[MUSIC] >> Do you guys know how fast you were going? >> No, officer. >> Is anyone know how fast you were going? >> You got to spank it out of me, officer, not to spank you as well. >> Officer, do you want me to put my hands on the hood of the car? >> I want to put you, okay, this is all three in the car, I want you to start running two days together. Want you to just play with it. >> Play with it. >> You're real steady back up on this? You're going together to say each other. >> I'm good, I'm good. >> There was just going a little fast. >> Two sexual officers. >> I was seeing them squeezing them together. >> Okay, I'm trying, they're just small. >> You see my partner. >> You understand. >> My partner here, you understand. >> You guys know how fast you're going, by the way. >> If I put the microphone between them. >> You know how fast you're going? >> How long do I have to do this? >> You know, because how do girls even do that? >> They won't stay. >> Well, I think they're equipped. >> What kind of vibrational energy do we have today? Can we answer that question? >> It's all four of us, dreadlock rasta, yeah? >> Yeah, dreadlock rasta, bumble-cloth. I'm operating at a high energy. Imagine you drink a red bowl and then took a Benadryl. >> Wow. >> That's what I'm at. >> It's like attention wise, I'm like here, but like eyes and body, I'm aching. >> Your reactions. >> Yeah, and it's like, whoa, you know? >> Nick's been loving the World Cup. You remember how you guys just make fun of me for the Olympics? The Olympics come around because he's keeping the Olympics. Nick is keeping up with the World Cup. >> Yeah, I'm watching you. He has like, I didn't say anything wrong with it. >> Well, I just said, factually, he's keeping up with it. And you guys got defensive really quick, but why? >> I think I've been watching it. >> Yeah, I've been watching it. >> I'm just thinking upset lately. >> Have you guys noticed that? >> He was really in front of the team. I'm not kidding. He's like, yo, where's Messi? He's looking at the TV. He's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, what's he? >> And then he shows the one through, he's like, whoo. >> It's just like 10 minutes ago. >> And it was a joke, but it was very funny because it was for him. In the way that I say things. >> Yeah. >> I don't know. >> Messi was on the tally, bro. >> I just know we do like a couple meetings every week. And we usually do them by the couch area, which is in front of the TV. And the TV's usually off, or like displaying someone's a laptop. >> Yeah. >> And recently, Nick's just sitting there watching the World Cup game. >> It's like still following a World Cup. >> It's a picture in a topical ring. >> We're in the meeting deck. >> It's on already. >> There were street, the streamer game's meeting. >> I think it was our producer, Michael, who just works on that project with us. It was like leading the meeting, calling things out. But then the commentators, the World Cup are just screaming in the background. And then every time something, every time, I think it was the England game. Every time England made a play, everybody would turn around at the TV. They're not listening to you, dude. This is fucking boring. >> Yeah, they're watching the World Cup. >> Me and the editor meeting and being like, yeah, say go, do that. Nick's be like, that's offside. >> And that's offside. >> And Nick's defense. >> What's off, look at that. >> Dude, they gotta do something about flopping. I actually believe that they need a new rule. >> They gave the guy a yellow for fake flopping. >> Yeah, there's a risk. >> They did, I missed that. >> I missed that. >> What team? >> It was like early in the tournament. >> At the US game. >> Oh, yes. >> We were there. >> We were there. >> Live was live at the game. >> And then we were confused. >> We had no idea what was happening. >> There was just a way in player. >> Here's my beef with soccer. >> Please. >> You've watched soccer for a long time. That was my defense for him just liking the Olympics. Because it's what you're supposed to do is like a human. You've liked football for a long time and I give you that. >> What? >> And I don't like giving you shit. >> Watch, I played. My sister played. She was a lot better. She got money to play. >> She lived it. >> I watched the limits my whole damn life. >> Really curling. >> Yes. Literally every single Olympics I tune in. >> I'm gripped. >> I used to fucking curl my toys in the living room. >> Give me a year. >> Give me a year. I'll tell you where it was. >> I was 19 and the nine. >> There was no Olympics here. >> Fuck it actually. >> The thing is, he's probably right. >> 28. >> Because like the odds are so in his favor. >> He's very odd. >> I don't even odd year. >> 2018 Winter Olympic. >> I don't care about winter. >> You just, we just talked about curling. What the fuck? >> I don't care about, I don't, he brought up curling. >> And then you just said you watched curling. >> You just said yes. >> I said yes. >> You said yes. >> I said yes. >> I said yes. >> I said yes. >> 2012. >> 2012. >> That was a really good year. >> That's my fucking beef with soccer, bro. >> Anyway, your beef with football. >> Okay. >> London. >> So like my beef is that when a player gets fucking fake fouled and then they flop like crazy. Every the refs are kind of like, yeah, that's a foul. And the commentators are like, ah, what's going to do? Fucking no, no, you don't have the technology for this. And plays like an instant replay. They're clearly flopping. It's only the audience can see the replay. But then when it's offside, it does like the Drake's sprite commercial. >> Yes. >> Yeah, offside. Mathematically calculated, fucking, this is a rule here and it. It's like, I need similar technology for fouling. >> I felt like an 80 year old seeing his first smartphone when they went into the 3D view. And I'm like, they can do that. >> Yeah, they turned into GTA characters. >> Like they did that right away. It's kind of technology. >> It was so crazy. >> Passive thing you can do wrong in soccer. I want like everyone wears like a monitor. And if they get hit with a certain level of-- >> A force. >> Kick or force. >> I like this. >> Alarm's go off. >> Maybe like a skeletal implant. >> Yeah, a message. >> It doesn't have to wear one. >> I was supposed to do this thing where they like, we have the tech. We have the tech to track every single thing. Like a robot can determine everything perfectly. >> Yeah. >> But we don't-- >> Except for 11 art. >> And I think-- >> And then we were starting to pay them to do it for us. >> And I think, and I think in sports, they also tried to defend. And they said, "The robot doesn't need to do it all." We should have a human fuck up some of it. >> They're yes. And that is an actual argument. I remember because some guy was-- I had a speech class in college. And we had to pick a topic to like talk about. And his was why we need real refs and not robots in the NFL. Because sometimes fooling the ref is part of the game. >> Yeah. >> And at the time, I was like a very young sort of rules-oriented, you know, atheist. And I said, "What are you talking about? This is a game!" But now as I grow older, there's a little bit of spice and idea of like-- >> Sorry. >> Sorry, Reff, you were looking at my cock, weren't you, Reff? >> Pulling the ref's pants down. >> It's very analytical to video games. >> Oh, dude. >> Because video games, you can never pull one over. >> Yeah, you have to implement it with RNG. Oh, Reff looked at cock six percent of time. You got a better ref for the Cleveland game. He looks at cock two percent time. >> I have an idea for Counter-Strike. Every single Counter-Strike lobby has a ref. And players can queue to ref. >> Well, it's so viable. Oh, my God. >> And, yep, they're racist. >> Whoa. >> No, even my ref is saying the end what-- >> What is that saying about this thing? >> And they gave tools like, "Well, he's gotta say it." >> Well, he's gotta say it. >> Someone's gotta be able to do the lobby to make sure. >> He's saying it to say, "Don't say it." >> And then he says what they shouldn't say. >> By the way, this seemed like his $1500 or the steam box, or whatever. >> I've been enjoying it. I think my-- we're gonna get lit. It's gonna be another 70 reddit thread. >> They're not my shit about sports. All I do is listen to them all day. All the every single week for five years. I hate them. >> It's good. >> What? >> You don't have to read the comments all the time. >> Oh, I just read some of them. >> Most people like to show them. Most people like it. >> I agree, I agree. >> Yeah. >> I agree with that is the case. >> And they-- and you know what? They even like when you talk about sports poorly. >> You're the one that gets lit up the most about sports. 'Cause I'm always willing to be like, "I don't really know, guys. Chill on me." And you'll say some shit. And they'll be like, "Ludwig is a dog and he needs to be shot in the head." And you know what? And then it's me looking out the bus at the Dodger's game. And it's them fuming writing up the Reddit post. >> It's true. >> 'Cause I'm just at the Dodger's game watching, having a good time. >> Yeah. >> It's true. >> I don't care if I don't know it. >> Tackling. >> But like to farm my tank. >> To kill himself. >> This is my tank that's gonna put me on, hopefully, the bus. And I'll look at something else is that it's such a fucking boring game to watch. And it's more fun to play. Probably it's mainly doubles. Is my comparison? >> Yeah. >> Wait, what? >> He thinks football is like nearly doubles. >> I think he's really boring to watch. I like watching whenever you guys throw shit on, I'm like, "I'll sit and watch that game." It's hard for me. It's like a lot of nothing. And maybe some people like baseball's a lot of nothing. I think it's a lot of something. >> Dude, you know what's funny? Is if you start to view soccer like a League of Legends lane, I think you'll enjoy it more. >> How so, please? >> Well, I think a lot of soccer is. >> Who's Diana? >> It's Diana in this tournament. >> Who's Diana with level three? >> Who's Diana with level three with a knock-o? >> Diana's Morocco. >> Okay. >> It doesn't sound good. >> No, it's good. >> Is it? >> It's okay. >> They're doing great. >> They're doing well. >> Yeah, doing great. >> Okay. >> Do great notes and compare to expectations. >> And like, it's not like Haiti. >> No. >> Not like Haiti? >> No, Haiti is your AFK shaco. >> Okay. >> I'm good at it. >> I watch Haiti get vivisected. And I was like, "Damn, that looks hard." It hasn't been able to play a home game in over five years. >> Oh, that's okay. >> Yeah. >> It's okay, so Diana's running that she's mid. >> Yeah. >> They don't accuse. >> And they're taking space. And they have possession of the ball. It's very momentum-based. And they're keeping possession of the ball. And they're slowly moving up the field together. >> Okay. >> And this is kind of like a lane. >> You push the tower. >> You push the gas tower. >> This is the goal of the tower. >> And then guess what? >> What happened? >> Wave bounces. >> Fuck. >> Other team gets the ball. other pushing tower. But sometimes? Sometimes you get a solo kill and dive into tower and that's pretty lit that's hype But how many kills are getting in lane maybe three maybe this otherwise it would it would be crazy Yeah, what it's not gonna be a 10 10 fucking blood bath because then every other team is gonna be able what the fuck happened there It's so funny. I said this in front of Nick He used a different analogy to explain it to me like an autistic kid who only plays video Yeah, he's like bro. It's like one side of the field's bomb side a and the others the bomb side being everyone went a But then the bomb is over on b so they all got to go to b. I'm like Explain me how like why you have to like back pass So you cause CTS to rotate can we just enjoy this one? Messy Messy's like Timo who it was just sitting in a bush all game doing nothing With that he pops out the bush it gets a fucking vendor and it's the game really I mean I he can be anyone bro. He can be AFK donk with the DG. Oh, and then he just kills all five Fuck yeah, yeah, I I will I just give it a lot of time and I every time it's on him like well When's the fucking commercial star? Do you have a sport you like? Yeah, I like all the sports do you guys watch? Except soccer is like it's I'm just a dancer by the way. I'm she was You like likes what you like uh, yeah, I like basketball like while I like watching basketball football baseball Okay, it's fine. Yeah. Yeah, you like it.

