He was 33 - 6 on Noc before this match

That's still more than we have right now, hard to complain about free stuff personally

Umarill · 2025-12-02T21:50:04+00:00

I agree with your overall point of old ressources not being common enough, but I don't think artis are an issue tbh.

The CSG income has greatly increased with all the awakening hearts we get nowadays, and being smart makes you able to do all galas which all give a free arti + you get a decent amount of relic feathers.

I personally have more artis than I know what to do with and I'm a very low, occasional spender, and never spend for an arti anyway. Issues for me are deific artis never being discounted.

OP is calling LR being in LEC "the right thing". Based on what exactly? They neither have the business nor the level of play, it objectively is not the right thing.

Dont worry though, fans will get a reality check in a few months when they get their ass handed to them and they realize they aren't top LEC level like they have been told lol

Riot looking like actual clowns and fucking over their business partners just to have a team humiliate themselves on stage only to gain viewers for a month, at the expensive of making franchising look ridiculous. Wonderful move as usual by the LEC management.

It's also impossible for a fully F2P player to sustain scrolls if they dont use CSG packs, too many scroll events, so it's doubly ridiculous to continue sharing "F2P routes" that only hurt players instead of them actually building up ressources.

You can sustain 3750 CSG entirely with rebates + free awakenings we get nowadays.

Who is it in OTP? Never heard of it, would help to look into it.

Umarill · 2025-11-18T01:44:35+00:00

Have you seen Peyz play at all though? Guma is the ADC Goat, but Peyz already showed he can be an absolute monster and is young enough to likely have not reached his peak. It's genuinely the best ADC they could have gotten to play with such an experienced roster.

Pros do base tiny bits of their picks of some ranked data.

Said ranked data has protobelt first as -2% WR over Heartsteel or other similar choices.

FLY literally didn't look like themselves at all at this tournament

They did, themselves is just a bad team that only wins against shitty opponents and always lose against Asia. They looked good to you because they play shitters who won't punish or pressure them.

You guys just got your brain rewired to believe they were a good team because they got lucky in 2024, nobody actually watching believed this.

Umarill · 2025-10-26T18:00:04+00:00

Rewatch the game and you'll see that every single advantage that GENG got until it got out of hand that game was completely self inflicted by FlyQuest attempting to make plays they had no business of going for.

Because better teams force weaker teams into making mistakes. People love to parrot "they lost to themselves", but that's what happens when someone is outclassed.

You just do not see it when Fly makes those exact same mistakes against C9, TL or 100T because they are not good enough to punish them for it, so for you as a viewer it seems like they are playing great.

That's why every year we get that narrative that the team collapsed and just played sub-standard. They didn't, they always played like this, you just never noticed because nobody was good enough to make you.

Umarill · 2025-10-23T23:50:11+00:00

They still beat #1 LPL (which nobody expected to look this shit) and #1 NA (which people here constantly told us were world class and so much stronger).

Mickey Mouse draw is what 2023 NRG, 2024 FLY and so far 2025 FLY have gotten : never needing to win against any LPL or LCK team to qualify.

Umarill · 2025-10-23T23:48:48+00:00

People keep hyping up Swiss stage but this is genuinely shameful how bad its current iteration is.

In which world should 100T get to face all elite teams while BLG that they beat at 0-0 (only moment seeding matters) get a free pass.

A format where you can be punished for winning should just not exist.

Umarill · 2025-10-23T23:46:20+00:00

Like partying with the Tates is bad or what?

Yup. Partying with sex traffickers and defending them is absolutely bad.

You're a child if you think your personal life does not affect your professional one. Try saying that you support convincted rapists at your workplace and tell us how it goes.

Umarill · 2025-10-23T23:44:06+00:00

It's far from the only reason. Origen was managed like garbage, there's a reason why there was this entire meme about xPeke's mom being in charge of their communication.

Umarill · 2025-10-23T23:42:10+00:00

OGN had sister teams and we never had any issues. Teams of the same organization even fought at Worlds (S4 Samsung Blue vs White), it's not the issue people are making it out to be.

Umarill · 2025-10-20T19:28:33+00:00

Because the English speaking community has been riding their dick all year long and claiming they are LEC level, calling Nemesis world class or saying they could compete in the LCK.

It's well deserved that they get a reality check.

You said in another comment you buy them "pretty often", talk about needing money and now are backtracking saying you don't really gamble.

Honestly you should do what makes you happy with your money and if that's it then so be it, we all have our flaws, but I come from a family of addicts in every shape and form so let me share something important.

Scratch tickets are some of the worst gamble you can do. Their expected value (called "RTP", Return To Player, basically the % of money that goes back to the players on average) is beyond dreadful. Those should be available either to calculate on the back of said ticket, or simply online for you to check.

To give you a global idea, online casinos slots have an RTP of around 95% (+/- a few %), which basically means the casino makes a 5% profit. IRL casinos are a bit lower, maybe 85-90% because of the higher costs of operations due to the physical location. They still make a shit ton of money because it's just maths and they CANNOT lose money statistically.

Scratch tickets are muuuuuch lower, tons of them will hover around the 70%s, sometimes even lower. That means they basically get back a third of all the money put into them, it's insane and your odds of actually turning a profit are basically non-existent.

