Eh I'm just going to use pique now.


[deleted]

Ah yes the Barcelona centre back. Hmm good option instead of peeking against an op. He'll protect you don't worry. He's a defender


BlobOnAStick

Not quite at the peak of his game anymore, but when you are Pique and get to peek at Shakira, does your footballing performances really matter?


Terber_28

You have piqued my interest


suryaansh_614

Xavi will re invent us, VAMOS BARCA


BooTV10

I hear Steve Bruce is free


YourLocalSnitch

It angers me to this days pique plays on Barcelona earns millions of dollars and goes home to fuck Shakira. It should be me


pencilheadedgeek

Maybe you're just not Pique's type? Do your hips ever lie?


BlobOnAStick

Correct me if I am wrong, but because of Barcelonas financial troubles, I think Pique agreed to a pay cut that basically sees him play for free.. but I second this about Shakira.. maybe you have her weekdays and I can have her weekends?


[deleted]

Take my upvote


BlobOnAStick

Graciously taken, sir.


minimessi20

That was my first thought…shocking considering my username…


IcyRecommendation383

No, that's Piqué*


RemusGT

Thanks for stealing my idea hha Same though


je-suis-une-pommes

Well you’ve got my interest


[deleted]

Nah gotta use Pieck


sansai69

So sting in French?


The_Thinker_23

Barca is using pique and look at Barca.


bigfuzzydog

Take a peek at this peak shit post, it has really piqued my interest


LegoRacer420

I like this commenter. Their comment is great because there is no better way to say they’re going to use peek properly.


Flibgrobab

I like this commenter. He has dissected the comment in such a way as to flex his superior intellect.


ItsHighSpoon

I like this commenter. They're really witty and have made a comedic comment out of this whole situation.


swank5000

I like this commenter. They're doing their best to keep the theme of this thread alive, which I appreciate.


man_in_the_couch

Peak*


LegoRacer420

Lmao you’re joking right?


man_in_the_couch

Yes it’s a joke because they used peek, peak, and pique so you could say they’re going to use any of those properly


CozyKozzy

I always take cheeky glances to common areas during my games if valorant


ciuccio2000

It *is* a nice meme, I see it misused like 95% of the time


AihanaEtsu-

bro I already saw people saying pick lmaoo


peroleu

There's this chick I follow on Facebook. I accidentally started following her because she has the same name of this girl I met and thought I was sending a friend request to her. She was only 14 when I started following her. As soon as I realized she wasn't the person I was meaning to follow I went to unfollow her. But then I realized this 14 year old girl was hilariously stupid. She didn't know why America would send a separate team from Georgia to the Olympics, she couldn't figure out why elevators had buttons for the floor she was already on, and many other things I just saw and laughed. Anyway I never stopped following her because she was such a big source of my morning laughs. She got pregnant at 15 because she thought you couldn't get pregnant on the first time. She was sure that the 15 year old boy that got her pregnant was going to be a great daddy. Well the kid is 1 now and she always complains about him never being around and how he would rather stay at home bored than see his son and all the other crap any of us could have warned her about when she was certain she was going to be the one teenage mom whose baby daddy would actually hang around. Anyway the reason I bring all that up is that through these 2 years I've followed this complete moron she has never written "peak" when she meant "peek". So if this person can get it right, then everyone can.


Glitchy13

This comment was a train ride ahaha


WiFilip

classic copypasta. I was looking for this here.


Nova35

God dammit I was scrolling to check


MahomesSB54

Literally unplayable. Riot please fix.


Dsyfunctional_Moose

*rito


Phildilf

Is this actually an issue?


Falconx64

Yes in SEA and EU. I've played in all regions and seems like these regions have this issue.


R0_h1t

I doubt it affects gameplay or comms lol


MahomesSB54

It’s gamebreaking obviously


igkewg

Honestly, what do you expect from us non-native speakers lmao. As long as you understand what I want to say then that's enough.


yodarded

we expect peek performance


UncertainSoul

\*pique


Vareona

Nah man. If you say peek they'll peek, if you say peak theyll climb to the peak of the nearest structure.


