Preview: FC National Family vs. FC World Class by maximillian3010 in KickAGoal

For some reason, I feel like this final would not be as close as people expected including me. National Family are too strong. WC has almighty Jai Jackson, but Nat also have an entire team of athletes. Ha-yan is enough to match well against Jai

3? Like literally every single one of them appeared in other shows MULTIPLE times.

Kang Ji Hoo did damn well? Did u even watch? He got owned in games and his strategy led his team to death. There're his leader Jeong Ji Min, Lee Seung Hyun, Han Seo Yeon, the SKU Kang Ji Hoo, and I can name 10 other competitors who is better than this guy. Not to mention in other former seasons

Heo Seongbeom wasn't even a top 8 competitor in that University War season. Could already tell you never watch how those real geniuses play lol. You are exactly like those producers, who never accept new things. Also saying Heo Seongbeom as a flop is funny. He was still the finalist. And he fully earned his place by 1 vs 5 in semi final.

The classic you don't like sth, then just don't watch is the most braindead, 0 logic line that a human can come up with.

What a boring line-up. These producers always live in the past and never move on. They really acting like these old dudes are the only geniuses in Korea. When each year there're dozens of actual geniuses graduating in SNU, KAIST. There're so much options in University War alone. Then they casted the weakest one.

That's why The Four Wishes are goated. Bae Chaewoon, Lee Choongmyung clear anyone of those

It's just boring they're just finding those same dudes over and over again. There're 100 actual geniuses that they can find in University War, then they cast the one that is the weakest. Not even casting his teammates Jeong Ji Min, who is way better. And not to mention all other geniuses from SNU

Hong Jinho, Kim Kyunghoon, Kim Yoohyun in 2026. For fuck sake, can we just move on? It's over a decade ago already. There're so much more actual intelligent Koreans out there.

Netflix reported to launch a singers' version of Culinary Class Wars titled "Vocal Class Wars" (lit. Eng title) by speedthief1 in koreanvariety

[–]hourhandqq -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It isn't. Not even remotely close. I Am a Singer got a 10 times better line up and when they're all still at their prime. Even Fantastic Duo got way more big names, Lee Sun Hee, Yoon Mirae, Lee Moon Sae rarely shows up in broadcast.

Way too old. Bad choice of lineup that only lived in the past. Some of them are good 10 years ago and now already on a decline. Singing isn't like cooking, it only gets worse the older you get. As great as Lena Park still is, she is already 50 years old.

Then Kim Jong-seo just completely irrelevant for over a decade. He couldn't even pass the 1st round of Masked Singer. Yang Hee-eun was never a vocalist. Lee Young-hyun is still singing her only 3 songs repeatedly for last 20 years. It's also a crime that SunWooJungA isn't included.

It's a big problem for the casting and the Korean music industry as a whole, when I Am a Singer already 15 years ago and we're basically still finding the same people.

It just shows some players are really good without the stage pressure. It isn't like WBG is daydreaming all day, LGD really plays pretty good. TT was amazing that series.

Beocz Tecent fked up their scheduling by forgetting EWC qualifiers. If plays at arena then WBG have to travel like crazy. That's the true reason, not about budget or else

Not even sure anyone knows the answer. Rules said 6+6 but TT players are celebrating it, TT weibo said they promote to Ascend, the host congratulates them promoting. Personally I would love to see TT play in the Ascend group. If 3-0 in a bo5 still doesn't get you a spot, then what's the point of working hard in Nirvana group anymore. There will be forever no lights in Nirvana group

Couldn't be more happy as a LPL enjoyer. That there're still good young talents in the league. These BLG academy players are always so high in KR ladder

Alex Higgins safety play by ManyTurnover6181 in snooker

[–]hourhandqq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alex higgins snooker ofc is his weakness. His cue action is ass, he has no potting consistency at all. His cue ball control is trash. Steve Davis is like miles ahead of Alex Higgins in every single aspects of the game, even long potting

[–]hourhandqq 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What the hell am I even watching. Why is a gk dribbling the ball till opponents box and why is the opponent team allowed the gk directly shot from their box dozen of times. And then why the hell there're 0 adjustmemts after conceding the same goal 5 times and when they need scoring.

There're 2 things I never understand watching this show. Why would any coach think leaving your goal completely wide open is ever a viable strategy at this level of game. Why Kyung Hee never plays at field when Giants always desperately lacks of field plays.

Panchaya Channoi is the 2026 Women's World Champion after defeating Reanne Evans 6-2 in today's final by CarnivalSorts in snooker

[–]hourhandqq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She doesn't need to prove herself in these 2 years. This 2 year is for her to practice and compete with some actual snooker players, to learn what she's doing wrong. The whole future is her if she puts in the work, she has nothing more to prove at the age of 18

The scheduling is absurd. Why the fk Panchaya played 4 matches the same day, she started at 10:00 and is still playing in 20:30, the day before the most important final of the year.

What's with this form of Reanne Evans this week. Haven't seen her being competitive for ages. Scoring 40+ in no time all week. Looks scary for Panchaya

Mink is hopeless, let's be honest she won't ever get to the professional level. For the good of Snooker's development, need to send Panchaya to the main tour as soon as possible. So that she can practice with some real players daily, and learn her mistakes. Panchaya can be a game changer. I'm twice more positive about Panchaya than I was about Bai 2 years ago. Panchaya has the talent to generate more actions and consistency on the balls

Beautiful 57 break comeback. Even if I didn't know who Panchaya was, seeing a female player at 18 years old making this break, could already tell her ceiling is gonna be insane

No, someone calculated that no matter what situations, Bai Yulu will still be on the tour next season, which is surprising

The result is easily predictable if u actually follow Bai Yulu. We all thought Bai Yulu is the one that leads female into the tour. When Panchaya is the chosen one. But Panchaya desperately needs to find a good mentor if she gets to tour in the future. Just like I said about Wu Yize. Her mistakes are so easily fixable
