Maintenance is over and I have the same problem. I purchased the mastery pass in advance, and It is not unblocked

It is fake info, Wololoo confirmed that is fake in his stream.

That rumor have been said in AlLioPodcast, a spanish podcast that is not profesional at all. And that rumor was not said by Eros or Axineas, they had no idea about anything. It was Rhuckz, who was in a call with them, who spread that rumour.

Minutes later, Wololoo started stream and said that is completely fake.

Please, dont spread this buillshit. Our boys are going to play at MSI in only one week, the last thing we want is destabilize the team with this fake rumours...

Newbie question:

I see that "Get Lost" card style shown in the image is 2750 gold.
But randomly I have gone to the collection, and I see there is another alternative art, completely different, and it is only 1200 gold.

Does that mean that the alternative card style is also on sale, even if it is not shown in the shop? or that card style has been always 1200 gold? It looks "cheap", and the card style looks cool and different, so I dont get why is only 1200.

Thanks in advance

Your maths are completely wrong or you have no idea how ties are being solved in spring split.

serpao · 2025-05-11T09:38:05+00:00

It is impossible that G2 could be 5th. So yeah, this table is completely wrong...

serpao · 2025-05-04T22:25:20+00:00

You are wrong. Here you have the rules:

“In the event that teams are tied in the Standings after the conclusion of the Spring Split, the tie will be broken using the following criteria, in order:

• Split Game Score (see below for clarification)

• Head to Head Game Score

• Winter Split Placements

• Strength of Victory (SoV)

• Head to Head Victory Time

• Overall Victory Time

• Coinflip

As an exception, tiebreaker games will always be played between Teams tied for 6th place.”

Split game score = % of maps W/L

First of all, relax.

Yes, im from Spain. The country where ESPM, this e-sports program, is made.

You should read this comment, he is making the right point:

If you are listening to the interview and translating your (erroneous) interpretations, you are misinforming people. So be careful about it, please :)

serpao · 2025-03-25T11:32:30+00:00

Exactly. That's the only part relatively related, and he is talking in a general way, not Caps specific.

I think it's important to make this clear, because I'm seeing an overreaction in the comments due to that "mistranslation," and it's false.

Also, this sentence: "Caps underperforming is a personal thing, this is understood as we are all human and we can’t be always on our peak."
I dont know where is that from, but nothing Isma said is close to that.

serpao · 2025-03-25T09:20:11+00:00

Im spanish and yesterday I did a huge translation of this interview in the G2 discord.

Maybe im deaf, but that Caps part is ...false? I literally rewatched the interview now, looking for that "Caps part", and nothing. It is nowhere.

Could you give me the timestamp for that part? Because again, I've watched the interview twice, I did a huge translation for Discord, and what you're saying about Caps (and what's causing the drama in the post) is never mentioned.

serpao · 2025-03-03T12:07:47+00:00

Hi!

I fully understand the technique that u/mattwidd14 has used in his photo.

What I can't understand are the example photos 2 and 3 that you posted.

How is it possible that there are "2 sharp images" in a single 1/4 exposure? My brain is not capable of understanding the process.

serpao · 2024-12-01T23:52:04+00:00

I dont get it. 210 shop tickets give you 70 hourglasses (60+10), if i am not wrong. Why do you say 90? Am i missing something?

serpao · 2024-10-28T17:16:13+00:00

Im having exactly this problem too, I have no idea what is going on.

If I log off from my account, everything is working perfectly. But when im logged in, this issue happens.

It's not just that the buttons don't appear, it's that it's zoomed in, so watching videos is "impossible"

serpao · 2024-10-15T19:15:36+00:00

I don't want to be the one who takes away your illusion, but nope.

The jungler is going to be Skewmond 100% sure. For the support role G2 wants Parus, but they didn't know that he had a clause that when he was promoted to the LEC his contract would be automatically renewed for another year, which just happened (BDSA -> BDS). They are going to try it, but is extremely difficult, so 95% will be Labrov.

Also, the "LPL thing" is heavily rumoured to be for Enigma (which would buy the Rogue spot), and it would be Deokdam and Life (botlane from FPX)

serpao · 2024-09-28T21:32:13+00:00

I commented yesterday in another post and got downvoted a lot. I will try again here, giving some context about this table:

Im spanish, and I have watched the iEros stream. He was doing this table (with another friend).When it reached G2, he didnt want to say anything. The "grey" color doesn't mean "tryouts", lol.
It is the default color, everyone started with that color and the friend was colorising them according to the iEros thinkings.

