq and Anoxai can offer same level of play, if not better than purp0.

Exceptional... +11 on s0m/+9 on Derrek in a +32/7MK game from Cryo is truly impressive! His highest ACS so far....

IMHO given good deal, an exchange of knowledge and expertise between regions such as EU/NA may be undervalued and should not be viewed as a bad choice, especially when such experienced players as rhyme and ec1s are involved. Wish them both good luck! <3

I get what you're saying, and while a situation involving cluleless Carlos is possible, in the real world, it's the head that gets punished, not the tail. If an organisation fails to monitor/manage its own employees' wrongdoings, the entire organisation is punished - no brainer.

My young padavan, welcome to the real world.... It's known as the HUMAN NATURE. Due to SCARSITY, some individuals or groups will always try to win or profit at any cost, regardless of the stakes or brand image(as you state). Brands as large as Samsung, plus many, many and many of others, have been found guilty of numerous collusions, frauds, and other misdeeds. Shit is real, nah cap ;)

posted about 2 years ago

Because if G2 and Giants had failed to comply with Riot's rules of conduct by failing to manage their own staff (admins, coaches, analysts, and players), which in turn affected other teams/orgs in Riot's qualifications/tournaments, then it is entirely their own fault and not the player's - if they were found guilty. It is not some kind of conflict that can be resolved within the organisation. It's a full-fledged scandal that could affect previous quals and tournaments. Yes, orgs lose money running their businesses in Valorant, but that doesn't give them the right to neglect and bend the rules by employing "win at any cost" tactics. This is an extremely sensitive subject, tho LOL.

Furthermore, as a community, we should stand behind our pro-players or at the very least wait patiently for the conclusions, as false accusations can quickly ruin a player's career etc.

posted about 2 years ago

Thank you for being a voice of reason. I completely agree with you that any questionable situation should always be traced back to its source, which is always management. So far, we've only heard accusations made at one person, but we are yet to hear anything about the G2 or Giant management teams and their possible shady practises - if the entire scandal is proven to be true. IMHO if proven guilty, both the Giants and G2 management teams were most likely fully aware of the situation and probably encouraged its players and coaches to engage in such practices.

Regarding the penalty, I can't comment on the proposed two-year ban, which sounds a bit too excessive to me, but I believe that a penalty of some sort for the entire organisation/s (again, if found guilty) should be implemented by Riot.

Alright I see what you're trying to say here ... all good. Though counting hair is not fruitful practice but whatever.

I have watched a lot of his games on Twitch and almost all of his officials. The OP mentioned: "Not flicky or aggressive shaky aim, but smooth one taps." Aproto is the kind of non aggresive or shaky one tapper. He plays a lot off his positions. When he gets into a hectic type of scenarios, he pulls those wide flicks but it doesn't mean he is not smooth.

Again, people mentioned here Al0rante, ScreaM or even tarik ... but all of them are similar in a way. IMHO if we go that deep, you can't separate smooth or snappy from aim in general. Asuna or TenZ are viewed as shaky whatever aimers but Rara, Aproto, Al0rante, ScreaM and other similar top aimers are all smooth as butter.

Besides, how do you find the best ONE TAP aimer? Only through HS% stats and Aproto is above them all - period....

posted about 2 years ago

HS% is an epitome of ONE TAPS + Aproto is a smooth aimer, in general. The Twitch clip was just off record bonus clip.... you better pay attention to those stats pages I posted. But I guess you're not familiar with him in general, are you?

Besides how ScreaM and Rara can be in the thread but no Aproto... again surprised.
