jk, but it would be interesting to see Twistzz and NAF in the same team again, even tho it will take a while for sure

wintry skiff
#

Twistzz (Star) + NAF (Awp) + Fang (Entry) + Hext (Anchor/support) + Walco (IGL)

#

all canadian team

#

big dropoff after fang tho

sour nexus
#

daps as a coach aswell

imagine NAF and Twistzz learning German because of their girlfriends and then +tabseN +??? +???

Time for g2 to speedrun a grand slam

#

Ez clap apple sauce

wintry skiff
#

i dont even think there's enough s tier event left in csgo

covert palm
#

Fr

#

The major is probs the last one?

wintry skiff
#

rumors are that the switch in the pro scene will be after the player break

covert palm
#

Maybe colonge

#

But I doubt

wintry skiff
#

mid june to mid july

#

g2 wont be in Rio

#

so they need to win Paris - Dallas - The two Blast event

covert palm
#

Yea

wintry skiff
#

if the switch is before cologne

#

unless ESL

covert palm
#

Spring final is the last event if it's after the player break

wintry skiff
#

chooses to keep csgo + cs2

covert palm
#

Maybe they might delay the switch?

#

Because new game so sort out possible teething issues

wintry skiff
#

CS2 major will be in march

covert palm
#

Yeap

wintry skiff
#

better start working cs2 on LAN

#

server crashed in the showmatch

Blast event count in grand slam

sour nexus
#

Since when?

wintry skiff
#

wait

sour nexus
#

Intel is partner of ESL, not Blast nor anyone else

wintry skiff
#

i confused blast leaderboard with grand slam

#

blast premier include esl events

sour nexus
#

Only ESL Events count towards IGS

#

The change during the tournament break... Idk, on one hand not all pros got access to CS2 yet (I assume), and during the break it is supposed to be for the players to have some time off, not to grind CS2 most of the time

#

But on the other hand it would make sense the most. Why should there be another kind of tournament break right after Cologne/EPL18 and just so shortly before the next major?

Hope that @valvesoftware or @CounterStrike has plans to combat cheats early on, and I am not talking about ragehackers; I am also talking about closet cheaters. or cs2 won't be a fun experience for anybody

So many people guessed either Copenhagen or Katowice as the first major...

but yea congrats Denmark i guess

oh my lord am I happy that I kept all my Stockholm foils and holos

#

Now I am really thinking if I should still keep them or sell now

haughty bridge
#

my advice is wait for paris

#

if the paris sticker somehow looked better then you should sell

#

but ppl are gonna sell their investments to buy passes so idk tbh

sour nexus
#

I will keep some like VP and Liquid

haughty bridge
#

crazy how mouz golds are worth more than their kato 14 papers

sour nexus
#

but one like Entropiq I might sell already because they are not in the next major

wintry skiff
#

Tfw csgo market is more stable than some real stocks

sour nexus

#

antwerp capsules are worth 10x more than the sale price btw

#

and its only been a few months after the major

sour nexus
#

I just hope that PGL stickers are not "clear" ones like Kato 14 and Stockholm

haughty bridge
#

if it does just sell them

sour nexus

and buy capsules

#

im gonna sell mine a few weeks before paris

OG CS:GO (@OGcsgo)

We have an unfortunate news to share ahead of our game against @NIPCS later today.

@degsterof got sick earlier in the week and won't be able to take part in today's game. We wish him a quick and fine recovery.

Thanks to @smooyacs who will be standing-in.

I'm really waiting until I open HLTV and the headline is just "FaZe to sell whole roster - report"

marsh ivy
#

pls no faze to tsm..

sour nexus
#

karrigan wouldn't go there again

#

there was a reason why he and the other Danes left TSM to form Astralis

wintry skiff
#

The irony of astralis turning into a shit org tho

sour nexus
#

true tho

wintry skiff
#

Im willing to offer one mcdonald meal a month per player

#

And coach

#

For the faze roster

sour nexus
#

I can cook for them once or twice a month!!

marsh ivy
#

astralis has been shit for ages

#

the cs side was just kinda isolated from it

wintry skiff
#

They dont need the money, they just won 1.2m

sour nexus
#

they only need bootcamp once every few months, a pracc server and thats it

wintry skiff
#

Still cant believe astralis signed hunden

sour nexus
#

the whole Hunden situation is a meme

wintry skiff
#

Dev1ce should leave

sour nexus
#

also ruining the careers of some younger talents like Lucky, Bubzki, Jugi

wintry skiff
#

I’ll never forgive them for ruining bubzki

sour nexus
#

ye same

wintry skiff
#

Only es3tag got a t1 career out of it

#

From the 20-21 signings

sour nexus
#

Lucky and Farlig could recover their form a bit in Tricked and Copenhagen Flames

#

the issue I see with pric3tag is that he can do everything very good, but there isnt anything where he might be the best (except movement but we talking roles)

