skip to 37:40
aspas pops j knives
holds the viper wall hoping one of the most disciplined in americas(or the world) swings through the viper wall or forgets to cover their left
crosses over into the astra wall without using dash after the viper wall drops
catches a brief glimpse of skuba
pulls his knife out
WALKS BACK INTO SPAWN
NOT TO FLANK
ENTERS THE SITE BEHIND HIS SOVA AND ASTRA (HE WALKED IN THE SITE BEFORE THEY PLANTED FROM MID DOORS)
updrafts onto orange which provides basically no additional angle coverage over his teammates
hovers over astra smoke - good move actually no one is expecting him there and landing that flick, would have probably got a kill if NRG WERE REALLY FUCKING BAD AT POSITIONING
team smokes off spike and goes to tap
as he jump peeks right side of default and gets chip on brawk
he refuses to commit to the kill and backs off
team gets hit by a freight train trying to defuse
he takes an exit and dies

While this highlights Aspas' as well as MIBR's issues, it also makes it evident that this meta is so much more micro than macro dependent. MIBR's comp or plans aren't bad at all on a macro scale, however there's a complete lack of cohesive micro decisions and Aspas fucking insanely baity micro makes it worse

just read it
we might as well hypothesize that the whole NS roster gets replaced by FearX on March 29th after a meteor strikes their headquarters

holds the viper wall hoping one of the most disciplined in americas(or the world) swings through the viper wall or forgets to cover their left

he was waiting for the wall to go down and holding the space; he doesnt peek skuba there cause skuba saw him and is holding the angle so it would just be suicide and man disadvantage on a key round

WALKS BACK INTO SPAWN
NOT TO FLANK
ENTERS THE SITE BEHIND HIS SOVA AND ASTRA (HE WALKED IN THE SITE BEFORE THEY PLANTED FROM MID DOORS)

Changing his angle because the site was astra walled and NRG had double doors; Astra wall was going down and, as you say, he walked in site before and already had taken the space, he didn't need to hold and the jett knive allow him to abuse the angle by jumping without having recoil

updrafts onto orange which provides basically no additional angle coverage over his teammates
hovers over astra smoke - good move actually no one is expecting him there and landing that flick, would have probably got a kill if NRG WERE

You answered the problem yourself 😭 He was trying to fight double doors where NRG had taken space and no one on his team could because it was smoked lol how it doesnt provide angle coverage. he couldnt jump there without going orange first, he didnt have updraft

as he jump peeks right side of default and gets chip on brawk
he refuses to commit to the kill and backs off

Yeah he tried to get the kill to give the team man advantage and held the angle until two of his team died then he left to give spike cover lol

He's proactively trying to get a fight and contact to give advantage every time and yall still blame him somehow lmfao

Such a funny post cause aspas does have brainfart rounds and he chose a pretty okay one lmfao

the angles he checked with the updraft are very exposed, no one will play them, especially on a slow well drilled team like NRG who are going to tuck and play the advantage. i know there are better aspas brainfart rounds but i found this round by chance while watching random vods. him running behind his team just stuck out to me. thanks for actual criticism tho.

It was still a nice try, killing someone there and having DD makes the defuser life way easier since he would be watching front-pyramid and could also watch the choke for spams. He would likely die anyway cause mada was there and he prob wouldnt expect it but it would have a new info. What i think he did wrong was he probably should've backed out to DD-mid to keep the pressure and not have everyone come from the same spot but that might've been a verno call so i have to check out. either way it was way more of a collective problem than a individual one (No one DD, Mazino dying early on the spike, Tex randomly trying to swing site, etc) and NRG played it very well

what i've learned from this whole back and forth is that this meta or the game in general just comes down to few rounds, and those rounds come down to very few decisions. hope MIBR clean this up tho
