That is
kind of a up front with us about the current situation right and he's not a
he's not used to the critique that's been thrown his way but the fact that he
proved that his system that he's implementing with them Falcons it
works but there are no situations on the T side as well he's pulling things
back and giving them that resilience I've been very vocal about like I don't
care about this like this is stuff because there's a list of priorities for
him when he joins the team yes his individual performance isn't at the top
that's less like are if they're gonna lose games there it's not gonna be be
that's not going to be the main reason can shoot a little bit better kill a
bit more people sure is that gonna be the main thing no and then you can see
in some of the why is it playing on the stream is like broken one side
I back in and my stone face whether that's the wrong address on me to during
double of course we're concerned just yet with a reported sleep this night the
other night I'd say that would have gone that would have happened Aurora they
got steamrolled yeah well 9z I just hope and wipe that away forget about it and
remember the highlights of their campaign in Cologne so far that's what max was
doing on the listening you know just kind of reminding them look it's only a
couple of days ago they were taking on the big weeks no ems in you in halls I
I'm curious do they continue to push?
Yeah, bro. I just woke up. Looks like the setup is what's in place. They're gonna have the information sure
Truths that might free up the rotation of Mayan. He's gonna get smoked off long side. Yeah
He's got another one that potentially softens up it's down to 28 but now max is in trouble
He's got a lot of work to do and may and smoked off
I was about to head to head dual
Molder's a plushie now, but he can't control the spray on to Mazzigio poolside
Missed it
And from Mayan
My stream PC also decided to uh
I'm looking like a pressure
Being felt by the AWPer
Plus I find there's nothing they have to save
Goes looking
My stream PC restarted overnight
Flash again
Another try
Co-president uses that CT smoke, it won't last for much longer though
How long they gonna go on for this?
Giving it another go
So far it's worked out for them on these retakes
But not today
Not in round 7
But the Orp has been lost there.
Cobra will pick it up.
As mentioned, they do have enough money
to go for another buy into the next buy.
I'm surprised in the early stages of Inferno
to see them go for that.
Maybe emboldened by the retakes in previous rounds.
But the game plan is quite clear early.
Longos really want to harass this B site.
Looking at Max, the in-game leader
is a little bit of a weakness alongside a Luchov.
Who is there?
High flyer with DGT.
Similar problem that Nincy have on their Dust 2
with their B site.
the spirit exploited to great success all right so there's just a one-round gap
he needs to hold on here or they will lose the balance with a luchov gray on
the open air but he's not expecting a timing and tempo on this
the site so casual stuff from the Mongols
that's your breakfast or breakfast either way into the next so an important
one for Nyanzee more so than almost the way you catch to work with my coffee
It starts towards A this time and they press up in towards halls again banana control being taken once more
But this is where that forward setup is nice what it gives you a bit of a buffer
You're not too concerned with scampering back because you have this frontline and mayhem this time. It's the shot another opening kill
Now the choice of Blitz can we pivot back and we test on A?
How's the game? Not good, but I can't do anything to see the white family for the third time in my life, so all good.
They're just juggling some nades, so he is hanging out.
All good. I'm just trying to do something to show the game what could happen.
Sound cue to the left.
Oh, go swinging Max on the left.
It was so fun to be there.
You just got owned? Okay, just the one for loot job.
B-site open for business once more.
Got all these nades here.
No man, double HE.
Double HE's spotted it. The bomb will be committed by Cobra.
Can he reposition and avoid the follow up?
Looks good for it post plant now. Do you want to throw a look at pennies into this retake?
I could you two to give this a go?
I intended a power position towards new box
Spotted removed my and his counterpart taken down by 910
And DGT looks like that's trying to back away now
No, they have a nice you need a backup. That's Mongols finding five
And again on the round where they give up the only peak this time the trade potential was not there
just the response and saying stubborn with B getting caught off with these
timings nine Z Clouds like my dick face was 690 trying this to the four years and
we need to take start to discuss that based on the five gifts that they can
do he can drop the 8w for the year see the salam with the 53 as well and this
you make for the 15 and 10 makes for another 5 30 seconds to take the 8w
see what comes next and my question is about this B site you know it does seem
like a clear game plan for Mongols is to just keep abusing Max's bombs.
Oh, I read it.
I didn't understand my...
Yeah!
And this one is going to be sample Blitz.
They're here and coming.
The incendiary is there.
He hears.
The sound comes.
He gets caught.
He's going to be open by a wide swing.
Mongols, what we know this team for is shooting hard, right?
If the mantra was ever going to get translated into English, you'd take the dossier from
Mara and his coaching career.
It's shoot.
That's it, right?
It can just be done for one person.
That was my shoot after Cass.
Hold on.
I don't know.
of polish to compete with the world's best but they put their individual prowess on display
and it can be quite stunning when their prediction's still going and some of those bad
mistakes like crumbles and the 30 seconds done we're back into play max will be on an mp9 that's
the low end of the fire they have been able to get rid of this for the rest oh shit there's this
camera thanks to the five shadow you five gifts in a metro on twitch and kick good morning good
Good morning, good morning.
I'm waking up slowly.
Bluechecks been pre-consistently able to generate opening kills for the CT side.
Looks like he's got techno debt to buy.
Any predictions for today's matches?
I need Mongols to win.
That's the difference maker for that big offensive spot.
Who's still in right now?
I need Mongols.
I need Navi.
And I need...
but essentially it's game of
Uhhhhhhh foot
I think we're going to continue or has the conditioning
set in
Right now it's a 2v4 on this side of the map again and Max is just doing it
Max is just doing it
I'm working out a little bit
I've been doing like 5 minutes since I've been up
You can tell where's that follow up can't find it through the boards
B shop will scuttle one away, avoids the main damage for the kill
and B9 doesn't do anything
Finally DGT removing Mazzinho, finishes off the job, puts Cobra into an uncomfortable one
one versus three and he's baited to try and catch DGT on that four now the jump back does
damage pathway of who I saw but not far off but Jin oh gets destroyed denied and destroyed
Mayans next up he's actually making this look winnable he's got 30 seconds he's not in a hurry
the DGT has seven HP this is the Cobra Clutch what if he just left 20 seconds hoping to try
and isolate the ultimate and that's why they've grouped up ruin side oh now you
can't save nine z from what would be quite the condemnation skittish there
from cobra a lot of damage done mara takes the time out off the back of that
he had a good cracker that but you could see he was never really confident it was
always sketchy in the fights and then loser's track of what could have been
oh yeah but good morning guys sorry I stay a little bit longer cuz even though
the night's lost I like to I like to see the the Cup Cup presented so I was
chilling. This is the great point of the half essentially with both teams being
able to accrue loss bonus because of the back and forth nature this is what you
want to see you don't want to see streaky counter track with six or seven
straight this is the natural attrition between the both of them and just
holding on to tight scenarios like these.
Incredible output from Loochoff.
Still got close.
Happy to see his artwork converted apart.
Now he's got something making up to do.
People might remember Austin.
Hard to not feel for players when situations like that
are out of their control.
You do the hard part, you qualify,
and then it gets taken away because of these issues.
now
second wave of you till for this banana control looks lined up
for a chance for nine ten
that span critical max so he gets proactive
he can get all quickly and gets earnin'
well so look at the health on long goals
also i would just like to say holy fuck we better not retry nanderson
it feels like a death sentence with max up close on the mp9
The info off Mazzinho's toes poking out of the way, so not only are you beaten, how
low you've conceded another opening.
Alright, well I'm definitely not buying Mazzinho's toes, I don't even know how long his contract
is.
I guess he's just considering all these bans, does Mazzinho's death?
Oh no.
I'm disappointed.
Sooo sad.
I guess he's just considering all these bans, does Mazzinho's death?
Oh no.
I'm disappointed.
Sooo sad.
tracking down yet if you can't do you see three-quarter smokies ahead of us
the class are flying beautiful oh my god
line's gashes cobra swing as well that's what you want to see from us our
peak think something like round bending from him 30 seconds techno might just
have to hold on to this again somebody broke down all the stats of like every
night's play not just the defensive pairs on the night onto this and find the
opener into the next at least it can give them something like it doesn't just
good points I think it was something like 70% of the critical bad players
happened when he was on the ice and with statistics it's like the worst
in the category this is good stuff the South Americans they've definitely done
enough now to humble the Mongols on their map choice
Can you do a comparison?
Who is Anderson?
Anderson!
I don't know if I have a good person analogy in Counter-Strike,
but it would be a perfect example of what happens when someone puts on a liquid jersey.
As we see, the wreckage that Hwasa left in the middle of the game.
Brokey is actually a great one.
You know you put this high brokeie. No, not ultimate brokeie mouth to mouth right there from DGT
Because he had a much higher high
I can't do it if it's shanky
Yeah, so I'm just planning to give up brokeie right now
Hopefully he kills a few in far between for Mongols in this half so far again
It hasn't cost them in every case, but they've only got two they would love one and around with a broken and batted by
Yeah, yeah, but next we'll resemble something
I posted on my Instagram just a little bit with four pistols and a saved AK
I don't post so much when I go out there just because I'm on my phone in between periods
but that's kind of about it.
And to text my buddy, by my buddy I mean the accountant who sadly couldn't make it to an
emergency point.
I was texting the accountant that we need.
That's how we train ourself for the land right now.
But the setup?
Is he good?
Yeah.
Dave.
I heard the scenario correctly.
Techno just selling a bit of a fake on B.
He'll now hedge back to join the boys.
Spot on top mid. DGT under pressure.
U2's in the air. The fight's on the way.
Gonna be the short side.
