ye, jackz is playing instead for Vitality
Zywoo gonna have to carry a lot harder then 
and communication shouldnt be a problem that much either, jackz played in an international G2 for over 2 years
But im not sure if jackz has the same level of firepower as dupreeh
I think regarding fire power they are on par actually, but jackz been much more inconsistent with it
Nice
also I'm still laughing at "1. Rooster picked Nuke" against FaZe
like did they forget FaZe is one of the best Nuke teams?
cs is 50% confidence
ropz 

ropz did the sunny lmao
even with 100% confidence, they never played against top opposition (atleast to my knowledge), picking FaZe's best map against them is just...
there could be a chance, yea
Nuke really be their best map then
karrigan really do be playing his "map point lets rush harder" strats again
i dont like twistzz coloring his hair for pro league. last time he did it, they bombed out

oh ok
whats going on with NIP
on the other hand (or rather stream), how tf did broky survive so long???
og almost did a TL
sounds interesting. If the stuff is true that I read, that does also mean Valve bought the rights for Tuscan and thus it will be coming back in the active duty map pool in the near future
I am so excited to compete again
Annoucement pending..⏳
1003
I mean tbf dupreeh was the 2nd AWPer before (with Magisk iirc), but still 
me rn

rly a 1:1 swap
entry fraggers awpin 
tbf you dont usually entry frag on CT unless ur name is Yekindar
Also what is NIP doing, imma need to watch the Faze vs Nip game and probably Grayhound vs NIP, like why are they not putting up rounds at all with that insane lineup
They have rez and konfig, arguably the two most inconsistent riflers in t1
Brollan hasnt been the same since the aug nerf
ytb 🎉
Ropz getting an eye infection, even nature doesn't want them to win the IGS 
Not only last time 
But seriously how does he do that everytime with a stand in... cromen and Xizt back in 2018, in mouz with their coach and NatoSaphix, and recently with jks and es3tag...
ytb cocks out
nvm rooster shit the bed


bruh moment
They even dominated Anubis before. Guess they became too cocky (no pun intended) and threw their lead away
Twistzz casting
if he ever retires in like 15 years or so, he definitly needs to be a talent, doesnt matter if analyst or caster
Sadokist isnt with ESL anymore tho
this nip roster is a mess
absolutely
or OG

OG literally the european EG
only at Blast tho
more than once

back in 2019 we had Blastralis, now we have OG with Blast
yea that's true
Brollan 2nd IGL 
I mean konfig and Brollan are sharing 2nd igl
from what REZ just said
but with REZ being more of a lurker now it would make sense for him being the 2nd igl
hopefully they resolve their issues before the rmr
hope so too
cs is always better when there are multiple good teams
absolutely
it might take some more time because I heard in a recent interview, hampus was more than just the IGL and Entry before, he was somewhat of a glue player in there
and I don't see any of the players in the team as one
hoping they win their Match tomorrow so we can see them in the playoffs
i would say post 2020 astralis is the EU EG
its ok
poor bubzkji getting his career destroyed
tom cruise is back
just get Skadaddy back and clone him

okay actually I dont know anything about NA players, was he a great awper?
lemme rephrase, who are like the top 5 best NA awpers of all time?
- Ska
- Osee
- Nifty
- Autimatic (GenG)
- what the fuck are we doing (wardell?/jdm/nitr0/naf (2nd)/twistzz(2nd))
you could swap auti and nifty
I remember tim throwing away his insane rifle for awping...
i mean
also junior where 👀
or we talking T1 only
T1
oh okay
outside of that one Liquid vs Triumph series
on one hand, I'm happy that Twistzz is in EU now. on the other hand, I wish we could've seen Twistzz being the main awp for liquid as he has suggested back then after nitr0 left
ive never seen him put him decent numbers
no but seriously, he looks mechanically skilled enough and he puts his time into the game that I think he could be a top (NA) awper
junior?
ye
he can come home
he won a major
ig we'll wait til he wins his second grand slam
would cement him as the greatest NA player
naah he will stay with Robin and broky until they are 30
I remember twistzz even talking about him or ropz being an IGL one day when karrigan retires
get an NA entry and a new support player and they could literally make an NA team
that's true
also doesn't NAF play most CT spots that karrigan plays? So it should be a good fit actually
that lineup would actually be interesting
hopefully ropz/broky can make elige chill a bit
but I don't think the personalities would mash together that great
elige looks stressed all the time
that's true
like FaZe is a team full of crackheads outside the game, NAF being the most chilled person on this planet
NAF wouldnt mind
for FaZe thats both karrigan and Twistzz actually
he's chilling
that's true, he would be smiling and chilling
This is the story of a Liquid Legend.
One of the most decorated & accomplished players in NA CS history, NAF FLY has been taking names & winning trophies for years against the toughest opponents in the world.
But until now, no one had ever heard the behind the scenes story of his mindset and how he approached the game. Coinbase asked us to...

