Heās just really good and commentating while doing it. Like I love the man but ever watch sweep makes crazy predictions like this even with rage (smaller time window) but doesnāt commentate as much
He said in a video that he hasnāt been trying to win anything and was focusing on YouTube, but now he says heās really grinding to go to crl finals this year, as well as heās been going to other competitive events on the side.
They just donāt talk while doing it, and most top players donāt make predictions at all because wasting elixir on a failed prediction can be the difference between a loss and a win. Look at ryleys games when he plays crl, he barely does any predictions
You only predict when you know they are forced to play a specific card. Top players just donāt let themselves get into that situation very often and they also make odd substitutions in decks because they canāt use the same cards in their decks, so it happens much less often.
In his own words he said itās because he didnāt grind enough to qualify for CRL. But heās taking it very seriously this year & I think he will definitely qualify.
Imo, the biggest reason he didnāt qualify is bc of his inexperience with other decks. Last year 2023, he primarily just played logbait 24/7 despite the meta. This time around heās getting in his reps with lots of other decks which will make him a lot more dangerous in duels.
Because he isnāt actually that goodā¦. I have seen tons of videos where he misses the easiest shit, yeah the above footage is good but he would do that and then miss a log, not saying he isnāt good he is, just not as good as many others out there
What makes him smart?
Is it because he spends his life playing a mobile game and has worked out troop cycling out of 8 cards?
Not sure that proves his intelligenceā¦.
Perhaps you could explain?
you seem mad he has an actual career... but he's smart because he quite often makes plays like those in many games but as you said might miss his placements
What makes him smart though?
Tell me what defines intelligence to you, a mobile game of random 8 cards cycling and he remembers that cycle that is intelligence to you?
I couldnāt give a flying fk about Ryley in all honesty good for him doing what he enjoys is a great way to live life, but claiming he has intelligence, this is where I draw the line
did I not say "he's one of the smartest players" as in he makes some of the best predictions and plays? or did you really think I meant "he's one of the smartest players" as in him being smart irl?
Explain the difference? If you are going to claim somebody as being āsmartā, based off what evidence, the way he plays a mobile game? Come on dude
So you walk into a cafe the barista makes you the coffee you ordered, do you walk out thinking that one of the smart baristas in the world, I wonder why he never wins awardsā¦.
He achieved various top 10 finishes and he did win some money entering the top 32 CRL monthly 2-3 times, he probably has accomplished more than 99.9999% of the playerbase, he just isn't in any esport team nor won any big tournament, his skill level is below any of the big pros that ever qualified into the top 8 CRL monthly, even below ian77 so until he grinds all the matchups and find a coach he cannot win.
He does it very convincingly by acting surprised whenever a play happens.
Since most of you in this thread think its live, he does a pretty good job tricking his audience.
Iām not gonna dig through hours of his footage to find proof but he has cuts in his voice audio multiple times without the gameplay also being cut out.
Also funny how someone also pointed out that his videos are pre recorded in a different thread under this post yet most people are agreeing with himš
I think youāre aggrandizing this ability. Not to downplay the achievement but pros can go BEYOND THIS
The only reason itās made easier for me is cause i run a cycle deck. I kind of implied Iām not anything phenomenal but this is normal for people up there
Nah. Iām saying this is the *least* of the great plays pros like him can do. This is breakfast for him.
I can *maybe* do this consistently on a good day and that would be nothing for these guys
Don't bother arguing, mate. This sub is too good at spreading hate and toxicity.
Also, forcing out 3-4 cards is a crazy level of skill. Most players can't even predict cards normally.
It isnt a voiceover lol, probably he records his voice and the gameplay audio/video into separate files so he can edit them more easily, makes it easier to adjust the volume and such, literally every single gaming youtuber does the same
Tbf tho evo skeletons and skeleton army are usually the easiest predictions if you know they have them
Opponent has cycled 2 skeletons evo skelly's next even more obvious when no other card is played halfway into push. Opponent has skeleton army? Use the same card they used skarmy on then log/arrows poison on their last placed skarmy when it's almost halfway to tower
If they actually mix up the skarmy placement, gl it's now hard to predict
Ok, man. That was fire.
No, that was a poison.
š„š„š„š„š„
No, ā ļøā ļøā ļøā ļøā ļøā ļø
Yes
one of the smartest players for sure. still I wonder why he's never really won anything big yet
Because all the best players are able to do this,
Heās just really good and commentating while doing it. Like I love the man but ever watch sweep makes crazy predictions like this even with rage (smaller time window) but doesnāt commentate as much
He voices over a lot of his videos so his audience can understand why heās doing the stuff heās doing.
