[robust patio]

TU(washed emea players) vs old ocean (washed asia players

[crude steeple]

[wise orbit]

ziyad tred qlm and haku carries that team high key

[static turret]

[static turret]

[crude steeple]

[hybrid hollow]

[glass sleet]

Haku ajaxed. Checkmate was carrying on genji and lbbd7 was diffing Kai. So you’re objectively wrong lol

[hybrid hollow]

na can't be fraudulent we have Lenny and pge

[static turret]

Pge is gone

We gotta accept

[wise orbit]

[hybrid hollow]

That's what they want u to think

[crude steeple]

pge is fraud unfortunately but we have tr33 and zeruhh too

[static turret]

Gg

[glass sleet]

Damn.

[hybrid hollow]

[static turret]

THANK YOU HEESANG

[crude steeple]

TYHS TYHS

[static turret]

[glass sleet]

He’s in the wrong region

[robust patio]

[crude steeple]

there were jokes about him going to t1

[robust patio]

but im sure they will be strong

[glass sleet]

Oh

[crude steeple]

but he's not

[glass sleet]

Guess their coach

[robust patio]

who

[glass sleet]

Crusty

[crude steeple]

because someone is playing for t1 and tr33 said he's playing with bernar

[robust patio]

yea geng will dominate emea

[glass sleet]

Easy

[robust patio]

coach aura goes wild

[static turret]

We got uhh

Gucci

[hazy marsh]

tvnt

[static turret]

Tvnt

[hazy marsh]

gucci?

[static turret]

That’s all I got

Gg

Gucci ain’t Saudi

[hybrid hollow]

Haku, yzn(unfortunately), roho, teenage, tvnt

[robust patio]

damn i cant name any lel

[cosmic socket]

saudi players that have hands*

[static turret]

You made these up

[hybrid hollow]

Roho and teenage might be the same person ngl no idea

[glass sleet]

TVNT, m7md, QLM, Ziyad, madara, korz, and that other guy.

[robust patio]

i know know quartz ksaa majed others are randoms

[cosmic socket]

"that other guy"

[crude steeple]

why do saudi players use so many acronym ass usernames

[cosmic socket]

😭

[glass sleet]

Roho IS teenage

Cheating

[hazy marsh]

because of the way arabic writing works i think

[hybrid hollow]

Close enough

[static turret]

You could name off some random shit and I’d believe you

[glass sleet]

Wdym

[hybrid hollow]

You never heard of rizzkid58???

[hazy marsh]

m7md as an example

[crude steeple]

example

[glass sleet]

I think m7md was made up

[hazy marsh]

i think is what he means

[crude steeple]

not words but like. letters

[static turret]

There is 3 different ksaa in owl history

[crude steeple]

together

[hybrid hollow]

Isn't it bc their alphabet doesn't translate directly

[glass sleet]

That’s a name. It’s supposed to be Mohammed

[crude steeple]

idk that's why im asking

i would believe that

[glass sleet]

TVNT is the only one

[static turret]

Prime example

Like

What is this

[wise orbit]

qlm?

[glass sleet]

I think that’s supposed to “Pen”

[robust patio]

what even is yznsa acronym

[glass sleet]

In Arabic

[hazy marsh]

that just looks like Nicos Leet-ified

[hybrid hollow]

Yeah I'm pretty sure it's just English not having a proper translation

[glass sleet]

YZN (his name) SA Saudi Arabia

[hazy marsh]

Yazan Saudi Arabia

[robust patio]

o

[crude steeple]

that would make sense yeah

[glass sleet]

We say Q L M but I’m pretty sure it’s supposed to be pronounced together

[robust patio]

yea i dont know more sa players now

[hazy marsh]

the thing is not having vowels confuses people not using arabic script

[robust patio]

sa dont have that much skilled players

[hazy marsh]

so they look like acronyms

[glass sleet]

I mean Arabic and English are so different so makes sense right?

[hazy marsh]

oh it 100% does

[crude steeple]

ngl i barely pay attention to anything outside of na (literally started following ow esports during stage 4)

[glass sleet]

Also

PGE

[hybrid hollow]

that's why lbbd has a 7 in his name

[robust patio]

i only focus on asia

[glass sleet]

wtf is that

[glass sleet]

Lol yeah

Lil bro 7

Avast started that, right?

During OWWC

[hybrid hollow]

Probably avast starts everything

[robust patio]

the only sa player i respect is quartz the rest are mid in my opinion

[cosmic socket]

infekted was calling him L-B-B-D

it was pissing me off so much

[robust patio]

💀

[crude steeple]

this is true there's such talent in na but asia sweeps

[crude steeple]

he didn't know and honestly neither did i

[glass sleet]

Seoul

[crude steeple]

or probably most of na

[robust patio]

[crude steeple]

how is it im curious
would be nice to be in a place that has a . better infrastructure for esports

[robust patio]

yes

[wise orbit]

wait thats cool asf

[glass sleet]

Guys I’m kidding. I’m American from the land of the free 🦅

[hazy marsh]

I AM FROM ENGLAND AMEERICA

[glass sleet]

I wish. My gf trying to get me to move to Japan tho.

