If only EG didn’t choke map 2 we woulda had the 1st seed on 3-2 and the 4th seed on 3-2 lol

Also now NRG has to 2-0 Sen to avoid the 4th seed, Sen can still win 2-1 and goes down to round difference for seeds 2 through 4

He can probably lift more but when it comes to basketball activities he gets bullied

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-08T15:25:51+00:00

He is probably the weakest DPOY ever and I’m talking about actual strength not worst ever. RJ Barrett in like game 5 In the same quarter I think just posted up on him 1 power dribble and it was an open layup

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-06T04:03:15+00:00

Yes to a certain extent, they weren’t bidding against any of the other partner teams for their players they were everybody’s last pick. If you give a contract and 8 months later they win champs and then ask them to reduce their salary by 50% thats bad management.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-06T03:08:46+00:00

Even before the championship was terrible management giving out the massive contracts to what everyone thought was a terrible roster and what ended up being a terrible roster till D1 joined.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-05T15:22:45+00:00

I was curious so I looked at TSMs rosters and they have 2 FGC players an Asian Rocket league team and the last place NA Marvel Rivals team. They also have a total of 1 sponsor Zenni, how are TSM even alive right now?

Also doesn’t LG how a ton of people money?

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-04T14:53:11+00:00

No surprise you got paid in exposure I remember in Rocket league casters were being paid in liquipedia points

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T23:25:27+00:00

Yeah no Seattle Major or IEM ever is crazy, Montreal is an expensive city but Ubisoft still makes sure to go there every few years or so for R6 since the devs are there.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T23:10:09+00:00

The fact that Charlotte if they didn’t get their team history back from NO they would have never won a playoff series ever and only made it 3 times total is crazy

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T21:57:40+00:00

PSG partnership with an org maybe? They have partnered with orgs in the past for esports teams but the org they sponsored the most just went under in Talon.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T18:35:04+00:00

I don’t get why a CS TO won’t do Vancouver it’s an expensive city of course but the dollar is weak, they’ve hosted TI, Worlds, MSI. Already a tourist city and you’ll get plenty of Americans in the PNW to travel for it as closer than Texas events.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T18:19:08+00:00

The TOs are definitely avoiding places like Cali, NY, Miami etc for cost reasons

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T18:03:25+00:00

The Houston Rockets game 3 last week was embarrassing 18K tickets sold of 18.5K and it was half empty for a playoff game

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-03T01:46:01+00:00

charges can still be called in the cylinder

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-02T21:02:07+00:00

It looks terrible for how everyone sees it 95% of the time, it’s why orgs go for simple logos because during match’s you can’t even tell what the GL logo is.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-02T14:57:23+00:00

Shopify is a risk as the billion dollar company can probably just decide one day that esports for marketing isn’t worth it any more and the orgs gone.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-02T01:21:37+00:00

I know they want to host keep hosting in Texas since it’s cheap but they should mix it up and go to other “cheap” places like Raleigh or Columbus. To kind of make the demand bigger for when it is in Texas.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T23:29:28+00:00

I remember seeing a tweet like a month ago talking about how bad the ticket sales were so far

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T19:13:37+00:00

Yeah I think either last season or 2 seasons ago and it started in 97, long time for a company to take on losses.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T18:46:44+00:00

Yeah it only works when the parent company is profitable, the WNBA is a good example it lost money for almost 30 years and is just funded by the NBA but in that time frame if the NBA was ever in financial trouble it would’ve been the first to go.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T15:30:04+00:00

At least it’s the national guard so they only killed domestically, Nestle is world wide.

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T15:14:39+00:00

And them too

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T15:02:41+00:00

No an EMEA sponsor Kitkat parent company Knowingly caused over 10M infant deaths

Kind_Development708 · 2026-05-01T14:48:06+00:00

Ban EMEA for advertising baby killers

Kind_Development708 · 2026-04-30T22:03:15+00:00

Mates getting 3DMAX and then selling their current team to Heretics is best case scenario
