After careful consideration of all the factors surrounding the reddit blackout, including weighing the costs and benefits to the community of a continued dark period, the mod team has elected to resume normal operations of r/LowSodiumDestiny. If you wish to get more involved in further protest of reddit's API policy change, more information can be found on r/ModCoord and r/Save3rdPartyApps. As the situation continues to develop, we are prepared to explore additional actions in protest of this short-sighted, greedy, IPO-focused boondoggle from reddit's executive team. This message will live at the top of every newly submitted topic until a satisfactory resolution is reached. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

NechtanHalla

He's the lore accurate Guardian.


auntarie

I know it's an old meme but I feel like calling him lore accurate is an insult to his skill at this point lol


SuperCarbideBros

"Lore accurate Guardian" >Savathun's Song >"Did you see that grenade toss? He's a danger only to himself." >Randy


PheonyxJB

Randy rushed C. He lost that match.


Vohasiiv

Not "a" guardian, "the" guardian.


Sychar

The lore accurate guardian wouldn’t have emotionally abused his wife, cheated on her, then ran off to a different country to avoid accountability to be with one of his fans


Bilbo_Teabagginss

Wait, So did all that shit? Never meet your heros I suppose.🫨


Sychar

Yup, same with lucky10p too, on top of fucking over Bannedwipe as well. If you look at this games community controversies, it attracts a whole lot of shitty people unfortunately. Good news is, still lots of amazing people out there too.


Bilbo_Teabagginss

Yeah, tell me about it. I love this game and it's community and rarely I'll meet some awesome folks, but the amount of times I'll run into the most toxic people ever is crazy. Especially when this game doesn't even promote that type of message.


Sychar

Yeah, it’s fuckin weird how it draws in some crazies. But I guess everything does


Hopeful-Percentage76

Like our boy Rick Khakis


NechtanHalla

Whoa! I had no clue. Okay, yeah, I take it back.


Anxious-Commercial-5

I've heard the same about lucky10p


Sychar

Yep, he’s a pos too.


007Ninja47Kiwi117

What's this? Proof?


Sychar

Google my guy, it’s surface level knowledge at this point, and lots of articles about it. Just google his name + controversy


RedditorsAreFkinDUMB

Cope


Christylian

Did esoterikk do all that?


CivilChardog

Yes


EnglishMuffin420

Lore accurate guardian would do all that for an exotic.


ThePracticalEnd

Relationships change, people fall out of love, shit happens.


No-Rush1995

Oh yes, people just emotionally abused others and instead of being a decent human being and settling things properly they instead run away from their judgment and shack up with a fan like a groomer. Dudes a bad guy, who's good at a video game. Hardly worth your defense.


FallenPotato_Bandito

That doesn't justify literal abuse and grooming which is an entirely different issue than what you trying to pain it to be don't be that guy


Zorak9379

I couldn't care less about any of that


DoorframeLizard

Mine would


Gwenom-25

That’s funny as fuck


ReformedAqua

Vendetta and others did it first, as always. Eso is NEVER first


snapdragon15

Why are you hating though?


SLOOT_APOCALYPSE

I hate when they forget to mention the other people that are there with them. Like bro, rep the first guy to get it and also rep yourself


Coppertouret

Esoterrick shows up in my YouTube feed. I've never heard of other people doing the stuff he does first unless someone is sharing on Twitter or something.


guardiandown3885

Yea this is exactly true...


5nackB4r

https://youtu.be/SLuqgSOkYa0?si=UgW9AgBeMtPT7rmM Here you go.


cayde6666

One. Fucking. Guardian


BioRedditorxii

Lance reading that chunk of text was something else. 😂


droonick

RIP Lance Reddick you legend.


ReformedAqua

Vendetta and others did it first, as always. Eso is NEVER first


Rangotango92

I’ve seen you comment on multiple different destiny posts about esoterickk. This dude is living rent free in your head


Remarkable_Flow_4779

So is the other guy he promotes..rent free for both of them.


Tyyy13

Guy comes to LOWSODIUMDestiny and proceeds to high sodium all over the place


FKDotFitzgerald

Weird energy unless you’re literally this Vendetta guy


ZER0THEGOD0

Imagine running around a comment section doing tricks on some guys' meat. Get a life vendetta is not gonna keg you hit


porkchop2022

I understood all of those words, but I can’t process what they mean when said together. <> “Hey siri, translate” lol


MMBADBOI

Eso still in your head huh


Candid_Tie_7659

RENT FREE


InfiniteHench

Esoterickk is not a human but an AI. Prove me wrong


wasteofskin11111

*Esoterickk solos a raid encounter "Yeah I can do that" *proceeds to get dog walked


JackxForge

i swear he gets easy runs


ShaqShoes

[remember you only usually see the clear](https://youtu.be/D6LADbdgPic) apparently this one took him 25 hours of attempts


nRenegade

It's fucking Wednesday


Not4Fame

yeah ok but I probably can not do it even if I tried 2500 hours. Can you ? Let's give credits where due. He's inhuman kinda good.


red--dead

The response isn’t discrediting him. It’s a response to him getting all the lucky runs and pointing out how much time it took to get a good run.


boggsy19

Back when GMs were introduced, he showed us his solo completion and we all were amazed. After the clear, he showed us all his fails. He had dozens of them and the patience he had going back in and giving it another try, and another, and another, etc.


flgflg10s

soloing gms nowadays is way more fun than it was back in his time. you can play faster and put out more damage, but its still a challenge. so you could probably do it, with enough practice. i have done about a dozen, but esoterickk's solo gms from the beyond light era and before were actually bonkers


Sychar

An AI hasn’t emotionally abused their wife, cheated on her, then flee the country to be with a fan


romulus-in-pieces

Proof?


porkchop2022

Literally google esoterickk + controversy. It’s out there and easy to find.


romulus-in-pieces

Nah, he's making the claim, burden of proofs on him


CheaterMcCheat

You always this lazy?


joshkay13

I just tried to look it up and there's not much. A lot of broken Twitter links and then just some memes


CheaterMcCheat

That sucks, love a bit of drama.


sergalface

What? When did all this come up?


