Drew Levin is on vacation (see pinned post)

signing off for the next 10 days to spend some time with my family. if you @ me between now and the 30th and it isn’t a reply to this tweet, I’m not gonna see it. thank you all for caring so much. I’ll be back in a while with - hopefully - some sick videos of ocean creatures.

@ReiDoRetorno @Elolesio_ My anticheat team informs me that you have boosted accounts between each of your penalties. The third strike penalty for boosting accounts is a permanent ban on your main account. I genuinely wish that you had not continued with your choices to boost other accounts.

@drewlevin @Elolesio_ Hi Drew, I’m confused about my ban. I got 3 days, then 14 days (which was later said to be a mistake, not boosting). I haven’t broken any rules since, so why did I get a permanent ban after a third false warning? Could you please review my case? look the ticket #122264279

Best Garen Brazil, Rei Do Retorno, currently at 1862 lp, was permanently banned for allegedly boosting It was his first punishment and he got perma'd, do content creators receive some bigger punishments or why did he get insta perma? @drewlevin pls help 🙏🙏🙏

@RMikael3953 @Elolesio_ ty for your service mikael

@drewlevin @Elolesio_

@evankinney ❤️

@drewlevin 🫡

not my parents asking for a full market analysis of the epic layoffs and associated implications both while I’m on vacation and while not knowing what Fortnite is as a game

@realsjokz thank you real sjokz

@drewlevin Thought this was a parody account at first lol

had some really good dessert tonight

@tugberk nope you got it

@drewlevin Is POG = Passion fruit, Orange and Guava or Google lying to me, again?

@apokeu @AqasiaIsNuclear @MugiwaraEddie oh well in that case carry on

@drewlevin @AqasiaIsNuclear @MugiwaraEddie i believe they are both attempting what the kids call "a joke"

sorry I leave work for a few days and G2 Esports fully sweeps GenG in a bo5? I’m going back to bed, my dreams are getting way too specific

@AqasiaIsNuclear @MugiwaraEddie it is extremely weird to go to someone who has made it clear they’re on vacations and demand that they do work

@drewlevin @MugiwaraEddie dont be a weirdo pal, just get your top dawgs on this issue stat. the people need clash. i am the people. word to my baby mama

@MugiwaraEddie damn sounds like some people who still have access to their work computers will have to take care of that

@drewlevin CLASH IS NOT WORKING

@Sheepswoolly yeah that part is very understandable and very specific to the last 2-3 months (rather than structural), but it does sound like there are a number of more structural criticisms that people want us to address so trying to get those down clearly

@drewlevin Lastly a "feeling" of unfairness. People at the start of season got better lp gains and gained a lot of lp as headstart, but now you maybe face negative gains and so you feel you have to grind and grind more just to catch up to people who play 1 or 2 games just to not decay

is this just what’s going on rn for masters players or am I missing an important part of the conversation/picture?

@DumLeaguePup oh fascinating if I see someone who I think is worse than me in a higher or more successful spot I experience two things: 1. “what did they figure out that I haven’t yet?” and 2. “I think I’m better than them so time to prove it”

@drewlevin comparing yourself to others is and will always be a very big thing in competitive games, and seeing someone who you think is much worse than you (most ppl thin this cuz of ego or prev rank etc) then it'll demotivate them to play or be more frustrating

@RectalAnarchy69 @CardSharkRoam what is the emotional and thought process you have when you consider the process of trying to climb?

@drewlevin @CardSharkRoam I got top 90 challenger a month ago. I stopped playing cuz I felt like playing Gwent. Currently at masters 150lp since I decayed and decided to play on a different account Looking at the cutoffs even in a server where it's not as bad as NA/EUW, I'm unmotivated to try and climb