Wastow throwing out in sandy areas. Very well timed.
He's even got some info as well on his little jump spot.
Flash from DGT. Could be well timed.
And they're taking the lead here as well.
This is good stuff from 9Z.
This is class counter strike on display.
The other six of the two-month recent core, they say they team met with 126, thank you Matlouk, we're going to get MENZOX16.
Anzi win here, and he gets one slot back. Yeah, but if Mongols wins here, my pickings are safe for one more game and I have to get two more right.
What's really more important here?
I like to see 9z go to flamland 2, they won't make it if they go to playoffs, there's no
way they already might not make it to be honest, they'll probably do inside top 12, so.
TGT's got a lot of work to do.
I cleared him.
Yeah, they witnessed this for sure, not coming to my life, but...
They brought my TGT back to me.
Oh, the Mongols. That's a chaotic Mongol zone right there, bro.
rectifying their mistakes in the previous
a clutch available for max, but he's got to do things quickly
if your back's turned it's an easy pick for cobra's error
flushes him out with the incendiary does manage to make it a 1v2
holy max is leaning in dude
he's leaning in
it's techno the insurance policy hanging out towards the bulk
you
I
You know what we like now.
Come on, Robin!
Stage three coming to a close,
but it's still all died today.
Both teams, the two wins, two losses,
and the first half under our bell on Inferno,
9-Z taking on the Mongols.
Swap side is going to be up to 9Z on the T side now and Mongols already picked up a pistol found themselves six on their attack.
A reminder of the Mongols. They still start so far the best in the major.
Okay.
4 today, 77% win rate, 17 and 5, well now 18 and 5. Let's see if they can find lucky number 19.
It's them strong starts.
That's a lot of info.
Did I just sneeze like 8 times?
I might need to go blow my nose again more.
He's lucky to get away with his life, his techno.
Techno that go should be called and that will also
No water in the espresso machine that grab land. Oh instead see the call ever fails
Small exchange on a fire nation of damage and
Yes, the fight from the biggest truck victim primer. Thank you. He's anticipating cobra. This is what happens even exist in the desert
I'm gonna wear this already on this
Are you still can't even have to use your needs yet?
But still has full banana control can't get pushy because they're down a man just needs to hold on to the line
So
And then only the flashes at least here in Vegas everybody brings in a bunch of shit
That's not indigenous here, and then we're in a bowl. It gets windy or anything. It just circulates and then
So you kind of get everything with a fake. So great
I to give you a little bit of shit pizza
I had to give you a little bit of shit.
Oh no.
He's starting to get...
Ooh, had to get that, but had to get out, man.
This is on air, kid.
Very important.
They'll be in and set up.
There's nothing that Cobra can do about this.
He's smoked off.
Turns tail.
Has he been called off?
What was that?
Again, make it across.
Straight bullet through the smoke, but yeah, you're right.
The bomb will go down uncontestable.
Techno and Emsinho, very late to this.
Techno doesn't have kev.
Cobra and Emsinho could hold onto theirs.
And I'm seeing you now, which is definitely a blow my nose after this one. Let's see if it is okay. She's fine
What a violinist man is I guess doing this time's the biggest issue it's taking away
He's not getting any of the fights. He hoped for
It really is one overstep. This is restraint from 9z ensuring that this pistol goes their way. Yeah, I'm blood man
It's down. Yeah, we need
DGT on to techno finishes one match started to start at this round Cobra on the way out
He's not getting away with his camp. I don't think so. Neither does Waso.
She's some great stuff from the engine room of 9z and this one.
Four opening kills for Lucho, four for DGT. Those are the heaviest hitters in their major campaign
and they're continuing to deliver right now.
It was reminiscent of the first pistol where, you know, the fight just happened on banana
and Mongols just killed four people as they were trying to push down banana on the CT side.
This time they hold their crosses and they get the fights.
It was a nice shot if he gets away.
Yeah.
Different conversation.
Nice ink.
Take the lead.
An aggressive move on the force.
These can be those pesky second round conversions where that pistol was all for naught.
Look at the room.
The T-stairs players are so passive.
They're expecting this.
Max is going to sweep and deal with the push easily.
9-10 is not going to get anything.
Okay, looking good.
Ah, Kwaasau and Max.
Techno winning out onto DGT something.
So with Cobra's error just crowd committing to that clear.
Max has managed to string together the double
that should signal the end of the round.
Azinio long range burst to their head on twice.
So, LeJov had the bomb get spotted and dinked down to 4 HP,
but Techno, he's got four of his own and he's not interested.
I see if he can find himself an upgrade,
but Man is actually staying to contain this with the AK.
So unlikely that Techno is able to get the jump on him
whatsoever and Techno's loud about this.
So that information will be relayed.
about to get blindsided and this is the start that 90 will open all right sorry I feel I feel
a lot better two round gap soon to become three and it feels like I'm supposed to the
seven of them will approach these rounds I want to bludgeon you to death they want to
take the peaks when you're least expecting when you're making money will run you know
some of you guys make money we'll watch a video games at your house and some of you
shit on company time don't get me says
oh she's asked me
i only shit on company time
nine tens AWP is gonna be uh distant memory
we'll see how long it takes before he can get out on the CT side it's been the
most impressive member for me this major campaign he's like in some of these
games he's doing it all at least in the first halves. It's not nuclear right now. Overpass
up next CT side, you'll have an opportunity to do so.
I skipped my morning shift, this shouldn't work.
9z, I'm handling the pressure.
USP is going to try and creep in after this, DGT aware of the possibility, he's going to
throw a nade, and at that point if you don't swing, you'll be able to lose your chance.
Very well, man, of the TGT. Floss are now looking to make a dent.
And his eco.
We'll split across the map, but the face of two is enough to draw the rotation.
And it's a free B bomb site. That smoke.
How many of you guys are clocking in and within the first five minutes taking a shit? Don't lie to me.
The right play at the moment. Long goals. The next round with the guns out. That's where they'll have to.
Especially considering this is their pick, they've got to defend their honor on overpass next.
Seeing them pick four different 15 minutes. Ah, you're made of water. I don't want to be too obvious
What was traditionally
An ancient heavy team has been changing
I'm gonna pretend I'm gonna talk to somebody then
The results that they've been looking for so in search
90 banning it because both teams really play a new versus just 90 had something on record and
Mongols didn't want to take the risk. I highly doubt 90 would have picked it
I think that would have meant that they would have had to have had the balls to go. Oh, okay
Final chance will pick a noob. It's not knowing if Mongols have been working on it
right making a gamble like that with such high stakes is
it's hard to do and it's easy to say on this side because the
Inverse to that is Mongols do leave it through 90 pick it. You know, huh? Well, we didn't actually crack it and you get
At least this way you're going out on maps
You've at least got some officials. Yeah, you buy and doubt your fundamentals and your procedures
Mongols gonna stand out right now and be accounted for on this CT side
We've all under a lot about each other to the chair. Oh
Everybody know what they said
Locking down be you're gonna have to turn towards blitz alongside a techno Cobra will be that rotating rifle up and 10
It's also a rotating piece in the Xenia, the A and cup.
So setting up for a heavy and high-control, they haven't been able to get out of that 910 AWP, so excuse me.
Tom and I suck, but they do, but it was still fun.
Cavalets really give us some deflux.
910 just being left on the line.
Halfway, that's a cheeky one, that is lovely.
Knows the information being relayed by Max, and as he lines up the Molotov, he gets caught by the position of the Orpac Vs.
Oh, that's a big headshot back!
Cobra trying to pick up the slack, swings on in, catches him jumping.
Pressure on Mzinho.
Absolutely right, he's got a lot of work to do on this balcony.
He'll drop down for a lot of flash fields, that pressure being amplified.
Has them support, Tecno and Cobra, and the HE already has their ears ringing.
Swing it, here's DGT, Mzinho set up to succeed, and he defends his side valley.
Damn, is he okay, bro?
Okay, bro.
Oh, man.
910 is he gonna keep swinging for pics?
Take him other man out of the plans over I went straight to bed of the if I will today
I'm gonna get to they release what happened to Carlson
Even honor investment from 9z. I've been able to get the control of half walk
But we felt bad that the team money on the road the title team Curtis and broadcast 10 sweeping back
Yeah, I mean honestly most people say like the even from the night skills map so early. I
I mean, I'm very fortunate. I've been there
For like yeah for every run the nice
Your respects the Lord Stanley
This time a little more controlled with the pace 90
Yeah, I see until they they got the cap and then tell me a little bit Max
They're trying to set up a beast bit as a loose room. I never know what's what I'm saying really
I don't even know I think I'm hockey my whole life. I
So I appreciate just kind of going
As long as I'm not going to go for prices like I'll do
for the double digits now they're heading on into that b-site just blitz
pincer in from ct saves all on you blitz i see all the x-rays yeah he did
immediately returning to their winning ways off of that one ct round from the mongols
just has to be better from everybody there the fact that 9 10 was even committed to sandbag
with y'all when you see the art smoke library so you're assuming an a-rap they did have three
3 players over there to deal with it, but 9-10 wanted to put himself in the play, gets caught, Blitz gets nothing down, technically the same, so please take.
So yeah, I'd say like, let's say 70% of the people stayed.
Yeah, like even though the night's lost.
I'd be able to buy himself an AWP again.
It's hard to tell, because everybody starts shifting around like the Keynes fans that came out, obviously, I'll get next to the glass, so you have a hard time like...
Tell them who's the AWP.
I like everybody in the lower bulls that I could see that was sitting in my section
He will get to retain it, he tells me now he can drop an M4.
I'm 9-10, can buy himself, Cobra drops one, Blitz is gonna operate on MP9.
