Shourd is not overrated

#1

kylocat

Funny how people are taking his ranked stats and say he's overrated. We all know he wasn't trying his best in those games. Not to mention he was one of the best NA players with some of the best mechanics back in his CS days.

nothing special, cant understand the nostalgia some people feel towards him remembering him as a top mechanical player, he is just average to me, probably just overhyped mechanics because he was one of the biggest streamers in csgo

1v1 aim maps are not very skillful, fucking loba beating t1 pros in those, specially when its about pros who all have great aim and most of the duels are coinflips in those type of maps

not really lol, s1mple was streaming 1v1 on aim redline against bombl4 before major and the score was pretty even but you cant really say their rifles are even at all s1mple is 10x times the rifler bombl4 is, this maps most duels you can only see the opponent head and its pretty far distance so its only tapping/burst and sometimes the "lucky" one gets the kill, literally no spraying no anything just praying to click the head a bit faster than the other, that doesnt mean anything mechanically

Shroud lost to S1mple, but it was much closer than expected. People were meming on the fact that s1mple looked like he was try harding while shroud was just casually playing.

Clearly, I was. He was a shit player that only gained clout because he would stream way more than any other pro and post his flashy clips (that came from pubs) in reddit. Not even pugs, but pubs! He has one tier4 trophy and not a single good performance.

I think watching shroud play I realized how much of a team orientated player he is. He really plays situation safely and maybe it's due to him being older now. I think the real danger is having shroud and tenz on the same team. I think that shroud playstyle and experience would mold tenz to be more of a deadly player.

Exactly, Let him enjoy. he is ready to grind and his fans are excited to watch him play again... stop hating on him dude... He is called washed up, pay stealer and much more just bcoz he wanted to pursue FULL time Streaming and C9 wanted him to stick... Maybe he didnt achieve much in CS in terms of trophies and all, but he was good.. Not underestimating or overestimating him. He is God king of FPS for me.

Its not about his stats, its because he has not play a pro matches for so long( apart from his team back in stage 3 last year open qual)
So that’s why im quite wary on the situation

“One of the best in NA”

I don’t think you actually watched CS. He was good in 2013-14 and then he didn’t do anything at all and was called a paycheck stealer for years until he retired.

Shroud really didn’t achieve anything from 2015 onwards and often bottomfragged in his team. The entire cs community thought he was better off streaming than being a pro. There’s like 20-30 NA players that did better than him over csgo’s history

I don't think anyone remembers this, but shroud actually had a role change. From being a star fragger, to literally be the support player. That would be why his stats didn't look great. And with achievements, IT'S NA CS, they had 1 major win, before that was ChokeQuid, and before that we had C9, 2nd in IEM Berlin if i remember correctly

shroud was known for his clips in pubg and cod. without nothing, he wouldn't have won anything. Every American player is hyped about their mechanical skills but they have nothing to show for it, most of the time.

Im p sure every na fan is just joking around shroud doesnt bring a lot to the table, he was decent in na cs and has a lot of experience but a lot of people are just making fun of sentinels obvious clout move. And the sen players all said they wanted shroud probably bc its a cool experience to join up with the most popular cs pro of all time. Shroud will just be average tho as any 5th probably wouldve been.

He’ll probably be average tier 1 player like kanpeki who just there and does his job somewhat succesfully. So sen isnt going to be doing very well bc they dont have sick tenz and maybe dapr to bail them out now they only have tenz and dapr to play well so they can maybe win a map or match.
