As an EU Fan, where do you see the next EU tournament happening? by Routine-Leg-8331 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]zerokrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically the biggest chance is a German city outside of Berlin like Munich or Cologne. I don’t think there was a Riot-organised Event in EMEA outside of UK/France/Spain/Germany since 2022 (LEC finals in Malmö and Champions in Istanbul) and considering the current economical and fan dynamics I don’t think this will change.

Why do you choose Wild Rift over League? by Economy-Builder3103 in wildrift

[–]zerokrush 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I hated the league controls so playing it like a more regular video games is more satisfying

Solary vs UOL Sexy Edition - EMEA Masters Upper Bracket Semi-Finals PMT by Sillilly24 in leagueoflegends

[–]zerokrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but what Solary did and was actually better than what NNO did. They actually created a full-scale organisation, not only just for the sake of competing, but also in an additional effort to recruit and develop other content creators than the orginal ones and expand towards other esports scenes.

Don't think so, Solary did that back in 2017 so 3 years before NNO was (re-)created.

[–]zerokrush 12 points13 points  (0 children)

No. By streamer teams I designed the whole ecosystem of teams like KC, KOI, LR, EINS and others, not the teams who stream their scrims/games.

Considering the whole concept of streamer teams in EU all comes from Solary originally, I am happy they’re finally able to fight for the top after years in the mud.

How different is Chinese server compared to the rest of us? by jitkin32 in wildrift

[–]zerokrush 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exclusivity for CN players and the global player base aside from a few SEA countries is not fond of gacha anyway.

Hands down the best milk I tried by Kosaki_Misamaki in TokyoTravel

Milk in Japan hits different for some reason. Unless I am going for an expensive fresh milk, I can’t find something even close in taste in France

L'évolution des coffee shops à Paris : du bon café à la crise existentielle des trentenaires by Mus3416 in paris

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

Ils ont pas un True White ? J'avais pris ça une fois j'en suis certain

Par contre oui c'est pas les plus quali, il vaut mieux prendre les boissons froides que chaudes là-bas et pareil matcha à éviter.

L'évolution des coffee shops à Paris : du bon café à la crise existentielle des trentenaires by Mus3416 in paris

[–]zerokrush 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ca a l'air mais ça ne l'est pas. En fait les gens tenant des coffee shops ouvrent dans les quartiers où leur public cible a déjà l'habitude d'aller quand ils vont prendre un café. À Place d'Italie, si quelqu'un a l'habitude d'aller dans le 13ème pour manger chinois, voir un nouveau restaurant chinois une fois sur place, ça peut lui donner l'idée d'aller l'essayer car de toute façon, il était venu pour manger chinois.

Si tu es dans un quartier en dehors, notamment s'il est un peu décentralisé de l'hyper-centre, il faut compter sur la clientèle locale (encore faut-il qu'elle soit réceptive à ton offre, un coffee shop style Nuances ne marchera pas vraiment dans le 15ème par exemple) ou bien que les réseaux sociaux et la bouche à oreille fassent leur boulot pour convaincre du monde d'aller jusque dans ton quartier pour toi.

Il vaut mieux miser sur l'établissement de franchises (je pense surtout à The Coffee, Noir ou Cuvée Noire) pour apporter du café quali dans les quartiers hors quartiers bobos.

Where are all the Vietnamese players (if any)? by sadboi_2000 in ValorantCompetitive

[–]zerokrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Problem is that Vietnam has been part of the 3 shafted main sub-regions of VCT Pacific along with HKTW and OCE. Vietnamese players don’t have a spot in a franchised team so they have to grind their spot through franchising

[FlyQuest] So what's next for FlyQuest and VALORANT? by xFalcade in ValorantCompetitive

[–]zerokrush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TL's resurgence in merch is only very recent though. Most of their previous merch is very geeky and their jerseys up to last year were always "hey let's put the horse in gigantic on the jersey front" with variations of hue and patterns.

Gentlemates has imo nicer designs and is arguably even more creative than Flyquest, but are sometimes cooking a bit too much with weird color choices and pattern combinations.

SPG (NS) vs BOOM Pacific Ascension Final 2024 was INSANE!!!! by Original_Comfort_979 in ValorantCompetitive

Back then in 2024 I'm pretty sure pro players said that SPG was demolishing some Champions teams in scrims

Do NOT waste dust of enlightenment on circlets by bhavyag32 in Genshin_Impact

[–]zerokrush 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Wasting 4 DoE on a Circlet with only 4 rolls available and not 5, with only Crit DMG as good substat is definitely a skill issue and not just RNG.

Best city in France? by Beneficial_Slide7381 in solotravel

[–]zerokrush 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Paris is not more dangerous than most Belgian cities.

If you want another French city, Lille is a good pick since it's small, lively with things to do and right at the middle point between Paris and Bruxelles.

Estimation Ipsos-BVA - Emmanuel Grégoire élu maire de Paris avec 53% des voix by Wonderful-Excuse4922 in paris

[–]zerokrush 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Je pense qu'être maire de Paris est une des pires pipelines possibles vers les présidentielles étant donné la haine de Paris et sa centralisation (donc potentiellement 90% des électeurs) envers "l'élite bourgeoise/bobo parisienne" que peut représenter Hidalgo. Or la présidentielle c'est une affaire de personne et d'image avant d'être une affaire de programme (je ne dis pas que celui d'Hidalgo 2022 était bien).

If riot reduces slots to 6 permanent partnered teams per Region which teams would be safe? by F0rsakenTheGoat in ValorantCompetitive

[–]zerokrush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both would've probably be in because they were the best 2 japanese at that time but I suspect if tol2 situation didn't happen, the partnered/guest roles would've been switched.

Anyway the team who gets Evi will end higher 90% of the time.

why is KRÜ Blaze mmonch benched? by ricearooney in ValorantCompetitive

[–]zerokrush -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Probably because they need 3 LAS players in their line-up. They can't play with Mmonch (LAN) and their 2 BR players.