You watch him. You like any sport. Yeah, of course if you're friends on the team Best but to the viewer messies their friend. Oh, he's like their uncle. He has the most friends. He's got the most friends It's like show Hayotani's his friend exactly. I don't look at his friend. I don't know if he had his friends. Is it what is it what what's on it? What is it and you know what I don't know. I don't know if you I don't know. It could be anything. Oh, you know, Alicia Dodgers It says Dodgers. Yeah. Oh, it's done so many cards. Yes Daiskey purin When monkey to Luffy goes to the game you will joy side and he will catch he will catch the home run ball with his Yeah, you can't really I'll give soccer is probably one of the best sports to watch animals play 100% yeah, each other and I'm supposed to play basketball. You have to like animate them, but soccer. Yeah It's only they have the puppy ball on before the Super Bowl. It's not real football. What do we do? Yeah It's not really ball but the big soccer that you can play they play a beautiful game They play the beautiful game puppy ball, but you have a real ref dude you get off size again dude betting like $60,000 for puppy ball If I get he pissed throwing the remote and shit throwing my phone because my call she bet on the puppy ball didn't go If I get mean at your girlfriend all night So if you think about it getting upset and swatting the dog has a much higher probability Spot tour is ACL dude all week. We can't go to Hawaii Sorry, but I'd like to go back. I don't think it's right. I don't think it's friends But I think a lot of people Want the thing that they like to be the best thing You know like like people doing streaming. They want their streamer to have a lot of ccv So they can be it is weird they can feel more proud of the thing that they like Yeah, and I think people who like messy and think he's the go want him to continue to be the go So they can have more evidence of fuel that he's the go and like me I like to show you Tony I want it to be fucking Sai Young winner and Lvp five time six time three time world series winner Maybe some time maybe you some time on you maybe puts a little tongue in it No, it's not so it's not like that, but maybe and the end of a pugs maybe tongues Yamamoto I have to be gay at the end of a business trip and it's with Ludwig and it show and they're like all tired and they get and it's a double It's double bed in the hotel room and Ludwig lays down instead of are you cold instead of show Hey land down in his bed Show Hey lays down in Ludwig's bed, and there's no all night.

I would have fucking crushed my eel Have you guys watched recently the it came up again a little bit ago, but it's the the Bradley Martin slapping They were in all though. Yep. Yep. It features and sort of an under under appreciated moment in that video It's a generational shirt tug from Lacey. Yeah, there's a lace turtug. I remember this actually. It's it's and you're like wow like the fact I tug Yes, after after his friend gets slapped by a larger man. Yeah, he tugs Make sure it's like when you dodge a flashbang IRL like Yeah, it's like you just kind of you know, it's more like you're watching your friend up play CSU on discord and then you dodge his flashbang Oh, man, but you go and find it for yourself. It's a bygone hero look up stable. We're on all those facelaps. It's hard to find How's that hard to try to get it removed, bro? Not even because he got slapped into embarrassing because you get laces of the one paying Yeah He takes it obviously. We've seen this a million times He's bald. He slaps Ron. Oh, it's a some tiktok at it. It might take. It takes Lacey out of the frame here, which is unfortunate So is that a coincidence that this didn't get removed? Yeah, it laces out of the frame, bro And thank god that guy was up there to react because I was wondering how to feel that shirtless guy with a SM7 baby and like Do people are raking? I'm sure everyone's seen this but people are raking off heavy and tiktoks that are just like their face like This big in the bottom corner, and it's just denying reaction to the video. They're just going like Nice Jason Derulo and they're putting on everything Jason Derulo is doing. Yeah, this is Jason Derulo method Dude, I've got the full one. All right. Let me see the shirt tug. Okay big slab. Obviously, and he's like damn really Honestly, he takes it like he's standing at his shirt and you saw it. There's no shirt tug There's a shirt fluff. It's not a tug. Can we take it to the one before he talks before? This is not happening. That's a fluff He's teasing it. Yeah, but it's not a tug. It's a fluff. No, he knows we're watching, bro Fun a lace on this show. I don't ever make fun of it. Lace is a pillar of the streaming world I think he was cooler back then Lace was cooler back then. Yeah, no for one. He wasn't core. He also didn't have tap caps He didn't have tap caps, but I think he was more interesting as the guy that looked like one of those pit bulls with the ears cut off dude Too much Too much, bro I'm like I'm like the speedgift Too much And I want to and I want to lace I know you're watching this. He's genuinely a huge fan. That's why he's acting weird Literally street list this will end. He's going to be playing Bologna or street fighter with your stream on the side Yeah, you're gonna watch the lace today and let me tell you bro the Bahamas arc has been kind of mid But I know you're trying and it's all good. What's he doing in the Bahamas content? I'm sorry I'm sorry about that That's what you think real lace dude. Lace loyal bro. This fucks me. Please is he a hawk Lace fuck you talking about be so much. What is this if they fucking like when he rolls into the fucking bed like ram us Don't like about lacy and make and I really don't like it what bro is He tweets out maybe every two weeks Seriously locking in this time giving ten thousand dollars to someone who likes his tweet I'm gonna hit a hundred whatever 80 pounds by insert date two months away And he tweets that out Maybe seven times a month With that fresh right you and it frustrates me. He lost a bunch of weight though Hasn't he successfully done this he lose the way that I think he gained a bit back And I think he wanted to lose it again, but he puts out these fake fucking things fake fake calls, he's a fake demon. - You are not, you are not understanding. - Fuck on, what the fuck, he's a fake demon. - He's a fake demon. - Fuck off. - A fake demon, pussy. - What? - Don't fucking talk about him like that. - Don't be a demon. - I'll fucking Charlie Horser. - No, no, no, please. - Fuck off, fucking face lights, I know him. - To the fuck off. - I like his ex account, I like his ex account. - Probably not. - You gotta give lace cred, 'cause he's, he's one of the few big openly bisexual streamers. - I think that's a lot of power to him right there. - You gotta give lace bread. - He came out. - I don't know, he came out. - Yeah, he's, he's the-- - Personally, personally that means a lot to me as someone to look up to. - That's beautiful, bro. - Think about that. - Yeah, you got someone, 'cause you see yourself in media now. - I see himself, see myself. And you, and before that you were underrepresented. Yeah, and you said you were looking at Woody from Toy Story, like I don't think Woody's bisexual. There's no way. - Dude, and even if he is, like was that me and to me? - I saw Toy Story 5. - Really? - Yeah. - What, you saw it early? - What do you mean? - It's out this thing. - It's out. - Oh my god, is it good? - It's good, I could cry about it. It's the third best. I want to talk about one thing. - Third best, what's your number one? - Is it four? - Three. - It's fours two. - No. - Four's on top three. - Four's the last. - Four's an amazing. - Four's an amazing. - Four is the worst choice for a movie. - You are, we've done this before. - Bucked. - For new heads, we've done this like sexy-- - Yeah, go away. - Go away, go away, go away. - Four is a wonderful movie. - I think this is fair because I think they're all good. - They're all good. - What the fuck is this? What are you talking about? - What is that? - I like it. - Doing the candy tier list. - I like candy tier lists. - So he likes them. - I don't know, they're all just delicious. - I couldn't be much. - What are you talking about? - You don't even fucking know me because I like what they like. - Yeah. - It's true, it's confusing to pick one that you don't like there. - Well, okay, I'll tell you why four is the worst. It's a spinoff. It's not canon. It is-- - Doesn't matter. - It is a beautifully animated-- - Is a beautiful movie. - Side plot. - I don't care that it's a short story. It's more beautiful than the novel. - That's where I disagree. - Yeah, you need some cohesive grand thing because you're an anime watcher. You need to like 700 episodes. But I like the beautiful piece for what it is. - You like the vignette. - Toy story four is a beautiful movement. - I like that Toy Story came out when I was born. - Yeah, that's crazy. - I like that they're hitting themes that I hit through my life. - Okay. - I mean, I was five. - Would you argue with that? - Toy Story five is the best piece of media so far on the new age of technology. It's like iPad baby, right? That's what that's the idea is. Like the toys versus the iPads. - With that commentary. It's saying a commentary, but it's a side commentary. - Yeah. - No, I get it. - Yeah. - I think the word screen age is probably more impactful. - Okay. - It is good. - Every time you say it, everyone knows what you mean. In the first time they hear it, they're like, wow, it's funny. - You can also call an adult a screenager. - Yeah. - And it's funny. - Yeah, screenager is definitely number one, but it's probably top five. - What's your list? - Well, three, one, five, two, four. I would be really interested if that matched your list. - Two is the first time we did this. - Two is good. I think he's been consistent on this. - Two's good, but two's also to me a bit of a vignette. It is a bit of a side plow. - Two is the worst one. - Two is like, I think the sleeper pick. - I think two's better. - I could see four above two. - Four is the sleeper pick. - Thank you, bro. - It's not a sleeper pick. - It's literally a sleeper pick. - Yeah, because I think inherently we are against, with IP that old, we are against making the newest one the best one in general. - Maybe it's a sleeper pick in this group, but I think if you were to look at like- - If the matrix score was universally loved, people would still be like, that's your favorite one. - 'Cause the most recent. - That's just the most recent. - Yeah, that's the way after the other one. - That's true. - That's true. I think four is tough because in a vacuum, it is really good, but I always felt like three should have just been in it. Like they should have ended it with the way three had been. - Four shouldn't exist, and then it does, and despite it's not supposed to exist, it excels, and that's also interesting. - Nick, you should make a movie, bro. - Oh yeah? - Yeah, you should make a movie, bro. - It's time now. - I think it's time to lock in this summer. - Okay. - Yes. - I think actually this lines up exactly with your clock. - What's that mean? - Remember, I was like, I'll make a movie, like it's not time for a movie. - Yeah. - You were like, it's like five years away. I think that was like five years ago. - Okay, when you're ready now. - Yeah, me. - It's, yeah, it's that with the-- - You have a subject? You have a subject? - Yeah. - Well, let's hear it, pitch me. 