And you guys thought sigafoo was a problem LOL

Great changes, we need more accessible pug systems for everyone! Great work :)

Low invite gatekeeper

I don’t know if Alfa’s team is actually attending anymore, but I mentioned to tsc multiple times my full team from qualifiers was ready to go, no subs or anything. We finished in qualifiers just after Alfa’s team but he never gave me a solid answer. I do hope Alfa’s team can attend since they paid their dues in qualifiers, but I do think scrambling for a EU pug team to replace Full NA teams just to validate it as an international LAN is kind of a joke move

Soy farming is one of the most destructive farming industries on the planet for wildlife and sentient life in general, but that fact is generally ignored. It is also one of the most in demand products currently going as the population of north eastern Asian continues to grow along with id wager 80% of vegan products contain some form of soy and soy solution.

The mistreatment of livestock has not stemmed from immoral behaviour or people simply wanting to cause pain to animals, it stems from the demand that humans have put on livestock farming which has caused malpractice. It is simply impossible to ethically farm livestock at the demand we are currently living with. Corporate grocers and big wig restaurant/dining company’s are highly sought after establishments by the general public, therefore causing an impossible demand to meet if the pace of farming is too slow.

If people actually want to make change and create sustainable farming there should be one goal and one goal only; eat seasonal based products and buy organic, local food.

The more people can get into a habit of supporting local aggregates and livestock and eating seasonal produce, the most you’re gonna see the big wig companies demand for livestock go down. It’s not just animal farming that’s a big problem.

Do I think that it will ever change? No. I think it’s too far gone and going back now will cause nothing short of an economical disaster. I hope vegans realize that their cause should be less about morality and more about local agriculture, but I fear it will never happen. I personally buy local and eat local; produce and livestock and restaurants/groceries who use local product, that’s where the big picture is at.

Pug champ is literally an invite circle jerk

I mean using the word delusional and then saying the current maps should remain and can be improved and changed without the devs for it is kinda well...you know...

Any idea when you guys will release a list of the full invited and confirmed teams?

I was actually the one that advocated for this move to happen, jnkx and KCREW has been amazing to us and it’s been a really great org to rep but I couldn’t let them pass on an opportunity to be have a team at BTS. We are all super excited to have sandblast and Co. take up the mantle and we will see be around :)

i would not really consider those games to be in close in popularity to games like PUBG, OW, LoL, DotA etc

edit: misunderstood

those games are too hard and take too much of a knowledge base to actually be good at so people don't want to invest time into them, way easier and accessible for people to jump into a BR or something and just pick up gun and shoot

Mids being smaller and not forcing you into rotation style mids is actually way better for soldiers than scout. In playtesting it’s been pretty clearly demonstrated to be a soldier/demo dominated middle point

Used to love playing against this core, definitely join them they still have so much room to get better and they are already extremely good. Easily invite mainstay type of team if they commit

you mean TL;DR admits to pedophilic behaviour
