Hey you knuckleheads: KiX literally woke up to do the podcast. He's not "low energy" - that's how he is when he's not casting. Stop being dummies. Also eat your vitamins. Also stop playing Blackbeard. Thank you. ❤️😘😊❤️😊😘❤️
Ok flintstones vitamins are devoured and I’m ready to listen
I love this comment.
who plays BB on attack when u can play tachanka
@@alperbora9377 actually excited to see how the reworks looks and feels.
Brett Cherry aka PopDrop619 I can actually main tachanka and get some use out of the lord chanka skin I bought years ago
Watching this again right now further hurts my heart. I'm just not ready to say goodbye
same I’m watching this for remembering kix he left to fucking soon
INTERRO and KiX: "yeah we arent gonna name this person"
Troy: " OH I KNOW BEN"
INTERRO and KiX: *facepalm*
It's obviously CTZN
Kix and Interro pretty much the peanut butter and jelly of Siege at this point.
AceOfPyrite and Jacky have been very fun to listen to these couple of playdays imo. Not Kix&Interro level but still fun to listen to.
I ship 'em
😢
Rest in Peace, Michael. Thank you for everything.
Interro last episode: "people are saying 3 hours is too long"
*uploads 4 hour video instead*
They need to embrace their inner longman
This is gonna be something I come back to often to really remember Kix… RIP
Awww the passion this guy put into the game is unbelievable sad to hear the terrible news, will be missed by me
I’ve always enjoyed hearing you three discuss the game as individuals, so I KNOW this is heat 🔥
Great episode.
Kix done it all man. Glad you guys finally brought him on.
Also you guys spoiled us with a 4 hour episode. I could get used to this.
drinking game - every time Canadian says "like" you take a shot
If I did that I'd be dead from alcohol poisoning. LOL : )
BET
kix's deadpan stare melts my heart
ya love that boy
My two cents, I LOVE long podcasts, especially when it’s about a topic I enjoy. Thanks for the episodes! I love them all!!!!
As a French, I am sad the initial title wasn’t chosen..
I actually enjoy a long form podcast. Considering I’m at work listening to this it’s nice to have it go on for so long with great discussions!
I love you and I miss you kix
Thank you for another great episode. This was one of my favorite episodes yet!
Favorite Quote: "Sometimes, the best way to solve your own problem is to help someone else."
Kix looks like me when I'm zooted and super focused on something XD
I’ve always thought he looks zooted all the time
You can delete the comment
Also PLEASE advocate for an overview ONLY stream as well! Let casters see both so they can cast with full knowledge, and let the viewers choose their view!
TheRealTeal that’s a bit of a hard thing, assuming I understand what you’re saying, since there’s only one slot for a spectator
How would that even work? Maps are multiple floors and people are never ever all on the same floor. You wouldn't see anything really.
@@namavoid3266 Coulda sworn there was a spot for another spectator. Also, just regular overview mode, but for the whole game. It would catch most things. And if there really can't be more than 1 spectator... just add another slot to the server. Even if only for proleague, but tbh, it would be a simple addition for the public game too.
Parker, you didnt have to make a 4 hour podcast about how your facial hair is superior to kix's ponytail. Completely unnecessary.
Jokes aside, i enjoyed having the podcast on in the background during work. very chill.
4 hours is great. helps pass the day away. Great to hear from Kix as well.
I'm really ignorant of the pro scene but after this conversation I think I need to state it: Thank you Ben for everything you do.
P.S. keep these streams long, the longer the better ;)
Who’s ben
@@namavoid3266 They talk about him in the video
One thing I loved the idea of was having a event on a old map and have everything that was in the game like bandit jager acog and have the ops that were in the game at the time and itll be like flash backs and stuff would be a cool event
My favorite quote is from some CZcams video and it's about hard work. "You fail, you pick yourself up, and you fail again." And I enjoy longer podcasts. I run them at 2x speed anyway.
Canadian looking like Johnny Bravo over here
I liked his beard a lot. Sad he dropped it.
Wayne Gretzky: You miss 100% the shots you do not take
- Michael Scott
Ben. Thank you for supporting the Siege scene. I might not know you. Most of us probably none too. But you are doing God's work.
Jesus people watch for more than 20 minutes. Kix is not low energy at all.
Keep it long gives me something to listen to while driving up and down the highway
RIP bud, miss you already.
God i loved the down time conversations between kixs and interro
My favorite quote sun tzu- victory is reserved for those who are willing to pay its price
Almost a year later :( We still love and miss you Kix. We will never be the same without your presence but we will do our best to make you proud!
This took me multiple sittings to finish but I enjoy everything. I wish this was on spotify so I could download it and just listen while I drive.
We're on Spotify! bit.ly/SixOnSixSpotify
What's up guys, just wanna say u do a great job. Please more from that stuff. I'm German and love to hear u guys talking about siege and let us look behind the scene 👌👍
@2:31:30 it was Interro who was the guy who made the decision, everyone else involved had an idea and Kix gave him a good word.
golden quote:
do not do to others what you do not want to do to yourself
I feel like with community callouts it would be really cool if Ubisoft would actually recognise it and mark these calls on the compass.