#

atleast since he was in Astralis there were a lot of role changes even with C9 and NIP

wintry skiff
#

He’s pricier natosaphix

sour nexus
#

iirc when he stood in for FaZe he even mentioned he liked being like an entry again because it was a role he was familiar with from pre-Astralis and being very comfortable with it

sour nexus
#

but seriously I've never seen Nato playing except for being a standin the last few years

#

what he doing

wintry skiff
#

He’s still competing in t3 eu

sour nexus
#

they recently lost their coach

#

lets see how long that roster will survive

#

also kinda funny that Nato was never longer than a year in a team, that being only Nordavind and Sprout for 11 months

every other team only like 3 months or so

how lucky EG must be... not only losing partner spots but also getting a free invite to the RMR

wintry skiff

That core literally got banned for a year/two from faceit and esea for being toxic and racist

#

After elige himself exposed them

lmao

only in NA...

NA needs to develop their collegiate scene

So they can learn not only how to play but also social skills

Didnt they said that already last summer?

But there are a lot of free agents on the market nowadays, and some teams are still looking for an organisation

Bye Kairon

#

But why him though

#

He's one of their only ppl performing lol

sour nexus
#

They played two maps and he got changed out again

#

Like ?

covert palm
#

Idg the decision

#

It doesnt make sense at all

sour nexus
#

He performed better than 3 of their players

covert palm
#

Exactly

#

And the way they worded it

sour nexus
#

The only reason was "he crumbles under pressure"

#

But the stats dont back it up at all

covert palm
#

Sounds like they're switching for performance reason

#

Exactly

sour nexus
#

Like qikert fame and jame where?

covert palm
#

qikert is literally in a different level of bad rn

sour nexus

I cant access the whole stats for the team at the RMR right now, but on the first sight they pwrformed worse overall

Yea

Qikert has a 0.71

#

Kairon

Is 1.06

I mean qikert is playing all the shit roles now, but still?

He is usually pretty good in those positions

Astralis Spirit Ence 0-2 bracket

sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

didnt even play on EG Black before the call -> straight up to main

sour nexus
#

same thing with junior back then

wintry skiff
#

decent T2 events -> wym cash cups are goated

wintry skiff
#

was rough af

#

we had to rely on fl0m mythic cups

#

to see na t2 teams play

#

thats how bad it was

sour nexus
#

time for the CCTs and BetBooms and whatever they are called to do something in NA aswell

#

like we have more and more TOs over here in europe T2 landscape but nothing for NA

wintry skiff
#

we have CCT in na

#

but somehow

#

they manage to conflict with ESEA leagues schedule

#

nouns trying their best

sour nexus
#

oh, didnt realize they did NA stuff

wintry skiff
#

esea cash cup NA circuit

#

8 tournaments with 5K cash prize

#

and points leading to a 60k finals

#

thats basically the only NA tier 2 circuit

#

Fragadelphia is also a TO we might lose

#

since they (nerdstreet) lost some crypto sponsors

#

at this point

#

i dont even want orgs to join na

#

i want TOs

#

since there is no point entering a scene without tournaments

sour nexus
#

yea the circuit is kinda dead over there

#

also a problem was that some Orgs dumped a shit ton of money into NA CS without realising what the concequences are

wintry skiff
#

even a monthly 5k-10k tournament in NA would "greatly" help the scene

#

need to win the lottery to save na cs

sour nexus
#

NA just having too many issues atm

#

would take a lot to fix them tbh

wintry skiff
#

would start by having "life coaches"

sour nexus
#

also wasnt there a report today or yesterday about EG losing some important sponsors since the end of last year?

wintry skiff
#

yeah

sour nexus
#

that could mean another huge L for NA CS

wintry skiff
#

would explain dropping EG white

sour nexus
#

if it really goes that far as happened with like a 100Thieves or CLG

wintry skiff
#

i mean

#

EG Black core rn could farm na t2 and stay together

#

the main team only plays EU to get shit on

sour nexus
#

TSM should sign EG Black

wintry skiff
#

would lose nothing

#

if EG dies

sour nexus
#

and getting kassad as their manager

wintry skiff
#

muenster would be free to go back to Party Astronauts
Madcow could go to nouns and help semphis
Shakezullah could un retire and mentor more players (like grim, floppy, osee, junior, viz)

