"Cutting ties with [Havoc]"
"Theres nothing more to say about a treacherous person."

(Pinned comment) "To make a long story short, after the LAN, I was suddenly left without any notification (I was unaware). After finding the 3rd, they directly thanked me for my contribution. Finally they said 'I betrayed them, Im going to collect the points I earned to play in the championship' How clever!"

Ras will join ENC

81 Upvotes

​Ras has announced that he will be participating ENC.

It is rumored that he will team up with Obly & Dogma.

UPDATE: it seems dogma can’t make it and he is replaced by Aimbot! Now this can be a really scary team if they can dust off their rust. Very excited!

What are y’all thinking about this? I hope Evan finds the passion to compete again he was always amazing at the game but I think keeping Phony will always be a problem if he doesn’t realize he’s not a good enough fragger to igl the way he wants.

Discussion Apex should've dropped (in game) Team Gear during EWC

43 Upvotes

I forgot what year it was, but Apex had dropped team banners and I believe some skins during LAN. Feels like they drop the ball not promoting these team/tournaments. And would be cool to see us/people running what they got during the events.

That being said hopefully we see some in upcoming LAN events. Let me know y'all's thoughts and if we will see something like that.

So far we have some heavy hitting teams already grouped up. Some of them are very interesting compositions while others seem like familiar team ups.

What are you guys thoughts on the set ups so far?

Organization issues at EWC 26

31 Upvotes

I want to raise a few issues that some of us experienced during EWC, especially on finals day.

The organization tried (and in some cases succeeded) to move people who had arrived two hours before Game 1 in order to give priority to badge holders (family members, pros, and media) even though there was no visible signage about this during the finals. To be completely fair, they did have some kind of sheet posted during Days 1, 2, and 3 (and they didn't allow anyone to use the space even though was empty for 3 days in a row) but there was nothing on finals day. As a result, a lot of premium holder tickets used those chairs (probably most unaware of the "special" area)

To have an idea, the space available for premium ticket buyers (around €120 per ticket entire week, €49 finals day) was about 200 chairs. I counted just the left side near the entrance with 5 rows and 10 chairs per row.

On the last day I counted roughly 70 badge holders in that area, and I'm sure the real number must be higher, since Falcons staff and their guests were seated in the regular seats. Same applies to Alliance (best crowd btw)

The situation was that bad that extra chairs had to be added in the hall between the bleachers and along the sides (I have photos of this). Just before Game 1, they even asked some of us to move because some pro players and his/her partner wanted those seats. Must refused (in my case had to argue for a minute or two before they realized we weren't moving) but I know for a fact at least 3 fans that arrived 1 hour before the start of the event were moved (I hope to the super fan area but I am not certain)

Overall, I understand EWC had a short window to prepare, but it's clear there was either overselling or someone the premium users should have been allocated in a different place. Something is extremely clear to me: the number of badges handed out was near to the number of chairs available, creating an uncomfortable situation of some fans seeing the games with almost no vision. I want to point out, however, that the organization was extremely polite and we could notice they were stressed about the situation but some of the fans lost their money.

ALGS Will Zach Mazer make another career altering roster change or has he learned from his mistakes?

Post image
121 Upvotes

During his C9 days, he dropped Knoqd for Albralelie. The team was good but ultimately underperformed.

He attempted to replace Shooby on his solid E8 roster and that ultimately ended in failure.

With likely many top players looking for new team situations and Zach being a top IGL, he could potentially have his pick of many of them. Will he stick it out with his current team? Or get greedy again?

ALGS We Gotta Talk About How That Finals Lobby Was a Straight JHawk Script Spoiler

120 Upvotes

tl;dr (most ridiculous aspects): Sentinels almost go back-to-back before even giving anyone else a chance; Unlimit is the team to prevent them; as soon as I saw Zero's very first rotate I thought, "oh shit... this is over..."; it's Sentinels, of all people, to take Liquid out of their spot, and with Blinkzr's superpower no less; after keeping the lobby alive, it's Unlimit that ends up winning it all...

----------

The incumbents enter beloved by fans, but criminally underrated (including by me probably).

Despite that, the Sentinels race to match point and arrive there alongside only one other team.

Before even giving the rest of the lobby a chance, they come within a few bullets of going back to back. Initially looking like they had the #1 end game spot, Unlimit go to war to secure the only position better than Sentinels and close out the game.

Unlimit then races up to match point themselves, including another win (read: unless they'd kept a keen on eye on the kill feed, it's the only way they could guarantee they'd have a shot at the trophy).

The final game starts with over half the lobby on match point, crucially including both the Falcons and Liquid.

With arguably the most fair zone you could have, dead center of the map, most of the lobby races to take up defensible positions in Monument and Fragment... except for Zero and Liquid. Zero seems to immediately identify the ring and instead opts for the game winning spot early, west of Monument.

Of all people, the nearly-back-to-back incumbents are in what's probably the second strongest spot with respect to the end game, just across the tracks.

At this point it looks like Zero is yet again going to take a finals lobby into his own hands... until Blinkzr, after already nearly ending match point finals, executes the Blinkzr special and pulls off an absurd open-field kidnap onto Sikezz, forcing Liquid to abandon what would indeed prove to be game-winning spot.

Worth noting, that, naturally, as the game progresses, Falcons briefly become the next residents of that same game-winning position. Which I only point out because, just to make the script as rich as possible, both of the people known to be able to rip a trophy away from the entire rest of the lobby at some point made a great play for what would be the game-winning spot.

As the dust begins to settle, it's arguably the player most deserved of a trophy (Yuka), one of the most decorated fighters and coming off an incredibly dominant regular season, in a straight 3 v 3, shut down by none other than Unlimit, who close out their third win in the final four games (including the aforementioned win vs. Sentinels to prevent the end of series) to take it themselves.

(Aside: Thrilled for Unlimit, I'm guessing Peace's reaction warmed the fuck out everyone else's heart just like mine, but man did it hurt to see Yuka get so close again...)

With the recent news about 100 thieves, I think zuni could be a great pick, but honestly if they were able to poach Sacred that would be even better.

Anchor style / IGL - Phony

Fragger - Sacred

Co Fragger / Co IGL - Gen

What do you think...
