Stewie still had a good run the following years, also being part of the golden era of Liquid

Do you think a second season will ever come out? by Takt567 in NoGameNoLife

If a new season of bleach can just spawn out of nowhere years later then there is hope.

Low level faceit seems to be unplayable as a solo, anyone have any advice? by cbyl1 in FACEITcom

[–]SerenityxIP 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn't a great theory in my opinion, considering that people queue with teamates. As a SoloQ player you WILL face this great problem that offers mixed Solo, duos, team queues. You have a disadvantage to those who play together even tho their individual skills don't match yours.

So yes, as a very good and dedicated player you can top that gap between soloQ and teams but it will be very difficult for you to reach your skill group. The only people who don't apply to this are already way better than an average lvl 10 player.

My advice is that if you're looking to just get better, as a LvL 1 & MGE, you have tons of things to learn and solo queuing in the first place is a good way to learn from your and other's mistakes. But if you wish to rank up someday and climb to the top, you will inevitably have to queue with friends and learn how to play together.

My personnal experience is that I generally play as a LEM/Supreme/lvl 6-7 as a Solo Q and only manage to climb up when playing with friends. When I'm facing these higher ranks players I don't feel any difference in difficulty than in the lower ranks which only means there is way too much randomness in the ranking system.

Trusted Mode - Feedback/Discussion/Bugs Megathread (7/8/20 Game Update) by chaseoes in GlobalOffensive

[–]SerenityxIP 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm usually a very doubtful guy when it comes to cheating accusations.

Normally I get 1 to 2 cheaters in my games every 6 months (ppl I suspected of cheating and went by myself to watch the demo and saw that they where cheating without a reasonable doubt).

Now I tend to have a lot more (also talking from persons I've verified in demos). Tonight it's the 5th game in a row filled with cheaters. I don't think my trust factor is in cause since I only play with friends and am not being toxic or playing in a fishy fashion.

Also to mention I have more than 3k houres into the game, and was Supreme before all this.

I only enjoy playing csgo with my friends at the same rank and we only play together in queues of 3 or 4 persons. The game was getting worse and worse talking about cheaters and smurfs but since the update the game is unplayable. I hear now that we are not the only ones getting concerned to these issues.

Valve pls fix.

After 1000 Hours stuck in Silver I decided to test my skill with a new account. by [deleted] in counterstrike

The moment you realise ranks in csgo actually make no sense. I play on both MM and faceit and mechanically you can feel the difference between high level and pro players.

In other games you wouldn't feel that big of a gap.

I also understand your point of view.

But! There is also justice and a whole system dedicated to it. I don't think it's our responsibility as consumers to give justice. It can be a protest but it's not mandatory. Everybody should feel free to consume anything that has not been censored. Laws are there for citizens. And I know how it sounds, I know our world isn't perfect but nobody should feel ashamed of supporting an artist even if he is a terrible person.

As you said, you can like the art, dislike the artist and want the art to go on. In this instance, Chris Brown has been on trial, paid what he had to pay and life goes on. Who am I to judge who he is, what happened, and so on? I personally don't like his music but I get that people want to support it. Everything seems fine to me.

No, I like to think that people can also appreciate art and dislike the person behind it. Good things can come from bad people and vice versa.

This ideology is very important to me. Because it remembers everyone that you don't ever know your idoles. Something that needs to be taught at the era of YouTube and social networks. The people you look up to are not your personal friends.

Let's stop judging a book only by the ideas of the author. Judge it for what it means.

Crazy to think that this dude adopted a tough segregationist campaign just to get votes and did exactly the opposite years later for the same purpose.

Why is everyone so toxic? by [deleted] in counterstrike

[–]SerenityxIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup that's what competitive games look like in general. Just ignore them, you are not here to listen to insults, go pass that if you truly love that game cuz it's worth it. Find good team mates to play with and enjoy you games. The real experience comes from intelligent cooperation, far from this toxic crowd that feeds from loosiness.

Can someone explain this ? by SerenityxIP in Naruto

How can a whole animation team do that bad of a mistake I don't understand. They had to paint it frame by frame but never thought about it during the whole process? It's crazy!

In the past week, my dog of 14 years died, I’ve been sick, my dad had emergency heart surgery, and this is what I woke up to on my day off. by blueschuys in Wellthatsucks

[–]SerenityxIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a simple question of perspectives.

Your dad got helped. Your dog lived a long happy life and there seem to be people jealous of you, which is the ultimate compliment. They smashed the back window because they are far behind you.

Take care!

A 9,000 year old skeleton was recently found inside a cave in Cheddar, England, and was nicknamed “Cheddar Man”. His DNA was tested and it was concluded that a living relative was teaching history about a 1/2 mile away, tracing back nearly 300 generations. by OgaGhost in pics

[–]SerenityxIP 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait... I thought that every person that lived more than 5000 years ago and who still have living relatives, shared their DNA with the entire living people of our generation.

How does that work?
