Counter-Strike

[waxen grail]

hooxi also did human flashbang

[sour nexus]

Unless you are VP

[waxen grail]

vp is no one go kill

[sour nexus]

Then its go wait and get paid by minute

[waxen grail]

electronic ruined this team

mir wasn’t good but

[sour nexus]

their playstyle didnt really work anymore

[waxen grail]

surely +perfecto would’ve been better

[sour nexus]

yes they win a few games here and there

[waxen grail]

and doesn’t neuter fame

[covert palm]

Vp is just

[sour nexus]

But name me all their tournament wins since fluke major that they've won without looking hltv

[covert palm]

No Style

As much as jame was boring

[waxen grail]

oh like nothing

[covert palm]

Af

[waxen grail]

LOL

[sour nexus]

heck name me ANY tournament where they reached top 4

[covert palm]

It was a style

[covert palm]

I think they had 1 more

[wintry skiff]

didnt they win that one weird tournament in brazil

with like 4-6 teams

[sour nexus]

ESL Challenger or something like that?

Like they only win those

[waxen grail]

yk what hurt them a lot

[sour nexus]

But they shouldnt even play them in the first place if they were good!

[waxen grail]

overpass not being there

that sounds dumb but

[sour nexus]

oh yes

[wintry skiff]

nvm

[waxen grail]

they could win overpass with norbert dropping 30

[wintry skiff]

it was in argentina

[sour nexus]

They were the best overpass team in CS2

[covert palm]

Actl

Why did they remove overpass

Shouldve been

Vertigo gone

Shit map

[sour nexus]

because Valve is brainded

[wintry skiff]

i like vertigo

[waxen grail]

somehow norbert is vp’s best player

[covert palm]

Give me back overpass

[wintry skiff]

i like overpass too

[waxen grail]

i never would’ve believed it

[sour nexus]

It sounds so hilarious

[wintry skiff]

i say remove dust again

[sour nexus]

also in that one current ESL skit, peak norbert

[covert palm]

Remove

[sour nexus]

Its so boring to watch

Whole cologne crowd was boo'ing when D2 got picked

[waxen grail]

this team has electronic, jame fame and fl1t

[covert palm]

Dust yeah

[waxen grail]

and norbert is the best player

[wintry skiff]

every round be like : 10 flashes long

in the first 10 seconds

[waxen grail]

bro where’s cache

bring it back

[covert palm]

Dust is 90%

Long simulator

[sour nexus]

Today the match on D2 was atleast a bit interesting

[covert palm]

And 10% solo B good luck

[sour nexus]

I felt like there were a lot of action in tunnels

[waxen grail]

there were

and it helps when dust is like that

[sour nexus]

long only if malbs decided to lurk out

and then MOUZ starting 4 peeps on long because they dont know how to deal with malbs

[waxen grail]

ok so

[wintry skiff]

malbs to COL

[waxen grail]

who actually wins the major

[wintry skiff]

[wintry skiff]

m80

[sour nexus]

no one tbh

[covert palm]

Everyone loses

[wintry skiff]

NA and Germany's team will save us all

[waxen grail]

like as depressed as spirit look

they could win

or just navi win

[covert palm]

If navi wins

Thorins twt will never shut up

About how Navi fluked it again

[sour nexus]

NaVi still struggling with showing us they didnt fluke.
Spirit is burning atm, no chance.
Vitality kinda inconsistent at the moment.
G2 wtf is IGL and coach
MOUZ still struggling with pressure
FaZe yeeting their structure away

like no team is at the top at the moment

[waxen grail]

nah nah

he won’t

[sour nexus]

I kinda like it, but man what to do with pickems

[waxen grail]

his view on navi is diff now

it’s basically just “it’s not the same team as the fluke, they’ve actually progressed a lot as a team and are competent0

[wintry skiff]

Ultimate

is the chosen one

that will bring NA and Poland their first major in 15 years

[covert palm]

Except for JL

[waxen grail]

yk what this means

furia win the major

[sour nexus]

The only thing I want at the major is Liquid in playoffs

[wintry skiff]

https://tenor.com/view/stop-the-cap-cap-laugh-video-reaction-youtuber-gif-18293251

[waxen grail]

fallen wins his 3rd

[covert palm]

Ukw

Vp wins the major

Ez

[sour nexus]

naah

[waxen grail]

being so fr

[wintry skiff]

i say we boycott VP

i cannot watch them

[waxen grail]

mongolz have more chance to win the major than furia and vp

[waxen grail]

i love vp

less now than in csgo

their play in csgo was so boring it wrapped around to being funny

[wintry skiff]

objectively theyre doing the right thing, but as a viewer

[covert palm]

