Shootmania and quake were top tier. Reminds me that I wish that ricochet game from valve got more traction back in the day. The one where you hop from platforms and shoot circle blade things.
Not sure I know that one, but sounds somewhat like tribes which I also loved.
I remember you from the time the TrackMania people released a shooter. You were casting games in English and I had to do the same in French but I cannot remember on which website it was.
You were such a friendly guy. Glad you were able to pursue a career in the industry.
Shootmania was awesome!!! I cast it in 2012!
Are FPS games where the name comes from?
Yup. BF2, quake 3 cpma and COD4 promod my main competitive games
I remember you guys winning nearly every DGL but one iirc? I had a few friends in some of the other prem division teams and I think some of them just played to try beat BFB xD
I cannot tell you how much you this brings me Yip that was me and my squad
I was 22/23 and started it as a joke to get away from try hard COD4 promod. Never expected it to be my career because I kinda suck at anything not FPS haha
I'm f*cking exhausted omg. Opened and closed the show and had that fifth game immediately before solo hosting the draw show.
I tell you what, my casting was sloppy, but I poured everything I had into that chaos. I hope you had some fun with me!
It's really not often I find myself unable to find words to say on air, but those last 15 to 20 mins absolutely broke my brain.
Well, I guess neither of us is young anymore :D
Fun Fact: My First ever game I watched was EU LCS 2014. It was first Jankos LCS game, Roccat vs Supa Hot Crew. And you sir did cast it :D I'm a fan of you both since then :D
You're the best.
After this game I have only one question.
Why did Jankos deny Quickshoot a high-five?
HE CAME BACK!! (Jankos and I are friends) and he was denying me cause I called him old again :P lol
This is awesome
I'm not mad and am insulted at the insinuation that I am. There is nothing unsafe about slobberknocker
Hahaha what a fun thread. We each have our own perspectives, it's offensive where I'm from and I explained as much 😁 I'm glad you're not offended at the word and I don't think either of us need to let this thread get under our skin.
Have a great night either way!
The knocker is a punch though in this context. It's supposed to knock the slobber out of someone. Not offensive at all
Read all my comments friend 😁 it has a different meaning where I grew up. I see now that it's local thing from my childhood. Let's not get too mad being a little more safe!
SA? South America?
South Africa! I was born and raised there.
I think that is fair and nice, but i dont think its fair and nice to impose those same values on other people especially during a broadcast, imo it felt a bit weird in the moment, no offense <3
Better safe than sorry, and I asked respectfully so don't see any real negative in how I framed it and reduced potential risk!
so?
I think it's a little disrespectful to use gender based anatomy in descriptors. I'm trying to be more aware of terms that could be offensive!
what a slobberknocker of a game (also how is this a bad word LOL)
In SA, it's a term for a very busty woman... And a heavy punch lol
CHAAAAAAAARGE is still one of my all time favourites.
Haha secret time, I have to cheat these days and use a spread sheet during draft lol.
All of them?
Message to Quickshot: Please pronounce Heretics in the correct English way. I know it is a small thing but it's really grating. I understand the importance of trying to pronounce non-English words correctly, but Heretics is an English word. I wouldn't pronounce Hereje in an English pronunciation intentionally, so I don't know why anyone would want to pronounce an English word with a Spanish pronunciation.
The team explicitly requested we pronounce it this way. We're partners and will follow suit of the teams wishes!
He looks like he's going for a mix between tech CEO and cult leader.
I can work with this.