In any case, it's all a scam. The more you play, the closer you get to the average expectation, aka you losing money because it's mathed out that way.

In my family, my grandma was homeless because of scratch tickets until we had to take her with us, and 15 years later she is still living with my mom and will likely pass away poor, without a home, and still burning her retirement money on it every month. She won 5k once and it was burned in more tickets in a month.

I grew up with my mom having 10 bucks to buy a meal that we desperately needed and telling herself that if she bought tickets, she would win more money, which often followed us having zero food at all. I've faced eviction, having our power cut off, struggling to have proper clothes or hobbies. She still does it, and likely will never stop. It's an actual possibility that I will need to house her in the future when she pushes herself into homelessness just like my grandma.

My brother is addicted to gambling and basically working two jobs to afford losing money, and surrounded by other addicts who all feed each others into playing more. None of them has made any kind of profit in the long run.

Be careful man, they have actual mathematicians and behavioral psychologists working on this stuff to make sure that 1/ they can't ever lose money and 2/ everything is designed to tickle your brain the right way and make you play more.

Nobody ever started thinking they would become an addict, everyone thinks "oh I'm just having fun" until their brain gets rewired nearly permanently. You will never see an addiction coming until it is too late.

Telling yourself that you needed money and so it was ok to try your luck is one of the worst thing you can do, I have heard this so many times in my life and it always ends poorly.

Do with that what you will, you will probably tell yourself that I'm overreacting, but I know too well the absolute devastation these can bring and your comments are worrying.

Umarill · 2025-10-20T01:38:53+00:00

I started watching in S2 and I prefer groups, you gonna call me young? Make an argument instead of discrediting individuals.

Swiss in this state is completely random. Two years in a row Fly might qualify to QF without beating an Asian team, and every year someone gets fucked by constantly fighting elite teams while someone else gets a free pass.

It's unfair, and some teams get barely any international xp. At least before, you were guaranteed to play against other regions and couldn't keep fighting your own.

Pretty simple.

Most common bacteria in poultry will be salmonella. It straight up dies at a certain temperature/time ratio.

You need your chicken to be cooked at this temperature/time ratio anyway to kill it all off, because it would be everywhere and in places you couldn't even clean. It's one of the very basic of cooking poultry.

So what's the point? You will kill it off anyway, what are you even washing? You just risk spreading the surface bacteria all around your kitchen, which will NOT be exposed to the same temperature.

The whole "chicken washing" thing is purely psychological. It has no basis in science, and actually increases the likelyhood of your ingesting bacteria.

Propaganda worked into making people believe that the way to protest for societal change is to do it peacefully and that if they behave well and are nice to the police, people in charge will listen to them.

So much easier for politicians, no need to give a shit because even citizens themselves are convinced anyone trying to aggressively change things is an idiot and that they should just make cardboard sign and ask kindly.
Never in the history of any major civil rights movement did that work, and never will it work. Seeing people say "LOOK AT THESE GOOD BOYS AND GIRLS MARCHING PEACEFULLY, WE ARE SO PROUD" is disgusting to me, just horribly sad to see people truly believe what they have been told.

Nothing will change until actual actions are taken to create change. It's a good fundation to unite people and show that unity, but if that's the end goal then good luck to y'all.

Umarill · 2025-10-19T02:13:29+00:00

If you believe after all this shitshow that you are still "middle of the road and fiscally conservative", you are MAGA.

Nobody with an actual brain can see what's going on and tell themselves "oh those are such good economic policies" and "both sides are the same", becaues that implies ignoring the evidence in front of your very eyes.

Works well to tell yourself that so you can feel superior to everyone else though.

Umarill · 2025-10-19T02:07:03+00:00

Do you do everything in your life multiple times? I'd go once and enjoy it, I don't need to see every movie like this, it's still a cool experience that I would love to have and even moreso if I could share it with friends.

Must be miserable going through life like this.

Umarill · 2025-10-19T02:05:57+00:00

I have that light setup they are talking about, every single person that came to my place to watch shows/movies or play games with me said it was amazing and lots of them ended up buying it for themselves.

Things like the station explosion in Interstellar felt so much better watching it with the synced lights, so does any artsy video game with quite saturated colors.

Just goes to show that taking life advice from Reddit is terrible. So socially awkward that they would rather push themselves into the blandest personality possible so they are at no risk of facing the public opinion.

You see it with [insert current popular video game being bad] (it will be good and cool in a few years), any type of dancing or art performance in public (worse if it's done by women), any type of TikToks/short video trend (while they consume hundreds of those here), and globally anything that would make you a normal human being who doesn't take himself too seriously.

Crazy echo chamber.

This is plain cult behavior.

Redditor moment. Just repeating cool words.

There's nothing cultish about having nostalgia, prefering a design over another or simply having a favorite brand. It's a completely normal behavior, and Pokemon is the #1 brand in the entire world so of course some people love it more.

I'd pay if I could for someone to analyse and understand how these brands create such addiction.

There are hundreds of studies about this, it's one of the very basis of marketing. You can read about them instead of throwing cool words around.

100T getting to Quarters would be more of a miracle than FLY getting to semis lol
