call me the flash 😈

Potter owing NRG last year was gold. EG was not good at all last year but Potter still slapped Chet around and stopped him from play-offs. She told the team we are NOT losing to Chet.

edit - actually won't say EG weren't "good at all", they just had an average mid-table performance. Still better than NRG kek.

All it is. A team nobody expected anything from just finished 4th in Americas.

We're disappointed because it was close but this rag-tag mob was 2 points from beating G2. If this was Champs they'd still be going to Paris.

Head up, kings.

after 2 years of mid. nobody expected them to be good

you just don't know what you're going to get. EG will either be farmed in Stage 2 or win Champs. There's no in-between.

Feel the same, with EG out I'm rooting for any CN team, TL, and RRQ.

Removing supamen would be the dumbest move...In fact, removing any of EG doesn't make sense. Potter is obviously important, Supamen is important, Derrek is important, NaturE is important, Icy and Yay were questionable but they've turned up.

Just yapping about their glory days and Demon1 being dropped. Funny af tho.

Drama lovers get in here

CGRS came out of nowhere, placed #3 in Tokyo, ruined s0m's legacy, became a Gekko GOAT in valorant and disappeared in silence.

I forget ardiis was on NRG at one point 😭

Ngl, it's a fun AF stream. Shanks / FNS / Marved in call.

Noted. It's between a Pixel, Nothing, and Pocco. I'll watch some reviews and pick from that selection. Probably will just go for the cheapest of the 3, lol.

Thanks for the recommendations.

6a doesn't exist for brand new on Amazon. 😭 Is it discontinued?

Yeah, UK. I see it for £285

I'll check reviews

Tbh I prefer Android. Apple is too restrictive with their ecosystem

I don't play phones games tbh. I want something quick for regular use but a good display to enjoy videos on my break.

£340 for a Pixel 8a rn

Aight bet, I was looking at Poco and Nothing.

Got a Samsung rn, too slow in budget range.

I can afford £300.

Main things I care about are speed and display.

bro prayed for this day

EG is about to turn this forum into a warzone.

Is this how manga readers feel...Waiting forever for a game that'll be over in 1 hour.

correction: china has 11800x3D kekw

china has 9800x3D kekw

The TMV/Sideshow tory streams are underrated.

W, it randomly popped up in my head and I had to revisit it.

You watch/play Valorant, wdym there's too much going on. 😂

Week 3 Frag Montage // VCT Pacific
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vWzO_xJngI&list=PL-DEz63I-bfxBNl5_FtZi8BDHbRQ4WIyr&index=3

I don't know why APAC decided to casually drop the hardest VCT edit of 2023 on a random week 3.

I remember seeing this live. Still the hardest VCT edit I've seen tbh.

Thought so, I've had that offer a few times. Only time I order groceries. 😂

Iceland?

is the majority of the world?

Majority of the world probably doesn't think about it or finds it weird when they hear about it. The trans stuff is a pretty recent thing and mostly in America. I don't remember it when I was in school. They taught us about gay people but never mentioned trans or multiple genders. Most places don't even teach about gay people so that should tell you how things are, lol.

Skins are expensive af, and some of them are not even that nice. And then we still need to get Radianite to unlock the variants and effects. The quality of the skins has also gone downhill, and they even reuse some of the animations from previous skins. Don't forget, at one point they were even promoting the cardboard bundle??

I remember people calling out the store since 2021-2022. It's always been such a rip-off and they up ignored any problems we had.

It must be so awkward for Tenz because he's so likable but Kyedae just isn't.

I wish them the best of course but if anyone's ever had a buddy who's dating an annoying girl you know how awkward it is.

Yeah, let's not give Riot any excuses here. No real sport would get away with giving their players inadequate equipment. Football teams rebuild their stadiums every year just because it looks nice yet Riot can't afford like 50 9800X3Ds? They can probably make a deal with AMD and buy in bulk anyways since they're not a normal consumer.

It's just sad if that's how it goes out. Ethan and s0m are likeable people last time I checked but they'd look really bad if they left just because FNS was benched.

I hope FNS just really hits training drills over the next 2 months. It'd at least show he knows his weakness and is going to try and fix it. Anything else would really ruin my image of him as a pro.

We're eating so good. The overlap between both team's players is crazy.

leaf and yay were also on C9 during LOCK//IN

It's sad for me to say but FNS really doesn't look like the best choice to have on the roster right now. It's dumb that they can't sub him out without losing s0m and Ethan.

nAts is a great example of what FNS should be. He's super proactive as a sentinel and makes plays but if you watch FNS play he's afraid to take duels. He still has cool ideas like when did the huge flank on Fracture but whiffed his shot.

During his break he should've been improving but he just did watch parties and flamed other players. It was funny at the time but now he needs to back it up.

W RRQ fan

Honestly, once you've bought more than 1-3 skins, they've got you. I deleted my account and just never looked back. -500$ but it's not like I could trade those skins anyways.

I played ranked for one split and only reached silver but never touched it again. I'm too casual for all that stress. I just spammed swift play before I left.

I haven't played this game in over a year but I still enjoy watching when I can. I forgot exactly when I quit but it was before Shanghai Madrid.

I ended up taking a break because I was becoming sucked in by buying skins. I spent around 500$ before I just quit to stop wasting my money but I lost interest to play as time went on. Still enjoy to watch though.

Seriously though, I don't think it'll be a stomp.

EG would have to mentally boomed for that to happen.

Worry about MIBR buddy.

Exactly. Last time EG defied the odds it was because of their gameplan. Firepower helped but they were known for their strats.

G2 is easily the best AMER team right now but EG is also lossless since the last 4 games. Icy and yay are on fire right now + revenge game. I feel a good match coming.

They're both slow teams too so it'll be interesting how they play mind games against each other.

I heard even their mice and keyboards get inspected and have to be left on site so nobody modifies them.

Seems like life issues? Tweet says they were discussing it for months.

Kind of true. 80% of the players aren't camera-people so they just look stiff. We need more of KangKang's emotes, Boostio's standing, Zellsis' hype, Boaster's boasting etc.
