its not as easy when you're a new coach and have a fan favorite in your team who just happens to have an ego/ideas that go against your philosophy. Take CR7 as an example, clubs actually fired coaches before letting him go until they realized he was the problem. I believe the same thing happens with Scream. But, his reputation is getting in the mud slowly but surely and he is losing that support which he rides on fast. If he chokes anymore with KC in future LANs, he's out and he wont have people behind him that he can use to bully coaches/orgs.

possible with anti-strats since they played all maps several times during prior split.

I personally believe the addition of scream made the whole team go down. yes, he's better than most players but sometimes you just need "good enough" players to make a great team. I still have no idea why he's obsessed with IGL'ing. he frags more, helps the team more, and wins more without IGLing. This obsession ruined TL and will ruin KC too.

sliggy because he actually gives you insight and why certain teams do certain things along with anti-stratting. sgares doesnt leak much so it becomes very monotone while TMV has been doing a good job since he joined acend. He was negative in his initial watch parties but he seems to be doing the analysis in a calm way recently. he does overrate APAC teams so take those with a grain of salt but he's the closest. Surprisingly hiko and his duo (i dont remember his name) but they make for very good analysis whenever a sova is played.

lmao, i have a similar one, hope loud and drx deliver for us in the end.

its fucked to hell and back but im somewhat around 60 surprisingly

NA frogs got humbled after their wave, LMAO

its not a "happy" laugh, its a cheeky laugh because their shit talk got kicked back to them and they have no response.

THAT BYE BYE AT THE END SEALED IT, VANITY WAS FUMING BITS

LMAO

WHERE IS THE BYE BYE NOW VANITY

WHERE IS THE BYE-BYE NOW??

lol

redgar is a goated IGL. dimasick is not it.

dont do it, just because its in night market, dont do it

hyped for the rematch

you're being mistaken, I've never defended crypto throwers, no amount of false allegations from you will help that. I'm just pointing out everyone on that team had similar kills, same with haven game with tarik being even lower than KJ and omen. so if everyone has the same kills and still getting rolled. dont you think its just a team diff and finding excuses to cope? why cant you accept that your streamer is ascendant?

do you have a response to my first sentence tho where tarik himself accepted he threw 4-5 rounds on split? or the fact that it was his deranking that split match which made the tilt go nuclear? I'm not defending crypto throwers but I definitely dont support bullying randoms because a streamer cant accept his real rank and he was the reason for the derank.

I can clearly count 4-5 instances where tarik on raze threw rounds by "running it down" and losing the rounds on split. Even tarik himself mentions that he lost it for them. the fact that they found bought accounts to release their frustration is concerning. Ive just heard those 2 accounts are banned too. Can you imagine having that power? do you think people wont be scared to talk to you? add in the chat harrassing these people, its a whole another level of bullying. I get that its tilting to demote from immortal to ascendant match with you being the reason for it, but I dont agree with this bullying.

dude, I'm just trying to see the other side because I dont like insecure streamers so I might be biased but I dont think crypto throwing is as big of an issue that these people make it out to be.

they were playing fine for 2-3 rounds but it quickly became clear that the other team was better. so, shazam and tarik get reali hostile asking them if they're crypto throwing and their usernames. they go quiet and stop comming. basically it completely threw off the whole team chemistry. This is not a tarik thing tho, this happens with many streamers who get hostile against bottom fraggers which leads to them going silent. Another issue is, many of the accounts in high elo are somewhat bought so "buying accounts" isnt necessarily a bad thing but that's an excuse for streamers who dont perform well.

lil bro cant accept he's ascendant and shazam has not been hitting shots today.

7/10
got the FPX, PRX, MIBR wrong

very good team, IGL diff

the trust in your IGL to get the other 2 kills, its beautiful

he's too egotistic to let others call for some reason

why does this idiot scream thinks he can be the IGL? they have great players just put your stupid ego down and let others call. also, why is he always buying on ecos? its fucking up their econ over the whole half.