only watched the end of nip og
ye same, but rewatching the VOD right now because it's interesting to see what players have to say
absolutely
"sometimes i have nothing to say because i dont know what they are doing" - twistzz

ye
it was DM for OT
ye
[THREAD] 🧵

Episode analytics
episode not on youtube
c'mon
even Niko episode got to youtube
oh okay its still uploading to youtube
What a nice long breakfast tomorrow then
yo yo yo wait a minute
wanting to be an IGL for an international team 
no.
we need experienced players to show how cs is meant to be played

hope EG released shakezullah (ok not really hope - he,s getting the bag after years of no salaries)
experienced igls are badly needed rn
EG won 61 rounds, Rooster won 70 rounds
yea I hope NA gets them as soon as possible
like overall there is a huge IGL drought everywhere, and getting an experienced one is even worse
I can only name 3 NA "igl"s and 1 real one on top of my head and that's it

maybe 2 IGLs but I dont know if adreN was an IGL back then
he was
only thinking about that because he was coaching Liquid for like a gazillion years
oh wait actually forgot to count both stanislaw and daps, but latter one is a decent coach atm
2022 daps project
failed
if it had succeeded
they would beat EG
as the 3rd best na roster
definitly
im not even talking about ethan/naf
but I also remember NAF saying that daps is a great IGL regarding building a team and the fundamentals, but afterwards the experience is lacking with the mid round calls and stuff
(that's why stanislaw was taking his place everywhere)
bwills + minus
were easily top 5 na prospects
at the time
Minus - Free Agent for Val and CS
Swisher - on ATK (easily their best player)
Daps - you know
Bwills - on Nouns (Decent NA tier 2 team - Made the RMR)
Koosta - ???
minus was supposed to be the next great na awper

he was elige,s bold prediction
after all
i have high hopes
for this roster
i want them to stay together
no roster changes
unless something huge happens
would it make sense to get an experience NA coach as an assistant coach?
because that should in theory be a bit more easier than getting an experienced IGL
get adreN, valens, Elmapuddy and so on back
we need more EU coaches/players in here
TL got better with yekindar
COL got better with Hallzerk


that's true
since 2017 he is competing for NA
iirc they already tried to get Cerq to count as a NA player, but sadly it only counts the country you are born in
would be kinda funny tho seeing m0nesy with a serbian flag now 
i dont want to be that guy, but malek had niko/hunter as star riflers and nexa as igl
and kennyS as star awper back then aswell^^
EG didnt and still doesnt have the firepower and igl to match
the only players performing there are the two most experienced on the lineup, and even then they are still not at the same level they had before
and I dont think they will reach it ever again unless a miracle happens like getting a great IGL
they all play deathmatch together, one round AK only, other round AWP only. The best players get selected, they have a meeting regarding roles and stuff
and then they get excorted to the EU
sounds like a good idea 
and on the way they can pick up a leftover player without a team now that nealan is the only non-NA player in the whole EG squad
nevermind I forgot about Momo in EG White
momo goated
their EG White is better than their main
if EG white gets disbanded
i hope viz and momo stick together
goated young duo
Imma take a look into that duo
import momo and viz to europe
didnt TSM wanted to build an international team
idk what momo and viz roles are tho
I dont even remember
Its been that long
lurker / star rifler / 2nd entry
since i know jonji is the entry / pwn is the awp / ben is the igl
ropz 

oh my that round was disgusting
OH MY
is this how liquid fans feel like during their games?

im about to close the stream
anyways FaZe can recover, Nuke is their map and Inferno should be theirs aswell right?

