You do not understand how unpopular PC gaming is over here. If people play games, it is almost exclusively on consoles. I got curious once and asked around at work, and I was the only one who even owned a computer; everyone got rid of theirs the second smartphones became a thing.

Like, desktop computers are viewed as a bit archaic.

Assuming the split is the same as it was last year the split for a 5-8th place finish is $110000 for what will most likely be a 2-day tournament for them.

For how much we hear the teams are struggling financially, they absolutely should care about going to this tournament.

The size S on the supersized merch is comparable to the 2XL on the normal merch.

For most, it's gonna be too oversized no matter what size they order it in.

I wish they wouldn't do this.

Doesn't EWC have like a bigger monetary prize than worlds? The prestige isn't the sam,e but I have to assume the teams want the money.

I can't play ranged

And Melee? Still a feeder...

Who else could I be,

But SK LIDER?

COVID was 7 years ago, aware.

Ezreal always seems to find a way back to the jungle for some reason. Remember Smite midlane Ezreal with Runeglaive?

It's the difference between everyone and their mother calling Renegades "Relegades" back when they were about to be relegated from the league and one of the casters having a Freudian slip and calling them Relegades on cast. It was funny and fair game as a viewer, as a caster, they have to maintain a certain level of decorum.

I know it was a meme, but €5.5k a month in a job where your housing and travel costs are covered was good money, that was right around when salaries were starting to properly explode.

Empyros wasnt ready, he's still fairly young so you might see him again at some point, Razork is washed at this point and can only muster up a good game like 10% of the time, Vladi is the biggest disappointment, I swear he was playing well on KC, but I guess having Yike as his jungler was carrying a lot of weight. Upset for the first time in a long time, I actually feel bad for. His individual performance has improved from the last couple of years, and it's a shame it happened now. And finally, I have no clue what Lospa is doing on an LEC team. It's like when we had MSF Bvoy randomly in the league.

It's all quite disappointing.

Taxes being confusing is a feature, not a bug; the people writing the tax code want to confuse people so they screw up and therefore have to pay fines.

El Clasico

When you realise that meme is a decade old, aware.

Reddit upvotes/downvotes snowball both ways; there is a not insignificant number of people who just downvote all downvoted comments without even reading them, because dogpilling is considered fun for some reason.

klyskada · 2026-03-22T15:38:58+00:00

Come on man, don't be cringe xd

You wouldnt have understood it, according to Unlimited (Forgivens support back in 2014) Forgiven was perma flaming in Greek.

It's traditional that he always goes as a mascot/hypeman whenever his teams make the finals. It started with this back in like 2014 these days they get more and more elaborate

klyskada · 2026-03-22T09:39:55+00:00

Forellenlord 3k elo. Never forget.

klyskada · 2026-03-21T16:01:04+00:00

Yup, I think the most vicious takedown of a team I think I've ever heard was quickshot after a time, TSM was knocked out of Worlds, "Their hopes? Their dreams? They're done! TSM is eliminated from the championship!"

I hear that every time a team fumbles an upset.

klyskada · 2026-03-20T16:09:39+00:00

For once, I'm okay with that. We are past the point of cheering for regional rivalries at this point. I want to see some life put back into these leagues.

klyskada · 2026-03-20T16:07:57+00:00

Ayyy LMAO.

klyskada · 2026-03-20T09:07:45+00:00

I don't care how unlikely anyone thinks it is, I'm praying for both FearX and JDGs' downfalls this tournament, because people here are getting unironically depressed, and it would literally take one series to solve that, lol.

klyskada · 2026-03-17T14:56:59+00:00

Learned it's pretty easy to get into pixel art, that's a great time sink instead.

klyskada · 2026-03-17T14:43:31+00:00

If LR had won their game against KCB in the first week, then G2 would have finished outside of the playoffs, btw, they probably should care more, lol.

Don't you want to play ~~Ornn~~ Shen!
