/u/Ovedius can you confirm or deny that you are an analyst?

The type of analysis I would do is arguably different to what a team analyst would do. My job is to try and understand how and why things go right or wrong based on the game I'm watching. Their job is about helping their team improve and I would imagine studying the game from a slightly different perspective.

My title is analyst when I'm on a desk but I'm more of a broadcast analyst which should in theory be different to a team analyst. I can't confirm as I've never done analysis for a team before so I don't know the full inner workings of how they do things

Explained it way better than I did (re-reading sounds like a but like a 'jab' at you which it was not meant to!). In my defence I wrote it at like 5/6am on no sleep haha.

Side note it must be a little frustrating that people only care about the result of a prediction and not your reasons for them, and take the game predictions so serious when half the time you guys are messing around.

Rarely do people actually hold me accountable for predictions outside of international events. I didn't watch the video so they may have criticized a prediction I made but honestly I'm not really bothered by it. If people just want to make fun of me for an incorrect prediction it's really fine. If someone is trying to discredit me as an analyst by using a prediction I made then their opinion probably isn't worth listening to.
