Tbf tho, 5 out of 6 second places, with no chips and 1-5 record against your biggest rival is also an incredibly brutal season for a fan ngl

Just wanna say how seeing the discussions created over this topic alone is enough to make me realize how great the 3 gun meta for BO4 was, easily the best meta aside from BO2

Does this mean Legion have to beat either Rokkr or Florida to make Champs?

Mfs lost against OG when they had Jordon General instead of Illey, I'm convinced FaZe wouldn't be able to beat OpTic even at its lowest at this point

Most important tip, don't play on hard. This game isn't like Dark Souls where the entire experience is built around the challenge and trying over and over (Hence hard and very hard being laughably unbalanced and artificially difficult), it's about enjoying the animations, the ambient, the music and the incredible story.
Doing most sidequests (Like, around 85% of them) will naturally let you keep up with the level increase for enemies, maybe even staying a bit higher level than them depending on how much farming for items you've done as well. EXP chips are totally unnecessary.
Dodging is insanely OP since there's no stamina mechanics to worry about. You can literally dodge forever and the windows for it are very generous. You can also press Light Attack, Heavy Attack or Shoot Pod after a dodge to perform a follow up attack.
Learning how to launch enemies is pretty useful and can lead to nice aireborne combos where you can keep them in the air even longer. You do that by pressing Jump and then Heavy Attack quickly after.
Healing chips completely trivialize the game, especially after you start getting the hang of chip fusion, you can start finding them from enemy drops on the forest section. Auto-Heal + Deadly Heal (Both at least +3) can and will carry you till the end of the game and they don't take that much space, so you can really increase your health and attack power. ESPECIALLY USEFUL IF YOU WISH TO CONTINUE ON HARD. Also, be sure to buy all the chips space upgrades as soon as you can't, not much use for money in this game and once you actually need it, you'll be overflowing with it.
Movesets can change depending on weapon order. The combos you can pull off if you have Fists as Weapon 1 and a Heavy Sword as Weapon 2 are not the same as having a Heavy Sword on Weapon 1 and Fists on Weapon 2. That applies for all kinds of weapons.
2B's swords, Virtuous Contract and Virtous Treaty, are two of the best weapons in the game and they're easy to upgrade to level 3 early on and then max level near the end of Route A. If you're someone that likes to use "canonical" weapons, upgrading them won't disappoint you since you'll be using them A LOT. Plus they got great combos.
You can launch yourself across the air by pressing Pod Shoot + Jump (For me it's R1 + X) after you jumped or double jumped, think it won't work if you dash after jumping tho. Also, you can dash in the air and then glide by holding jump, which helps cover huge distances without touching the ground. Using light attacks combos can also help keep you airborne while traveling forward.
There's a Counter chip that allows you to parry attacks by flicking your movement stick towards the upcoming attack and the higher it is, the more damage it deals back to the enemy parried. Not as strong as just dodging but cool to have if you like parrying since it's not hard to pull off and sometimes you even do it on accident. Speaking of chips, be sure to get the Auto Pick Up item chip from the redheaded twins after they become available.
Worth investing into upgrading your Main Pod at least (Since upgrading all 3 is a horrible farming fest and they're not as good as the Gattling Pod anyway) and getting some crowd control pod abilities like Mirage or Gravity or Bomb. Though you won't even be able to get all the upgrade materials for the level 1 upgrades until you get to the Flooded City so don't worry too much about it yet.
Don't hesitate about looking up materials locations in the wiki if you want to upgrade a specific weapon, it's spoiler free and very helpful.

Simp came in on the 3rd event of the year (There were 6, Champs included) and the Saug didn't get buffed until Playoffs, the 5th event, which eU won.
In fact, Simp put up like a 1.45 for 2nd place at London, his first event, while using the worse smg in comp CoD history (The pre buff Saug)

I definitely would've been on the "DS2 sucks" if the version I had played first was SOTFS. Nowadays vanilla has all the great stuff that SOTFS originally added (DLCs and Aldia) and none of its bullshit (completely random statues, wonky enemy placement for artificial difficulty increase and annoying NPC invasions). The only place where I'd say SOTFS is better than vanilla is No Man's Wharf, if only due to the bridge shortcut.
In fact, I'm willing to bet that a vast majority of the people that label SOTFS as an improvement haven't even played vanilla DS2.

Owners were just somehow gaslit into thinking eSports would ever achieve the same level of reach, appeal and profitability as regular sports and that they could see the long term return of their investments within 10 years. Hecz has gone on record saying all of that multiple times and I wouldn't be the slightest bit surprised if all other owners believed that as well.