"Sociological Analysis" XD

you dont think calling a country as d-tier is harassing but calling them out on it is? you bumbling idiot

just hold the flank every round and you get a free FNS kill, giants have got the flank down

you have to remember more than half the teams here didnt get here through merit so the punishment for not performing is brutal which is apt. I dont mind non-merit teams who got franchising getting rolled and going home after 1 match.

bingo

FUT can be beaten, so even if RRQ gets thru, VIT has beasts in every position that we would just get aim-diffed even though our strats might be good. They played well against 100T, so GE would get rolled I'm afraid

FNS and shazam dont like their indian/pakistani heritage, they try so hard to stay away from it. They're ashamed of it, everytime you ask them about it they say they're american XD. They cant accept their roots which I think doesnt warrant any support from indians. But, unfortunately there are a lot of indians supporting him and paying him for subs everyday. Personally, I dont like Indians abroad who self-hate.

impressive

get touted as NA's greatest hope before PRX, "APAC will not be able to deal with NA's best team", I dont think many people know the narratives that were flying that time, they got stomped to the fuckin' earth, Optic has the same narratives before master's, get stomped to the earth again in semi finals. I dont think people realize PRX is enemy number 1 along with a few other EMEA teams to NA players. I dont mind the trash talk, it only helps the game. But, acting like you're high and mighty to justify "your" trash talk as if guard/NA crowd werent overconfident before facing APAC region is stupid.

this match exposed their weaknesses, its good for them. they brough the strats out in Map 3 anyway to close it out. so they do have it under control to a certain extent.

why is the delay 30 minutes even after the 2nd match going 3 maps?

both games helped each other. CS was indeed getting stale a couple years ago but when valo came to the scene, it made the distinction better which in turn helped CS to regain its unique identity. The contrast between two games we currently have is healthy for the FPS scene.

it is since some of god of war streamers and dark souls, didnt watch/read harry potter but were still impressed by the combat.

this is how I know its a good game, ignoring woke fucks, most of streamers who played elden ring, god of war, dark souls are now enjoying playing hogwarts legacy. and I can guarantee there is no overlap between that crowd and the crowd that believes or writes these reviews.

this coward had the meta in his favor with chamber getting nerfed and still was a coward to get into a team in challengers. add to SR, m80, and zellsis making fun of him, its obvious no one respects this clown for his attitude.

I will always take personality casters over boring "analytical" casters. There are analysis videos a plenty, but not good casting for FPS games other than CS. sully and upmind > any duo in these tourneys at the moment.

"has no solutions for the players who are not top 1%"

lies about my profile to diminish my image because of the point above

I never argued about moderation in my whole post, I just said in my original post that your solutions to change the game will kill it and pointed out why CSGO and faceit are seperate because if they're merged, the game dies. They're smart. They also dont cater to the top 1% and neither should valorant. Just because your little circle of insecure streamers are unable to perform at the top, dont go suggesting to change the whole game for others. Obviously insecure fucks like you and your streamer friends have people/kids watching you so they believe that the game is as bad as they're making out to be through confirmation bias.

rito is useless for me in other ways with replay system, I would say that's more important for them to focus on than trying to soothe your egos. cheers.

edit: for reference, the original post of the reply before it was edited was "faceit has 20 M users, why do you think valo cant be moderated? also you bash female casters and a slime so I dont want to reason with you"

rito? I dont care about that money hoarding company. Also, remind me again why I care about top 1% or 0.1% if I want to improve the game's popularity and health in the FPS scene. That part alone dismantles your first 2 paragraphs. If you're doing well in ranked (your 8 radiant gun buddies) you have "completed" the game, the next level in your play should be a team and going pro in various tiers of valorant. Not complaining about ranked. So ignoring your first 2 paragraphs, lets talk about it faceit. Have you played in faceit above silver? have you noticed the queue times and adding to those queue times, there are still smurfs/griefers. I can guarantee you 50% of the "normal" games have smurfs/griefers even in faceit. Now if you're talking about top 1% in CSGO, then again your argument and debate becomes moot.

you want to change the whole game for majority of the people because a few at the top are suffering and having a mid-life crisis phenomenon. The only one who's under anyone's boot is you and your little group of friends at the top struggling to cope that you're not good for pro level and dont want to sweat after you hit radiant. I'm thinking about majority of the people, the normal people. I dont care about you, mate. Infusing with cash? do you know the age of valorant compared to CS? at this point in development, CS was struggling to even hold tourneys let alone worldwide LANs and competing with a 10 year old game on official tourneys. Playing valo even in local LANs has a lot of money now compared to CS.

Get over your mid-life crisis and tell your insecure streamers to accept that they're not as good as they think. stop changing the whole game because you cant go pro.