[crude steeple]

jpn esports also looking pretty good right now

[crude steeple]

especially for overwatch apparently

[glass sleet]

You know who’s looking pretty good in esports? Saudi Arabia

[robust patio]

big boss pine with Ans

[wise orbit]

idk they have big orgs and stuff but the players are pretty shit

[robust patio]

imma go watch asia owcs live LAN

[crude steeple]

that's true unfortunately i am queer so. that's not happening i don't think

[wise orbit]

I think japan has big potential tho

[crude steeple]

fuck i can't react to anything

[robust patio]

they only have good infra but less good players

[crude steeple]

is cr mostly korean rn

[robust patio]

yes

[crude steeple]

ahhh

[robust patio]

entire coach + players

korean

[crude steeple]

oh damn

[robust patio]

same for zeta and falcon(99.9 korean)

[wise orbit]

Yeah all the big japanese orgs have korean rosters I think

[hybrid hollow]

When pine droppin the next Roblox montage

[wise orbit]

is varrel a big org?

[robust patio]

its a big org in japan i heard

[hybrid hollow]

Maybe in other games

[robust patio]

hes a working at a bank lol

[glass sleet]

I’m pretty sure many gay people been to KSA and enjoyed their time

[wise orbit]

its weird how many japanese orgs have invested in ow actually

[glass sleet]

If they can’t win tournaments, hosting events is second best lol

[crude steeple]

twas unaware
i am pretty uninformed on ksa politics lowkey

[robust patio]

i got japanese owl players on my mouse pad too

[crude steeple]

there's also the whole situations of like. a bunch of na talent (casters and players) being scared to go to ewc or whatever

[glass sleet]

If we’re being honest. There’s what people see on the news or hear what others tell them and there are people who been to KSA. Their opinions never match

[wise orbit]

honestly the only guy I remember opting out of ewc is masaa

[glass sleet]

The great thing is all the players, casters, talent, staff and anyone involved in EWC that went last year said they had an amazing time.

[crude steeple]

feel like that's almost true for like. any region really

[glass sleet]

At least for overwatch section

[glass sleet]

Others were virtue signaling

[crude steeple]

but idk politics are weird and scare me and i already worry about being hate crimed enough (living in idaho)

[wise orbit]

I get the concerns about saudi tho, sportswashing is cringe

[crude steeple]

sportswashing ?

[glass sleet]

Yeah. I saw a reel of that one guy that pretends to be flags of other countries and talks about what’s going on with them currently and he had one of KSA and he said how tourism in KSA more than doubled lately

[crude steeple]

what is that

[glass sleet]

Ngl Saudis might be more chill than Americans

[cosmic socket]

basically hiding the downsides of your country to the world for the sake of holding sports events

[glass sleet]

We Americans kinda wild

[wise orbit]

"Sportswashing is a term used to describe the practice of nations, individuals, groups, corporations, or the government using sports to improve reputations tarnished by wrongdoing. "

[crude steeple]

oh. well yeah that would make sense

[glass sleet]

Sounds like USA…

[crude steeple]

LMAO ^^

[glass sleet]

And UK

[wise orbit]

wait what do you mean

[glass sleet]

and France…

Fuck

[crude steeple]

except sports are like. not what we're known for globally

[glass sleet]

NFL

Hello?

[crude steeple]

people don't come from germany to watch a vikings game

[glass sleet]

Basketball

😭

[wise orbit]

@glass sleet wait can you elaborate

[crude steeple]

ykw im an eagles fan and i can just never tell if that team is doing good or not

[wise orbit]

how have any of those places been sportswashing

[glass sleet]

Well what I mean by ass is…you know, playing badly.

Not actual ass

[wise orbit]

.

[crude steeple]

definitely don't think FRANCE of all places would be sportwashing

[glass sleet]

Cmon USA is a shit country with a shit government.

[glass sleet]

Erm

Tbh

Their shit league should drop from top5

[crude steeple]

i thought france was tourismpilled

[glass sleet]

They only have PSG

[crude steeple]

LOL

[wise orbit]

ok? what about uk and france then lol

[glass sleet]

Unless you’re Muslim or Arab I guess. They still harass those fellas

[glass sleet]

Buddy buddy buddy. Ever heard of Gary?

Gary something

[wise orbit]

no

[glass sleet]

I forgot his last name lol

Anyway

[crude steeple]

bro talking bout gary the snail

[glass sleet]

Shit countries

[glass sleet]

Ngl he did pop in mind when I said the name

[wise orbit]

nah but like memes aside how are uk and france shit countries

[glass sleet]

I mean ever heard of Paris syndrome?

