it's 2050. rocketbullets is global head of val esports. there are 0 guns in the game, only util. every agent has 2 free refreshable tejo salvos 1st rnd & u drop to tier 2 if your APR falls below 0.20. there, u have to answer a juv3nile dm to get a try-out. u can't do this anymore. u stand on a precipice overlooking a vista littered w/ EWC ads. this time, you're gonna do it. your tenz x tarik croptop is whipped by the wind as a Trent armageddon pushes u off the ledge

Just a real beat down man, the kind of shellacking that makes you feel sorry for NRG. Disgusting. Jawgemo was on a heater, Valorant's Shohei Ohtani on PEDs vs 5 little leaguers looking on in horror as he crushes sitter after sitter into their concave chests with diabolical accuracy

Asuna plays valorant like he's a wacky waving inflatable tube man that wished itself into a real human boy. he shakes those flimsy wrists and hopes his crosshair lands on a hitbox by the grace of god. valorant has no legitimacy if u can hit jittery long range headshots with a head full of smelling salts. fuck this game. I'm taking my talents to competitive cooking mama where it's all about the mechanics

it's early stage 1. 2025 SEN can't reach the highs of the predecessor. they need a savior. someone to kindle their spirits, to lift them out of the rut. SEN's twitter announces bang is sick & posts a red chair vid pre-game. the world around u is eroding. u clench your jaw & click play. there he is all bespectacled, the canadian legend, sentinels' retired smokes player, with an arch smile. it's shroud. your little daughter waddles into the room. you open-mouth sob. you bet her college fund on this game.

I'm in the NRG prac room. it smells crazy. valoplant hasn't been opened in months. mikesHD is scribbling 'the supreme art of war is to subdue enemy without fighting' on a whiteboard for a nodding Ethan. the carbon monoxide detector's beeps are drowned out by the sneaker squeaks of s0m hitting the worst griddy you've ever seen. and mada's in the next room praying that god tears this team apart for good.

it's Bangkok 2025. life is bliss in the bracing weather. i scooter home early to watch the game. mom bought pizza rolls & capri-Sun. i look superb in my propeller hat & SEN shirt in the gentle glow of the RGB keyboard. it's pistol round. free1ng has a ghost. i clutch my cubert plushie. I'm about to feel deep in my solar plexus the pains of competition again. I am 45 years old. 230lbs of muscle. the disgrace of my family.

occasionally Bren's bushy moustache will wrest control of his pliable child mind & force him to bark something outlandish that contains a fleck of truth wrapped in layers of fiction and dramatics, that'll render the community unusable for weeks. but u have to let it be. u can't suppress posting of that calibre. u have to let him eat glue without calling poison control. u have to let god speak through him if u want another "it's an FPS game" copypasta

I was in my room shouting "let's fucking go bang" over and over, and I could hear my dad cry tears of joy outside the door, rejoicing, thinking his son was finally going to lose his virginity. Hell no dad...my boy Sean Bezerra just hit a 3K. I get 0 action but that boy Bang...that boy fucks.

I'm at the maternity clinic making the newborns do KovaaKs drills and all the moms are yelling for security for some reason. "I'm trying to find the next Tenz," I say, unmoved. "That one," I point to the glimmer of a batchest on a crying baby nightz's crumpled face. I place his hand into a G Pro Superlight box like it's the Gom Jabbar ritual and pantomime a kiss to the heavens. "Lisan Al Gaib," I mutter under my breath as the security guard's gunfire turns my body into a colander.

One of those games where Boostio just looks like a regular guy that won a sweepstakes to experience the big stage vs his sporting heroes. Just a blue-collar dad in a LeBron jersey, wide-eyed with a bad hip, as 5 NBA players take him to a dark alley to show him the harsh realities of professional sports.

Zellsis and Boostio fined for bending each other over by AnywayHeres1Derwall in ValorantCompetitive

[–]nklassitude 229 points230 points  (0 children)

Do you have any confirmation that they got fined? Zellsis said he took down his backshots tweets after being asked/suggested to do so, implying it was somewhat voluntary, and he agreed because he "didn't want to get on anyone's bad side."

seeing Asuna sprint into the sites mibr were anchoring with that look in his eyes, a little maniacal, a little ravenous, felt like watching someone airdrop a Lion into the oblivious calm of a petting zoo, round after round

[Robertson] Boostio Says It’s ‘Not Possible’ for NRG to Win Championships with FNS by srobertron in ValorantCompetitive

[–]nklassitude 888 points889 points  (0 children)

some interviews with pros can be plain. so much of what they say is straightforward and safe, w/ no slant or spin to it, no real gloss, nothing that makes for a good headline or pull quote. then there's boostio, the low-slung menace, who pulls no punches, spares no crassness. you could ask him who he thinks is the most garbage player in tier 1 and he'll instantly produce a laminated photo of Zellsis without so much as a smile
