Saadhak about Loud's opponents till' now

In a recent stream, Saadhak talked about Loud's opponents till' now, in the São Paulo Lock/In. I'll translate what he said for u guys:

Gen G: "Those guys are very good. We talked with DRX about them, and they told us that those guys were very good and the best ones in Asia, what got me scared. But it was a good debut for us."

Karmine Corp: "Those guys are very good individually. They have a very particular tactical style, that we were not used to. This team reminds me of CS:GO Navi team, who likes to play in the last seconds of the rounds. They are very hard to play against."

NRG: "Those guys are very, very good. The worst part is that we'll have to face them in the Americas League. My individual performance dropped a lot during the series because I needed to think a lot more in strategies, I almost started crying because I didn't know what more to do. It is always a pleasure to face a team that takes you to your limit. Regardless if we lost or won the series, I got very happy about the performance of the new boys".

He concluded talking about Less and Aspas: "With Sacy and Pancada leaving the team, Less grow up a lot as a leader in the team, not only in-game, but out-game as well. Aspas is talking a lot during the games, he's giving me a lot of ideas for what to do. I just have to say thank you to my team for carrying me, haha!"

Less is so good
Underrated player for sure, he has insane aim and thinks a lot in the game too

I almost started crying because I didn't know what more to do. It is always a pleasure to face a team that takes you to your limit.

Damn, you can feel the love for the game here

Something crazy to think about is that 4 of the 5 players on LOUD are less than 20 years old

Saadhak is the goat. What a W player. I just wanna hug him and give him a big ol kiss.

I’m so impressed with Loud’s ability to integrate the new players. Their series versus NRG was one of my favorite games I have ever watched.

W Saadhak respecting other teams. I wonder how true DRX’s word is about Gen.G or if they were just hyping up the homies for their debut

Drx finally scrimming korean teams?

Every opponents they already face in this tournament had different playstyle IMO (east Asia playstyle, tactical CSGO playstyle, and strategy base playstyle). But now DRX is a complete all around team. This will be a great matchup of course

Definitely! And DRX vs LOUD is a win-win scenario too honestly, cause either I get to see DRX finally make a GF or LOUD play with a packed crowd. Obviously I’d still rather see DRX win and maybe get another slot for Pacific but it will be a great match regardless of the result.

gordonramsay [#20]

Drx finally scrimming korean teams?

I think so. It would either be scrim all teams including KR teams or not scrimming any Pacific franchise teams at all, so my guess would be they’re doing the former*

Edit: they also scrimmed Talon before so nearly 100% sure they scrim Gen.G too now

Rendzin [#13]

he said it more in a joking tone, but this series was very challenging for them

Rendzin, cê tem certeza que o saadhak chorou por causa que o jogo tava díficil? Eu entendi que ele tá quase chorando por ver a evolução dos meninos que entraram, que treino é treino camp é camp e quando a pressão estava neles, eles não deixaram a desejar nenhum minuto.
Ele quase chorou de orgulho foi isso que entendi.

Tanto é que ele falou depois que o Tuyz veio até ele agradecer a oportunidade e tudo mais, e ele quase chorou de novo.
Se ele falou o que você disse pode mandar o link ou o tempo exato?

Se ele falou o que eu disse acho melhor se fazer outro edit ali pra não gerar interpretações erradas.

https://youtu.be/8avwMS-s100?t=200 dá uma ligada nesse tempo aqui e vai assistindo.

Edit: agora vi o momento que você falou. Ele falou esse aí brincando, e você acabou de comentar isso também.
Desculpa aí pelo engano meu mano. Mas eu acho que seria legal mesmo era colocar essa parte da emoção que ele sentiu do Tuyz e cauanzin. Foi o que mais me emocionei.

I genuinely think DK can gain so much from being scrim partners w DRX. No reason for them not to scrim dplus now since they wont be meeting each other anytime soon

King shit.

To you and Saadhak. <3

He’s a goat fr fr

Glad he represents the Americas.

A more detailed translation of what he said about cauanzin and tuyz:

"What made me most happy, regardless of whether we won or lost, were the (new) boys. I was very happy with them because, like it or not, a scrim is a scrim and a championship is a championship, and the boys really tested themselves. At a moment of maximum pressure, at a moment where they needed to show up, they were there, clutching rounds, clicking heads, communicating, not giving up. I swear, I saw that and almost started crying (not joking this time lol), I'm not even kidding. I almost started to cry. One of them is 17 and the other is 19, man! None of the 4 players turned 20 yet! This championship is a litmus test for the team, to see where we really stand in the global scene, if we can handle pressure, if we can handle mistakes, and the boys are impressive. The boys are impressive.

A while after the game (against NRG), tuyz came up to me and said: 'Hey, Saad, thanks a lot for this opportunity.' And then I almost started to cry. I'm almost crying right now, but it's amazing to see how they enjoy playing and how humble they are at the same time. Real humbleness, you know? I'm talking about that 'I'm here, I'm trying hard, it's working, I'm working' mentality."

Respect ++++

W Saadhak. I always respect a sportsperson who respects his competitors rather than just trash talking about them.
You have my respect King 👑 🛐

The crowd is going to be so tough for drx, I hope their mental doesn't get boomed. The crowd seems so oppressive, I felt so bad for nrg when the crowd just screamed whenever they lost a round.

Bro don't even compare FNS to Saadhak. FNS had the aim of a literal Plat player and bro starts ADSing at a person less than 5m away from him 💀 Saadhak has much better aim and clutch potential, and also calls out plays well as an IGL. He's a total package unlike FNS who's always carried by his team.

W chadhak

i love this guy

what a good guy and congrats to him

Fuck man I love LOUD

We don't hate NRG. Is just a culture of competitive sports here.. take a look on some videos of brazilian soccer crowds. The guy that is trash talking in the crowd during the game is the same guy that is gonna ask for pictures and hug the players of the opponent team after the game. It's just EXTREME competitiveness and passion

yeah i understand, of course brazilian fans will cheer for brazilian teams. it is just that its so difficult when the crowd goes wild when you lose a round and the crowd sighs in disappointment when you win a round. it can really affect the mental of a team, even if they know that the crowd doesn't hate them, if you know what i mean. im worried that drx won't be able to focus on their game, since they are known for having fairly weak mental late into tournaments.
