@@dracvich Yeah idk. I’ve been following Tarik since 2016. Miss the old rank s days. When it comes to playing, sadly his chat throws a fit if he plays any game that isn’t valorant. Watch parties are different though. You’re correct though Riot is super stingy which could be the case. He’s essentially forced to watch every match it seems like. Not the biggest Riot guy, find it cringe they don’t like anyone touching their game so we will never get stuff like community servers, etc. What a throw by PRX btw on map 3. Hard to watch. The attack round in OT was dumb one to lose. It’s a shame because they are a good team with great players but choke almost every event. I wanted them to win but maybe Champs I suppose.
