CLT PathFinder

Bro is now with us. What gamertag should snag for him?

@lowstakesdre What did you do?

@lowstakesdre Only unnatural bluffs are AQo, 56s, A5 which most players looking at GTO for the first time find. This opens up again at 5/10 blinds but pretty unnatural. I’m fine getting bluffed for 30 bucks and saving my stack as well.

Best option here? The super small 3bet is really weird to me. Would suck to flat or 4bet and have UTG1 jam behind… Fold?

@markcecchini yep. mine all say they lurked for months without liking a thing. you ever ask how they found you?

out of all the clients I now serve because of this app *maybe* 2 of them have ever commented or liked something I’ve posted on here think about that for a second …everyone is watching, few are engaging

@JakeSucky every gears player i know learned it from a friend on a couch. does e-day fix that at all?

“Gears of War is a complex shooter, it’s intimidating, it’s got a high skill ceiling, its very hard for casuals to jump in” Nickmercs opens up on Gears of War: E-Day and the reality of a new GoW actually going mainstream

@TheVarsityGG most families i talk to hear scholarship and picture the whole bill. does the video get into award sizes?

High school students: Here's 4 reasons why you don't have a scholarship for esports (yet) Bookmark this for later 🔖

@cpgraham5 oct one is doable for me. same venue for both or are you splitting them?

@CLT_PathFinder LoL is October 17th and 18th OW is December 5th and 6th

One more quick bump before I begin reaching out to schools tomorrow morning. If you're interested in adding a LAN experience to your fall schedule for LoL or OW, send me a DM and I'll send details.

@JrCue smart. you got a payoff date in mind for the sofi one?

@CLT_PathFinder Honestly I only did it so I could qualify for the bonus.

This is not fake. Its my family's actual budget. I've dropped my 401k cont to 5% till we pay off our bad debt. We're not special. No college degrees. Still have one kid left in the house. We will be millionaires one day. Small town life makes this possible.

@CSunfortunate he did the job and the roster call still was never his to make. thats the actual risk of going pro right there

biggest prospects at G2’s academy loaned to MIBR completely destroy the competition However MIBR doesn’t sign him Sent back to G2 G2 Ares is doing really well so they stick with the current roster now he’s just benched in the academy team 😭😭😭

@dagr8reset @munchgod3000 orphan 401ks are everywhere. worth logging in once just to see what its actually sitting in

@munchgod3000 If it makes you feel better I never transferred my 401k from my first job out of college to my current job

I’m so sick I didn’t understand what a 401k was until I was 25 fr boy my ass would’ve had at least 30-50k right now if I did know earlier

@IHOLDSHIFT @G2esports @anzietywz @CytheTV @bigman_live 17th to champs without blowing up the roster is the rare version of this. most orgs would have fired everybody in october

Could not be happier for @G2esports @anzietywz @CytheTV + @bigman_live This is such an unreal story to go from arguably the laughing stock of 2025 to still trust the process, stick together, and be crowned champs one year later. Unbelievable. Congrats gents! Black Ops 7 🔜

@Orbital_Casting 9 concurrent on a no pull pack opening means the chat is there for you not the pulls. thats the harder thing to build

People apparently liked watching me pull absolutely nothing 😅 thank you to everyone for dropping by!!!!

@TheC0d3Meister self promoing in somebody elses chat is handing out flyers at another guys wedding

My two biggest streaming pet peeves: when people self promo their own emotes in another stream or chatting in another stream while they are live.

