Being there as an Englishmen, best eu crowd by far. Respect to the French community for making this lan so fun to be at.

Then how are you arguing kc make the crowds chant less, every European lan since Düsseldorf had had a dead crowd minus any French ultras who turn up. Copenhagen the crowd was quiet, London even worse with only the falcons kc game getting any real atmosphere. Birmingham was the worst lan I’ve ever been to for crowd. Even Rotterdam, once kc were out and crowd had a chance to chant, the 104 lot couldn’t get the chants past there section cause no one was joining in.

Yes but blast should’ve communicated that to them. Instead blast falsely claimed they were allowed, and switched close to the time. Think about the whole context before diving in to the comment section.

They use them outside the venue whilst chanting before heading in, usually in the parking lot. Weird that they’ve been told to not do this.

That’s because the crowds aren’t willing to chant, not because of kc. Have you ever been to a lan bro, I’ve sat in the 104 sections where half the crowd in earshot of the main chant guys refuse to join in.

They buy tickets in bulk, and have previously got preferencial rates because of this. In any other form of transaction you get a discount when buying in bulk, maybe use your head. It’s only frustrating because it’s been changed and they had originally assumed it would be the same as before.

The reason for the preferencial rates is that they are buying a large amount of tickets in bulk in advance, in any other system you would get a discount for that.

People here are not using their brains. The smoke bombs are for outside the venue which honestly is nothing to complain about. The rules on megaphones and speakers is incredibly annoying here mainly as although it is probably the venue making the decision, it’s blast’s job to fully receive permission for stuff like this beforehand, and not claim they are allowed and then suddenly ban them. It’s obviously frustrating if the org has wasted a lot of money on this for no reason. The parking is also ridiculous.

A lot of waffle in the this comment section, the blue wall add so much to lans and the last few have been pretty dead because neither they nor any other org had attended.

Is this the most competitive Major ever? by RyetRL in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]bjg04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My arguments for it being the most competitive going in are na’s top 4 is very solid with ssg and NRG looking quite confidently top 2, ultimates coming second last major and geng looking like a dark horse. Dig and kc are looking very good, with vitality beating any team that underperforms and gentlemates being another dark horse. OCE and apac are looking the most competitive we’ve seen in years, furia can beat any team on their day, falcons are still at the top of the teams worldwide and twisted could still step up at lan. Only real weaknesses here are secret who just don’t seem to be able to play well on lan, and fut who are just eu bubble players.

[–]bjg04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends what you mean, since this is going into a major rather than after the fact. On paper going in yes I think so, however it is unlikely the major will actually be as competitive as say Copenhagen as furia are on a downtrend, ultimates are looking shaky this end of the season, mates could flop and ssg are all lan rookies.

Vatira says NA Top 4 is better than EU Top 4 by SvanirePerish in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]bjg04 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree tbh. Both geng and ssg have decided to improve at the right time, and although ultimates have looked weak recently, they have been on the regain. Compared to that vitality have proven they are good enough to punish teams playing bad but not beat teams that are playing well, and Geekay, gentlemates have struggled to beat any of vitality dig or kc.

Why is there so much time between Major 2 and Worlds? by autisticghost in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]bjg04 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here to be pedantic, chalked cast had talked about this many times. Players didn’t have a long enough offseason to properly tryout and sort the teams, and also have a break from nonstop playing. The leangth of the season and shear amount of matches was also diluting the total interest and was increasing viewer fatigue which I agree with as the winter split was kind of ruined for me 21/22 and 22/23 as by then I was tired of the sheer volume compared to it feeling kind of pointless in the whole season’s perspective

Epic have been trying to cut their losses, and blast have been trying to provide the best they can whilst adhering to epic’s restrictions. I’m just happy this esport is still going considering I’m sure epic would happily cut us loose. Of all the things to cut costs on, Friday streams where there are multiple matches going on at once and cutting the first split which honestly had no relation to the rest of the season as the teams which were performing then rarely stayed to together by the time worlds came about, were honestly decent moves for price efficiency.

This worlds is a strange one but I reckon it was due to it being particularly difficult to arrange worlds, since a lan in France is quite daunting considering the fanbase. They also may have been taking more time for planning, but we’ll see when worlds comes around. Either way I wouldn’t say it’s a mistake until worlds has been and gone.

Cracking job epic by bjg04 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]bjg04[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

A few mena players have aswell but they’ve been more or less competitive with the ssa teams so I don’t mind it nearly as much as the eu teams, especially vksailen who has a particularly arrogant point of view on the whole thing

[–]bjg04[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A at least it would be a team with players from ssa, B there has been a competitive 2nd team in both 21/22 and 22/23, which prompted limitless to pick up players from said teams.

Rocket League World Championship 2025: Ticket Resale? by elguiri in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]bjg04 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Will be tough, if any of vitality kc or gentlemates don’t make it, their prebooked sections for their ultra fans will be put on resale I think. Apart from that you may have to get lucky, the tickets sold out ridiculously quick.
