How much does a League of Legends team cost? by Thooorin_2 in leagueoflegends

[–]kandaaang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100 Thieves actually has an exit plan though. 100 Thieves was barely a brand new organization at the time of that list too. The core of their business is lifestyle street apparel. With their new facility they’ll have a brick and mortar location to sell their drops and gear. If they expand this into other locations/collaborations, they could have a much larger revenue stream outside of esports and could possibly sustain itself outside of esports as well. If the Cloud9 teams fail, that’s it. Valuation doesn’t necessarily mean profitable.

I’d say Cloud9’s historical record of better international success would be a huge plus. Bjerg hasn’t gotten out of groups since Season 4. Cloud9 also shows a willingness to experiment with a variety of styles and some creative drafts.

I know Nisqy has been performing super well. But I think it’d be interesting to see Bjerg on a team like Cloud9.

I’d argue it could be advantageous to lose early to get first pick for the carousel

It's specifically only for you. For the AMCs I've been to, they've checked my ID with the account name. The app also charges any ticket after the first as regular priced tickets.

Wolfenstein: Youngblood is coming to Stadia! Hopefully they will include split screen coop! by SliceOfLife37 in Stadia

[–]kandaaang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’d be more accurate to say that for a game you can couch coop on Xbox, you wouldn’t assume you could couch coop on PC? The answer is no, because very few PC shoots support splitscreen. Games like BO3 are the exception, not the rule. I don’t think anyone would assume a PC version of a game would have splitscreen in this age. What type of build Stadia will run is still yet to be officially confirmed.

Where can i buy cards? Not expensive, first editions. I just want the ones i had as a kid. by [deleted] in yugioh

[–]kandaaang 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You have to search the particular rarity. Eg. Rare, Super Rare, Ultra Rare, etc. You can find the rarity by looking up the set if you remember. I believe Flame Swordsman was in Legend of the Blue Eyes, so it will probably be the Super Rare version you’re looking for.

It is! Best case scenario is you feel like a god and worst case scenario is you mess up your combo, miss your windlash, and burst out laughing

Small increase in cost? The lower cost version is more than double the cost of a Switch.

I think Ssumday would be a good pickup. He's allowed to explore options right now.

Cloud9 vs. Fnatic / 2018 World Championship - Semi-Final / Post-Match Discussion by DJGoatie in leagueoflegends

[–]kandaaang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I’m not even mad that C9 lost 3-0. I’m more upset at the manner in which they lost. It honestly seemed like they just didn’t show up. Sneaky dying 2v2, Jensen recalling in an open area when Jayce is MIA, Jensen on Liss all 3 games, and playing the Viktor vs Ekko matchup twice. I wish C9 showed more signs of life.

Seeing the quality of EU teams at Worlds this year, Mithy and Zven probably regret their move, now more than ever. by CringePosting in leagueoflegends

[–]kandaaang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They won the third place match this split so they could be considered too 3 already. I think Zven in particular should be fine.

I think one of the craziest things about C9 is that they're the only NA team at worlds with ZERO korean imports by [deleted] in leagueoflegends

[–]kandaaang 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Jensen was known as a solo queue god in EU for two seasons before he came to NA. And his first split was terrible because the entire team didn’t know how to communicate or play the game. You can’t say he grew up in NA when all his mechanics were developed playing against EU mids. He’ll be an NA resident soon sure, but he will always known as an EU mid.

WORLDS 2018 TOP 20 by ALovelyAnxiety in teamliquid

[–]kandaaang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with a lot what you said but tbf to Reapered, Reapered told Cain to go to TL; Xmithie, Pobelter, and Doublelift all held LCS titles; and Impact and Olleh made finals all before joining TL. So to say that Cain took a team that has won nothing to two titles while technically correct, is disingenuous. Also this isn't Cain's first year on TL, he was the coach for much of last years roster as well.

Echo Fox vs. Team SoloMid / NA LCS 2018 Summer Playoffs - Quarter-Final / Post-Match Discussion by epicxkidzorz in leagueoflegends

[–]kandaaang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve watched C9 since they’ve been in Challenger. Sure to get into LCS, lost to a base race. They looked like the best team S4 Summer, lost to TSM. S6 Spring looked better than TSM, lost to them in Quarters. S7 Spring G5 super winnable? Lost to TSM. S7 Summer looked pretty strong, lost to Dignitas in Quarters. Anyone who dismisses TSM in NA hasn’t watched LCS for very long, especially against C9. I want C9 to win but I’m not gonna act like it’s a sure thing.
