must watch game, one of the best midrounding/stragetic maps of all time.

saadhaak places 1 way and fakes TP noise(no one from NAVI heard), LESS also shoots a molly from short where suygetsu hears.
viper ult short, raze ult + nade for shower exec counter.
just fucking beautiful, sadly rare bad game from shao NAVI deserved to win it

Yea great gameplay. Saadhaak is just that good of an igl. They would have won that round if Saadhaak applied real pressure showers, it would have caught ange1 for playing that risky, but that's just a wrong read so nothing that big. The read from NAVI about not holding showers too hard was really good.

it wasnt really a read that LOUD was gonna play heavy showers its just they had raze ult and viper ult so round win, though the omen pressure wouldve worked really well if they had done the same play on a different round. but yeah super nice game man, one of the best FR behind NAVI and FNATIC ascent game this year.

Bro the round b4 (round 5) NAVI loses that anti-eco because Cned stuns Zyppan which then gets him killed. The showers crunch was really good, but that one fuckup from Cned cost them that round.

Less is a monster

i watched that game live. only a group stage but it was something special. one of my faves ever

shao and cauanzin had a mid off in the last map

navi actually looked like they got their shit together too, a shame that 3 of them were -30 or so combined

triple smoke!!?!!

There are some small things that 2023 teams don't do that would let 2024 teams destroy them. I'm mainly talking about how when players apply solo pressure in certain areas, like showers or something. They usually don't keep the space for too long or not at all. Top 2024 teams would insta reclear that making that pressure obsolete. And such the inverse is true where 2023 teams would take longer to reclear some areas. It is also a factor of the different meta, mainly how broken Skye was back then (refresh flash).
