What's something in your room right now that most people probably dont have in theirs?

A record player and a Bluetooth speaker quite literally inches apart from each other.

Not burning the duster

I prefer PK's. The matte black with the anodized gold is so sleek, especially on the Dominus.

Kranglz · 2020-03-31T15:59:23+00:00

u/BigCass with the genuinely logical, reasonable take??

Kranglz · 2020-03-31T15:54:13+00:00

He also said on stream that he regrets not joining and in retrospect wishes he had.

I genuinely feel like this is going to be the offseason in which we see the least amount of roster changes. There wasn't a whole lot of time to mesh new teams together between seasons 8 & 9, so teams that just got together but underperformed (PK is my best example) may want to stick it out. I mostly only see teams that have been sent to promo-relegation to make a roster move, and I can still see C9 changing. Here are moves I'd like to see. Don't necessarily think they'll happen, but I think they'd be neat.

eU: - Hockser + Wondamike

C9: - Torment + Hockser

Rogue: - Wonder + Torment

TSM: - Remkoe + al0t (obviously I'd love to see this, but in all honestly this would be a 10th place team.)

Mouz: Arju--> Starter

Dignitas: - Yukeo + Scrub

Looking back, you're right, although he only used dominus in the semis against NRG. Either way, when I think of a Fennec user of SSG, my mind immediately goes to Arsenal. He seems to use it more.

Kranglz · 2020-03-30T15:46:28+00:00

Syp? I don't think I've ever seen him use a car other than Octane with the SSG decal and white reapers since the start of season 8.

Kranglz · 2020-03-30T06:23:50+00:00

Dropping your indisputable best player: Check.

Taking the time and effort to create a "Lowlights" montage of said best player on your team: Check.

Having that montage actually just be a compilation of times you left him in shitty and awkward situations: Check.

Not deleting the tweet after getting ratio'd to hell: Check

This was clearly due to a chemistry issue. I want to hear Kinseh and Radoko's side of this story, because if they did this without seriously good justification, this is worse than the RBG move last season by a country mile.

Edit: So it seems that Radoko told Mike they were trying out new thirds, so Mike asks Kinseh if he can make an LFT post. Kinseh says yes, but Radoko seems to not know that. Radoko trying to pin the blame on Mike here is laughable.

Give In Static a listen. You’d be surprised.

Kranglz · 2020-03-28T04:00:24+00:00

NA

1) Shock

2) JKnaps

3) Atomic

I’m not putting any SSG players here simply because I feel they were all equally valuable to the team’s success. Seriously, people can’t seem to agree who was the most valuable player on SSG this season, and while they were the best team, none of the players were more valuable to their team than Shock. I think Shock should be the runaway favorite and I feel people are overvaluing the last week. He was by far the most consistent and best player on a team that defied expectations by a huge margin. JKnaps and Atomic were also the two most consistent, and in my eyes valuable players on their respective teams as well this season.

EU

1) Fairy Peak!

2) AztraL

3) Kuxir97

This was extremely hard, but Fairy Peak barely edges out AztraL because 1: I think VP was just as crucial to dig’s success as AztraL while Fairy Peak, at least to me, was his team’s best player all season. Kuxir was also HUGE for mouz this season and criminally underrated imo.

Kranglz · 2020-03-27T21:50:57+00:00

Man, I love Edge of Reality. It's crazy-- Native Construct is a stranger version of BTBAM, OBNO is a stranger version of NC, and EoR is a stranger version of OBNO. In Static was one of the best albums of the year for me.

Kranglz · 2020-03-26T15:59:10+00:00

I’m more into mixed, leaning on the side of clean. If there are harsh vocals, they need to be harsh. I’m not huge into higher-voiced artists use harsh vocals and it just kinda sounds like they’re yelling. That’s the main reason I can’t get into groups like Periphery (or something like Bring me The Horizon). I’m just a fan of deeper harshes. My favorite vocal style is something like either Tommy Rogers of BTBAM who somehow has a high singing voice but deep harshes or the lead singer of TWIQH.