#

we need igls like Shake to comeback

wintry skiff
#

i approve

sour nexus
#

Shake retired??

wintry skiff
#

to be a coach

#

for eg

sour nexus
#

what the heck did I miss all the time

wintry skiff
#

bnb disbanded almost 8 months ago

sour nexus
#

is he just assistant coach over at EG ?

wintry skiff
#

yeah

#

i need him to comeback

#

jonji is also taking a break rn

sour nexus
#

the latest news I find on him on HLTV is from september where they didnt qualify for IEM Rio RMR

#

yea jonji you posted here a few days ago iirc

wintry skiff
#

momo too

#

its joever for me

#

hopefully chop and cxzi will help Party Astronauts

#

cxzi and viz used to play together with shake

#

chop used to be on the EG Black core (wiz-hext-walco)

#

shame that yur

#

will not stay together

#

but good news for na cs

#

nouns will prolly be funded for the rest of the year

sour nexus
#

hoping that Nouns keep that roster

wintry skiff
#

im not gonna lie

#

theyre like one or two roster moves from being NA t1

#

the marke pickup

#

was huge

sour nexus
#

just checking EG's liquipedia, how many coaches do they have ????????

wintry skiff
#

iirc the assistant coaches work one the 3 2 teams

sour nexus
#

Vorborg, maLeK, Shake and Hepa

wintry skiff
#

they got money to burn

#

seattle kinda cold

sour nexus
#

even tho Hepa moved from Analyst to being a Strategic coach together with maLek

wintry skiff
sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

if nouns

  • swisher +reck/jitter
    -cj -carson
#

its over for na t2

sour nexus
#

Semphis being their coach looks hella promising

wintry skiff
#
  1. adding swisher would bring even more xp and firepower
  2. i dont cj and carson
sour nexus
#

who their awper?

wintry skiff
#

its cynic

#

but its more because they need one

#

then he's an awper

sour nexus
#

was he good rifler before?

wintry skiff
#

he was great at rifling under shake

sour nexus
#

if so get junior out of the EG camp

#

tbf a lot of AWPers nowadays were riflers before and picked up AWP cuz they needed to

#

syrson, broky, mantuu

#

iirc hades aswell

wintry skiff
#

i miss that lineup

#

cooper cynic shake bwills viz

sour nexus
#

looking good actually

wintry skiff
#

cxzi

#

would be top 10 na (current)

#

if he didnt fumble the bag

sour nexus
#

imagine if we had Extra Salt nowadays

image.png
wintry skiff
#

floppy fang marke jt grim

#

make fang the awper

#

he can awp

sour nexus
#

oSee having those stats tho

wintry skiff
#

yeah

sour nexus
#

Liquid -oSee +smooya

#

jk pls dont

wintry skiff
#

after leaving c9

#

he got hungry

sour nexus
#

oh wait

#

Liquid +woxic

wintry skiff
#

that run till funspark

#

i really thought Fang would be top 5 na

#

he is still top 10

sour nexus
#

Fang was one of the names I was excited the most from NA

wintry skiff
#

at least in the rmr

#

he showed that he still got it

#

jt above 2 players

sour nexus
#

tbf in CoL its difficult for Fang to be the best in the team if you have both floppy and Grim

wintry skiff
#

actually floppy talked about taking more "shit spots"

#

for grim and fang

#

recently

#

iirc

sour nexus
#

floppy is a god tho

wintry skiff
sour nexus
#

he can be the NAF of USA one day with playing those shit spots to perfection

wintry skiff
#

JT just needs to work on ct side

#

tactics

sour nexus
#

but I'm curious what is missing for Liquid to be title contenders. like if both Yekindar and Elige are not performing, they can't win at all

sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

osee needs to be more confident

#

or at least

#

set him up

#

more

#

because nearly all the plays are dedicated to yekindar and elige

#

from memory

sour nexus
#

yea true tho

#

if they had an AWPer like woxic, it would be interesting how it would play out

wintry skiff
#

would start 3v5

#

yekindar dies because woxic doesnt setup him up

#

and woxic dies because he would aggro without support

sour nexus
#

then nevermind my idea

#

hoping he finds another good team one day

wintry skiff
#

they just need to adjust the amount of plays that osee gets

sour nexus
#

if oSee gets more plays, he might get his confidence back

#

but its like a circle. if he doesnt perform, he gets less plays. less plays equals no confidence, no confidence equals no performance

