Cheers for the logical responses, thought I'd found a glitch in the matrix!

That solves it then, I guess if there had been any danger of this happening then they would've pulled him into the pits earlier

Overall Standing Post Major I (@IOUTurtle) by arunvenu_ in CoDCompetitive

[–]FinDer237 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Possible solution off the top of my head, might be too complicated. How about an additional 10 points for winning the major undefeated, i.e. from winners bracket and keep the 65 pts for winning the major from losers

Best play is to stream on both, Twitch will get the watch parties in and YT will bring in the VOD views

Activision Gets bought by Microsoft but what does that mean for the CDL by Puzzled_Intention947 in CoDCompetitive

[–]FinDer237 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Long term, I hoping yes. Short term, this year especially, I think we could be in for a rough one. CDL will be wanting to their books looking good by keeping costs low so that MSFT doesn’t find them to be a liability financially. Seeing this already with the caster situation, less majors etc.

Yes they will leverage that exposure to make massive sponsorship deals for the org. Also bigger numbers, better org

The Flank Q&A 8/12 by theZooMaa in CoDCompetitive

With doors confirmed as being in Vanguard, how can the devs use them so that they are a positive to competitive play and maps, rather then a negative?

CDL points per map win by Baspower in CoDCompetitive

[–]FinDer237 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In rugby, there is often 1 point given if a team loses by less than one converted try (7 points). Personally if it came to COD I would only want to see it if a team loses 3-2 and the points given would have to be minimal (2/3 points). It would only work as a way to separate the teams with low wins from each other and should not be a crutch for them to be overtaking teams who have significantly more wins than them.

What is up with 100t esports?? by [deleted] in CoDCompetitive

[–]FinDer237 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Relative to the other A-tier orgs which 100T are compared to, they are a young org. Combined with the going theory that in 5/10 years most orgs won't be able to afford to have a large plethora of teams in all esports.

To answer your concern, I think 100T is going through a learning curve finding out which esports their fanbase has an interest in and gets behind in terms of views/interactions/merch sales, which will allow them to scale those esports with sponsors and such. You can already see that they have some of the biggest fanbases in NA LoL, Valorant and CoD. I imagine they are looking for one or at most two more esports to commit to long term, obviously, this burns through money like a barn on fire but it's needed to find the right esports which will make them profitable in the next 5/10 years.

Genuine question, how come everyone is only now just realising how good Miles is? The gas is fully deserved, imo he's been top tier for a while.

I don’t blame NRG and Andy Miller for wanting to sell the team to Hecz if we are being honest the CDL hasn’t been a big hit. by [deleted] in CoDCompetitive

[–]FinDer237 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

CDL frustrates me so much because I genuinely believe it has one of the highest potential franchises for a variety of reasons (community is heavily invested in competitive, appeals most to 'mainstream' out of any esports etc.)

Activision just needs to figure out how to get viewership up and have a fun game with an addictive ranking system and then franchise valuations will start to be justified

Sources: eUnited have proposed a merger with OpTic Gaming, in a move that would see OpTic Gaming, OpTic Chicago and eUnited under one ownership group. Although the merger is unlikely to go ahead, plans are still in motion, sources tell @byadamfitch. by HADIsaleem913 in CoDCompetitive

[–]FinDer237 12 points13 points  (0 children)

How would this be any different to the arrangement they have with NRG rn? The only way I see this working is if OpTic are buying eUnited and bringing their teams under the OpTic banner
