Yeah overall, Russians are insane at the game. Nats, Chronicle, Something, Jemkin, Shao, Vookashu, Rarga, Suygetsu, Kr1stal, F4ngeer, Demon1, Derke and Cloud

Drop 2 of their top 3 players this tournament? Jing and Davai were playing insane until this last series

Who's Kobe? I only know Bam Adebayo 83 lol

then he shouldn't be playing, rest up tf. An injured player is lowkey sabotaging the team atp, leaf or veqaj stepped away for a stint due to health issues

neg frag for telling a player to not play on an injury, lol yall got it

I'm pretty sure they can get a fill easily, not sure how the talent is in SEA. Surely they can sign a 3 monther with a rank demon or someone in APAC tier 2. Like let the man rest and heal up

then don't play. Not sure if you know basketball, but De'aaron fox played injuried and hurt his team more than helped. If you're injured, take a break and heal up so you can be 100%. Simple as that

Are we like just talking just to talk? No hate to Patman but he was bottom 3 in performance this event.
0.75 for patty, only 2 players worse than him were jitboys and leviathan

The invy vs patman shouldn't even be a discussion rn. Invy had the 2nd highest player rating this event with 1.24
Patman shouldn't replace ANY member of PRX rn, they would have lost to EDG if patman was subbing for anyone that series. Stop it.

patman played like shit this event. How is this comparison still exist, patty was a bottom 3 player this event

patman was a bottom 3 player in this event, feel free to check. Only 2 players below him were jitboys and leviathan

Are we deadass? Davai had a bad series but he has been their best/second best player this tournament. Recency bias goes crazy with yall holy

nice got exposed so we deflecting now lol

The sato and spike speech was hella cute tho. You half right since I swapped to the main stream

"look at this guy he can barely play the game without boaster in his ear micro managing him"
"Do not compare that superteam merchant fraud chronicle to the flex god forsaken"-talking about Chronicle

"so he can get knocked out before playoffs again ?" -hating on Liquid

"100T fix
-shituna
+any ranked player" - obvious

"he can smell them before they even peak him, mooda effect"

+there are literal records but sure, you don't hate on players

dude has 1659 posts hating on players but I'm the loser, ok man you got it

Stop the cap, you act one of the main reasons people hate watch G2 isn't because of Shanks

Actually love watching Lev and Prx play, but...

Just never liked c0m as a player so I'm hate watching the team he's supporting. So go PRX

GGs, bravo LEV. Insane young team, lowkey new dynasty. Still hate c0m tho :)

What happened to the guy man? He had a good series against FUT but he's been missing OP shots and seem so unconfident. Teen SS2 Gohan is feeling like Majin saga Gohan

Dawg, this doesn't even resemble Chinese

~4 mil

You right, I just checked Billibilli.

Val main stream has 26.6 million viewers (but it is a Chinese team vs a very popular team)
Cs2 main stream has 4.2 million viewers

Not biased for either, I play both games. But, damn the cs events are different

The CS2 quarter-finals of G2 vs Spirits has 101k on their main stream and 70k on their biggest streamer (Ohne).
The Val semi-finals of Edg vs Prx has 33k on their main stream and 51k on their biggest streamer (Fns).

Plus the huge stadium of the Cs event is crazy.

About to be Ch2na (Seoul and London soon)

I can hear out some of them,

but like Noman just isn't consistent enough. Brawk's rifle is mid tier and doesn't awp. Rarga... idk his mechanics are insane but dude shrinks at random times (his confidence is kinda a weird neff). WsLeo is too early to judge

Over who? it's top 5, you have to replace 3 others if you think those 3 are better.

Definitely not something or Yay. Both has all 3 aspects of raw aim, something has the best ghost in the game and Yay's sheriff is insane. Both great awpers and riflers.

Marteen and Demon1 mechanically are some of the cleanest.

Hyunmin is the only one you could argue for replacing... and only Davai would qualify in those 3

Yeah fosho, couldn't get everyone. Just off the dome, I think he replaces Leaf in HM

Oh shoot, yeah I did forget about him. I don't rmb his whole repertoire tho. I think he's around where Chron is tho, rifling is amazing but other aspects miss a bit

Considering all guns (sidearms, rifles and op), all time no order.....

-Yay
-Demon1
-Marteen
-Something
-Kangkang (I've seen enough)

HM/Contenders:
-Aspas
-Hyunmin (*Hyunmin law but still too clean)
-Primmie
-Tenz
-D4v41
-f0rsakeN
-t3xture
-Derke
-Leaf

Just missed out: (due to like missing a part in their game.. ie not the best awper or like op crutch)/need more experience
-Zekken
-Alfajer
-Karon
-Less
-Chronicle (could change since he's been awping since prx series)
-Leo
-Kaajak

Being 100% with you, that's the environment I grew up in. That toxicity is what drives certain people, especially in the eastern parts of the world. I can almost be certain that olympic medalists aren't coddled and told ohh nice try after coming up short. They aren't doing it to be dicks, it's as I said tough love to get better. It's all mindset, if you are shaken by banter or toxicity then how will you perform on the stage? When opponents taunt you by actually saying you're shit? As my coach said, "you think they cared you tried your hardest, the only thing they'll remember is the results". If you think the T1 thing is toxic, you have seen nothing yet.

I'll give you another real world example, would you tell to your friends face that theyre fat? My perspective is since I'm a friend and I care about them, I would voice that they're gaining weight and if they need help with that. I just don't believe in sugarcoating things, (same with in game, esports or normal sports, if you played bad, then own it and be better). If the person isn't receptive to it, that's fine then we move on, but I've made my efforts to inform and reach out to them.

Been there, done that. Was told I was trash by teammates and coach, didn't get in my feelings and got in the lab. Played better next time 👍

You act like the team wasn't carried by meteor and numerous clutches from all members. The whole T1 team was negative during the GF. Buzz was crucial in their path to the GF, playing great against EDG and Vit. Even the last map of the GF, he played bad all 4 before that but came through at the end.

Funny coming from a sen fan

He didn't have the facilities for that big man, bro was double negative

Fosho, like I feel they picked on Slyvan in this instance (possibly because he is the youngest *i didnt check, just guessed), but overall the Asian competitive culture is generally toxic but I mean the results/the proof is in the pudding

I get that completely, but if you're heated midgame, would you hold it in til post-game? I mean I've said the same thing to my premier teammates

Idk maybe it's a new gen thing (yes I'm an unc at the ancient age of 26). I've competed in volleyball, badminton, and tennis in HS, as well as coaching the junior volleyball teams. The T1 situation didn't phase me, like that's just competitive spirit? especially in Asia, this is honestly nothing. If it wasn't on cam or on stage, I bet sylvan gets flamed even more.

I get the unorgininal saying that the new gen is soft like Charmin, but honestly, like would yall get offended by buzz or autumn's comments? Like genuinely, I think it's just tough love. Like dude you played like garbonzo beans or had bad comms, so fix up for next time. I've had my coaches ask me if something is going on at home or if I was disabled because I played bad, and guess what? I was like you're right, mb coach and played better next time
