It goes further back. Roman soldiers were carrying huge shields to form turtle formation which was basically impervious to arrow fire and other ranged attacks, decently effective vs melee too. It's what let them decimate enemy forces while barely taking any losses.
Your """argument""" was irrelevant to the discussion. You're the one who made up that comparison, I wasn't talking about that. Yes, i will always blame you for jumping into discussion attacking others while being ignorant.
Good job lying about things you have no idea about, despite context...
You're still missing the point. It's not about your or mine opinion. It's about how CN can act upon it.
Awful comparison showing you still fail to understand the real issue. Go watch that video before you come back to discussion because it's clear you didn't even bother comprehending my words...
Never claimed being an expert (good job with the retort...) but I certainly know more than him and apparently you. Google Kiryuu Coco. Youtuber who was bigger than Viper, T90 and SoTL combined. Huge fanbase in China. Career ended because she showed Taiwan on stream. She was harassed for long...
You sound like a rabid fanboy who will always come defend him and ignore any reason.
Yeah "you feel". You're just clueless about the extent of the situation because you never really saw what they're capable of. But instead of being a reasonable person and considering other option you previously...
That's the thing, he won't.
The only one who can be harmed by it is Mr Yo. CN government has no power over Nili, other than preventing CN players to join his tournaments.
It's very irresponsible to make jokes at the expense of another person while staying free of consequences yourself.
I've...
Your laptop is very powerful, it should handle the game well... it's possible it enters low performance mode to save energy while running the game but then when there's more action it starts lagging. Check your GPU settings or Asus software settings to see if there are no potential problems with...
just wow...
Mr Yo handled it well, instantly distanced himself from it and left the subject but with how China is, he could still get in trouble for that. I really hope he won't face backlash after returning home... very poor behavior by Nili. He should be aware of possible consequences for the...
Your brain doesn't seem to be working. Because that's not what the topic was about. You either failed to understand it or intentionally misrepresent it. It wasn't about Microsoft investing into aoe4. It was about personal decision of single individual to choose aoe4 over aoe2.
That's not how it works.
Prize pool is a small portion of total costs of the event. It's the external costs which forced Nili to lower the prize pool, to cover at least part of those costs. He will still be in the red, but not devastatingly so anymore. Covering people's flights, accommodation...
The CN streaming platform he uses gave him temp ban.
Sorry for making use of your message like this but this a perfect excuse to post the Baltic Fleet pasta. I hope anyone who hasn't heard the story yet enjoys it. It deserves to be spread around.
This is giving me Kiryuu Coco flashbacks.
Except this time situation is tougher to judge because China has a lot of amazing players and I wish them all the best.
At the same time, it's clearly an artificial problem invented by obsessed Chinese government and conforming to their demands would be...
He had the power to decide which game will get the $100k tournament a year ago and he chose aoe4 instead of aoe2.
Even though the event has historically always been aoe2. Even though aoe2 had better numbers at that time. Even though aoe2 had much better future prospects. Even though whole...
Thanks for letting me know. Hmm twitter followers numbers are a metric that is very hard to estimate properly, i've seen many examples where account X had a lot more engagement than account Y despite five times less followers, there's also big variation depending on target audience (younger...
Welp, what can I say? Looks like in his LoL days he was simply hard carried by the franchise name and not his actual skills - also maybe why he got removed from the broadcast?
His numbers on twitch aren't anything impressive. He's streaming for 100-150 people right now.
For comparison...
Yup, exactly. He faced a lot less criticism than many other people/threads and most of negativity came from users who were already known for expressing themselves that way. It was pretty obvious he didn't bother learning culture of this place but sure was quick trying to force everyone to adapt...
Yup, it's hard to take his words at face value considering how aggressive, manipulative, deceitful and self-entitled that guy can be.
For posterity, from "Elite Gaming Channel presents: The Golden League":
He's just a manchild with too much money who mostly cares about being the biggest fish...
