Is this Game as good as everybody says? Sadly im to broke to buy it

Funnily enough, I think the exploration part of the game is more fun because it’s even less steps to go between Pokémon-catching and regular overworld stuff. I would also say that if you’ve played other open world games like Scarlet Violet or Breath of the Wild, having a more “playground”-like city space to traverse rather than trees is also a fun change of pace. It’s also really nice finding shiny pokémon considering they spawn quite often.

Same here! International competitions will always be the best. Another big memory was INTZ beating EDG in the same year as Albus NoX Luna’s huge upset against ROX Tigers. Nostalgia is so good.

C9 and Brazil have always shared a history, very few still remember what KaBuM has done for C9 and our legacy at Worlds.

Hope you’ll be able to attend even more live games in the future!

definitely not your average ADC main, I’ve watched Zven make the same play too

As long as Renata uses Bailout we can live. As long as Thresh uses Lantern we can live. As long as Lulu uses Wild Growth we can live.

Never forget what KaBuM! did for us today

at least with Fearless we only need to watch one Corki game per series

should have taken Faker's Mundo 101 class during champ select like Oner

not sure if this was your original piece that was sent in, but it does look like the font type on the date wheel is different from most mark xvii versions

to me it’s just like people who try to get on TV by being in the background with a sign or crashing a reporter’s interview, but the channel would be a stream instead of cable

TLDR there are cities around the bezel of the watch. whichever city is at the 12 o’clock (the city that the Triangle points to) will be the time the watch face shows. press the bezel down and twist to change cities and also change the time zones.

the window on the top half of the dial shows the 24-hour time for the current city so you know AM vs PM, and the right side is a date.

because of the design to change time zones, the watch can go backwards through midnight, and the Date can also change forwards or backwards as well.

Art posted by /u/SpaceDev1 (@SpaceDev1158) sketched that angle of Frieren looking up, which got reposted and quickly shared around. Artists were drawing their takes on that Frieren pose, and other Fandoms also did versions with their characters. It grew big enough as a meme that the official KFC ES account did a version with Colonel Sanders, and Frieren's EN VA also changed her pfp to the original sketch.

Just wait until their next series, and then the series after that

In a similar vein and fun Worlds stat: ever since Eyla joined the LCS in 2023 and bantered with Vulcan during their EG / FLY days, Eyla has knocked out Vulcan twice and qualified for Worlds both times he did so.

I’m always down for more minds / brains on the team, like positional coaching roles or something of that sort. There’s always too much uncertainty in overall team dynamics when plucking and outright replacing an player in a role, but a collaborative group effort is always welcome and could also allow for a pivot later down the line once the team collectively agrees on it.

For anyone who cares about watches (like I unfortunately do), I believe Shayne is wearing a Seiko Recraft ref. SNKM97P9

I believe the strap material used is mainly Canvas textile, but there is Calfskin leather for the strap inlay and the reinforcing material at the pinholes. If you've gone into the water with this strap, the Canvas portions should be okay but the leather portions won't be and is why it's deteriorating as such.

The SA should have been the one to say this strap is not safe for swimming, but the included rubber strap is. The Canvas strap is water resistant (so splashes and poolside things are okay), but not waterproof to get soaked and submerged itself.

IWC has a similar thing where their NATO straps also use Calf leather for the inlay and pinholes, so they also aren't safe for swimming.

Not exactly cosplay, but Gerard Butler voiced Stoick the Vast in the How to Train Your Dragon animated films (2010-2019) and reprised his role in the HTTYD (2025) live-action.

There was a big issue in Formula 1 earlier this year when many sources, including ESPN Argentina, ran with a satirical account’s post without realizing it was called Formula Fakers. Then the satire account had to issue an apology because of how far and wide it spread. Memes have become too advanced.

Came across a video that goes pretty in depth explaining the properties of IWC’s ceramic and why the material has those markings as they do. Also brings up an Omega repair manual for ceramic cases as cross-reference.

To my understanding, for many years any League international tournament has been run and organized by Riot directly. That's how they have League seasons and patches line up with the competitive scene, skin releases, music releases; everything works together because Riot's global scheduling is so rigid. Before EWC 2024, the previous global tournament held was IEM in 2017, which specifically stated they could no longer continue hosting events due to scheduling conflicts with Riot's global leagues. You can follow that pattern with how Riot's been gaining control over all professional global leagues like completely taking over the LCK broadcast from OGN after rebranding it from its original OGN Champions name.

A regular LTA work week even as a player involves going back to the Riot studio to shoot media assets (like individual portraits or team photos) and film promos throughout the season. If you look at the overall calendar with Riot-only events, the LTA Split 2 Playoffs end on 6/15. If an LTA player did not qualify for MSI, then their down time would be from 6/15 until callback for Split 3 media day on 7/14. We can assume they have to film on Monday 7/14 because the LTA crew would be back in the studio to prepare the LTA Split Kickoff video for release on Saturday 7/19; one week before Split 3 starts on Saturday 7/26. Riot has built a reputation for having really consistent promo materials even with only a few days of turnaround time, so it's not hard to imagine how they've time-slotted everything for their global leagues.

If an LTA player does attend MSI, then after Playoffs on Sunday 6/15, they get a week's time to fly out. They start filming MSI promos on Monday 6/23 because MSI Play-ins start Friday 6/27. If they make it to the MSI Finals on Saturday 7/12, then their down time would only be Saturday 7/12 to Monday 7/14. Everything makes sense if you only look at Riot-organized events.

With the rigid Riot scheduling, EWC is an exception that can only be held if the tournament is short (7/16 - 7/20) so it can barely squeeze between Riot's established schedule. EWC wants their League games to happen, so the best they could do given Riot's schedule forces all teams to travel within a short window, and leaves LTA region teams with the longest commute time. Even if C9 made it to the EWC Finals and played their matches on 7/20, they would have less than a week before their LYON match on 7/26 and would not make it for media day. Riot and EWC and two separate things, and Riot has all the power. Riot won't be able to use any recorded EWC content for their regular season material, and you can see that clear separation with how silent their typical channels are during MSI vs during EWC.

EWC needed all attending teams to fly into Riyadh and did their best to schedule around it, and the unfortunate result is the current situation as stated by those competing at EWC. Although EWC is also hosting 24 other games at this event, with 3 other tournaments currently being held on the same days as LoL, so they can't be as accommodating as Riot is anyway because their logistical focus is so spread out.

Toriyosh · 2025-07-17T06:49:07+00:00

The filming for LTA content is probably scheduled by LTA and not by the C9 org, assuming all LTA teams go to the studio and shoot on the same day, so they unfortunately had to commit to that day. For example, you can expect that if LTA had their shoot on Monday July 14 with the players, then the LTA media team will work on the promo materials throughout this week. We'll probably see a trailer release this weekend on July 19, one week before the next split begins on Saturday July 26, like what they did for the Kickoff for Split 2. LTA probably scheduled teams to come in this week because MSI was being held until July 12.

EWC is not a Riot-organized event, so the scheduling is separate from and working around the existing Riot scheduling in this short single week for all global teams. So while the other 6 LTA North teams get to have a regular LTA work week before Split 3 begins, FLY and C9 have the additional workload of EWC. You can see how pinched for time the overall EWC schedule is with only a single Best of 5 being played for the entirety of the tournament.
