What I am about to bitch about does NOT have to do with the tragic events that happened on yesterdays stream. I will not be speaking too much about what happened yesterday, but if you are curious I took A LOT of Larry's. These Larry's were not my fault AT ALL. After the Rocket League DISASTER I just laid in bed (next to my smoking hot lady) thinking...."WHY?!". Why is solo queuing such a god damn gamble? The obvious answer is you don't know what kind of teammate you are getting. Is this teammate familiar with the art of rotating? Can he/she handle a cut in rotation? Is this person a slug? Does this person dabble with tax evasion? Many many factors play in to how well your solo queue session will go, but what I learned most recently is Rocket League is not an FPS. Yes, I couldn't believe it either! Let me explain. I am CRACKED at FPS games. Just as CRACKED as I am in Rocket League. The difference is this. Think of the ball in Rocket League as a gun in a shooter. If you don't have the ball YOU CAN'T slay out the enemy. If your shit team mate insists on holding the ball, holding your weapon, you are kind of at their mercy. That's something even with 2000 hours in I still can't wrap my head around. It's kind of the side effect of the games design and I'm pretty sure there is no way of rectifying this. And I am not entirely sure if I want it fixed because maybe it doesn't need to be fixed. The only option I see is if I think you are a shit teammate I need to assert my dominance early in the match and show them I am the alpha!

If you are on Twitter you have to know about the consistent shit show that is COD Warzone. It has been BANANAS the last couple days. Hackers all over the place! Men that just can't seem to receive any affection from other human beings thinking that by using hacks to better their gameplay will change that characteristic of their life. Breaking news dudes, IT WON'T! Recently Tommey of 100 Thieves or as I like to call him Sherlock Holmes has been exposing Warzone streamers that are hacking. I don't care for the game at all, but it has got me watching Warzone, because the look on these frauds faces when Tommey confronts them has been priceless and very entertaining. Yes, I am looking at you Pacesetter. The video really does this confrontation justice. Pacesetter, after being 100% exposed, and 100% admitting to cheating on an alt account began to get a bit emotional. Nothing surprising coming from someone who has 10,000+ eyes on him, Tommey Holmes DRILLING HIM and guilty plastered all over his dumbass face. I was shocked that Pacesetter went Yu-Gi-Oh on our asses and played the "culture" card out of the clouds when this has nothing to do with culture and everything to do with him being a shit human. People will chirp me that I am too harsh on this guy because he is "just a kid". Nope I have a saying. If you got hair on your balls, you got to start thinking with your head.
I am always about second chances especially with something like this. I mean shit, it's just video games at the end of the day. On the other hand, I am also about taking your punishment when you get caught doing something stupid. Take it like a champ, shake it off, bounce back, and try to earn the communities trust back. I am very aware of my NA bias, but I am also smart enough to know when greatness is punched into my eye balls. In fact, I got TWO black eyes from each of the matches that BDS and Giants played in the finals because we got ourselves a bracket reset. And it was exactly what the region needed. I felt like the last 2 seasons of EU Rocket League have been tough to watch if you aren't a diehard RLCS fan. The games were very "fundamental" and most of the scoring happened off a defensive mistake. Contrary to the NA scene where everyone is just metaphorically sipping on an Adderall and Cocaine cocktail and popping off on people. It may be a high risk high reward style of play, but it brings in more eyes to the game. Luckily BDS and Giants brought speed and chaos towards the later games of the second series. I don't want to get too detailed into this match, because its a must watch. All I will say is the last game of the second series was BANANAS. Top 10 All-Time match up. I really wanted to tell everyone about this crazy ass story that happened a few days ago at work. I couldn't tell it until I got the FULL story, but now I got it baby! If you don't know, I work as a Manager of Logistics for a "high-end" clothing store. I want to say maybe 4 or 5 days ago one of my fellow managers came to the warehouse to tell me that someone stole their Gucci wallet straight out of her car. She was getting notices on her phone that someone was spending OVER 12,000 dollars at the mall next door...and 1200 dollars of that was spent at the store WE worked at. The cherry on top was the manager was working the cash register when she noticed a family (that's right these morons reproduced) to the register next to her were checking out with a shopping cart FULL of designer handbags. The mother of the family kept reiterating that it was a "well earned post-Christmas shopping spree". Turns out, after our security and mall security did their brief video surveillance investigation these parents were seen in OVER AN HOUR worth of video just spending this poor woman's money. Most people who steal like this normally live out of state, park away from the parking lot, and do their best to keep their license plate hidden. These fine examples of the word "intellectuals" did no such thing. Lived locally, Parked square and centered in view of cameras, and the license plate was basically just handed to us. We got word today the broke ass criminal parents were arrested and charged. It does suck that children were involved (I am not a complete heartless asshole) and I do hope in the future these scumbag bounce back and try to become good members of society, but right now all I got for them is......FUCKEM.