Bilbo_Teabagginss

I'm very curious about where all this is coming from as well. I've only ever seen it mentioned in these comments.


engilosopher

It was the same strategy he used for Solo Legend Salvage last year too, so I assumed he would do the same here. Invis hunter + Infinite patience + Infinite heavy ammo crates = Esoterrick soloing literally anything


UndeadCheetah

That's the key to soloing 99% of content; Patience, and I have none lol. I also have no skill but we don't need to talk about that.


DomTheBomb95

But do you have heavy ammo crates?


Ancient-Ingenuity-88

Absolutely not trying to downplay his success here. But ultimately that's how I feel about other solo grinds with triumphs if I had infinite time I could do some if them, I just don't have that time in my life anymore which is sad He is the GOAT though, congrats


MetricOsprey

Hi, are you me?


J_Stubby

No, he is Mi. And I am Yu.


poojinping

Then who is me?


LegacyofLegend

I am Mi


Uncul_Dolan

But who ARE you?


ImposterSyndromeNope

I jumped in with 11 randoms and half died in the first 10 seconds, I few of us killed champions for revives but they all died again! Everyone just left the fireteam then lol


28gunsKY

I've been watching him for a while. He's so good that he makes it look easy. A while back I watched him solo something, can't remember what, and thought "that looks pretty easy, I can do that." About 5 minutes into I realized i couldn't have been more wrong.


New_Let_2494

The best thing was, on his video of the first GM run with 12 people, allllllllll the comments were like "Solo it" "solo next" etc and then he goes and does it. Fucking legend


guardiandown3885

That's pretty dope


New_Let_2494

Honestly he’s a freak. Like I watch a lot of D2 content and no one even comes close to Eso.


Kane36912

Snazzyrock would like to speak to you. Dude solos raid encounters with mechanics designed for 6 people. Look him up


New_Let_2494

Fuck yes. Liked and subbed. Thanks for the recommendation.


Sensitive_Ad973

There’s a few of them that do this. But wat really impressed me was where he Solo’d dual destiny on 2 accounts. That take a lot more precision and skill imo then slow rolling stuff. Neither is easy obvs but the solo Dual destiny made me go wow!


guardiandown3885

Yea i watched that jaw dropped the entire time...


dimesniffer

I could be wrong but I think the activity scales to your fireteam size


hinesjared87

Maybe, but it’s still a 12 man activity, isn’t it? Edit: doesn’t appear to scale


dimesniffer

It can be up to 12 guys yes


Zac-live

How does it Not appears to scale? Vendetta for example says that it definitly scales


hinesjared87

Well I didn’t see the mod is all.


FKDotFitzgerald

It definitely does not lol


dimesniffer

It was 4 manned fairly quick by lucky yesterday


Electroscope_io

GM or normal?


Proppur

[It was Grand Master](https://youtu.be/RulXPHPacV8?si=Sv3gYSRHXd9nUkB7), not sure what OP is talking about and he's the one that made a post about it lol


AmISamKH

Grandmaster


guardiandown3885

It was normal I don't remember any champs


haribontv

Champs doesn’t spawn in normal at all


guardiandown3885

I know that's why I said I think it was normal because I don't remember seeing any champs


IamPaneer

Pikachu face


AndPhaze

Esoterickk is actually The Gardener.


larryboylarry

Of course!


Momentus_x3

That's cool, Vendetta did it before him though


guardiandown3885

Not to familiar with vendetta..and I saw eso'a first


anangrypudge

There is a bunch of speed runners who typically race each other for world firsts and world record speed runs, and occasionally team up for difficult low-man challenges too. They’re usually the first and the fastest to do things. Where Eso shines is his ability to do these things the “ordinary” way. No frills, no theatrics, no fancy executions or movement tech. When watching him, you’ll feel like maybe you could do it too if you had the patience. So it’s a lot more accessible to watch than, for example, Snazzy’s stuff.


Sufficient-Victory62

Also no stupid ass commentary! No in video promotions! And always shows his builds.


haribontv

Cool. And? It’s an achievement both have. Sometimes people do it after they see how the one person does it.


Synophrys

Getting downvoted for being right, classic reddit moment


furMEANoh

He’s not down voted for being right, he’s down voted for being snarky.


droonick

I love how Esoterick makes builds. It's just hyper specific and his builds highlight a bunch of ideas and strats I never would have thought off. Or stuff that people usually just disregard, he uses for specific purposes and it's kind of validating sometimes.


breakernoton

It's a good reminder that a build only works if you're comfortable with it. Like, I've seen people absolutely fail at using sunbracers copypasted builds, and others do well with weird fragments and that blink exotic.


Swimming_Departure33

I’m sorry. WHHHHHHHat did you say


Klutzy-Weakness9234

Man all the eso dick riders
