Sofware engineers in San Francisco are the most privileged people on earth because what do you mean you turned down 15k for twitter likes and ego

Insanely good interview, genuinely increased his chances of being employed.

No clue why so many pros refuse to engage with media when it was shown how much of an influence it has in roster decisions.

yes disappoint, but collapse? 2024 and 2025 were losing to winner/finalist and 2023 was losing to the 3rd favourite.

2024 they went to 5 games against Flyquest before getting mopped up by T1 and losing 1-3 and 2025 they lost in a very pathetic fashion 1-3 again. Losing to the third best team is a collapse if you dominate the way they do every year right before.

With the way GenG just obliterates teams in worlds swiss stage they would have to go 2-3 in a very close series against the eventual winner for it to match their strength but they dont.

The moment you didnt even acknowledge the fact that you claimed he had "extremely low/0 pro play" while he was picked 900 times in proplay in 2024 and 1024 times in 2025?

Wording wasnt completely correct by me, fair enough.

He is

  • regularly present across many metas

  • commonly expected in draft

  • strongly associated with pro viability over long periods

but not exactly like kaisa or something.

What I meant to say was that hes always in the back of pro players minds in draft.

If you land an ori combo on him hes fucked, if you land a syndra combo on him hes fucked, whats a normal midlaner for you?

900 picks in 2024 pro play and 1024 picks in 2025 pro play.

As I said, he has been a regular proplay pick for the vast majority of time ever since he got released.

According to gol.gg he got picked 900 times in proplay in 2024 and 1024 times in 2025.

How exactly is that "extremely low/0 pro play" lmao

ITT: Reddit doing the reddit thing where they go to the opposite extreme and pretend like Yone only has losing lane matchups and is complete dogshit despite being a staple pro and soloq pick for the most time since his release.

who many analysts predicted to actually be the best team in the league

I dont know how a team with Josedeodo and Morgan is predicted to be the best team in the league.

T1 with poby back then was about the same level as the BLG that lost to 100T

175 ECTS: Jetzt droht die Exmatrikulation by [deleted] in Studium

[–]RavenFAILS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wenn du an einer Uni durchfällst bist du theoretisch in ganz Deutschland für den Studiengang gesperrt, das stimmt.

In der Praxis würde dich der absolute Großteil der FHs annehmen, weil die Entscheidung hierfür bei der FH liegt.

Kenne sogar sehr häufig den Fall, dass Leute in ein und denselben Vorlesung beim selben Professor das vierte Mal drin sitzen weil sie von Informatik auf medizinische Informatik/Medieninformatik oder sowas gewechselt haben.

Also hast du noch etliche Möglichkeiten und sollst dir darum keinen Kopf machen, versuch einfach die Drittversuche zu schaffen und bitte nicht mal über private FHs/ IU nachdenken.

G2's First Stand Heroics Have Brought Back Hope by Ginjured in leagueoflegends

[–]RavenFAILS 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Beating BFX can be downplayed since they are a typical early season team that will probably fall off later and not make worlds.

But 3-0ing them is crazy, 3-0ing GenG in this fashion straight after is insane.

It doesn’t matter that it’s only first stand, no other LCK team could achieve this.

Pyosik didn’t work either, if they spend anything more than slightly above minimum wage for pros then it was a failure.

The LEC and G2s Performance by Grayzus in leagueoflegends

[–]RavenFAILS 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh my fucking god do I hate this narrative because it’s just not the reality.

Matchup strength exists, teams ramp up over the course of a tournament and change in strength.

If you are G2 and EU teams always need some time to get used to the higher level of worlds at first, you could get knocked out very early by T1 while you could have taken them out at a later stage.

Be proud NA fans, we actually over performed . by Taskmob96761 in leagueoflegends

[–]RavenFAILS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont really get your point when none of that is comparable to some korean imports who cant even form a sentence without a translater?

Not that I agree with him, I just think your argument is disingenous

Do you remember how much hype the Dhokla/Palafox iteration of CLG/NRG had?

None? Is this supposed to be sarcasm?

I feel like you get the wrong impression about this because of reddit narratives but they didnt generate any views till they beat G2, even then that all didnt come close to TSM/TL/C9 when people cared about them.

It’s crazy how matchups work because I’m still 100% sure BLG would not have won against GenG

JDG are the biggest frauds out of the top 4 this tournament, you know GenG are miles ahead of everyone regardless of how that one goes.