'Cause I'm a director, and you're a fucking famous producer. - Okay. - I got you. - I got you. - Sorry, I'm late, by the way. - Shot opens with lace. - It's a lady, she's working at a factory. - Yeah. - Okay. - All right. - Yeah, yeah, let's get it. - All right. - We stand on the shoulders of John. - Yeah, yeah. - Here I got it, all right. - So the bit there was. - It's for Dreadlock Rostas. - So we're on the street, and we're on the sidewalk just loitering around, 'cause we're teenagers, and we don't have anything to do in its summer. - A steel drum paints the scene. - And the steel drum is playing. Someone stole our radio. We can't live without music. Life without music. I can't go on. - Life without music isn't life at all. - And if a rosting got no music, a rost is basically dead. - And so we-- - That's the tagline. - And what we end up-- - Yeah. - And so we end up finding the guy who took the-- and he's in a flashy car. He's smoking a big fat cigar, and we find him, and we rip him limb from limb. - Yeah. - And we fucking kill him. - Yeah. We hook up a car battery to his legs. - Okay. - Lost Rostas. Big fucking blocky metal letters. - Bullet holes flying through it in the trailer. It's like two minutes of bullets going through the word Lost Rostas. But like, red and yellow light is coming out of the holes. - Yeah. - And you slowly lose what it says. There's so many holes in litter this. - And there's like a horror rendition of like a steel drum. - Ryan, like, the girl's gone wild thing. Look at the-- - No. It is the girl's gone wild thing. - Is it the rock? - It is that. - Because we could afford it, because it's so old and probably from a CD somewhere. We just used it, so it's the girl's gone wild theme. This is good. - That's good. Let me picture another movie. - Okay. - It's Saw 12. - It's Saw. - We're just dipping some. - Yeah. We're just gonna go further up. And the fucking-- - We have to be-- - And fucking Claude is fucking Jigsaw now. - No. - And he's probably-- - They're almost-- - For, I don't know. - You know? - There's 10 Saw movies out. - Oh my god. There's 10? - Crazy. - Look at this one. I had this thought because there's an old Ryan Higa video where he makes a parody Saw 12 trailer. And it's from 2007, and it's like, we're almost there. We're almost there Ryan, he gets-- - Who's the actor that plays Jigsaw? - It's a puppet. - I don't know his name. - Is he still alive? - He's still alive. - Tobin. His name's Tobin. Isn't that funny? - His name's Tobin. - Yeah, it's like Tobin Bell or some shit. Can you look him up, Zipper? I've seen every Saw movie. - Really? - Yeah, there it is. - Wow. - He's all the same. - Oh, it looks awesome. - He was in an episode of Seinfeld as a guy who runs a record shop. I saw it. I was blowing away. - He's in a Sopranos. - Who's he in the Sopranos? - I don't remember. - I'm Tony. - He's done a lot of shit though. - I'm Tony Sopranos. - Oh, I'm Tony Sopranos. (laughs) - That man is 83 years old. - Yeah. - That's me, Jay. - Dude. - He's awesome, dude. - What do you look like as a teenager or like a young adult? - Look up Tobin Bell Seinfeld, it's great because he's still pretty old. - I'm not an old person, plays an old person, but like they've been playing an old person our whole lives and it's like, damn. - I think about that. And I think about, you know, I'm getting older, it's my time up and then I think I can just be an old guy. - Wow. - You can be an old guy. - Wow, look at the pony, dude. - Isn't that sick, bro? - Look at that picture of him with the fucking Funko in the left side. - He looks like the grandpa that ate paint. (laughs) - Dude, he looks fucked up in that painting, grandpa. - Dude, he looks exactly like you. (laughs) - That's a crazy hole. - Oh my god, dude. The paint probably didn't taste that bad. Doesn't it look good on his lips? - Okay, wait, we never covered it. I want to hear what the vibrational energy is for you. - Okay. - He explained his, it's a better drill in a red ball, which is crazy. - Yeah. - What's your vibrational energy at today? - Light, light, coffee field, uh. - Light, what's light? - Coffee field. - You got light energy. - What's light? - He just said light, what does that mean? - Light, light. - Like light energy, bro. - I can write down your notebook in like a fucking any second now. - Is that what you interpreted light as? - No, I mean, I sort of thought it was just sort of like something like, like floaty. - He explained it. - He explained it and then I immediately disagreed. - He means light, like I'm conning, like I see five steps right here. - He means like elegant, like he means like sharp, like quick on his feet, like Hermes. - Oh, yeah, okay. - Be careful. - Nimble. - Nimble. - Nimble. - He means nimble. - What's going on, man? - Nothing's got me, man. I'm just beating all of you guys. - And what? - And what? - 784. - I just checked. I just checked. I think I got dinged. How did you get, how did you check it? - Did you check it with Ryan Money? - Here's two things I did. - I check my credit score with Rock-a-Money. And I improved my credit with Rock-a-Money. You guys know it as the place to check the monthly bills. Oh, what is it, bitch? - I'm 780. - What is it, pussy? - I'm so mad. - Oh my god, they're so good for you. You're so big for us.

We're going to get out of the side and we'll go back to the episode. -Don't do that face anymore. -Don't do that fucking face again. -I've been trying to do it. Don't do it. -It doesn't score at 360. -Stop it. It doesn't. -Don't do it again. -I'm like letting you do it. -I'm like it. -What's your vibrational energies? -Trudging plotting. -Ofish. -Root. -No, no, no, no. -Trudging to trudge is to stop plodding. -You look rude if she's in today. -But I'm plotting. -But I'm plotting. I'm dragging. -Plotting with a deer with a tee. -Dee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee. -Got it. -Dee-dee-dee. -Yeah, to me, this sounds Ofish. Explain how it's not. -Ofish, she implies ignorance to my steps. -Okay. -There's intentionality behind it. -You trudge and you plod. -Sloff. -Maybe like a Gears of Orgai with a chest armor. -Yes. Or an angry childhood boy. And they would plod to the room. -You have a plan. -But they don't do it officially. -This isn't good. -This isn't good. -What was I asked to bring good energy today? -I feel like what do you do? -To be fair, it's implied, but you're right. -I was asked to tell my energy. -You should be bringing good energy for the show we do. -Well. -But instead, you're a boy. -I can tell you why. -Please. -It's your fault. -Colorosa doesn't stole his music. -It's a great song. -Colorosa doesn't stole my music. -What are you talking about? Intro movie. It's called The Beat-Off. Boy in his room starts banging different sounds. -Okay, better. -Look at what you'll have. -Nothing. -I like it so far. -The Beat-Off opens to a boy in his room. -It is banging different objects. Goes out stairs. Mother shot his father in the head. Watch this happen. Mother looks boy in the eyes, throws one recorder down. And she says, "Give this place. She shoots herself in the head." He goes upstairs. He goes, "Finally, he uses the device to record the different beats and noises he's made." -He tapes over. -He's pretty much fully nonverbal. Didn't even really understand. -Great. Another object. -Taken by child services to you guest at Jamaica. -All he has is his recorder. -It's like the good doctor. It's the good producer. He's like an autistic white kid in Jamaica. -It's making the best reggaeton and the best reggae in the world. -I love the idea of all of this. And then it just cuts to m.r in the booth. -Okay, they will knock it. -No, okay, they will knock it. -The movie goes like 20 years later. -It's m.r. -It's a no-play with me. -Yeah. -So this is the good wrap line. -Are we funding this? -Slime's fault. -We are refunding it. -Are we funding first off? Are we funding my movie? -The question isn't if it's how much. -That's a good question. -We have a budget for this. -I think we can do it 70K. No questions asked. -That was a dollar. -We'll buy it. -Who are we casting? -We got Indy never ready. -Yeah, she's on board. -She's in, bro. -No talent from Turkey. -No talent for we can't afford it. -We can't afford it. -We can't do expensive. -Let's do expensive. -Set something was in my fault. -I'm on my own with baited breath. -Oh, my energy. -Yeah, well, of course it's your fault. -What's your fault? -Well, I have a show match against Tyler this week. And I, you know, Slime's been chirping at me to practice. -Like every day. -I booted up. I booted up my practice session. I have an Alta count. And I showed a character I shouldn't have. -You showed my JP. -It's so grown accident. -Yep. -Well, no, because I had it logged in and I didn't switch team accounts because I have an Alta count. -You blew the whole operation. -And now I have Tyler won every day, grinding against JP. -Dude, you are fucking so fucked. -Because I get updates from Tim. And Tim's like, he's grinding against JP. It's fucking over. And I'm like, I know Tim. -You were so close. -And now, and now I need to switch. -You're going to switch again. -He's practicing JP. -It's funny because-- -It's funny because you just got to get-- -That's where your character's entered the ring. -That's the third character. -Ingred. -With a week to go? -With five days. -Maybe. -Five days. -Just stick with it, bro. Don't get a third character. -This is only shit about this. -Just keep going JP. -I am the Street Fighter player among the house in the office. And I'm like, I'm always like, "Hey, what are you doing?" -I'm on the fucking-- -Get off the fucking game. -It's a decent thing. -And he'll just have a coffee event. Nope. And he'll just walk out. And I'm like-- -I'm like, I'm trying. -Dude, you're going to prove Cosmonaut Markey right. -Is that? -My fucking guy. It doesn't matter. -He's my guy, bro. -Yeah, I did watch a couple FGC videos. One had 17 views. And it was like, "Why Tyler 1 versus Ludwig is a horrible show match?" -Yeah. -And he brought up a lot of good points. I was like, you know, unfortunately. -Dude, I just doesn't have the audience to deserve, but-- -Yeah, Tyler fires up. He's like getting people to play JP against him. -Yeah. -And then he actually starts to go like 0 and 15. And I'm like-- -Okay. -Okay. -Then he keeps playing. -I think he's playing. He starts to learn some things. But like, that's a 0, 15. That's a first to take. Imagine that was you! Oh my god, I'm so mad. -A title. -God, damn it. But it's funny. I was watching him and he-- There-- He-- Like, a guy came into his chat after beating him and was like, "GG Smileyface." And Tyler just banned him. And it was like very unceremonious. -Yes. -And this guy went on a subreddit specifically for getting Matt at Street Fighter and posted it. -The Street Fighter hates subreddit. -Yeah. And there was like a huge thread. And Tyler just read it. And he's