Saw wins the major

[wintry skiff]

what about

the Mongolz

everybody wins if they do

[covert palm]

True everytime jame saved

[waxen grail]

i will never forget their pro league game vs g2

inferno

the best

that stupid fucking tside where they forced for like

8 rounds in a row instead of an eco

[covert palm]

Just Vp things

Jame the mad wizard

[waxen grail]

this is like gambit winning but better

[sour nexus]

So the nexts events are closed RMR qualifiers, then EPL, then Blast and then major

[waxen grail]

bc it’s random dudes from mongolia instead of zeus and kazakh players

[sour nexus]

So basically 3 ish events for teams to show their improvement

[waxen grail]

and xgod

[waxen grail]

if spirit do really well in one event they can win the major

[covert palm]

I think spirit

[wintry skiff]

EPL is not even S-Tier in terms of prestige

[sour nexus]

the team is imploding

[covert palm]

No changes ain't gonna win shit

[wintry skiff]

*this current format

[sour nexus]

probably issues with zontix, idk

[covert palm]

yeah

[waxen grail]

they all look depressed apart from donk

[sour nexus]

donk and sh1ro dont seem like people beefing with others, chopper and magixx are like mom and dad of the team

[waxen grail]

magixx is

fine

like

completely fine

[sour nexus]

yes

[waxen grail]

i can’t complain, he’s on smg or shotgun half the rounds

[sour nexus]

chopper is most underated IGL, doing fine aswell

so its really just get rid of zontix and sign perfecto

[waxen grail]

zontix navi

it’s time

[covert palm]

I think so

[sour nexus]

navi jr yes

develop him

[waxen grail]

at that point just go to b8

LOL

wait

what roles does donk’s friend play

[wintry skiff]

malbs to COL and donk to G2

[covert palm]

I think

[waxen grail]

the guy on betboom

[sour nexus]

join NIP and go ukrainian team

[covert palm]

Blast will probably decide

[waxen grail]

ukrainian nip is so cursed

[covert palm]

Whos good or not tbf

[waxen grail]

it somehow beats chinese nip in league

[covert palm]

Epl is epl

[waxen grail]

oh also

i have a

[sour nexus]

EPL is like 3 week holiday and playing one week in total

[waxen grail]

very weird roster change to make

where cadian goes somewhere

[wintry skiff]

imagine telling 2015 fnatic and nip fans that the swedish scene is pratically dead since 2020-ish

[covert palm]

Yea

[covert palm]

Let him cook

Where does cadian go

[waxen grail]

respect brollan and iem 1989 mvp REZ

[waxen grail]

fnatic

[sour nexus]

imagine telling 2010 mouz fans that german CS is dead since after cologne 2018

[covert palm]

Oh ....

[waxen grail]

drop afro he sucks

bodyy no longer igl

[wintry skiff]

Rez owes that oakland tournament everything

[waxen grail]

blame bodyy cadian krimz idr who else

that’s like

[covert palm]

Might be a team

[sour nexus]

MATYS

[waxen grail]

honestly not a bad roster

[sour nexus]

Young rifler

[waxen grail]

yeah him

[sour nexus]

Very strong

[waxen grail]

solid player

[covert palm]

Would

[covert palm]

Defo cause a ruckus at the major

[sour nexus]

[covert palm]

Oh he's on

9ine now

[sour nexus]

[sour nexus]

[wintry skiff]

9ine becoming an international team

[sour nexus]

probably -BOROS

[waxen grail]

goodbye boros

yeah i’ve seen he hasn’t been playing

[wintry skiff]

while Ence became a Polish team

is weird to my mind

[waxen grail]

the kosovars and smooya isn’t a bad one

[waxen grail]

nah

[sour nexus]

misutaa on 9ine???

[waxen grail]

monte is polish now

[covert palm]

Yeap

[covert palm]

Literally none of the old ence players left

[sour nexus]

demqq can speak polska?

well must be

[waxen grail]

seeing as lnbt is coaching

i doubt it

[covert palm]

Maybe Ukrainian and polska

R close enough

[waxen grail]

probably just english

LOL

[sour nexus]

berry (danish) coaching SAW

[waxen grail]

fair

[sour nexus]

i dont think he can portugeese

[waxen grail]

i think they could just comm english

[sour nexus]

they wont

[waxen grail]

and then swap if demqq dies

[covert palm]

Nah they comms in Portuguese

[waxen grail]

unless demqq been on duolingo

[waxen grail]

i meant monte

[covert palm]

I rmbr watching the g2 game

[waxen grail]

saw yeah ofc

[covert palm]

