really good player with great intuition

thank you to everyone who watched and played in the tournament! we plan to do events similar to this in the future as well.

bump to what i said a few months ago... 3 queues is too much, should revert back to only open and captain pugs. splits the player base too thin and not enough pugs happen.

im not sure how i feel about splitting the open pug system into veteran/open. i dont think the website pugs are popular enough to warrant this.

i would smurf in newbie mixes when i was 14

would anyone be opposed to removing freight from the map pool? i feel like this map always turns into one team bunkering behind that wall where the water is, and it takes like 4 rocket jumps to get there if your team isnt the one bunkering (trains also suck). i think the rest of the maps are good tho.

ive been of the opinion that loch should be banned since it started gaining traction in mid-late 2023. u can have super baity positioning in team fights and still do so much. some amount of risk has to be taken to deal a lot of damage (i use this argument for banning the ball as well) but the loch eliminates thats risk. part of what makes demo difficult is proper positioning to deal damage without catching yourself or baiting.

to comment on this, its widely known that rgl holds a meeting between each season involving invite players to discuss a variety topics ranging from upcoming events, map pools, and weapon bans. if i had to guess rgl is substituting polls with these meetings. an issue with this is that not every invite player attends these meetings (me xd), resulting in maybe like 8-10 total opinions in the discussion of weapon bans and once the discussion sways towards a weapon being banned b4nny points at the rgl mission statement that was written 3 owners ago.

back on topic... i truly believe rgl should just straight up ban loch without having to send out a poll or bring it up in the invite meeting, too much rioting has occurred.

i am extremely skeptical ngl. im interested but i have so many questions i dont even know where to begin. maybe a live stream Q&A would be a good idea

this.

even with ovi likely breaking the scoring record this year, crosby still has more points than ovi in 140 less games and a better career +/- (which is seriously impressive with how rough this season has been for the penguins), sid plays 2 way game better than ovi. not trying to diminish ovis upcoming accomplishment but im taking sid 100%.

bro that is not lag.