[cosmic socket]

british and french people

[wise orbit]

aren't they like among the most democratic countries on earth lol

[crude steeple]

that is a tourism thing

people just crying because it isn't as pretty as it is in movies and stuff

[glass sleet]

Yeah they assault Muslims like I said earlier

[crude steeple]

similarly
new york

[glass sleet]

There’s videos of it

[wise orbit]

bro thats just people being disappointed by paris

[glass sleet]

Also no Muslim allowed neighborhoods and stuff

[crude steeple]

this is a fair point but also britain and england do this too

[glass sleet]

Did I not say UK is shit? My bad

Hey UK is shit

I’m definitely getting muted for this

[crude steeple]

LOL

[wise orbit]

sure hate crimes happen but I was talking about governments sportswashing to hide their wrongdoings

[crude steeple]

is sportswashing typically systematic or immediate

[glass sleet]

Yeah primer league was doing that

[wise orbit]

elaborate

[glass sleet]

Also

[wise orbit]

I'm not familiar

[glass sleet]

What KSA is doing to football is literally what eu is doing

Bring all the players from other regions to play there

[wise orbit]

idk I don't think this convo is going anywhere

you keep doing whataboutisms and stuff

[glass sleet]

He look

Cool headshot

[cosmic socket]

ye

[glass sleet]

I don’t wanna talk about politics cuz I’ll get muted or banned

[cosmic socket]

i still think quartz is the best hitscan rn

[glass sleet]

Like general shit might be fine but I don’t wanna leave bro

[cosmic socket]

at least the best widow

[glass sleet]

😭

[glass sleet]

Stalk3r

Diffed him

[cosmic socket]

you have to remember that quartz is popping off on widow with tvnt and a pharah otp on his team

think about what he could do with an actual good team

[glass sleet]

That’s a good point

Was proper on genji?

During the game I can’t remember

[hazy marsh]

soon we wont have to think about it, we'll be able to watch it

[glass sleet]

Weeeeeeeeeeeeell

I’m not so confident with the new roster outside of Seicoe

[hazy marsh]

fair

[glass sleet]

Yeah but hey I still believe

I gotta

If Quartz can carry with otp dps

Imagine carrying with seicoe

That’s all TM needs

Right?

Am I the only one who thinks this is super funny?

The clip started late but rein was with his team, he walks away all around the hotel then walks back.

[rugged quest]

Doesnt rly help your international image when no one outside your country watches it

[glass sleet]

Most are from USA yes but millions watch it from outside as well

[static turret]

Peps look good

[glass sleet]

TU should win this

[glass sleet]

idk wtf is wrong with my WiFi today

[static turret]

Did your stream freeze to

[wise orbit]

bro what the fuck is up with tu and koth maps

[glass sleet]

Why? Also ITS FUNNY! Lol he just went for a walk

[glass sleet]

Their coach is none other. Mister theory himself

He’s purposely losing KOTH to boost his theory

[wise orbit]

I see

[glass sleet]

I didn’t know people still get so mad being called a loser in 2025

[cosmic socket]

are they doing hero bans?

[wise orbit]

nah

not yet

[glass sleet]

Oooh I see why peps won

Xzodyal

[wise orbit]

kai threw?

[glass sleet]

WAIT

why is xzodyal on PEPS

[wise orbit]

idk they started signing a lot of solid players

[glass sleet]

That’s bs

He isn’t on TU cuz he’s not friends with kev

Unfair

Thought ken was a cass player

[static turret]

Fd is good on lucio

[wise orbit]

I want to see some chase hazard

[static turret]

He needs to stay on lucio

Terrible blade

[wise orbit]

lucio otp in hero ban era gg

[glass sleet]

He played it yesterday

[static turret]

Geez

[crude steeple]

yeahhh mfc dying after stage 1

[glass sleet]

Why does xzodyal have the KSA charm on his gun?

Thought he’s Spanish

[wise orbit]

I'm gonna be honest, I like ksaa but I wish they had bestola :p

[glass sleet]

How is his hazard?

[static turret]

Ewww ksaa

[wise orbit]

vestolas? I have no idea

[static turret]

Good wall

[glass sleet]

I haven’t seen him play

[wise orbit]

yea hes with vp so he wont play until regular season

[static turret]

Get this guy off Genji

[spiral light]

woah korea got 4 partner places

they finally got what they deserved

[wise orbit]

should have been 4 asia slots at lan instead of 2 asia 2 china

bro who will even be on the second china team lol

[static turret]

OA academy

Or raymomo fishbowl

[wise orbit]

gg

[hybrid hollow]

Streets saying Mel quit his job just to watch owcs

Ooohhhh lord save me my drug is my baby

[wise orbit]

what the fuck are you talking about

[deft marlin]

lol

It’s kind awkward how Korea gets 4 partner slots but only 2 slots at lan

I know the 4 partner slots wasn’t the original vision but still

[wise orbit]

I think the whole of asia should have gotten 4 slots

like last year but with china and two more slots

[glass sleet]

Did they not have any changes?