like, "This is insane." -There is a really funny comment. It is just talking shit on him. And they basically wrap up and they're surmised their entire hate comment on his like play style. And he's miserable probably in his personal life. And he's able to afford all of his things. Thanks to Daddy's money. -Daddy's money. -Yeah. -Is it Daddy's money? It tells you he's like, "What the fuck are they talking about?" -Yeah. -It's so crazy. -They're really schizophrenic, seriously. -The hate comment. -The hate comment, yeah. -They said Daddy's money got him there. -Tyla one, Tyler one, Daddy's money. -Tyla one got there with Daddy's money. -I think this is the thing. It's when the schizophrenic haters can't even, it's just you could just use the truth sometimes. It's like when they come, it's like the one thing you can't do when you come for Anthony is say, is say, Ludwig gave you everything. You just can't do it. As soon as you say that, I would make the argument. It's like, "Okay, you clearly know nothing." -I saw that this weekend, actually. -Oh my god, bro. -Because I woke up to a Twitter threat I was tagged in. -This was all okay. -Tell me what happened. -The Street Fighter is an amazing video game. -Street Fighter 6. -Why are you beefing with the city of Vancouver? -I wasn't the city of Vancouver. I'm tired of this shit. -I don't like-- -So Kyle. -What? -Then Kyle, bro. -Thank Kyle. -No, Kyle would kill whoever I asked. It hit me to kill him for to do it. -Two. -Two, he offers preemptively. -I fucking up playing Street Fighter. It's three in the morning. I'm 1390 with Akuma at this moment. It's looking bad. -That's rough. -Yeah, I'm really 1590. -I'm with Akuma. I'm learning a new character and it's really hard and I'm not good at him and I suck anyway. Capcom sometimes will serve you up a game because it's trying to get you into a game and it will serve you up somebody who is astronomically better than you. 1390 is extremely, it's super, we call it super low. You're not supposed to be in there. It's a place where you rest and heal your wounds and all the enemies respawn. And then you change your estus last and then you go out into the world again. -Everyone in the elo is like two words in a number. Is there a number tag? -Yes. And dude, Capcom serves me up an ultimate master, 1800 rated Zangief. -That's 1800. -1800. -That's fucked up. -And I've run my eyes because this is annoying. -Because Nuckeldo's guy was like 1800. -Yeah, and he's a pro player. And pro players, you don't like grind online in a game. -Yeah, grind, but like he's sitting at it. If he boosts up a-- -Do you throw like 2000 or something? -Yeah, if you actually grind it, if you actually try. -But so, and it loads up and it's Zangief which is an annoying matchup for everybody. And I'm like, okay, and I play the best I've ever played in my life. Genuinely. Genuinely that I'm doing shit with Akuma. Like I only thought about it, but never practice. But I'm like, I'll try it now, fuck it. I'm one hit away from killing this guy and taking his points. I would probably like 20 points. which is astronomical for one game, and I just fuck it up. Uh, I actually have, if you want to look at a zipper on my Twitter, if you scroll through all the shit, there's a video of me playing Street Fighter. A lot of scrolling for you, Zipper. It's not that far down. You just keep going. Yeah, it's this one. Just play the song, too, or the volume. Oh, he kills me immediately from here. And that was game two. I would have taken the whole set. And so this guy, his name is Loody Lou. And I almost beat him. He beats me after this game. And he leaves. So he won and done. He won and does me, which is a way to say, well, I look like a hero. I'm 1399. I look like a hero because this guy, he's, he's 2000 MR. I thought it was 1800. He's 600 MR. Yeah, 2000's insane. 2000's like, you, bro, you might just straight up go to high master. If you went this game, dude, it was crazy. And so, so he's got his name and his thing. What are you immediately, sir? I think he changed it because I think it used to say TTV. And then, oh, it says it in his, in his club thing. Yeah. And I'm like, okay, you have a TTV. It's time to be angry. And I go, I look up his Twitch channel. And I find him. And there's him. And he's on Twitter. And so I find his Twitter. And I at him, I say a little too close for comfort. I'll pussy because he won and done because he won and done. This is three in the morning, which is why in part Tyler receives so many hate threads. Because he's a champion of one and done, then blocked. Yeah, which I don't really appreciate. I'll, I'll want and done sometimes. It's a sometimes food. But he does it a lot. He also Tyler, the other day, he was like, I don't block anymore. I don't block. I haven't blocked in a while. He blocks. He blocks. He blocks less. He blocks less. But he blocked. His block list might have filled up because Capcom. He cleared it. He cleared it. Oh, right. He did like a stream where he cleared it. And then the notifications go for every. So you can like spam on clear. But then every notification for every block comes up. So it's like over the next hour, he's just going like, you don't block. You don't block. Oh, my God. He doesn't go during the game. So it's only in the lobby. So I, so I, I know I tweeted this guy and he replies to me. He's like, sorry, I would have played you again if it was for literally any points because the point discrepancy was so massive. This never happens that he won and he got zero. He usually get like one, but I was such a bad player. He got no points. He basically could only ever get nothing and lose probably 20 points, which is a lot of progress if he's in that high. And I said, and I call them like a pig. And I said, you're a pussy. Fuck you. You look, you just love your little points, pig. Cause I always beat the guy. I, you know, I'm just like, you want a guy, right? You want a shot. You want a shot. And then, and then he said, yes, sorry again. Like, I don't know. You played pretty good. Have a good night, which I take as immediately condescending, because I'm insane. Right. And then I say all that MR and no motion, hate to see it. And then he got really mad. And this devolved and I'm not getting four hours of us just screaming at each other on Twitter, on Twitter. At one point I got dragged in. I don't know what he said. Once you get your fucking daddy, why don't we fucking suck your fucking dick penis and lick his balls and give you fucking money. And he's like, why don't you money match me pussy? He's like, I'm like, I'm not going to mind you. I was gonna play. I'm not going to mind you beat me. I don't want to do it. You're pussy. You're supposed to rematch your pussy. And like, and he's like, you're fucking second-fugged dick pussy. And it's, it's really bad. And eventually it devolves into, yeah. If you weren't 1300, you get a rematch, no one rematching for earlier points. If you got some much motion, we can money match. Don't fuck it pussy. Oh, and here's what I got. I said, this was the worst. This was on his Twitch page. It said, FAQ, are you budget psychano? He said yes. And it has like a little cheeky part of, uh, basically red hair to psychro. Very dizzy. I would think that psychically. Yeah. Okay. So we're, and this goes for like four hours. And eventually it evolves into him being so pampering these other things that are sort of outside the game. I say, I'm annoyed at this. Do you want to fight me? And then he said, yeah, let's box win, which I said I would love to. I would love to box. And he's like, oh, good. I'll fly to L.A. You don't have to pay a dime. He's like, you don't have to pay a dime. It's like, it's probably five in the morning at this point. I said, I would love that. I would love that. Come to L.A. next week. He says, if I could go to America, what are you going to fly me out? I'm like, are you lost? Really though, we both lost because we're both being so pathetic, right? This is really over the course of five hours every single night. Can I ask like in between every tweet? Like, what are you doing? Like, because like you send out a tweet, you fire off a tweet. Like, let's pause for a moment. You say, who the fuck cares about kudos? Low greedy piggy wants two kinds of points. These don't cream pie anyone at evo, bro. Like you'd like that. What are you doing? Sure. That's a great question. A lot of week. Yeah. Usually if, if the conversation is moving fast enough, I'm kind of just at my computer. Like, I don't know, watching a stream or something, waiting for the reply. You're like, are you refreshing? No, no, because my phone tells me I don't need to refresh. If the conversation, if it's like someone doesn't reply very fast because I have a lot of free time, I'll just be doing something else. I'll just sometimes I go on a walk and I do this. But this one doesn't sound like it was fast moving. No, this one, no, it was fast moving. This one was fast moving. This one had both of our wrapped attention. So it devils into this whole thing. So this is, this is the day for both of you. This is insane. It's a night, Ludwig. So at least there's more. So I, I did it more fun at end of year. It didn't, because there's multiple, how these work is that people will reply twice. And then it goes into different branching. They're kind of what it's fine. It is frustrating. Anyway, we, he, I end up eventually saying, I'm fucking annoyed at you. This is insane. I, you know, I am also, I'm not the winner in this situation. We both look insane and pathetic. And I was like, I'm not giving you any more attention. And I said that and then I gave him more attention. And then I was like, no, I'm really not doing it. It's like, okay, it starts DMing me. And I just say, you know what, dude, go discord. Go discord. Right. Fucking now. It's print review. Go discord. Go discord. Go discord. I say, I think a bunch. I said, go discord. Come on. And I give him my discord. I give him my discord. He adds me. What time is this? I can look. As if you could just go to slimes replies, like, not the threads. I just want to see like, I just want to see the troll at times. There's a five in the morning, dude, six, 19, five in the morning. He's West Coast Canada. So it's the same time for him. The same time. This was a 41 minute call. A five. I have five in the morning. Yes. And the match happened that you initially play the rose during this call at three. You initially played at three a.m. Yes. Okay. So this all happens over the course of basically like two, three hours. Yes. And so we get on this call. And immediately, I am not the, I, when I do things like this, I am not intending to like, so fucking own a guy or anything like that. I'm exhausted. And I'm like, what bro? Let's, okay. Let's talk about this. So funny to jump into the call and be like, what bro? No, no, no. It was you through the first stone. Well, I did throw the first stone, but he also didn't rematch me. He threw the first stone. You're supposed to rematch. And if you don't, okay. But the funny thing is we go in and I was like, okay, let's explain how we feel. And then he immediately in a very reasonable and like thoughtful thing to say, he was like, how about I say everything I want to say uninterrupted. And then you say what you want to say uninterrupted. And I actually protested. And he's like, uh, and he's like, that's fine. You can go first. And I was like, okay, I will. So I think that. And then we just, we broke down the whole situation. And we found all the pressure points. He's like, here's why people want and done. If there's no points, it's because the grind to legend is really, really tough. And it's literally zero EV. And I say, I