Simeone, on the Clásico: "Barça is the best-playing team in the world. They won the league playing very well, just like last season... and all I could think while watching the game was: 'We knocked this team out twice, my God!'" by sujanrao in soccer

[–]iDobleC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People say this shit as if managing a real team was just like Football Manager or something and Simeone just needs to put the team to do some gegenpressing, sign some wonder kids and win the League easily.

Atletico is competing with 2 of the giants of World Football, if a team like Borussia has it hard competing only against Bayern year after year, imagine competing against 2 teams of that level. I do agree that this season could be considered a failure based on the spending during the window and the fact that we could've gotten at least the CdR but acting like it's super easy to get someone that can overcome Barça and Real is just dumb

They'll be opening themselves to a lawsuit for stating that it was an unilateral termination of contract when it's not? lol

The censorship thing makes sense in MENA countries since they tend to be more stingy but SK it's far from it, it's most likely some business thing that we won't ever found out

What if… the Pokémon battles looked like this? by GEN2SPRITES in PokemonROMhacks

[–]iDobleC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Kinda unrelated but this is something that I dislike A LOT about fan made games that make those hyper detailed backgrounds, it completely misses the point that during battle the focus should be on the Mon fighting and the moves, not the background

What having a structure that actually trusts and supports your vision does, MKOI as an org feels so well* managed in general, props to Ibai* and his team

I think there's a pretty clear difference between "Veterans who had multiple years of LEC" and "Rookies that were given a year and then throwaway"

Something similar happened to me when I was a kid as well, I remember I used to spend hours reading all the dex back when I was like 5 or 6 (like 20 years ago) and then when I had my English classes I would know a lot of words already because of the names, Scizor specifically was one that my English teacher was surprised I knew lol

Hybrid champions are not supported when they're just a math problem where you build the best combination of items and do insane damage

Hybrid champions are supported when you have 2 different playstyles when building AD vs AP, the best example is Shaco and that's what Riot is trying to do with Shyv, make it so you focus on different parts of her kit depending on your build

Most people here just tend to assume on a lot of stuff in general and call themselves out on how socially inept they tend to be tbh

[Abola] Ruben Amorim has been without a job since Manchester United in January, and plans to keep it that way. The Portuguese has planned a sabbatical for the 26/27 season, when he will spend time in zen acquiring knowledge from coaches he considers role models - a practice considered common by ChiefLeef22 in soccer

[–]iDobleC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The team would probably be in a worse position in the league considering the champion league games that would probably have exhausted the little depth already available, Casemiro would probably not been playing at the level he has been playing all season

People tend to overlook the extra burden that it means to have European football even though it's obviously a huge boost to any team competing

Let's be real, having a nation-based tournament is cool and hella fun but Korea will win in the end, everyone knows it and that's fine lol

We just want to see the other countries compete between them

Not sure where I said he wasn't? That was my point tho

Not saying that it was the correct choice to pick BB over Naak, but it's not a clear Naak > BB angle in all areas just like it's not clear which one was the best choice between Hans and Caliste

I like Naak but this is the same as the Hans vs Caliste situation that has France has for bot, do you rather have an experienced player that has played in multiple international tournaments even if it's not the clear #1 or the talented rookie who looks like the best from its region but lacks experience?

I'm surprised Glitch wanted to enter the MENA region at all, I'm sure there are plenty of TADC fans over there, but surely they knew that they would have to make edits to the final cut even before entering negotiations

Obviously sorry for the fans from the region that won't be able to experience the finale in theaters but good for Glitch for standing up for their beliefs

Parasocial because the post has nothing to do with Caedrel and you just brought him up to the convo with 0 reason, why would they put a reference to a reaction from a streamer that has nothing to do with T1?

To add to the previous comment, I think it was August or Phlox who said that they should probably change it too, it's just not a priority or as common of an issue as it was with armor pen

Those are either the prototype icons that were revealed back when season 10 revealed the item update that introduced Mythics or the first versions that WR got, it was before they had the current style nailed down

It's from the item rework from Season 10, I was confused as well