[wise orbit]

no not any players at least

[glass sleet]

Wouldn’t it be super boring if top 3 were always Korean?

[wise orbit]

idrk the coaching staff

[glass sleet]

FLC looks super nerfed if the rumors are true

[viscid hatch]

Huh

[viscid hatch]

They the only thing that is bad imo is losing stalker, someone might be better than Hanbin Smurf in a hero bans meta

And if the shu rumours were false surely fielder is still there

[glass sleet]

I mean going from stalker to merit is a really big downside

[viscid hatch]

Yeah

[glass sleet]

Stalker is really fucking good

[viscid hatch]

Yeah

[wise orbit]

you'd think having some pacific/japanese team would be cool until they lose every map and are the first to get knocked out

[glass sleet]

I mean it seems they said what they wanted while being respectful. Exo, take notes.

And what they said sounds legit

[pure bramble]

i hope these new NA teams are as entertaining as the last ones

[hybrid hollow]

Eh

Actually yeah

At least we should a real rivalry in the region now instead of Toronto shitting on everyone

EU roster mania was peak tho endless competition

[glass sleet]

What were the teams for NA again?

SSG has seeker, sugarfree, and Cjay. I’m guessing the other two are Korean?

Korean tank

[hybrid hollow]

Yeah it was Kellan and bliss iirc

And liquid was Infekted tree peli and Rupal Vega maybe idk

At least from the rumours

Neither roster was confirmed yet right?

[glass sleet]

Thought pelican was in zeta

[glass sleet]

I just mentioned the ones I saw from the teaser

[hybrid hollow]

He was in the rumours for team liquid and it's no secret he likes playing in na

No idea tho

[glass sleet]

I don’t like waiting lol

[hybrid hollow]

Rumours are probably inaccurate tho

well actually liquid has the money so maybe not

[glass sleet]

I mean the TU one was spot on

[hybrid hollow]

True

[glass sleet]

Which makes me think they might be accurate

[hybrid hollow]

I hope they're accurate bc those teams looked so much fun

[glass sleet]

Looked like they all had a chance

God I really hope it’s not another TD situation

[hybrid hollow]

yeah that's why I really like EU rn

[glass sleet]

Wait who is on NTMR?

Cuffa, zeruhh, lethal, admiral, and I can’t think of the fS

Lethal might actually have to start playing again lol. No third dps to take his spot.

Will lethal finally play????

[glass sleet]

OH UV

[glass sleet]

What do you think? Ntmr better or worse

[hybrid hollow]

uhhh

[glass sleet]

Oh nvm lethal ain’t playing

[hybrid hollow]

Idk tbh

[glass sleet]

I didn’t see vision

[hybrid hollow]

I wanna say they're worse but maybe not

[glass sleet]

Only time lethal plays is if vision calls him again and asks him to take his spot and clutch up a reverse sweep

[hybrid hollow]

Clear still has a lot of potential, maybe lethal actually gets playtime, cuffah is always solid, and the backline is an upgrade imo

[glass sleet]

Yeah I wanna say they’re slightly worse just very slightly worse but than again. Cuffa does kinda have a nice winton for a white boy

[glass sleet]

I think Cjay is top 2 na

Or top3 it’s fine

[hybrid hollow]

Yeah him Rupal and UV are the best in na

The order lowkey depends on the meta ngl

if Juno is super strong I got cjay at one ngl

[glass sleet]

Ntmr should’ve became the third na partner lol

I understand why not

[hybrid hollow]

Oh yeah there's no news on tht

[glass sleet]

Yeah i agree

[hybrid hollow]

It should go to ntmr theyre lowkey the reason na was able to stay entertaining after ewc

[glass sleet]

Fl4k did say they’re sticking around. At least for this year. He loves the game too much to quit he said

[glass sleet]

But it’s such a small org. Literally one team, right? The smart move is to parter up with massive orgs like cloud9

[hybrid hollow]

Who was the original 3rd spot supposed to be again

C9?

[glass sleet]

Yes

Idk. Maybe they asked for too much money or something

[hybrid hollow]

Not giving it to NRG or ntmr is crazy

[glass sleet]

But I guess that allowed Zeta to stick around

[hybrid hollow]

did Toronto leave bc they didn't get a spot or were they leaving anyways?

[static pond]

no accoring to tree

[glass sleet]

Imo Zeta is a bigger org

[static pond]

there was gonna be 4 slots for kr ether way

even if na got a third team

[hybrid hollow]

Wait kr has 4 slots now? I'm so out the loop

[glass sleet]

Nah they didn’t even apply for a spot. They had no intention for this year. The owner said that the scene doesn’t have enough sponsors basically. They’ll be more than happy to join next year if things continue to grow. They said they like the direction they’re going.