Web sauce.
I don't recall his second tactical timeout.
Do we see him go back to similar motions from the force buy in the EECA where they want
you as you're setting up I think your learnings from there was
there's no one ready to get focused on the crosshairs
you can just try these kids can shoot as they can
as they can't understand what you might expect
household names for 90 but they're playing like it's
totally fuck yeah max a franchise player with over
I was trapped like it was a god yesterday was just a cherry on top
it's his birthday I've been crashing out the whole fucking
the play of series yeah okay techno will actually be the man to
to stomach the mp9 blitz will get the right to talk cuz i think hammerfin was okay before
they were paired together again but has to begin for the mongols or actually we'll just
roll over them and they'll blink we'll be on overpass you'll be one after another what do you
think's gonna happen there consecutive mages zins as far as the playoffs are concerned maybe they're
banned the orb short side or wait are there are cigarettes fine let's just constantly copying
early down between these guys these guys will definitely just go to cigarettes on the other
Very stubborn in his forward position, especially the Europeans
Again that same art smoke. I know I know he lost yesterday
But if you guys want to know you know you guys are the famous line. What do you have for breakfast?
I know what wonderful has the breakfast. I saw him have it every day at Dallas Fort Worth
That was the European breakfast
Finger on the trigger in time for an opening. Oh
Okay, okay
I'll throw it out with a HE in combination.
Ouch.
I've seen enough.
HE's back now towards A, Cobra.
Oh man.
Just went to rotate.
An AP Smoke at the perfect time.
Mzinha in pit literally has to do it all.
There is no support.
It's a 1v5 on A.
Okay, Mzinha.
You're used to these situations.
Pressure on.
Bodies on your screen.
Multiple bodies charging in.
Mzinha's going to do it all.
Oh, there was a world if he was slightly more adjusted down
the other side of it, what the AKs do?
I get to see him wake up in the morning.
Never had an AK.
I don't want to keep that away.
Yeah, these last couple of rounds, just getting caught.
And I was similar as to how 9Z lost a couple of rounds
on their CT side as well, right?
It was just that press up through banana,
subverting the expectation, taking timings
that they weren't ready for.
You get caught with nades in your hand.
You get caught repositioning.
It took 30 minutes and 45 seconds to say the word food must be a new high
So retaining two guns again. Max. You're literally what your food watcher. They're supposedly at all your food watcher
Some friendly fire going on their opposite. Would you year perk up round on your opponent's pick?
You've got a really tough choice right now a few long goals and the way that they're by pattern was on a T side
They might just shove and you get 3400 into the next round
So the 2900 cash injection for cobra and blitz does allow them to drop two guns
But I see a lot of time here in this situation
Who will just go with the two saved rifles that have some white upgrades on everybody else and then they'll fall by into the next
They want to shove on this one and this is essentially for the map if they don't win this
Sure, they'll get the lost battle. I'm not crying
And I have a really in the game right now. This is one round calm down
T hold
And most the rounds converted for 9z have not been close at all. We're talking one or two casualties
So 9z continuing that class
Not letting the occasion get the better of them today at least so far
Just the timing is the output. It's not there for Mongols right now
I
Know you want to give the three hours of them eat
Honestly dude last two games I haven't eaten anything
I we did eat last night though because we normally what we try to do is we grab some food
Before we go in just run the last thing
You know nice
Yeah, man, and especially that area is like all just like restaurants
right in front of you
they needed that to alleviate a bit of pressure
well anyway, last night I had a chicken-season wrap
chicken bacon wrap
no, no, it wasn't a season wrap, sorry, chicken bacon wrap
one full midwestern last night
that was in a hockey game after all
I don't know
that was three times the season
Test for Cobra's error you can call out sometimes. This is a big fight. He gets caught by man on the jiggles
Amber they keep donating like I'm actually really surprised mongols just has like no concerns for their lives and these
like
There's CC 7 for them. That's why they're just like yeah, I'm scared look like
It's actually crazy when you think about like really think about when you guys see mongols like how they play in some of these scenarios
is removed in
Like how willing they are to just fight by themselves
I don't even I don't think they lack awareness that's the that's like the
That's like the part that
That's my thing, I think they know damn well what they're doing
I think that that's the problem
That's why I don't think they keep giving surprise
The upset by telling to have the bomb burner against spirit will forget about the Aurora game
They played 14 hours after they finished that match. You got to sleep. You got to prep you got to emotionally dump the baggage
But I've been able to do that today
This is comfy. This is class this is confidence building as well for 90 to be able to get proof to themselves that they can shake off that
That bit inform Aurora made. Oh, yes, I was gonna mention they like really
Run Mongols or this one's done. That's what you're up against your map choice
I'm not seeing any signs of that to reality that Mongols live it right now, and no one is hitting
They're 12 kills in this half in total.
They're so light on.
They're supposed to be the experienced ones.
It's 9z, do you expect the pressure to be getting to?
Yeah, the fact that they're handling this today.
I mean, if you think about it, 9z's also been training with some very heavy weights to
get here.
Cuts for nothing if not converted upon
I mean the seeding matters doing they've had a journey
It's gonna be in their openings that have been concerning. It's the fact that they are not shooting hard enough
And some jewels are imminent
Pressure applied towards brackets you got that library side smoke and man is hoping to punish if anyone dares to jig on our CTV
You have to play for me for info top. Me. I understand you have the brackets control
But if you just get executed on the other side of the map, then you're retaking
Hoss out the leg. Yes, the information
They're coming back it's a fake they're gonna come back. Are they gonna flash them though?
on his roost has to find a multiple output 910 good for one back they're leaving me oh my god
there you have to go away i have to turn it into 910 man making a round out of it after all
it's open you can get this bomb planted blitz or we can run him down man's is gonna have to
commit to this the mp9 running at him he should be able to get this frag does so now luchov
there's no idea no but it's not planted for him there may be you can get donations they have no
No idea backs a turn an opportunity for new job
He ran on the bullets Blitz missed the arm shot though
He's got the kit, he picks up the kit now five second to fuse
He just said it, he's gonna buy time
He's gonna have to run with his knife out, get around this corner
He's pumped half an around his face, not a second guess
Yeah, we see another round of play
Blitz is pissed off, kid I do, he's pissed off
Not by any stretch of the imagination a confidence
Oh, man.
I can add one.
I know a good job, Chad.
You take the thing, but, like, I...
That's actually crazy.
I wonder if somebody...
I wonder why he chose the maid though instead of peeking.
How long has it been doing it the hard way throughout their major run?
I don't know.
I'm not going to flame him too hard.
One eight feet nuts.
I'm just going to...
I'm going to use the same technique.
That's a lot.
That's a lot of damage.
He's got full armor.
I fall from the team that was in a major final this time last year.
I'm sure the rocket held down.
I'm going to use the same technique.
You know how insane it would be if they hit harder when you had armor?
I mean stay they've lost their x-factor and
Trying to get it back. You need to show with your ideas. You need to see her down a top banana luchoff
That's a little info player. Yeah, I'm in his in-game leader
Brackets control you to lobbed in
Comparisoner space
It keeps hitting
That's a fire. I believe DTT could have definitely found the headshot. Mazzini. Oh, I think I'm the best player in the world
much room to set up these executes
I
You go to banana on a on inferno he will just
See you on the low HP doesn't want to swing he just wants to have them look in the other way on to cobra or 910
Here we go
It looks like
On their way back in maybe Hwaso goes down to the incendiary
He's got a safe haven now you're staring at a slow grenade and 90 a blade these post plans by the book consistently
Very rare to see them make a misstep once that bomb is ticking in their favor
It's gonna have to be perfect from techno
Yeah
I
Look at a lot better than they did it. I'm telling you, I think I was just tired
I mean they were just tired as fuck
Looking good now
Because right now they look to be getting sent home one step away from the playoffs
I mean dude yesterday, they look so bad minds. He did
They needed the most
They showed up in that best of three trying to reset but sometimes it just like takes all your energy, man
to put himself up in 1-0 in this serious
Martin there was a game that had a
I mean a war in a war is in good form too like I mean
Monkos come back and then we switch sides and I'm not trying to take the win away from the ride
Just being like that big of a drop off from 9-z compared to what's been showing
It could get close again
I guess the best way to describe it is it felt a bit nervous
It felt nervous. It felt a little bit too uncomfortable for both of the teams.
Actually, first half, I think Mongols ran the 6-6.
In my opinion, they should be happy with the half how it went.
They had a clear game plan, which we're going to be discussing later on.
I do think that this game was a pure skirmish.
Yeah, I think the trick is to have a reasonable panel, bro.
How did you see that?
The 45 was exciting. I can't read the shit.
I was too nervous for your taste.
No, I think it was exciting because it is just this very brawly style
style where they all want to be fighting they don't want to give each other too
much space so they do really fight for the map and we know how banana
always works in that regard but that's where you really want to be fighting
but it was I think that the tea side that's what you talked about coming
into the game that is
six rounds on that tea I think that was enough to close it out but once they
turn to CT side you can see the flaws in their individual performance just not
not sure not but i think 910 to me spoke with uh you know i believe in that he's been very important
for the mongrel throughout this major so far so so him not hitting his shots being caught off a
couple of times that was that was the big up for me martin tried to to reframe the first half for me
because i said you know 90 off to a good start mongrel's t-side they come alive what exactly went
down that made it a 66 half it was just a pure game plan towards banana towards b we've had so many
Kills in this part of the map and I just want to be DM to me on Instagram asking if you should be at least
Please just don't you guys to enjoy and like just
Just don't towards this part of the map it starts in the pistol round whenever they get a chance
If you're in here right now, don't you know Mongols were reading it and they were actually, you know ready to be
You know in the stack of three cts
They were still going be they were still happy to do it and they were really taking these rounds
and actually 90 pulled off couple of
I'm not trying to like
If they watch me they're probably already in ACS man
like you don't need to do that to yourself
For us after four hours imagine how easy it is to spot
for 90 if they're getting homesick
especially on banana with an 8
Peter do you think that's the result of the bombs?
