Pretty hip guy

@HLTVorg This shit is going to get boring. I don't even say this as a hater, Zywoo is the GOAT, but we need another team (That's not falcons) to consistently split wins with Vitality

ZywOo claims the MVP at IEM Rio 2026 hltv.org/news/44420/zyw…

Yeah, so basically the current prevailing schizo internet theory is that AI nerds have destroyed the internet and created infinite spam. The advertisement goons are now incapable of determining who is a bot and who is an actual human. The advertisement goons no longer want to pay as much to social media networks. Social media networks, in full blown panic of losing potential revenue, decided to lobby governments saying "we gotta protect the kids! ID everyone to protect the kids from pedophiles!". The social media networks know this doesn't really protect kids. But, it does two things (and a third accidentally). 1. They now can identify who is human and who is AI slop machine, or enough to appease the advertisement goons 2. Advertising to children is a general no-no from politicians, or something, so with ID verification they can say with confidence they're not advertising to children because it's been ID verification. Basically, they can weed out the children and focus on advertising to adults 3. The feds can now tell who is human and who is AI slop. This inadvertently helps them with tracking people and serving fresh daily dumps of propaganda, or whatever they want to do. It's a win-win-win for advertisers, social media networks, the government, and any business which does data collections. It fucks over everyone else. Chat, I'm not going to lie to you. This is an extremely good conspiracy schizo theory and I unironically believe it.

@handsyharry98 @ChemlokNA @_GideonGraves @AerialLiz It was during his autofill to challenger thing, pretty sure ADC had by far the worst win ratio of all roles and it was negative most of the run. His ADC only challenge went pretty smooth (when Corki was still the best champion in the game)

@ChemlokNA @_GideonGraves @AerialLiz Didn't Drut have negative winrate on adc for a long stretch of games?

Last time we had this type of thing was Dante getting stuck in d4-e1, no? 🤔

@AloisNL Top and ADC mains fighting over who has a larger victim complex

I believe ADC Mains are professional victims. After voicing my opinion I was challenged to a Bet, which my ego obviously had to accept. IM GOING TO PROOF ADC IS NOT A HARD ROLE IN 500 GAMES HERE ARE THE RULES AND PUNISHMENTS, SEE YOU ON STREAM: twitch.tv/alois_NL

@launders Because it's a non-tangible description. What is x-factor? S1mple is not better in most important matches if you look at his major finals history, both of them carried bad rosters but only dominated with top tier riflers too so it's not a 1v9 thing. What? Clips farming?

I've critisized s1mple for being toxic, donk for falling apart mentally at the major and zywoo for not having much x-factor compared to some of the greats but its only ever zywoo where people will accuse you of "hating" him Why is that?

@OliouWinter @Mirriee1 @EWC_Extra Massive cope. Zywoo would average 1.70 against teams S1mple struggles against right now

@SharpChestPain @Mirriee1 @EWC_Extra Well when s1mple played against zywoo he was the one whe dennied him the best performance of any tournament plus cs2 is shit game and in tier 3 where you have like 60 teams it is harder to be consistent when you have mr13 rather than playing against the same 10 teams

The Mount Rushmore of Esports. The 4th one is up to you 🙌

@OliouWinter @Mirriee1 @EWC_Extra False. He was playing dota and drinking too much, now he's rusty and averages 1.20 against absolute no-names

@SharpChestPain @Mirriee1 @EWC_Extra You just know nothing about cs s1mple has much stroneger work ethic and now wants to win more

@Vengeldzn @GavinDion2 @satieguide @TeamVitalityCS @EWC_Extra You could cut out a whole major out of Zywoo's current run and it would still be more impressive than S1mple's tbh. S1mple is a what if and zywoo is a real winner with GOAT mental

@GavinDion2 @satieguide @TeamVitalityCS @EWC_Extra zywoo is definitely the king right now, no debate. but when we talk overall franchise GOAT, prime s1mple's run is untouched. textbook wins majors, anomalies make history.

@OliouWinter @Mirriee1 @EWC_Extra S1mple would propably damage this team with terrible attitude and lack of work ethics tbh. Zywoo clears with GOAT mentality

@Mirriee1 @EWC_Extra S1mple in vitality would have the same amount as zywoo if not more he is the most entertaining personality in esports thats why people love him

@LEC @G2League MKOI without chinese chronobreak guardian angel strat

Playoffs form ✅ @G2League take down MKOI!

@forestwithout I wouldn't share it on stream personally but the sentiment is not even that weird? Seems like he was a bad person towards his own family

What the fuck did I just listen to lmao

@LEC @MovistarKOILoL I speak for all LEC fans who care for integrity that this was a fraudulent win and we will cheer against MKOI for the rest of their playoffs run

#MKOIWIN @MovistarKOILoL move on in the Upper Bracket!

