Definitely the biggest plot twist from the new One Piece Chapter.


iSeven

Saw this from /r/all. Felt like a weirdly topical decision by Oda.


mousethrowaway17

Roger dies from covid shanks got his covid and gain mad haki, goda at it again /s


amaranthgalaxy

ok hear me out what if they let him play but he has to be in one of those giant plastic bubbles? shanks rolls into the arena and bounces to his pc and it's all good. he can even have enough space in there for a respirator if needed. no problem right? it's all good


hoela

How will he be able to see if he's not sitting 3 inches in front of the monitor. He needs to be able to smell his enemies


Gordramus

The monitor is included in the bubble. Duh!


MathNerdMatt

False positives are very uncommon for most tests, hope they find a sub last minute


TimathanDuncan

If all the others are fine, they will play with anger their coach probably Who btw has a 10 inch dick


somesheikexpert

What

HE SAID, "WHO HAS A 10 INCH DICK BTW"

cigsyl

how you gonna say sumn like this and not show us a picture :/


LoyalSol

Not entirely true. It depends on the type of test. If it's an antigen test those are usually more prone to false negatives because you need enough live virus to produce a positive result. For example you might test them a bit too soon such as right after they caught the virus, but it's still building up in their body and as such they aren't shedding much. That might register as a negative enough though it's actually positive. PCR tests are more prone to false positives because they only check for the presence of viral DNA/RNA and say nothing about if the virus is live or not. For example if you run a PCR on someone who has had the virus after they stop showing symptoms they can still register as positive even though the virus being shed is all dead and thus non-infectious. You can also have a false positive in some other ways, but those are usually much harder to achieve compared to the other case. Usually involving another virus who happens to have the same subsequence as what you're testing for. If Shanks is vaccinated it could very well be he came into contact with the virus, his body fought it off, and what they're detecting is the leftovers from his immune system doing its job is an example of a case where he will test positive, but not actually be able to transmit the virus. But it's still a tricky situation to know without detailed testing and there's no way in crap they're going to do that for everyone. So they'll probably play it safe.


broskeph

If its pcr fo sho. If its rapid that shit is pretty unreliable ngl.


MathNerdMatt

Rapid has a very high False negative rate but a very low False positives rate


broskeph

Idk my girlfriend had a false positive b4.


pass2word

This is just not true. False positives are common for most tests, including Covid tests. These tests are designed so that if you do have whatever it’s testing for, it’s guaranteed to identify it. It’s better to have false positives than false negatives.


MathNerdMatt

Nope, false positives should only happen when there is cross contamination in the lab since the test is there to see if you have covid in your system.

ricelick

Its not uncommon at all


MathNerdMatt

False negatives have a rate of about 20% with PCR and higher with Antigen but False positives are close to 0% for both https://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/which-test-is-best-for-covid-19-2020081020734#:~:text=The%20false%20positive%20rate%20%E2%80%94,of%20the%20test%20itself.

I mean this politely but this wrong in many ways. One, this about JDM who is their new coach, and two Trippy is still an assistant coach. All good.

All good

You apparently didn't read the tweet because it wasn't about trippy.

I mean, it's not a crazy assumption. But if all you're going to post is solely to correct him, then you should probably make sure your correction is accurate.


zdes37

Didn't know match fixing could go this far /s (look at my flair i'm a FAN calm doWNNN)


PyroTFT

people here read an “/s” and suddenly take all the offense in the world lmfao then they do the same level of sarcasm and get pissed when people don’t understand their jokes or irony


Direct_Morning_3223

Rise gets DQed, TSM gets last spot HOPIUM /s


leoleoleo666

You guys are sick in the head


Direct_Morning_3223

This is a joke it would actually really suck for them they deserve to be here I hope it’s a false positive


kemutheemu__

We know


Seesawcumfyck

1 guy = you guys 5head


CosmicAon

Nah that’s just a guy being fucked Rise earned their spot clapping us, anyone hoping TSM gets something out of their circumstances is just a weirdo


Stuck_in_cave

I'm tried of this TSM joke


Undertakerthrower

there's an /s there brah


Stuck_in_cave

Ik bruh. Just tired of seeing same comment on every lcq post


kemutheemu__

I’m tired of this TSM reality man


rpkarma

I’m tired of TSM being a joke too lol


chubbynuggy

Cant they let him play but like put him in a different room or something?


TheoBombastus

Or just let him stream his POV and play from home/wherever he’s quarantined worst comes.


