This week, I started my new position as the Tournament Operations Manager at BLAST on R6.
I’m excited to see everyone in Montreal in a few weeks to enjoy the Six Invitational before kicking off the 2023 season!
No one is having insightful and thoughtful discussion on this platform anymore, because the people who shit and piss on the walls who usually get removed from the town square, now have a loudspeaker instead.
Twitter 2.0 is objectively shit. And it smells like it too.
Have you ever been talking with someone particularly insightful and thought, you should have the freedom to speak your mind. We all should.
Enter Twitter 2.0.
Today we announce a global partnership with
@NEOM
, an ambitious project that includes building a major esports ecosystem in the heart of what will be the new future of living!
We talk about the future of esports, so let's get to it.

Taken directly from Blizzard's "What We Stand For" page.
Iconic that he has donated to McConnell, an act that stands counter to everything Blizzard say they "stand for", from the very head of the company.
@TheChowderhead
A Practice Range feature isn't as important as players make it out to be, because 99% of them will just warm-up by queueing up for a ranked match instead.
@BikiniBodhi
To be honest I think it's totally deserved, and as a verified account you should expect it.
Great, now that I have your attention and only a select few can see this, when is the Bikini body-pillow coming?
Also, for everyone who raised questions/concerns when we took away SI Points from Major LCQ's.
Being unable to discuss it was killing me but -
SI LCQ's are back. The road to SI is more open than ever before.
And with the pack-down complete-
My first SI is finally over. What an event and what an experience. Siege has changed my life in a way I don’t think I will ever be able to put into words.
Thank you.
League Operations and Admin is the only career in esports I'd consider industry specific. I also wouldn't say it's teachable in an education setting, it needs real experience to learn.
Esports degrees ain't it. Join a degree that's relevant and applicable to your field instead.
@TheChowderhead
Imagine Fluke's position - SI not even finished, killed it all event.
No chance to be at the August major because it's in a country that considers your existence a crime.
Nice.
ESPORT ADMINS!
I am looking to expand the Admin freelancer database for R6
This database will be used long-term, but we are very interested right now in the following:
Admins based in Europe with language skills in -
BR Portuguese
Korean
Japanese
@TheChowderhead
Also - Let's be honest here. The new design is 100x more accurate. You think the US military wouldn't take every opportunity to slap the uniform and full branding on an AI hologram?
The integrity of competitors in R6 is a core pillar that holds the R6 Esports Ecosystem up. While it is always disappointing when this integrity is compromised, we will always strive to uphold it through thorough investigation and appropriate action.
Reminder that recent examples of “Peak Male Performance” from people like
@Wei2Yue
and
@mrodmma
have one important thing in common.
Both of them play Siege.

I literally get asked if I can get their kids FIFA coins anytime I mention my work to family friends and it's awful. I hate it.
Stage 2 is officially ended.
This has been one of the most challenging years of my life, and it’s not an understatement to say Stage 2 was not just way more challenging than Stage 1 but likely one of the most challenging competitive stages of R6 over 8 years for TOps.
@BikiniBodhi
Bikini: Nooo defender's are too favoured right now!!! Get rid of Jagers ADS!! Playing attack is so baaaaad right now!
Also Bikini: Ha ha clash shield go brrrrr
@BikiniBodhi
I'm sorry this happened to you man.
I have the same opinion on abusers as I do false accusers. Jail time. Anyone who knowingly tries to ruin someone's life like that is a criminal. The damage it does to the accused as well as real victims is disgusting.
@BikiniBodhi
Women can be as much, if not more, abusive in relationships, because men often have little to no recourse or escape.
"How can a woman be abusive if men are stronger" - if you defend yourself at all, you potentially go to jail. Nice.
Another one, but a very different one. A first collaboration between
@R6esport
and
@BLASTEsports
Thanks to all attendees and people that showed up online. I've seen so many familiar faces again and hope to see you all again for many years ❤️
Love always wins

@BikiniBodhi
Imagine thinking that teams don't do prep on all the teams in their group for the biggest event of the year.
To be honest, he's insulted Empire there more than he has Fnatic.
Announcement time: Today I started at
@Challengermode
as the new FIFA Program Manager!
Super excited for 2021 and what the future holds! Feels so good to be back in the wheel again and with a fresh start for 2021, let's make this year great!
Previous work account officially disabled today, and my hand-off all complete.
End of an era. Start of a new one.
Blast R6 starts Friday. Let's get it gamers.
