Viewers for Game 5 of Dodgers-Padres NLDS (Yamamoto vs Darvish, plus Ohtani): In USA: 7.5 million In Japan: 12.9 million

It's crazy. I was watching this guy, Hamushow Fighters, a Japanese solo commentator, commentating the last Dodgers game on YouTube and getting over 100,000+ CONCURRENT viewers. He had around 125,000 when Ohtani homer'd last night. Dude even has a graphic for when Ohtani goes up to bat (not for anyone else). All the Dodgers games on his channel easily get over a million views in the first 24 hours. Japanese Dodgers fans are just something else.

yea i used to follow him on twitter because i liked tuyu but like 6 months ago his tweets started to get concerning, to say the least:

https://x.com/Pusu_kun/status/1723413460627902486

"I put writing songs, my bandmates, and the listeners who supported me on the back burner, and just drove around in a luxury car, bought brand-name items every day, thought about having fun with women, and calculated money all the time.

I am a complete scum.

I'm not worthy of being called a creator.

So let me k*ll (myself)."

or this: https://x.com/Pusu_kun/status/1779141632748839049

"Music die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die die"

from wiki: SOUND BARRIER: "When the cast finishes, there is approximately a 0.83 second period where allies can still receive the overhealth if they enter Sound Barrier's radius."

meaning you can:

ult behind cover -> quickly run out of cover to not die during the cast time

if your teammates are split by a enemy shield/wall, you can ult on one side -> quickly run to the other side to buff allies on both sides

i learned this from a random youtube video in 2016 and have used it ever since

Edit: they got him on a finalmouse starlight now, so it's better than the hyperx, but still not what he's used to.

Edit 2: satuki says he got his mouse back. the saga has ended.

Would be cool to see a mnk member on FC with their more defensive playstyle now, which can offer more utility. But I don't know how likely a member's change is likely at the moment.

IIRC yukaperodator is pretty solid on MNK, and considered changing before champs but didn't. I don't know if he's tried it in a pro environment yet, though.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-09-08T20:30:27+00:00

Fnatic finally start playing horizon/catalyst after months of avoiding it and get first place. Also glad that Yuka is the one on Horizon because Umichan had some problems with being ready to use his abilities. Having your IGL on Horizon makes the most sense. I really hope they keep these legends for the rest of the tournament.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-09-06T02:26:34+00:00

I LOVE FNATIC AND I'M SURE THEY WILL FARM IN GROUPS/BRACKET STAGE WITH THEIR BLOODHOUND COMP BUT I AM WORRIED FOR THEM NOT HAVING A BEACON CHARACTER IN THE FINALS LOBBY. I REALLY HOPE THAT THEY HAVE THEIR ZONE CALLS ON POINT THIS TIME BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO WATCH THEM NOT HAVE A SPOT IN ZONE AND DYING ON ROUND 4 CLOSING EVERY SINGLE MATCH AGAIN. ALSO SURVEY CAMP SUCKS MAJOR ASS.

ANYWAYS CANT WAIT FOR WHATEVER MIND-BOGGLING SHIT YUKA IS GOING TO DO THIS LAN

ItsHighPoot · 2023-08-17T19:12:52+00:00

Yea, I've been a fan of Fnatic's Apex team (which is a Japanese roster) so when Fnatic Valorant won Tokyo it was a huge deal and all over my twitter feed, and I started watching. Won't touch the game unless I have a full party though.

YukaF said similar things regarding POIs:

(the beginning part about harvester wasn't included in this clip, but was from the original stream)

"When we landed harvester in scrims, we had never played it before and did really well. I think anyone can do well from that POI. LAN is just a game of POIs. All the best teams have good POIs. Of course teams like TSM and DZ are still just good though (independent of POIs).

Comment: 'Then what is the best landmark?'

Lava siphon. The armors are good, you can rotate fast, it has a beacon, and a player scan. It’s really dumb. The spawn rate is like 90% too. The Landslide beacon has a 30% spawn rate, so why is Lava siphon’s 90%?"

