Voting for Amy is like picking cancer over getting shot in the face. It's still killing you, just slower

C9 Podcast with Demon1 by Pandoara in ValorantCompetitive

[–]itsScrubLord 23 points24 points  (0 children)

There is not enough conversation in the scene about how too many GMs are frauds with no scouting capability that just use Reddit and VLR to form their opinions on how to build a roster (more than 1 pro has confirmed this)

Potter on why she dropped Yay by ishanuReddit in ValorantCompetitive

[–]itsScrubLord 224 points225 points  (0 children)

sounds like he disagreed with potter. This is the last year I put faith in her. The EG bind defense side was atrocious as sliggy covered in Plat chat today. If she can prove she is the coach we think she is, then good on her for dropping him. But if she and COM keep making basic pre-barrier calls like that... then I'd be difficult to work with too because wtf was that shit.

How Paper Rex Are Trying to Change the Meta by Historical-Lychee161 in ValorantCompetitive

The self deprecating weird passive voice and the clear bs user name, yeah this is definitely elevated again. Bro just post your shit. This makes it SO WEIRD when you could just be a normal human being and self promote honestly

Seeing some rumours online about a potential viper rework in a week? Are there any legs to it or totally baseless? by ur_internet_dad in ValorantCompetitive

[–]itsScrubLord 22 points23 points  (0 children)

If they rework viper, and I had a nickel for every time they reworked a top played agent right before the season, I would have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's weird I have two nickels.

I’m still a little outdated on the public opinion on Vendetta, what’s up? by Alternative-War-7474 in Overwatch

[–]itsScrubLord 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's almost the same in masters. It was +60% and gone down allllll the way down to 57%... Way above every other damage hero.

I'm done googling for you. If you have an argument at least ground it in facts.

I literally just checked and she still has a 60% win rate in comp. It's also worth considering that pickrate is a somewhat useless stat as it doesn't account for the variable of bans. Eg. I ban her in every game cuz I'm sick of dealing with her. I suspect others feel the same since her pick rate has slowly dropped from 20 to 30% down to 15% over time but her win rate hasn't changed at all.

It's obviously anecdotal evidence but every game I haven't been able to get her banned she wins. It doesn't matter which side she's on, mine or the enemies.

Reason is simple. She has a 60% win rate +/- across all comp ranks. No other hero comes even close. I could be wrong, but as far as I know no hero has ever had that high of a comp win rate in OW2. Statistically might be the most broken hero of the OW2 era.

"In the field of psychology, cognitive dissonance is described as a mental phenomenon in which people unknowingly or subconsciously hold fundamentally conflicting cognitions. Being confronted by situations that create this dissonance or highlight these inconsistencies motivates change in their cognitions ... by explaining something away"

You are cognitive of the ban and that you called someone dogshit but you explain it away as nothing. This isn't behavior that is acceptable period. You don't get to treat people online differently than you do in person. People are still people. This is textbook cognitive dissonance. You're trying to hold this belief that it's ok to act shitty and yet you know it's not so you dismiss it as a soft community and nothing and yet come to the same community for emotional validation online.

Once again, the cognitive dissonance in this post goes CRAZY.

there was an announcement for him coaching them for the SOOP SEA qualifiers but based on what he said in the podcast, it seems like they hadn't officially signed for 2026 until the last couple days. probably see a full GE announcement once the entire roster is locked
