WWE Hell in a Cell 2018

so i'm a little late but hey.. 
better late than never right?
anyway.. i thought WWE Hell in a Cell was great!

first thing that stood out to me was seeing Becky Lynch finally getting the title run that she deserves! i think she's got an attractive face too so that really helps add to her already prolific in-ring abilities.

and i'm seeing a lot more variety from Rhonda Rousey now she's making such a smooth transition from UFC Fighter to WWE Superstar.

if you're looking for that nandos sauce on your chicken, here it is! i was SHOOK(chinese/vietnamese mispronunciation of shocked) at how elated i was to see Brock Lesnar near the end of the show! you gotta check out the wwe network if you wanna see what he did inside the ring! haha

on to the weeks post-Hell in a Cell.. what a fantastic job the scriptwriters/talent/creative department did to pair up this Lio Rush with Bobby Lashley!

i too felt there was an element missing from Bobby Lashley's return and i think this Lio Rush has what it takes to draw in more viewership for whenever Bobby competes.

ooh my am i glad to see both the Shield and the new squad on the right competing. you can never go wrong with putting Dean Ambrose in a match =) but of course, the storyline and frequency of appearances should go hand in hand to keep the spark renewed and yearned for imo.

WWE never fails to impress me and that's why i'll never stop watching. have a nice day all!

Cooler Master Masterkeys Pro M

so my dad recently gifted me with an RGB keyboard because he's cool like this Cooler Master Masterkeys Pro M =)

believe it or not it's my first time owning an RGB keyboard as my Armageddon one has proven to be quite reliable

but being a noob at peripherals doesn't mean i shouldn't at least share how i feel about this gem of a mechanical keyboard eh? haha

after strolling around for a bit, we decided to make the purchase at Cybermind Computer House, located at level 3 or 4 of Sim Lim Square i can't remember off-hand lol. but yea what really was the decider was the staff's impartial and informative service. think his name is Sam or something definitely recommend him if you lack the time to do much research.

so first things first, the amount of customization and software available was a lil overwhelming so i opted not to download any software for the time being and stuck to just the simple hardware controls.

holding FN while tapping F4 will allow you to scroll through the various RGB options. personally i find the rainbow colour from left to right most enticing with the slow breathing effect coming in second but hey.. you may have different inclinations so no worries.

next up, on some schemes you can select not just which colours you want but how bright you want them to be by individually tapping either F1, F2 or F3, up to 9 times respectively.

so far that's what i've tried and yea! i think it's great for me but there're a ton more macros and colour combinations for you to explore if you're a veteran of such items!

aside from the RGB are the Cherry MX keys. i chose the brown ones over the blue for two reasons-no stock for the latter colour and clicking sound a tad bit too loud for my liking. but based on what i've heard, the blue ones are more highly wanted than brown so you may want to try it out for yourself in person before buying.

made a short clip of it for the TLDR version =)

in conclusion, for SGD $129, i give this Cooler Master Masterkeys Pro M RGB Keyboard a 9 out of 10 for its usability, sturdy build quality, multiple features and RGB aesthetics.

Team Liquid Achievements at MSI Bring Hope to NA

Team Liquid

i'm still proud of your performance mates

now inb4 all the "what MSI were you watching?" or "are your glasses NA rose coloured much?" .. yes i'm equally downcast by the end result as you are and yes i've watched every single TL game right up till the heart wrenching defeat by RNG and then FNC in the tiebreaker. so chill guys chill while I explain the reason for my title..

a team of five talented players recently strung together for one spring split(yes that's right only one split together as a squad), managed to dethrone the stronghold of TSM, oust out CLG and evict C9 to get number one for their very first time in the NA spring split of 2018. this is the TL you are seeing right now

their strength of schedule?
  1. KZ- LCK region no.1 .. nuff said
  2. RNG- renowned powerhouse in China now with addition of Karsa
  3. FW- the korean assassins who dominated LMS again
  4. FNC- long time household name of EU with home ground advantage
  5. EVS- an upgraded version of Gigabyte Marines

so if you think you can form a crew of five right now like TL did, beat your region and take these abovementioned teams down, then i will stop talking right here. but you can't right? and you don't have to, because you are meant for something great in life and not to shut my low elo mouth up, online...

ok i stop digressing sorry. moving on..


as what Froskurin, Isaac Azael and David Phreak said, TL really did have those multiple flashes of brilliance, and then some, despite the international giants they had to face.

i'm talking Impact's several pinpoint ultimates (dunno what that's called since i haven't played the game for years). i'm talking FiveThousandLift's immaculate positioning, laning and teamfighting. i'm talking Pobelter's efficiency and decent objective priority(although he really should stop speaking so arrogantly and learn from flash wolves' interviewees). i'm talking Olleh's unsung support prowess. i'm talking Xsmithie's massive improvement as a pro player/jungler as compared to a few years ago.

i think their performance at MSI shows that NA are doing some things right. that they are really NOT a joke of a region. that it really brings hope to the top teams of NA who want to represent on the next international stage. shore up some of those flaws and Worlds 2018 is NA's oyster imo.

have a good rest for now Team Liquid you deserve it. have a few days of fun in Germany and get back home to start kicking butt! haha ok that's all folks take care bye cyaa
