Jamppi isn't arrogant and tries to get better + isn't toxic/passive aggressive
SteelSeries Apex Pro TKL
I would never use 60% keyboard and don't see any point in it. You are losing easy access of F-keys, arrows, del button etc for minimal extra desk space. Sure you can learn to use layers and might not need those if only gaming but IMO TKL is superior and most versatile.
Well you could replace those teams with any from other regions and the arguments would make as much sense. You could replace the first 3 with G2, SEN and MIBR and it would be as valid.
FUT imo. Maybe I'm wrong, but I feel like last playoffs will repeat itself for BBL. From good form in groups to Lewn underperforming and Jamppi's calling getting exposed on some maps. FUT has some experience and as long as Xeus doesn't underperform bad they are pretty dangerous team. BBL has looked better so far, but I feel that they might choke.
Decent singings if true especially nataNk. Sad that Grubinho performed bad this season. He looked very promising at end of last year (like Kamo who has kept performing). Reminds to be seen will Soulcas or Sheydos get replaced if this happens. Lowkey I would say Sheydos, hes never looked that good on KOI.
7th-8th: FUT, NAVI
5th-6th: VIT, BBL
4th: KC
3rd: FNC
2nd: TL
1st: TH
Unfortunate that Click didn't click in tier 1, but honestly he had to be replaced. Zyppan was pretty meh as well sadly. Honestly 2 of the players I wished to perform the most from M8. This trio is very nice foundation though.
Banana - easily best fruit, most consistent taste, good texture and can actually cure hunger.
Grapes - taste good alone and is usually the highlight on salads etc because of good taste (red > green).
Mandarins(and similar) - good on their own, no annoying seeds like orange and easier to peel
honorable mention: peach flavor and lime is good for food making
Molsi has been looking better than Batujnax though. I just don't get what some see in him. Might be one of those classic "oh but Sliggy said he looked good and should play duelist so now I also think the same". Not meant as offense but maybe im onto something.
Batujnax isn't good idk what people are smoking. He had one good series on Yoru and now some people act like he is duelist god or something. He can't adapt to the other roles, has very bad decision making and is overall very inconsistent fragger. He was even mid in tier 2. And with Florescent well we saw what happened. She played decent, but importing player with big value (clout) is always very risky as they can just leave the moment they don't feel like playing.
No idea what they are doing. They make good tier 2 rosters (well just sign up washed tier 1 talent + young duelist), but their tier 1 building has been so bad. Governor? Batujnax? Even Florescent arguably as it was always very risky one. If this is due to trials then they must be doing something bad no offense.
bipo and Lime but not sure would MOUZ sell. Lime was rumored before Florescent so I hope he gets a chance.
because they fired big chunk of their production to save money
oh yeah both BBL and FUT (when Xeus is on) would also have good shot for 4th spot.
Right now VIT look like 4th best in EMEA (if even that at times). Liquid, Fnatic and Heretics all have looked better so far.
Always hated handhelds, but PS3/Xbox 360 was the peak golden era of gaming and I do miss that time.
100%. I never understood why NAVI wanted him so bad. I never rated him high, but maybe he was doing well in scrims or smth.
i think rumors were that orgs were interested him so NAVI just offered big deal to secure him early
How are people looking at Liquid and thinking they wouldn't qualify? Insane underrating for some reason. I would argue they would win vs Fnatic.
Depends what consecutive means in this context. But they could even though its risky and can be hard if long distances or otherwise bad weather etc. and targets aren't close to each other, because they would have to re-calculate trajectory. Overall sniper rifle recoil isn't really a problem as they are pretty much always supported by bipods or similar and snipers always have time to find good support for the rifle before shooting. And one thing games never get right is that in real life you always want to lean your gun onto something if possible to help with sway and recoil. You don't just run around and shoot standing up unless its only option.
Seasonal depression is real thing and it sucks. One thing I truly hate about this country.
