i mean the funny thing is that Mixwell arguably had the best 2022 out of Heretics players
this is what you get when you sign players who had weak 2022
Have to agree, but I'm interested to see if Heretics can improve and apparently Zeek is IGLing so its going to be interesting.
Nah his Raze is really good as well. He was like FPX's best performing player in Champions. He is quite a lot like Victor IMO where he does his job and doesn't have to frag out hard.
dude I'm big Cloud believer and think he is the most underrated player in EMEA, but saying he is better than Crashies for example isn't just valid for now. He is up there, but as I said that is like saying Trent is 2nd best Sova. I would actually take Cloud over Trent, but point stands. He just doesn't have the same track record obviously he played in weaker teams.
Cloud isn't 2nd best Sova(maybe in EMEA actually), but he is still really unknown by many and is really insane. He is like EMEA Trent. Insane Sova, can play anything and always does well.
I actually really like the blue jersey. Overall blue jerseys are kinda sick and reminds me of Mad Lions Worlds 2021 jersey that I really like.
can't really blame him when knowing whats happening in his home country
yeah it isn't great. So light so hard to see anything I feel like
Pacific stage looks really basic I feel like, like really similar to those group stage ones from last year. At least EMEA stage is bit different and unique even if I'm not biggest fan of Valorant stages.
He was also a beast on both Guild rosters and both of those rosters were top teams in EMEA
Pretty much same but Acend for East. I think they will experience diff in high stake games like finals where they actually have to do proper preperations. Feels like they are at times trolling their regular season games, but could be wrong. And Turkey is just hard because they have multiple teams that could take it, but FF looks really promising on paper. Many regions have at least like 2 teams that could take it especially the ones outside of East and Polaris IMO.
RRQ or DFM don't really see any other team going 0-9.
IMO even if KOI or Giants won it wouldn't be a upset or at least not a big one. Both Giants and KOI still have good rosters and especially KOI had really low amount of time to practice before Lock In. But I do think that Fnatic and NAVI will take it today. Fnatic having a sub could affect them, but rest of their roster is just so good.
Reminds to be seen. Its likely just differences in styles and something that will get better as time goes by. Sayf worked just fine with Koldamenta and he even had some great ideas in RedBull Homegrounds while leading. Maybe he is just used to doing calling as well while maybe Redger has always been the strong main voice on Gambit/M3C.
Also I'm pretty sure at the start of this roster some of them said how they all share the same vision and want to be straight honest with each other rather than staying quiet if someone sees something they don't like.
yeah but its nice to see because they looked so down and nice to see Rekkles win some games and Oscarin got so much shit from his early performance
Finland:
Derke
BONECOLD
Jamppi
hoody
+5th H1ber, Famsii, Polvi, Iluri etc depending on how flexible they can be
For what I remember he looked good in tier 2 but his role doesn't really match up to Alfajer's. I still think he will do fine and is supported by amazing team.
Little Big Planet 1 and 2 still my favorites because of nostalgia
DRX, GenG, Talon, PRX and not sure about 5th yet. I don't think T1 looked convincing, but they might be 5th.
Actually kind of funny video and well made ofc
I feel like most of the clips were people either whiffing or getting caught off guard
I played it for like 30 min and refunded because playing with controller felt so awkward atfer almost exclusive playing PC for 4 years. But got used to controller with Jedi Fallen Order so was planning on picking Elden Ring up at some point. Never played other From Software than Bloodborne, but that game was really good.
Usually just 1 or 2 DM. But overall I don't play ranked unless I feel good and relaxed. I never know what game I will be playing that day just go with the feeling. So I usually want to eat, take shower in morning like all basic things that I would do even outside of gaming. I might quickly check some of my saved lineups just before game starts.

True, but hes flexible and if I'm not wrong practiced with Fnatic for a while because they weren't sure of Alfajer's situation (if Mini was talking about Alfajer can't remember)
Yep sad, but I'm also excited of seeing kamyk play
I actually thing the complete opposite. IMO CSGO clips are more impressive than Valorant clips.
mostly shit people if we talk realistically
It is actually really complex. Its so mastered that simple looking grenade throw or molly or positioning may have big impact on how the round will play out. It looks simple, but has a lot of elements. Almost every grenade throw has its meaning and stuff like positioning, spawn positions, timings, boosts etc add so much to pro level play. Like I remember watching G2 vs NaVi(?) Mirage and just the amount of awereness and utlity usage both teams had trying to win mid for their AWP players was insane.
This. VLR positives: smaller community so easier to discuss and you recognize people. HLTV positives: way bigger so more variety in out of game topics just like politics, lifestyle etc threads are fun to read at times.
From the games I've played I think Gekko seems pretty weak. Hes usable, but nothing special. I don't think pros will use him unless there's some crazy tech. Just feels that Gekko is like hybrid of many things, but isn't that strong in single one of them.
Nice for custom games to practice. Also really hope they keep the ability to put console commands so your last granade gets re-thrown in press of a button. Makes checking lineups and especially for popflashes etc so much better. Lineup practicing in Valorant is garbage, but luckily lineups are usually easier there.
CSGO already has like 34 different weapons according to Google compared to Valorant's 17, so that really isn't a problem.
New maps get released all the time because its community driven. And decent amount of those have even been added to competitive mode. There's like 13 maps in active competitive mode pool. Only reason why you see so much of Mirage, Inferno, Nuke, Dust 2 etc is because they are by far the community favorites.
New granades would be cool, but I don't know what they could add without ruining the core mechanics. And smoke changes completely change how they function and will also change how HE granades are used.
and they have multiple characters models for you to buy, but yeah change to the default ones would be cool even if they are iconic models.
Some don't seem to understand that souce 2 update was never supposed to be a completely new game. Its CSGO moved to new engine and most have known that since the rumors started years ago. What we got was more than I expected. Also people mention OW2 all the time, but its the exact same thing. OW2 was not supposed to be a new game, it was an update to OW1. Its just a rebrand to make it more marketable. Also almost no one wanted them to change core CSGO mechanics and they didn't. Same with maps that are some of the most iconic and well received in FPS gaming history. Also switch to Source 2 opens up a lot of new possibilities in the future. Let it be custom maps that are already cool in CSGO to new modes like when they added BR mode in Danger Zone. Also I don't get these engine comparisons when to my understand Source 2(2015) is Valve's newest and Source 1 got released in 2004. Like that is a massive difference.
