@_qXotic_ @okiaimx Yeah but imo it's a stupid ass reason lol

The silhouette of the Warden is so different vs the rifles that it's easy to recognize on the ground, enemy gun sounds are always set to default regardless of what skins the enemy is using.

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Shaiko21_ @okiaimx lets say the odds for one skin to come to your shop is .5% nothing will change if you add the RGX right off the bat and the odds changes to .45%

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Shaiko21_ @okiaimx I mean the fomo 4 slot shop system is definitely shit but imo it makes more sense to make people buy for example this RGX skin for the Warden's release, make ton of people pay for the skin plus RP to upgrade it, then add fillers after. 1k+ skins the odds are already shit lol

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL literally just nitpicking at this point.

him saying he hated going to BR could still mean the things I've said previously since it could also mean he hates travelling TO BR.

I mean if you want to victimize yourself you do you. It happened in Lock/IN and its happening rn. GLHF

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL Also to be clear, I hate mid-tournament travelling for tournaments. I remember when LoL did it a few years ago for Worlds and it sucked. The VCT NA teams could've travelled to NYC/Toronto and I would still say that it's bad.

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL Pretty sure he would've hated travelling if the last part of the playoffs is in Alaska I still dont get the why we're quick to point out xenophobia instead of understanding that travelling is just hectic for the pros

Can we treat pros as humans before we victimize ourselves?lol

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL At the very least you wouldn't see the VN/TH community act like victims on twitter 🤷‍♂️

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL Yes I know

So if one player says that he hates travelling to BR mid-playoffs why do people call it xenophobia?

If a KR player says he hates travelling to Vietnam/Thailand pretty sure you wouldn't see headlines on how that player is xenophobic

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL Yes and again, BR crowds are amazing but also disadvantageous if you're an away team. that "pressure" you are saying is also giving direct/indirect info for the team you're cheering for. Again as spectators it's not bad but as players for away teams it sucks gameplay-wise

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Luxz18_ @PolymarketVAL afaik visa issues for SA players usually happen at the start of the season and rarely in the middle.

Also I've rarely seen NA crowds get too biased to the point that they are labelled as 6th men. If anything whenever I watch NA games they just cheer both teams 🤷‍♂️

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@PolymarketVAL Imagine travelling on the most important regional playoffs on the year, you're not qualified yet, you do media for Riot, you need to prac, you're playing on stage with one of the best crowds but is also notorious for being a 6th man if you face off against their team.

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@PolymarketVAL They instantly gravitate towards xenophobia instead of the fact that travelling countries in the middle of playoffs is just impractical for the players themselves since they could use the travel time for match prep or even Champs prep like fixing their visa, etc.
tbh it's stupid

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@Astroholick Profile is not private though

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@LevialorantBR I've been hating on Riot recently but in this case I think it's just skins evolving over time.

The Mystbloom was released the year after the Champs 2023 Kunai was released. I think after that the next Champs bundles even this year has gimmicks instead of vanilla animations

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@PolymarketVAL Riot CN is the one developing Valorant Mobile and that explains a lot.

Just like how FFGS has better skins than TFT Global.

Also the practice range on Mobile is way better than whatever garbage we're stuck with on PC for 6yrs.

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@RocketBullets Looks nice with the champion's aura but without it the phantom looks like a Premium-Ultra edition skin and that's me being positive.

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@valohabercisi That is how Wingman sounds like?

I'm sorry but I'm joining Sliggy on the Wingman hate now.

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@MercifulOmens Now they're adding one way for us to see meaningful, visual progression and we have to start from 0 just like a level 1 account I could make today? Yeah that's just a huge slap in my face as a day 1 player tbh

[@dBanana @bananafps1]

@MercifulOmens Tbh I dont really care much about cosmetics but it's the feeling of progression that imo Valorant has been lacking for a long time.

They said they will look for avenues to add rewards to accounts levels. They said that 2021 and 2026 we still have nothing
