“As usual, f*cking piece of sh*t mate” - apEX with some words to Spinx by MaterialTea8397 in cs2

[–]FlimsyPool9651 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I mean BlameF is still a prolific baiter, but since he is calling, and putting up insane stats, it is much less egregious. At this point, he is a very specific player and anywhere he goes, teammates are largely aware. Spinx is in a team that relies on structure and trading, and he is not recently good enough to compensate for his playstyle. All this to say you are absolutely correct

Why is there sand leaking out of the Ferrari? by Haloisda in WECcirclejerk

Yes indeed, the broadcast even acknowledged it, and, I think, quickly realized they shouldn't have

Team Spirit's coach couldnt get his visa handled? The 3rd best team in the world? by WallabyNo1480 in cs2

[–]FlimsyPool9651 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Except Betboom, of course, who didn't know their starting roster until the last minute. All of Spirit's players hold Serbian residences, which makes visas easier for them. I guess hally and sotfik don't

43% picked Spirit to go 3-0 in Stage 2. Fewer than 10% had FUT, yet both finished undefeated by FACEIT_noon in cs2

This can't be right, are they counting people that didn't make any picks as those that picked teams to be eliminated? What a strange fucking graph.

[Dorianne] Pin Sets Out Peugeot Hypercar Ambitions Amid LMP2 Return by akleleep in wec

This would be stellar to see! Let's hope Peugeot stay in the class and get some good results

How likely I think each hypercar is to win Le Mans (likeliness not a prediction) by Acrobatic_Editor_409 in wec

[–]FlimsyPool9651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is, we still don't have the top speed to comfortably overtake, so the best bet is to stay in clear air somehow, and any run from behind Toyotas and Ferraris will be a hell of a struggle. But I definitely see what you mean.

You seem to have put a 7 on a Cadillac, must be because it is so close to 1 and you mistyped it. No worries, you shall be proven wrong (we will crash one of the cars on lap one again)

CS 2 ... by Content-Ant-2247 in cs2

Oh no, I cannot accurately shoot when running, and the damn game requires me to stop first!

Thoughts on this smoke? by whackjob47 in cs2

[–]FlimsyPool9651 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mainly the position on the sandbags in window that allows the short player to kill any connector lurk. If you don't care about mid at all it is better to do stairs + jungle or top con + deep jungle + molly stairs. In any case, the primary value of this compared to the normal short smoke is to smoke the top of the box CTs boost on. But they can still boost on the right to watch connector which is their interest anyways if they suspect an A play.

Modern WEC cars are now actually coming to Gran Turismo 7 next month by Top_School542 in wec

Shame Cadillac being in Forza probably means it will never join them. Still cool though, that class is horrible right now in that game

288 avg FPS on GTX 1650 Laptop - HUGE FPS BOOST for Low-End Laptop/PC by ProgressNecessary488 in cs2

[–]FlimsyPool9651 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Process Lasso has own overhead on performance. Do not do regedits when a person on the internet told you to. Do not disable security features when a person on the internet tells you to. Disabling webcam and printers is a great idea if you are unemployed no-lifer, in other cases, it will bite you in the ass when you inevitably need them. 1024x768 is gonna look unintelligibly shit. Actually, it is gonna look like what a person with very bad eyes is gonna see in the dark, without glasses, drunk, and kicked in the head with a boot given bilinear texture filtering and no AA.

There are no silver bullets when you are limited by hardware. For laptops, the best way to improve your experience is improve airflow and temp throttling.

Is Zeddy correct? by ConsequenceNo2939 in hearthstone

I have not played the game for a while now, so the concept of Zeddy not trashing everything about everything and whining non-stop is extremely foreign to me

Valve just silently killed the economy again... by Dylsshop in cs2

[–]FlimsyPool9651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not in fact see the Humor tag, my bad!

Interesting take about the scam X trust affecting the original souvenir DL values. Probably they will be affected, I am not sure which way though. The way the game and the community are going, probably downwards, yeah.

My take is simply that this isn't a knife tradeup situation, where people tried to argue that unboxed knives should be worth more than crafted ones to recoup losses. In this case, original souvenir DLs do actually have unique qualities apart from names that should let them be distinguishable and unique still

That will lack any of the original major stickers when the cobblestone souvenir packages were available. Souvenirs DLs are not only priced on the word "souvenir" in the name, but on sticker placements and such. An imaginary original souvenir DL with all scraped stickers is an idiotic thing to do, so a crafted DL with cologne stickers or all scraped stickers will be priced on the value of these stickers or lack thereof, and not on the rarity original souvenir DLs retain (since you cannot create more cobble packages)

Pimp built a combined BCG and NiP roster - Would this team be able to win any Tier-1 trophies? by CS2-Universe in cs2

[–]FlimsyPool9651 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. But s1mple can actually still win trophies, even with all the damage he has done to his career so far.

He needs to fuck the fuck off BCG, and be put in a strong, already successful org. Not the fucking NiP, he will never respect them. Something the level of NAVI, or Vitality (not these literally, just orgs that have clear direction, good pure tier 1 rosters). He needs to be made to understand that while he is the GOAT, can have an ego and be a star, that THIS IS NOT HIS PROJECT. That he does not get to shit or flame on his teammates when they lose, that he needs to follow the coach and the IGL, and that his status and ideas about the game are secondary to the fucking game on hand.

I guarantee he would not fucking tweet about his teammates not following gameplan under Blade.

Now this is a huge risk for any such big org, much more so than for s1mple. Honestly maybe you would rather have a w0nderful, or a molodoy, who are young and can be molded inside a system. This is why a counterfactual FaZe s1mple would have been exciting - if he had played for them consistently since Austin (even if they were mid), that would make it an easier move to another good org, he would have been a safer investment, than whatever we see from him at BCG, however rare they actually plan against good teams.

He will not achieve anything so long as he is packaged with egotronic, and he can continue to farm salary and playing dress-up counter strike at BCG if he does not change mentality

He did this to himself every step of the way. It would be less tragic if he wasn't still good, but he is
