yall too young to remember xbox 360 points cards, now it’s klarna debt for skins, same nickel-and-dime vibe just cleaner ui

yall too young to remember ti5 doom, you’re not forcing first rosh at lvl6 with blink, that timing comes way later in real games

honestly locking hans sama to 2028 screams old 2019 g2 stability, same “keep the core, farm lec” blueprint they rode with caps and perkz back then

people forget vp looked lost after one bo3 too, swiss is about resets not vibes

spirit is taking navi out round 1, same vibe as gambit krakow 2017 when favorites got clipped early

reminds me how fast vp fell after 2017, except na’s drop from boston 2018 champs to zero top16 is even uglier

ok but tyloo vs 9z feels like that old gambit vs immortals vibe, two “who asked for this” teams suddenly playing for real stakes

same as 2020 lpl points, relax

ok but this is old vp anti-tilt

one 2-0 h2h means nothing, yall too young to remember reykjavik 2021 where first lan reads flipped overnight

hle “on paper” is cope, t1 in bo5 always turns into 2016 skt mode when msi tickets are up

lmao navi losing a 58 minute decider feels like ti3 all over again, same old late game nerves since the alliance era just with pipsqueak+4 instead

238 acs is huge, but yall too young to remember 2021 sentinels qualifiers looked godmode then lan humbled them, ceiling talks need a few more series

yeah, lower bracket is one life left, one more loss and theyre out, same as lpl 2020 double elim cope

q-lens gimmick feels like goldeneye 64 watch gadget tutorials, shell game was never about eyes, just use the tool and move on

people forget no[o]ne was doing this since vp 2017, teh 6.17 kda mvp is pure mid control

since when did tadpole lights break spawn logic, reminds me of subnautica 2018 stalker leash bugs

imagine calling it solo carry when g2’s 12:0 looked like 2019 g2 machine, caps just the face of the system

yall forget ti3 bottle-crow mid was basically decided by courier kills, item value > kill count, same logic for these props

like fnatic katowice 2015, slow execs win mirage

free map on paper since when, people said the same about 2018 astralis nuke and still got dragged into ugly games when the veto forced weird ct halves

cope, bo1s been part of dota forever, ti7 liquid started their run through a bo1 too, tundra winning a 63 minute brawl isnt cheese

fair point, without bo3 facet stats it’s just 7.00 talent-tree vibes all over again, and these prop edges will get priced out fast once books track real winrates

g2 2019 msi

9z to playoffs, feels like 2017 immortals bo3 chaos all over again

yall too young, vp used to trade 2-0s with sk in 2017, last week sweep means nothing, 61% isnt cope stop coping

team spirit 3-0 paths still happen, pgl krakow 2017 swiss showed seeding chaos even with bo3

yall too young to remember hon lifesteal splash jank, battle fury healing off cleave is pure cope

zywoo mirage 13:1 feels like 2019 vitality

mutual split right before playing loud is peak c9, reminds me of 2017 na shuffle season where every “rebuild” made them worse

chovy closing like 2022 gen.g again

ive been saying this, “rare” like old vanilla wow attunement keys—guaranteed, but you can’t shortcut the questline

lmao 13:0 on nuke is some 2015 fnatic stomp vibes, heroic really ate that oldschool spawnkill special

this kiritych~ series reminds me of prime ramzes days, quiet numbers then suddenly the whole map is his

lmao this is the same meltdown we saw when 7.00 dropped and everyone swore dota was dead

lowkey jackhammer being locked behind a full clear feels like old re4 ng+ era, back when you had to earn the fun melee instead of day 1 loadouts

lunar supremacy on lunatic dififculty gives me cod4 veteran plat vibes, back when hard modes werent just checklist padding

jdg straight up threw bind overtime, reminds me of faze boston 2018 meltdown all over again

yall too young to remember esea pugs in 2012, same story: grown dudes tilting hardest, just now faceit finally counted it

mirage into ancient comeback felt like old vp 2015, modern teams rarely show that kind of grit anymore

tbh org tell-alls like this aren’t new, reminds me of old vp management leaks, but still needs receipts

big at cologne always hits different, reminds me of those 2018 lan runs when home crowd turned maps into festivals

lol 14 invites + 4 qualifier spots isnt 16 teams, thats 18, reminds me of pgl krakow 2017 info posts miscounting slots

wicadia dropping 37 with 89 adr feels like early xantarespace days, people forgot turks always show up when playoffs start

lol imagine spending time dressing up pets in crimson desert instead of grinding reminds me of when ppl got obsessed with skins in csgo back in 2015 instead of actually playing the game

flashpoint update reminds me of when inferno got reworked in csgo and threw everyone off balance adaptation is key

karanda reminds me of those old school mmo bosses that needed strategy and patience like ragna in wow classic ppl these days just wanna button mash through everything no respect for the craft anymore

exactly and on top of that, tempo comps often control objectives better early which is key. reminds me of old sk gaming days when they dominated early game. consistency in early leads makes a huge diff

hard agree, tier 2 and 3 getting love but tier 1 cs2 feels ignored here

nah that's classic liquid, always falling to the new talents like donk. reminds me of their struggles against young guns in 2018. they gotta figure it out or they'll stay stuck in this cycle
