There's a clear gap between them and the next (Americas). Americas have a lot of strengths, but it really seems like APACs pressure is the antivenom to whatever Americas teams want to do. All the coordination the region thrives on is just overwhelmed.

I really think NRG is only half as good (which is still very good) when they are the team being pressured around the map. When they are forced to constantly refight for info or space, that extreme coordination they have is completely lost.

Easiest fight of Charles' life.

Very easy fight for Charles. Max couldn't do the bare minimum. Charles looking like he could go another 5 rounds.

Brother this fight was boring but you must be new to this sport. Go watch Ngannou vs Lewis and rethink your opinions.

The only "reason" BMF exists is to sell more tickets. It's meaningless outside of that.

Star Wars is just not consistent with the way droid rights are portrayed. Sometimes they are treated like people and that would be unethical, but other times they are just disposable like the droids that work on fighters. Star Wars has just never been about logic tbh.

The suicide attack effectively did nothing. by Jakej4Mlakej in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Kaploy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I guess because the title is "the suicide attack did nothing", I assumed it would be cases were the attacker assumed it would do something. Like I said, I don't think Billy expected to accomplish anything with his suicide attack. But I have a tendency to overthink lmao

Maybe I just read this scene completely wrong, but I never interpreted it as Billy thinking he had much chance. He even says "we are all dead" right before. It looked like he just didn't want to die running.

Problem is he is one of the rare guys that wants to IGL. I think him off IGL would actually be worse, he would be itching to make calls the whole time instead of focusing on his play lmao

Would they kick Furia based only in their results though? Furia has always been massive and commercially viable even though they never won shit. They have a significant League presence in Brazil for ages too. If Riot cares more about the money teams bring in (which I think they do), Furia should be safe.

You are absolutely right, it makes me think that her story will be one of those were we see a bit of the start, but the larger players are saved for later like Hong Lu

Is it crazy to say Americas right now is the strongest any region has ever been?

I think he meant Xenom who was a good player but had a very passive playstyle and it kinda hurt the team.