@aakashgupta people have 200 hours logged with those soundtracks before they ever buy a ticket. no other orchestra gets that head start

Classical music has never paid for itself. Ticket sales cover roughly a third of an American orchestra's budget, and that's the healthy ones. Since 2010, orchestras in Philadelphia, Louisville, Honolulu, and Syracuse have all filed for bankruptcy. Then gamers started buying tickets. The model was always subsidy. Beethoven lived on an annuity from three Viennese aristocrats. Wagner had a Bavarian king paying his debts. The modern version swapped princes for donors and endowments, but the arithmetic never changed. The music on stage loses money and someone rich covers the gap. Video game concerts broke that arithmetic. The Legend of Zelda's Symphony of the Goddesses sold out most of a world tour. Final Fantasy VII Rebirth sold out the Royal Albert Hall. Sonic filled London's Barbican for three straight nights. Same players, same halls. Different composer names on the program, and suddenly the box office covers the cost. The audience explains why. The average classical subscriber is near retirement age and the field loses old attendees faster than it gains young ones. The Zelda crowd shows up in their teens and twenties, some in costume. A Royal Philharmonic poll found more young people now discover orchestral music through games than through live concerts. So the annoyance is aimed at the wrong people. Koji Kondo and Nobuo Uematsu built the biggest onboarding funnel orchestral music has ever had. The 19-year-old hearing a 90-piece orchestra play Zelda tonight is the only plausible Mahler subscriber of 2046. Haydn needed a prince to fund a symphony. Zelda fills the hall at face value. In 300 years of orchestral music, this is the first time the audience paid the whole bill.

@VWAudiPorsche @stockmom 5 shares and the company plan is still the whole starter kit. what did that 3M turn into?

@stockmom I love early Monday Mornings and always will. 46 years of being in The Stock Market. The Best way to achieve FU Money status. Before anyone makes any assumptions.... I started out with buying 5 Shares of 3M and then signing up for The Company 401K plan and a WSJ subscription.

Is this the start of the August relief rally we've been looking for?

@CfMatzke @dantypo first time seeing FICA on a stub is a rite of passage nobody warns you about

@dantypo After a youthful series of odd jobs where, “I’ll give you $20 to…” meant you walked away with $20, the first paycheck less taxes, SS, and Medicare, hits different.

I started understanding why people try to reduce their tax bill when I was around $14 an hour. So no. I’m not surprised that rich people do it. And if you’ve taken credits and deductions, you do too.

@billskarsgards the retirement chunk coming out before you ever see it is the whole trick. you never miss it

just got my first paycheck and it’s only $4.1k after taxes and retirement are taken out it’s so joever for me

@cpgraham5 club programs scrapping is the fun bracket honestly. when is the invitational?

@CLT_PathFinder OW for sure. LoL is a bit more of a slog to find programs that still field teams and feel they are competitive. Our LoL invitational will be a lot of club programs.

@Vodible 2019 to a mid season final is a wild jump. the small events are the only real reps

I feel like controlled chaos is a good way to describe it lol. So many moving parts with things changing on the fly to adapt to but I feel we all handled it well. Glad I had a few smaller events this year to help prep for it since my last studio lan gig was back in 2019. This was so much bigger in scale by comparison. Have a lot of personal notes on things to improve for myself next time to make it easier and be better prepared for the chaotic nature of it. For my first time doing the role at a LAN though I don’t think it could have gone any better honestly 😁

Was an honor to work the #MarvelRivals Mid Season Finals for Ignite 2026! Forever blessed that I was trusted to work as a dedicated Analyst for the event and hope I did y’all proud ❤️ Huuuge shoutout to @ACozyGamer and @Tetcher who kept the ship sailing all week alongside @DanGaskin, @iRunShibb, @DogmanDusttin, @LEGDAY, @RyanCentral who were so easy to work with on desk and brought the heat on commentary while feeling the heat in the arena (LA is HOT). Another thank you to @MarvelRivals, @zingodude, @RivalsEsports, @NetEaseGames_EN, our production team at GameSquare, EFG, and the freelance crew for putting this whole event together. This was the best Marvel Rivals Esports event yet! Last but not least thank YOU to the fans, players, staff, and marvel rivals family who continue to support this esports scene and game. You are the real heroes who deserve all the praise for your continued support. Stage 2 is coming soon but in the meantime I will be doing my own coverage of MRC, making more content, helping out with events, and more so stay tuned! Thank you all again for your continued support. Was so nice to meet all that I could at this event and hope to see even more of you at the next one!
