I like all teams and most of you are a bunch of soft, overinvested snowflakes who care too much. /thread
haha. some dream team.
Though, i reckon they'll do fine in UCL. they are big game players and their egos won't let them get destroyed by any other top tier team.
Which team are currently the top EMEA female squad? I'm not too familiar with that side of things yet. I'll be paying attention to GC now.
Yeah man, mine too. But unfortunately it's hard to justify him in the current meta. Hopefully they come out with some cool buffs
Yeah, I wouldn't mind that once in a while, start of a new circuit would be the best time to do it. something to really disrupt the scene.
They could drop an epic lore cinematic for both at the grand final of champions.
on an unrelated note. I still can't get over the fact that SMB went to berlin and only played 1 official vs team from another region and played Acend twice who they've probably also scrimmed a bazillion times. what a boring turn of events of them.
regardless of how they played, that's such a shitty draw haha.
2022 will launch with 2 new agents in the first act.
Increase flash time by half a second maybe.
Allow him to cancel his ult by pressing X again. If you cancel, you keep your current position instead of reverting back to where you first casted it.
This creates a situation where opponents either respect the ult and give up space (which you can keep if you cancel in time without dying)
Or a situation where the opponents decide to not give up space and fight the ult. If they defeat you, you still gain value by having done damage /learned opponent positioning, but with minimal risk because you returned to your original spot which is currently the case.
And maaaybe don't lose all armour after run it back. returning with maybe 25 shield would be cool.
Phoenix is already a great agent, the issue is his competition is tough from jett raze and reyna.
Good stuff. But correction. Russz and Cned are not teammates. They just both happen to be Turkish.
Simple. You handle your commitments first, have fun later. The more experienced you get, you'll know how to balance it better.
Think about the impact of not handling your commitments at the right. Also don't rely on motivation. Motivation gets you started, discipline keeps you going.
You'll have time for both anyway, just stay on top of your commitments.
ignore him. You'll hear alot of people saying that, but don't talk to people about it, you'll just end up with spoilers or unneeded biases. So as a new watcher, just watch it with an open mind and form your own opinion. I personally think it's great start to finish.
no im agreeing with you haha. onliners in an online event. how do you think it's gonna go, they're in their element.
Brasilian backing.
You just called the Grand Final of Champions
Sheeesh. People must really hate Indians on VLR bro.
Compare you downvotes with the comment above xD xD
My Non Obvious Picks For Different Types of Anime Fan:
If you like the shounen, naruto'esque type shit. -> Stop what you're doing and go watch Thunderbolt Fantasy. You won't be disappointed
If you HATE shit like naruto bleach and you're interested in action but without kids saving the world -> Berserk or Castlevania
If you like more "grounded" themes that don't involve fantasy -> 91 Days
If you want the perfect marriage of sci-fi + anime -> Legend of the galactic heroes (die neue these) or Hero Mask or Psychopass
You're welcome my friends
10000%
Not my favorite, but it's high up in my list. but man i love this show so much. I'm due to rewatch it soon actually.
10x better than the teenage boys saving the world type shows people love. each to their own though!
I don't know if this is the stuff of dreams, but I would very much like this!
Apart from the Strike Arabia winner. It's the best chance either team has for an upper bracket W to be fair.
Actually it makes sense from a seeding perspective.
May not be the most entertaining. But it is the most fair.
The problem with you is that your clouded brain won't allow you to see that the presence of RNG doesn't mean an absence of skill.
Whatever education system you're a part of has thoroughly failed your ability to think objectively, and it'll hold you back in life.
"Imagine pros with 1 year of experience going against players with no experience. You will get shit on. Getting shit on = No gained experience. This cycle hence continues."
Like 18 year old Gambit winning a tournament against players who have played in countless regional A tier CS lans and a few majors....OK son. And that's besides the point. It's not riot's job to make sure teams don't get obliterated by major regions at tournaments. It's their job to ensure that they penetrate as many markets as possible and grow the playerbase. If riot wanted the game to be as competitive as possible. There would ONLY BE NA AND EMEA TEAMS AT LAN. PERIOD.
Yeah, perhaps the pro scene will suffer in the SHORT TERM. But there are going to be players and orgs who will supersede the current people who get dropped / defunded or whatever the case may be.
Also. Dead the narrative that Riot isn't supporting your region. I already mentioned above in replying to the guy who used Valve as an example, that Riot has shown WAY more support in year 1 of valorant for India. All of you who are complaining because India only has 1 LCQ spot must have blindfolds on. How is a dedicated tournament with first party funding considered ignoring???? You're smoking crack, respectfully.
They're not "spoon feeding" the other regions, it's called wise investing. The game is obviously going to generate more revenue in regions such as EU CIS NA TR, because these regions are proven to be hyper lucrative in esports. And SIMULTANEOUSLY they have already shown investment in minor regions like India/SA.
"esports wasn't that big"
LOL. I guess you're 10 years old. stay on your meds weirdo
ah i get it, you're beyond help. have a nice day. and set your alarm for your meds.
kinda true but so what. valorant is hot right now
Yep, have faith my friend. These things take time to navigate. Even if it' not a great showing next year, Valorant mobile is coming. And that likely will boost the game in that region tremendously having a knock on effect to awareness of the PC game. India will be too large a region to ignore in not too distant future. There's money there, and companies like money.
ahhh, I didn't realise a disband / big reshuffle was on the cards. Makes sense then.