Oh rip lol

Sorry

[waxen grail]

all good dw dw

i was a bit unclear

[sour nexus]

or Devilwalk back in bNE

was the same case

[waxen grail]

that was funny

[covert palm]

Demq might speak polska who knows

[waxen grail]

bNE had like

[covert palm]

Wheres

Cypher at rn

[waxen grail]

3 players

[waxen grail]

bleed

honestly not a bad roster

[covert palm]

AH

[sour nexus]

bleed can work out

[covert palm]

Kassad yeah

[sour nexus]

but they need more tourneys

[covert palm]

If he can get

[covert palm]

Nexa to not be a bot

It woukd be good

[waxen grail]

tbf even if he is they went bot for bot with faven

[covert palm]

I wonder where bleeds cs hq is

[sour nexus]

nawwk jkaem hampus is a good core actually

[waxen grail]

yeah like

[sour nexus]

Serbia probably

[waxen grail]

it’s not bad at all

[covert palm]

I doubt it's here lol we literally have 0 cs tourneys

[waxen grail]

oh yeah no chance

[covert palm]

Probably maybe at Ynks place

[sour nexus]

They will play ESL challenger soon and then RMR

[waxen grail]

am i insane for thinking kassad isn’t a bad choice for a project like bleed

[covert palm]

nope

[sour nexus]

why they so bad

[covert palm]

I think his a great choice tbf

[sour nexus]

kassad can build rosters

[waxen grail]

b8 good

[sour nexus]

Remember Renegades/100Thieves?

[waxen grail]

npl top 3 igl for sure

[covert palm]

Oh yea

[sour nexus]

I only know nipple in B8

And this rinkle guy played there

[waxen grail]

headtrick

[covert palm]

Rinkle npl

[waxen grail]

he’s replacing rinkle LOL

[sour nexus]

headtrick isnt an Awper

[covert palm]

Oh is B8 made of benched youngsters lol

[sour nexus]

he should continue rifle

[waxen grail]

yeah baz was on spirit academy

[wintry skiff]

i wonder how cs would be

if EG did hire Kassad

[sour nexus]

lmao

[waxen grail]

unless alex666 is an awper

i think he’s still awping

[covert palm]

An alternate timeline

[sour nexus]

well imma head out now

[wintry skiff]

we would already have warzone - fixed matchmaking - functionning anti cheat

[wintry skiff]

[waxen grail]

kassad would bring NA their greatest period

purely by bringing in niko

[covert palm]

[covert palm]

LOL

Eg Niko

[waxen grail]

thorin had a podcast where he kassad and maui just make stupid points and ngl

it’s got some quality

[covert palm]

I only listen to

Taking counter

[waxen grail]

that’s a solid one

maniac really like

brings rationality to some thorin content

[covert palm]

Cause I love listening to Chad ynk and Jason talk shit

Half of the time they aren't even talking cs

[covert palm]

Best episodes r the ones with the players though

[waxen grail]

that’s like half of cs’s best imo

[waxen grail]

nah the funniest thing was maui going yeah jl > nertz

[covert palm]

Can't go wrong with them 3

[covert palm]

ain't no way

[waxen grail]

and kassad and thorin losing their minds

[covert palm]

Mauis back

For blast was it

[waxen grail]

i like maui tbf

[wintry skiff]

i agree

[waxen grail]

yeah for blast

[covert palm]

Can't rmbr but he's back as an analyst in an event

Finally

[wintry skiff]

JL is more marketable with his personality

[covert palm]

Mauis a good analyst

[waxen grail]

100%

[covert palm]

He's a memelord for sure lol

[waxen grail]

jL personality is great

[wintry skiff]

he brings vibes and stats

[covert palm]

My friend put a jL holo on his r8

Cause of the r8 round

[covert palm]

Done

[waxen grail]

but the man has an agenda to push

[waxen grail]

that team will either win everything or disband in 2 months

[covert palm]

We win the major first

They can end each other after the major win

[waxen grail]

i don’t think simple knows what a malbs is

[covert palm]

Probably thinks it's some sort of

South American cuisine

[sour nexus]

Mouz 2-1 Navi, Vitality 2-0 SAW

[sour nexus]

This series is a banger

Already 4 maps confirmed

[covert palm]

every map has been close too

[waxen grail]

this is an amazing series

[covert palm]

has to be

contentor for best series this year already

3 close maps

2 going to ot

[waxen grail]

its this or faze spirit imo

[covert palm]

holy shit

[covert palm]

TRIPLE OT

how

the shit

[sour nexus]

what is this

holy f

[covert palm]

did they retake that

how

[sour nexus]

liquid

is that you?

