Av3K was lucky vs Noctis on ZTN. Just watched the demos from both pov. I'm a big fan of both but that was a good game and Noctis was pretty unlucky there.

He couldn't beat a half-hearted opponent so I wouldn't call that unlucky.

But what do you find here to laugh about?
Basically Av3k played carelessly like it was a game with some noob on a public server and still all noctis could do with it is to let luck decide the winner.
So, yes, ultimately noctis was unlucky, but it was his bad play (compared to av3k) that lead the game to the point where the luck decided everything.

yes, he played carelessly at times, but certainly not all the time.

But that's not what i find amusing.
They are always going on how av3k doesn't need practice and doesn't care and still owns everything, trying to sell him as the awesomest talent ever. Hey, maybe he is, so that too isn't really it. (Even though they are quite persitant in doing so.)

It's trying to sell us that being unable to motivate oneself and concentrate for 30 minutes is somehow a great thing.

this time it was you.

but i have seen at least five comments that insinuated the same: "av3k is bestest but he doesn't/is too cool to care". And always from a Polish person.

I think it is true to some extent. I don't like this attitude though.