faze on inferno
new zonic's law dropped
where will regali go tho
need more tier 1-2 events in NA
its habbening?
I don't think regali will downgrade to NA CS 
nafany on HTLV confirmed right now
and he just said that the Nuke pick against FaZe at the major was actually planned and not "by accident" 
hext subbing for stan
walco back to igl ig
eg academy better win
junior + hext + jeorge
should be enough firepower
"I would improve every single NA team, 100%"

not wrong
me again
I just played Faceit on it, can confirm
it is, yes

NAVI and Astralis loosing kinda expected that it is possible
but Liquid only getting 3 rounds on their own map pick?
m0e awping IGL?
if m0e to liquid, liquid will be #1 for the next 365 days, win two majors and another IGS

current s2 copium is next week. office was added to the game mar23, @csgo is baiting with the office gifs and the office first aired mar24
more hopium, CS twitter account updated banner
Where "Counter-Strike." tho 
Also we might get to see Liquid vs Astralis again in EPL if the stars align
got bored
acor > syrson
torszi underrated ash
smooya i feel there's a bit of bias towards him as a community figure
deko / annihilation could be up there - deko is honestly raw talent but apparently his character's awful
The moment, when you dream once in about 2months and you dream about source 2 lol

just trying to make my own tier list with that, very difficult because you have like the elite awpers nowadays, the ones that dropped off badly and the rest is just floating in between somewhere that I can't judge 
also most of them I just don't see their games that often to judge their awping tbf
Sources (CSGO): Refrezh 🇩🇰 has reached verbal agreement with Evil Geniuses 🇺🇸.
He is set to replace HexT 🇨🇦 in the main roster of the organization.
All details⬇️
https://t.co/LChMyyUzsR
lets see how long it would take for him to bench himself in EG if we talk about management of the team
poor device
did Twistzz just shoot the sloth 
It's interesting that they are allowed to fool around during a technical pause. Usually you can only sit there, don't speak at all and need to wait until the issue is resolved. Did ESL change something in their rulebook, is that just for the group stage?
wasnt it at hjalf time?
I mean yea but it got longer and longer because of tech pause
could be. yea

refrezh going to NA just to haunt TL again

surely after missing EPL playoffs
they will consider a roster change
*to be done after the major
An extraordinary general meeting will take place today for the shareholders of @heroicgg to try and raise more money. NOK (Norwegian krone) 10 million is needed before the summer and NOK 80 million until the end of 2025 to "sustain its business". https://t.co/HbARXMCZv4
moistcr1tikal: "I definitely want to get into CS:GO for sure"
Bad News Eagles still dont have an org iirc
i would honestly
want a new TO then an org
in NA
except blast qualifiers / esl qualifiers / esea cash cups
pretty much empty
might have to wait for the recession to be over for that
doesnt have to be huge
even a 1k/2k/5k event run monthly
could be "huge"
for na t2
Heroic has reportedly told investors that it needs $938,420 USD before the summer of 2023 in order to continue operations.
220
I think they did but that might’ve been before all the FTX stuff happened
didn’t the ftx stuff crash tsm stock or something
tsm isnt public
its faze you would have heard about in regards to esports stock tanking
Tsm already posted manager for cs application thingy
Will prolly get a roster post paris major
wouldnt be surprised if they drop out of valorant and go back to cs
since they wont win ascension this year
Party Astronauts back in the business, it would be hilariously funny if they would qualify for the next major RMR but EG wouldnt (if they continue with the core of that lineup)
LETS GOOO
Momo and viz
Will dominate na t2 together
Losing Muenster tho

But hey he getting the bag
But the reasoning seemed a bit weird
Something along the lines of "the player didnt develop enough to get promoted to the main team" just doesnt fit for anyone in that lineup
Stan should be coaching for party astronauts
I'd rather say they want to stick together instead of getting promoted into a rollercoaster ride of a lineup that changed every 3 months it feels like
(Maybe to eventually replace daps on tl like the prophecy says he will)
naah daps won't get booted, Liquid is solid rn
Pwn and Ben are old
He can be assistant coach tho 
yea okay thats a point
Viz and momo should have been given a chance tho
If the roster decides to stick together, I want them to beat EG's asses in the next major cycle
Ayo
Moist to pick up ex eg white
They go to beat eg in major qualifiers
And we get a charlie vid dunking on eg
Win win for everybody
Iirc they almost made it to the rio major
-djay +momo will make them qualify in the rmr
good start

EG.B was able to win against timbermen, but the Main team couldnt? 
new CS Twitter banner, more hopium
personally, not a fan of how it looks but hopefully this means something
that goes hard

Tick rate no longer matters for moving, shooting, or throwing.
Sub-tick updates are the heart of Counter-Strike 2. Previously, the server only evaluated the world in discrete time intervals (called ticks). Thanks to Counter-Strike 2’s sub-tick update architecture, servers know the exact instant that motion starts, a shot is fired, or a ‘nade i...