[glass sleet]

That would make it 10 orgs

[hybrid hollow]

Understandable

[glass sleet]

No?

[hybrid hollow]

They probably make way more money from cdl

[static pond]

this is true

[glass sleet]

Yeah he kept mentioning how ultra was the most selling skin in cod

[static pond]

plus they dont host half the events

orgs do

[glass sleet]

TD basically just wanted more sponsors to stick around this year

[hybrid hollow]

I got the ultra skin in 2023 before I knew who they were

[glass sleet]

For COD?

[hybrid hollow]

yeah

[glass sleet]

Is it purple?

[static pond]

it prob optioc

[hybrid hollow]

Yep

[static pond]

optic

[glass sleet]

I got infernal before I got into owl. Been a fan since

[glass sleet]

What about them?

[static pond]

think they sell more cdl

[glass sleet]

Looking forward to optic, 100T, and C9 to join hopefully

[static pond]

in cdl

[glass sleet]

No TD owner literally kept mentioning that they’re the most selling

He kept saying the most

Not one of

Or top 3

[hybrid hollow]

It is the best color way I believe it

[glass sleet]

Did ultra win EWC?

For COD

[hybrid hollow]

No idea

[static pond]

faze

[hybrid hollow]

keep forgetting those guys are still an org

[glass sleet]

Idk why but I hate FaZe

[hybrid hollow]

I like their siege team

I don't keep up with them in any other scene tho

[glass sleet]

I was cheering for G2 back in r6 days

[hybrid hollow]

I just route for the team wit the players I like

[glass sleet]

Valorant has like 20 parter orgs btw

Around 20

[hybrid hollow]

im fucking wit m80 rn

[static pond]

doest make sense cuz optic has the most views

in cdl

[glass sleet]

M80 is in other games?

[hybrid hollow]

yeah

They were in siege first

I think

[glass sleet]

I mean some people would just buy skins cuz they like the colors

[hybrid hollow]

Probably in cs too

[glass sleet]

I thought they were just in overwatch idk why tho

Idk why I had the impression they were a t2 org

Apparently VP is a big org? Never seen them in other games

I was shocked to see VP get a spot

[wise orbit]

ive heard of them in cs

[glass sleet]

The orgs better have awesome skins. The colors better go hard.

TM, and NTMR colors

Oh shit NTMR isn’t a partner nvm

ssg?

Yellow and black

[deft marlin]

Is Zeta just white and black?

Or do they have a third color?

[glass sleet]

I’m hoping white black and neon green

[hybrid hollow]

I think it's just white and black but in the Asia lan their highlight color was green

viol2t trapped with the black white and green

[glass sleet]

The skins for Valorant do not match colors

[deft marlin]

Wonder how tier one and CR will work since they are both black and red no?

[hybrid hollow]

forever and outlaws player

[static pond]

t1!!!!!!!

t1!!!!!

[glass sleet]

At least the new guns have completely different colors

[static pond]

idk who to cheer for t1 or cr

[glass sleet]

They’re be different shades

[hybrid hollow]

T1 might have red as the primary maybe and Cr will have black

[deft marlin]

Do we even know the T1 roster?

[static pond]

i would do gen g

but there eu

[glass sleet]

Let them announce the rosters first

[static pond]

idc

im still cheer for t1

[glass sleet]

There you go

[static pond]

cuz faker

[glass sleet]

Not cuz of MN3?

Hmmmm

Interesting

[static pond]

no

why

i cheer for lip

[glass sleet]

He joined T1 in Valorant after owl

That’s the first I’ve ever heard of T1

Btw

[static pond]

they hvae played csgo

most likey

before ow

[glass sleet]

100t said they wish they paid the 2 million for TenZ

TWO MILLION

he’s a video game pro dude

[static pond]

100t spends to much

imo

even there cdl is a super team

[glass sleet]

They didn’t spend it. They said 2 million is too much but after tenZ retired, and time has passed, nadeshot said he should’ve went for it

Apparently prime TenZ was a beast

[static pond]

idk

[glass sleet]

Also

[static pond]

i dont watch val

[glass sleet]

Valorant makes skins specifically for VCT and 50% of the revenue goes to the teams

[static pond]

to slow for me

ya

[glass sleet]

Guess how much last VCT made

[static pond]

ik it alot

[glass sleet]

Yeah it took me 4 years to get use to it

[static pond]

i seen it forgot the amount

[glass sleet]

Cmon bro

Take a guess

[static pond]

10mill

[glass sleet]

No last year was 22m

This year was 30 million

[static pond]

damn

[glass sleet]

And orgs get 50%

HALF BRO

[static pond]

and rumors say val esports is dying

[glass sleet]

they get 15 mill

[static pond]

we get 25

1/4

so sad

[glass sleet]

And then you have fucking overwatch that only uses the shittiest skins they can find and only give 25% to teams

[static pond]

lol makes a lot just from icons

[glass sleet]

At least have a top tier skin and you’ll make more money

[static pond]

not just tht

overprice af

[glass sleet]

The fact they intentionally pick the worst skins is upsetting cuz they rather sell the best skins at full price

[static pond]

owl was like 20 for one skin

[glass sleet]

Technically it’s two

The skins are expensive cuz they split it with the org

[static pond]

in lol i htink u get like a bundle

skin with icon

and a emote

[glass sleet]

For owl?

