/vt/ - Virtual Youtubers

Nose...

It's to be expected, all the girls receive a bit of hate but it's especially easy to place the blame on IGL or Gib players because of the overwhelming advantage Gib has(some players get criticized for selfish dome etc). It doesn't help that Nazuna(and Toto) can make the entire team look obsolete in Valorant so you get the "why are you making everyone look bad, it's only casual" trolls and when she sandbags it's the reverse argument.
Wingman is nice but in a competitive sweat environment it's not as reliable as Flatline or R-301 even though I am really sick of Flat/R-301+Eva. Lastly the weapon is so much stronger in aggressive play and close range combat with multiple LoS breaks which doesn't mesh with Nazuna's Caustic/Gib.
Nazuna is still in the old mindset of taking and holding strong positions, needs to play some Path or more Wraith and get used to being an annoying mosquito.

>>5234458
Easy to forget that Noah has been IGL for VSPO a few times for Splat and APEX. She is quite close to Nazuna in terms of mindset ie taking initiative and providing her own input. Seems like Japan doesn't value second opinions when the team lead is much stronger.
Honestly it's less of her coming out of her shell and more seeing old Noah back. She can't really showcase much in APEX since she's playing Bloodhound and mainly as a support rather than shotcaller even in casual/ranked.

For non-VSPO topics, how do you guys feel about Uto? I'm always wary of seeing vtubers starting to stream APEX and then showing that they're really strong at the game from the get-go.

>I'm always wary of seeing vtubers starting to stream APEX and then showing that they're really strong at the game from the get-go.
Can you elaborate on this? Isn't being good at the game a good thing?

>>5264436
Depends on the viewer and the streamer. Like if Botan started playing any FPS game I wouldn't be surprised since she's said and shown that's it's her thing, on the otherhand watching a self-proclaimed newbie at the game prefire Havoc and start beaming down a squad on her first stream is something else. For the record I'm referring to a different indie and not Uto.
If the streamer is advertising themselves as a beginner then I'm watching them to see them develop and get better.

As for Uto, she's clearly strong and I'm combing through her archives to see how she developed etc.

>>5264860
I see. I thought you were worried because people would get suspicious and starts calling them cheater but I guess that doesn't really happen here (thankfully)

>>5264860
Dunno About Uto. You would have to know her previous life probably. Would explain her relationship with Hal.

>>5265206
That makes a lot more sense, I saw her level is 500 and thought that she might have been grinding offstream during her breaks.

Local Comic Kairakuten artist back on ranked grind after a break:

Was a bit awkward listening to Noa shoot down Sumire's attempts at teetee between her and Hendy.

Met and Reid duo rank

>>5264250
I remember watching Uto's Apex stream before(?) her break and was surprised she was quite a bit better than the average non-FPS streamer given her normal streams.

I'm not sure she ever said she was new to FPS' though and I think she was already level 500 at that point in time.

>>5266603
Not an Uto follower, what really got me on the trail was her recent stream, she wiped a squad and acted surprised of sorts during her popoff even though her tracking with R99 was spot on the entire time and broke a controller Gibby's ankles.
I know it's part of the show and character, gap moe to feign surprise but it was a bit disorienting for me since it was clearly a babby squad and her performance was well above what that squad could handle.

It makes more sense to me now that there is an implied previous experience and now I know she's a killer even if she acts innocent.

>>5267000
1v3ing is impressive no matter what. Actually being able to pull something like that off at any skill level regardless of your own should surprise someone. Diamond+ players die to Golds all the time.

Nazuna, Nyantako, and Reid later tonight.
Drunk APEX.

>>5267060
For reference: https://youtu.be/Oe2_FFHSXzI?t=1322

Team was so outclassed, didn't even crack her shield.

>>5267283
Nazuna secret: she's always drunk.

>>5267429
clips like these make me pick up the r99, then I end up dumping an entire clip above their heads

>>5265206
>Would explain her relationship with Hal
What's this? All I know is that Shibuhal replied to her longpost once.

>>5267513
I'm as trash player so my opinion shouldn't really count but R-301 feels scummy to use. I'd rather miss my shots with R99 and long range Flatline but can't really deny that R-301 is so strong.
Have a sensitive Sena for your troubles and to keep the thread going.

>>5267429
Not that anon but I dont think thats an unreasonable reaction given genuine 1v3s like that dont really happen too often. More excited than surprised.

>>5264250
>Coach Uruca(?) says Nose should stop using Wingman:
https://youtu.be/EOFI3QCKxsI?t=127
VSPO friends...
RT though, Wingman can be a 50-50 against players with strong movement. Nazuna and Nose should at least consider a more consistent weapon.