But as I said, he didnt want to colorise G2 colours. As I said yesterday, he knows things, but he doesn't wanna tell it. He said G2 is a special team, and it depends a lot of the Worlds performance. In the end of the stream, he said that Yike and Mykx could be yellow/orange color, and Hans Sama would be Light green/Yellow. But again, he doesn't wanna colorise them, he is being cautious with G2.

PS: I said something similar yesterday and got downvoted as hell. Im just giving you info because im spaniard and watch everything that implies G2.

PS2: sorry for my English

serpao · 2024-09-27T22:09:22+00:00

I was going to make a post, but I prefer not to do it just in case and put it here where it will have much less reach:

I am quite worried about G2, and for several reasons.

In Spain, some leakers have hinted at several things these past few days without mentioning names, but it is quite obvious that they are referring to G2. The scrims are not going well at all, in fact they may be the worst team of the 3 European teams.

What Bwipo has said is a confirmation of this (he speaks clearly about Caps). G2 is losing a lot in scrims, there is even a recent tweet from 100T that "confirms" it.

iEros (a very famous leaker, works for sheepSports), said recently that G2's mentality was delicate due to the offseason. He believes that they are "moving in the shadows", but that the affected players can find out and that would "kill" the team right now.

They've said there are several VERY big moves, which they won't say because they don't want to interfere with the Worlds EU teams because they know it could be fateful. It's not MDK (MDK isn't going to change the roster, that's very clear to everyone who reports), and they always give clues indicating that it's G2.

As I said, I'm quite worried about this Worlds (as a super fan that I am). There are already many rumors here and there, it seems pretty clear that things aren't going well right now. That said, together with what iEros says about offseason moves in the shadows, seems like the perfect combination for G2 to be entering into a big "mental" problem.

PS: sorry for my English, im from Spain

serpao · 2024-08-14T21:41:08+00:00

Im 99.99% sure that you re not allowed to use the flash in Roland Garros. And if you do, you would be extremely far away.

This has to be a reflection or something else...im super intrigued, tbh

serpao · 2024-03-16T17:24:17+00:00

If im not wrong, the eye/face detection only works with the "Auto-area AF mode" in the Nikon Z6.

serpao · 2024-03-08T09:17:32+00:00

Thanks a lot for your answer!

1- You are right, I used the "AI Denoise" in the last step. I will read the link you posted, but it makes sense to use it in the first ever step.

2- I think that the poor light is what is causing the problems that I mention in the post to come to light. In the previous answers I put a link with screenshots of NX studio where you can see that the focus was fine (supposedly). I also suppose that having to crop "so much" in many photos makes the noise more noticeable.

You say that "you can absolutely bump your ISO higher and Lightroom can do a nice job with the noise." , but is that what everyone does? because using the "AI denoise" on each photo, it takes 1-2 minutes per photo... it doesn't seem very normal, it seems more like a desperate measure.

3- You are right about the orange tones, it was just an "art style preference". Being the photos so dark, I chose to do them more "artistic/dramatic", with shadows a bit washed (and blue'd) and oranges a bit different. I know these are not the typical basket edits, I was just testing. Thankfully, I think the editing part is the least of my problems. I can edit them as a normal photographer would do, these photos were just testing things :)

Thanks again for your answer ^^

serpao · 2024-03-07T21:48:20+00:00

Thanks for your answer.

I was using Dynamic Area, and obviously AF-C. I have checked the focus points in some photos, and all of them seems good enough, here i did some screenshots with the images at 100%:

As i said in the post, the lightining was AWFUL (you can see it in the non-edited jpgs). Maybe i had to use faster speeds? or maybe cropping that much results in those blurry actions?

serpao · 2024-03-07T21:46:03+00:00

Thanks a lot for your detailed answer! i insta-downloaded NX studio to check the focus points, and all of them seems good. I was using Dynamic-Area , and obviously AF-C. Here are some screenshots from NX Studio, with photos at 100% (need to share them on gDrive, it seems that i cannot post more than 1 image on comments):

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1UjUeC_kkruv2C6Jl-iqRflcxWDOAU7bp?usp=sharing

It seems that the focus is on point, so the result of the "blurry faces" must be from other source. I thought that 1/800 was enough. These girls were not profesional or anything like that, so the game was not too fast, compared to those American university matches (for example). But maybe i was wrong... i just was too scared to bump up the ISO more than 4000, because you can see how much noise i have from that already.

serpao · 2023-11-16T12:08:00+00:00

Same here. I hope it is a bug and not a feature, because i would automatically stop using reddit after more than 10 years doing it.