[static pond]

league

[glass sleet]

OH YOU MEAN BUNDLES?

[static pond]

lol is league of legends

[glass sleet]

Oh I didn’t see you type lol first

[static pond]

ya i think it like 20 for a whole pack

[glass sleet]

I know what lol is

Lol

[static pond]

of icon and skins

unless ur faker

which u have to pay 500

[glass sleet]

Why?

[static pond]

for the whole skin

[glass sleet]

Why?

[static pond]

idk

[glass sleet]

Why?

[static pond]

riot

[glass sleet]

Fuck riot

Dude

[static pond]

faker skin was like 500 overall

[glass sleet]

Riot is way more greedier than blizzard

[static pond]

100 cheapest i think

yes abd bo

and no

they have really good skins for low price

[glass sleet]

I can’t believe the shitty monetary policies they use in Valorant

[glass sleet]

Cheapest knife you’ll find is 35$

[static pond]

i paid like 10 for a skin with differint affects too

in lol i mean

[glass sleet]

Oh

I’m talking about VAL

[static pond]

ya idk the prices i heard there a lot

[glass sleet]

Valorant’s skins are so expensive

[static pond]

like a lot alot

for a weapon skin

[glass sleet]

The last bundle they had was 95$

ALMOST 100$!!!

But

Hey at least if you just want the knife and not the 100$ bundle

You can get it for 53$

[static pond]

ya im not getting into val

to confusing

[glass sleet]

FUCKING 53$

And the price will never drop

[static pond]

and overprice

i wanna try csgo

i kinda like wtahcing it more

over val

[glass sleet]

Their skins have tiers and the best and most popular skins don’t get discounts

[static pond]

wtf

[glass sleet]

Also

You can’t just go to the skins and just scroll to find the one you wanna buy

You have to check daily through 4 times at a time hoping you get what you want

[static pond]

ngl tht just sounds shit

val sounds like shit

hoping for value deadlock to pop off

[glass sleet]

They legit pressure people into buying skins cuz you have a day to decide if you want the skin you finally been waiting for or wait for it to leave rotation and never know when it’ll be on again

[static pond]

ist tht like aginst the law in come areas

[glass sleet]

Their monetary system is very predatory and unacceptable but Valorant whales don’t mind it. They even defend it

[static pond]

same fans tht prob play lol

[glass sleet]

ALSO

you always have to pay more than you need for a skin

A skin would be like a fucking random number like 21,778 or some shit

[static turret]

We get the official Ssg roster tmmr

And liquid

[glass sleet]

But you have to spend 25$

[static pond]

na is dead

[glass sleet]

Good. About time

[static turret]

Chill we got mr 3rd place team aswell

[static pond]

welcome to riot

[static turret]

Ssg is 100% seeker Lenny and cjay tho

Idk the rest

They have a long haired teammate

So it can’t be a Korean

[static pond]

is it lip

[glass sleet]

Also they DO NOT GIVE SKINS FOR FREE OR FOR GRINDING. Not even twitch drops. Seriously ever since I’ve gotten into Valorant, I legit think blizzard is very generous. Skins are cheaper, they give you free skins for challenges and drops. Constantly

[static pond]

i seen lol started doing this

[glass sleet]

Fixa

[static pond]

they made it harder to get skins

[glass sleet]

It’s bullshit

[static pond]

and to get champs

[glass sleet]

Their community doesn’t complain so they keep doing it

[static turret]

Is he a main supp

[glass sleet]

Overwatch bullied the devs into make monetary changes

[glass sleet]

He is but I’m joking idk fr

I just remember he had hair like that

[static pond]

prob cuz val and lol are like some of the legit job in counties

[glass sleet]

What

[static pond]

lol and val pro scene is seen as a real job by a lot

[static turret]

It could be

Why didn’t Lenny go liquid

I know they pay more

[glass sleet]

They didn’t want him

They have Tr33

[static pond]

he prob bored

[static turret]

?

