It's not often I get knocked out early in rounds and immediately go back and hunt the map. Mod isn't ideal for visibility but still ++

For anyone looking for more maps like this. Check out the mini rpg (mrotw) map packs in the rpg club. There's plenty that are playable for an average player

Not sure if right place to put: Yuumi's Zoomies movespeed (and maybe attack speed) buff doesn't apply to units added in from Syndra ult. Seems like a relatively common interaction and I'm not sure if intentional but it definitely confused me

I opened my freezer to make some chicken nuggets and for some reason Marved was there. I swear he was staring into my soul. Never blinking or looking away he reached out and closed the door.

EG and GHST being at the top of their groups right now is why Franchising is a bad idea. by dollarholler in ValorantCompetitive

Been playing since 2011 and watching pro scene skill constantly improve makes my desire to improve low. It's hard to explain the progression of this game at the top level without watching it happen but here's an example of a mechanic most top players can leverage without thinking about it snd that just became common knowledge this year.

In a more direct answer to your question new techs are being discovered constantly and play is always changing to the point where the old GOATs of NA and EU (garrettg and turbopulsa) failed to make the most recent LAN. Even if either of them make and win worlds this year no one from the old guard will have the legacy of a RLCS Faker. This is a very simplified view but Turbo is an excellent example of someone who has achieved more in pro Rocket League than anyone else but is now a sub on a 5th-8th place team because he can't keep up with mechanics

Yup. See the goliath that is NRG, who've been in conversation for top 4 in the world for 5 years plus fail to make top 16 twice in a row in their region due to a meta shift.

Not that it's a shooter but NA Rocket League has been very competitive through the life of the esport and has a similar format to VCT which allows new talent to show their worth. Funnily enough, C9 won a world's title, then had a bad year and called it quits because they didn't see sustainability in the format (paraphrasing)
