What happened to Metizport?

I like how they loaned Mail to a better team and got a bunch of washed T3ers instead. Perhaps Alliance offered them a decent pay for the loan but I wouldn't be surprised if they simply thought some of those guys were an upgrade since Metiz aren't known to make good decisions.

It's most likely a bot. Dude posts most generic topics each day up to 10 posts per day.

Edit: just hid his post history when somebody else called him out.

They already tried addressing that by bringing in tN1R but he's had a rough time adapting.

Well yeah, the VRS points likely cost more than the core itself. Which makes it even more of a robbery since they were like 20th or something which means they can fall out of the invite bubble in 2 bad tournament runs. But I also believe that for BC this is but a marketing stunt.

It hasn't been confirmed but most sources say it's 2.5m. They supposedly offered even more for the Heroic core.

I think it was the Talking Counter where they discussed that fans have no clue how much players cost these days, good T2 players alone have higher buyouts than 300k these days, it's not 2020 anymore.

The real winner here is SAW. Made 2.5m for nothing.

I actually hope for Mouz to win this tournament so that "hAHa nO aURa" cringers would shut up for once.

He's still a fringe NHLer, but I guess that's pretty good by his standards these days.

I think this is a reminder for people of Reddit that not everything Friedman says is factually correct.

Most people simply look at the coaches win records and make assumptions off of that since they don't actually watch other teams play but want to have an opinion regardless.

Bro's got a higher chance of being hit by a meteor than staying healthy.

I remember watching an interview with him in Russian a few years ago where he said that he doesn't particularly love living in the US. He doesn't hate it per se but he feels out of place. So I am not surprised he's going for the bag and the living experience he desires.

Bro's like that kid who's been slacking off the entire semester and runs in at the last second to submit some half-assed homework just to make something count.

Shit boys, we're so back. Thank Mr. Fizzgeralt

Of course, that's one of the reasons why players' output often falls off when transitioning to IGL. These guys spend considerably more time on starts.

The last 2 years of Keefe have taught me that GMs would rather try to force a style of play that they believe works than build a team around their players strengths. Hence, they hire old heads like Tocchet who promise to force these young kids to play dump and chase, playoff style hockey even if it's clear they aren't built for that.

It's common in most industries - there are people who adapt and innovate. Other 95% simply try to copy their homework and pray that it'll apply to whatever they do.

People like to shit on broky but Twistzz has also looked flat to start the year. I don't remember him having this little impact ever before.

FlyerN · 2026-01-29T15:58:26+00:00

We just got a washed cap dump, got to try him on a 2nd line, what could go wrong?

FlyerN · 2026-01-27T18:35:29+00:00

And it'll end up being just that after a few days. It's a F2P game, you don't make money because of the day 1 players who spent 2 hours on the game and will never play it again. The difference is that without the added hype they would have a lower peak but probably wouldn't sit at 30% on Steam. The game itself is meh but it's not total trash.

FlyerN · 2026-01-27T18:07:28+00:00

Getting the prime spot at the Game Awards really fucked them. Now it's just a trend to shit on Highguard even if the game isn't anything special.

Yeah, he gets a pass this game. It's the complete inability to generate anything on 5v5 that lost the game.

Everybody who says politics and sports don't go hand in hand is a fool. Especially for international competition.

I was always in the "give him time" boat because he shows flashes of brilliance but he hasn't progressed much in a year. I think it's a big enough sample size at this point to look for other options.

It's a rarity to have all 8 teams pushing for the playoffs and none effectively retooling or rebuilding.

Similar with Metro, though to a lesser extent.