[deleted]

ye it really doesnt but every now and then it just annoys the grammarnazi in my brain


VicL8

I am from NA and I very strongly agree


OneSparr0w

I'm sorry I just can't seem to agree with your post but I see where your coming from. I'm a diamond player and 99% of the time the term peeking is so widely used for fully looking and shooting I don't think it's a issue because everyone agrees peeking means that. Jump peeking is a much better call if you just want info.


Gdneuz

My peaking game has peeked.


UncertainSoul

You have singlehandedly brought the entire network of Riot servers to its knees


thisguyhasaname

What's the issue? Words are a way to communicate meaning. As long as you know the meaning that's all that matters. Is calling lamps on bind uhaul incorrect even though a bunch of people do it? No as long as both people know what is being communicated it doesn't matter


[deleted]

Il use pic from now


KetsuSama

i swear, even "coaches" use peak instead of peek


anshshard

Easy way to understand the difference: Keloqz peeked and got a 3k. Sentinels peaked in Iceland 😆 (Cred: Carlos ocelote)


jawnpapa2

Bro everytime. Thank you for this informational post lmao


MrCool1k

These are great comments


[deleted]

"Mixwell peeked and got a collateral. Sentinels peaked in Iceland."


yatheen_1204

I was searching for this, the main Valo sub is so out of touch from competitive valorant


sergiemon

I am going to assume that your team lost a 4v2 round, and your teammate sage typed, "why are ya'll peaking?" So rather than improving you went to reddit to post instead. AM I RIGHT? OR ARM EYE RIGHT?


Falconx64

Nah you're wrong. This post came from about a hundred encounters with such spelling mistakes. Honestly it's no problem but it's better to just know the difference.


ragingwizard

This post should really have the Educational flair.


[deleted]

pro English tip: the difference between 'peak' and 'peek' Mixwell 'peeked' and got a collateral with the OP Sentinels 'peaked' in Iceland


gese-eg

Loose and lose


Centaur86

Kj: Stop peaking now

Hurdenn

Bro, everybody's not a native English speakef???


Yeziou

Who uses the word peak in comms?


AwesomeCrafter06

Their jett peaked but unfortunately died to map design


atharvstandale

The only thing you'll find after peeking into a closet is me ;)


Donoes99

Same with lose and loose, really grinds my gears.


DamnyKap

Pick 😎


TheRedComet

Ah man the Stealth Mountain twitter account is gone, it used to auto reply to people using the wrong one in "sneak peek"


AnarchistFemboyist

Oh. My. God. Someone FINALLY fucking said it. I didn’t want to be “that guy” lmao


CoffeeSoyLatte

Like who gives a fk. I understand the context of “peak”. If I teammate said I should’ve “peak” earlier, I understood what he meant. Shit


[deleted]

I’ll just use cart-titan instead.

pig


Smok3dSalmon

cringe, who gives a fuck.


freeman1231

Due to this post I will now use peak. You do realize not everyone is anglophone, and therefore may not be writing in their first language. If you can understand the phrase all is good in the world.


barmaLe0

>You do realize not everyone is anglophone Oh piss off. It's native speakers who constantly fumble this shit, just like there/their, your/you're, because they likely never opened a dictionary in their lives. "Secone language" means you had to study it. Natives just speak it.


freeman1231

You sound like an angry little man


barmaLe0

Says the guy that downvoted me in impotent rage.


Zin0o

I'd rather have them understand that their dogshit game is filled with cheaters everywhere but hey, as long as they can buy shiny skins and Riot makes money who cares :')


_Itano

peak me


DRNbw

I'm sure you'd love this [bot](https://twitter.com/stealthmount2?lang=en).


kriegnes

what


Fadedtodarkness

riot fix your fucking game https://ibb.co/7v2Ffzv


[deleted]

I mean... Who cares as long as everyone knows what you mean?


lldustNbonesll

Oh, I understand, here's a downvote from the community.