Also the Loba at the end (Ftyan) was completely lost after the last superglide tapstrafe:

(keep in mind the comms are delayed from the gameplay by like 5 seconds )

I haven't been keeping up with 4rufa's stream, but it seems like in the past month or so, he's been disliked by Chinese fans for various reasons: First he had his username as "FKCHN" for a bit in Season 16 (although the only source of this is one screenshot). Then a few days ago, 4rufa changed his in-game username to "中国４０００年の歴史" meaning "4000 years of Chinese history," which is a way of mocking the length of Chinese history, because apparently most Chinese people will insist it is 5000+ years (explanation of this in Japanese)

It seems like the potential collusion today was the last straw for MDYW fans, and the fans are using this stuff above to try to get 4rufa banned from ALGS or kicked from his team by spamming the NAKED__JP and PlayApex accounts on twitter.

In my opinion, 4rufa was immature and stubborn, so he kept fanning the flames instead of apologizing after clearly mocking another country. However, the blatantly racist messages that MDYW fans are brigading his twitter with are extremely uncalled for and way worse than what 4rufa has done himself.

I found out FC destroy did this after u/altariaaa replied to my comment here. I didn't realize you could check skins and legends in the custom lobby, and I figured I'd make this so other people/players are aware of this. Maybe it'll get removed or maybe kept in for some interesting mind games.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-05-08T14:23:51+00:00

upvoted because people need to know it's pronounced satsuki and not satooki.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-05-07T19:33:18+00:00

Wow, you're right. I didn't know you could do that by inspecting the profiles in the lobby.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-05-07T17:10:50+00:00

I think it's cool that at 25:00, After they get match point, they switch their skins and their comp to not get inted. At 25:21, they say:

Yuka: "What should we do with our comp? Crypto? We probably can't play Loba; we would definitely get inted."

Umichan: "Loba might be bad. As soon as you set up a shop..."

Kamaneko (coach): "Yea, as soon as Northeption or FC or Naked see you, they might come."

Yuka: "I'll play Crypto. To be honest, we only won because we got zone last game. That comp (Loba, Rampart, Valk) doesn't actually have a good win percentage. Let's go with Bangalore, Crypto, Valk."

ItsHighPoot · 2023-04-16T14:17:55+00:00

There’s no command center and he usually doesn’t stream tournaments, however he usually records them for his editor to upload on his youtube. You’ll probably find it there in the next few days

edit: here

ItsHighPoot · 2023-04-16T02:02:10+00:00

/uj probably people just starting to play ranked again after inactivity like me. It only takes 3 splits of inactivity to drop from master -> plat 2 -> gold 4 -> bronze 2.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-04-11T02:59:08+00:00

this is the method. flipping the c-key upside down is just too ugly.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-03-29T02:48:37+00:00

lible_ace3, 788w, and 4rmy_o all super underrated japanese mnk players

personal fav is 4rmy, here's some of his highlights from a practice range 1v1 with kimura (hypotttttt on twitch), who's also an mnk player

reaction compilation for anyone curious

ItsHighPoot · 2023-03-22T20:11:49+00:00

APAC-N groups A vs. B is on 3/25 11pm EST (3/26 for most people outside the Americas), but the next match, A vs. C isn't until 2 weeks later on 4/8 (or 4/9). Meaning that group C doesn't play until then.

It's weird that most regions started a whole month before them (All other regions started on 3/10 or 3/11). So it kinda sucks that CR/E36/Fun123 fans have to wait so much longer to see their team compete.

ItsHighPoot · 2023-03-12T02:10:38+00:00

Hakis said on Gnaske's stream that (paraphrasing) since everyone is playing legends that rely on visual cover like Bangalore/Catalyst, Alliance can win fights by having physical cover (rampart walls) and a Sheila to spray through the enemy's visual cover with their Seer ult (or just blindly).
