Wow.... they didnt stream this game?

Don't be that guy..... Val is just not his game. It is all good.

It also helps that Poiz ( from the outside-in) really enjoys the game...whereas Floppy from moment one, wanted to leave for CSGO. Good luck to floppy on his next move, but this C9 is already so much better than the short-lived Floppy era.

Last checked C9 was up 11- 3.

Edit won 13- 4

V1 Vanity is looking at the C9 score if you need a quick update.

They already look so much better than last Qual....Lets go C9B!

Nice! good looking out! TY

Do we know if anyone is streaming this game?

Team - Gambit

Player - C9 Mitch (He has improved alot)

Agreed!

As a C9B fan... I do care a lot about Andbox (bc of Vice) and SQ (The whole team seems like great ppl in general). So I hope they do well.

This is my hope!

correct answer.... Fun game, but it is overrated.

NRG plays in the NST tonight so I'm curious about how they look!

This.... I think that is the biggest issue with Faze. No one knows what "type" of Faze team will show up. You can get the Babybay/Corey highlight reel Faze or the team that loses to Rank Demons

I like it! And same re: C9B & AndBox....

It feels like the vibe (for fans) around both C9B & AndBox has gone because of the bad result. I wonder if ppl think they are not top teams anymore.

Just curious what everyone thinks are the expectations for some of the teams.

C9B, Andbox - Top4?
T1, SQ - Qualify into the close?
TSM - Rd 16?
Faze - ... IDK to be honest, maybe Rd16?

This! ....This is the problem with Faze.... They don't change and just teabag then lose the match. Corey is so good as well. If Faze doesn't qual i wonder if a big change is coming.

Same....... hoping they bounce back with a strong showing.

.....TBH......Yeah, i did

How well do you think they will do at the next Open Qual?

As for this Qual... it's looking like V1, SEN 100T, and Envy (as the top 4)..so I'm already moving on to the next.

cap

Again, this is not a complaint........ if that was not clear

Just a general moan wishing the C9B players on streaming more..... I get my C9 Val fix watching V1 Vanity, Mang0, Mel, Annie, and Kat. It feels like the C9B team is the only team that doesn't stream at all. Mitch and Floppy once a blue moon but that's it.

I agree, which is why I don't understand the confusion about the C9B hype. True they have not won anything but the ceiling is high for everyone to see. Just like G2

Well said...... But Shaz has been saying this about C9B on his twitch (c9B are overhyped) for a lot of SEN fans have been hating C9B.

This

Honestly, top 5 NA i assume K/D/A.

But I would have done my list differently if this was the top 5 IGL's NA.

As for Shaz himself, he is very good... but I would say Corey has more of an impact on Faze than Shaz has on SEN. I think SEN fall into the problem of everyone on the team is a superstar (Superman on the JL). So I view the best on how they carry their own team. Faze NEED Corey, SEN "can" get away without Shaz. For exp: SEN would still win Iceland if Vanity played for SEN instead of Shaz. Again, Not saying Shaz isn't good (cause he is great) but the impact is not as great as other players on other teams.

I think this is a fair list ^. I would have:

1. SicK
2. TenZ
3. Asuna
4. Leaf
5. Yay
   5b. Corey

This is a horrible take

Agreed, C9B and AndBox

Mang0 fan thus C9B fan

Does anyone know/have the stream of the C9B game?

My name?

YEP!!!

LETS GO C9!!!

hhehehehe...................BAHAHAHAHAHAH

100T: Hiko
C9B: Leaf
C9W: Mel
Faze: Babybay
TSM: Roza
SEN: SicK ( Think he is the best Val Player in the world)
V1: Vanity
Best unsigned player: Gsm VoiD's Viper (if you know, then you know)

Damn right we are going to Berlin... with SEN and (sleeper pick) Andbox!

Xeppaa is the big question mark... since Poiz is gone, he has to step up.

The fact that ppl are picking Faze over C9B now? Faze are fun to watch but their "hold W" method can only go so far. Corery and Babybay are great, don't get me wrong but outside of them Idk if they are a top 5.

I low key see where you get this take. But Mitch has improved on his "it" factor. Tenz was very underwhelming in CsGo as well... but look at him now.

Overrated-
Jamppi, Food, Wardell

Underrated-
Sick, leaf (all of C9B, and Mel from C9W) Andbox Boi

I think Nu_Peri meant that "Faze needs to make changes, are they will fall in the meta"

This! a great IGL would go a long way for Faze

Not really sure if this is a hot take or not but I wonder what other people think... Which is, I don't think Faze Clan is a Top 5 team anymore. With the growth and moves like Andbox, C9B, 100T (hopefully changing their comp) Envy and SEN. I think Faze is on the outside looking in.

This is not to say BabyBay and Corey are not good. They are crazy good, but after them, the team kinda feels like beta Val.

C9 is/will be fine without Tenz. Tenz is on top of the world at the moment. So this can be a win, win for both parties. The only question is "Can SEN even buy him?" .... After this Masters' event, that answer is no Jack won't let Tenz leave for less than a couple mill. Maybe a team like GenG (as a org) can buy Tenz.

Who?

?

Short answer Yes. But they have to start making some noise outside of the Nerd Street and Knights tournaments. They have the skill to be "XSET, ABOX" type of team.