@MrFungii @GustoGanz @MBrunken @AymCybele28 Nothing? They're propably doing it. But it's extremely reductive to say all you need is basic hygiene. Plenty of adult people struggle with meeting new friends, and finding somebody you can be comfortably intimate with is even harder

@GustoGanz @MBrunken @AymCybele28 Literally what’s stopping you

@RiotPhroxzon Thank lord Draven gets a buff, after 6 gorillion patches of him being the S++ tier his inflated mains had to struggle with 1 month of him being blatantly balanced. Hope with these changes he's allowed to statcheck BOTH adc and support at the same time

Patch 26.3 Preview! This is a huge patch after we've had a bit of time to assess how things have landed and things have taken some time to settle. Will go more in depth about champion changes tomorrow, especially the jungle changes. Ranked - We're triaging a few things related to Apex negative LP gains that we're seeing in a few regions (+17/-23 kind of things) - We're also looking at some duo queue adjustments for literally top 20 challenger levels of duos to make those a bit more balanced - As a reminder, these things that we've been posting about recently with the Ranked ladder don't affect 99.9% of Ranked players, but matter a lot to the Masters+ crew and we're still trying to fine tune behavior here - I'm going to write more of a detailed Masters+ retro about some of the considerations that went into the changes this year as well as some of the follow up changes we're doing in a few days, especially after validating some of the hunches for the cause of the negative LP gains Game Metrics - We've seen game snowballiness continue to stabilize lower than Season 15 values - Game times are also coming down a bit back to S15 values - As discussed in a previous preview though, players feel like downtime is down and so feel like the game is faster. On the flip side, there are many players saying that this Season feels really fun and part of that is due to how much action is going on - We're going to let it ride a bit though, as it seems like players are getting used to a new normal here and at least a good portion are finding it more fun - What we are changing though is how much players are worth for repeat kills on a player who is not worth that much; we reduced this in 26.1 but are pulling it back a bit - At the same time, we're investigating what communicating this state looks like on the scoreboard, but have a pretty strong aversion to cluttering up the scoreboard with a lot of exact numbers; nothing to share back yet on that front, but doing some investigations Towers & Objectives - There's been a lot of discussion about how threatening first Baron is and also a bit about how much damage junglers do to objectives - We're not planning to change a lot here on 26.3, but may change some of these dynamics for 26.4 after observing more Vision - With early game faelights and slower first clears, early ganks have been a bit harder to come by - We're pushing back early game yellow trinket cds back to S15 values (170 >>> 210s) to make warding a bit less "free" and early ganks a bit more successful on average Items - There will be more detail on the item changes tomorrow with full preview, but I just wanted to talk about 2 ahead of time - Actualizer (which is currently only a Ryze item) is getting a buff to be viable on more users. At the same time though, Ryze is getting nerfed - The entire package is intended to be a net negative to Ryze and he's getting nerfed indirectly by a lot of changes this patch - Dusk & Dawn has been a super hot topic! - We don't think Dusk & Dawn is overpowered overall, but there are champions that synergize very well with it that will ultimately be hard bound to it - This is totally fine though; plenty of champions love and are hardbound to certain items and we hope that D&D is one of those that those users find very satisfying - This is ultimately why we're choosing to nerf the champions that predominantly purchase the item, while still leaving it viable for the fringe users - Having said that, we think the item power budget and shape is a bit off - D&D was intended to be less damage-y and more bruisery than its other AP sheen counter part - Lich Bane - We're adjusting its profile (+HP, -Damage) to better suit this

@sofymellow @Tyras_Mikhail Overwhelming majority of people who actually played cyberpunk after phantom liberty ends up loving it

@Tyras_Mikhail >battlefield 1 and Cyberpunk 2077 >universally beloved games 🧐

Watching grifters shooting themselves in the foot is genuinely beautiful. They ran out of easy targets like Concord or Dragon Age Veilguard. They ran out of new games like KCD II or Ghosts of Yotei to call "woke". So, they're going back to older, almost universally beloved games, like RDR II, Battlefield 1 and Cyberpunk 2077, and calling them "woke" so they have something to talk about. Please keep doing it, watching you burn down your own movement with your desideration for constant petulance is genuinely entertaining.

@BCGameEsports @statsmeister1 True, vitality deserves it's own tier

@statsmeister1 where's the goat tier?

CS2 2026 most watchable teams

@DylanSinnott @doughsheedy @ESLCS It will be a hot take but S1mple's BC game stunt was so fucking embarassing it levered the GOAT discourse for me. After this year? Few tournaments more for Spirit/Vitality and Donk vs S1mple will be a more even argument for me than S1mple vs Zywoo

@doughsheedy @ESLCS I don’t disagree, but his 2 years has cleared any peak from Zywoo, you can argue s1mple or a few of the 1-2 legends. But even if he’s slows down to to Ropz level imo he runs don s1mple easily. He could fall off and fade away, but so far, we’ve never seen anything like this.

Is the 🐐 debate over?

@RedShuttle66 @Sheep_Esports @ArmandLuque If you keep upset you're basically fine with Fnatic staying a top 3/4 in EU forever. You cannot build a championship roster around a guy that requires big resources but doesn't give you a big reward

@Sheep_Esports @ArmandLuque The only ones who should stay in that roster are Miky, upset and Poby. A new top for sure and possibly a new jng.

FNC Oscarinin 🇪🇸: "This roster needs to be shaken up. It’s clearly not working out I don’t know what’ll happen, but I think it would be hard to make things work if we keep playing together. I don’t see the full roster staying" Interview by @ArmandLuque sheepesports.com/en/articles/fn…

@Possiblecontrol @Neccccy Do you have any idea how many refugees Poland took in during last 5 years?

@Neccccy Poland and Hungary are doing great. Wonder if they take Christian refugees 🤔

Would you?

@_Cornballius_ I will not share my opinion on the game but it's absolutely obvious how you're making shit up to prove your point. The game started off with no budget but sold estimate of million copies and has a strong fanbase, the fuck do you mean "project that already failed"

Ever since the creator posted that “cry about it” image, it was a sign of failure from a project that already failed. Similar issue happened with class 09 which ended up making the fans realize how ass the game truly was, and will happen with TCOAAL aswell.
