Yesterday, a historic match between Imperial Fe and NaVi took place. Imperial defied expectations picking up 15 rounds vs 2024's #1 team
I was really impressed by their Ancient T side, so I broke it down here 👇

hopefully the connecting flight gets delayed too 🙃
Got to Belgrade a little early ahead of the HLTV awards, these are THE BOLLOCKS
I will be overdosing on sugar momentarily
I'm looking forward to 2025, happy new year :)
The thing that really struck me at the end of this (my first full) year of freelancing is that I've been really hesitant to commit to any plans more than a couple weeks out in case a work opportunity comes up.
It's like a two way FOMO. I'm hoping I can find a healthier balance with it in 2025.
i'm actually an orange juice addict man
i can't go to the kitchen and not have a little glass of juice if there's some in the fridge
mmmm vitamin c
FaZe losing to two tec9 A pops is horrendous.
Spirit also demonstrating what FaZe should have been doing in their low buys. Felt like there was no plan with their own ecos.
Worrying start
The run that faze has been on this major is something truly magical.
The switch-on they've had coming into playoffs has been electric to watch.
Karrigan already is the greatest IGL of all time in my eyes. I think if he pulls this major off it's indisputable.
image of the counter strike settings menu, the "max acceptable matchmaking ping" option is hovered on, showing a tooltip that has been modified to show the underlying command the setting modifies.
I'd love if @counter-strike.net added something to show the underlying console command for settings menu items like this
even if it was hidden behind a launch option like -showSettingsCommands or something
it would make building an autoexec so much easier
Movember is done, in total this year we've raised £547.68.
MASSIVE thank you to everyone who donated, this beat my previous record, hopefully next year we can go even higher ❤️
Waking up to see a team you either believed or didn’t believe in due to results, eye test and meticulous research do the exact opposite of your expectations
Watch partying the stream 12 hours delayed in the discord and pretending it's live 🤙

If they'd quietly shipped it as a UI upgrade it would have been fine, I think they've overhyped it far too much
But yeah, a lot of hype for not a lot rly
I imagine they've done a lot under the hood to remove tech debt and then thrown a bunch of quick "features" on to make it feel significant to the average user
Haha absolutely fair, those two are both great picks
I missed this one on my trip to Stockholm earlier in the year, it looks so cool!
Have you been to Skansen?
A BO5 Grand Final is underway in Intel Tulpars Reloaded 2024, join me and @timmocs.bsky.social for all the action at

I was not even expecting to hit the $100 goal I had set, we absolutely smashed it. $625.01 is an insane amount of money going to Movember.
Thank you everyone who tuned in and donated ❤️❤️
I am live for this, hopefully all set for a half 7 start (I am panicking)
I'm not entirely sure where the blame lies for this mid-major rule change, but the timing is ridiculous. This is a matter that should have been closed WELL before the tournament kicked off.
If Perfect World's claim that Valve OKed their rulebook holds true, this is a massive fuck up.
Already in there chief 🫡

It'll probably get there eventually, but I think it's going to take a while