Tr33 is very good

[static pond]

didt lenny say he would have retired

[static turret]

But Lenny is Lenny

[glass sleet]

Dude if tr33 isn’t on ssg then he’s definitely on Liquid

[static turret]

How about

Sign both tree and Lenny

[glass sleet]

Hoooooot take for you Lenny glazers but tr33 has the better genji

[static pond]

i think tree is with knife

[glass sleet]

Or was it the echo

No the genji

His echo is eh

[static turret]

Tr33 echo is demonic

He diffed tf out of kev

[glass sleet]

No it’s actually not

[glass sleet]

Kev is overrated

[static turret]

He played it in Stockholm

And was burning everyone

[glass sleet]

I wanna see him diff seicoe on echo

Anyway

Tr33 is more flexible anyway

So no, you do not want both on the same team.

[static turret]

He’s hyper flex yea

[glass sleet]

No one is more hyper flex than the goat himself, Stalk3r

[static turret]

Koreans are op tho

[glass sleet]

He’s better than proper

He is legit the definition of flexible

[static pond]

i dont htink stalker hyper flex

he hast played widow

or some other hs

[static turret]

He did

[static pond]

oh

[glass sleet]

He diffed Quartz on widow, played Cassidy, Ashe too

[static pond]

i only seen him on mccreee and soj

[glass sleet]

Oh yes and soj too

He beat CR on soj before she got her buffs

Then he swaps to echo and hard diffs heesang

[static turret]

Put tr33 on soj and Lenny on flex

If it becomes a Double flex meta your fine

[glass sleet]

Nah that’s not necessary

Also

Have them separate teams allows for two good teams instead

[static turret]

I’m thinking about the long run

Lan

[glass sleet]

You want them both on one team so we get the TD treatment again

[static turret]

They can farm na

[glass sleet]

Dude

[static turret]

We need a Korean competitor

[glass sleet]

Tr33 Knife is fine

[static turret]

Knife isn’t confirmed

[glass sleet]

If the rumors for TU were spot on than I think they might be true

[static turret]

Knife was rumored to be on vp

[glass sleet]

Anyone got the pic for the teams again

[static turret]

Not even in na

Pelican is still on zeta

So that can’t be true

[glass sleet]

Ssg so far looks accurate

[glass sleet]

How do you know

[static turret]

Ssg is prob true

[static turret]

Someone sent their official roster here earlier

[glass sleet]

Official?

Legit?

Not rumors?

[static turret]

Yea

Real@team

Posted 8hrs ago

On zeta twitter

[glass sleet]

Also I think TM is definitely looking to get a Korean tank

[glass sleet]

I don’t have twitter so I’ll take your word

[static turret]

They should

Hadi as solo tank …

Idk about it

[glass sleet]

Yeah…

I’m worried for TM

the dps line is amazing but irony is a question mark and the other 3 are…oof

[glass sleet]

They’ll snatch Donghak

[deft marlin]

Why doesn’t WHORU’s ring with the Mayhem not show up on his liquidpedia?

Unless im blind

[glass sleet]

Idk. I don’t really check those things

[static turret]

Maybe cus he didn’t play?

Idk

[deft marlin]

Is he not the only player with 3 OWL championships?

[static pond]

he has 2

best bench player

[static turret]

Smurf has 3

[glass sleet]

Smurf has 3

[deft marlin]

Thought he had 2 with the dragons

One with mayhem

[deft marlin]

Gotcha

[glass sleet]

Smurf’s third isn’t owl

It’s OWCS

Smurf has 3 championships

[static turret]

Still counts

Goat tank

[glass sleet]

Fr

And great personality

[deft marlin]

But Whoru does have 3 owl? Right?

[glass sleet]

Dude always smiling

Even when he’s being rolled by CR

[glass sleet]

No clue

Which team skins would you cop? 💭

X · Jan 18, 2025, 12:20 AM

T1 looks a loooooot like infernal

[deft marlin]

Twisted looks cool

[glass sleet]

And JQ looks like Vancouver

[deft marlin]

Yea

Virtus Pro looks like shock😭😭😭

[glass sleet]

Yeah that’s what I thought lol

Surely this isn’t the real colors

These are just copy of OWL skins

[deft marlin]

They are fan made

[glass sleet]

Oh thank god

They’re good colors and stuff but they’re definitely already like the owl

They need to be different

[deft marlin]

Ngl im willing to bet we won’t get team skins until stage 2

[glass sleet]

That’s fine

[deft marlin]

No way they have them made already

[glass sleet]

Gives people time to pick a team to cheer for

[cosmic socket]

we all getting junbin wrecking ball

[glass sleet]

I don’t even play ball

[cosmic socket]

yeah youre still getting junbin wrecking ball

just too much aura...

[glass sleet]

Aight…

[deft marlin]

Imma get Zeta Bap but Viol2t ain’t played Bap since like the outlaws 😭

Unc don’t got it no more

[glass sleet]

[deft marlin]

Zeta Echo for Pelican(pretty sure pelican hasn’t played echo in years)

[cosmic socket]

hadi aint on ssg anymore

[glass sleet]

Stalker is the best echo

[glass sleet]

We not getting for who was the best last season on the hero?

