man 1000 emeralds for a 5-star that starts you on a heavy revolver is crazy value, most classes dont spike that hard from run start

6 champs in 2026 instead of 5 means riot’s committed, 2xko roster won’t feel empty at launch

2700 v-bucks for a pro skin bundle is steep, only worth if you’ll use every cosmetic

12+ adaptations and still no schedule, cope

zywoo at 93.39 adr and still out in quarters is wild, vitality got hard diffed by falcons

quick fix: 2,216,902 peak isn’t just twitch+youtube, other streams feed that total

stage 3 was brutal, but winning a double overtime decider on anubis is exactly the kind of pressure rep you need for playoffs

3:0 giga stomp

two kills with a ten-year souvenir, poetic

ok but europe has 16 teams in closed quals, if thats “free” your math is cooked

4 years later and still no date

mikoto 7.76 kda over 25 matches is nuts, thats not a fluke sample like some 10-game top 10 lists

people clown nafany like he’s dead weight but that 1:2 to 3:2 comeback in the eu final doesn’t happen if the calling is trash

navi winning cologne, 4-map pool (ancient mirage dust2 inferno) is major-winning stuff, vitality can’t ban everything

cope calling this “straightforward” when it’s 92 collectibles, that’s the whole platinum grind right there

teams spamming the same 20-minute deathball in bo1 qualifiers are the freest +ev angle, book lines still treat them like standard drafts even after they’ve shown the timing once

format's too forgiving, nrg went 0-2

reminds me of old vp runs where 1 guy just hard carries, ws 33/8/26 is straight up series diff

fair, when a game ends 12:0 it’s macro and draft gap, caps can be best player but that score is 5-man execution

13-2 record, perfect time to test bluffing

2030 locks for doc/gafolo/rdnzao is wild

seven deposits per trip lol

imagine calling it a fluke when he dropped 7.4 vs vitality in playoffs, thats the only number i need

back when event pets weren’t locked behind 0.5% rolls, you just played the game and got them

mouz winning only 5 rounds across 2 maps is just unacceptable at this level, thats not getting outplayed thats getting deleted

lmao 13:0 on lotus is straight disrespect, edg vs xlg is the first real test now

20–30 minutes per intro just to reroll once is brutal, how is this guy still on the roster

fr 14th in vrs looks nice on paper but if they already miss iem cologne major 2026, envy buying now is just paying for zero impact this season

kinda cope, it’s on game pass day 1 so 29.99 isn’t even the main gatekeeper here

on the drop-connection point, the article gives 0 details about mid-session behavior, only that you need internet to start it, so assume risk until devs clarify

man without winrate/pickrate numbers the roi part is vibes, use something like patch 26.9 data or it’s pointless

kiritych~ dropping 10.0/5.0/19.7 kda over 3 maps in a 3-0 is the whole story, aurora never had a window to punish him

if 4 teams skip groups, seeding criteria has to be public upfront

jemkin dropping 62/37 is the whole series, rrq looked dead until he started farming

ok but 4 forms in the teaser is thin, alien x alone better be worth it

fair point, but the article says a loss resets the progress bar, not the whole rank, and with 6 tiers streaks matter more than raw volume

patch 12.08 on april 29 mid-groups is brutal, teams get basically 0 prep for ascent

cope, theyve got 7 grand finals since 2025 and only 1 trophy, thats literally the opposite of a finals converter so far

patch 7.41 letting call/curse redirect duel is busted, that ult is literally single-target lock and drafts hinge on that interaction

0:2 to tes, how is blg still together

people crying about tone but a 2:0 vs reigning champs buys you any comms style

people clowning intel arc like it’s irrelevant, but patch 1.03.00 adding native arc support is a legit win for pc stability, let them cook

tbf it’s literally 2 games + pokémon home, thats a paywall move and it’s lame

both 1-1, total coinflip

man 30-minute delay, admin asleep is wild

yall really coping like a free loss is fine, starting swiss 0-1 is already digging a hole

yall really paying 180 pokécoins for a lure, thats pure copium

reminds me of lisbon 2022: 16 teams but only 6 get the arena, so studio group stage is where the real upset potential is

reminds me of peak astralis days, a 14-series streak usually ends in another clean 2-0

reminds me of the old days when players had to deal with 5am matches too. funny how some things never change. still, scheduling should def be more player-friendly, especially for the older pros. not a new issue, but still needs fixing