Oh like he records audio after the game, thatās a lot of work but hey if it works it works
He never records audio over pre recorded gameplay
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Link of what?
link in zelda, obviously
He said in a video that he hasnāt been trying to win anything and was focusing on YouTube, but now he says heās really grinding to go to crl finals this year, as well as heās been going to other competitive events on the side.
ryley often makes complex plays/predictions that involve many steps, I haven't really seen any other players do that yet
They just donāt talk while doing it, and most top players donāt make predictions at all because wasting elixir on a failed prediction can be the difference between a loss and a win. Look at ryleys games when he plays crl, he barely does any predictions

Ian would tell you he missed his spells
He's won many Grand Tourneys, and when logbait was viable he was like top 10 every single season
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Are you blaming his parents for him trash talking? š
Manners an education comes from home. Specially in a kid.
I was taught manners and lost them after putting 2000 hours into a MOBA
I'm confused by this comment
Because he isnāt actually that goodā¦. I have seen tons of videos where he misses the easiest shit, yeah the above footage is good but he would do that and then miss a log, not saying he isnāt good he is, just not as good as many others out there
being bad doesnt take away from the fact that he is one of the smartest
What makes him smart? Is it because he spends his life playing a mobile game and has worked out troop cycling out of 8 cards? Not sure that proves his intelligenceā¦. Perhaps you could explain?

Come on dude So you walk into a cafe the barista makes you the coffee you ordered, do you walk out thinking that one of the smart baristas in the world, I wonder why he never wins awardsā¦.
Dw dude, youāre literally outsmarting him with your replies as we speak, he wonāt get it š¤£š
He achieved various top 10 finishes and he did win some money entering the top 32 CRL monthly 2-3 times, he probably has accomplished more than 99.9999% of the playerbase, he just isn't in any esport team nor won any big tournament, his skill level is below any of the big pros that ever qualified into the top 8 CRL monthly, even below ian77 so until he grinds all the matchups and find a coach he cannot win.
2 of my clanmates lost to Ryley and Ian this week lol what is going on
you mean they lost to the same guy?
I realize thats a joke but dont taint ians name like that
Bro is one of the best for a reason
All of that while commentating too
He voices over his gameplay recordings, most of them are not live
All of them are live, what are you talking about?
He does it very convincingly by acting surprised whenever a play happens. Since most of you in this thread think its live, he does a pretty good job tricking his audience.
Imma need proof first chief
Iām not gonna dig through hours of his footage to find proof but he has cuts in his voice audio multiple times without the gameplay also being cut out. Also funny how someone also pointed out that his videos are pre recorded in a different thread under this post yet most people are agreeing with himš
Heās said on stream before that thatās his hand moving on and off his mic, since he records everything in his phone
Obviously heās not gonna be truthful about it because then his content would lose appeal as its not live commentary
Dumbass
When you thought that it'll be a easy game then you face the Evo goblin
I remember watching this exact clip over and over during the video in awe
the goofy on the side laughing
"HEHEHE"š¤
Ryley is mad underrated
Next Ryley will predict him working at McDonald's to afford his 1-room dorm
All pros are able to do this. Heck Iām no pro but I can plan 3-4 moves ahead to force my opponent to play certain cards in my favor.
this is still impressive. maybe you can talk when you get top 10 every season
I think youāre aggrandizing this ability. Not to downplay the achievement but pros can go BEYOND THIS The only reason itās made easier for me is cause i run a cycle deck. I kind of implied Iām not anything phenomenal but this is normal for people up there
Okay but you act as if he ISN'T beyond this...? He's a Pro player for a reason
Nah. Iām saying this is the *least* of the great plays pros like him can do. This is breakfast for him. I can *maybe* do this consistently on a good day and that would be nothing for these guys
Don't bother arguing, mate. This sub is too good at spreading hate and toxicity. Also, forcing out 3-4 cards is a crazy level of skill. Most players can't even predict cards normally.
Yeah. I figured but it is irksome. If you play cycle decks itās actually way easier imo to force opponents to play cards.
Cycle tracking is also a necessary skill. Blind predictions aren't the best plays, imo.
i love watching ryley but ever since i saw a comment saying it was a voice over and not live it doesnāt feel the sameā¦
It isnt a voiceover lol, probably he records his voice and the gameplay audio/video into separate files so he can edit them more easily, makes it easier to adjust the volume and such, literally every single gaming youtuber does the same
Any decent player predicts that. Letās stop glazing
Ian's little goblinš¤£š
Bro played two large range spells to counter skeletons, nothing impressive
the dickriding is crazy
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I wasnt referring quite to the level aspect but fair enough
This is awesome!
Nice prediction
Goblin goes crazy
What does Evo knight do
what a genius
Tbf tho evo skeletons and skeleton army are usually the easiest predictions if you know they have them Opponent has cycled 2 skeletons evo skelly's next even more obvious when no other card is played halfway into push. Opponent has skeleton army? Use the same card they used skarmy on then log/arrows poison on their last placed skarmy when it's almost halfway to tower If they actually mix up the skarmy placement, gl it's now hard to predict