Usually Sica's gotta handle
than on the A bomb side
or do you think it's more so a
preparation thing where they localize the weakness
see on that people. They could definitely come down to the factor of preparation but I think it's
also just Marcos trying to keep it a little bit more basic. I think that's why they play the best.
Like I think the Marcos on Inferno, you know, it's not about wanting to be broadly but the more
they, the thing is like, they go a lot torture for that and then they will have a miscineat
trying to work his way somewhere around apartments trying to get a peek out of Boyle and trying to
see some of that mid-control world. But if he doesn't have that much existing that that's,
they just turn their attention to go a little bit more like that. As a pack they lose that,
you know that first kill on the opposite side of the map they turn their attention to B
and that's why they just want to go with their aim style like it's not like Mongolsons never
really been the most tactical team they just want to swing off things and just go in and just
play what they're stringing that has always been their aim but this time around I mean even if
they got six rounds it just wasn't enough to start off. Oh it wasn't enough you know the B round
simulator maybe in the beginning worked out but at some point it's not like I see had a counter
point you know they were facing them heads on as you can see aggressive on banana you know placing
and all been in a good position as well and just the day this random if the
mongolians wanted that you better not be called for you and less work and one
thing we didn't speak about when the side don't you rate me this early in the
morning about mongols having really really strong city side but we didn't
touch on the fact I don't deserve that and that is those pistol rounds that
they're getting out of 11 pistol rounds so far in stage three they won ten of
them on CT side so this is kind of like interesting topic to talk about that
always they get a head start they're getting good economy rolling right this
This time it didn't happen, and look what happened in the server.
9Z actually were able to read the game really well on their T side, and Mongols were just
always like kind of one second away from good rotation.
Alright, so Mongols winning pistol, converting 9Z coming back in the first half, we finished
6-6, we think okay we have a competitive game, it's true game, we can do this game as well.
Round 17 was maybe the round about where you felt the game changed character a little bit.
Yeah, I think this is where, I don't want to say it was final nail in the coffin, but
the way these rounds are structured is actually showing pretty good signs for
90 that they come with a clear plan this is a attempted B-spawner with an easy kill on
techno 4k he actually got a spits from on the long with a flash
I always said the same thing like when I was standing next to Lana I would like win or lose
just like I don't know does this be it? I think Blitz here was the weirdest thing that people try to do
very easy entry for Mayer to come into the site this was one of the like easy rounds on the paper
right not much is happening but the preparation for it and the fact that
they're choosing to do B splits on infernal T side, in such a tense game when their T
side is having little look into the good, it's kind of a good sign. I think this is
like good calls and kind of energetic to see from 90.
For you Peter, was this the wake up call we needed from 90? You know, as we're already
established they were so close against Spirit making it 3-0, they were blown out of the
server yesterday against Aurora, now they come in, they win, Marble's map pick in map
one right here, they look like a team with a bit of confidence again. Could this be another
turning point for 90 in the good direction?
I should hope so for them right because you know now that they turn attention to all parts
That's that's their favorite map
That's the one they pay against the best teams in the world and that's the one they always turn to so I mean now
It's back in back in their hands, but I think they
They seem to be working way better off each other just also just think that individually wise
They've just shown up against the most and that's what you have to do like when you play the mom
Yeah, the foundation is already you can probably look it up
I think we've seen great
Oh, yeah, you probably
This man this game
As opposed to some photos of the foundation already
They're selling season tickets already, dude
It just they dare to play that's what I think that stood up to me in the city side
You know, they dare to go out and try and find the opening try to go out
if you can see well not there the marauder is being converted to the hard rock
go to play at their strengths then you're gonna have a demolished the truck you you you have to go out and be cautious
the problem turns into the duals that did it together and also lucha on back I don't know who the person is
anything bandit or something even though it was a brawl round after round they just stood up and that's that's what
speaks to me that they had the confidence to go up against the models now that's official page as a
I can't believe it.
What pros for a team as big as this at that point?
Ah, a basketball team.
Like an NBA team.
We have a win this game. I think they won the championship twice.
Pretty tough.
It always comes from these kind of...
The problem of that, the name, the like, common core update.
like these tech nerds like this kind of a dead round so so to speak where where
something might happen something might not happen and and they eventually get
into good position and they close it out CD side is where it's being you know
carried throughout there yeah and honestly you're right that the 90 is yet to lose it
but so is Mongols they played it only once against B8 and it was a stomp it was
I believe 13 2 for 13
defeated and this will change the upcoming 45 minutes the monkeys were gonna come in
the cold blooded you know and ready to to get this game going for them and one has a food item
in it you know it's one of the best version of monkeys but I have also to shake that off come
into the second map and play well I'm not really watching the game but I remember some stuff
mantles still have a chance to to win this series and win this map and push it to a third I do I do
I know all passes is 9c strongest map and that's that's where they're turning their tinge to now
And I'm a little bit more for the likes of night. Yeah, that's what I'm saying
It's most likely at my land
It's gonna be pain coming and my VR I'd guess both said they would show up before invited them because we figured it would be them to begin with
You know, they they just always want to pick the fight right and it's more about picking the right
I reached out to all of them privately just to make sure that they do the shot, so I just think they're too high-ranked.
I know swinging all the time, because 9C has just showed up way in a way better from than they have, right?
So, I would love the monks to get a bit of momentum. If they can pick up that pizzerana, that's what they're going to go off, and that's what they really are good at converting, but you also got to have like a plan B.
If you don't actually get that pizzerana, you can get it all over the place.
Recept thank you
Because they always
My plan is
One of those days
to walk you guys through the difference of what we're doing with tickets this time, but
to show you guys the space again in the email.
So you guys are going to get, yeah so my plan is today is to get all that done so that way
you guys basically, because some of you haven't seen the venue so it'll have my old walkthrough
video but I'm gonna explain the tickets. Blue Voss, thanks for the tier 1, thank you. I didn't
see the need to fly out, people didn't spend more money on a walkthrough, nothing really
changed, just the actual ticket size.
That's how Luxor ordered twice as much beer this time, they know it's coming, the chat
add in coming by the way. Well, Mambos win. It's not looking good, man. They had a good
overpass to East Side the other day. But Minesies had a much harder road. They looked a lot
better on Inferno. Mambos is really just such a hard team to... They're just an impossible
I'm very grateful to be here, to have the team I help, I'm very happy with the
The guys, the coach, the analyst, the CEO, it's here with us.
So yeah, a lot of people from Argentina, it's cheering for us
and wait this moment for four years
because our last major was in 2022.
All thanks to you, I appreciate it, I'm trying.
I'm trying to do, hey man,
going from zero land events in my life,
run to two in a year, I'm very proud of that,
I don't should worry.
That was a legendary for South America team
because who never decided as a team from South America,
not Brazil, like Hawaii, Argentina, Chile,
and the rest of South America, qualified for the major.
So yeah, it was historic for all directions.
So yeah, that will be with me all my life.
I think the person who inspires me more,
I will say Fallen and it's the obvious.
Zima, you're in the 25th, thank you.
But I want to say another one and he's with me
in the team right now with Bit, with a legendary player from Brazil and now is our coach again
so yeah I'm very happy to work with him.
I want to achieve a lot of more measures but I will say a playoff measure yeah that's my goal,
my real goal because yeah I want to win a measure but I want to be realistic at the same time so I
They would say, yeah, play of information.
I do love their colors, man.
Like, actually, I don't talk as well.
Nineties ticker on my mouth and will go crazy.
So you usually pick one of those two months, right?
Recently, they've not been as good.
Do you have any feelings about why this why this is?
On Mirage, I think we just changed our positions.
Guys, I'm letting my dog break.
Go on with good comms, is here.
Which positions?
Like...
Is this a secret information, maybe?
It's like on Astana, Cobra, and I changed it.
From T-Side, I'm going to mid, and Cobra's going perhaps.
And like, I was...
No, the Stara Rifer role is kind of changed on Mirage.
And...
That'll suck.
Yeah, so you swapped it back again. Oh, it's on the back. Yeah. So what were you saying?
So barrage is kind of you've changed some positions on and
Yeah, yeah, that's that's because of the changing position on the ancient. I think it's lack of practice maybe yeah, and
Every other teams adapting and the focusing on you as well because they know
because like our playstyle is very easy to read. Okay they just do the same things so they adapt to it so
Yeah, we're trying to figure out and changing our styles
Yeah
I know in the past from experience like sometimes like you have a map you're struggling on right and you focus a lot on the weaker
Map and then your good maps. Yeah, you don't put focus they become weaker. Do you think that maybe happened a little bit as well?
Yeah, like sometimes we
Okay, Nuke was kind of our bad map, but we focused on Nuke for a long time and Nuke is
kind of a carry for us, but at that time we didn't practice Ancient or Mirage, so yeah,
some kind of...
It makes sense.
We went to Lost, so yeah.
Our picking map has become Nuke.
It's weird how that changes, right, the worst map becomes the best map, just like that.
of the Mongols. It was, uh, the
opposite of convincing from the
Mongols in the first 90. Absolutely
demonstrating their prowess.
They've shaken off the wobbles,
and they've looked like the more
I'm going to be popped on a hand.