[deft marlin]

I really wish they’re was a purple team

[glass sleet]

You have LA GLADS

[deft marlin]

I still rock my ow1 LA glads bap for Shu

Yes but I can’t buy tokens anymore

[glass sleet]

I got the infernal for bap

[glass sleet]

You can’t?

[deft marlin]

Nah

They took it away

[glass sleet]

So why is the store still there?

[deft marlin]

For people who have left over coins

[glass sleet]

Oh

[deft marlin]

You just can’t buy new coins

Should’ve bought spitfire bap

[glass sleet]

It’s fine

Just get a TM skin

Pink is the closest thing to purple

[deft marlin]

Not the same thing tho😭

[glass sleet]

Yeah why same

[deft marlin]

I like the color and player

[glass sleet]

Be different

[cosmic socket]

i want owcs player icons

[deft marlin]

I don’t like anyone on twisted enough to get a skin for them

[glass sleet]

Oh

I hope they keep giving out OWCS skins

I need my OWCS skin for TRACER

and genji

[deft marlin]

Quartz maybe

[glass sleet]

Really? You don’t like Quartz?

[glass sleet]

Thought everyone loved him

[deft marlin]

Nah I do

[glass sleet]

He puts on perfume you know

Cologne

[deft marlin]

😭

[glass sleet]

Bro said what?

“I had 47 sprays” of a brand

I forgot the name

[deft marlin]

I hope they double down on like stage skins

Or like crowdfunding skins

[static pond]

why

[deft marlin]

The neon street bundle was trash imo

[static pond]

so

they support the prize pool

[glass sleet]

Hopefully

[static pond]

they should always be a thing

[deft marlin]

I mean like make more

Like keep doing it

[wise orbit]

he said double down

[glass sleet]

They take some of the org money and fund the event themselves

[static pond]

we dont need more

just better skins

[glass sleet]

BETTER MORE SKINS

[wise orbit]

im confused

[glass sleet]

you guys see the mercy skin in the ultimate bundle?

That would’ve made 2 million

[static pond]

u seen those prices

[glass sleet]

For prize money

I’m being chased igtg

[wise orbit]

they should make a cool rein or mercy skin for crowdfunding

we would get millions then

[deft marlin]

Wish they still did mvp skins

Can’t have shit

I wonder if they’ll change the UI to look like the teams color in the matches now

It’s one thing I miss for owl

Like how if the glads were playing they’re bullets and abilities were purple

[static pond]

i like to think dragon champ skin is lip mvp skin

i wish o2 was still a org

[deft marlin]

the sombra? def

[static pond]

ye

[deft marlin]

''Our nine Partners Teams will receive a portion of the proceeds from several in-game Team packs across the year, including branded in-game cosmetics for fans to show their support for their favorite org. Let’s introduce our Partner Teams!''

its says ''team packs"

is it possible that instead of skinning the whole ow roster for each team that they just sell a 5 character pack of the each teams most iconic played heroes?

would be lowkey lame asf if they did that

unless the skins were more than just the ow2 base model with the team skin and logo

[static pond]

they should add sprays too

There’s not enough good players for this

[viscid hatch]

Yipe

Nice to see skewed

T1 looks cool

[static turret]

Kr looks interesting

If only we get to see them at a lan

Cr and falcons gate keep everyone

[static pond]

Nothing really looks different

Looks like cr season again with zeta in second

[static turret]

Zeta 2nd?

They def couldn

Could

[viscid hatch]

But where is someone and Merit

[hybrid hollow]

Fearless think he could hide changing his name

[hybrid hollow]

Falcons rumors were limp 💔💔

And pelican is still in Korea so the team liquid rumors was wrong

[hazy marsh]

Praying they're on GenG

But probably on a CN org

[hazy marsh]

Can't say I agree, it's much more like OWWC away

[mortal cipher]

coaches aare also good

[static pond]

Prob

Makes sense since there close to kr

[mortal cipher]

from the rumors its not its

Top Dragon, Sauna, Mag, Keniel, and Crispy

[mortal cipher]

maybe BLG return

[hazy marsh]

That's why i said im praying

But now that I think about it Idk which would be a better outcome

[mortal cipher]

i mean Mer1t Somone would be the better Imports

[hazy marsh]

Yeah but I mean which team would be a better situation for them

[mortal cipher]

personally SKT

[hazy marsh]

SKT?

[mortal cipher]

SKTT1

Aka t1

T1

SK Telecom T1

but i did figure Viper would be on T1 considering the coach
and HDJ were great

[hazy marsh]

T1 roster was confirmed and they're not on there

[viscid hatch]

Who are they

[static pond]

Rush fleta

[viscid hatch]

Rush sus

[static pond]

Real

[mortal cipher]

Rush and Fleta