Holy the moly looks cool
Haven't checked my steam yet 
Sheesh smoke cam in private matchs and training

"Counter Strike dead game"
The Paris Major will be the final CS:GO Major.
The following Major will be in March 2024 and the first in Counter-Strike 2.
goodnight sweet prince
but it makes sense to make the next major in the next year, that should be enough time for all the teams to prepare on CS2
valve better up the prize pool
like the stockholm one
actually make the major 2m$
- community money like in dota
I'm curious about the change that the major will happen in March
so basically Katowice and right after that RMR + Major?
might be katowice = major
...or make Katowice a major again just like 2019, would fit with the schedule
since kato is in feb and rmr usually take a month
Kato 2019 was played until 3rd of March
so its possible we might see a Kato major
even the years before Katowice always been in early March
rumors are that players and tos will make the switch after this summer player break
would make sense
and because the player tournament break was moved a month earlier (thanks CSPPA, still makes no sense), Cologne should be the first event in the next season then?
nevermind, Blast Fall Groups happens before Cologne
luckily I am going to Cologne, it will be so interesting to see live
would be nice getting a new operation before the change
well to be fair

elige for being dame loyal
rip cl_righthand 0
jump throws are also consistent now
and now that they remove cl_righthand, I have space for two new keybinds. thanks volvo
but I will miss it switching cl_righthand depending on what will be blocked by the weapon
NA can't have another one until CS2
this one should go to NiKo
best end for this season would be FaZe getting the last CS:GO IGS here in Pro League, and NiKo finally winning the (last) major
i mean faze still has some opportunities but now looks like the best one
just hoping the boys not chilling too much in CS2
the first cs2 major is just gonna be a huge exploit showcase 
nah
Guardian comes out of nowhere
and wins it

ropz busy making math formulas to find lineups
Gonna be some crazy ass lineups now with no sky box too
exactly who I was thinking of when I saw this tweet: https://twitter.com/hltvorg/status/1639395856049659906?s=46&t=4baVktL2rHVP0REy2chJJw

ill still say csgo even if cs2 is released tbh
I've always said CS so I keep saying CS
Apex saying that his favorite lineup was the RPK - Misutaa - Shox - Zywoo (well the one where he had the most fun at least)
shox and kenny (maybe ex6tenz - rpk) should be carrying the trophy
to the stage
NaHH kqly for sure
anyone has an invite for limited test?
doesnt work like that

i like what looks like the smokes being colored according to t/ct
Lmao
This match is pretty good thou
Except the server gone lmao xdd
sheesh what a clutch
what is this emote
Wth HAHAH
They did promise to go bald if they won the major correct
But they all didn't smh
i should be added
...how...?
yes
Insane
Faze players + coach just made 1.2m$
(maybe jks too? since he won katowice in 2022)
Fr
prolly split with rain
Maybe? Or maybe it's like if they decide to split with him too
iirc
b1t and flamie split the money (by tournament participation ofc)
Oo
Twistz a happy man tonight
Another thing to remember is that FaZe's opening event of this #IntelGrandSlam run was #IEM Katowice, won with the help of jks.
The Australian will NOT be eligible for IGS prize money because he competed in an IGS-eligible event for another team.
NAF as the 2nd man in or Twistzz being the 2nd man in and NAF doing Twistzz' joker role?
NAF can do anything
i only know his roles since Twistzz left the team and that was being more of a lurker/anchor
idk if he did something else before

but I don't think neither of them (karrigan nor rain) will retire now, especially when CS2 is already around the corner
karrigan is definitly hungry to get a few titles in that game aswell
i dont remember if rain is a dad
multiple stickers money + major + grand slam + all the other events money + salary
his kid already set for life
true
also kinda funny to see that NAF was there all the time
NAF and Twistzz always sticking together some way or another

they are surely cooking something 
















me rn