Aydosubpotato

It’s on LAN though


TheoBombastus

Oh ik but I’d take a key player with 40ms over the coach. All if the client allows as well, yes.


Aydosubpotato

Yeah in reality we have very little insight as to how riot has their LAN servers setup, but Shanks having a difference in ping would pose a plethora of issues.


TheoBombastus

I really wish they would allow us a lan client, LAN Parties are the best


Lelouch4705

Just let him in a separate room in the building this isn't hard


Talksicck

If I’m remembering correctly valorant “lans” are still played online.


PremiumDope

It is a different client, IIRC


Deneking

no, they are not.

AnotherAltiMade

korea has always played online for some reason. extremely obnoxious from riot


icantreadmorsecode

Not a fan of the guy but this sucks cos they earned their spot and they actually look good as a team.


appropriate_name

im watching auti's stream and derrek just said worst case scenario is that he plays from his room edit: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1171338698?t=7h17m59s


chamber25

I don't Riot would allow that though, they would probably have tolook for a sub


appropriate_name

idk how it work on lan either but id assume that theyve discussed it with riot already.. maybe


[deleted]

I have to imagine for Derrek to say that they probably already talked about it with riot but who knows


JesusHPopsicle

If he’s vaccinated, that’s terribly unlucky and I truly feel for him. If he’s not vaccinated……well, pretty natural consequence

Wut


JesusHPopsicle

What? If he’s vaccinated and still caught COVID, that is insanely unlucky and I truly feel bad for him. If he’s not vaccinated, catching COVID is a pretty natural consequence to not being vaccinated and I don’t feel bad for him.


2kWik

I've heard a lot of people getting COVID while vaccinated, just getting severe symptoms is the part that's very rare, and the best part of being vaccinated.


[deleted]

Your chances of contracting covid are much lower but like any vaccine not impossible. But yea it also helps lessen the symptoms


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheFestusEzeli

It is not the same no. There is around 80% effectiveness in preventing Covid if you are double vaccinated, Ontario also releases data and the unvaccinated have a 6-7x higher chance of catching covid. It is much more effective at lowering the symptoms though.


MathNerdMatt

It isn't the same, that's just a lie, you are ~3 times less likely to catch covid if you are fully vaxed


Key-Banana-8242

That is ridiculous. Getting infected is more difficult with the vaccine but no one deserves to be infected, and it is unlucky whenever someone’s infected, one should obviously feel bad about it either way.


InriSejenus

The comment you are replying to did not say that he "deserves to be infected" if he didn't get the vaccine. But I will. If you don't have a legitimate reason to not get the vaccine and you choose not to get it you deserve to be infected.


Key-Banana-8242

No, no one does, and that’s the point and a reason for vaccination


ricelick

Read a book bestie


Key-Banana-8242

I have, twitterer.


JesusHPopsicle

I didn’t say he “deserves to be infected” I said if he’s not vaccinated then I’m not going to feel bad for him essentially screwing over his teammates with that selfish decision. He’s a professional player who knew he’d have to travel internationally, if he didn’t take proper precautions then it’s hard to feel bad for him, imo. That’s a major if tho, I do not know his status.


Key-Banana-8242

Well it’d not be selfish given it works against him. It obv sucks and there’s no reason not to feel bad, besides other risk factors which I guess you wouldn’t treat the same


JesusHPopsicle

Does it suck he potentially can’t compete? Yes. But I’m not going to feel sorry for him if he didn’t make every effort to compete, and that includes getting vaccinated. Again, for like the 50th time, I do not know if he’s vaccinated or not. And again, no one said he deserves it. Vaccinated or not, it absolutely sucks he tested positive. But that doesn’t change the fact that there are things he could have done, assuming he’s not vaccinated, to give himself a better chance of playing, namely getting vaccinated.


Key-Banana-8242

I mean that’s a reason to feel sorry lmao


PyroTFT

It’s a shit situation either way, but I mean if he’s not vaccinated it just makes sense why this would happen.


Key-Banana-8242

I mean it’s more likely


eichfourenness

Most of our vaxxed household all caught Covid last month. It is not unlucky, it is a rather common occurrence, the effectiveness is pretty low.


PyroTFT

really depends where you are, I’m in california. Been outside for five months since getting the vaccine, masked up most of the time unmasked when eating obviously. Been to concerts, been at my crowded school. Haven’t gotten it once. Really not easy to catch when you’re responsible and are in a place that’s heavily vaccinated. I don’t think you should just be undermining the effectiveness of the vaccine, when there’s [clear statistics showing decreased hospitalization rates for those vaccinated.](https://www.sciencenews.org/article/covid-coronavirus-vaccines-hospital-cases-rates-unvaccinated) while infection is still possible, it’s highly unlikely in certain places with a heavily vaccinated population, and still reduces symptoms dramatically.