#

I need to watch a few liquid games again to make myself an opinion about them now, the last time I watched them was Katowice

wintry skiff
#

flash diff

#

es funspark and liquid cologne

#

like almost everyone in ES

sour nexus
#

EliGe and Yekindar no time to flash

wintry skiff
#

has more flashes success than osee in cologne

sour nexus
#

I don't really know the exact playstyle of EliGe, but it feels like Liquid has too many aggro players

wintry skiff
#

TL and COL should share their tside and cside stratbooks

sour nexus
#

like if EliGe and Yekindar slow it down a little bit to give more freedom to oSee and NAF, it might be an improvement

wintry skiff
#

save autimatic

sour nexus
#

NAF sometimes being a bit too passive, oSee we just talked about getting no plays

#

autimatic... which team could be put him? or with which players

wintry skiff
#

i mean naf has to be passive

#

to balance the team

sour nexus
#

but if you compare NAF to other players who play his roles and positions, he is a bit too passive

wintry skiff
#

+autimatic for nouns

#

-cj or -carson

sour nexus
#

but he must be that passive because they got EliGe Yekindar and nitr0

wintry skiff
#

can even go back to awp

sour nexus
#

autimatic awp

#

he is insane rifle, why he wanna awp

wintry skiff
#

it wasnt that bad

sour nexus
#

Gen.G was interesting

#

Especially with BnTeT joining them

sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

we'll see in IEM Dallas

#

nouns qualified for it

sour nexus
#

So basically the T2 NA teams we are rooting for are Party Astronauts, Nouns and the Nifty one?

wintry skiff
#

intrigued by how cynic will perform

#

vs actual awpers

wintry skiff
sour nexus
#

Everything that isnt CoL or Liquid

wintry skiff
#

we talking ESL Challenger league level or most promising team

sour nexus
#

I dont care, just neither CoL nor Liquid

#

Because most promising team should reach ESL Challenger league

wintry skiff
#

Nouns - Party Astronauts - Detonate (the team that got screwed for and EG got their spot) - Strife - Eg Black - Take Flyte (Nifty) - Limitless

sour nexus
#

I forgot about Strife and Detonate

wintry skiff
#

Strife got Clasia and D4rty from yur

sour nexus
#

Limitless i forgot who that was

wintry skiff
#

Limitless are the very young roster

#

with lots of potential

sour nexus
#

I read Makzwell and thought of that spanish player first

wintry skiff
#

ignore the red

#

but he showed in CCT that he could play

sour nexus
#

I mean having a high rating on a big amount of maps, looking good actually

#

Just a bit inconsistent

wintry skiff
sour nexus
#

0.91 after 6 maps is a bit worrying but i dont know who they played and how it went

wintry skiff
#

but they got the "its not the awper whos the main carry" problem

sour nexus
#

wdym

wintry skiff
#

none of them are the awpers

sour nexus
#

oh

#

It's my time to shine then

wintry skiff
#

na cant produce awps

sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

i also cant awp so it must be related

sour nexus
#

my friends call me german brokita

#

so i must be good then

wintry skiff
#

i think the meta

sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

will be to import awpers

#

and export riflers

sour nexus
#

we got too many awpers man

#

mantuu smooya woxic syrsoN Nato

#

And the list goes on

#

Cerq

#

All of them were insane awpers at times

#

maybe except for Nato, but standin buff is a thing

wintry skiff
#

just get nato

#

but dont say its perm

sour nexus
#

reminds me of k0nfig to NIP

#

Except they confirmed its perm long time

#

if they just said he is there temporarily (definitly not but who needs to know), easy standin buff for them

wintry skiff
sour nexus
#

lmao

#

Also es3tag is out there aswell, he can AWP too

wintry skiff
#

es3tag awping

#

brings bad c9 memories

sour nexus
#

is poizen still alive since fnatic?

sour nexus
wintry skiff
#

still free agent

#

fnatic got nicoodoz

sour nexus
#

free agent list needs to be updated, both Gratisfaction and jks are in a team now

wintry skiff
#

from cphflames

sour nexus
#

ye i know but never heard anything from poizon since then

#

not even t2 hungarian team

wintry skiff
#

isnt he bulgarian?

sour nexus
#

oh frick I messed up the flag

#

Oh wait im stupid

#

I meant bulgarian all the time, teams like 500, Budapest Five n stuff

wintry skiff
#

can they even afford him?

