wo0t is a good flash player because his gameplay makes up for his utility, same way someone like patit3k would make up their gameplay with utility, flex was certainly a role players played, it easy to find countless media and people on vlr mentioning it as such, supposedly its a flash initiator that plays viper + the secondary controller/duelist for the team. that role dosent really seem to exist anymore since team comps have shifted.

he is a flexible player but does not play the ¨flex¨ role anymore,

he plays nothing but omen and sova nowadays croski, he is a flexible player but does not fit the ¨flex¨ role of flash initiator and viper

since double initiator is lowkey dead what even is the ¨flex¨ role anymore?, I can hardly think of three ¨flex¨ players nowadays, like wo0t and maybe patmen?? and dont try telling me alfajer or f0rsakeN are flex players

I know most of you only follow like val and league esports but recently in siege esports there has been a huge scandal with CAG OSAKA (Got second at most recent major) player Blackray (fan favourite too btw) confining and assaulting a man repeatedly for over 3 months. as a kind of newbie is there anything that compares to this?

its not her main job and yet she does it all the time for no reason.

the problem with asking for specificity is that I gave them a specific answer in the previous message that they replied to, pansy sucks at analysis and does it too much, while her co-casters dont. thats my reasoning for mentioning her specifically. I dont see why they would ask about my potential reasoning if they werent implying sexism.

because I believe the analysts are good and knowledgeable and pansy analysis really sucks and yet she continues to analyse thats why I specified her. ask 10 people what you meant by that comment and 9 would say you were implying that I was sexist in some way

cause I hate women yeah that is what you got out of this instead of actually responding

she does play by play very well and yet mid-round does this fuckass analysis like she is actually an analyst when shes clearly not

the problem is they attempt to analyse by just using whos winning to form their opinions on strategic or comp choices instead of making a genuine attempt to break anything down. some casters are just way better at this that others, im not expecting some fuckass TMV breakdown

I hate the way casters dont account for anything but who won a round when analysing, I hate the way they use hindsight as a way to sound intellectual. And I hate how they act like a strat or play was bad when luck or shooting were the primary reason for that strat not working. FUCK PANSY.

ewc clears lock//in, and is just below kickoff masters. this is how it is.

what makes cs2 early major stages different from just a regular qualifier? because they are played at the venue?

we all know about the wo0t and miniboo duelist talk that heretics get but I believe that benjy is weak link in an overall strong team, I love benjy as much as the next guy but when you underperform in every big game (go look) you kinda have to evaluate him as a player. the problem with benjy is although he is very passionate and can heat up easily with his high sens and clutch moments hes is not nearly consistent enough and finds himself taken out of games when hes not feeling it. its fortunate for him that this is kinda covered by the fact he plays sentinel and can get value just from playing the game but I firmly believe you give heretics yetujey or maybe even minny they are as good if not better.

title is cool read it

will be better than champs IMO, all the best AND most deserving teams playing, money on the line means people are ultra passionate looking for paycheck.

If jett is meta in a utility meta it might be a problem but otherwise he will be fine especially because tejo and yoru nerfs dont hinder him really and sunset being back is great for heretics.

Im extremely excited for him to play different comps because either he does well and its good because he beats the allegations and helps g2 continue to play good, or he plays subpar and all these nerds on vlr are proven wrong. I always liked trent as a player but when you play an entire stage on 1 singular character it kinda gets to that point where you need to prove to everyone you are more than just that phase, the fact he had a subpar 2024 dosent really help his case aswell.

just saw this on twitter, information before this had said it would be after toronto.

trent was -20 when it mattered

tejo is nuclear level broken, we have seen time and time again how playing tejo makes okay players world class and that is unhealthy for the game. I saw a lot of discussion recently about players like trent and free1ng are fraudulent, I dont necessarily agree with this sentiment but the points made are reasonable. I feel like this meta staying for toronto will harm its overall expierience and make the tournement feel like it didnt actually show the best team, but who can get the most juice out of tejo.

TLDR
tr0nt is a fraud and thus toronto will be a fraudulent tournament.

they have perfected the double duelist where miniboo gets to play comfort agents (neon, raze, yoru) and wo0t can play jett and Iso while still being able to play tejo and kayo on certain maps. Benjy is very occasionally a top 5 senti and RieNs is arguably a top 3 scan initiator, Boo is a good IGL with kill potential on a given night. I think it might finally be Heretics time, as long as they wont choke to Wolves in groups then they will make the final.

last of the list, rate him so much but drx have underperformed so I had to leave him off.

we will be there when he goes -10 against TL

1. Zekken

2. Miniboo

3. Jemkin

4. Aspas

5. T3xture

hm: Rarga, Marteen, Cryo, Jawgemo, ZmjjKK, Kamo

quit yapping and answer the question youngn

as a resident gamer I play many games and consume content around them a lot, but I have never seemed to enjoy val cc like other games, only ones I like are pro breakdown like airen and teets as they are similar to people from other games like hybear (r6), can anyone recommend me some good content creators to watch cause tbh I got no idea

by gone are the times of m4, no one seems to get baited anymore #makebaitbelievableagain

nepo baby --> ardiis diff --> madrid showcase --> neon goat --> wo0t duelist? --> drop rumours --> human drone --> champs revitalisation --> wo0t duelist??? --> best duelist itw

not two grand finals, 3 if your counting regional and international, 1 international as he didnt compete in shanghai.

Become THE goat, not just in the convo, important distinction

reread unc

what players not currently discussed in the goat conversation could realistically become it with wins in toronto and champs, for example would wo0t become the goat if he mvps both tourneys? what about zekken?

correlation dont equal causation ig

any1 else feel like heretics players dont like miniboo, or atleast he is odd one out, every time I see a video they talk about how much they loved shanghai and disliked champs/madrid, correct me if im wrong but I dont think I have ever seen wo0t play with miniboo on stream ever. am i delusional or is there basis in this

as a "heretics fan" I thought I would be very annoyed and hatewatch TL but them winning is good for both teams, Im very happy cause I was worried that they would underperform and patitek would be out of tier 1

how do we feel about liquid moneyline, odds are really good it just feels to out there

texture actaully got an ace

alot of your favourite players are former t2 duelists, even if you couldnt imagine them on that role

man fuck you why you being a dickhead

agree or disagree?

my friend told me to play with him and was just curious is it a dead game or am i just oblivious

crazy to think less and alfajer are younger than benjyfishy

give me top 10 or 5 somebody please I want to see some opinions

I promise this is not bait but when you have only a single tier 1 team its hard to be called the best region let alone better than apac or emea, obviosly china is weak but I genuinely believe that trace beat nrg or sen at masters.

flair + flag

sacrificial lamb for OUR turkish goats, made cs videos with EVERYONES favourite cs player and major mvp, very passionate and knows that he is not the best but holds himself to a high standard, cant believe people still hate on this guy

saw something about how someone didnt like her cause she didnt dress how they wanted, will try and find it.
