Like a (hot) knife through butter
Like a (hot) knife through butter
This post is not about me. This post is about @schnapoon. I thought twice before writing this post. Am I doing the right thing? Am I building an air of expection and burden on his shoulder. Then I thought, one of the critical thing about star players is their ability to take mental pressure. That is critical and commonly seen on any champions.
Recently I have given an account to schnapoon to play in the Champions League. I gave him the account the day before the end of the season. The event was well received and is described here on this post. I didn't expect him to play the previous season at all and start at the current season. I wrote the following in my previous post
Watch him slice through the lower league next season as a hot knife through butter (I am thinking a win streak of 60 could be possible! eh?)
I was predicting a win streak of 60; this is what the Wonderboy of Kochi delivered on the last day!

Yes, you are reading that right in the Wild, he had 100 wins out of 101 games, and a single loss!
Enough said!
I have asked around, and a few players said that they have done a single push from zero to champions in a single go before. They were the days before the new ECR mechanism, not sure if this is done recently. If it is, I am not aware of it, so I am recording this!
I have mentioned this to a couple of people. The comments from Dave Mccoy is the one I like the best!
Dave said: 100 out of 101, if I was a bot I'd be scared!
We will see if Schnapoon can live up to his reputation or not, however, I have high hopes for him!
Also notice, Schnapoon have now joined Shield of Glory guild and will represent SoG, from the next brawl cycle onwards. I am happy to say that our guild is getting stronger by the season!
How how how how how?
yeah, my thoughts exactly :)
Lord 😅
100 out of 101? That's crazy 🤧
Indeed!
Did he play 200 matches in the one day? That is more then a feat in itself and winning 100 games out of 101 in Wild. That's just nuts.
Did he play Modern to Diamond just for fun :D
Hello! Thank you!!
Partly for fun, but also because the CR was dropping so low that I figured it would be a waste if I didn't proceed.
All the best mate. First heard about you when Kira was saying nasty things to you and saw your interview with Ashley. You three look like great guys and watching you battle in Splinterfest, I knew you were the real deal. Kanpai!
Yes. The Wonderboy of Kochi is real!
I think in about 10 hrs :)
Schnapoon should just do like a 10 hour battle stream on Twitch for EOS. Better then 90% of the gaming content on Twitch.
10 hrs is perhaps a bit much, but he should do more for sure :)
I speak very little English and people soon get bored with me. That is hard for me. First of all, I will learn to speak English!
You don't need to speak English, your actions speak more then words. 💪
Please let others decide that if they like your content or not :)
Language is overrated. You don't know any English and I don't know any Japanese. Did that stop either you or me to communicate with each other?
I am sure you have many Japanese fans and I would watch you play just because it's interesting. I wonder if Twitch has a live caption feature, akin to Youtube. I believe it does auto-translation as well?
I wanted my next Season Rewards to be the Champion's Treasure Chest! But I didn't expect it to go so smoothly, although one loss was frustrating. I was also advancing in the Silver League at the same time, so it was tense and fun!
Now this feat is etched permanently in the blockchain!
You're a great player, much respect! We got to meet briefly at Splinterfest (Rogue Patton introduced us). Best wishes to you!
Thanks, Splinterfest was fun! Give me a shout if you see me again!

Amazing! No wonder I lose to him every time I meet him in Silver...
Yes, for sure.
Lets see how he does in Champions.
Wow, the kid is a machine!
I am impressed by his humility more than his skills. He is just starting on Champions so, I will keep my expectation in check, but if he is successful, he can be a spokesperson for the game, he is that good.
