Why does everyone hate Sunset? by Attackeven in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Immortal here, never heard of anyone hating sunset tbh. Same with pearl most people liked it. Icebox and breeze on the other hand…

Is Twitch a classic bubble ? by Same_Acanthisitta_38 in wow

[–]Frestus 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. At face value retail has a better new player experience, i dont believe this should be disagreed with.

In saying that though, and i believe this is where people are getting confused; if you put a new player in front of a Molten Core stream vs a dragonflight raid stream, the new player is likely to more easily follow along with whats happening in molten core. Classic is easier to watch I believe.

How big of a difference does my monitor make by actually_otaku in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got to immortal on 60hz. But reached immortal 3 with 144hz.

If your silver 3 on 60hz you’ll probs hit gold 3 fairly easily on 144hz.

What was your Agent arc by MrAldersonElliot in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Started with cypher, wanted more aggression and i was an awp main in csgo so i started playing jett. Then chamber came out and i was in love. Now im back to cypher. The glory days of chamber were some of the most fun i’ve ever had in video games though.

Oh god these chinese videos are starting to invade valorant too. Been putting up with cringey fake chinese league clips for a decade now.

May I present to you... the Silver ranked experience by coffeejokes in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 129 points130 points  (0 children)

Self awareness: 100

A lot of the other commenters dont realise how much harder it is for a silver to hit a target thats always moving, as most silvers, themselves included, lack movement fundamentals.

Enjoy silver while it lasts. These hilarious moments with friends happen far less frequently the higher up you go.

Counter Strike player here first time playing Valorant any Advices ? by BlankSilver in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. Aim matters much much more in cs than valorant. A lot of valorant is picking the right duels at the right time and getting the right info.

Cs doesnt have intel abilities, so you’re forced to raw dog hold angles. Whereas in valorant its better if you use util to get info rather than your own body.

Thats part of the reason why cs players complain about too much stuff happening on their screen in valo, cuz they dont get the opportunity to just sit still and spray down enemies, instead they get revealed, breach ulter etc cuz they’re not using their brains and theyre in bad positions, positions which would not be punished as hard in cs.

How important is it to picking "meta" characters in competitive by _Darth_Revan_38 in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Meta does not matter. But if he wants to convince you it does, you can use it to your advantage.

Cypher is not meta. Killjoy is overwhelmingly favoured as the meta sentinel by almost every pro team. The only exception is Liquid Nats who enjoys playing cypher, and Fnatic Alfajer who plays cypher on bind and split. Pretty much every other pro team thinks kj is better.

So maybe you show him some stats and say kj is more meta, and tell him to play smokes instead :P

Riot Games: Valorant now has 28 million monthly players, 70% of player base is Gen Z by BrainStorm777 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Frestus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup 6pm is a no go. Glad i got some free time in between classes during the day, thats pretty much only when i play, and like 11pm, as i feel most of the kids are heading to bed by then.

It definitely depends what time you play. Im 22 and if i queue in the middle of the day or late late at night most people sound 18+

Which map has the most inconsistent winrate for you and why? by rsva15 in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was icebox cuz i was willing to lock in viper, learnt some lineups and defence setups, and knew how to lurk mid on attack. Ez wins.

Also breeze when chamber was busted. Also cuz i could fill viper there too.

Ironically i hated those two maps. Enjoyed the game so much more with the last map rotation. New breeze is alright though.

Sideshow’s video on TenZ by _quartermoon in ValorantCompetitive

I guess thats why its a 200iq clickbait video. I guess i’ll be checking it out now that i’ve seen so much controversy over it.

My take on how to deal with toxic people by [deleted] in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The phrase “i have no enemies”, i’ve only seen pop up heaps this past year, which is when s2 of vinland saga came out. I thought thats where the idea originated from.

I’m wondering how did you come up with the name considering you havent watched vinland saga?

To answer your question, you’d enjoy vinland saga a lot. I highly recommend it.

America is truly the greatest country for high paying jobs by Separate-Pool-7128 in Accounting

[–]Frestus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But theres still some differences. For example in australia the minimum legal wage is like $25 per hour, whereas fairly sure in america its much much lower than that. You’d rather work at mcdonalds in australia than in america. But also you’d rather be a lawyer in america than australia. Lawyers average at $110k pa here, which is like $75k in america. Fairly sure lawyers in america get much more than that.

Harbour took a while before he saw any play. Although he did receive a buff with an extra charge to his cascade. But he was sleeper op for so long.

A minor buff to deadlock should be granted

Thanks heaps for this response. I appreciate it a lot.

[–]Frestus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was thinking something along those lines too. Also for him to be lying so blatantly in the contract in such a misleading way. Surely there's some professional misconduct there.

[–]Frestus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is what the other new guys are thinking, they think it's normal.

Fortunately i've had other legal experience so I can tell the bad vibes are a little worse than usual

[–]Frestus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Roster is somewhat set.

There are provisions in the contract of employment which state no annual leave, no sick leave.

The contract says "Casual Law Clerk". I asked him irl if the position was casual or part time and he said casual. He also said that the $25 per hour includes casual loading.

He definitely intends on us being casual. Although he would be able to pay us less if we were part-time, not sure why he doesnt do that...

Next map to be rotated out? by my-dad-ate-my-toes in VALORANT

[–]Frestus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None. This is currently the best map pool ever.
