/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

True but you posted on the wrong board, /vt/ is for discussing all the shit you hate about vtubers

>>47213773
I just thought it would be nice to post something positive. They’re fun to watch.

>>47213278
As someone who dislikes both apex and male collabs, I actually agree

>>47213278
>they're fun
is this some kind of copium or just stockholm syndrome?

>>47214472
It’s just my honest feelings about them, without any kind of irony or cope. I think they’re entertaining to watch together and have enjoyed their sports anime like training arc.

>>47213278
Yep, they've won so many matches in the scrims that I believe they might take home the dub.

>>47213278
I hope they win because it would cause massive seethe from a lot of different people
Then maybe people might complain enough to get the point system fixed for next time

>>47213278
>dragoons liked males all along
I knew it was pure projection

I like Magni, Axel, and Vesper, I only have seen Hakka in clips.

Sorry I can't support the cause.

>>47214879
And Regis too, he's a fun little guy

>>47214796
There is no next time.
This is the final vsaikyo. If Axel didn't invite Selen now then she'd never see her dream fulfilled as there wouldn't be any more chances.

>>47214670
It's possible, I think they're a top 10 team, but they'd have to have the mother of all good days to pull it off. Basically, they'd need a fair bit of luck or to iron out some of their mistakes in the next few days.

>>47214796
>Then maybe people might complain enough to get the point system fixed for next time
Kuzuha becomes a 5 pointer. Nah but seriously though, I can feel the gears turning in Hal's head as he tries to figure out how he's been scammed into thinking Altare is a 3-point player. He watches Altare's PoV a lot during scrims to see how he plays.

>>47215004
I mean...didn't they say that last year too and they still held it this year anyway?

>>47213278
Yes. I hope they still do collabs from time to time after the tournament.

>>47215101
nta but thought that was startends one and done dream run. not vsaik.

>>47215167
Maybe offcollabs.

>>47215048 (me)
>in the next few days
Couple of days I should say, there's only a couple more scrims sessions left before the big one. Altare still needs more time to develop as an APEX player and Axel's calls are still a bit rough. Maybe Noct can incentivize them by offering to buy them all jet skis or something if they win vsaikyou?

>hate apex streams
>don't enjoy altare at all
>don't even watch selen and axel outside of popping in a few streams
>now I'm finding myself waking up early to watch their team in the scrims
I don't know why but watching their teamwork and banter in between has me hooked. I hope they win.

>>47215315
It’s literally like a sports anime. It’s highly unlikely they’ll win but I would love a top 10 placement. Even the 3 point monster thing is kino.

The thing I'm liking is how well they banter with their coaches (iPN too, not just Noct). Everyone's spewing bullshit and banter, dogpiling the coach, then bam immediate tryhard mode game review with total deference to the coach, and then the moment's passed so back to clowning again.

>>47215315
It's a tournament arc baby. Tournament arcs are kino and you're seeing why now. I got sucked in a couple of years ago when Astel teamed up with Roboco and Choco to form ARCstars, even though I rarely watched APEX streams back then. You get all attached to one team, but they exist in among other teams with familiar members that have their own stories.

>>47215436
>>47215543
yeah, one moment they're joking about italians and the next Selen is bringing them from what would be 14th place to 2nd. It's exciting.

It seems Selen agrees with you OP

>>47215901
>2nd place
I meant 3rd, got it mixed up with an earlier round
https://youtu.be/4BNRJTucag4?t=7207
this was funny though

>>47213278
>Went from hating 3/4 of the members to liking all of them
Tournament arcs are something.

>>47215048
but whats untrue about how he got 3 points though? he is a plat player max, you can see it on his movement and game sense early on. he is a gamer and has adapted to tournament play quickly.

>>47217166
I'd be interested to see how high he could rank after his tournament experience but only in an academic sense, I don't want to watch Altare spam APEX streams after the tourney is over.

>>47217328
He doesn’t like Apex so you’re in luck. He’s a Counterstrike/Valorant player.

>>47217328
same.
i would however would love to see TSB come back for fun one-off event/collabs every few months.

>>47215004
Wasn’t last year the final Apex VSaikyo and then Hal realised there was no Apex replacement

>>47213278
This is the most fun I've had in a vtubing arc in a while. Please don't job for once Tempus.

at least it's not a bait thread

>>47217166
His game sense and movement are plat but his aim and tracking are about as good as any of the masters in the lobby. His ability to snipe and earn the whole team purple armors by final circle is a utility no other 3pt member brings to the table. There's no way he's worth 8pts but if we were at least trying to make the point valuations fair he should be at least 5 or 6. But if we go there you'd have to reevaluate like 70% of the lobby. There isn't a single team that wouldn't be affected by a lobbywide recalculation of points.

>>47213278
It's crazy to have witnessed their month of training and see how their teamwork evolved through pure determination and friendship, it's literally a sports anime that's about to reach its end soon...

>>47213278
Did RPR delivered those fucking pizzas or not?

>>47213278
SELEN I KNOW YOU ARE /HERE/ PLEASE MARRY ME I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, ME AND MY FRIENDS ARE ALSO FUN TOGETHER

>>47219870
RPR? Noct promised pizza, not RPR.

