    Richard PLEASE! As a Brazilian I feel deeply offended by what I've heard.
    It's not CachaCa, with the C sounding like a K. It's CachaÇa, with the Ç sounding like double S. Don't make this mistake again or I'll send you Vampeta's caralho again. Also you can use Sake or Vodka on Caipirinhas because not everyone here can handle their cachaça (pinga) either.

    Incredible video! You hit all the key points that caused this event to truly suck ass, you certainly opened my eyes to many things I didn't catch on to during the Major. For me, the most disappointing aspect was the crowd/event planners disrespect toward S1mple. Up until you began speaking about that subject, I was absolutely making a fool of myself I've been laughing so hard! As I listened to you detail the spitting, "banter", and booing towards Navi/S1mple himself, I found myself growing quite sad. In particular, the "Player of the Decade" reward. After watching the clip of him walking out to accept his award.. I'm absolutely disgusted by the situation and I physically feel gross. I can only hope that future tournaments held anywhere will learn from this complete failure in Rio that was supposed to amplify the great parts of the game that we love. Thank you Richard for highlighting the lowlights and holding the people who allowed this embarrassment to occur accountable. Keep up the amazing content!

The fact that the last time I get to see them play is against irrelevant sweaty try hards is such a disappointed.

    I'm not gonna lie, it does upset me to see this rift between Brazil and the rest of the world. But everytime Gaules goes on his tirades and I see everyone either buying his bullshit or too afraid to call him out on it, I see that it's not really undeserved. That guy is a liability to international relations, but he's the #1 and way too entrenched. It's a terrible feeling...
    On another note though, does that portuguese translator ever lived in Brazil? I have _never_ seen "apavoro" ever used in a threat. It's a silly word, kinda like saying "you'll be shook" in english. Extremely common among soccer fans. Yes, literally it means "terrified", but "break a leg" also literally sounds like a threat and it's not really what it means. Languages have those quirks that don't translate well. I still stand by that, in this particular case, that guy meant no harm at all.

  • @mateussilva6403
    @mateussilva6403 Před rokem

    As a Brazilian, in my opinion, I realized that your analysis, in some parts, was made by emotional aspects. Major was biggest of all. Making a 360 stage for 18,000 people is quite risky when a large part of the audience is organic. Unlike some events. Because having 7 thousand people seems empty. Because you can't close the top of the arena, use light play to hide the full capacity and etc. About the political part. I honestly don't understand my country's politics. Violence? hahhaa. The political in social media is a kind of entertainment because it makes money for influencers and independent journalists and serves as a way to gain political power. But it doesn't show the real reality. How politics is like entertainment. This somewhat affected the Challenger stages viewership. There are numerous problems in this major. But it is very difficult to make an event of almost 15 days uninterrupted without a big and good local team and a lot of preparation time. But that's my opinion

    IMO if a TO is hosting a major, use the fucking booths!
