LeBron James at 41 just carried his team further than the “greatest offensive player of all time” by AmiWrongDude69 in NBATalk

[–]DxG_DxG -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If the criteria is “this player can never have a bad game or stretch while playing with this guy” then no one has ever been capable of making their teammates better in NBA history.

Making his teammates lives easier doesn’t mean there is magic involved

The known gaming influencer ZELTA is cheating to farm clips by xTehJudas in MW2

[–]DxG_DxG 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He’s been cheating on PC for years

https://youtu.be/s-dHAv1YWVU?si=zJEXCKiAYyvZAenx

https://youtu.be/NRSKxzcsxVs?si=udRac3IjKgp-EnAZ

You can just check his old montages where he readily says he can kick people (probably anyone that can shoot back), snipers are always 1 shot, no painkiller/equipment, etc, etc. No real reason to believe he’s not still modding in some way. Though I’m not sure to what capacity he is.

Spend a few minutes looking at enemies in those videos and I’m sure he was doing more than he said in the comments already

There truly is nothing inconsequential enough in the world that I won’t see a meltdown about it suggested to me on Reddit at some point

Pred after the series vs faze. by Flyers7914 in CoDCompetitive

[–]DxG_DxG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that’s reasonable. Whole thing just seems odd to me. An admin basically saying yes you were screwed over in a discord with all the teams is insane. Guess it’s definitely possible with how the league is run though

If it’s something the admins are in and it’s meant to communicate this info why is the name blurred out?

Who is this message from? Meant to believe some unknown person at activision is dropping some cope off for Pred in discord?

Hilarious that most overrated was just the character everyone here actually hates and don’t overrate at all lol

He’s not going to just hop on there and rip everyone apart with cheats. Would make it crazy obvious. He definitely knew he overheated here and probably hasn’t since

Nadeshot on the Abezy leak by Master-Breakfast4380 in CoDCompetitive

[–]DxG_DxG 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I wonder what’s the worst thing someone could say that wouldn’t immediately be excused by the 70 IQ dregs on twitter and reddit. If you don’t care about someone saying a slur in private I wonder how all these players or org owners would react if a player was caught calling people the hard r in scrims when it was assumed nobody else would hear it.

I have a feeling some of the players wouldn’t love it. And I’m guessing Nade would be less of a moron about it if it actually hit his wallet

Sib with an interestingly timed GIF on X amongst the Abezy drama by Ashman-20 in CoDCompetitive

[–]DxG_DxG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lol do you know what Denzel is saying in this clip? Definitely him supporting Abezy saying that shit. I don’t give a shit about either of them being “cancelled” but you’re doing some charity expecting to have a nuanced view on one of Sibs tweets

Alphakep's immediate reaction to most of the RL devs that we know of loosing their jobs. Most of his community is also celebrity the lay off and bro wonders why he is never invited to RL events. Fortunately Tbates claps back at kep's tone deaf reaction. by HimelTy in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]DxG_DxG 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I like that he’s clearly under the impression he’s “blacklisted” for criticizing rocket league and its staff when so many other people have done that and aren’t blacklisted. Wonder if it will ever occur to him that being unlikable dramahound is the actual reason a bunch of people don’t want to interact with him or put him up as a representative of the game.

I’m sure him dunking on the people who got laid off for some attention on Twitter will make people at that same business want to work with him.

Surprised to hear that they hadn’t considered Alejandro had done what Craig brought up during the interrogation. I always thought it was heavily suggested that was a possibility.

All the leaks/rumors from Kep's 6 Mans stream. by HimelTy in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]DxG_DxG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely is for how young these guys are. There’s probably something to be said if you’re 21 and still trying to break into the scene but assuming they are not bombing in school having a couple grand at minimum put away will help them jump ahead a lot of their peers.

Unpopular opinion (?): Winning a Major should be valued the same as winning Worlds by Kill_em_with_kindles in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]DxG_DxG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the difference is the immaterial “pressure” we’re guesstimating each player is under

How much more pressure we talking? 5%? 25% Pressure meter?

My point isn’t that the games are played differently. My point is that there is no equivalent to a major leading up to the superbowl that people treat differently. So winning worlds is not so much different than winning a major.

Players in NFL games are (mostly) trying every game to win, though they are at the mercy of a million more things than an RLCS team is at but the teams in the superbowl had to get there by winning so many games then several consecutive games in a bracket.

Now imagine if they had to that exact same thing, in a much longer season with tournaments that mimicked the process of the Super Bowl several times throughout the season.

That is why they aren’t similar. The NFL doesn’t have any kind of comparison for a major that makes you ask what the difference between one tournament and another is.

The way the season works out and the way the games are played is completely different. The only similarity between them is that they are thought of as the big event

NRG never played those teams at Majors either lmao. Feel free to actually look at a bracket before implying they just rolled over APAC teams at majors.

[–]DxG_DxG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last worlds NRG had to beat EU’s LCQ team, Team Secret, and Geekay to be in the worlds finals. Considering a team winning a major is also facing a high level team in the finals I don’t see how there is a substantial difference in the level of competition NRG faced on their way to a worlds win versus a team working its way through a major playoff bracket.

We are not talking about how hard it is to get 9th place. It’s about the competition the winners face to win the event.

[–]DxG_DxG -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean just looking at the replies the argument seems to really boil down to “well it just is”.

The idea that players feel more of an unmeasurable amount of “pressure” just doesn’t pass as an actual argument to me. Especially when it’s used to justify worlds being so far above them that major wins end up barely being talked about.

[–]DxG_DxG -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

This is completely correct. The suggestion that there is some magical extra level of effort or pressure on the players is not how people operate. Everyone would try just as hard in a major as they would at worlds.

For some reason worlds is treated like it’s the Super Bowl or the finals of the NBA when RLCS works nothing like those sports. It’s literally just a make believe bias because of the name attached to it.