See it man, running up a heaven smoke.
Backs to block short and all pressure on Cobra.
He's got a lot of work to do,
and he's got a flash in his face.
He's spotted out on the barrels and he's down.
Needed down from Mazzinho.
He's removed, Guaso peak.
Mouchov gonna be looking to call one back.
It's Mazzinho with a double on the output.
Is that enough though?
Is that enough?
DGT's in the server, finds three in response.
Hectic 9-10, slow.
DGT in it to win it.
Looking for the A, she takes it!
Crushes Mongol, Spirits and takes 9-Z, a leap towards the playoffs.
The DGT, the digits, he just gave them the finger right there.
That is one way to kick off your map choice.
T-side overpass, you've got the pistol,
and you just keep compounding that pain.
It's Techno, they didn't leave their chairs.
After map number one, they stayed,
which was practicing nades on this very map.
Techno was shooting some bot, he was in your state as well.
Cobra 9-10 and the coach went outside, bets up.
This one's gonna get away from you damn it quick.
CT side of Mirage, and if you can't bounce back with the force, you're gonna be in a hole.
Sorry guys.
He beaten Boop outside though, so that's a W.
He's played map of the Major so far, to the second least.
This has been one of 9s of these picks.
I close predictions if you didn't get him done, that's on you.
Holy shit there was an ace, what the fuck?
That's impressive how when I'm not at the PC for like a round there's always an ace.
the spots out just the one
so the plenty of shelter and monster smoke available as well
max half at master
half at the dog pee and poop in the house
not very often but
butters sometimes the doxons got like
really just not great
butters
if they try and pivot back to way
and I just have them throw there
very impressed with it
so the dog I just let out never butters
if you don't let him out at like odd times of the morning
You've got 20 seconds that you aren't gonna have to run into the stacked site
No other options. It has to be brute force. Oh, I'm so nervous
Sure centric code this error can't find an ethalyte the blitz can
So peeked out after one techno needed that eight seconds just enough time. Oh
What a save from TGT got down
I don't know.
One to eight frags in the first two rounds,
saving them from that first season.
Desperation there for him, seeing you're thinking,
if I can just deny that plan,
I'm gonna win the round by covering fire.
I denied once more.
This is class.
Seven hours ago, three contours.
Oh yeah, I know, we've had, we've had, yeah.
I'm with you.
Pots of field avoid the sense that it left.
So impressive that they handled that with such poise.
Because they got rumbled and then blocked multiple times, it's easy to just start running back and oh, we're gonna take some space elsewhere
They just went okay has anyone pushed con that means we still have the option someone has to save him all day is
Bodies that the problem now is blitz this man tends to three frustrations in the server with aggression
But they haven't been sticking the landing on these players trying to catch 9z on timings
And these guys are dialed in
Mongols might be going out with a whimper here in Cologne
9c you're gonna be going to a raw and the way that I was discussing this team on day one when we got to sit and take to the
server. Oh, I didn't see his head. Cobra a chance but with the way the aim's been, I'm not gonna go.
We're too much confident so that's why we're gonna sit back but it's still essentially the eco with these light upgrades.
Cobra will have to be more with the AK.
Man, Sweep he should catch him. Yeah, looks good for it.
It's exposed, easy pick-ins, Cobra's error just blocked by man.
Now you know that AK is no longer a threat, so whatever site you've got a huge advantage, the Deagles are going to have to sing.
The senior plays it ready and unable to hit that fast bullet, DGT's been hitting everything.
He's a monster right now.
He is. He has seven and one opening jewels.
On that first map, he's going nine and zero to start off proceedings in this dual-die affair.
On overpass.
All the Mongols it's the opposite of what you just talked about what you wanted
I think again, this is a team right when we had our first
The Mongols don't make it to class, they didn't make a change
But we really know if they're practicing how they're practicing if there's any value in the practice
Cologne last year they came into the event they didn't practice
They still made it to the playoffs, but they were like no, okay
It's just one of the most prestigious events to literally counter strike history, but I guess the Mongols didn't care
It's a major now. It sounds like they're back. I don't know
I might come back to bite them this time round
take now a 910 to lockdown a you've got the mz in your cobra to man set up on
P and then blitz is the rotating piece between the sights the individual
ability in this series has left a lot to be desired mongols a cop in an absolute
paddling right now and and Z look calm I believe it was that for 100% to count
people are surprised about that 9z is playing well at the moment and people are surprised at how
much mongols is just a journey they're getting a lot of support from home the
regional revelations people aren't asking questions as to how minds these
beating mongols people asking questions as to why the mongols look like they're
continuously getting worse and take no plan to their full rotating now back
towards T spawn to start setting up for a B plate and I'd continue to hit Cobras
not because of lack of respect for minds just because we have eyes to be honest
So they're just looking and it's like, what the fuck?
Mazinia is still shooting hard, man.
forward is a test for Kogosari, you have to get that.
Guess the info on Lucho's short side, miss shot from the
off the swings on into his demise, nearly losing out to the
double. Okay. Mongols are on the board.
Azimio is still just an absolute demon.
I've already set the table on the T side. They're already
three rounds.
Making more sad when I need that because like I feel like he
started hitting his fried right as sends there was no longer
on the team.
Like,
not when sends her left but like right before things look like
I think it was really going to up-tech nice.
High-fragger, I think you're right. I think if Mongols loses this, I don't think they can get any stage 3 invites, and then the Americans will get 2.
and then the Americans in general would get as many invites as it did before but with two
stage three and one less stage one.
And then 10, the only warning system with the AWP over towards long, take no jiggling
divider.
So at least they have info nobody's called up con just yet they need to worry about the
stick potentially in the bathrooms there's a flash to announce the presence 910 rattles
off the shot.
Spence it's a work day, buddy get back to work
Continues to pass the way forward so to look like a set up into an AXE jet back
But it's still over towards B
Didn't watch yesterday pick them
Well, I need all my teams to win today. I'm technically still lying
My team that I need to win for my pickings is currently down a map and they don't look like
Okay, let's get out of here.
See you in 20 seconds. They are rotting that clock. It's gonna have to go.
them copra's error and the mesinho to try and find a way back in i kid on these two times against
them and they expect one day perfectly he can toy with them from both of his default plan
they're in so much trouble whasopee's powerful angle seems guaranteed to get a back turn
the top to the head look at this angle they lately lined up for and the ought misses his shot but
time take it away a 10 second diffuse copra's got no hope and now he's got no hands literally no
fucking jams
those with techno or not going to keep them
bathroom they're trying to stuff divider and then the bathroom entrance
towards the site
they get out long nine take only hold them a bay for so long
there's an age only do a little bit of elevation plus that's the difference
maker
and then yeah i thought about it
we were gonna do
5 NA teams, 2 South American teams, and then 1 Asian team, Clive.
We're just worried that if we invite an Asian team, we don't know, like,
it's a $30,000 land and we can't like help or travel like big boys can, so it's...
It's tough to say.
So that's what we didn't do. We didn't want to like create a calm car for our second event.
That is what I wanted to do there.
Also these issues, yeah maybe.
Depend on what Asia team we get. Like when we asked, we actually preemptively asked like this.
Nice
And that's just the story of this game over looks like he's having steps here. They said they definitely be interested
So it's like fun lads. It's a deal. Yeah, I don't know save anyway
Casino half-heartedly trying to put up a fight does get a couple of kills on the way out
But that one will be going down loot shop makes it so
12 days a group playing all boys. Yeah, my land is streamed on my twitch my youtube my cakes
I don't do exclusivity that's who to match
On Z are making them look like minnows
Hmm Z they are doing this in impressive fashion as well. It's I don't want to use the word casual
I don't mean that this is easy for them, right? Everyone is locked in they understand and as the archer level team counter strike on display
Absolutely steamroll though. They're like winning each duel, but this is what I also mean though is I still just like mongols
I said a little cool and 9z shoots hard
Cuz that you really want to give that a go like 9z is doing exactly what mongols would like to do
Have another layer and like even have to adjust in fact ready for it. I don't know
Mongols do have the fifth round basically I feel like 9z is kind of adding another layer
Which is what Mongols would like to do, but they're just not
Doing it for whatever reasons where Mongols call upon they save guns
They asked 910 to give them something in the opening
So whether or not that was an intentional miss monster smoke so that orb could take a pick
It doesn't look nice when the line that he's trying to pick is actually
Yeah, I might have been worse for the Mongols. I think Spongebob is right. I think they did intentionally miss it actually.
He's already... No, no, no. Spongebob is right. I normally don't say people miss Spongebob's intentionally, but no way you're starting to drop monsters to look at his mouth.
But maybe they missed it the wrong way.
starts the backpedal and again Luchov he's belated trade so composed so calm with it
910 are you crazy? He's a crazy person. He's just going walking with his eye to the scope. Luchov's behind the rock
He spots the backpack needs to hit it 910 a
Necessary contribution at this stage in the game. He might catch Cobra with back turned again
They know the DGT anchoring outside B. He's pivoted into this Cobra. Your chance to silence this info is bad
The frag is not. He's terrified
absolutely terrified you see and just backpedaling wiggling and jiggling just
doesn't want to go down doesn't want to give up the DGT away back in the Mongols
will post their second and you need a whole lot more of that before any
confidence what ranks you talking about the Mongols and seeing a third map yeah
this is about recovery of the half here the fact you've already given over five
should be do you play but likely should have been six around like one of the
type around you got you to your son of you humble the money of 9z they've
decided to take the eco even though luchov has 4.9 would say I hope it's not
the loss will get everybody in the range how much damage they've delivered some
great games even though they lost like the two is no slosh but I think now he
gives a better competition and playoffs on a rifle heavy set up but I wouldn't
cut out gt like at all
i think navi should win and i i hope they win
but g2 could absolutely upset navi
holy f*** dude
just play like this mongol just f*** it man don't don't try to do too much just f*** it
Drop the AWP for Mayans.
