One thing that people watching this should consider is that America has a weird paranoia about any age gap relationships. Relationships in any context, be it friendly, sexual or even as a mentor. Younger people, like probably the people in Twitch chat, assume any adult talking to someone younger than them is trying to groom them or doing inevitably doing it for some sexual gain. This societal, collective mental illness is another evolution of the same paranoia this country was founded on. It's basically the death of any mentorship, adoption or closeness of any kind between the old and young. It's pitiful and there's very little that can be done about it.

@M_CFV

That paranoia has ramped up because of very real things like epsteins client list coming out, and famous cases from the past like the McMartin case. There's good reason to have caution. That said, young people nowadays don't know anything about the McMartin case, so they aren't freaking out because of that. Other people, like women, freak out at any male over 30 who flirts or tries to be with women in their early twenties. They will literally claim grooming, of an adult. It's insanity, a double standard too.

I don’t think it’s necessarily perceived that way, but more to do with the influence of pop culture that brings forward certain perceptions and stigmas on younger generations. Society as a whole nowadays is based on the perception of the influencers kids watch, from subconscious mind patterns, to lingo, to even certain views they have on life. Someone can see their favorite streamer make a joke on a 30yr old mentoring a 18-20 year old, and now has left this seed implanted in the young adults mind that it’s “weird” to do that. With all the people that have been cancelled aswell on esports, and social media as a whole. some rightly so, some unjustly, and others are a grey area. It’s all to do with perception and how easily it is for an influencer and pop culture to influence audiences mind to see things a certain way even if the idea is objectively wrong. It’s an issue on the influencers not knowing how much their words weight, kids not questioning everything they watch because of the power numbers and followers holds on audiences, and parents for not knowing the importance of teaching proper navigation of social media because that wasn’t an issue in their own young adults life.

Also hats off to you and everyone standing up against the Saudi sports washing! I boycot them too, but I have nothing to lose relatively to players or talents that refuse to bow to the big money and influence.

41:18 I think you might be right about stew being a narcissist. I’m so sure he hasn’t heard of monesy or donk lol

I was really hoping after the win he'd realize how lucky he was. He sounded like he knew when he got interviewed on stage but then I saw this interview and was let down. I didn't care for him too much after c9. He really hated on ska for really no reason. Ska has constantly been one of those guys no one has ever had anything bad to say about and after hearing stew basically didn't like him it rubbed me the wrong way. Hope he figures out his ego someday, he could still be a good piece on an NA team but I'm not holding my breath.

🐐

As someone who has played league level cs (2.5k elo). My IGL not knowing the opponent is a cardinal sin. We did prep work on "random" teams even at an inters level.

It's mad how he argues he knows Cs and like 5 min later cans strait up say he doesn't know mutch about arguably the best player in the world right now.

Someone saying youre doing a good job when you have imposter syndrome is huge, it goes a long way.

i understand you meant for the initial tweet it to be about hooxi but saying you don't understand how they won implies they shouldn't have won when their playstyle was looking like 2018 Astralis.

The term "hater" is thrown around so much, I truly believe a person like Maui honestly does not know what it means. He claims that tweet was "epitomizing a typical online hater". The tweet was factual information. Being a hater is hating someone in spite of factual information or lack thereof. It is hating just to hate based on superficial levels. There was nothing "hater" about that tweet. Zero. The fact he labeled that tweet like that, it just shows what this current generation is all about. PARTICIPATION MEDALS. Doesn't matter how bad someone plays, if they win, they're just a god among men. Doesn't matter what sport or game it is, you will compliment them and if you don't, you're instantly labeled numerous things.

Is it a participation medal if you win something in a team game? Huh? Like I know you’re talking about Hooxi but if I didn’t know that, this comment would make zero sense. Plus, it’s always hard with IGLs. How can you know exactly what they contribute to them when their main contribution isn’t statistical output. The eye test is better in that case, if tactics are bad or sloppy, bad reads or sloppy mid rounding are easier to spot then. But still, it’s harder to say than being able to go look at that stats.

Cuz he actually cares for the once good kid he's vouched for when everyone was shitting on him. When you do care for people - you just can't stand watching them turning into a toxic blob.

@F1stzz But perhaps Richard needs to have a conversation privately with Stewie to get through to him and explain where he's coming from. He's probably already done that before, but I think what he's doing now will only do the opposite and give Stewie (who is incredibly emotionally immature and very unintelligent when it comes to anything but CS) an excuse to discount Richard's feelings and totally look past the fact that he cares. Now Stewie can say bullshit like: "He's milking me" (which we all know isn't true, but Stewie being Stewie can use this as an excuse now because Richard got quite upset for 50 minutes and started roasting him and Stewie will create some kind of logic where he thinks he hasn't done anything to Richard while Richard has been attacking him. Point being, I'm afraid this is counterintuitive. Maybe if Richard called Stewie and tried to bond and understand, things would be different. On the other hand though, I've tried getting through to people I care about with patience and love and they've just disappointed and hurt me, so I don't know if there's a right or wrong here and I also don't want to hate on Richard.

I forget where this interview was, but there was a video interview of Stewie, that's always stuck in my head for some reason. He was asked the question "What's the worst job you've ever had" his answer: "I've never had a job outside of CS". Unfortunately, it is quite hard to remain grounded in reality, for these kinds of people.
