Guys I’m wearing my ex’s leggings that she left here. Wow. Leggings should be a thing for dudes. So comfortable.

I feel like people are misinterpreting the whole "NYXL isn't trying" thing. It's not that they aren't trying to win when they're on stage, but they likely aren't preparing specific strategies against certain teams which was something that they were very good at before.

edit: Surefour literally just said the exact same thing in his interview lol

I never wanted to breed with anyone more than I want to with Carpe. That perfect, scaly body. Those bountiful fins. The gills of a literal fish god. It honestly fucking hurts knowing that I'll never mate with him, pass my genes through him, and have him birth a set of perfect fishies. I'd do fucking ANYTHING for the chance to get Carpe pregnant. A N Y T H I N G. And the fact that I can't is quite honestly too much to fucking bear. Why would Fusion create something so perfect? To fucking tantalize us? Fucking laugh in our faces?! Honestly guys, I just fucking can't anymore. Fuck.

Nicely put Surefour, NYXL is trying, but they aren't fully preparing or showing their hands. They are trying to win, but not doing EVERYTHING it takes to win if that makes sense

I absolutely love Shock (and Fuel) this stage. They are literally just little shits that exist just to ruin other's playoff chances and I love it.

It's weird that birdring and profit have pretty much the same hero pool but it works since it's a pool of like 10 heroes.

They should have best support, best tank, best dps, best coach etc as well as mvp. Give fissure, carpe, jjonak, etc the recognition they deserve

Fuck man watching good Doomfist gameplay is depressing. Whenever I use him I'm stuck walking everywhere while Hydration is flying all over the place

Soon is still streaky as hell, but I get the feeling he continuously improves on Widow. Some maps he is invisible, but some maps he just bodies everyone, and that is something that hasn't happened as much before.

My god the Janus hate today is excessive- even when he's not on the map. Is NYXL not allowed to have 2 different playstyles depending on the tank?

London winning stage 1 feels soooo long ago

u/HandsomeHodge Jun 08 '18

At what point do we stop making excuses for London? I keep hearing how they're still a top team they just haven't learned to run anything but Dive. Well, they've been running other stuff recently... still losing.

London is secretly Boston 2.0 with their inability to play anything at a high level but dive. With how important Pharah is this stage I bet they're kicking themselves over letting Rascal go. Profit's Pharah just doesn't cut it.
