I love reduxx as well but ya.. koalas been clearing him since M80

Where are we placing Koalanoob since he’s technically flex but playing a lot of duelist

He doesn’t have to yoru tp dry in Tejo breach meta while he has 0 utility

Go watch NAVI vs GX fracture and say the reason his season was mid was his fault. He said on stream a little while back Ange1 apologized for calling him to his death every single round and I’m sure that was consistent throughout the season.

His daughter is turning 2 soon he said in his stream! He said they’ll come out to watch during Split 1 I’m sure he’s excited about that.

Although it’s 2 series koalas stats look fucking absurd he’s genuinely putting up Aspas numbers. I hope he can keep this up or even close to it and it’s so nice seeing him look like how he was on M80 again.
My goat father oping beast

Get koalanoob and reunite him with John at this point

koalanoob 30 per map vs his old teammates we will be there

It’s definitely an upgrade imo Jonah and koala >>> Xeppa and Zellsis by a decent margin I feel like but all depends how u view it

He’s 2nd in fkpr what’re you even talking about bro and he was top 3 in EMEA/T2 when he played?? On omen too btw

Finally tomorrow my glorious father OP maniac Koalanoob plays in North America

Please show your M80 form so people can finally see your true skill

I don’t think his skill comes from his mechanical talents but decision making individually and for team. Every team he’s been on has praised him for being incredibly vocal and understanding the map close to an IGL level.

I do think mechanically he’s great but not top tier however his OP is 100% one of if not the best in Americas if he’s able to show it even this season depending on roles. I checked his tracker and compared it to some other pros and he’s doing exceptionally well most acts higher than a lot of pros (it’s ranked but clearly his mechanics have to be decent enough to put those numbers up)

Im just a super fan so I just get curious as to why some general people have this thought on him but I appreciate you being nice about the topic and not bashing me like some others haha

I hope we get to see more chamber koala and alym duelist combo soon. Koala and alym are total opposites where Alym is a heavy rifler not great OP and koala is a complete beast with an OP. They should be working so well together but we are yet to see comps like that with those 2. Use the players strengths more on a team that’s clearly struggling imo

100% agree on everything you said however I still don’t get the unnecessary koala non belief. This guy was a gem in t2 and didn’t do terrible on a dysfunctional navi and he clearly showed great glimpses with a Furia looking lost. Alym 100% shouldn’t be benched before split 1 this guys too much of a talent to give up on. Nerve and art are the 2 players that need to be worried if things go south in my opinion. Nerve obviously not igl anymore and art doesn’t want to and said he gets stressed doing it so pretty self explanatory also.

I think koala is full 2nd duelist/smokes permanently now. The only Map he played KJ on was haven and there was a loud leak scrimming them of him omen. Shaw also praised koala like he’s Jesus so I doubt he’ll be the first or second player to go

He looks super comfortable on those roles so should do even better. I’m worried about alym as he really had a stinker off season but he looks incredible on stream so hopefully he can fight the nerves.

Koala has looked like the best player this off season alongside eeiu.. the other 3 guys look concerning to me right now. I think nerve will go if bad results since he’s off IGL.

Koalanoob back in NA baby what a time to be alive

Respectable bro! Won’t convince you I hope he can impress because it’s sad seeing his name get tarnished from that little NAVI stint

He wasn’t out performed by ange1? Nowhere near it. Do you see the comps they ran in Tejo breach how do you expect a duelist to perform with that. Every duelist that goes to NAVI seems to fail and coming from someone that’s watched koalas career since ghost please give him another chance to impress! There’s a reason he gets the opportunities these people see something we can’t.

For example on plat chat Bonkar said he thought koala was igl when he was trialing with M80 he was that good at gathering info and planning

Artzin was impressive on viper and they probably wanna go that route. I assume koala will be smokes/sentinel/double duelist.

Ok understandable then

Hating for no reason man he should be a motivator to people this guy has a family and is still grinding to reach the top.

The worlds about to see the most flexible duelist player available in so excited he’s back in North America.

KOALANOOB FLEX ERA WE WILL BE THERE

Buddy forgot what koala did to OXG and reduxx on M80 just say you’re a hater from the name without saying you’re a hater

He’s not IGL I think it is nerve however I assume he’ll have a huge impact on mid round because of the plat chat podcast where Bonkar said he literally thought koala was the igl he was doing that much for the team on M80. Will be nice to see a vocal trio of him nerve and art this season.

