Hey guys! I love the podcast and listen at least a few times a week, you guys really brighten up my day and keep me updated on my favorite game! I’m a Daredevil main but also mess around with other characters. Right now I’m on the lord grind and trying to get back into diamond. Anyway overall amazing pod, thanks for the tips and tricks to get better at rivals! 100/10 would recommend to others!!!🔥
Hi nick and Josiah magik one trick here love the podcast I just had a question, I just came back from playing rivals after a break, haven’t been playing since gambit came out. and I immediately played my placement matches for ranked and only lost two but it put me in silver 1? I had great games and I’ll put them at the bottom if you don’t feel like reading but why only silver? Love the podcast again keep it up!

I’m rewriting another review (sorry guys) even though I don’t play Rivals much anymore (I’ve been HOOKED on Crimson Desert) I still listen to every episode you guys put out, I love joining for armed and dangerous when I can but unfortunately I have slowly been phasing out of rivals and moving on to other games, maybe my love for the game will flame back up but as of right now it’s steadily dying out. You guys keep me updated through the podcast though and I love listening to the episodes, keep i... more
As a high school student who has a crippling addiction to rivals and has to balance my love for the game and my schoolwork, this podcast is my go to! Anytime i have a time consuming assignment i turn on the pod and get caught up on all the recent rivals news and i love the personal stories and rambling. it makes this feel more like a real conversation other than other podcasts that feel more scripted than personal. Nick and Josiah do a great job and i hope to join in on an armed and dangerous so... more
Hello Nick and Josiah. Love the podcast and the Armed and Dangerous and the community is fun. You should do more community events like codenames, scrabble, and what ever other games are on discord or just some more rivals events. Thank you to my friend TheNoobKing99 for showing me the pod. Now on to the challenge, instead of what I was doing originally with doing the opposite of what Clayton did with his review. I am going to remove a star every time I get to play a character I main. Good luck!
