2021-2022 was peak

yeah

so many teams just not performing that well

Vitality and Spirit are like always winning, MOUZ/NAVI/EF/Mongolz are always title contenders but bottle it somehow, and then there is G2/Falcons/FaZe struggling a lot

i got scared with COL recent perf

that they would steal m80's spot

because i dont think m80 would have kept the roster

if they didnt get stickers

just had a very stupid idea

#

-magisk +jks

sour nexus
#

I see your vision

#

But Magisk is a bit more consistent if he finds his form again

#

Which can happen with a player like m0nesy by his side

okay what the actual hell?

to replace TeSeS? the player you are currently trying to give more resources to become a star?

What is this final map

#

Its insane

#

When I tuned in it was 11:5 for Falcons

teal bison
#

before this map if you told me teses would have more kills than zywoo id have laughed at ya

#

teses is such a strong player since playing under kyxsan

teal bison
#

GRAND SLAM

sour nexus
#

GGs

#

Congrats Vita on the Grand Slam

#

Still no team has managed to ever ruin a Grand Slam

#

Nice try from Falcons tho, even tho I hate the org, the roster is fire honestly

teal bison
#

roster of dreams, but thats what money enables you to do

sour nexus
#

Also ropz doing something Twistzz couldnt do, winning the Grand Slam back to back

teal bison
#

seeing apex and zywoo come up this far, crazy really

#

remembering the days of shoxie, rpk, alex on the roster

sour nexus
#

Since 2019 they have been trying

#

They kept believing in each other

#

And now look where they are

teal bison
#

yea all credit to them, both of em trusted each other (not like apex had any other choice really oliviaha and the things they;ve achieved

#

now time to get food LOL ive been sitting here ages

sour nexus
#

I can finally go to sleep now heejinkek

#

Cant wait for the major

#

Its actually 3 big events, 2 months away YvesDed

#

What is teses doing

#

Considering they got stomped on 2 maps, still a good performance

waxen grail
#

no clue how you -teses before magisk especially now

sour nexus
#

yeah teses is becoming a monster

#

NiKo and kyxsan mentioned in an interview aswell that they wanna give more resources to him as he has the potential to be a great rifler

#

Also this one kinda surprising

so youre saying

If its a good grand final then yes

M80 v Complexity

M80 vs. Vita/Spirit

But M80 have to defeat either one of them and Mongolz/Falcons/Aurora in the playoffs

Then I would be really really hyped

and its Vita vs. Falcons grand final all over again

2 bo5 finals in the space of a week between the two best teams is crazy

Especially the thought of two BO5 finals in a week, never in GO

FaZe -broky +s1mple ???????????

What is this?mm

marsh ivy
#

saw this on the tl and instantly came here

#

the fuck

sour nexus
#

Also just before the major??

#

Idk who decided on this move, doesnt feel like a karrigan thing to me

#

yes, broky's performance dropped a lot since two of the biggest impact riflers with ropz and Twistzz are gone, as he doesnt deliver the impact

#

But at the time where they are trying to fix the issues? This close to the major?

marsh ivy
#

hail mary honeymoon period run lfg

wintry skiff
sour nexus
#

Exactly lol

#

Also idk if s1mple is really the fix if three of your riflers are having more role clashes than expected

#

Even if we dont look at roles, the comms just seem off

wintry skiff
#

Save frozen

#

Imagine failing a clutch

#

You have s1mple openly being toxic

#

Then

#

Elige being passive agressive

sour nexus
#

Also s1mple being washed in CS2

#

I want him to prove me wrong tho

#

I guess after the major another bigger rebuild for them?

this is the most scuffed faze clan I've ever seen

#

and thats while there was the one with olof rain cold broky kjaerbye

depending on what happens with G2 and FaZe, there is a world we might see G2 +broky after the major

I couldnt watch all the maps FaZe played, but it seemed like their biggest issue at the moment is actually the CT side

which is understandable when playing with 2 stand-ins

but seeing how close they can bring games on the T side... just like the old days

actually its not too bad when they 11:1 BCG on CT side, but we talking about BCG with a stand-in aswell and just a weird roster overall

BLAST tv Austin Major Update 📌

We are aware that the decision to replace BESTIA at the BLAST tv Austin Major 2025 has led to a number of questions about the decision making process. In the interests of transparency, we are more than happy to provide further clarity regarding the factors which have led to this unfortunate outcome.

As is the case for any of our events, all participating teams are subject to the visa requirements of the host country. Since February, BLAST has been in consistent communication with all teams regarding the US visa process required to attend the event. This outreach began well ahead of qualification to ensure that any issues or delays could be addressed before the event.

In total, we have seen 31 teams and 158 players successfully secure the required visas, following the application process put in place for the tournament; all within the published deadlines.

BESTIA qualified for the tournament on Thursday, 17th April.

Each team is ultimately r…

So much drama with Blast again...

#

Just read through more stuff, so basically BESTIA got the visas and told BLAST but it was after the deadline so they still get replaced?

teal bison

yeah basically

#

they got the visas the day of the deadline but by the time they went to submit them to blast it was alr too late

#

then bestia and the part of the community supporting have essentially come out and said that the deadline stated by blast was too soon (iirc it was announced 3 days before)

Why win a tournament when you can just sell players?

lmao what a shxt show

#

FaZe have to play with rain in EPL and now Twistzz can't get his 5 matches in to play for the major with FaZe

#

but I dont really know the exact ruling for the major, maybe they can still play with Twistzz instead of rain in the major

wintry skiff
#

Twistzz needs to play 5 maps

#

to be considered Faze-core

sour nexus
#

is the core relevant for the major invite? as they have 4 players as a core already?

#

or are they required to play with the full 5 players they got the invite with?

#

because iirc s1mple joined them after the invite with the whole discussion around if broky or s1mple gets the sticker

wintry skiff
#

at least 3 out of the 5

sour nexus
#

so they can play major with twistzz but not EPL

wintry skiff
#

they dont really have time to get twistzz

#

5 maps

#

it will also impact Blast Rivals

wait nevermind

i forgot that its been a while since they got jcobb

they already got a core then

yeah

but they should be safe

they lose VRS points from forfeiting