I think he’ll be on a lot of double duelist + chamber duty this season

People and slandering koala classic. Only people that have watched M80 know what he can really do and unfortunately unless he pops off on Furia it’ll always be this stereotype

No nerve is IGL I think with Koalanoob heavy mid rounding.

Based alym + koalanoob + eeiu trio is gonna feed families this year with art and nerve supporting them

He played average in EMEA on a dysfunctional NAVI you could put a top duelist there with the horrific comps they ran and they would do barely better if at all

This guy is still popping off perma first pick pro city and ranked stats absurd. As long as Furia has a good system he will do M80 2024 things easily.

You know ball bro. People need to go rewatch these matches and see what he’s really capable of.

I’m so sad people saw koalanoob on a dysfunctional NAVI and just assume he’s bad now. He was THAT guy in 2023 and 2024 on M80 was the only reason they even had a chance at ascension and qualifying for it (go watch his game vs OXG playoffs and AK lower bracket)

This guys OP is probably the best in Americas and I hope we get to see him on chamber and maybe Yoru double duelist although I think he’ll be an incredible flex for this Furia roster and seeing people like Bonkar praise him for his mid rounding is definitely something to pay attention to.

I’ve been out of the loop past 2-3 days sorry I guess I missed it

Are we not gonna talk about after these eeiu leaks of him potentially coming that Furia is an insane dark horse who could do damage this season??

Acting like Furia won’t be a potential dark horse this year is crazy bro. He’ll do good and then after get on a better team

Holy fuck this roster might actually be insane

Agreed on that

Yeah last year where Sacy was incredibly vocal and you had Tenz who fit the team identity much better than Bang did. (Bang is still a beast though)

Yeah I agree. Sentinel IGL might be hard and we don’t know the details of the other players on their ability to make correct midrounding for John. I feel like if they had more time to practice John initiator it would’ve worked out better

It makes me happy as a Koalanoob glazer that he has way more impact than the eye can show, even did it on duelist which helped John and that’s why M80 looked good.

Maybe SEN it was only Zellsis that kinda had that role outside of John and nobody else was vocal enough to kid round which caused struggles? Because a roster that skilled shouldn’t be struggling midround like this years SEN did

It’s possible Kaplan pushed that stuff onto the SEN roster but he also teamed with John on ghost so surely there would’ve been some type of coordination/knowledge prior to joining no?

I saw a thread on John potentially being a fraud today and I wouldn’t go that far but I am a bit concerned on how impactful his calling really is

https://www.youtube.com/live/bW52yv_jESw?si=QkLFxbsEk4S21mfI 2 hours 49 minutes

Bonkar is talking about when he was going to join M80 he got sent vods and thought Koalanoob was the igl that’s how much he was mid rounding where John didn’t say much at all. Do you think it changed on SEN?

Bro don’t remind me seeing koala break down to the floor destroyed me I want him to be successful man he cares so much

Fair bro. I just saw the post and thought he could be a sick pickup. I even saw his Twitter clips and this guy looks like bc an be the real deal. Would be a sleeper pickup for sure

Yeah I saw those but only Logan would make sense because Artzin is there and Dark3st is a 1 trick flex. Logan’s possible but I think zerona fits better role wise no?

Feels bad for basic though. Guy will for sure have a career in T1 just this year wasn’t the one to do that.

Rocket bullets made the tweet about basic being off the roster due to not understanding English too well and that zerona would be most likely taking the spot.

Artzin (flex)
Koalanoob (smoker/2nd duelist/sentinel)
Alym (duelist)
Nerve (sentinel/smoker)
Zerona (scan initiator)

I don’t know much about Zerona but after checking his vlr and tracker this guy looks like an absolute potential talent and could be a huge addition to this roster if he ends up being that guy. What’re your thoughts?

I love this Furia roster so far especially depending who their 5th is. I feel like it’s such a sleeper and maybe Alym sees something we don’t in the trials because he was trialing with EG also

The post said Basics English wasn’t good enough to keep up with the international roster which is why he’s not on it

The Rocketbullet tweet says that Basic actually is not there and that nerve is at his spot. So it’d be +corte for example

No problem yeah I went to see if I mis typed it also