Cool. You're talking about 2014. CSGO came out in 2012 and the first major tournament was Dreamhack which was 16 teams, all NA and EU.
You're referencing something that came out 2 years after the game had been out and re-established a community of players world wide.
India has more in Valorant in its first year than it had in CSGO. It's not an opinion, just a fact.
Also it's a different time, players have way more opportunities to garner support for their region and they did back in 2012/13 because of social media and streaming..
There's no way major region players and even tournament organisers back in 2012 would have known who the likes of SKROSSI were when the game first came out. Now we can't escape the name. This = impressions = money. Riot will not ignore this. so chill.
If India gets snubbed when the 2022 circuit is announced. Come back to this post and call me braindead.
NOT in the first year of CSGO the game. In any case, the first major csgo tournament had 16 teams and it was all NA and EU
My apologies. I didn't know you had seen Riot's road map.
My apologies that VCC (the circuit dedicated to India and SA) is organised by riot & nodwin, but the dude above you is calling it 3rd party.
Remind me also. how many South Asian only tournaments did CS, overwatch, LoL, R6 have in their first year organised by the Valve / Blizard / Ubisoft / RIOT / ESL / (Insert other large tournament organisers) that would grant passage into an international tournament featuring major regions with well established FPS history?
My apologies that you're emotional and will downfrag this anyway, because you're not comprehending the bigger picture.
99% sure I will hate myself for replying to this stupid post, but you seem genuinely convinced, so let me educate you rather than just calling you 1head. And your take is as 1head as they come.
How is csgo skill based or even esports? Every aspect of the game is RNG.
-tapping or one tapping
Even if youre standing still and you take a shot its RNG where your bullet goes. Also knows as first bullet accuracy.
*1 tapping is not the premise of csgo, it was not designed to be a 1 tap fest. 1tapping was popularised by a few players such as screaM who came over primarily from CS SOURCE, where first bullet accuracy on main rifles was far far more accurate than CSGO. Even though CS is not "realistic" it leans towards simulation, more than arcade on the action game spectrum. This is why first bullet innaccuracy is a thing. Furthermore, it is based on percentage chance DEPENDING on ranged distance. If you stand point blank at an enemy and fire with the AK at the head, you are going to hit the head 99.9999999% of the time. Same at short range, same at medium. Medium to long range is when you will see this dip slightly. And only at very long range will this drop to a noticeable percentage.
The skill to be acquired here, is how to control the recoil of your burst fire at longer ranges whilst strafing in between them. This is a skill that can be done poorly, or extremely well. It is not RNG to the point that a silver player could ever beat for example a global elite in like a 10 round duel or something. It's not happening.
Enter LONG RANGE RANGE WEAPONS. This is what makes sniper rilfes, auto snipers, and inbetween guns such as AUG and KRIEG more viable. They are designed for shooting at these longer ranges. This is what we call common sense/weapon design/ balance / whatever you want to call it*
-Spray
There is RNG in the spray as well, even tho it wont make a big difference in close range, its a thing.
As above. Recoil and spray control is very predictable, it doesn't need to be 100% the same every time, as mentioned above. There is a skill to be acquired here, in how to control recoil and spray of certain guns, and it is REPEATABLE with a high success rate. Spray in valorant, not so much. You can, with confidence in CSGO, miss your first bullet and within 7~8ish bullets in the same spray correct and kill your enemy. In VAL this could be less, or it could be a whole clip
-Run and gun
Complately RNG, your shots can miss even if you aim on them, but the enemy will aim nowhere near you and because theyre innacurate, it will adjust on your head.
You really are 1 head for this take. I can't help you if you don't understand why this is irrelevant.
-"Reading the game and your opponents"
There is no such thing, you cant read minds.
*Yes there is. Because there is limited time and a consistent objective, in a select few maps. You know what this means? There are not an infinite number of viable scenarios for your opponents to achieve their objectives. This is where common sense and META comes into play. Players will use generally accepted as "best practice" strats to win rounds. It's up to you to use your brain to brain to read and PREDICT these.
Did your team mate call smokes mid on D2? with flashses over long A? Then guess what, it's LIKELY (not guaranteed) there is an A split taking place.
Did your team mate get picked off while crossing doors? It's likely they will exploit the timing and take a B hit.
Are your enemies on shit cash? It's possible they're going to stack / push together or play some tight ratty angles*
I can't help you anymore. That's your parents job to fix your shortcomings.
Bro, relax, it's the first year of the competitive circuit. Wait and see what 2022 has in store, it's just round the corner.
Isn't valuable tournament experience considered prep these days?
ya, would be nice. perhaps we're not too far from it.
Agreed. With a constantly evolving meta and new things being added to the game frequently. I don't forsee CS style EU dominance (or vice versa) in this game.
yo....you good? things ok at home? wanna talk about it?
This is the type of thinking that would have picked SEN to roll envy. Yet they didn't.
Clown
It's a 3 team group. Get this seeding game bullshit out the window lol. SEN are out of the tournament because they lost to to 2 teams better on the day.
They took g2 seriously. Weirdo
Ignore people same dumb shit. The hardstuck silvers in this scene flip-flop like no other.
Insanely unlucky.
One team has a bad game while the other is on their SS game = a crazy 13-0.
Harsh world.
GG to both teams
And SEN. If they lost twice to Sen they'd have played envy
Really want g2 to win, that way we get both of them in champions
I honestly don't get what the pundits/media obsession with lakia is. He's a great player but they honestly made him to be way too much of a thing. They just looked clueless or stupid by hyping him up so much
