popularising the battle pass is not a good thing, infact i would argue that fortnite ruined game monetisation. i would rather just buy a game for 20€ instead of having like 4 different ingame currencies and shit. was a fun game in 2018 tho
ow, battlefields seem to be -95% almost monthly so ive been grinding those too, ghost of tsushima if youre looking for something other than fps
youre almost correct, the difference is, that saudi is doing this in the present. also im not sure if the CCP is directly funding riot events, but if you do find something about it can you link it cause im interested
edit: for example i didnt watch shanghai partly due to the chinese gov but also partly due to military service
idk im not boycotting it, just gave reasons people are. i think what hits the boycotting crowd the most is how riot as a company emphasizes inclusivity and stuff but then goes on to sign with EWC. Also whats mixing esports and politics is the funding that comes directly from the saudi government.
personally I’ll watch what i can, but i can still be aware of what is behind the scene
EWC is funded directly by the Saudi government as an attempt to make the country more involved in media and appeal more to tourism. This same thing is happening in conventional sports like football. People aren't boycotting EWC because its held in Saudi Arabia, thats a misconception I often see. People are boycotting EWC because its directly funded by an authoritarian regime. The same people giving EWC their prize pool are the same people that order journalists and LGBT people to be stoned to d**th.
The countrys legislation is also all sorts of fucked up, for example there is a "guardian ship system" where essentially every woman citizen in Saudi Arabia has to have a male guardian. The guardian ship system got toned down a bit in 2019, but saudi women still to this day need their "male guardians" approval to:
Saudi government also cracks down on protesters very heavily. For example womens rights activists in the country get immediately categorized as terrorists, and speaking for them or protecting them also gets you categorized as a terrorist. Many activists get over ten year long prison sentences without any previous violations due to their status as "terrorists." Even internet activism is heavily monitored, you could have a relatively small like 300 follower twitter account, and if you even retweet something about womens rights activism in the country, you could get the saudi feds on your front door.
TLDR: bad people who do bad things fund a tournament not to seem so bad.
imagine looking at vit and thinking derke is the problem
they need an actual igl </3
he's also ethnically russian but grew up in finland. he speaks a lot of russian in his streams
ethnically, but i think he grew up in the states im not sure tho
there is not enough words to describe how much i dislike his game
and there are hella emea players who have been good in t2. import slots are something used for star players and proven talent. not for developing other regions, that just doesnt make any sense
would make sense in a newer region like china but EU has 3+ million ranked players and like hundreds of t2 players, the talent is there, its not even hard to find. ig orgs just want quick fixes instead of taking any risks
just get one more low tier NA import ong
on a more serious note what the FUCK are some of these emea managers smoking, why are we wasting import spots on Governor, flyuh, koalanoob, crashies??
apeks manager is a fent fiend, theres not more to it
i want the same stuff apk manager is huffing, hope they get relegated
dont know most of them but im guessing this guy is valid
peripherals dont matter, you could go pro on a membrane keyboard and a ball mouse. i fear tenz has rotted everyones brains
too much of a hit or miss player to be goat imo. some rounds he just decides to win singe handedly and some he just throws for no apparent reason
ngl seen too many people with this specific flag flair combo being delusional is what convinced me
jesus fucking christ you guys are obsessed with this narrative
t1 looked mid before the tournament and it was also unsure if carpe or sylvan or both of them would be playing. if you have funtional brains you would have also doubted them, not that i would have put them below trace or sen.
"what is that is that a korean neighbourhood?" is what i hear.
guys im employed what are you talking about
suygetsu aims the reset... absolutely ridiculous!!
aint nobody crying. i was just wondering what yall think about it but seems like you guys like a league type game
when will it be too much? surely we cap the agents to like 35 or 50 at MAX.
imagine being a new player to tacfps as a whole and having to learn not only the fundamental mechanics, but also 60 agents abilites, a billion debuffs and 20 maps.
you cant really do anything for stuns without making them op. you already cant move, cant spray, your crosshair moves and you have hella clutter on your screen. if you introduce even a slight stun inaccuracy it would make stuns OP, since they would have no counterplay at all. stun kills are already really rare and in lower ranks pretty much nonexistent.
you seen the edg fans? whoever wins today, valorant loses
same for americas? and all of pacific and chinas trophies are also won by 1 team.
Trophies since the beginning of VCT:
EMEA: 5
AMER: 5
APAC: 1
CN: 1
idk why this is called a super team, their only superstars are derke and less
derke
i genuinely have no clue what youre talking about
might be the perfect player (trading your phenotype for ingame skill wins again)
well known tech to sacrifice your phenotype for ingame skill
i might be tripping but i swear this guy had chinese flag and edg flair when i typed that
this flag + flair combo always so delusional 💔