You uh... You realise that Ubisoft makes maps.. before the community plays it
@@Tookeddd You uh... You realise that they can just change what is says on the compass
The 20 second meta as a spectator in my opinion it reallyyyy gets me at the edge of my seat 🥵🥵
Parker and Troy are killing it! And the guests awesome. The god emperor is honestly one of my favorite pro personalities out there and Kix, she is definitely the best caster.
Where do I go to find the discord link?
Can anyone explain what th EG and Fnatic game was?
OH MY GOD! Baby-face Troy is back!!
Patiently waiting on the king George episode
Or shaiiko or brid
Fkn finally!!🔥🔥
Good video!
Thank you for keepin tha long format but I love that shit
Anyone have a link of the casual cast game they mentioned at 3:51:07?
Keep it up , 4 hours is perfect
In regards to the casting/observing difficulty, is there a possibility to just delay the stream by 3-5 minutes, and then change camera perspectives in retrospect with the knowledge of what happened in the round? it would be more like editing a highlight reel of the round rather than live camera changes. And the casters would commentate over that, with excellent views of what happened.
I get that this was 8 months ago, but I felt Ace looked like McDonald's Hamburglar.
First episode I ever watched/listened to and loved it!
If you split the regions into their own Twitch channels, you could use the main channel for LANs of any size and you could also use it to spotlight nationals tournaments and other similar things.
All the Canadians would have gotten that french joke Interro!!
Hey interro if you manage to see this do you have advice on how a nobody ( someone like me ) can influence the community?
Canadians hair was on point for this episode. Kinda jealous
Where is the new one?
Whats canadians video on clever
Yayyyyy you got kikstar on :)))
Would love a DZ guest!
Nice episode and nice Discordlink in description
Obvious fix to gameplay: add two more bans!
R.I.P KiX
Legend.
#ripkix
Where’s the discord link
On the call outs point i would love a team like SSG to just release theirs. It would become the standard by virtue of it being the only detailed material out there.
4 hours went by fast
Mix lookin kinda dreamy ngl
the only quote i live by: the workers of the world have nothing to lose but their chains
their *jobs
Canadian with the clean shave
Kix X Six
I aint heard the name bloodbath in a minute.
Drinking game:every time someone says kix is tired take a shot
wisdom teeth are hell kix feel better!
You too.
Does Interro's cup say, "I miss drugs?"
facts
I know INTERRO just woke up for this but I swear he looks like he just boofed an 8 ball in this
You do like the word "nasty".....
Kix owes us nothing but sometimes it just feels like he didn't want to do this.
He kinda picks it up this is still good.
It's his personality. He does want to be there, he wouldn't have came if he didn't. They even talked about it a little.
It might seem like that, but I think drawing a distinction between casting personality and everyday personality is important, just how I had to do with Caster Interro vs Podcast Interro. Plus like the pinned comment says he just woke up in the beginning
It's just him warming up to conversation, you'll see this if you listen to the whole thing
He literally said on stream the night before he didn’t want to do it and that he wasn’t excited for it, he just didn’t want to upset Parker
I miss Panky! Can we get him back casting matches! It will be fun to see him in the mix
Like to show support... (seriously)
Kix's hair...how does he make that happen?
My coach quote:
If you lose say nothing, if you win say less.
It was on a poster in my wrestling room, and I could see it every practice, basically just reminding everyone to stay humble, and work hard.
I love undead Kix😂
Here Beaulo
this episode felt like Interro married Canadian and Kix is Interro's ex. Then Interro invited Kix to dinner with his new partner
get your kix on route 66
seems like kix is a little frustrated with troy
The most uncomfortable first few minutes on six on six. I liked that team orbit. Didnt expect they were having internal problems.
he looks abd behaves a lot of times like he is frustrated with somebody
bruh KixStar, when is your callout project ready??
Kix just looked pissed being here lmao
It's not rentfree it's the last dance lol
Why are they getting longer 😭😭
RIP Jager Acog
After reading this comment you won't get it out of your head
Just look at these stars then imagine
Johnny Cash (Parker), Michael Jackson (Kix), Elvis Presley (Canadian)
Y did kix look so mad
Probably tired bc as stated in the top comment he woke up to do the podcast. Its the same personality he has on stream and he definitely has to hype it up a bit for when he casts.
Ok ty Btw wasn’t trying to hate
It may come off that way but if you watch the whole thing you'll see he's just warming up to conversation, getting comfortable
4hrs.. good.
I miss kitchen KiX :(
I dont think its that Kix and Candian dont like each other its more that they was together in what sounded like a toxic enviorment and maybe they havent had a chance to clear that air before now.
You dont need to be mega energetic or happy to be interesting lol.
I would like to some1 from tsm on this
in the podcast with the coaches is pojoman from TSM
why does kix have poker face on its so scary for some reason
mega man thing?
Don't see milosh these days. He is great, did he stoped casting?
Rishi Kaushik he’s the stage host for eu league, he does interviews and shit now.
Yeah he doesn't want to cast apparently.
Flimpeen Flarmpoon why doesn’t he want to cast?
@@fellowbiodegradablehomosap2871 people get tired of doing things. who knows, it doesn't matter, there's plenty of other casters and he's a good host.