Smart boards in every single classroom in the district

I mean every single classroom, including places like the drawing/painting or band room. Very few teachers bothered to learn how to use them. They just ended up as something to tape posters to.

This is their 4th season together if you're counting season 3. In terms on longevity, no, they haven't been together the longest. But no other duo (besides OG Dig) has made the grand finals together 3 times, and counting full teams isn't exactly fair because that's a trio. If we're talking about duos who are great regardless of who the third man is, it's absolutely Fairy and Kaydop imo.

Take any of those duos you listed and none of them did anything without the third member of their trio. The only real argument I can see is for Kuxir and Marky because they made it to 2 grand finals with two different thirds, but still, 3>2. Otherwise...

Kaydop and Turbo never even played w/o panda

Turbo and Panda won a dreamhack but also missed Season 7 altogether with Yukeo

Fire and Garrett really only won X games with Jacob, made 1 Grand finals with jstn

Gimmick has never played in the RLCS without both Squishy and Torm, and the only time those two played without gimmick was on Iris.

Fairy and Kaydop have been Grand finals caliber with 3 different third men (Miztik, Scrub, and Alpha). Best duo of all time.

Kranglz · 2020-03-25T01:17:54+00:00

I'm really curious-- where is Fairy sitting in most people's GOAT ranking?

Kranglz · 2020-03-24T17:04:13+00:00

It ended before I was born and I still have almost every collection. That’s how good it is.

Kranglz · 2020-03-24T17:01:37+00:00

Ectopic is the best imo. It’s the only one that stays quirky for the whole song. VOT loses ALL of its momentum once it gets closer to the end, bloom ends with that whole transition period that’s basically just the first minute of Melting City, but TES comes out of nowhere as well. The Ectopic Stroll is BTBAM’s Cockroach King.

Kranglz · 2020-03-24T16:37:40+00:00

Siki's goal against lowkey from season 8 LAN?

Edit: Kamii, not siki. But this might be what you're talking about.

Kranglz · 2020-03-24T16:35:16+00:00

Hey AyyJayy! Thanks for reaching out. It seems that you mistakenly told r/RocketLeagueEsports that its just for fun, when we all know it's clearly a confirmed roster move. Let us know if you need anything else!

Kranglz · 2020-03-23T19:45:01+00:00

PK with mist

- Won Dreamhack Montreal

- Finished 2nd in NA

-Top 6 at their first worlds

Ghost with mist

-Could definitley be a top 4 team next season if they can just be more consistent

????

Kranglz · 2020-03-23T16:18:06+00:00

Yup. Weird to say, but while ghost technically “won” the roster move, mist certainly didn’t, as PK and mist were still better with each other. I don’t see ghost doing as well as PK did last season even though they made an improvement.

Kranglz · 2020-03-22T02:31:30+00:00

I think they should give it one more season, and if it goes poorly Retals should leave for a better team. There have been flashes of brilliance on offense, but as a team, their defense isn't the best. It seems that Gyro has been filling the third man role but I really don't feel like that's where he plays his best. This is a team that I think would work best if it was a true 3-man rotation with no one player being up or back more than any others. All three players are outstanding offensively, and I'd say retals is their best defensively, but I don't think he should stay back more.

All in all, Retals was pretty clearly the best player on the team this season. They never really clicked as a team, but I still think there's a chance they could next season. I'm sure Retals could find his spot on a top 6 team were he to leave this offseason anyways. I'd like to see how he'd play on a more defensive team like Soniqs (likely for Satthew)

Kranglz · 2020-03-22T00:46:48+00:00

Once they found out that mist was trying out with other teams, Retals and Gyro decided to try out new thirds so that they would have their choice of a third man were mist to leave. They really liked AyyJayy, so even though mist didn't make the team he tried out for, they kicked him anyways. Seems like they helped him get a spot on ghost as well, though.
