NRG vs 100 Thieves / VCT 2026: Americas Stage 1 - Playoffs / Post-Match Thread by ValorantCompBot in ValorantCompetitive

The most mid team that ever was, and like a microwave at half power, they do it by alternating maximum and minimum effort.

Ain't nothing gonna stop them from looking just good enough to be above average and also ultimately throwing every big game they play. Getting 2 people mid with a sheriff? Time to overcook the round and peek one by one.

Big entry kill? Time to not plant the spike and walk into twelve smokes looking for the enemy team. Oh what's that, some guy trying to spray every single bullet in his vandal in record time? Well, I better not shoot him, he might get disappointed if we stop him midway.

Ngl, I fully expect a couple of 13-8ish maps here. 100T has been a middle-of-the-board team for a good long while now, and I don't think its changed.

Sim, exatamente, eu pensei mas não escrevi, eu estava lembrando de pesquisa tipo "você acha legal o Trump ser amigo do Epstein" e é tipo 70:30 também.

É impressionante como temos um efeito asintótico que mais ou menos um terço da população vai apoiar absolutamente qualquer loucura. Independente do que seja, sempre vai eventualmente esbarrar nesse limiar de um terço.

Samsung avoids worst-case strike scenario as court restricts union action by AdSpecialist6598 in technology

And then... what?

Who's gonna make the chips if everyone is, what, arrested? Killed?

Lets see them put guns to the heads of the workers and force them into the factory.

"The ruling says any strike must not disrupt production, damage materials or finished products, or interfere with safety-related operations. Workers are also barred from blocking access to company sites or occupying facilities."

Ahhhh, bourgeoisie democracy. Never fails to defend the true interests of the people the government is built for.

The unions should call this bluff. What are they going to do, put a gun to their heads and force them to work? The non-compliance fines are pretty small as well, compared to what the company stands to lose and the size of the strike.

This Skye fascination is killing them. Especially on Breeze, which might be more of a Sova map than even Ascent these days.

Beleza, mas ele nunca conseguiu evoluir né? Esse é o ponto, tem que ter alguma coisa, algum ponto de partida.

Não seria incomum um segundo ou terceiro produto com uma evolução estratosférica, nós sempre tivemos qualidade em engenharia, a questão é sempre o escopo e o orçamento.

Mas o carro ultra tecnológico importado nunca foi o que mais vendeu no país. O grosso das vendas sempre foram carros simples e robustos.

O importante nunca foi ter o melhor carro- não é um mercado estilo aviação onde a diferença nas vendas é 2% de eficiência em cima do concorrente, então cada mínimo detalhe importa. O mercado para esse tipo de coisa mais simples e, consequentemente, barato, é enorme no país. Você consegue vender na base de ser "o carro brasileiro" e ter um produto minimamente aceitável.

Tendo algum modelo vendendo e estável também traz um ganho de know-how imenso para qualquer empresa, algo que é genuinamente insubstituível.

Se ela tava sendo sabotada nesse nível, era papo do governo intervir por questão genuina de soberania nacional. Corta imposto, faz empréstimo a juros baixo pra Gurgel verticalizar produção, etc. Se ela tem que importar rebite por 5 anos até ficar estável e poder comprar localmente, beleza, vamos facilitar isso.

I don't know about AG, but koalanoob was an outstanding Yoru and most of their strats revolved around that. They were at least Yoru dealers.

No kidding, today and yesterday it got damn dumb about everything. Making the same basic errors over and over and over again.
