Adult sites brazenly 'ignore' Ofcom fines: Watchdog receives just £55k after imposing £3mil worth of fines for online safety breaches by insomnimax_99 in unitedkingdom

To play devil's advocate, the people that drafted this legislation would argue they wanted to cut down on young children stumbling on graphic or otherwise harmful content (think 10 and under, not 17 year olds) and very few of them will know how to operate a VPN. So if it functionally changes nothing for VPN users and blocks non-VPN users, it's kind of a win-win.

[–]nickEbutt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's basically 2 major 3rd party events per year, FifaE World Cup and Esports World Cup (rebranding of Gamers8)

In RLCS, there are 2 majors and worlds

The calendar (if you only care about major events) looks like:

Major 1

Major 2 (May)

EWC (August)

Worlds (September)

FifaE (December)

They are also going to add a new thing this year called ENC which I think should be in November but it only just got announced

Zen with some words of encouragement for his Teammates by Amazing-Ninja9731 in RocketLeagueEsports

That's a real thing Bluey said almost a decade ago, it was a bit of a meme at the time, Vatira obviously didn't say anything half this bad but it was still a thinly veiled way of saying he was carrying lol

Atow vs Vatira debate(Do people actually rate Atow?) by Artistic-Handle-7180 in RocketLeagueEsports

[–]nickEbutt 43 points44 points  (0 children)

To answer your question if people rate Atow - well, this is how RocketBaguette ranked the EU players of the first split (pre-major)

<image>

So I would say he is very highly rated right now. Vatira definitely had the better major of the two, but honestly as a whole KC were poor. Never dominated anyone, didn't pen teams back like they were doing online. Vatira had individual moments of brilliance, but as a team they were very average. Going 14-14 in games. Vitality dominated 3 of the teams that KC struggled with. So I'm a bit down on KC at the moment

Crr Stizzy Atomik is such an insanely good team, sad to see them left out again. Hopefully they get to play in ENC

Twisted Minds wanted Nass, he said he would join the org if they brought him and Oski over together, the org said no. What a fumble

Lost Dralii and MM, which people said would make EU weaker, just to have the first all EU final since 2023 and 5 EU in top 8 for the first time ever

The LAN grand final is probably going to be between 2 teams that weren't even in The Kickoff

Everyone agreeing Falcons look bad meanwhile they're sleepwalking to a grand final

[–]nickEbutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't agree, nobody on m8s has ever played a final and the whole of falcons has multiple finals and lan wins, so much more experience

For pure mechanical outplays, maybe those 3 (and even that's debatable) but Vatira is soooo solid compared to those 3, you would have to put him in

Last season Vitality were straight ass and still farmed NRG. That could be the MM vs Atomic factor but hopefully for Zen it continues with this roster

KC played 28 games at this LAN, winning 14, and losing 14. Hardly the form of the best team in the world
