Ive wanted to play for a while and with the new season starting it would be a good time but every time I play, I get lost after laning phase and get flamed like crazy. How do I actually get into league and not go through the 1000's of "How to play League" because they only go over laning phase
vanity will be good, idk where the thought of him being shit came from but he is super solid igl'ing wise
derrek had a wreck of a year, eeiu currently is 200x better
thats exactly where I saw my first gameplay of it as well lmaoo
love the first game, really mixed feelings on the second one though
roguelikes: 2500 hours on binding of isaac, 800+ hours on slay the spire
tactical shooters: 3000 hours on CS, 1500 hours on val, 1000 hours on siege (hate this shit now tho)
RPG/JPRG: disco elysium (favourite ever game), xenoblade 1/2/3 (never played X), FF7(R), FF8, FFX, every zelda game pretty much (wind waker is the best imo but is probably mixed with heavy nostalgia, if they dont go back to dungeon based games im gonna be very very sad), Ni no Kuni 1
fighting games: SFIII 3rd strike, SF6, Tekken, Skullgirls
unless derke has the falloff of the century I doubt it, he's gonna be the KRIMZ of valorant for fnatic and just stay there his whole career
.1. Chinese | 2. Japanese | 3. Irish (only for breakfast though)
the sensor actually stunning people now is huge
aproto over add3r imo but idek if aproto has a team for T2 next year which is crazy
why would they have upcoming map change images in the game files though?
I believe ValorLeaks does work with Riot and gets a lot of publicity to upcoming changes, images such as the map changes couldn't have been datamined (I dont think?) and they were the exact same as the official Riot ones
got signed few months ago to play in VCL: France I think
That has always been the case but this would just make it 5x worse.
Also for fighting games, one of the biggest regions in the world is Pakistan. If Saudi Arabia becomes the "hub", many of these players would either stop going to nationals to fund the Saudi Arabia trip or not have enough money to go at all. With the way it currently works it is better, it is not good and the rich do have it easier but there are still chances the way it is now and I do not want it to change to a "hub".
Ireland: uhhhhhh juseu probably
One of the biggest problems to me, specifically for fighting games but also applies to many genres, is the absurd amounts of money. Smaller scenes are going to see a fall off in the number attending as people will need to save money to go to Saudi Arabia every year for their chance to win big. If it continues, it will fully kill the smaller scenes and new talent will be much, much harder to find. People are going to have to become known through online and that is nowhere near the same consistency as in person at smaller events. A lot of people who are poorer will simply not be able to go to these events in Saudi Arabia without sponsors and local tourneys won't exist.
TO's are also going to be massively impacted by this, many of them will simply have to change job because they won't be getting the same numbers of entries which means less sponsors which means no money to run the event. Video games should not have a "hub" for esports. Video games are world-wide and cannot be condensed into a smaller area without the need for lots of money on both the country, which yes they are willing to invest but also the competitors. I really hope this shit stops because it will hurt the general population of many big titles' esports players, so many people won't be able to compete that should get the chance to compete. Esports will become a "between the richer people, who is the best?", rather than simply who is the best.
vitality definitely better than liquid, giants and liquid on the same level imo
make it to 2024
he was the best IGL in EMEA before + he is insanely clutch for fnatic
I seen somewhere he was going to Vitality but who is leaving Vitality for him? I don't really wanna see Kicks be pushed to 6th man but he probably won't be taking raze
AMERICAS / LEV & NRG
EMEA / FNC & VIT (maybe Giants here)
APAC / PRX & T1
CN / EDG & FPX
Not sure if it recency bias but Frieren is genuinely incredibly well written
Summertime Render
Made in Abyss
Heavenly Delusion
The Promised Neverland (ONLY SEASON 1, THE REST IS SHIT)
yeah just shows how good saadhak's leadership skills are
for boaster he seems pretty momentum based, if he ever loses a bo3 or a bo5 they always look worse next game
johnqt and saadhak my favourite players from NA
it sucks for those 4 though because likely wouldve left EG without contract jail and they wouldve been treated much, much better
Are potter, c0m, jawgemo and screwface staying? If they are, I would argue the team could still be very strong if they pick up the right players
sick roster, if they can get around IGL issues then easily best NA team
no problem, just remember it isnt a sprint, its a marathon. It could take a very long time before understanding even 50% of the sentences but it is incredibly rewarding when you can. Good luck bro
learn basic grammar then start immersing, aim for 2 hours a day of immersion if you really want to improve quickly. playing games in your target language always helps and listening to podcasts, watching youtube videos, movies in target language etc.
I play insane when drunk and play like ninja when im hungover
sparkling water if that counts (especially out of sodastream)
MIGHT be a good IGL, there is no point taking the risk of someone who was one of the best in their role and pushing the into IGL. It is proven that every new IGL from another role will take a hit to their level of play and that is something you don't want to risk if it isn't guaranteed they will be good
not sure if it is still a thing, but derke used to call on defense for fnatic on some maps back in 2022 and he would not make a good IGL full time
started watching it a few days ago, can confirm it is incredible
ritual music
vlr always gotta be rude about other countries
traditional music from countries such as ireland and china is much, much better than american music
both countries that are great to visit and look great at a glace but when you have to work and live there it changes
sweden need to be held accountable for making surströmming, they dont make the list