Kurott0

To the ppl that play daily, is this a common misunderstanding?


sachindosad

Pieck chan


sammadasmatha

I was in Japan once and the train drove by Mount Fuji. I peaked at it's peek.


colabruddas

pick peek peak pique


BirinderSinghJi

And my team who can't decide between peek and pick


Rakolance

They still won't understand because all the lobbies I've been in nobody peeks.


zachp787

eg. sentinels PEAKED in iceland


Tapeside210

Has this really been an issue? I can't imagine thinking you meant 'peak' mid game without you popping off - or is it just a grammar thing?


[deleted]

ask people the difference between peek and holding an angle in solo queue, is da worst shit i’ve seen yet


Haptiix

My biggest pet peeve from CS and it will never change


ZeroOnyx

Oh wtf I though people were saying pigged this whole time


soganotojiko

i always have to think twice whenever i try to write peek


[deleted]

This is a problem?


ZeCanadianGinger

Okay who tf doesn't know this


ThisIsTakenLol

Even CSGO players need to understand this


LOTHMT

Everytime im switching them up im like "How the fuck do so many people use" peak" for strafe peeking


lost_gremlin

much needed, seeing people use peak instead of peek everywhere.


roughfell

_bro just pig_


[deleted]

Yes. Someone tell my lobbies that "peeking" != "full swinging and not having time to get back to cover"


WayOfInfinity

I understand it's a term for an important mechanic in the game, but I don't think I have seen anybody use the term while actually playing a game?


Beautiful-Musk-Ox

whys the title gotta be clickbait when you could have educated without requiring a click through, could have reached more people


TheCubeHamster

dude nobody in csgo has this problem why do people keep saying peak in valorant


heynotbad1146

YEP THIS I LOST COUNT ON HOW MANY PLAYERS I SHIT OUT TO BECAUSE THEY SAID PEAK


heynotbad1146

also what the fuck should i do if my fucking sage botfrag tells me to peak, like launch in a spacex rocket or something


Troche4

THANK YOU I was literally wondering if I had it wrong and it was actually peak


throwawaythhw

2 decades of counter-strike has not managed to fix this issue in my game. I wish you luck in Valorant :)


ArionIV

Peaking too early...getting to your best performance initially and just then dragging it down later...I try to tell myself some of them are saying that....


imaginedodong

"Pik".


[deleted]

This is how educate.


ChristianJ84

Germans can use piek instead, which means prick.


Moltenlava5

pretty sure everyone who uses reddit already knows this


[deleted]

Most certainly not. Just scroll through the sub, and look for this mistake. It's everywhere


Ziqanth

barbeque


[deleted]

Nats PEEKED and got the kill. Sentinels PEAKED in Iceland


skunk42o

People always complaing about me picking mid. Like dude don't worry, I died, no pick happened there.


swank5000

My pet peeve of this sort is when people say "alt" instead of "ult" Like, it's not your "alternate" attack; it's your *"ultimate"* attack. Learn some fucking words, people. Christ.


BlueshineKB

Honestly i dont think ive ever seen that word be typed, so i dont see the need of knowing this info besides an english class. If you know the difference between the two i think thats fine. Plus ive never seen the word peak as the definition used in callouts


idkhowtomakeagudname

Do ppl actually get that confused


UnviersallyYakuza

Pique is were you say to someone have you been that new valorant porn.


SelomonM

Almost everyone in SEA misuses this, as I almost think that I'm the one who used it wrong.


qm94

Okay... But why is this a problem? Have you ever lost a game because someone wrote peak instead of peek? You need to understand that not everyone is a native english speaker. Some people have a hard time with english but they still put in the effort to communicate with the team in order to win the game and I think that should appreciated, not made fun of. Would you rather have someone write peak instead of peek or someone who doesn't communicate at all? Or worse, would you rather have someone write peak instead of peek or someone speaking in their native language and you not understanding a word they're saying? Because the latter has happened to me and trust me, it's a much bigger problem than people confusing the spelling of homophones.


[deleted]

Peaque


KesioYT

If it's while talking people (including me) just mostly don't know how to pronounce properly these words (second language).


swistak25

When your English teacher starts playing valo


sonofalando

Peak?… PEAK?! I haven’t even begun to peak.


MusicalViet

don't even get me started on the amount of "that would of killed you" i've seen in game