philosophically disagree with that. Finding games are meant to be played no matter what, even if Capcom served us up this horrible match. He's like, I disagree. And I'm like, that's totally fine. And then we're talking about he was like, oh, by the way, from the picture of the two, the two guys on chairs made out of their own brain. He's so good at communicating. Also, he sounds just like, like, Kuno, I get it. So in the reason why, I guess, did you bring it up to him? Yeah. Well, no, I didn't, but we talked about who we are. But the reason why I kind of this brought up, because you said something like people like say, fuck, you wanna make me type shit, which is like, it's like half true. But that it's, it's only half true. So when you try to defend it, you look like you're defending a whole truth, which is really annoying and feels like shit. But he said, I don't know anything about you. And I'm like, really? He's like, yeah, bro, I saw you on a Ludwig video like six years ago. I just did, I don't know anything. I was just saying that. And I'm like, yeah, that makes sense. And he was explaining he was so mad because he is a creator who had a moment and then his moment kind of faded away, which is common and normal. And it was back in like the Amoga stays or something where he, he was like in, in Valorant lobbies and he sounded just like, like, Kuno. So he was like playing with those guys, like, OTV people as like a novelty. And he fucking does. He sounds just like him. It's crazy. And so, and he's really, he's like, he used to be challenging. He was like radiant and fucking valorate and now he's like ready for, he's trying to be a pro street fighter player. So it's like a guy who's really good at games, right? Anyway, I'm learning all this about him and we talked about the pressure points of what pissed us off and what I said is when I said you have no motion, it was like a larger creator being like, you're a broke bitch. And I was like, hand to God, hand to God, bro. And I'm sorry. I'm 36. I meant it like aura. I swear to Jesus Christ. I was not trying to shit on you. I was trying to keep this in the game and I was just saying you're a nerd who plays for points only and he's like, I understand. And I was like, I understand you now. Anyway, this is a 40 minute conversation. How old is he? 26. Wow. What? I had so much younger than I thought. He called himself aunk and I was like, I mean, he's been in the game for a while for that age. Like he must have started very young. Yeah. And it was his whole thing and it's his natural voice. It's straight up. He just sounds like him and that's fair. And we talked about like all this. We just talked and like after we like set it aside, we just got to know each other. So funny. And he's a great guy. He's a great guy. He's a whole in it. He's a great guy. He's a whole in it. He's a great guy. Now my sleep bag is a whole. And he said that. And I was like, come on in bro. He does him bro. I'm cold. I'm cold. It's so interesting. You know, I had podcasts. Because like, it begs the questions. Like if this is, if this happens so frequently when slime really just meets someone, you know? Yeah. Does it mean that you ought to be a little slower to fire when you don't know someone and be like, you're fucking pedophile. Here's the thing. Here's the thing, bro. Listen bro. Listen bro. And fucking listen. And I'm all ears. And I love that. Here's the thing is that this one I was playing by the rules for all of it except when I said the motion thing and I kind of used the wrong vocabulary. And it was an honest mistake. I was playing by the rules as I wasn't going after anything that wasn't available to anybody else on a very surface level thing. I wasn't looking at his profile being like, okay, he used to do shit. But now he does it in this and that and like, I was not doing this. You're saying this could reasonably be taken as a personal hit, but you didn't mean it personal. Yes. Like a over the line. You kept it in case. Instead of trying to keep it in good. Instead of you being a nerd. Switch profile on his thing. He's saying come look at it, right? So I think everything there is fair game. This is pretty common in Street Fighter matchmaking as well. If you have TTV in your name, you're kind of like, you were kind of saying people come talk to me. That's why my name is George Boyle's TV. That's every game. Sure. And so, so that's my argument. But I said the wrong word that he interpreted as like, this is. You fell off. Yeah, you fell off, which is kind of a cruel thing to do and a cruel leap, which I agree with. I wasn't trying to do that. And I think that's different calling that a pedophile, because we were essentially doing that. I was like, you're a greedy pig pedophile. The place for points. And it's like, well, you're a fucking shitty or new shit or new who's going to be shit forever and you're going to die a shitter. And I'm like, this is all in the game. This is all in the realm. I think I do agree that he threw the first stone, because you were basically a secret chopper. Like he's he's playing who he believes to be a random person who'll never interact with. And he won and done some. And then he goes, I get away with it. He would never do it in person. Well, I think the in person you sit down and someone, you don't play one time with GGs and stand up and leave the street fighter rank to such a different experience. I don't. I don't. It's generational. It's generational gap. That competition never served that up insane. No, I understand. And I don't, I think he's reasonable for one in done it, but it's the first stone because I get it because if you were not, if you were in person, he would give you a couple more games because socially, that makes more sense to do. But online, you get a shield because I'm never going to meet this guy or talk to him. So I'll do whatever I want. I guess his. There's no fucking found you. There's no points in person. There's no point. There's no point. There's no point in person. This is social. This is common. And it's not just him. This is like everybody. And this is just how the system works and how if you want to climb and get legend rank and have at the end of your shit, then this is what you kind of need to do. I'm just defending the idea that this is a first stone because most people would be like, you through the first stone by commenting. No, no, no, no. I think anyone who plays street fighter and gets one in done, they understand. This is the, that is a stone being thrown at your head, even if it's a tiny one. This is a critical detail in my mind. Please. District fighter, display your win and loss count on your profile anywhere. Your total wins and losses for like that season or anything. Oh, yeah, but you have to like dig for it. Okay. But it's not like displayed. No, no. They just give you your MR and go on be a, be a family man. Yeah. And because I, something I like about Slippy and something that was in, maybe embedded in me because in Mario Stryker's charge online, the, uh, the point system was actually fairly bad, but it did track your wins and losses straight on the leaderboard. And having a cool win loss ratio, much like the Slippy leaderboard. Like when you're like a hundred and one, that penis, that's why that's a, and it's like, you could be, you could be 40th on the Slippy leaderboard and be like 400 and 200. Yeah. That's not cool. Yeah, it's, it's sort of a more crude way instead of the developed, like, elo system that Street Fighter has that takes place of that. So even when you have a gap, you have this weird psychological thing to still play for. But if it's not displayed on your profile, that's right. That's right. Tyler one really made the, the 1,980 loss guy ratio look cool with chess. Yeah. Like he's got like 10,000 wins and nine, and 9,000 losses. It's, it's the human spirit, right? It's like, it's down Slippy, and that's for us. That's it. That's it. Mr. Mario player for rock and he was the, the guy I was talking to was explaining it. And it all made sense. I just disagreed. And he's like, he's like, I really want to fucking hit legend and playing for zero points against the guy that maybe could be like, you almost beat me is like, not the way. And I'm like, yes. So I, I do think the stone was thrown. I look, the thing is, I had a hundred zero matchup that I kind of threw in terms of social equity because I got annoyed and was like, replying too much. I, I look like a hero, like I barely almost fucking beat him if I didn't DP or if I cross cut. And I'm like, what can you do? And I'm waving my little dicker and like that, that was where it kind of should have ended. But in a way, I'm kind of glad because I don't know, he's like, it was nice. It was nice to sit down after all of that and break red. You guys are closer acquaintances now for all of this than you would have been, yes. In a, in a reality where you just reached out and said, G G's bro, or he rematched and then you both went on your merry way. Yeah. Yeah. And this is weirdly the best time. I know. Isn't that weird? I thought about that a lot. Anyways, going to even someone to say what's up. It's beautiful. So that's what I was doing. Bring your fucking gloves, bro. Yeah. Bring the gloves bar, bro. You should spar, bro. We were just the equal amount of insane rage. That was like when I, when I met Aaron on Xbox and we were saying we would fight each other. But then we learned we went to the same schools each other because I, we met and it was like, I don't want to fight you. And he's like, I don't want to fight you either, but we wouldn't of like neither of us would do. I'll fucking fight you, bro. You go to the West School. Yuck, bro. That's good. It's really close. I was telling him. I was like, yeah. And I was, I was thinking about the logistics and I was like, okay, if we did something like this, like we would have to sign some of our waiver. He was like, I was thinking about waiver too, because I don't want to like you to sue me. Cause like, I would never sue you, bro. We would just fight. It was very, we were like, he's like a, in a way, he's very like me, except the huge, just key difference is he's just way better at games. He has better hands. He has better hands. Well, what's the, uh, there's states you can do it Washington, I think, right? Oh, yeah. They have, uh, they have a, a dual agreement. Oh, really? Yeah, you don't need to wait over there. Just need to agree to the dual. Don't ever, don't ever move to a place with a dual agreement. They're amazing. You don't mean that, bro. Smash boxing event. I remember that. Oh, that's why they did that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It looked, they looked dangerous. You concussions. They were thinking this looks dangerous. I'm trying to think of who it was, easy, easy, homey, that you know, he was in a button video. I mean, a YouTube video about it. Oops. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, that was loody, loody. He's cool. So the following. Well, we come together every week, Jimmy, and we recap what you've done on Twitter over the weekend and the, and the, the consequences of it. Yeah. This one actually has kind of a beautiful end it. Well, this one was more like real than anything else because it started arguably like in a more justified place. Even for both of us, he's like, cause he was nice when I said you want to done me. He's like, I'm not playing for zero point. Sorry, bud. And I was like, fuck you, which is also funny. But the other shit, like I had a viral tweet, fucking yesterday and because about how if you use weights, you'll hurt your shoulder. And I was like, I did this and I hurt my shoulder, but you feel like Brian from Tekken and people were like criticizing me. And I'm like, well, I hate this. I hate the algorithm picks a tweet up and it ships it out to the general Twitter audience. And I just hate when I have this happen to me, bro, cause I razor. Oh my god. It was crazy. Racer made the Viper before. And I was like, I'm a big Viper fan. I'm going to order the new Viper before I've used every Viper in the whole series. And so I order it and it comes. Like it was it was shipped just using the water of the ocean, but they just shipped it with the tide. I took it off my doors. I'm not kidding. It just disintegrated in my hand. The whole, the box that came in, the box of the product, everything was soaking wet. And I just like, I could, I literally ripped it like a phone book and then the mouse was in the middle. I was like, dude, what the fuck happened? So I, I angrily, I immediately go to razor support and I'm like, hey, here's pictures of my box. I'm thinking this is like a layup, like just get me a new one and they're like "Yeah, yeah, we can totally get you a new one. "Here to sign this whole form, "and then you got to ship it back to us." And I was like, "No." I was like, at a principal, I was like, "No, I won't do that." - This adds up to that. - I'm not gonna ship it back. I want a gesture. I was like, I want a gesture. I've had every right firm that fucking passed. You're gonna send me a new, I just wanna do one. Nope, I'm not gonna ship it back. This is a broken up product. This doesn't work. - Wow. - And they're like, "Dignit." - They're like, "Look, can't do it." And I'm like, "You're gonna do it." You're gonna, I'm like, "You're gonna, whether or not you do it, this is going to happen." So you should be the, "I literally said this guy, look me in my virtual eyes "and tell me this is not insane." But you, this is not a very fair gesture I'm asking for. He's like, "Poly understand, can't do it." And I'm like, "Okay, fine. "But we're gonna go the niche fucking internet route. "And I'm gonna make a tweet." - Let me make a tweet. - Oh, so that's when you, where's it? - Don't you shit up on that. - So immediately, immediately, I tweet it raised. And I say, "Look, bro, thanks for the new mouse, bro. "I love the new mouse, bro. "Why was it in the ocean, bro?" (laughing) Okay? - For some reason. - And then I immediately tag a lot of it. I want the best chance. I mean, I tag a lot of us that bro do something with your fucking career, bro. - It is true. - Plus one reads, we, bro. - As much as I want to be critical of him right now, he is right on this. - No, he's not. - You never use your faith for anything. - First off, I'm an alien, where sponsored player. - Dude, so I don't, I don't, I don't-- - This is a lab for you. - Who? - Because Alienware's like, "Shit, they're melting." - The razor products come in the wind from the ocean. Imagine Ludwig was like, "Hey, that's crazy, Nick," and Alienware has some great peripherals. - You're like, "Shit, they're melting." - Actually, I could have gotten a tattoo of it. - I actually should have gotten a tattoo of it. - You don't think of a shit like that. - And then I would tweet again, and I would be like, "Fuck it, I'm done with razor." (laughing) "I'm done with, I need something alien to wear." (laughing) - Do you understand? - You show me out of this world. - And you left me at the dry, it's fine. It doesn't matter. And so this, for some reason, this tweet pops off like more than any of my tweets recently. It's like 20,000 likes, I'm crazy shit. And it goes into this weird part of the algorithm of people. They're not mad about my first tweet. They're mad about my Ludwig reply. And they're all replying about half of them are saying like, "Bro, why are you tweeting at like Ludwig for this?" Like he doesn't know you, he's not gonna reply to you, bro. That's half of them. And then the other ones are like, " Ludwig's a piece of shit, bro." Like why are you asking him? Also people who don't understand our relationship to each other. And I was like, "Where did this go?" - Some of them were like, "Why would you order a razor product stupidly?" - And then there were some people who were like, "Yeah, that's what you get for ordering razor." And then people are applying like, "Actually, razor mice are pretty good." And they're like, "No, it's not kill yourself." And they're like, "I've been using razor for a long time." And I'm like, "Who are you?" - Yeah, and then one of them's doing a Hitler suit and it's like, "Shut up, Norm Groyd." You'll never own a mouse that is worthy of your white hands. - So all these weird bacteria are mingling and dividing in my replies. And then, look at my DMs. - Oh, razor support. - Hello. - I won't say her name, don't you blur that. Hello. - I'm not too. From razor support. I'm from the influencer team. - Oh, from the influencer team. - Hey, brands. - Hey, brands. - Hey, brands. - Let me, let me. - You hate him for a win. - No, let me set you up with the VIP package for the Viper Vivo. - Oh my god, I would enjoy that. I immediately rushed back to the chat box from the support. And I said, "Look, bro, look bro, I got what I wanted, bro." I got what I wanted, bro. - Oh, you did not do that. - You two are both demons. - No, I just replied to the ticket. - And you said, "I got what I wanted, bro." - You are both, you're a little great. - You are with this outrage right here. - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. And Aiden's not off the hook. I was like, "I'm the hook of lunch." - Shut up. - And I was like, "You wanna go on a fucking date?" It was me, and I had flies going off. But yeah, best, a big stinky clock. He's like the pain like the grandma. - She's like, "I have to fucking pay." She's like, "You know." And I'm like, "Okay." And then I get into my Lamborghini. Well, I get into my like, souped-up civic. - I have no idea how to type bar. - Yeah, I get into my type bar. - I get into my, yeah, I get into my type bar. And she's like, "Oh, that's your car?" Well, maybe I can use a VIP package with the extra mouse pads that have five different friction settings. I'll give you all the friction settings. I was like, "Oh, yeah, it's different than the video." 'Cause I thought-- - Yeah, in the video, you're supposed to be like, "No." - I don't need it. - And you literally say that. - You didn't really want that. - 'Cause I want the mouse that replaces the one I bought. - I think you guys have all changed. - Oh! - Oh! - And you're all giving me examples of ways we have used this new platform we have. - I think I've changed a little bit, but I think I'm most of the same. - This is the best way to use it. - These are all uses, or maybe in other people's one of you's abuses of their platform. Eight is not free from this. I'll give you eight in story. - Oh, for he's defending Razor, which is, "What are you doing?" - Let me let-- - Let me let me put him down. - The shipping company fucked it up. Razor has nothing to do with this. - Buy it from Razor, or like Amazon. - On the Razor website. - That's a homie move. - Yeah, you're right. - The truck and the driver you say, "I know you're trying to buy Razor." - You're right. - When you buy it from the website, that's a homie move for the brand. - Well, a yard fan receives a damaged package, and they go, "My thing's all fucked up. What do we do?" - What? - What do we do when they receive a damaged package? - I, it depends. - It depends? - It depends. - Depends on how famous you are, bitch. - Refund them? - If they were like, I just want a new shirt. - Immediately refund them. It's going to be a new shirt instead. And then you say, "No." And then it's damaged. I said I'm going to a new shirt. - Why couldn't he just say that? Why was he-- - Why was he saying that? - But he comes with a new shirt. - He comes with a new shirt instead. - He comes with a new shirt. - The reasonable, just sure to a fan. As you just, you just do the hard part for them, you just send them a new one. 'Cause what? - It's fucking 10 bucks for us. And it's a big difference for them. And Razor, it's a massive corporation. - Probably one might speak or something. - The difference is that if a shirt shows up damage, it doesn't like, they can't send it in and then we do some miracle fix. The shirt is just damaged. - They don't fix the mouth. - They're not going to fix the water damage. - Yeah, they don't fix that. They end up giving in refurbish to hell and they send you a new mouth. - So I've been going to the coffee shop that I go into in my city and every time I go, they got the little square reader and I buy my coffee and I keep racking up points. And they asked me, "Hey, do you want to spend your points?" - Yeah, like a lot of free coffees and I'm like, "Uh-uh." - I want it to build. - I have to require. - I want it to go up. - On the floor. - More. - Well, I'm going to do more. - I want the most points that anyone can ever have. - Can I tell you? - It'd be pretty smart to spend them. I'm not going to. - No. - I'm not going to go with a square reader. - I'll let it build up. - If you don't know what square, you can use it to take payments in person or online or on the go. And you can even set up a rewards program. I use my rewards program. - Mine's bulging out. - The thing you want to start to fill, it's a filled, I might tell me to be filled with the point. - I thought it couldn't fill more, but it keeps filling more and inflating. - There's more to square than just filling. - Oh, really? - Yeah, yeah. - I feel like filling and getting as big as you can. - Track inventory and sales, you take sales, it's like really good for any business, any size. - And the business is low. - Like the coffee shop could be accessing their earnings with square banking. - Yeah. - But I'm acquiring the point. - And the thought that one day I could unleash all the points at once, it's just riveting, but I'm not kidding. - I mean, the cool thing is that, I guess, it scales with your business. - I want to be so full of points that they have to come out. - Right. - The point have to leave. - Well, one day they'll need to. - They'll burst out. - One day they'll burst. I will have a choice. - Oh, come on out. - 50 points out of every orifice. - There's a 53% increase in sales for square members. So I think if you join the square loyalty program, that'll help too. - To be loyal. - Okay. - Well, if you're starting to lose customers, never gives up his point. - If you're starting a business, you're running one that deserves better tools. Square helps you sell, manage, and grow without slowing down. - I can't slow down. - Grow. - Right now, right now get up to $200 off square hardware at square.com/go/yard. - A choir. - That's squa.re.com/go/yard. Run your business smarter as square gets started today. - Oh, it's good. - It's starting to never stop. - What is it? - My points are going to spin. - Oh. - That's okay. You should spend them. - I'm going to keep them. - You're a keeper, man. - Guys, look, I think, I think, you know, we made this podcast a few years ago. - Five years. - Five years. - Almost five years. - Almost five years. - I wanted you guys to get rich. You guys got rich. Now you guys have big platforms, and you're using it to harass smaller creators. - I've been doing this since I had a-- - You're using it to get free gifts from corporations. - Yeah. - But I think Aida might be the worst. - Aint shit free. - Wait, what are you doing? - What are you doing? - I do. - Aida, tell me what I did. - He has the talking hat. - Because we're at a meeting, and we're talking about actually tip to tip three, and Aiden leaves. - This is going to be Israel, spoiler. - It's-- - Well, that's just one part of it. [laughter] - Goes through many different