@ShyoWager@AriVLRNT The financial prospects of the EWC in the long term is more sustainable than the VC era of eSports. I think it’s great that some orgs are smart enough to take advantage of every revenue streams that exist.
@CartelWifey@zapatas_mom Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but based on attractive features polled in surveys across the west and east, she doesn’t posses the conventional features people find attractive. She seems to keep herself healthy and fit, so worst case she’s not anything at all
@GenshinUniverse Another Res Shred isn’t all that amazing for Skirk, since Escoffier Res shred quite a bit already and res shred is multiplicative not additive. A hydro Bennet or hydro Nicole would be a must pull
@PlacidBala Eh, the viewership of Valorant when a Chinese team is in a deep run is higher than CS, but neither has a Chinese team, than CS is higher. It’s just that CS will never have a Chinese team go deep, but Val sometimes does
@ShyoWager I agree, it’s just too much over a video game, but I do have to say, Chinese is a high context language and the auto translation feature just verbatim translates. Kill in the language doesn’t have the same weight like it does in English
@ElevatedSpeaks The impact is they qualify for a tournament that moves their accounting to solvency. EWC is very important for money and money is rare enough as it is in esports. “You cant quit a full time job to perfect a hobby”
@AkamaruVal@Suficently_Alve The one sneaky solution was what BLG academy did, sending Kassiely to “XLB” and having them compete as a mostly Taiwanese team in APAC tier 2. Then forfeit before qualifying to preserve regional status. EDG can do this for Salut as well
@AkamaruVal@Suficently_Alve U18 chinese gamers cannot play more than 3 hours of multiplayer games a week by law, so from a tier 2 perspective, not a single player in it can be U18, whereas other regions allows 16 year olds to start playing tier 2; it’s inherently an unsolvable problem
@ElevatedSpeaks Listen in to XLG’s comms, we got broken English being spoken, Chinglish, Chinese etc. how the hell do you make fast and decisive decisions under those scenarios?
@ElevatedSpeaks Hvoya is a good coach and good at anti-stratter, in domestic play, constant scrims allows you to understand your opponents behavior to a tee, covering XLG’s weaknesses. There is less unknown variables, making it easier for players who have worse snap judgment and instinct
@aeaiyo Insanely bizarre cope from Japanese people in the comments, by the way, China isn’t even the biggest hater of Japan from East Asia, Korea hates Japan way more