[covert palm]

barely enough time for the defuse

@sour nexus getting your moneys worth for sure

[sour nexus]

I forgot you got delay

Imma be quiet

[sour nexus]

Absolutely

But being a Vitality fan is tough right now

Especially with all the crowd being NaVi fans

[covert palm]

plently of chances for vit to close

and they close

[covert palm]

ah yea the delay LOL

[sour nexus]

OH MY GOD

20:20, me "whoever gets 21 wins series", Vitality proceeds to win both

I am so exhausted

There were no cheers for Vitality up until Overtime

Now extended break to refuel some energy

Both teams going full tilt

[covert palm]

wonderful needs to step up

if navi wants to have a chance

inferno is gonna be a banger

[sour nexus]

Can Aleksi break his BO5 curse tho

[waxen grail]

it doesn’t look like it

[covert palm]

holy that spray trasnfer

by spinx

Apex rolling back the years with

That entry

[waxen grail]

that was an unbelievable entry my god

[sour nexus]

what is going on

that apex triple

The pistol choke from navi

[covert palm]

Gg vittt

That was getting abit

Dicey

[sour nexus]

LETS FUCKING GOOOO

[sour nexus]

At halftime I was joking we will get to Overtime, so close...

But that was one of the best series I've ever seen in my life, and being there in person makes it a thousand times better

[covert palm]

Super jealous

But glad you had a blast for sure

3 maps of truly end to end cs even inferno

Was exciting and dicey towards the end

Only way it could been better was us getting anubis

[sour nexus]

Also iM showing an insane performance

[sour nexus]

oh absolutely

[covert palm]

B1t on inferno too

[sour nexus]

b1t is the best rifler at the moment in my opinion

the way he clears angles, consistently hitting headshots even when spraying

[covert palm]

I'm biased as hell

[sour nexus]

the confidence he has most of the time

[covert palm]

So I have to say Niko

My g2 membership prevents me from saying anyone else

but b1t at his best is truly ridiculous as well

[sour nexus]

That one round in Inferno aps where I think mezii was behind him, not turning around and instead focusing down Spinx before turning around and killing mezii aswell

[covert palm]

Yeap

[sour nexus]

Those balls b1t has

[covert palm]

Cool as a cucumber that

The way he snaps onto heads too

Insane crosshair placement

[sour nexus]

absolutely

he is a beast

[covert palm]

At the moment

Top5 rifles

NiKo B1t for sure

[sour nexus]

and even tho NaVi didnt win, it was a great showing, keeping all maps very close and ofcourse reaching 2nd place in cologne, its a great achievment showing that they might have deserved the major

[sour nexus]

definitly

[covert palm]

I think Xertion has a shout

[sour nexus]

oh true

he is pretty nuts aswell

[covert palm]

Twistzz

Even while IGLing

[waxen grail]

donk.

[sour nexus]

omg

how did I forget

[waxen grail]

bc spirit has been bad LOL

[sour nexus]

true

[waxen grail]

it’s understandable

however

still could be niko

since he kinda wrecks donk 1 on 1

[sour nexus]

Spirit could've been one of the best teams this year, but crumbling this hard right before the major is bad

pretty bad

[covert palm]

I didnt want to say Donk

[sour nexus]

well, dexter can wreck NiKo 1 on 1 aswell, and he did back in MOUZ

[covert palm]

Cause currently

[waxen grail]

the only thing i could maybe even slightly see is just

[covert palm]

With how spirit is idt he should be there

[waxen grail]

maybe they do well one event

and get their mental back a little

[covert palm]

But also I think its cause we've such high expectations for him

He's looking more human now

[sour nexus]

I wouldnt put an order on who is the best within the top 5 riflers (and maybe even awpers), they are just within this bubble and everyone has their ups and downs

[covert palm]

I actl have another shout

Jimphatt.

[sour nexus]

true

[covert palm]

Can I say he might be the best anchor in the world right now

[sour nexus]

jimi is strong rifler, especially with the roles hes playing

B Aps Mirage?? oh boy

[covert palm]

Ridiculous anchor

Truly ridiculous

Always produces

Despite being in terrible spots

[sour nexus]

I didnt even knew he was anchor until I saw him playing B Aps on Mirage against NaVi yesterday

Like this guy is so a good rifler

[covert palm]

yeap

I'm pretty sure

He's only like 17 18 too

[sour nexus]

17

Unless he had birthday within last 2 months or so

[covert palm]

No clue

[sour nexus]

Still 17 oh boy

[covert palm]