regions. - I leave. - Aiden leaves, and someone shows up to the warehouse. And Liza, who's in the meeting leaves for like a while, what's going on? She comes back. I shit you not. Three massive trays of sushi. - Yeah. - Like, you would not believe you for this. - I remember this. - The size of this grill. - It was an amazing amount of sushi. - And I didn't know it was coming. And everyone's like-- - Everyone starts feasting. - You know what I'm saying? - It's all the stone cold. - I feasted too. - Did you feast? - I didn't get to feast. - My research is feasting on a sushi. And as I'm feasting, where is this? - I'm famine. - Where is this sushi from? This is delicious. - This is delicious. - This is beautiful. - This is what I've said all. - And it turns out Aiden had been reached out to by a viewer who worked at a sushi restaurant. And the viewer said, "Do you want a taste?" And Aiden goes, "Give me a taste." - You made me eat viewer sushi. - I actually-- - This is like a old boy! - You guys are more rocks. - Do you actually think that's what happened? - Yeah, yeah. - A bar for bar. - A bar for bar? - You made me eat viewer sushi. - I'm the only one who has fucking-- - Hey, do you want this a sushi while he tells us what we have? - I don't even know what it was a fucking shame. - What? - What happened? He runs his own catering business and reached out to cater our events and I said, "Wow, that sounds great. I'll hand you off to our producer, Liza, who can talk to you about hiring you for events in the future." And then they separately coordinated Asushi Sampler to see if they hire his catering company for future events. If you think that is the same, you are evil. Aiden, use this person to get a taste and let me tell you, I have- No, I didn't even communicate with them because I heard that story too. It's really hard to- No, it's a- So listen to the story. It's part of what we did. A movement in my time, we had an event, we did not cater no sushi, but we did get a taste. You made me eat fewer nigiri. You made me eat fewer food, using my government. And Aiden, Aiden, Aiden was out while this happened. He sends a message, he goes, "Leave, leave some sushi." "Leave some sushi on the table." "Leave some for God." "Leave some for the God you got it all." "Leave some for the sushi." And it was good. It was amazing. It was really good sushi. He's delicious. If you ever incorporate a viewer in my life again, I will kill you. I'm the only one- Again, lies it. I'm the only one. And again, if we're just- And I think I'm the only one who doesn't abuse my platform. It's unbelievable. You have bought clothes in six years because people just send you shit. Hold up, I bought clothes two months ago. Okay. What are you doing with my feet today? You bought these clothes? Yes. I don't- I think it's your first time golfing, and this is all you had. That's all I had, and I'm here to golf. I can't prove that you've done this. Give me a nine iron. Is there a nine iron? I mean, just put nine in that iron. You've changed. Oh, that bar none. Yuck. We've established how they've changed. I don't think I've switched up because pre-moon, it just happened to me. I would care in the same way. I just now have a second avenue to do something about it. Yeah. Also, my perennial defense in the way I act online is I would do this and have done this the same amount- He has changed the least. Yeah, so I think- I think before you're a guy swinging a squeaky hammer, and now you have the Super Smash Brothers mega hammer. Obviously, I have a mega hammer, but I still act as if I have the small one, which is a mistake. That's the issue. It actually doesn't- You're giving it an extra power. You're giving it an extra power. That's great. Responsibility. I'm still- I'm still using a crazy sword. Look. What? What, dude? I would just fucking take the shipping label, ship it back. You know what? I would- I would let it go. No. No, 'cause I waited, bro, I waited like a week and a half for this bullshit, man. So like so short. We get it. We get it. We get it. Because you get an Amazon for two for two days. We ship shit. I went to their website and waited an extra fucking six days. That's the most interesting thing. That's so crazy. There was something on Saturday night at like 8 p.m. and it said, okay, I'll be delivered by 10 a.m. Tomorrow Sunday. And I was like, we don't- I don't need this. I don't need this. It's gross how it also shapes our expectations of shipping. Of course. It is. Yeah. Him, again, huge defense here is him using the Razor website is a big gesture and that loyalty was kind of not- that loyalty was met with a lot of friction. My loyalty gets rewarded. My loyalty gets rewarded when I go to Jenny's ice cream and I get 50% off because I've gone three times this month. I was like, you say three times that week. 'Cause you're a real creamer, bro. 'Cause I'm a real creamer and I'm back. Don't lie that you went three times in a month. You've been- It was this week. Oh yeah. You have to change my suite, right? You went three times this week, you're a real creamer. He's got to show Liam Jenny's. He's got to show Super Jenny's. Oh my god. Liam's been so weird since he got buff. I know. You were talking about it. You were right. Liam got really buff. He's like strong now. He goes to the gym like every day and he like he looks chiseled when you look at him. But I was like, I invited Liam to the show match and I thought he was going to stay in my place. But you know, I don't communicate well. He doesn't communicate well. He shows up to L.A. Message him. I go, are you here, bro? Because I know when his flight lands and he goes, oh yeah, I'm at the hotel but they're out of rooms. I didn't feel like the form to get a room. I was like, stay at mine. He's like, oh, you have a hotel. I like know my place, kind of my place. And then he comes and then next day he takes a suitcase and he leaves and he goes to the hotel. I'm like, where do you go to the hotel? He's like, oh, I already got it and he fucking walks around and I see him in the morning at the event. I go, hey, Liam. And he goes, sup, pussy. And he's fucking big now. And he's big now. I don't know if you're maybe already looking for it. Can you show the picture of his fridge? I am looking for it. That would be really mean. He brushes shoulders. He brushes shoulders when he walks around. Oh, he got, well, I think I know how he got big Ludwig. Have you seen his fridge? I haven't seen his fridge. Why do you get big? Is there like meat in it? Upload. Get hope with what's in there. You'd hope there's meat. Uploading to zipper right now. Uploading meat fridge. A computer. Please pull up. Liam's fridge. Computer. Show me Liam's cock. This is the guy who doesn't know where his mom is. It's like a. (laughter) All right, audio listeners, I'm going to help you out here. This is a vertical side of a fridge on the right side, the refrigerator element. This is the door, mostly. You can't see inside of the fridge, but it does look pretty empty, but let's start at the bottom. Actually, let's save the bottom for later. It's like a dessert. On the fridge door, we have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 bottles of raised sauce. This is not sweet baby raised. It's 12 bottles. Wait, wait. It's raised barbecue sauce, but I think it's low sugar. I'm pretty sure. 3 out of 3. You were 5. 6. I'm pretty sure the empty one is sugar free. When it's raised, it's not sweet baby raised. It's not sweet anymore. So this is sugar free barbecue sauce. He has about 11 empty bottles and a 12 bottle that is absolutely full, resting on top of them kind of like a crowdsurf. I'd like to correct one more detail. He has 11, half to quarter full bottles. Not empty. Look at that. Look at that. Look at that. Look at that. Look at that. Look at that. Look at that barbecue sauce in there. Look at that. You can see where it lines up on the label. I look, I think. This is great. Come on. Can I speak? That's fine. Can you possibly say I think the average, if you were to be honest, of the 11 bottles would be a quarter filled. The third. I think a third? A third? No. I can't give you half. A third? A third. I can give you a third. I'll join you. And I'll take you a third, bro. And that's why I have to go. And he's found a way to me. - It's not for you. - You see, man. - I can't wait to end. - I can't. - Am I coming to what? - Coming to what? - To what? - It's Chubbycat on Monday. - Oh, it is. - This is the last part, bro. - Yeah, I'm coming, Chubbycat. - I'm coming. I'm coming. - Stop saying it. - I'm coming. - I'm gonna come back to back. - I'm gonna come. - I'm gonna come. I'm gonna come. I'm gonna fucking come. - You've said it so many times that you made me feel like you're not. - Oh, I have a shoot tonight. I have a shoot tonight. - You're actually getting a little softer. - I have a shoot tonight. - Yeah, it does have a shoot tonight. - 9 PM shoot with who? - I don't swim. - Dan, Liza. - Yeah, there's a lower thirds. - No, no, no. - They slaughtered you at 9 PM. - Yeah, well, it's gotta be when the sun's down. Oh, sun sets late these days, boys. - Wow. - Well, it's fucking hard, I'm sorry, that you have to take it to shoot at 9 PM. - That's fucking fine, bro. I fucking work. Actually, I penciled in a week of vacation. I don't know if you saw my counter. - Really? - Yeah, I'm out. - July 1st and 7th. - Yeah, stream. - No, wait, what? - I'm out. - Wait, where are you going? - I know where I'm just gonna stay home and not do anything. - Oh, that's kind of hype. - Wait, do you know where I don't take this off? - Yeah, yeah, this is a change. I've changed. - I think you're gonna crack. - I'm gonna message Razor during it. I'm gonna fucking-- - I think you're gonna break. I think you're gonna end up streaming on the fourth day and be like, ah. - We should play Counter Strike on your week off. - I could do that. I have so much time. - Let's do it. - Let's do it. - Yeah, yeah, yeah, play Spire, go up. - I would love to. - Dude, sounds great, I'll do it. - We're gonna fucking hang out. I'll fucking hang out. - Okay. - Why are you sad? - Are you gonna come on the trip? - Yeah. - Yeah? - Yeah, it's my week off. I can go on a vacation. - I love how the mogul moves organized a six flag employee trip and then Ludwig bailed last minute to stream. - In my defense, it was Summer Games Fest. - Oh, and here's some, that very memorable that. In his defense, the way this company trip was planned was a jingling chaotic disaster. - Jingling, wait, jingling fuck something up. - That bro. - No, fuck, he didn't check the cow. - He didn't look at the thing, the grid with the words and the numbers on it. - No, he didn't. - He's fucking kidding. - He didn't check it. - You know, check it bro. It's hard to check to be fair in his defense though. - You know games sucks, by the way. - Valorant. - I mean, you said it sucks and you said it's coming back and now you're saying it sucks again. - Do you worship on the CS major? - Valorant's dead forever. - No, I think this is such a dumb. - What? - No, Valorant's Chinese now. That's what they say. - Valorant's Chinese now. - And I think we don't, 'cause it's super Chinese. - It's like, yeah. - 'Cause I was in China and they were playing it on the mobile phone. - On the damn phone. - Everywhere. - Yeah. - It's extremely popular. - I'm in Chongde. - I just couldn't even fucking point to that. - And they're, most couldn't. - No. - Chinese people probably would struggle. They would probably be like, where the fuck is that? - Chongde. - You're gonna get the big city, right? - It's like a tier three. - Are you saying? - No, not literally. - You're literally saying it. - Not totally a different