Hello vctscrims. May we have some sources!

Lol they tried sneaking in the flex items not having knife speed cause if they did then some people would never have to buy a knife even if it'd make sense for flex items to have knife speed

C9 classic pretty good

if you're asking for the best looking ones, then IMO it's EDG, C9, DRX and Talon's looks a little cool IG

but yeah you should just buy the classic for your favorite team since it'll support them at the same time :)

How is derke and less related to ice and fire i must wonder

it's definitely a list

Okay, what's your definition of a broken character? Neon was most definitely broken even if her viability was limited to a few maps. She didn't change the way you formed compositions but she undoubtedly had a stronger chance of winning a fight than any other character. Are you saying that she was fun to watch even though she wasn't broken?

just like chamber, people got tired of her even though the mechanics required for the agent were high

Neon did NOT need any level of mechanics, only the bare minimum that you'd expect out of a professional. You didn't need to pace your sprint, you didn't need to think about when to slide, and when you did slide, you were often given a free kill simply for pressing LMB. Lol

You are making an argument where you don't want to understand the other side, you just chose to make a point and vehemently stick to it, which is why you are attacking my intelligence here instead of elaborating on your argument

Lol what. I just want to understand how this take could possibly be formed under the veil that is 2024, with Neon and Iso running around that year, they were definitely tuned far beyond needed. I didn't elaborate because I didn't expect you to respond lmao relax

Did we completely forget about Neon? Everyone, pros, players and fans alike were complaining about how good Neon was so she definitely fits your condition of a "broken character", yet you still found this year boring? Do you disagree with your own take?

how is it unfair? you can't buy the items separately and if the price remains unaffected, then you are paying the same price that you paid last year for a worse deal

at least for the other 3 i was also guilty of hyping them a bit, but i don't understand tejo hype to be honest. in the gameplay reveal the person playing tejo kills the enemy before his airstrike grenade or his ultimate could so that almost makes me want to think that the damage numbers on those abilities are a little small and riot wanted to show to use them for displacement rather than killing

edit: nevermind i guess they were revealed somewhere on a testing server? at least my friend told me

Deadlock release - what!?? her ultimate ability traps someone and kills them, that's fucking broken
Gekko release - what!??!!?!??! he can pick up his abilities infinitely??? thats overpowered
Clove release - WHATTT she can revive herself AND smoke when she dies??? what the hell rito
Tejo release - WHATTTTTTTT he... can stun... and he has a drone...

i don't understand why people are high on this team being anything but 12th though right now

who could bro possibly be referring to

most japan flags

The funny part is that this change makes EVERYONE less money. The unpopular teams won't make more money because their banner is the same as the popular teams, it relies on their team performance and everything else. This change just sucks the creativity out of it.

Last year, the only reason I considered buying a bundle was for the player card as I already had a classic skin and preferred it over the capsule skins. This year, I won't be having this problem.

"Balance everything correctly year" Wasn't EVERYONE complaining about the neon buffs? Did everyone just forget about neon and iso?? this thread is crazy

Sorry but i do not believe that for even 1 second... You have to have at least medium knowledge of vct for this list since it's not THAT bad... so unless your five year old sister is a casual vct watcher then this cannot be...

you know what they should've done, is adjusted the 24 skin instead. Then people would try and buy the skin of the team that wins champ that year and it'd be way more fun + i feel like they'd make more money since people would be more inclined to buy multiple skins to have a higher chance at the one with special fx.

and it just doesnt make much sense to add it to the 25 skin when they won champs in 24...

lets keep the ball rolling michael. im proud for you !

It is a good colorwave for sure, I'm definitely curious what teams will try and do this time around for their player cards though since a lot of them just threw the logo on the card and called it a day, surely they don't repeat? EG will probably throw their mascot on it I'm guessing

One thing I find funny is that judging by the way the thread was so excited I was expected the classic to be a little cooler just to be greeted by the same classic with new colors. A new layout would've been better but I know riot could've scraped the funds to make the model a little different too :( the default classic is one of the ugliest default skins i won't lie, it looks so 2d

I can't see it that clearly but I thought they would at least change the classic design layout between the years, kind of shameless

but i get banned for cheating despite averaging 675 tracker score. lol w rito

i'm learning japanese currently

it's a method. it's studying by watching, reading, listening to content in the language you want to learn and especially for JP, supplementing it with flashcards like anki. so this could be anime (w/o english subtitles), youtube, manga, novels, visual novels, video games, dramas and even western content with a JP dub

I don't think I personally used this guide but I know a lot of people reference it so you could check it out if you'd like to learn more: https://donkuri.github.io/learn-japanese/guide/

are you just going to be taking a course? if you actually want to learn japanese i'd highly highly recommend immersion learning. any other way, you are definitely looking at a 4-6 year long journey just to be at a fraction of the proficiency of anyone studying using immersion

I mean I'm a little biased but at the very least I don't think it'd be as much of a stomp as everyone seems to think. The one time the teams actually went against each other was during Madrid (which is a long time ago and I know all teams looked rough) and PRX did manage to get the win. Though, TH did manage to make it past the group stage which PRX did not do so that's a plus for TH. But furthermore, PRX has looked a lot better than TH in the off-season considering TH managed to lose to C9 (which maybe isn't that crazy also considering that they beat FNC and G2), but they also lost to M8 in their own showmatch gulp

And most importantly of all, is that Neon which I think is one of TH's favorite agents has been nerfed greatly and that is definitely in PRX's favor.