He's defo gonna be the best anchor in the world for sure

[sour nexus]

he has a long career to go

[covert palm]

I can't think of anyone better right now

[sour nexus]

Hear me out, we will surely see him and m0nesy playing together in a team in like 5 years

[covert palm]

Ooo

Now if g2 moves on from niko and hunter

Hear me out

m0nesy malbs jimphatt suihy

[sour nexus]

you cant break up MOUZ at the moment tho, their chemistry is like one of the bests out there

[covert palm]

1 more anchor and this team destroys tier 1

[sour nexus]

only C9 with n0thing shroud freak seangares had better chemistry

[covert palm]

yea defo not rn

[covert palm]

But this + anchor would be

Insane

[sour nexus]

I want malbs to play star roles in G2 on CT, his output on T is unmatched

Wait, malbs is top rifler aswell at the moment

[covert palm]

yeap

I didn't want to put malbs yet too cause 2 events is still early ish?

Also g2 bias HAHA

But he's defo up there atm

Even on CT learning roles

He has had clear impact

[sour nexus]

I mean he did play anchor in TeamOne and he has matured and grown as a player since then

so maybe it can work out

[covert palm]

I hope so

[sour nexus]

but oh boy imagine him playing Con on Mirage or Short, together with NiKo and m0nesy

[covert palm]

But I also was hoping

Hunter would anchor instead

[sour nexus]

100% CT winrate on mirage

[covert palm]

And him taking those roles

[sour nexus]

exactly

i hate hunter for that tbh

[covert palm]

They are splitting them for some maps so

It isn't so bad

But I think that's the progression

[sour nexus]

tbf hunter did perform well recently

lets see within the next months

[covert palm]

much better

G2 issues is now

[sour nexus]

but imagine a better IGL than snax

[covert palm]

Tactical rather then

[sour nexus]

And remove Taz as coach

[covert palm]

Not being able to shoot

[sour nexus]

And finally get that psychologist onto the team

[covert palm]

• Hooxi unironically

[sour nexus]

EXACTLY

He won them Kato and Cologne

You got malbs to frag instead of nexa

from 0.8 to 1.3

[covert palm]

We did it with jks

[sour nexus]

what more do want?

well yes, but chemistry seems a bit better with malbs

[covert palm]

malbs is a jks on crack

[sour nexus]

also jks on Liquid feels too good

[covert palm]

I think jks fits liquid alot better

Personalities are most chill

Naf Twistz

Fits like a glove

[sour nexus]

and jks trying out new roles

even tho I expected NAF to do thaz

since he wanted to be the star back in Renegades

tbf wanted to be because they were shit

[covert palm]

Yeap

Also it's good to watch jks

Play ramp on nuke again

[sour nexus]

Oh yes

[covert palm]

Probably the best in the world in that one specific position

[sour nexus]

b1t on ramp feels wasted, put him outside

[covert palm]

Oh yes

let b1t take duels

But alexi wants the info ig

[sour nexus]

yea true

[wintry skiff]

Dupreeh to COL

Would be cinema

[sour nexus]

wirh Magisk

[covert palm]

What's the next event up

Epl ?

[sour nexus]

Even tho I love floppy, he doesnt really perform well

[covert palm]

• grim - floppy

[sour nexus]

Blast Final, then EPL

[covert palm]

• magsik + dupreeh

[sour nexus]

and the RMR closed quals are aswell?

[covert palm]

Ah forgot about that too

Hopefully g2 figures it out then

[covert palm]

I want snax to succeed but man

Its literally go kill rn

And if they dh momentum they can't put rounds tgf

Even though they can smash the opening duels

[covert palm]

So probably rmrs to epl to blast

[wintry skiff]

Best tactic

[covert palm]

It works

[sour nexus]

malbs niko go kill

[covert palm]

Until it doesn't

[sour nexus]

hunter snax go trade

monesy go mvp

[covert palm]

Pretty much LOL

Winning by shear force

[sour nexus]

Something that Furia tried to be

But they had arT

Also where is he atm? Didnt hear anything since his benching earlier this year

[wintry skiff]

Fluxo ?

Iirc

Or some t2 br team

[sour nexus]

oh yeah

he joined Fluxo after the old furia coach joined them aswell

they picked up kye aswell

its basically furia bench pickup team

[covert palm]

oh hea

Well furia

Will kscerato

Ever win anything

We will find out

[sour nexus]

one of the few players that never won anything

atleast NiKo got a Kato and Cologne

[wintry skiff]

Respect elisa masters espoo

[sour nexus]

Idk this

the only wannabe A-tier tournaments that I accept is that one CCT final that the Mongolz won
