I used to hate Fnatic but now I hate Na'Vi even more. Also Fnatic has dennis now, and he was on my favorite team G2 (now FaZe), so there's that.

Out of curiousity, what is the matchmaking ranks of the people here that are unironically suspicious of flusha?
GN3 because I stopped giving a poo poo about competitive in November.

And yes, "Hah you're a low rank you don't know what you're talking about". But when poo poo like this pops up, it's hard not to automatically assume something fishy is going on. I do believe summit1g proved this could happen if you simultaneously hit Tab while colliding with the wall behind you, so it's entirely plausible that it was sheer luck that this happened.

Luna Was Here posted:

Here's the thing though, even when kqly got vac'd and reddit went insane trying to find out who was gonna be next, they never did. No one called emilio being the next one down and HR was fairly popular at this time point. I can guarantee you that if after all the scrutiny by valve, the majors, and the community, that if after all of that flusha has not been caught, then he is not cheating

If he gets vac'd then permaban me

I'm trying to understand what your point is. You singled out a VAC ban, then said people freaked out and started a witch hunt but they didn't catch anyone. Then the point was brought up that other people hacked.

Is your point a defense of flusha or a defense of there not being any cheaters?

Either way, just because someone hasn't been caught yet even after some scrutiny doesn't mean they are guiltless. The guy is good, but he makes fishy plays a lot of the time. Let the people speculate, I need some drama to read about at work.

It's a defense of flusha. I don't think he hacks but if he does I believe he would have been caught by now. Here is what I am trying to say

Emilio is caught hacking, people go crazy, try to find who is next
People go crazy over flusha, search through tons of vods and make hundreds of gifs of supposed proof
Kqly gets vacd, everyone goes, 'bwuuuh?'
Flusha does not get vacd

The guy doesn't hack. It's a pointless untrue meme that isn't funny anymore and if he was hacking he would've been caught by now considering all the piles of absolutely $100% true evidence upvoted by reddit and valve watching him probably more than other pros because of the reddit memes, and they haven't vacd him yet which they would have if all the evidence was so concrete

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

it would actually be fishier if flushas performances declined and those weird things stopped happening after being called out multiple times.

Are there any solid numbers for that? I doubt really doubt it, but I also remember seeing Richard Lewis' failing GoFundMe, and a lot of them don't seem to have much else going on. Are they really surviving off the analyst desk and some Breitbart articles?

differnt game obviously but in dota 2 a caster claimed they were paying hosts/casters 10-12k for big events. just single events.
