Popgun

Unreal way to end the last grassroots major of the year.

PJ LOVES crab tanks when they are on stream, and hates it when they go away. Next time you cancel a crab tank in tourney, just know you might be making a 2 year old upset.

Sendou finals happened, Superjump this weekend and NA League Playoffs after that. Breaking all of that down on the Popcast today as well as taking your calls because I didn’t get the chance to talk to yall about the gatekeeping topic.

Popcast today 6p ET on IPL.

Naw battlefy is fine. You are doing it all wrong. You are supposed to be losing to climb the ladder.

HDFG and Halcyon are the only teams to watch. If one of them makes top 8 over the other, that will be enough to secure playoffs. What will make it tough for them is that 6 of the 7 secured teams are playing today.

Last documented evidence was 13 years ago, but yes.

You will have to settle for being mentioned in an honorable way

Piss off, mate

Our scrims with Crustacean Crusaders were huge for us when we were starting out. It was great to grow with yall throughout our Low Ink and SAC years. It’s the main reason I always tell current Low Ink teams to connect with opponents they have close matches with.

I just want good practice

Boy howdy there is a lot to cover on the Popcast today:

• what I learned about the community last week from the 8s server discussions
• scenarios for teams competing for playoff spots in the upcoming final week of NA League
• recapping Low Ink

I would assume for the vast majority of people, sports are the only reason they have any kind of “tv” subscription nowadays. You take that away then what’s the point.

Getting old:

Gaining infinite wisdom 👍

Needing an infinite supply of Tums within arms reach at all times 👎

For the first time in 304 episodes, I lost power during a Popcast. Shout out to @hitw.ink for being a guest host! Will likely have more guest hosts in the future.

Got a special Friday episode of the Popcast today, chatting with @toyoben.bsky.social and @wadsm.bsky.social about Oktofest, highlighting the success of the event and what to expect in the future.

Surprise Popcast today live 4pm est on IPL.

Been playing more X rank on the side. Is split regions dividing available players too much? I'm in the west region and more often than not there are not enough players, especially during clam blitz rotations. Are those of you in the Japan region getting matches?

A few playoff teams appear to have bowed out of the NA League. Going to be talking about why this league lasting as long as it does is weighing heavily on the players, and who is going to take the open playoff spots. Taking your calls as well on this topic.

If you want to hear about dinosaurs, “butter jellies” and Nemo for an hour then sure

I have a lot to discuss on the Popcast, but, naw. I’d rather just chill today.

Also, maybe it’s about time I look into a substitute host for the Popcast. It doesn’t have to be me every single week. Who here is good at sharing their opinions for an hour?

It's not just about beating teams, but when you beat them. The win against FTWin and Moonlight were a bit watered down at the time considering both teams already had multiple losses at that point.

Freeflow beat FTWin and Moonlight, only lost to Duck Motif and Milky Way.

Freeflow missed top 8, finished 10th.
