In G2's case it will though. nukkye is new IGL and has said that Pipson helps him a lot still when it comes to preparation and tactical side. And now they can't have tactical timeouts with their coach and overall prepping and stuff will be bit harder when they have to be connected through internet instead of just all being there.
H1ber is really good, but Derke is the goat. But they shouldn't have any problems with Derke though. I'm pretty sure he is born in Finland even though both of his parents are Russian. Could be wrong though.
Honestly, did Braveaf say anything bad bad? Sounds just patriotic young guy who has been consumed by Russian propaganda. All of his messages are just repeating what Putin has said in public. He didn't say that Ukrainians are bad people or should be killed or anything like that. Obviously supporting Russia in this war is bad, but its kind of easy to say it as non-Russian.
Yeah but its still kind of same thing. Doesn't matter are you 20 or 40 yo old. And 26 is still pretty young.
OW2 isn't out yet. First beta is coming later next month. Patiphan streamed Overwatch 1.
Duelist = Derke, nukkye, yay
Initiator = Trent , Sacy , crashies
Controller = Avova, Marved, Pancada/Mistic/Valyn
Sentinel = Magnum, Meddo (if can keep up form) and then I don't know
HLTV and its about CSGO, but its pretty fun site even outside of that. People discuss about all type of stuff there. Its like normal forum, but CSGO connects everyone. Obviously there's bunch of CSGO esport stuff as well. That is the main thing.
Depends how well Bonecold fits to team, but yeah he would be great stand-in. I hope it happens!
Let's just say that they wouldn't have it in Iceland if they were having a crowd.
(No offense towards the country or city just too small*)
Ofc it is. Stand-in will make things more difficult, but they still have decent chance. I think they have showed highest level out of any team going into Iceland even if their games against FPX and G2 were terrible.
tbh Shao was 5Head there. Boaster tried to outbrain Shao, but Shao outbrained him.
Liquid has so much potential still. With little work and changes they would be real contender team.
Not really. All they have to do is to just play meta comps and practice those. Quality of their players is so high. They practiced these weird comps while changing them every week, so its not surprising that they didn't have much going on. And based on what Soulcas was tweeting it seems like they are changing their approach. Obviously they might just continue with their weird comps and don't work on structure but who knows. They have potential just be hopeful.
They were already looking worse in Champions than what they did in LCQ and they still managed to finish 3rd-4th.
I've always been Mixwell doubter, but in my opinion his Chamber is maybe the best. I think he plays it really smartly and in a way I would. He utilizes his abilities really well unlikely some Chamber players who really underutilizes his kit IMO especially the tps
But I don't know would he want to IGL fulltime while also playing such hectic role, but who knows.
Why would they ever not have cNed as main duelist? He is just too good.
Hmm interesting. Don't know much about these guys outside hearing some people praising DeepMans here at times. Can someone who knows open up? At least they don't seem like upgrades, but who knows how they would drive under team like Acend.
Kind of understandable, but still sad.
Yeah he is great coach. Did wonders with Giants and look good in G2 as well.
He mainly meant prepping and doing tactics etc. nukkye said that he doesn't want to take as much responsibility/pressure yet. But also said that he will soon and Pipson will mentor him. It was in interview after G2 won.
Just really bad for tactical timeouts and overall it makes everything harder when Pipson can't be there with the players. They can't talk without being on computers/phones etc.
Fnatic still looks like the strongest team, if you don't count in their loses against FPX and G2. They lost Braveaf tho that is going to be big loss. G2 could fall, but they are also young team and we can't know their ceiling. G2 will not be able to have their coach though unless Riot somehow manages to do something about it. Really unlucky, since nukkye has even himself said that Pipson helps him a lot still. Team Liquid just got lucky. They didn't deserve the spot, but they still have potential. If they just hard grind meta comps they could be good team.
I just so so so much hope that Team Liquid takes this spot with pride and stop playing troll comps. Just grind normal meta comps and come to Iceland as real contender team. I'm going to lose it if they return looking same as they did in Challengers...
I feel like its more of a coach thing. Maybe ANGE1 still did prepping even though he wasn't playing, but even without him FPX was still really prepped for the teams they faced.
Its just seeding game. FPX is also playing off-roles anyway.
I know I will get shit for this: baddyG > ANGE1. Shao has lead this team really well and they still had same insane reads as they do now. baddyG is young player and would suck to see FPX lose him.
Yeah its important, but not for top regions tbh. Team like Fnatic will have no problems playing 1 extra game against some minor region 2nd/3rd seed.
I think both are just wearing their own leather jackets. Really versatile clothing piece. Highly recommend if you care about fashion. You can find bunch of different ones and racer is the type they are wearing im pretty sure.
both are just wearing different brand of leather jackets? Just look for racer leather jacket.
hoody just because he, Meddo or Avova will never win MVP when G2 has Mixwell and nukkye. More popular players. Great game from nukkye as well.
G2 is good, but also Fnatic isn't playing their best. It was actually really common for Fnatic to play pretty bad online and that's why they are called LAN demons. This year they have also performed well online, but maybe its with what Mini said that they perform on high pressure games and struggle to perform in games that "don't matter".
Fnatic just played default and FPX had prepped really well against it. Also Fnatic players were just having bad day I think. They were whiffing quite a lot and didn't look as confident.
No shit. On average you can become fulltime streamer with 100 avg viewers, so what you think people with 15 000(?) avg viewers make?
Fnatic and M3C (when playing A game from this tournament) are definitely better than OpTic and C9. FPX is still question with their roster changes, but based on what I've seen I think they should be slightly favored against OpTic and C9. But who knows. G2 is in pretty same level as OpTic and C9, but they have improved so much in short time so we don't know what their ceiling is. EMEA could get fucked by restriction though. FPX especially.
I don't know, but Iceland doesn't give visas to Russians. Meaning that G2 won't have a coach when playing in Iceland. It can be quite big problem considering that nukkye just started IGLing and even said that Pipson helps him a lot.
Fnatic loses braveaf, FPX loses both Shao and Suygetsu (biggest loss by far, especially Shao is a beast), G2 loses their head coach Pipson.
he feels like one of the most toxic players in EMEA VCT, but its entertaining at the same time lol
oh look its you Jamppi hater n.1 + Jamppi would 1v5 100T
How it is Jamppi's fault that they don't have proper IGL? He was never supposed to be the IGL when he joined this team. Just picked it up because soulcas and Scream were struggling to call. If that doesn't make you appreciate his dedication then I don't know what will. Originally Jett player starts flexing to multiple agents and also tries his best to IGL. That is the player you want to keep.
Not the best possible IMO, because I still think M3C is EMEA's best or 2nd best team. But Fnatic, FPX (depends what will happen to Shao and Suygetsu) and G2 (most likely) are still good trio.