Not sure exactly, but I would throw in Kamo. So far his fragging has been very good and he can play any duelist. He is arguably the best Waylay right now(small sample size) and his Yoru is very good as well. And he can play Jett and Raze just fine. His ability to play all these duelists well with good util and decision making is super strong. Allows Liquid to play different stuff. Strong fragging while playing well for the team and system.
well if servers die there isn't much that can be done by local prod
Well M8 popped off end of Ascension. Apeks consistently looked like the better team until finals. BBL PCIFIC player quality is higher as well I would say. Guys like Comeback, Loita and at times Lar0k look like future prospects. M8 only had nataNk as clear tier 1 player with maybe like LogaN at times.
No hate for him, but no idea why they even picked him. He was mid in tier 2. Guess he did well in trials or something. Same for Governor.
Not a pro, but experience:
Overall I don't think there's big difference between them. Your ears get used to any of them fast and even switching between them isn't mind blowing. Truthear Zero Red by far the cheapest(like 50$), EM6L by far the most expensive(like 120$?). I would say out of these I would go with Hexa or EW300.Truthear default cable is shit though so I would buy aftermarket ones.
Yep but used market is not too bad. You can even find RTX 4070 for 500€ at times here. After 50 series dropped those prices went down decently.
TL
FNC
TH/VIT, maybe FUT
I'm most optimistic about TL honestly
who the fuck cares
The team that is getting hard carried by EMEA import?
Nah Vitality will win for sure. They will very likely firepower diff even if Apeks players performed to their best.
Kamo gets so much shit for no reason (outside of out of game stuff). He was good last year and has continued being good for Liquid with great peaks.
Scottish accent > Soyboy American accent or Brit accent
Players: EMEA. Just so many players and there's so many who have gotten chance in tier 1 and have looked very good. While still having many prospects in t2.
Teams: I think EMEA overall just because of how many there are while still keeping decent competition . Historically EMEA top tier 2 team hasn't been as strong, but honestly I think team like BBL Pacific would be very competitive against other regions and rest aren't that far off either.
Well they picked Kaajak over Xeus and both of them showed more potential in tier 2 than Lewn. I think Kaajak just needs time. For example Keiko looked pretty shit first season and now he looks like one of the best in region. And even then Kaajak has had some solid games.
One of the most played and relevant franchises for past 20+ years?
They got bit unlucky because no one wanted to join them but holy has this org has to be one of the most boring ones if not the most boring in EMEA. They have brought up some good players like Kamo and Grubinho looked good last year, but outside of that holy fuck. 0 identity, 0 hype, 0 inspiration. Bring in some like MOUZ at least they could develop some young talent like in CS.
He was literally KC's worst rated player in Madrid. And yeah he was decent in Stage 1, but ever since he has looked weak. On top of that Magnum had to IGL and sh1n was pretty weak and isn't in tier 1 right now. If you look weak in Stage 2 and then next seasons KickOff and start of Stage 1, well that isn't good look. Hope he bounced back but I doubt it.
Yes I watched and he was their weakest during Stage 2 and has looked like GiantX worst player as well. Guy has been in tier 1 for some time now so he isn't rookie either anymore. And its not like he shows much potential either. Very shaky and inconsistent player with mediocre decision making and utility usage. It is how it is. I was big believer of him when he was in tier 2.
Not only one, but he has consistently looked like the weakest player on his teams. On both KC and GX. He is like TL Soulcas. Can have ok map and give hope and then disappear for rest of season.
Yeah that's the thing. And I'm not sure would they get cancelled, but they don't want to risk it. Players can't say anything negative about her or even banter because well I would imagine them not knowing her well and because they are too afraid to say anything. On top of that especially Yinsu always comes off as very pressuring in these moments. I'm pretty sure it was Koalanoob who had to rate these duelists and in end said that he would actually put Florescent lower and then Yinsu annoyingly goes something like "well you can't anymore she is now the 1st/2nd(?) best duelist in this list".
its not big thing, but its like treat her like normal player. Not even Derke gets this much glazing from production.
Yep. I get they want to support first GC player but holy is it obviously biased at times. "Rate these duelists one by one" and then they show mid duelists that took the spots from 2-5. and then put Florescent as the last so she guarantee gets the first spot. Same happens in every interview where they need to highlight her/ask opinions about her and no player can do anything than just nod and smile.
