you wont know how to counter them, thats the point of making it more competitive. by disallowing people to essentially mold themselves solely around the playstyle of pros by watching them, this makes it slower for skill caps to rapidly increase

why are people so mad about this? imo it makes the game more competitive when you cant definitively rewind every single round and see every player's perspective + individual lineups. makes the game a lot more reliant on you actually using your brain to figure out what's going on

braindead take

what is your point? TSM already qualified

wtf LMAO

being good at analysis =/= being good at coaching

you must be new to esports

since... any esport existed? use your brain man.

you must have poor eyesight. check out the twitch chat for... all of ascent + icebox

child, where is your mother?

he kinda did throw A LOT of rounds against optic and TL

no one would push without tapping bomb though? it would have to be an insane read for surf to just run at him. smart play by fns, you don't know what you're talking about

^^ actually a good take for once

if you've got time, check out M3C vs fnatic from VCT playoffs; they looked like the best team in the world from the depth of strategy and skill that they had to pull from. this is a completely different look

this roster needs more time, is the correct way to say what you're getting at

im happy for nip, but fnatic dont look good. nip are definitely playing better than they have been in BR, but this is only so much of a win considering the lack of cohesion and teamplay from fnatic

considering that vlr is a derivative of hltv, it's always gonna be like this unfortunately. thank god there aren't dozens of threads calling BR fans monkeys anymore... that shit was cancer.
may the better roster win :)

you clearly understand the game

you just said you disagreed with him, then made the same point he made... he just said if a cs pro put in the work, they could prob be at the top of val

are people not allowed to be happy that one of their idols is well? i agree with you regarding what covid is, but you're completely missing out on human psychology...

good shit anderzz

coach kyle is pretty solid as well; Stirling Cooper puts out good general sex/attitude content

p.s. SOARE is most statistically likely to tag letters

well written article. excited to see them at champions, hoping they don't crumble under the pressure. i think if they could win against c9 and optic after their upwards momentum could stopped by both of them, they have a good shot at handling a lan environment

this guy is definitely sexist if a lot of people are saying he is, but saying he is sexist because he called her a horny bitch doesn't make him sexist lmao. i would easily say that about anybody, male or female, if they were being a horndog

im excited to see LOUD on the international stage, they seem like they've really got something special. i wish heat were with them tho... he's just insane

get baited kid

good aim but barely any team play compared to all other regions

Personally I think she has fine where she's at, she isn't viable in Pro Play but is still a good choice in ranked

theres the issue. imo if an agent is only viable in ranked, that agent needs a rework. yoru, reyna, phoenix- all need reworks

glad someone else can see it

^^^^ tgrd look really well coordinated and prepared for every situation, valyns shotcalling is extremely impressive with the pace switchups he's throwing in, but it's far too early to conclusively say c9 is not even the best anymore

cringe

this is such clickbait lmao. there is no explanation here other than "hur dur they didnt swap guns"

https://clips.twitch.tv/SavageEvilMallardWow-pqTfAeOCYyjMIiaI

this was actually such an ugly match to watch. with how bad BBLs icebox looked, im kinda stunned SMB lost. these guys really got some work to do if they even want a chance of making it to masters

their comps are questionable all around the board. stuck in the past meta

where are they popping off lately

doesnt negate my point at all. that reinforces my point, if anything- they clearly dont know how to react to it

damn, 3 months and you're still salty? grow up

chamber, viper, and astra on bind? wut

wildoreo gah damn 24-6, 9-3 half

nah fnatic is p nuts. tactically much more sound than a lot of top EU teams

solid lineup + good intro video, nice

now this is a quality copypasta

1. Doma kinda creepy
2. Yeah she's pretty vain, hugely inflated ego for only being 18. Kinda crazy

cope

‘South North America fans’
Didn’t read

ratio + vk stomped by SEA team + not an envy fan

imo a truly world class team would rebound from that. once and if they can do that, they'll be around the top. just need more time i think

how to prove you're a world-class team:

1. pick up 2nd best player in brazil
2. practice hard
3. come to champions and use cheat cam
4. create huge issue once you're called out for cheating
5. replay match, still lose
6. play decider match and get crushed
7. ????
8. complain about how shit tournament made you bad
9. uhhh????
10. profit (?)