I feel like you're definitely underestimating Neon/Jett. I feel like as a agent of VALORANT they'd definitely have thorough hand-to-hand training even though their primary focus is firearms, especially considering it's a smaller, specialized unit and not mass produced soldiers; though even then I may bank on them having hand-to-hand training. They also have a lot of on-field experience and maybe they'll find a way to utilize their smaller build and sneak around.
Even though you still may come out on top on the end, having Neon/Jett in the same category as Clove, Gekko, Kj and Viper seems a bit criminal. (Maybe a second category for Neon/Jett in between where Cypher is right now?)

As for fade, she actually used to be a bounty hunter so I would put my money at least giving you some trouble.

Well vyse is metal because she's a radiant, so if radiant powers aren't allowed then I guess she's no longer metal here

W joul

Knew this list was going to suck when skye is at 11

i have literally never graced upon the words "in the hands of a better writer", i could see this being the case for franchise characters that are shared between writers but the author of re:zero wrote him from beginning to end. did you want him to pass the baton half way through? he's the reason you even see the good parts of him

the blueprint is overwatch itself. every mistake is a lesson, but luckily all of the mistakes are pre-made for them

Lol this is so true. You earned yourself a subscriber ! I'll be expecting more out of you

Did you forget you already replied to this post Mr RohffSadik? perhaps you are the one in need of a mental checkup 😭
https://i.imgur.com/28rHZ1b.png

yeah well, "tech" normally implies something more outstanding than the usual. and in this case, tp + flash is very usual...

also dont let him see this post or else the jig is up LOL!

"yoru tech" where is the yoru tech

1. dont even have a response for this, only got the red screen once ever out of 3 years of playing and didn't even notice there was a cheater in the lobby.

2. choke plays are apart of a player, i don't even know what to say to this, it's not the fault of the game. champions literally took place in korea this year, which is a hotspot for kpop if you didn't know! and the previous masters was located in shanghai, where kpop is still big. how surprised would you be if they featured a french singer at the champions paris event? is valorant now frenched... oh no... a worst nightmare come true for certain

3. there's no such thing as "cow milking" skins. skins can feel unoriginal at times, true, but you're never forced to buy them and you have nothing that obligates you to do so. maybe if this was a separate game where a paid item provided an advantage or beloved mechanic that was already previously featured in another way this term could be relevant. riot themselves says they want to make a skin for EVERYONE, so even if a skin seems only slightly different to you, it could be the perfect skin for someone else.

conclusion/tldr you are not the brightest

nut sacks

Dfm is the most overrated team in apac right now

its easy. but its hard if they dont give you a lot to work with

for example if ask them what they like to do and branch off that even if you don't have any particular interest in it

"i like to draw"

oh wow how long have you been drawing?
what do you normally draw?
i saw a really cool art piece the other day and it's just so impressive to me how someone can be this good

"i like to skateboard"

oh skateboarding? a lot of my friends are into it but i've never gotten that into it, looks really fun.
i've used a scooter before, they hurt
i heard skateboards can be costly

"i like to watch tv"

whats your favorite show
how much tv do you watch?
i should watch more tv, i hear about alot of good shows

even though they all seem kind of dumb and straightforward, any material can easily branch into a 30 minute topic and the information you learn in those 30 minutes can extend into another 30 minutes if you wanted. and if you run out of things to talk about then try and bring up something that was mentioned earlier, or something you did earlier the same day if you really are out of stuff. in most cases they're also stumbling for things to talk about so when you think about it like that you can talk about mostly anything. the harder part for me is approaching people but after that, conversing comes so easily.

but if they're giving you responses like "idk" as the answer to "what do you like to do" then you cannot do much. it's not your fault so don't attribute it to your lack of communication .its because you're talking to someone who doesn't want to talk

Why do I feel like Season 1 is better?

The characters are more fleshed out.
Character deaths were meaningful.
The games were shrouded in mystery.

half a decade ago sounds way longer than it actually is

yeah that's fucking crazy. that must be pretty traumatic. i remember i almost died when i was like 6-7 from drowning in a pool that's probably one of my most prominent memories. how much of early childhood are we talking? because i don't remember much either, maybe like 5 standout memories from age 9 and below so if we're speaking that range i have to be in the lower end as well. also, not really too related but i wanna throw it in because i've been noticing more recently but i have TERRIBLE time recollection. things that happened a year ago, i may think happen like three years ago. or if i think something happened like five years ago it happened maybe a year ago. people keep correcting me on this it's crazy how many times it has happened. i think it's due to covid

sensory deprivation tanks

no ngl that's kind of an obscure analogy idk what it feels like to be in one 😭

thats fucked tho. i was hoping it was a little more recent. i've been getting more interested about people's near death experiences / hard drugs and usually they try and describe their version heaven. just wanted to see if you had a story like that to tell :)

that was a very interesting fact, both the interesting one and the random one, thank you. whats it like being in a coma? like a dream?

can you explain why it would be busier than usual? people drinking a lot of alcohol for new years?

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

netero san 💀 😭 kill me

this was ice cold dude you should keep it up
