Dear
@vctpacific
fans,
Do not get baited by people saying that Pacific is the best.
How many times must we experience heartbreak to learn our lesson, cursing our own kin with the hype?
Pacific teams are just 50/50 teams. They win or they lose.
NOTHING MORE NOTHING LESS
Imo Shinobi buff is real for
@GlobalEsportsIn
- not only do they now have cleaner strats, they're even using their aggressive tendencies with much more purpose
Huge improvements and props to Shinobi and the players so far!
For anyone that missed it
yesterday was F4Q's last match, and they are disbanding and going their separate ways
Not sure if the brand will still continue or not, but the roster as we know it end their VCT journey here T_T
What an achievement for all of them though!

Looks like the pronunciation of
@OfficialXETA
's tag is in question
First off, yes in Korea it's read jetta but it would actually be closer to jedta since there is no soft T in Korean.
Secondly, it also seems like xeta himself has approved of both pronunciations so nbd
-The end of a chapter-
as some of you may have heard, last week was my last week
@ESL
- almost 4 years in Burbank, and too many memories, learnings, and experiences to list!
What's next? I'll be on the freelance market for a bit, seeing what new changes are on the horizon =)
I get it, it's fun to pile on
but while it IS true that GE had t3xture,
it's also true that DK had him on duelist for TWO YEARS before that, losing to players who never got into

your point isn't what you think it is
Last time I commentated Korean League of Legends I was solocasting 2(3?) days of 3 BO3's...I was losing my mind
This time I get to make

Nothing terrible, I just had no expectations.
But wow, the man has impressed with his calls AND his frags despite the losses
Waiting for the moment it all clicks together for GE
It's an honor to be the voice welcoming everyone to

Champions Seoul!
For any teams or content creators that would like assistance navigating Seoul or would like to collaborate, I would be happy to lend a hand where I can - let me know!
A lot has been said, a lot has been unsaid, all we have to say is - it’s time to prove again.
Welcome to GE; On behalf of SA we all look forward to all your experience and all your antics!❤️

was on point today and RRQ still makes it so close. That shows their current power level and potential.
Unfortunate we can't witness their growth in playoffs, but absolutely keep your eyes on them for LCQ
GGs!

@nemesis_lol
I still remember watching DLift playing orianna in normals for fun in...S3? And suddenly going OH NO WONDER SHE HURTS, HER AUTOS SCALE OFF AP??
This is...
This is kinda sweet
Not everyone has to love every esport at an equal level, but it's great to see people understanding the appeal and value it can bring!
Getting to commentate SEN vs KRU for the KR audience was one of the best treats
It also killed my voice and I have to commentate again today.
@VisionStrikers
please don't give me a heart attack 😫
A big part of this has gotta be stability and accessibility. I've rarely had issues watching stuff on YouTube when abroad (aside from any regionally DMCA'd stuff) - Twitch on the other hand is a hit or miss =/
of that of the 4 million viewers, more people were watching LoL Worlds live on YouTube than on Twitch, just as they were for the Fortnite black hole event
YouTube quietly making moves to get closer to Twitch, and from what I've heard they have some bigger news to share soon
This isn't just a misconception in the FGC either. Because we see so many games these days (think last 3-5yrs) marketing themselves as esports out the gate, we think that's how it all started.
Funny, I recall most of those ones actually flopping, and the organic ones sustaining
Starcraft took off in Korea without the help of Blizzard. CS and Quake carried PC esports in the early days and Valve/id Software couldn't have given less of a shit
Nintendo didn't intend for Smash to be a competitive game or esport. but it is. and now Nintendo should support it
PRX vs RRQ was really satisfying!
RRQ still got to show a lot of strengths. I think if we saw pre-shanghai PRX things might have been different.
But PRX continue to show that they have truly evolved to be more stalwart than ever
Excited for both of in playoffs gg!
#VCTPacific
All this believing finally paid off!
You can tell the team worked hard for this. Across the board - more engagement effort, difficult roster moves and improvement each week
Honestly might be the first ever anything I am a fan of, and damn right I'm glad I chose RRQ
🎉 CONGRATS
Achievement Unlocked! PLAYOFFS!!
It's been a long journey, a lot of hardwork but, we've finally qualified for our first playoff appearance!
Our journey doesn't end here as this is the start for RRQ to achieve greatness.
We're happy to finally have the opportunity but we
I'm sure there's more news to follow but...in a country where verbal and physical abuse has been such a big public issue in schools and workplaces especially in the last decade...cvMax being found 'guilty' of abuse in GRF is a big yikes, esp with that storyarc...
Man, what a full day of League of Legends in
#LCK
Shoutout to
@Atlustv
for the carry and making me feel at home after such a long time =) Hope you all enjoyed the matches!
ITT: ppl responding from the wrong viewpoint
It's much easier to get someone excited about watching SC2/CSGO/FGC withOUT playing the games than any moba type
On the flipside, it is way easier to get them to TRY moba type games, therein possibly sparking an interest to watch
these are games that even if you don't play them yourself or watch esports in general you can relatively understand what's going on
League of Legends and Dota as MOBA games still have an element of 'i dont know what just happened', and also lol Overwatch
GGs to
@zetadivision
- insane growth, both as a team and individuals. They were absolutely the stronger team today on a lot of fronts. I wonder what more they will accomplish even beyond masters
Man I prepared this and everything for TvirusLuke's redemption arc at the second half of Ascent =(
GG's for DRG tho, impressive fight today, LOVE to see it
#VALORANTMasters
What an exciting Haven from
@DRX_VS
and
@GlobalEsportsIn
holy moly
This had everything you would want. Nailbiting clutches, great round reads, explosive Jetts...the whole lot!
Time for Split!!!

I've been staring at PRX comps/VODs the past few days and my brain is constantly ping-ponging between "They are geniuses" vs "They turned their brains off"

It's never easy being an RRQ fan...
But we've finally made it to our first playoff appearance!
Time to take on the Korean titans tomorrow in

Most notable:
@T1
are locked in with today's win! (more on that below)
@teamrrqofficial
can still lock in their own destiny for playoffs as well
Also...I mean Korea's gotten better about it so maybe it's not as bad as the past but for a Korean ruling to find that the verbal abuse 'was at a level that could not be considered humane'...that's serious.
After knowing of him for a while, I only got to meet him a handful of times the last few years and he never wavered. The man was a positive force to so many people despite his own circumstances - he had heart, and that's not easy. Thanks for everything John
I still can't believe GENG won
#VALORANTMasters
last night
Yes they seemed good enough but..
From Pacific always falling short, to PRX overtaking Pacific, to all the 'good but not great' stories for every individual on the team (including coaches)
It's just so surreal 🥹
It's been a while, but SUPER excited to be back - and to have it be at TI, wouldn't have it any other way. And to work with all these other lovely hosts T_T
Hope y'all are ready to have some fun!