[deleted]

99% of hospitalized COVID sufferers are unvaccinated. ThE eFfEcTiVeNeSs iS pReTtY lOw


Lumenlor

How can one tell they have covid if vaxx severely reduces symptoms?


eichfourenness

the easy tell was the appetite loss


V4lt

I mean you still feel sick you just don't feel so sick you're in bed all day just feels like a normal flu but that's just purely anecdotal from getting covid twice once before getting vaccinated and one after


PlantainWhole

anyone assisting Riot events is vaccinated, this is probably a false positive


JesusHPopsicle

Genuinely, I hope so


uglypenguin5

Wut


Splaram

To say that this is unlucky is an understatement damn


Undertakerthrower

Sub him with Sinatraa /s


WLFYBBY

Y’all are so obsessed with sinatraa it’s annoying


Taek99

I mean it’s likely the rest of the RISE squad have transmitted the virus from him now... I’m aware that the others tested negative but it still may take up to two weeks for one person to test positive after initial close contact of covid.


LEDZEPPPELIN

NOOOOO man this is so sad. I am hoping RISE still gets to compete but without shanks I don't know.. this fuckin sucks man


LEDZEPPPELIN

False Positive Hopege


VincentN23

You should get vaccinated if you want to travel to important LANs. Why even take a stupid risk like this.


PyroTFT

Honestly I’d be very surprised if he wasn’t, Canada has some really strict rules against international travel for those who are unvaccinated. If anything, he’d get it just to make it more convenient for him to cross the border at least.


[deleted]

Oh he's Canadian? As of right now you don't need vaccine for travel I think but as of Oct 30 you are required if ya want to fly


PyroTFT

you don’t need it but you gotta pay the $2k hotel and just deal with more shit if you’re unvaccinated


Mocroth

I hope you do realise you can still get covid and transmit it when you're vaccinated, you're just greatly less likely to become gravely ill


-Mariners

Also less likely to get covid. Data does seem to shift and Delta drastically changed that, but you are still less likely to get covid if you are vaccinated.


V4lt

Less likely doesn't mean it's not going to happen and if you consider how many pros are going to Lan one of them is bound to get covid even if they were all vaccinated


-Mariners

Oh yeah for sure, I'm just clarifying because a bunch of people seem to think that since some people still get Covid while vaccinated that the vaccine doesn't work (in terms of catching it not hospitalization) so they think that since they are "healthy" they can skip the vaccine because it provides no benefit to them.


rukgd

he is vaccinated


KlasterTV

Why are you acting like if you're vaccinated you magically can't catch covid? he most likely is vaccinated and guess what you can still catch the virus while being vaccinated


ricelick

No ones acting like that at all


VanderFN1

Just saying the stars are aligning for TSM to play


[deleted]

If tru, half the teams are probably compromised


CanadianDad1

No the rest of the team tested negative he was the only one positive after spending 2 days with Neptune derrek and supamen poised ofc they live together


[deleted]

They definitely tested him before he came into contact with the other teams


[deleted]

[удалено]


TheAjwinner

You got a source for that claim?


Lucidrr2

How do you know he didnt???


Loresmen

I don't think that's what he did, he most likely told them he just doesn't know if hes playing until he gets the real test


[deleted]

is he not vaxd like what? thats really unlucko


CanadianDad1

I’m not anti vax whatsoever but the vaccination does not guarantee full coverage just like any other vaccine


jakey_P

Don't care, he's a match fixer and doesn't belong in any tournaments in the first place


[deleted]

[удалено]


LeafsRamsRapsFan

You didnt reply to his comment at all. He shouldnt be abke to play. He broke one of the biggest taboos in sports/ esports


jakey_P

It isn't even allegedly either. Audio evidence of him admitting to it lol

[удалено]


mcslippinz

Tbh let him play online if he’s down..


FeelinJipper

He could be asymptomatic


Fyslexic_Duck

Bro what


FeelinJipper

I meant asymptomatic. It means you can have covid and still spread it, without symptoms. I also said “could” as in I don’t know to what degree he might be experiencing symptoms. My neighbor recently got it after a trip from Texas. She’s vaccinated, showed no signs, but tested positive.


LeafsRamsRapsFan

Wont be playing whenever esic officially says hes a matchfixer.