Run it down, man.
Run it down.
Get that into his hands.
So crazy.
These rounds don't make any sense.
It feels like a fever dream when I see these games.
How many consecutive rounds can be posted on this season?
You just win the rounds.
You're not supposed to.
You look like...
You're not connected on the rounds where you're supposed to be locked in.
Oh, Maginjo.
Yeah, don't feed the bees.
The ASAP is a good one.
A little bit of a limp yesterday, but so fun.
possible for 9z up against the 5nl
12z drift feels off?
I don't know if it feels off, I feel like the teams are really close, it's like, kind of unsettling in a way
Like I'm giving mentality, like mentality the benefit of the doubt, but if I'm using my eyes, I feel like it's, I feel like it's wide open
I feel like it's, like, super wide open
It almost like, like normally I feel like you kind of can have an idea in your head
like how it's gonna go
At least for me, I don't know about y'all, but I feel like
I really don't know, but...
It feels super close, like...
You know, people are gonna say like Spirit because of their Stage 2, but Stage 3 when they played Nainzi, man
What it could have shouldn't, but...
I feel like Nainzi
Looked like the better team that day
But they don't have the experience to get it over the line, which is...
not to me like round number 10 so mongols do withstand they make it three consecutive
looks like luchov and man should be able to get away with their lives here
so you just don't know man it's like i'm watching 90 beat vitality almost beat spirit
i'm watching spirit get through trio here he is just sneaking in trio casuals fuck
so feria gets his trio history today and makes it look like that in a business as usual vitality
is struggling a little bit. Falcons and Navi were just absolutely locked with
horns and there's so many questions like they're not winning in whiz. At least I'm not
I won't say we won. I'm not convinced of anything. You know the whole time I'm
watching the Falcons Navi game and just talking about how I don't trust either team you know.
comical
Very played against bots. I mean you can only play who's in front of you man. You say that that's like
They only did that because other team is tumbled, you know
immediately so it's gonna be a tech nine Mac 10 and a galil to complement the saved AK and the all
It won't punch did not pace needed in this is the orb trundles quickly through. I will say if you did look like good
I just don't trust that
I see if he's actually giving them.
That's the other thing, Aurora dude.
What the fuck?
Like what? This is right, like what the fuck?
Like what the hell?
Well, it was open.
You gotta be careful on that jiggle because it's not looking for ya.
Cobra does beat the shot.
They are allowing the orbs who look for pics, right? This is nice. You're not just having the gun throw the nades
You're around plastic true, but still
That's what but this is what I need to get bathrooms control
Somebody said this major feels off to me. I kind of agree with you, but to me
It's like almost like unsettling that I just have no idea what to expect through the playoffs
Provide that opening kill. I'm just hoping that as intense as it's been in stage three continues when we get to the stage
Do they have their finger on the pulse of where that bomb is going?
Ah, Glyceus just rotated back towards A, just leaving Cobra and Emsinho over towards B on their own here.
They're looking susceptible to this, what could be five man commitment into the B site.
Yeah, the rifles on A are actually playing forward, so this is all on Cobra and Emsinho.
They have to shut this down.
Let's read.
It's gonna have to be another one of these on the B site.
The hold on harder now with a lot more room.
Wow, Mazzinho on the opening, straight into the head of Vaso.
I
Zeno is taxing him so hard on the speedbomb side
He's always getting to very important moments for him Zeno on this seat almost three there
He's the top of the table right now. He's always getting to you man. He's playing. He's absolutely even on furno
He was doing his very best
Hasn't had much in the way of support though and the reminder to everybody that five rounds on the T side
19-0, that is enough to confirm the map and get this done in a two-way fashion.
Thanks to them, it was...
NICE!
I'm going to be the intangibles of that pressure that we've discussed multiple times starting to mount on the CT side.
That's where you might start seeing some mistakes and frustration start to form.
So partial bight.
Another plate.
Likely mounting over towards B.
I'll sound a dg2 or play monster late max and loot shop get connecting a troll man is the late piece on the fate of the smoke
Cobra starting to search and he crumbling now T side of a fast woman telling something on this side of the map just to give some
room it's a lot of mongols finally settled their economy
So maintains the line becomes it's kind of like hitting your head into a brick wall a little bit
Cobra in such a susceptible position
This forward position does problem at first, it's got a lot more than you bargained for,
got too much on display, you can't handle it.
Because of the wound, concedes an M4!
First didn't shot from two spots, ended up last at the end.
He goes working with just half health.
Heaven smoked off.
I'm feeling the pressure now, yeah, Blitz is going to scarf her over to lend a hand.
910, sit 2.
50 seconds, still plenty of time for this.
Now the Heaven smoke.
Nothing in Sendiery to block for another couple of seconds.
These tech nines are gonna flood in
Max with that recovered m4 he's got cobra's weapon he's gonna try and use it against them but Xenia
Continuing to defend his site. He's doing so abruptly. There's the entry from max
910 finding loot shop sure, but there's mad using cobras m4 against them
And it's getting scary is oh my god three kills deep into the round
that bomb taking five already felt quite condemning a sixth on the menu techno and 910 trying to
find a way back in that smoke on site's gonna really get that clock low means just hiding in
the smoke max trying to play time around the monster pipe that's the fight you needed 910
removes the low HP but man did the smoke you need
You think yabby comes from the school of max or max comes from the school yabby or he thinks they actually go to rival high schools
He will be found that I think we trade that out for a rifle
More conditioning keeps
Rival, Rival!
Is it because he's blinded or what, Max? Max is blinded or what, aye?
I've never heard this!
He's fucking blind!
the scope he knows he's in contact what's up nine tents not ready for this
the first time i've ever heard this into the four on four
territory being gained was so into techno an important jewel he nails it actually i can't
tell if i'm being creeped gonna have to go for a gamble right now if you're the mongols do you
believe it's gonna be a lot of time to play my list i can't tell the shit the bomb is long the
the commitment feels certain
No, I'm not getting grief. Okay. I'm just surprised. I've never heard this
Oh, shit, hearing the steps on long from Mayan informs his teammate. He's coming over now
In an instant headshot these guys are so sharp 9z shooting
I've got a point to prove and a date with the playoffs cobra's got two of the double spray
Oh, what a hold from Cobra.
Alright, that was a nice pullback from Muggles.
It's a nice decision to make here.
Somebody posted.
That's interesting. I've literally never...
For all the...
The comments about his posture, that is...
Because we watched a lot of Nines yet. I don't think anyone has ever mentioned that.
That's kind of interesting. That's cool, I guess.
cool, not that he's blinding an eye, or has a condition that he's able to still play while
he has that.
I'll never forget my, I don't know if it was like a condition of some kind or something
or what happened exactly, but my dad was blinding an eye.
Or legally blind.
Like he wasn't actually blind, but basically my dad was a Cyclops.
His, I think it was his left eye.
Just saw so well that his right eye just stopped doing shit.
Like, nah, it didn't go cross-eyed, nothing like that.
Just literally his left eye was just doing all the work and his right eye was just...
Right, uh, no, no, his left eye would have been dark. His right eye was carrying him.
Oh shit, there it goes. Somebody in the kickchat actually gave a full-on quote what Max said.
With my left eye, I practically have the illusion the right one, which is the one I see a bit
better with, once it gets tired on me, it becomes hard for me to play at my best.
But I don't know how I'm going to say this, these guys care about talking this with the
fuck.
And then...
There you go.
Yeah, I don't know how the fuck I'm just gonna unsee it then.
you
to support
the senior contract the head initially finding
the star needs a
my god
my absolute god
you let my god die
just ran out heaven and mulled him
what the fuck
now just copra's error
the rookie
up against three there's almost no chance
for him in this one
asshole's holding him at rage just get him off
the defuse last one bullet would do it
He's still holding it. Oh my just sits by idle
Get busy by Russell big nice. He will take pistol
I guess he was hoping they weren't sticking there. I don't know
Right around the corner and they're gonna take this one in to a fashion
I'm going down is gonna look at a whole juice. You got him off of it. Oh, it's hoping he did
So the unaware is the possibility and loot shelf
I think what he was hoping for there is since he was running on ammo after he got the kill and cross
I think he was hoping he could scare the diffuser to get off cowboy mode
No, I think
That is what I'm trying to make sense
That's it, 4HP. He needs to gamble a little bit.
The real issue is, is how does Luchov run out of heaven, kill Mazzigno Piz first, then get a kill on the Blitz after the fact as well?
That's that! You guys are focused on the wrong thing in that round.
Him losing a 1v3 audience 4HP, maybe that's where, you know?
don't understand their approach yeah a philosophy to counter strike but also the
way that they have to be ran out and come in the first way or sometimes not
that's the point how they just you know I max is always type in the third round I
don't know I think what I made the rounds if you was typing the game to start
you off so I bet you he's got like a thick round and into two he's probably I
mean get ripped something I like to do I don't do it every round but something
that's kind of just when you got the info of techno shoulder he's like me to
fidget with your hands it's fun to take clear and console and just watch it
disappear that's what I do I hit console key type clear watch it all get
cleaned up it's nice maybe he's recording it you don't really need to
There's a tight take on me anymore. It's built into the scoreboard, so...
Now, people don't even know about that. That's a long trip.
You know what's out there back there?
