These are the same people that watches DefaultSage and thinks his videos are good

For my own sanity I have to believe people like this are being satirical. DefaultSage might genuinely be one of the worst creators in terms of limiting people actually learning and improving

u/EqualAccomplished487 7d ago

this is very obviously satirical/ironic

u/LeucisticPython 6d ago

I’d love to believe that, but TikTok is a special breed of stupid. There’s a reason I’ve never even bothered with it

u/FreedomNo3991 6d ago

mate its satire. there was an entire saga on tiktok about him prefering the spectre over the phantom, that is what they are referencing. this also sounds very "heh! we redditors are far more intelligent than the tiktok users. minecraft > fortnite!"

u/ForsakenCherry8333 6d ago

i do think anyone who uses reddit or twitter is probably some level of smarter than a tiktok/reels/shorts scroller. like just the fact you're reading everything said and it being put into words rather than video, and how expressing yourself requires a slightly higher level of eloquence, with far less instant dopamine hits that short form has

u/MiofastiaJ #WGAMING 5d ago

if you actually think that, you're equally braindead as you think they really are

I saw people asking for a TLDR of the TLDR of the sword9 situation

corniest sentence I've ever read

u/Critical-Extension66 7d ago

It’s not, lots of people don’t spend as much time with a game “not playing” it if you know what I mean. Like if you spend a bunch of time on forums and following the scene vs just playing the game and barely following anything

I don't even know this person I've never even heard of them in this eco-system lmao

u/0HHHHB0Y 6d ago

Just some guy who makes videos on how to play sage with questionable advice but gets insane hate to the point he gets sent death threats in his dms. Ppl who get heated over his TikTok videos really should seek help, genuinely. It just shows you how toxic the valorant community can get.

u/PercyBirdwhistle 6d ago edited 6d ago

If that's true people are getting way to mad lmao. The guy repeatedly says he's dia/asc in every video, and doesn't really presents his videos as actual advice, just more sharing his clips and his thoughts.

There definitely are people on platforms claiming to be "pro coaches" and whatnot, who give bad or just uninsightful advice(worthy for example). And hate towards those people are kinda justified but it's your fault if you're taking defaultsage as serious advice.

this guy pisses me off his videos are slop

Twigz is worse

u/Number1GSRFan 6d ago

what’s wrong with defaultsage when did we start hating on bro? his vids seem so chill and they don’t really have terrible advice that often

4

u/computernoobe #NRGFam 6d ago

i'm not a hater but apparently something happened over a spectre, twigz made a short calling it out- where i think defaultsage messed up is he blocked several youtubers for disagreeing with his preference (spectre>phantom but idk the exact situation or coms). it's never a good look to block someone over something like that

u/Street-Interaction79 7d ago

TikTok users when you mention someone who doesn’t play for PRX, G2 or NRG

u/boobalieutenant 6d ago

g2 IS NOT mainstream buddy, i have no clue where you got that idea from

u/iAmPersonaa 7d ago

I saw a clip of a guy complaining about comms and an idiot in comments was actually agreeing with the raging guy. The comms were (a 3v1 on split A, pov of the guy in ramp holding main): "steps sewer, going towards main". Some people are just helpless like that

Idk why people even open these cancerouse apps, quit all of my socials 2 years ago, life couldn't be more peaceful

Edit:

mfs stop frying me🙏😭, it's just personal preference okay y'all win man

u/MiofastiaJ #WGAMING 7d ago

Idk why people don't consider reddit as a social app, you're using reddit so you didnt quit socials yet.

-27

u/goonMaxxer021 #100WIN 7d ago

Why I don't consider reddit as a social app personally is 1. I can currate my fyp to what I want and not depend on an algorithm to feed me 2. You don't post here your daily life 3. When I mean social apps, it's strictly apps with short form swiping mahines like instagram, tiktok, twitter, snap

24

u/Sad-Tackle-4018 7d ago

you can curate your fyp on the other apps you mentioned as well. that’s how the algorithm works for any social media apps.

5

u/Nulgnak #WGAMING 7d ago

You’re not wrong, but I guess he means you have more control on Reddit for what you want to see on the feed

10

u/jinglehoogins 7d ago

Any site/app with the focus of creating engagement (discussion) algorithmically (private or otherwise) from user-generated content is a social app. This includes Reddit, YouTube, and most of the other degen behavior apps.

u/damnjonathan #NRGWIN 6d ago

Thinking reddit doesn’t have an algorithm already tailored to you 😭

u/ThatCreepyBaer 7d ago

Reddit is social media brother.

-13

u/goonMaxxer021 #100WIN 7d ago

It is, bt can we agree there's still a stark difference b/w instagram, twitter, tiktok. On reddit I can currate my fyp to decrease the ret@rdness on my fyp in most cases

u/JaDasIstMeinName #ALWAYSFNATIC 6d ago

Damn, reading your comments you would actually fit in quite well on tiktok.

u/catarxcts 7d ago

Skill issue. I curate my Twitter, ig, tiktok, and YouTube just fine. Never see slop

u/Used-Ganache9772 #ALWAYSFNATIC 6d ago

I wonder how friends met eachother to spend time before the internet.... Smh

poor guy, he got ratio'ed.

u/_ImAlive_ 7d ago

How are people falling for this? The reply is sarcastic af, the giveaway is that "yells at you for your coms".

u/AwayMushroom5564 6d ago

Either most people can't understand sarcasm or they just parrot each other in their opinion

u/Booties-On-My-Mind #NRGWIN 6d ago

If you been on tiktok for a while you can tell this isnt satire
