Richard Lewis could talk about paint drying for 2 hours and I’d be there to listen. One of the very few people in this industry with integrity. An *actual* journalist.
No way they compared her to Ken Dryden. This is an actual insult to one of the greatest NHL players of all time. Dryden retired during his prime on one of the greatest NHL teams of all time after winning 4 cups in a row to study law. He was basically playing hockey as a side gig.
@@RLewisReports The whole debate is utter bollocks and is founded on muh feels. No human can tell the difference between 64 or 128. Yeah grenades behave differently sure, but more ticks is brute force solution and bigger chance to catch tick borne encephalitis.
I ripped into gamer doc about the disengenousness of them picking up demon1 and screw face, and they tried acting like they literally scavenged them out of nowhere and had amazing scouting and ran them through “aimlabs” drills like anyone gives a fuck, when demon1 was basically the highschool Lebron of tier2 already and screwface was on salaried teams from the beginning of valorant basically, disgusting, and she blocked me for it, EG is a joke
Didn't know potter had a redemption arc, didn't know she was even being shit on over there in valorant, but it was to be expected seeing how she was getting shit on in csgo. I always liked her on the analysis deck in csgo, it's refreshing to hear from a female analyst and ex-pro. Can't believe she's still powering through in esports despite all the blame she's getting. Hopefully she'll inspire other women to do the same
I have worked in some top companies in Europe with global reach and when the CEO would get replaced literally all you would be told is this person is going on to do other things welcome this other person...I can't imagine a serious multi-million (or billion) dollar company writing such extreme cringe
I am working at a company where the CEO left after 20 years. The annual company party had a video about him. The video showed all the products that were lauched under him and his achievements that made the paper, the video did not compare him to anybody, it did not try to inflate anything... just facts. After the video finally came the "yes, man" to talk bullshit about how he made their lives special in a way. Regarding CEO from companies below the major one, nothing was ever produced or said with the exception of an email with a simple: This CEO is leaving, X person is now in his place.
Nice Video. But it seems the problems with decision making has stayed with how they are trolling their valorant champion winning team. Its insane that you finaly have a 1st or 2nd best team in a major game title and you decide to nuke it by forcing massive paycuts on all the player's while pretending they let them all be free agents publicly then demanding huge buyouts from interested teams and burning the crumb of goodwill that that team brought for you.
What I don't get for Digiday, is if you look at football, how owners are often criticised far more harshly than anyone in esports ever is. Even in relatively placid clubs like the one I support when the team is doing badly the owners get a torrent of abuse.
I don't know exact dates but in Dota 2 I think LGD's Ruru has been their CEO for quite a long time. Dunno if she was THE first female CEO of an esports org but it feels like she's been in the scene for ages.
"Turning it into a profitable vehicle before selling them for a multiple". Multiple.. Fiat Multipla, or what? That's the only kind of fiat they got in return the ugly stacked vehicle, not the currency 😂
How is thunderpick a good sponsor? According to their own description: "Crypto Esport Betting & Casino".... The only acceptable thing in this description is the ampersand, everything else is trash
"We used to have Rick Foxes, now we've got Rickrollers" 🔥🔥🔥
Checks out too 😂
The e-mail reads like a Vault-Tec message on a derelict terminal in the ruins of the Wastelands.
Hilarious and haunting at the same time.

It's a matter of values really, in real life we value a person who can turn anything to gold. In Esports turning anything to shit seems quite valued.

Its absolutely fucking insane as a Canadian I've never been so offended.
Hearing new EG mgmt. getting clowned on (rightfully so) is always peak entertainment.
The sean connery of esports. "Yeah of course i mistreat players, never with my fists of course"
HAHAHAHAHA. I can't with how so many of these orgs try their damn hardest to make themselves look so valid.
I don't actually care about esports. That said, you make really good content around it! Makes me wanna care about it
Don't. It's a lost cause.

H2k had a female CEO in 2016-2018 IIRC.
No need to insult Warren Buffet with this comparison.. i know he's a billionaire but come on.. he doesn't deserve this.
i hope the US sports model gets dropped soon. The NFL/NBA comperisons are quite boring

original they want to kick her but she has value as igl so they made her the coach and from there she built the team from scratch

Warren Buffet of Esports… isn’t EG struggling with its cash :D
As a rare H2K fan, I can confirm H2K had a female CEO who was fighting hard for franchising right before Riot announced EU LCS becoming the LEC
The thumbnail on this one is a masterpiece.
This is genuinely one of the women that are tripping up the stair$. Can't you tell?
EG during the early days of SC2 was something.
We shall not forget the Jaedong Idra and HuK days
RIP Geoff 'InControl' Robinson

Andre the giant of esports? nah
THE UNDERTAKER (AT DREAMHACK HELL IN A CELL) of esports? Now that's a worthy acolade for you.

God I hate business school snakes
Richard Lewis is the bricktop of esports.
What I don't get for Digiday, is if you look at football, how owners are often criticised far more harshly than anyone in esports ever is. Even in relatively placid clubs like the one I support when the team is doing badly the owners get a torrent of abuse.
the answer is that astroturfing opinion online (twitter, reddit, etc) is very easy in an entirely online ecosystem.
I just hope that upon given the role, the new CEO just changes the crest back so at the bare minimum, we can have that.
When your mom says we have buffet at home
I don't know exact dates but in Dota 2 I think LGD's Ruru has been their CEO for quite a long time. Dunno if she was THE first female CEO of an esports org but it feels like she's been in the scene for ages.
Hope the domino's keep falling throughout eSports.
I totally agree that esports is inclusive, I mean we've had scarlet for over a decade and most people hasn't cards at all about that.
The warren buffet of esport lol. Yea allowing mental abuse sure makes them the best ceo
Warren Buffet of esports? 0_o
They ain't capping, they the whole cap store
I love you, man.
Watch EG now become a top 10 team in all their games the moment she leaves
Would be nice for the irony but she can’t be phased … the type of person to fail upward
She was dating Travis Gafford during most of her time there. I bet he knows all the dirt. 😅
"Turning it into a profitable vehicle before selling them for a multiple". Multiple.. Fiat Multipla, or what? That's the only kind of fiat they got in return the ugly stacked vehicle, not the currency 😂
Wich Rick fox went into csgo and not lol. Probably still would have ben in esport if that was the case.
When I see what a disgrace EG became it all makes sense lol
How is thunderpick a good sponsor? According to their own description: "Crypto Esport Betting & Casino".... The only acceptable thing in this description is the ampersand, everything else is trash
Thats truly wild that the ampersand is the only thing in that sentence thats above the ground floor of morality
EG fighting hard for that coveted clown of the year org awards.
Didn't H2K have a female CEO?
This video can't be real with a title like that lmao 😂
Industry still a joke.
