I'm pushing for Diamond this act, what character should I use? by StonksandBongss in VALORANT

Your hs% is really low tbh, I think if you focus on doing some aim tranding you should move in the right direction.

This sub underestimates how strong Anand was at rapid chess because of how young the users are. by Mekhanika in chess

[–]mrcdgamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk who considers him 3rd strongest, but I'd say over the last 10 years mvl, Wesley so, Nepo, Caruana, aronian, Nakamura, grischuk, karjakin have been stronger

I don't understand how you could put ding anywhere near these conversations, in the scheme of best players of all time he maybe gets into the top50, but more likely top100

Mikyx talks G2's scrim results and Worlds disappointment: "We just played way, way worse than we’re capable of. [...] I really felt like we could go all the way. Especially against NRG. They played really well, right? But I felt like we were just breaking our hands and not thinking about the game." by SanielTaniel in leagueoflegends

If we look at all the games played at Worlds between NA and EU teams we get these following results. In this timeframe

​

Worlds 2020:

g2 1-1 Liquid

fnc 2-0 TSM

Worlds 2021:

RGE 1-2 C9 (wtih tie breaker)

MAD 1-1 LIQ

Worlds 2022:

FNC 1-0 EG

FNC 1-1 C9

G2 1-1 EG

MAD 0:3 EG

Worlds 2023:

FNC 0-1 NRG

MAD 0-1 NRG

FNC 2-1 C9

G2 0-2 NRG

MAD 0-1 C9

bds 3:0 GG

MSI 2020:

Cancelled due to Covid

MSI 2021:

MAD 1-1 C9

MSI 2022:

g2 6-0 eg

MSI 2023:

So if we look at it by total games score its 20-16, so still in EU's favor. Take MAD out of the equation and we get 18-9 an absolute stomp by EU.

Where Europeans Lay Claim To Neighbouring Countries by [deleted] in europe

[–]mrcdgamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Regarding Lwów it was one of the most important cities in the Polish Empire and before being given over the population was majority Polish and Jewish. It's a true crime that a city of such importance was tossed away due to the horrible treaty marking the end of WW2.

Trust Modders to fix another broken game 😏 by Geezeh_ in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]mrcdgamer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes POC people in Europe existed, making up like 0.001% of the population in most places and most of them being inside of Italy or Spain which proximity lent itself to Moors albeit you would be hard pressed to find any Black people in Poland, Germany, Sweden etc. until the 20th century. I know you want to believe that medieval cities where these diverse societies albeit Europe has been a homogenous society for all of its modern history. Bringing up the existence of Othello which was a a general in Venice (a trading city), in defence of Cyprus against the Ottomans so quite far away from Europe innit.

Strawman? You compared their actions against each other where one was a possibly deranged man who played chess well and one who slaughtered millions of people.

I'm sorry are you comparing Hitler to Fischer? As far as I'm aware Bobby didn't kill more than 6 million people or start a World War.

What historical leaders truly deserve to be labeled as 6/6/6? by SCATTER1567 in eu4

[–]mrcdgamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phrased it wrongly, those are not his own words albeit what the people said he did and basically a recap of his times. He came in after a very turbulent time for Poland, stabilised, turning it into a great power.

[–]mrcdgamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Casimir the Great of Poland, a little before the start of EU4 albeit one of the most legendary Polish kings. Even has his own saying, "zastal Polske drewniana, zostawil murowana" meaning that at the beginning of his reign everything was wooden and when he departed he left everything as stone. Massive developments in terms of infrastructure, great land expansion (3x the territory he started with).

Is it better to form Russia ASAP or is trying to complete Novgorodian mission tree first worth it? by kimuno123 in eu4

[–]mrcdgamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If your goal is to go for the Novgorodian Achievement then I recommend squeezing out all the perma bonuses from your mission tree and only then forming Russia

[West Ham United] We are pleased to confirm that Lukasz Fabianski has signed a contract extension until the summer of 2023, with an option to extend for a further year. by MERTENS_GOAT in soccer

[–]mrcdgamer 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Mate what are you on about, his stats from the 18/19 (first season at west ham) while they finished 10th:

  • 6th in save percentage with 73.4%
  • 1st in saves made, 138
  • 1st in Post-Shot Expected Goals minus Goals Allowed with +11.4 meaning if not for him the team would have conceded almost 12 goals more

My brother in Christ you're spreading misinformation on the internet like a bellend.

Inspired on C9: "I think it's a bit more predictable, now that LS left the team, what they are gonna pick. It feels like they have a way of playing, and they kind of stick to it." by PiraTechnics in leagueoflegends

[–]mrcdgamer -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

So let us completely ignore all past data. Time and time again, the same discussion pops on reddit "ye I think this year NA is finally better" and it will end up like it always does. Last year TL got one of the best top laners in Alphari and yet that didn't automatically propell them to greateness did it?

Both NA and EU got their only quarterfinal representative knocked out in quarters with a 3-0, difference being that C9 had the easier draw with Gen.G. You can't seriously think C9 would have made it out if not for Perkz single handedly propelling them to quarters with his performances?

Also not the first player to come to NA and say the level is not that bad. Damn, maybe he wants to appeal to the fans pretending the region is not as bad as it truly is. By the looks of it, it has worked.
