valo just has more variety of utility, so that's why it's more unique and game turning I guess

3-7 over both stages, n1

yes, flamie got washed during the pandemic, back then he was like a solid 3rd option

so basically lack of experience in CS, got it, I assume you are from asia, and valve never really cared to set up the scene. But asia is rising in CS, Mongol team is like top 8 rn

FaZe vs G2 = 1.4mil

honestly, i feel like he had one opportunity to move to navi - late 2017. Problem is, the GOAT IGL Zeus basically left his previous team and it was a nobrainer for navi to get angel instead of zeus. also hellraisers being a bit of a cheap org didn't help his career

s1mple basically got fed up with cs2 + wants to settle down living in europe since he is basically living hotel from hotel since the war in Ukraine started

cologne is like 3rd biggest event of the year. also btw fake info, check escharts

ange1 never was navi level in CS

respectfully, what is there not to like about cs?

utility should come on better timings, that's the point of CS, proper utility usage burns down the site completely

but cs gains the evolution of utility usage. you can watch for yourself today, before that those smokes outside on nuke were thrown by hand, now there are set lineups, before that teams used 3 smokes, now they use 2, also the new feature of breaking smokes gave a new level of mind games as well

but it prevented him from getting invites to the major circuit because of the vac ban, why he left imo

the only note worthy cs player who left for valorant ( at the moment of departure) was Ethan, maybe nitro. Shall I remind you that ethan is a champions winner? Jamppi was a cheater, scream is washed, angel is washed, same for others, either washed or unproven. Subroza, tarik, wardell were tier 2 when they left

that's kinda the beauty of the game for me, you can't just spam utility and win

this is not the major bro, it happened in march already, navi took it, and there is one more in Shanghai in december

I would say that CS is more like traditional football and valorant is more like basketball.

if he doesn't life game, I can see navi winning in 4

but these bums wouldn't even scrub tier 2 EU, Boaster was in tier 5, wtf bros. like Americas has developed talent, it isn't only tier 2-3 leavers from CS like zellsis or yay, likes of zekken and demon1 are new talents, why doesn't EMEA have better ones

Why is EMEA so ass? Last time I remember watching VCT Champions 2021 EMEA dominated, had 3 out of the top 4 teams in Champs, how come the region is being cucked by pacific, china and near airport, how? How are the teams always lacking in firepower compared to the likes of Leviatan?

well yeah, NA has the best crowds in most esports imho

Volodymyr Selenskyj doesn't have alts, NT

Fnatic have peaked, heretics have Troll and MiniTroll, vitality shat themselves, Fut are trash, liquid and navi folded, koi and giant are ass, gentle mates are meh, Karmine Corp are inconsistent, just fucking fold and go back to CS, you are not built for valorant, just like NA ain't built for CS

Fold the region bros, you ain't winning shit

Fold the region, being so shit needs to be studied

Pack your bags, bros, no coming back when you lose to Near Airport, Pissific and China, that's just a new low.

They don't even have a place to retire, too shit for CS, Boo, MiniBoo and Boaster in a 3-men package to Aldi, here we GO

Leo pregnant check vlr.gg

Fucking toddler behaviour, he should honestly fucking retire, because If fnatic kick him, bro might kill himself

An IGL is supposed to win his 1v1s time to time as well. He simply cannot be a fragging liability on this level. Perhaps they need a 2nd caller as well so that the fucker can at least look where his crosshair is

And what org would possibly have this lineup?

Gambit 2021 superteam re-emerging, POG, time to show which region dominates in 5v5 FPS

Yeah because changing the management is so easy xd

Signs in crowd are the easiest way to signal cheat. Put one guy with a before hand written sign in a place where you can easily see him. You play on attack, for example. The guy holds the sign when you need to go A and puts it down when you need to go B. Ez pz, no need for anal pleasure

Brainfart.
''I need a link to make my fartbait more real'' -> ''AH YES, I have now found a link to a game when Joseph Stalin was still alive to back up my claim!!111''

honestly as a guy who followed him since 2018 (when I got into CS), this motherfucker just different, he basically shat on old gen players, inspired new gen players, waited for them to grow up ( monesy, headtrick, shiro, wonderful), mostly shat on them, left, and now has them begging for him to return. Truly goat behaviour

biggest viewership
/closed
ORRRRRRRRRRR MAYBE THE ENTIRE EVENT IS SCRIPTED SO THAT SENTINELS GO ONTO A LOWER BRACKET RUN AND BECOME GOAT ORG IN VALORANT, FOREVER MAKING TENZ THE GOAT, GET OUT OF MY HEAD CIA

yeah, him starting to peak right before astralis and covid hit really fucked up his trophy cabinet. The GOAT FPS player for sure

I must admit, they are not so good as nicknames making fun of players themselves, like Perfecto -> Defecto, kennyS -> PennyS, ZyWoo -> ZyPoo, apex -> APEx, cadian into comedian, just turning the nickname with 0 is actually not so funny, com into cum is peak

s1mple was the most popular example, but there were other pros with a 1 in the nickname

probably because some players had a 1 in their nickname in other esports (e.g. S1mple -> s0mple, dev1ce -> dev0ce, b1t - b0t), just ruins the feeling of the nickname and 1 standing for superiority being replaced by a number which stands for literally nothing is demeaning. other creatives nicknames still clear, like Team Chokequid

you gotta win the games you are given. EDG won them, so have Lev. Bigger names like Fnatic and Sentinels, or Heretics have not won those games, therefore they are less deserving than those who are in the UB right now. Simple as that

crazy how dimasick went from avangar ( the core which then went on to win IEM RIo 2022 in CSGO) to Liquid, kinda crazy

Thanks for explaining!

so sentinels have already spent their slot on johnqt, since he is from emea? what happens if a player has double citizenship?

I don't know VCT rules at all, how many europeans are allowed in one team which competes in VCT americas?
