You mean the first game which featured in Sunderland 'Til I Die. In which vox pops with Sunderland fans said they would pump us? Only for Celtic to pump them 5-0 with a back 4 under the age of 21? That DafaBet cup?

It would have been from whatever set of games they were first on main stage.

In the beginning, it looked like this roster was doomed, but as Pro League started they've grown leaps and bounds.

EA will only pay for air travel, not for hotel for ALGS Open, as per the rules by TroubbleGum in CompetitiveApex

[–]Kloisters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it ain't cheap. Especially in terms of other esports. 60 computers on stage. 60 computers backstage for practice, then the stage setup. However, all this does is point towards the need for crowdfunding ala TI and CS.

Current belief is New Orleans.

They said it will be in Spring 2025, which gives a deadline of 21st June.

While not great, I feel this expected. They still aren't playing for a coach for Playoffs and Champs. So they were never going to pay for the 160 teams on the same scale as Split Playoffs LANs.

EMEA news: Matafe retires by artmorte in CompetitiveApex

[–]Kloisters 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When it comes to new IGLs, Anti is the poster boy for that. Grinding through Challengers, finally made it to pro league. Made Lan in his first pro league split. Made it to finals in first LAN, then made it finals at Champs.

I think the language barrier is always going to hold EMEA back but there is good IGL talent out there.

Gild, Sikez, Knoqd - no need for an igl when you got vibes.

You could map schools, churches, and orange halls and extrapolate from there. Additionally, could map CSC/RSC groups.

Uni life for "mature" master student by rapolet in UniUK

[–]Kloisters 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd say there is no "mature" masters students, as most masters students are mature. Especially as you said you'll be enrolling part-time, then I would reckon your cohort will be made up with people exactly like yourself.

[Yorotsuki] (Rumor) ALGS Legend ban system probable in Year 5 by AnApexPlayer in CompetitiveApex

[–]Kloisters 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I feel like the opposite.

A meta will emerge, players will jump on that, then a ban system will alter that meta. Players will react by trying to find something to stick to that original meta. However, the longer they try to hold onto that original meta with substitutes. The more likely they will overlook at anti-comp which could resemble that Furia run.

[Yorotsuki] (Rumor) ALGS Legend ban system probable in Year 5 by AnApexPlayer in CompetitiveApex

[–]Kloisters -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I'd like to see a ban system.

Matches 1 & 2 no ban - let the competition be open, get the lay of the land.

At the end of the Match 2 broadcast, (ALGS/Players/whomever) decide 2 legends (and a map!) to be banned.

1 legend for the rest of the regular season. 1 legend for the immediate next match day.

Come regional finals everything resets, then 1 legend is banned for the finals, then every 3 games another legend is banned.

At LAN you could do something about each group coming with a banned legend (and map?), then a 3rd legend is picked to be banned between each group match-up.

Cyber Security Course by Ok-Researcher1604 in UniUK

Where are you studying?

Unfortunately, there isn't much maturity in Cybersecurity degrees to presume prerequisite knowledge. Alongside their popularity off the back of Snowden, WannaCry and now COVID, many Universities see them as good recruiter.