That's in my day, every single round. You have to type how much money you have, and nobody can see it, so you can just slide.
Like, your teammate could ask you for a drop chat and you could just tell them, I don't have enough, and you could have 16k.
Maybe a track of their comment. Well, that's what I'm saying. You don't have to. It's on the scoreboard, dude.
You literally can see the round bonus of every single...
Oh, everything.
I'll build this for this.
I think this is very nice to see from a counter strike match perspective. My biggest concern today for 9C coming into this was the moment being too much for them.
They played tonight the run that they've had
They played in the front of a pretty good crowd and it's not a very proud favorite
Who are seasoned and they've already played here in the last few and they played vitality. I just don't know
Let me call in a bit of a home
Made history back at Shanghai 2024. Maybe that was the only way they could build a storyline today
But I'm glad that's a pretty weak one that run looks like it's gonna be coming to its close today
I know it's to make the major playoffs, but I just mean that should happen in a moment's time
in terms of everybody they've played today or the state this is
probably the their easiest opponent by far and
in terms of like nerves of being in front of a small crowd or
they played in the son of a home crowd like favorite so
kind of strikes a game of halves right we're not talking 50 I think they're
I don't think this will do it especially on a map like overpass
I don't even think that's, I mean maybe if it matters more but.
Look at the wrong way
The scalps they've taken along the way the CS go score line against spirit every map in the three-map series going
16-something they could have taken that every day of the week
Enjoyable for us to watch a nightmare for them to have to deal with.
Did you see Spirit afterwards? They looked exhausted.
Magix was shell-shocked.
50 seconds left on the clock. They will sweep down through Connect Up.
Heaps of Util to work with.
Wasau playing a retake position from Heaven.
So again, the bomb could be conceded, but 9-Z playing by the book and the more Max moves,
the quicker he could be on the tail of this.
Techno and Blitz are still clearing out shortwater.
And then they have to worry about all the pokey holes
on this B site.
Huge from Max.
This timing looks almost perfect.
He's one second off the trail.
They have no idea.
He's got heaven occupied by Wasso as well.
Blitz, triangulates their position now, Max.
Surely gonna have their backs turned.
Yeah, Blitz was not ready.
Get Techno off the bomb.
Let's Max to close it down.
You heard him in the interview.
That's why I take them, you guys are looking good, you deserve it.
First Mara time out.
It's partial by territory.
Getting a few moments more to understand the reality of this situation.
I discussed the Mongols proficiency in pistols.
The Miracast was in Mongols.
It's at the top of the major so far.
So, they're just having to describe a team that was top five.
actually I think they hit one at one point maybe for sure two and now they're
gonna be not making major playoffs
this one right here just not ready for the move and I still love the fact that 90 are making the moves in the chaos and then playing the
percentages when they have that man advantage
yeah that's what I'm saying they were number one right
game and we are seeing 90 truly have to start in a minute where it's about here
continues the accessory earlier basically like they're not your friend
brother gonna tell how it is the dance into the night when it don't find you
but they're not gonna sit there and like lying partial they've shoves no
surprise have to do with very little utility as well so I guess brute force
hope you can win some jewels may and is primed and ready if you swing without
that flashbang.
Taka with the 100 and very too much recent things he wanted to say to me.
He knows how good our com they're just going to try and execute quickly into A before they
can be out rotated.
A test for me.
Time for them to do this try out of all strats and what the rest of you know it is.
Yeah.
This is where he can start to track him up.
Jump spotted blitz.
Eyes on the prize blocked on toilets.
Oh what a shot onto Masino.
That kind of made my day that somebody said Malju used to play on Maldives.
It was a great series of taco.
Oh.
to catch TGT but not the headshot he needed it all falls onto the shoulders of techno or this is
double digits for now he's gonna tell the time to speak early before he gets double swung
for latin america to keep the sheet clean on that CT side of angle just hold on he just walked right
into it five consecutive nothing from the monies zanero leis thanks for your four month resub and
thanks for seven six months of time appreciate you i bought them something on the buy with the
plan yes looking rough man we're just starting to tell the story was a run from mongols on that
CT side to give them the lion share of rounds on that first half of plate
DGT
That bomb lose you're surrounded the smokes up fading in
Peaks on me and gets deleted
So bronze for it is bronze when it is boys any resistance to this if you're the Mongols
and
someone else has to step up in his place in his stead if you want to get anything on
the street side here
so three strong on b who's gonna be hard to break from on golf
this dgt you gotta get past
good luck with that
he's a man determined
he's a man on a mission
and that mission is playoff so the man is out may and she is looking
Oh
A bullet stray bullet on the movement and he's dead to me job
It's so close they could practically taste it DGT and Lucho with 41 frags combined
It's not in the flashy fashion. It's not in the back and forth affair that was that spirit series
That's not against it counter strikes best player you've got right now the Mongols
We're looking like a shadow of the team, but once were 2026.
It hasn't brought them the same success as 2025.
And they are just two rounds away from elimination.
And one team lives down there in it to win it.
The other is here just to make up the numbers on the final day of play.
So he feels that way, doesn't it?
You can see that monster smoke.
I don't feel that's going to cost them at all. Maybe a little bit more pressure, short.
I haven't dropped a single round on their CT campaign. If it was right, five is enough.
More than enough. You can see the paranoia in this T-side as well. Every nook, every
cranny could be occupied with a very hard hitting 90 player
if anyone could do it as Anderson caster now he does yeah he just um he was getting a lot less
work at one point and then he's been getting more opportunities again or he's gonna do more
It's a messy one.
It's absolutely nothing with wasp on to 910.
We're looking like 12.
What have you got, Mongols?
No techno.
I can't shoot right now, bro.
You need copers there to find something, a little chip.
I do look so strong.
I'm going to rotate back to Abe.
Let's just get a try it.
OK, with 25 seconds, you can pull it off.
But you have to get past the GT.
Oh my god.
They know what's up.
They're ahead of the play.
DGT's on high alert.
He's ready for techno and catches it and let you get to the site.
God, damn, 10 seconds.
You were a flawless CT side continues for 90.
Well played. Well played.
That is easy to see there.
And he is a demon for that angle.
I want history for that region.
Him never leaving to go be and simultaneous.
They just looking for this alert.
Any move you try to make, Mongols, it's all in vain.
That is how this one's going to end.
That is a motherfucker that's locked in.
It's never a good sign in the Mongols camp
The captain in game leader like obviously he gets locked in when his teammates are saying it's kind of fizzling out be
But he was there the whole time like
Looks to be capped off right here right now with a playoff
I do not get fucked the pickings like 90 deserves to be in class. I want the best team in class
Mongols don't deserve it. I don't care if I got them going through
8
For it to be the lancest arena of all a cologne major
And I don't want it. I don't want it here. This is gonna get uncomfortable for you
I do not want to see him playing like this one in the playoffs and we just see what we need you know, you know what I mean?
So you've got your pick look at this rotation immediately
They got an opening kill and they start to rotate back around
DJT's inserted himself in the middle of the play here and he's not right
I want my pickaxe to do well, but they walk into his domain now, bro
I'm facing a different you and I are not the same
You're chasing a hive getting the coin to tell your friends that you got a better coin than them
I'm facing one more overtime into the open. We're not the same
Grounds for a little excitement for Mongols to get a round on this tea side, but what's having none of it?
cracks the sculler 910
Damage on to Mazzino cowering towards the jail
oh it is- whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
it's all good to the msino
cobra clearly shaking
can't seem to find lethality but that is the first mongols round
it has to be five consecutive
what the fuck was going on there man
what the fuck is going on
that's a- I call that a one tap
work hard for that, but I'd get fortunate for that.
Sort of based on the 13 month promise that I gave you.
That's a one tap right there.
I'm trying to wield the Mongols into something
to give us a competitive series to sign off the day,
but the writing, it's on the wall.
That boom and foot gagging to get going.
The next series to play.
Is that it?
Yeah, you're.
Everything from 9z to shut it down this time. No, she's in the bite apartment. They won't be for this one
They won't be for the next
Work smoke B site ask questions, but if they watch the demo, they know exactly what Mongols get up to with these
To call this back to dig this out assuming no rolling schedule it's not impossible
I
Shouldn't be no like it might require a miracle for the Mongols
But it's gonna be this one default by the book I
Mean honestly, it's gonna be pretty much starting right on time
to watch through his fingers as his team try and extend play
What the shiiiit?
They're pulled. They're the ones who are meant to be detected at the time of the T-Side
I'd like to vote as a fan for a tech puzzle, check the fucking PC
What the fuck is that?
And you have 45 seconds to remedy it
Starting to feel like a certain teammate and can make it so with a shot like that removing Blitz
Now writhing in agony at the Mongols. They've lost their captain. They're losing this round and they will lose their street
at the hands of 9z luchov locks it in and history being written before eyes just
no time to see well done well done well
well fucking the fairies man
sure digi teams be there before but that's a big one for all five what a birthday gift for max
look at the celebration there the emotions is the good kind today will not be a
Yeah, that's actually so well deserved
Her team that beat my telly played spirit that fucking close if they
Don't know imagine that a war game was the last thing we saw from them that would have been so fucking sad dude
The mongols did not come today
They were not putting their best full forward
It was not the counter strike that we know this team for and they have gone out with a whimper
only Monty and Bay as Scalps to resumé not to the ground of the 19th of the year.
Her motions, what a game.
For the first time in four majors the Mongols will not be part of the playoff
and it's at the cost of 90 coming into this game and as Chad said it
blowing him out of the server. Wimper going the way of 9C. I do feel like there was no doubt in this game.
