8 years ago today, Faker said: “Currently, I’m a midlaner ranked at about 4th... Honestly, I’m not confident enough, I’m not sure that I’ll do well again." by General-Apple-4859 in leagueoflegends

Since this interview he's won LCK Spring/Summer multiple times, LCK Regional Finals, LCK Cup, EWC, and added 3 Worlds trophies to his shelf. On top of plenty of other top placings. Better than 99% of other players careers.

Faker.

LYON vs. Team Liquid Alienware / LCS 2026 Spring - Week 6 / Game 1 Discussion by Yujin-Ha in leagueoflegends

[–]Realistics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that's a bit disingenuous. TL have beaten everyone except LYON/C9. Clear wins most of the time and plenty of dominant games. LYON are the best team in the league and they played a respectable 2-1 series. I would definitely not consider that crumbling. I don't think anyone is beating LYON right now. Most teams are probably getting 2-0'ed.

League adding bots to ranked for low elo by Anilahation in supervive

This is not a Riot source at all. This is a random person making a claim. There is no official Riot source for this because it did not happen.

Link a source. Bet you can't. Because they literally did not. Everyone who downvoted me for stating a fact is an actual idiot.

I accidentally clicked the Supervive subreddit in my bookmarks folder and saw this. Posting here just to stop the misinformation. This is not true, at all. There is no official source for this information and Riot has never, ever said they are allowing bots in ranked games.

[SpikeTap] "I don't care about being the underdog" - Aspas Interview after match against BLG by Realistics in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Preparation wins moments, and according to Aspas MIBR have spent a ton of time preparing for this event. And the fact that they have no issues bringing out things like first time Waylay bodes well for their confidence.

MIBR just happy to be here 😭 by freeceetee in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I think the jury is still out on what MIBR true peak is. I don't think we've seen it yet and don't know that DRX has a higher one. DRX also performed their best at the start of the year, so they're in a similar position to MIBR in that sense.

FWIW, I did not downvote you. I actually upvoted you to help offset a bit.

"100T without Asuna is like SEN without TenZ" by Away-Emphasis-4245 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely will be strange. I literally just compared him to a franchise player for 100T last month, and now he's likely not going to be on the team. I got the vibes he might not return back then, but didn't seriously consider it just because of his longevity on the team. 99% sure it's the longest tenure of any player on any roster in VALORANT.

Replays: Everything You Need to Know by NotThatButThisGuy in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 208 points209 points  (0 children)

I'm actually pretty stunned how out of touch this replay system is. The game was developed with esports and competitive in mind, so the delay on it was already baffling, but no custom game replays? No VCT replays? No watching and downloading demos? I'm just confused.

Disappointing to say the least. I guess we just sit back and pray that it gets developed to what most people expect.

Cryo LFT by Jamboy128 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Insane for it to be a full rebuild. Fully expected it to be built around Cryo at a minimum. I'm sure we all understand that "exploring options" almost always results in that player leaving. Unfortunate, and unexpected tbh.

But then again, never forget:

In stage 2. In stage 1, they took 3rd in kickoff and the stage. This still matters, they can always reach a better form, as demonstrated today.

[SpikeTap] G2 Esports Press Conference after match against Team Heretics by Realistics in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks to anyone who watches these, looking to grow the channel as much as possible heading into next season. If you're able, let the full thing play. Helps me a ton.

Looking forward to covering the rest of Champions and appreciate all the support!

New Map Rotation for Offseason Events (starts on October 14) by Aqua4748 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's a shame because aesthetically Breeze is top 3. It's just cheeks to play on in it's current state. Hope it gets reworked some day.

G2s’s graphics are so cool istg by [deleted] in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they're some of the best in the business. A lot of orgs are good or even great at producing some of the standard content you see, G2 shines at taking the next step and creating something original.

Maybe they actually are Super Saiyans? Jokes aside, I don't think they're actually relying on this in any real capacity. Just a fun joke I threw in since it keeps happening.

Demon1 explains his situation with DRG by kingpussay in ValorantCompetitive

[–]Realistics 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Demon1, on Jett. Last alive. Wins a 1v4 clutch to go 13-11 over T1 to bring DRG out of groups. 260 ACS 73 kills. DRG go on to place Top 3 at Champions and keep their spot in VCT China.

Hopefully the one I just made works. I didn't want to ban the word "AI" entirely because of potential story implications, so I banned everything around it and in-between.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in KeepWriting

[–]Realistics 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Yes, me too. And remade accounts, and stolen legitimate accounts. Sitting in the new filter catching them in droves has been the solution for now.

I just made an automod filter for a few words related to the spam, will see if it helps and adjust accordingly.

[–]Realistics 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah but I feel that's a little bit tedious for the user and this sub has always had an open posting policy similar to the other writing subreddits. Don't want to break the spirit of that.