>>5265768
yeah, but i thought sumire was forcing it a bit there. chat had it about right:
>男女てぇてぇにハマってるすーちゃん
>厄介カプ厨おる?

Posting an indie for a change of pace:

She's pretty strong and you might have seen her in a few tournaments in oddball teams.

>>5264250
Uto also had another clip in that stream where she 1v3s for the win, with the enemy lifeline getting 2 revives. In her past life, she was a Fortnite sweat

man, if i didn't know better i'd think this was a hinata situation

Vspo and friends seem a bit more enthusiastic about rank early this split

My Hinano can't be this cute

Lily.. how long have you been playing this game to the point where you even managed to rope Memory into it...

>>5271168
very cute

In less than 24 hours... new model for Totocchi!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zefcjo_abbk

Her mom always does great work and IMO she's had the best designs of all the girls. Her mom gets salty when streaming APEX though..

Hinano scrim!

Calliope is terrible at APEX. It was painful to watch.

>>5267573
You don't know? Hal is a manslut, using his influence to sleep around with female vtubers. In exchange for their body, he teaches them Apex. Rem who? This is my Hal's rrat.

>>5272014
Unsurprising, she's not very savvy at many things and is casual. Spent about an hour with Gura getting through the first boss of River City Girls because they were aping her instead of learning boss patterns.
On the other hand Mel having a grasp of the game was a pleasant surprise being able to give basic directions to Calli and then recently playing with Choco and Nene. Doesn't hurt that she mains Bangalore which is good for learning the game

I don't think any APEX "beginner" stream will top NijiEN's disaster collab. Even if Pomu was absolutely terrible, Finana with 0 comms and minimal team play was worse. It always fell to Elira to attempt to help Pomu or retrieve her banner.

Maybe learning Thai scribbles is the way to becoming an APEX pred...

Uto is closing in on level 900 on her main, she doesn't stream it much but she's not new to the game by any means.

>>5272613
dumb question: after rank resets are the top 750 still ranked as predator or is it only when you pass 10000 rp?

>>5273664
Top 750 is predator

Tell me more about this... NyanTako...

>>5270367
hmm, looking into it everything about the uto situation is incredibly sketchy. not gonna waste any more time trying to figure out what's going on there

Noah sponsored stream.

>>5276685
Nyantako skirts the line between yab and not yab.

Lately I've been finding Hinano's voice cute. She always sounded like a fat debu to me but then... I don't know. It's like her voice became prettier to the point that it's attractive.

>>5277086
Elaborate?

>>5277523
Her voice is the reason why I generally watch her over other VSPO

>>5277523
Stockholm Syndrome, stop listening to her humming the Fat Rat on loop.

>>5277086
Yeah I dropped it myself, my personal takeaway is that it might not be a Hinata situation like >>5270367 said but she is stringing them kaigai nikkis with gap moe. Nothing wrong with that but it's not my cup of tea.

>>5272613
holy fuck, she did it, Tempplex would be proud

>>5277554
just doing a quick look through the archives but the gist is "indy" but everything about her seems 100% manufactured to appeal to eops, 0 japanese in chat, the hololive hashtags thing, hiatus, revival. just a weird vibe

>>5277802
yeah, i'm not saying it isn't her playing but just the way her speech is so at odds with her gameplay is really uncanny and kinda disturbing to watch for me. also, to be that good at apex that you must obviously enjoy it to get to that level but no involvement with the wider apex/vtuber community?

"Who was Asumi again?"
First he forgets Nazuchainder, next he forgets one of his old collab partners.

>>5274151
>>5273710
+ Sena Asumi, Mahjong Soul with batsu game(?)

>>5278145
>the way her speech is so at odds with her gameplay is really uncanny
I don't get it, but then again I also don't see what's so strange about getting excited after winning a 1v3.
>but no involvement with the wider apex/vtuber community?
She is shy and doesn't have many collab partners in general, her previous drama makes it even harder I imagine.

>>5276685
She's a strange 30 year old woman, who likes to drink and gamble https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6XdFs8T6Ei54O0FYl3PVVA

>>5279409
People don't expect someone with a cutesy voice and ditzy mannerisms to be good at the game.

>>5279409
ah, okay, to clarify it's strange to me because the apex streamers with her ability* in vspo/774/knr or bora etc i'm used to watching have much more naturalistic streaming styles than her. someone with an exaggerated streaming persona closer to like rushia or miko playing that well just gives me a bit of cognitive dissonance. nothing wrong with it - just not my thing

*or below desu, based on the gameplay in her latest stream

>>5280286
>>5280404
Okay I see, fair enough.

>>5280404
huh, t.b.h filters to desu on /vt/ too
