So PW have managed to: - Invite a team who are ranked too high via a Valve enabled exception (FaZe) - Convert 2x Asia qualifier to 2x Chinese qualifier meaning there is no path for non-Chinese teams to attend now - Removed a qualifier slot from NA in favour of 1x EU qual slot - New Americas qual in Brazil so it's essentially an SA qual - Removed a global invite in favour of adding 1x more EU qual - Invite teams from July VRS before even announcing their additional info meaning they could just cut off invites whenever they felt So now there will be 4 Chinese teams vs global teams, seems pretty horrible that an organiser can target their own specific sub-region so heavily whilst completely ignoring every other sub-region. How can you allow such an event to even exist @CounterStrike ? Granting exceptions left and right and letting TO's just do whatever they please whilst systematically negatively impacting other sub-regions who are planning their entire lives around having slots available that no longer are available. You are actively allowing TO's to harm your global ecosystem.

Nobody cares outside of t1 CS unfortunately, but being someone who played so much t2 CS and got fucked over multiple times I feel like I have to speak out Some of these clips against @ENCE are disgusting. Players flanking instantly in places whilst their crosshairs are absolutely all over the place in 5v5 situations where the decision making makes no sense whatsoever. Players who look like level 6 Faceit making the most incredible reads in key moments to find round deciding space and frags We need some common sense going on here. What reasoning is there to be flanking with your crosshair aiming almost at the sky if it's not to look somewhere other than at your monitor? In these high risk moments of pushing into opponent territory why are these nobodies acting as though they are unkillable? And then they'll go on to get 13-2'd in their next games and do it all over again when they are underdogs It can't keep happening. Genuine rosters die when these losses happen, I've made roster changes in the past when we've lost to blatent cheaters and lost all confidence in the way we play due to how many gaps were perfectly exploited at all moments We have to do better. Don't let these players profit from cheating and match fixing. We NEED tier 2 CS to produce talent, and we can't be losing talent because they get caught up in match fixing when they don't know better and get caught up in the wrong crowd when they are vulnerable. At some point something has to change and it feels like we are going nowhere With no player union and ESIC absent we aren't together in this at all. Where do we go from here to fix this? Check out the clips from @cl_fisico if you want to see them for yourself, they are laughable to players with experience

Before any map pool changes happen. Mr12 and the economy needs to be revaluated. Increasing the money of the Galil or adding a 5th loss bonus around 3900 - 4000 could help balance things out. My personal opinion is that mr15 was better and they found what really worked.

I agree @CounterStrike But then you, yourselves, need to take an active involvement in overseeing this. Between granting uneccessary exceptions, allowing events that completely disregard the TOR and specifically granting ranked status to events that should not have it, your own negligence towards "standardising community events" has been below the quality we would expect these past 6 months. Now you've removed all wiggle room for teams to qualify from slightly lower ranks and made it solely about the ranking which can be abused semi-freely, are you going to finally step up and take a more active role in monitoring and maintaining the VRS ecosystem?

Anyone willing to help me with a little passion project? Looking for someone to help me fact check the CS tournaments that happened in ZA each year from 2018 till now. I.e. a list of all the tournaments each year per year. I am 99% sure I’ve forgotten one or two

It is borderline impossible to grind rank. @CounterStrike you fully closed down the entire system, and you are killing organisations not already ranked top30. We went through 6 open qual games vs multiple paid teams. How is anyone supposed to get up, when almost nothing is ranked
Richard Landström@Xizt

Why does the TO's decide what tournaments/qualifiers should be counted for VRS or not? @BLASTPremier @HLTVorg @CounterStrike 🙂

@Lichl0rd @ESLCS @G2NiKo @Maj3r_ Also you said "Kyxsan can't easily get off of site without giving away an isolated 1 vs 1", but he can quite easily fall to mini pit and then magisk can play lane and kyxsan can swing off his contact while he crosses to bomb, just think so many better options than what he did

@4urora_cs @ESLCS @G2NiKo @Maj3r_ If kyxsan had stepped once off bomb it would have been a 2 vs 1, he throws the smoke while magisk is still alive. Something to keep in mind if magisk just hides Kyxsan can't easily get off of site without giving away an isolated 1 vs 1. Simple/Predictable is good in high pressure