sour nexus
#

wait nevermind I messed that up again

#

whatever, and no probably not

wintry skiff
#

the move would be to go to a t2 team

#

but would a t2 team rather take him or a promising young awper

#

should comeback to NA

#

we need awpers

sour nexus
#

it depends

#

man why are we missing so many IGLs aswell

wintry skiff
#

should go to a team like endpoint

#

would sell him to a bigger team

#

if he does good

sour nexus
#

problem with poizon was his hand injury

#

he did the olof back in CoL

#

and who wants a player like that

wintry skiff
#

2020 col

#

ruined by stuff outside the server

sour nexus
#

it looked promising

wintry skiff
#

hope obo got the help he needs

sour nexus
#

just wanted to ask something but that is too literal in that case

#

but hoping he got the help too

wintry skiff
#

he's still 19

#

still got time to comeback if he wants too

sour nexus
#

Was jks already in that lineup? Kinda forgot who was there

#

konfig blamef obo rush poizon?

wintry skiff
#

yeah

sour nexus
#

its so weird having blameF both aa the IGL and kind of a lurker

wintry skiff
#

blamef rush and konfig being the gym bros

sour nexus
#

It looked so funny, rush konfig blamef and then you got obo

#

3 gym beasts and then a baby

#

the best CoL lineup was with coldzera tho, where they did not lose once 16-0 but twice within a short time, was it even in the same event?

wintry skiff
#

cold leaving mibr for faze

#

and niko just leaving

sour nexus
#

that was a big L for cold, probably even career-destroying move

#

FaZe was in shambles after Katowice 2018

wintry skiff
#

imagine having karrigan and not letting him be igl

sour nexus
#

kicking karrigan, olof being on-off all the time, can't find any IGL until 2021

wintry skiff
#

in the end it got them broky-twistzz

sour nexus
#

Loosing those two events ruined everything for the team

sour nexus
#

then -coldzera and waiting for +ropz

#

karrigan had a blueprint, he got everything he wanted

wintry skiff
#

except a full batman costume

sour nexus
#

Wait for major grand final

wintry skiff
#

if only TL chose twistzz over stew

sour nexus
#

Twistzz wanted to Main AWP for Liquid back when nitr0 left

wintry skiff
#

let them him cook

sour nexus
#

imagine Twistzz Main AWP, Stew IGL, EliGe and Grim being their star players, and NAF being NAF

#

It could've had potential

#

but they had other issues aswell

wintry skiff
#

NAF + Elige + Grim + Twistzz + vanity

#

vanity was the chaos igl

#

he was available

sour nexus
#

Twistzz being 2nd IGL couldve helped vanity aswell with the experience

#

But idk if Twistzz 2nd IGLing came because of karrigan or from himself

wintry skiff
#

chaos roster (at least the young guns) leaving the scene

#

hurted na so bad

sour nexus
#

Yea that was really bad

#

Xeppaa and floppy to C9 was like the last hope when the others left for Valulrant

wintry skiff
#

xeppaa and leaf were on par with grim

sour nexus
#

leaf crisp clean lock

wintry skiff

kinda lucky floppy didnt valorant

so happy that he stayed

#

didnt floppy mention one day he can speak german? Why didnt he join BIG when -Xantares happened ChoerryNervous

#

its ok

#

if jackz could join t1 at 27

#

why not me

#

still got years before 27

sour nexus
#

I kinda want -dupreeh +Jackz

#

I know EPL was just a short stint

wintry skiff
#

dupreeh back to astralis?

sour nexus

But Jackz is a better fit for Vitality

#

naah I want dupreeh and es3tag back in a team together

if i were the gm of EG csgo

  • release autimatic -> he deserves better
  • make EG Black the main roster but instead of only going to t1 events -> make them bootcamp in EU for t2/t3 events and scrims weeks before the big events
  • EG Black 2.0 -> Cyrix (AWP)(Snake Den) + Lake (IGL)(Snake Den) + Jason (1Jin) + Sacrifice (1Jin) + Pol0 (FA) (19.6yrs old in avr)

both major winners from last year not making it to the last csgo major would be wild

I didnt realize the first time nafany planted the bomb it didnt finish

deep plank
#

I can’t believe c9 choked the map this badly

sour nexus
#

they playing slower than VP or old NaVi right now

#

FaZe slowly building up their momentum and confidence is fatal for C9

deep plank
#

it’s early to say but I think c9 might be done for the whole series, no confidence and they have a tendency to not perform in high-stakes

marsh ivy
#

if they lose this map then they'll be mental boomed for sure

deep plank

was looking really good when shiro and axile were doing hot

marsh ivy

its their pick

not only that but both buster and especially Hobbit not really performing

karrigan not so humble anymore