city. - I don't know what this is like. - Oh, it's different. - I thought you were intentionally saying Chongde. - I also thought that. I thought you were putting it through. - Chongde was a tier one. - They would know where Chongde is. - Right. So that's my confusion. - Yes. - It's like Kansas City and Missouri for us. - Yeah. I'm like, I'm like, find El Paso. - Okay. - The harder. - Someone got it. - Everyone knows El Paso. - Is Valorant back or not? - Pull up blank map of US Nick. - Oh, I don't care. - I don't care. - I'm making Nick do it. - I don't know where El Paso is in Texas. - Oh really? - I don't know where El Paso is. - What do you think it stands for as a word to translate? - The passing. - Okay. So where would you put a-- - I'd go to some sort of passing on the map. Like if there was sort of maybe like-- - I didn't help me. - I know what it was. - Yeah. - But I wouldn't know. I'd be lucky if I got it. Like I don't know the info. - The blank map of Texas. - Yeah. - You were gonna point to it. - I would point to Austin wrong. Like I wouldn't even know where Austin is. I've been there. - Yeah. - You know? - I don't know where the cities are in Texas. - Yeah, you just fly to them. And then you get out of the airport and call Uber. - It's exactly what I would do. - Yeah. - And I would be like, I don't know where I am. - I'm like, third street. - It's probably like-- - It's probably like, oh, we're gonna go to Dallas for the day. - It's gonna be like, that must be close enough to do. - There you go. - Oh, well here. Where would I put it? I'd put it in the bottom right. - Close. - It's in the bottom right. - Like where? - Help him with his cursor. - Like up a little more. - That's right. - That's where we put El Paso? - Right there. - That's El Paso? - Yeah. - It's in the bottom left. - Yeah. - Exactly opposite. - It's on the border of Mexico and Texas. - El Paso. - El Paso. - That makes sense. - Spanish. - There's a lot of border. - And that's true. We should go to war. - We're San Antonio. - Who fucking knows? - San Antonio. - San Antonio's not totally, but like bottom right. - No one can find it. - There's a lot of Spanish places. - Yeah, it's like a little higher than that. - Mexican. - It's like three hours south. I think of Dallas. - Why don't we go to a damn Texas beach? - Texas has all that, the Spanish influence because of its proximity to. - Absolutely. - No, that makes sense. - Wait, that's from a Galveston. - How about Galveston? - Nobody wants to go to Galveston, Texas. - Yeah, go Galveston. Get on the beach. - Nobody wants to go to a Galveston beach. - But then the damn-- - Is it Dallas or Fort Worth? - It's Galveston. - We fucking decide. - It's both. - There's no way he is both. - It's both. - It can't be both. - It's one or the other. - It pays one. - Dallas? - Okay, so if I'm like, I'm going to Dallas. - Okay, so now I'm also like, I'm going to Fort Worth. - Oh, okay. - Don't want to stay in place. - No. - Wait, wait, is it like Minneapolis, St. Paul? - It is little like Miami and. - Oh, I'm blinking on the name right now. - That's how you know. - Fort Worth, Fort Worth? - Fort Worth. - It's like Miami in Fort Worth. - Fort Lauderdale. - Fort Lauderdale. - Is that it? Miami in Fort Lauderdale? - I think it's Fort Lauderdale. - I'm shooting for that. - I don't care. - I like to get rid of Dallas. I'll just keep Fort Worth. - I like that. - Keep Fort Worth. - Cleaner. - Well, no, you know what you need is. - Let's clean that, let's clean that. - You know what you need is a war. - Oh, you need a war to solve the problem. - The Texas would love a war. - But a war that we solve in GTARP. - No, no, real war. - Lacey leads the Dallasians. Delicians. - Delicians. Where's the Fort Worth? - Lacey would get swallowed up by Aiden Ross's faction immediately, and he would become a tier two mob boss only. Capped. - Some mob boss. - Oops, still a mob boss. - I don't know. - Still a mob boss. Is that fucking Mickey Mad? - Wait, what were you saying about Valorant? You don't like Valorant anymore. - Yeah, why is it dead? - It's dead. - It's dead. - It's not dead. - I never said it's dead. - It's dead. - I think it's not dead. I actually think it's thriving, just non-America. But I think the game sucks 'cause I played it, and it was a horrible experience. - Yeah, that's a bad sign for a game. - Why did you play it? - 'Cause I've been doing the God-gamer Gala. We're out to win 10 games in real back to back to back to back to back to back. And I got to game number nine, and that game was Valorant. - I got to nine. - I got to nine. No, you got Valorant. - And I played Valorant, and I got fucked. I went four and like 18, it was miserable. - That's so sad. - And the player base, it's like, it is what the stereotype is. Like I go from CS2, and they are just like, either no calming or boomers, and then I go to Valorant and there's a bunch of fucking zoomers. - Yeah, it's zoomers. - Really? Still? - Yeah, it was all zoomers. - You can hear the bus and haircut through the bus. - Yes. - Loudly. - Fucking loud, dibigo. - Dibigo. - Dibigo. - They say I'm not shit. - Dibigo. - They were saying, "Shit, I didn't even want to shan." But the most they were saying is, "Damn, raise your ass." And I'm like, "Yup." - So what is your evaluation of the game after playing it for one game? - Too many champs. They're gonna make it like league, it's a mistake. - Yes. - Because the meta evolves not through players inventing new strategies but through finding like the best combination of agents. - Okay. - Yeah. - And new agents makes it worse. - That's everyone's take on the game. I loaded up that game and then blue flames came out of my mind and I didn't know what was happening and then I died. - Yeah, yeah, that'll happen, man. It's bad now. - It's serious. - I didn't see you adding too many agents forever. - But at the same time, I thought about this a lot 'cause it's like, what were they meant to do? - Keep it simple, stupid. - It's awesome. - I think the game came-- - I mean, I think that's the crime of the game. It can't not be this. - Because to not be this is to just go in the direction of-- - But Counter Strike is inherently simple. There is no abilities. This is a game that has abilities. So it's like, you got to develop them. You got to make new ones. They're doing what they're supposed to do. But then all of a sudden-- - Here's the solution. - No, but that's what I mean. - It's like one agent a year. That's the shit it done. - One agent a year, I think it'd be good. - I agree. - Or even locking agents. - Locking. - Oh, you can't play that. - Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Overwatch did. I think taking away choices from the players is a really bad idea. - No idea. - I think it's the monkey's paw of developing a game like this. Which I don't think is bad. It's like they print money. - The way that CS does maps, Valorant 2 characters. You've got agents that are only and unrated. - Yeah. - You know, and then you've got comp agents that have more time in. - That's kind of cool. Even though it's still take-- That's kind of what Overwatch did, right? You're just not allowed to play unless maybe it's a casual mode. - I don't know, I don't know. - Overwatch is like-- - I know Overwatch is like, you can't have the same champ across multiple people in comp, but you can and unrated. Like, you have full mercy team un-unrated. - I just want to-- I guess Riot has failed a couple times. So, I guess my wish got granted, but-- - Yeah, they would fail. - Yeah, it's just nice to see such a juggernaut fuck it up. - Did Val-- - Did they stumble into Counter Strike working again? Did that happen kind of just by, like, natural people being fed up with oversaturated games and it's like, "Oh, I'll return to something." Or do they do something? - They actively do something. - They actively do Counter Strike too. - Yeah, but at first it was flopping. - Yeah, but this is the same as they were also continually working on Counter Strike too. - This thing that happened with Go when it launched is-- that launch shitty and then they just fix it and then the people that are peved come back. And then ultimately, I think you just have a base game that's very understandable. And I think that's the power of like, I've been thinking about this a bunch is this like gamble of making a game that like lasts the test of time. Because if you're a developer and you need something to hit, you're very incentivized to make something like Valorant where you pump out like updates and champions and like in skins at a pace that allows you to like monetize the game successfully and keep the player base that you attract interested in coming back like month after month. But I think in the long, long run, which very few games, this is why it's kind of a weird decision, is if you want your game to last like 10 plus years or 20 plus years, you actually hurt yourself by developing a game in that way. Because anybody that would like loved your game but had to step away from it because of life who comes back later has a really hard time engaging with what you've made again. But we can all come back to CS or I think another game that does this really well that will remain very popular for a long time is Rocket League. Is you can just, you can tap back in at any time and immediately understand the game. And if your game is good enough to survive like generations of people cycling in and out of it, you can get to like the 10, the 15, the 20 year mark, then you're like this. Then it's better for your game to be simpler. - Okay, but we'll update that time, but damn League of Legends. - Yeah. - I feel like it doesn't have the problem Valorant has. And they have way more champs. - I think League isn't a tough spot, right? Because it has declined. And the esport of it all is-- - I don't know if it has really declined that much. - Your argument is always that there's more gamers in the world and a lot of people play League. Which I think sometimes I think sometimes it makes sense and sometimes it doesn't make sense. - I mean, I don't have the exact numbers. I do know that for the first time, like because I talked to somebody who works there for the first time, like League was like declining in Asia in like recent years, which was like a big deal. It was like losing like market share for the first time. - The numbers in NA have, as far as I know, it last year the numbers in NA play or wise were like going up for the first time. But the esport, it like, I don't know about China numbers, China numbers are this mystery, right? But the esport numbers are like bad except for worlds. And I have a theory that people only give a shit about, like a lot of people who like make that record-breaking number every year are tuning in because Faker and the SKT narrative is like still a huge part of it. Like for the people that are on the peripheral and want to see Faker do it again. - Post-Faker retirement. - Yeah. - What viewership at that event outside of China is gonna be like. And this is, I think League is a bit of an anomaly and I do agree that I think it pokes a bit of a hole in my theory, but I don't think it says like, League is like struggling from what it was. And all it has in terms of it, like, breaking records anymore is the world's viewership, which we have the goat of esports happens to participate in it every year. So what happens when that guy's gone? - I'm curious what happens. - He'd be behind flash. - Huh? - Well, I'd love to have it. It's Faker now. - I'd love to have this debate. We'll have it in the Patreon. We'll see you there. - We're boomer debate. (laughing) It's Faker. - But this episode's over. Seriously guys. - Yeah, we're up. Bye.
