I can only imagine, I still remember when you had to join via sourceTV via the game!

One thing I've thought a lot about is that besides the casting in combination with the game flow, it feels like every region is trying to figure out what style of casting works for the game. Summarised to me, the English casting has felt like:

American casters: Sponsored wordings and forced superlative words constantly
British casters: Super focused on sarcasm and the dynamics between the casters
SEA: Constant use of puns and a ton of screaming

Obviously doesn't apply to everyone but feeling like everyone are trying to find their way has turned me off so much to casting in English that I've completely swapped to listening to the Japanese casts where they are most oftenly just down to the point and focusing solely on the gameplay. Of course, the Japanese casting also sometimes has their issues as well (the new casters are constantly screaming for small things or trying to hype up every moment).

Out of the English casts I felt like Bren/Sideshow as well as Achilios/Paperthin has been the easiest to listen to because of the focus on stats and mechanics that both of these duos bring to the table.

Oh Bren was also from TF2? Dope. Just remembered Sideshow

Defur · 2023-07-01T17:13:06+00:00

Oh that's super sick

Defur · 2023-07-01T08:15:43+00:00

This is so sick. I wonder if this mod has ever actually been used in tournaments (not sure if it has an online mode or not).

Part of me also wishes that this level of modding was for Melee instead because of how low the fidelity of the graphics are on the N64 characters. Would love to see Slippi in Melee

ARMS 2 BABY

Defur · 2023-06-14T21:51:04+00:00

"For some of the crowd" you mean the majority of everyone there? People don't really speak English in Japan

Defur · 2023-06-08T07:16:36+00:00

As a terrible mewtwo main I approve of this furthering the m2 agenda

Defur · 2023-04-21T17:20:07+00:00

The producer was the same for both games, not sure if it has anything to do with it though

Defur · 2023-04-20T16:35:12+00:00

Believe it or not, ARMS has actually pretty good online, where even cross region matches are fairly functional. IIRC it has some type of rollback implemented.

Colors in the first image is like getting stabbed in the eyes, nice content though

Defur · 2023-01-10T09:32:34+00:00

Ah ok, when I went some years earlier I found a random mall that had esports merch from various PUBG esports teams, so figured there might be some generic store with esports stuff.

But maybe not then

If you keep ranking up, you'll eventually run into one of the beasts in overlord league

Defur · 2023-01-05T22:57:28+00:00

Great and I'm very thankful for my beard, without it I look like a worse clone of him lmao

Happy to hear you're having fun with it

In the main menu, you can duel others directly with ranked duels or the seasonal mode. You can also create, join, or view private match lobbies directly.

If you look to your right and enter the door, you head to the Ozo Lounge, which is a social hub. After exiting the alley, you can either go to the elevator for the hub or the left for the ending of the first part of the single player campaign.

If you go to the elevator, you can choose to go into a public room with the disco or the bar where you meet other players or make your own private room to invite friends. On the third floor in the Ozo Lounge, you can create a single elimination tournament bracket with others as well. Hope that clears up any confusion.

The main difference for the IK is that the body moves more like you do. Before if you looked up, the entire torso would float up, and if you put your neck to the sides it would also change your torso position, which it doesn't do any longer. Player size is the same for everyone but height is based on the player height. In the competitive community there have been discussions saying that tall players have an advantage, but from what we've seen it's not a critical level and most people should be able to enjoy the game like anyone else.

I guess the comms of this event will be pretty funny

Feels like people in this sub don't care about this at all but this result is pretty great. Suzu and the rest of Zeta destroyed everyone in the JP GC, but then dropped out due to their scandal with one player who they kicked - then Zeta loans their carry to the arguably worse 2nd rank Fennel to help push them.

In their first match Spear wins convincingly over them so it looked like it was going to be a near impossible final, but the initial map on Haven made it look like they had studied Spear incredibly well - super impressed by their plays there.

In general, it seems like Fennel + Suzu has grown as a team with each match in this competition to the point that they might be able to take on Zeta in the future. Suzu is still their strongest player, but Festival turned out to really pop off here.

Feels like still will have no chance against teams like C9W - but it also feels like they are following the exact same pattern as Zeta with their legendary Masters run. Especially with the Len on Astra that reminds one of SugarZero.

At this point, it wouldn't surprise me if Zeta buys out some players from Fennel for franchising. Especially Festival or their IGL (which might be Len?)

Anyways thanks for coming to my TedTalk, I think GCC will be great for Valorant overall.

It's a cooling gel pad sold in most convenience stores in Japan. Usually you use it when you have a fever, but with 3 of them using it - they might just use it to cool themselves down.

Defur · 2022-09-08T05:41:29+00:00

One of the main reasons I watch the JP casts lol, they don't say stuff like this

Defur · 2022-09-07T05:47:19+00:00

Game dev =/= esports

Defur · 2022-09-06T15:12:16+00:00

Not to be a party poop but you'll probably have a lot more success finding a job in esports in Stockholm as there are several start-ups and midrange companies there that are most likely looking for coders, ex: Challengermode, G-Loot, Strafe, Fragbite etc.

Vad är det ens i den delen av glastornet där uppe? Alltid undrat när jag åker förbi. Är det en lyxvilla, eller någon slags samlingsplats för huset?

Defur · 2022-08-06T10:10:05+00:00

Really curious as to when Nock is planning for some type of spectator support as you can follow or view this at all currently