>>47219774
remember the malding the first few streams? feels like a lifetime away.

The harsh truth that unicorns don't wanna hear: TSB and the "Mag, Mori, Vesper, Kronii" groups are both pretty fun together.

Proof that men and women can be friends…

>>47213278
Dragoons...not you too...

>>47222708
If it makes you feel better, if Mumei and Ame start their training arcs now, they could be competitive for next year, right? Right?

>>47213278
Yeah, they have a good dynamic. I don't care about Apex at all, but I've watched a lot of their practice streams and they've all been a lot of fun. It's a good mix of goofing around between rounds and serious training, and having different coaches pop in at various points in the arc has helped to keep things fresh as well.

>>47213278
This is the only non-shitpost Selen thread I think I've ever seen, it almost feels out of place. I'm kind of scared. Good luck to them, I'm rooting for a different team though. Also I fucking hate Apex.

i'm very much enjoying this group as well and I don't even particularly enjoy watching Apex before this.

Apex by itself is boring.
Watching them interact with each other and banter early / mid / inbetween games and being the underdog is what makes it interesting.
Startend didn't make me feel the same way TSB does, can't put my finger on why though. Probably because everyone and their mother's dog believed that startend would win it all because Aqua was their fps goddess, while no one really believes in TSB due to several factors such as ping.

>>47227936
>Probably because everyone and their mother's dog believed that startend would win it all because Aqua was their fps goddess
>everyone
Not really, the hype was from people that had never watched vsai before and thought Aqua's solo skill would be enough to overcome her awful teamplay (it didn't). It was surprising just how hard they shit the bed though. TSB is way better as a team and have a better shot at going all the way than Startend.

>>47218665
True, but you could also argue that Axel and Selen are overvalued by at least a point - Axel's improved a lot but is probably still the weak link, and Selen's doing great but I still wouldn't say she's worth the full 10 points compared to the others in the lobby. So just donate a point each and Regis is a fair 5.

>>47216117
This has been peak content throughout, good for Selen.

I don't like either of the homos and I don't really care for Selen but I've been enjoying the tournament arc. Selen's insane solo clutch during the last official round of yesterday's scrims was so fucking hype, and the aussie retard almost called her a crazy fucking cunt on stream too. I hope the EN scene gets more of these serious tournaments.

Gamma's been my favorite arc to follow this vsai tbdesu

>>47237485
If they place top 5, you'll see ENs get more consideration.

>>47238608
Who the fuck is Gamma

>>47238756
a funny hyper party lad

>>47214587
Selen would be fun with anyone. They also have to be nice to her because they are doing horrible numbers wise on their own.

>>47238906
You think they'd be rude to her if their numbers were better?

>>47238906
>this is your brain on /#/

Imagine being a dragoon

>>47238906
retard. thats the vsai buff. yes, vsai has a buff, believe it or not. even selen doesn't hit 5k on her regular streams, not counting her recent niji event. but her povs are always at 5k for vsai. tempus boys pov are at around 3k if she is streaming. 3-5k if she's not. altare has some eyes on him because of his sniping clips.
they are nice to her because she's just that much fun having around. unlike most of their "senpais".

>>47239001
i would love an ai voice dub of that clip for /#/, it would be so fun to see the smashed egg

>>47228553
people tend to forget that no matter how good you are solo if you suck at communicating and working with other people you're not gonna win team based games lol

>>47239346
It is super fun in counterstrike when you watch a pretty mid team in pure mechanics but great strategy and team play do really well in tournaments. And extra fun if the completely shit on teams built around 1-2 star players

Axel fucking sucks but the other 3 are great even if I've never heard of their coach in my life

I just want art of Selen getting spitroasted after the tourney like she’s an athlete after the olympics participating in a post match afterparty.

>>47223149
Ame I can see her becoming the new 3pt scam but
>Mumei
Lmao

>>47239457
he's retarded yeah. but his zone predictions are on point.

I can't believe my absolute indifference to Axel as an entertainer (nothing wrong with the fella, just not my cuppa) has prevented me from getting into this arc. I love Selen and Altare.

>>47223149
>Holo EN having the work ethic to join vsai

>>47213278
Is that guy gonna drink milk with pizza?

>>47239847
>Are three extremely lactose intolerant people going to have milk with that pizza?

>>47239761
Axel is both the weakest link on the team and the least funny person. Altare is surprisingly funny with Selen.

>>47241047
Selen's not Lactose Intolerant

>>47244004
She is a chink, she is 100% lactose intolerant

>>47213278
They got some solid chemistry

>>47245140
Watch Streams. She literally said herself that she isn't.

>>47244004
She got that Mongol in her

>>47245721
It is like over 95% of people in china that are lactose intolerant so she gotta be a mongol then

>>47245958
She's technically Cantonese (being HK Chinese) but lives in Canada. The Mongol part however has yet to be confirmed or denied though...

>>47213278

So who gets the front door, who gets the back door, and who gets to shut up her laughing?

>>47246249
Anon, Selen just showed the team art of Altare in a cheerleader outfit. She’s not gonna be the one getting banged.