I do feel 9C were by far the better team, but I can't help to feel a little bit disappointed on behalf of the Mongols as well.
I thought it was gonna be more competitive, but Martin, let's be honest, 9C tonight, today, they deserved it.
We were painting the picture of a closed game of a head-on head-to-head tool that is kind of all about individuals.
I don't know what happens in that scene. I don't know. Like, outside looks even worse.
Yeah, like, I mean, this just looks like they're getting progressively worse, but I don't know what the fuck is. I don't know what's changed. I don't know.
was a bit back and forth overpass I think the scoreline was only close because they had to start
on the T side overall it was a dominant performance. I mean I said this yesterday guys so I'm gonna be
trying at least be consistent I still stand by this like yeah 7C is better than Koga 0.
These T sides especially are dog shit like I don't care if Zenz is better like
I'm like, what will Nancy bring to the table?
It's fine, it's fine when you're like,
when you're on the come up and like,
you're just shooting hard,
and you're doing your thing and like it's working,
when people start to get used to it
and then we're fire targets a little bit weaker.
To the playoff and second of all, congratulations
with your birthday.
Yeah, yes, yes, yes.
I'm very happy because today is my birthday.
Hey, happy birthday.
Are you getting older?
Oh no, he's done.
It's been six years in NIC and it's the first major playoff so yeah for me it's a dream coming true.
I just want to say it must be the best day ever, birthday, major playoff you know your team dominates the
mongers as well. I could join so far. Try to to walk through what you're feeling right now because
it must be one of those days that you probably never will forget. Yes yes yes it's one of the
best days of my life. For me Counter Strike is my life. I played this game when I was a kid.
My brother showed me the Counter Strike online. So yeah, 20 years after I am here playing
Major playoffs, it's my best day of my life. Yeah, in that case, thanks to your brother.
It's a story of many pro players that all the brother introduces us to the game.
That's a nice case for the partner, thank you.
I was a little bit on the journey that you've had this major so far.
One week before the major, losing to Sharks.
Now you're here in the playoffs, beating the best team in the world, Vitality.
And then close game against Spirit. Now this one against Mongols.
How is the team growing in your opinion?
How are you stepping forward with every day passing by on this major?
How are you evolving?
Yeah, I think this team learned very fast, like we have problems during the year, but
we talk a lot, we discuss the things and we learn very fast and that's one important
thing in the team.
So yeah, my guys hear me a lot, and that gives me confidence for telling them how we're going
to play, and at the same time, I am a captain who listens to the guys.
So yeah, beating Vitality, it was like a dream again, because it's not the first time, and
And then we lost against Spirit, it was a close match, we had it in our hands but we can't finish.
And yesterday we can't show all CS or BCS because we were tired and maybe a little bit frustrated.
And yeah, we discussed a lot yesterday to show up the best counter-strike we can today and yeah, I think we did.
Now you've shown that you can play against the best teams in the world, you can even
beat the best team in the world and now you make it to top 8, you have a quarter final
coming up. What is your expectations going to the players now? Can anything happen if
you just show up on the right day?
Yeah, the expectation is to play the best counter strike we can because when we are
playing in that mood we can beat anyone but when we are not in a good day we can lost
to anyone so yeah we are looking for consistency in that way and yeah maybe
now we can dream. I also want to just ask you about today's matchup because you
know I think there was a lot of mental thing going on in you guys said that
you you had so many chances of qualifying against Spirits or what was the
most important thing do you think that was talked about coming into this
match today what was the most important thing that your coach maybe said to you
Yeah, I think it's the energy. Like yesterday we didn't have the energy up and for today
we discussed we need to communicate everything like what I am doing, but I am watching everything.
So yeah, I think that part of the game, the communication activates us to take better
decisions and play as a team.
Max, I have to ask you as well, one of the big, I wouldn't necessarily say surprises,
but one of the players we have looked at a lot and enjoyed watching players is Lutschoff.
From your point of view, as a teammate of his and as a leader for him as well, can you
give us a few words on what he brings to the server outside of the obvious, which is a
lot of firepower?
Yeah, he's a very confident guy, so he trusts a lot on himself.
So yeah, I trust on him too and I try to give more confidence to him because when he's
in the right mood, he can beat anyone and be the Malaysian every player in the world.
So yeah, we will as a team try to give confidence to him.
Now Max, obviously there's still two games left today so we don't know exactly who you're
going to play in the quarterfinal just yet, but I can tell you that if foot beat
bedroom and if now we beat G2 you will be facing off Aurora in a potential
quarterfinal at a major player of Aurora that you played yesterday I believe
it didn't go too well. How does that sound for you? A rematch against Aurora in a
quarterfinal? Is that something you'd like? Yeah yeah yeah we would like because
yeah the Aurora guys it's very nice people but at the same time we won the
the rematch because yesterday we we can show up and yeah yeah I think it will be cool yeah cool
you have some time to rest now obviously get ready for the quarterfinal once more congratulations
making the playoff kill the view I don't do profile sign too many man to a loosing side we
had trace catching up with the side of mongols I'm sorry loosing kill the view do you want me to
refund that if you need me to I don't mind bro I don't yeah I don't sign profile sign
It was 9z in the Mongols and in this moment it is the Mongols that have been eliminated from the 2020-26.
Right out of the gate, can you tell me about some of the emotions you're having right now in this moment?
I don't know what to say.
So it's been so tough and hard for us.
And we are almost qualified every major playoffs in recent majors.
So this is that
Didn't qualify this year this time so I'm kind of disappointed in myself also in front of my team because
they
They were
Fought to until their last
So I'm proud of my team
Let's talk about some game specific stuff here 13-8 on Inferno
You guys get a 6-6 first half and you lose that second pistol and then I asked the question
or they I think it's not a Mongol say look Mongols went out in Budapest fifth
through eight I hope you guys had a run towards vitality in Austin and a second
place you go out here in the third stage is there anything you want to say on
behalf of the Mongols so is there anything you want to say on behalf of the
Mongols obviously I'm proud of my the part of this impressive organization the
national organizations. So this time we were not enough yet to qualify the playoffs. We
tried our best and it didn't work out. We were also leading the game, winning the game
at, how to say that, we were winning the game's maps and we lost them somehow and got
come back many times in recent tournaments. Yeah, that's so disappointing for me also.
I was so bad in recently in the season, so I don't know. I don't have to say anything.
I understand. Anything in the same Mongolian for I'll let you go.
Thank you commiserations and we'll see you soon.
Okay, thank you.
Unfortunately, not the mages or the mages would have hoped for this for the first time
in four mages.
the
but
Come on
Come on buddy. Hey
I'm looking at the mainstream
see
Yeah, watch this buddy. Don't care
You know it's a you just tell from from the game
one of them will make the playoff and for you to find out well you have to stay
on and hang around we jump into a quick break once we're back it's bit boom
taking on food
you don't stand profiles why is it there it's a channel point option I don't
know I said I don't do it for money
alright bro what is going on with the feed stop eating the feed
I did honestly fuckers hold on I'm gonna I'm gonna put on the main stream for a
second so I can actually piss without this breaking okay yeah this is
I got a piece. I'll be back one sec.
I forgot add okay now they're back yeah so we're here to get this one underway for
that big day in the office a lot of Counter-Strike played for you guys up to this point we're
looking at 19 maps, 11 series, 387 rounds at the Cologne Major so far. Are you tired?
Especially me, not really. It was an enjoyable spending of time, I would say. It's always nice
when you're on the biggest tournament of the season and you're going that far. Even we are
playing not our lineup. So I think that's feel great. You started stage one demolishing the
in the gaming gladiators, and that was two weeks ago.
What are some of the ups and downs
that Betboom has had here in Cologne?
I think we are gaining experience game by game.
First stage was obviously much harder
because we are facing the best teams in the world.
Maybe it's some lack of our map pool at some point,
but we are trying our best, I don't know.
Aside from the beating spirit,
Gabe, you guys have Betboom met expectations for yourselves in Cologne?
I would say we don't have expectations at all because we are not playing in our lineup.
So we are just trying our best.
I think everyone would be
feel great about our stage three, even if we're going to lose today, it's OK.
That's exactly what I want to ask this very last question.
Stage three, how hard is stage three compared to two, one, anywhere else?
Why is it that you guys have come here and dropped seven maps out of those five?
Obviously, it's much harder because you are facing the best teams in the world.
But especially for me, it's the best experience I ever had.
I'm playing on the arena with the viewers versus best teams, even beating them.
So that feels great.
Well, good luck, man. I hope the best for you today.
Thank you.
The team is foot, the player is
longs and most importantly today is
the day of days longs.
I know that this has been a long time
in the making, so let's get right down
to the nitty gritty of how important it is
at a 2-2 game playing bad boom today.
Well, I didn't see the last word.
How important is it today?
Oh, to play this game, I mean, it's very
important for us to be honest, especially
because we came back from 0-2.
And to be honest, it was a bit funny,
It's funny, right? Because we wanted to go to the 0 on stage 2. We thought we'd play worse teams, but in the end we ended up playing Vitality and G2, which in the end, they're like one of the best teams in this stage, right?
They have very good players, experienced players. And I think, yeah, we're grateful to be here. We are grateful we could keep up the emotions and push up until the stage, actually.
You guys have played G2 already. You beat them 2-1 and then they get you this time around. They bring it right back to you in losing that game.
So you guys play ancient nuke mirage.
Let me just ask the question about beating mouths.
Did that feel good to you longs?
Did you enjoy that?
I mean, I think it's, I always enjoyed the bonus.
It might sound crazy, but for me,
every team who beat me in Crucianapoca,
who kind of put me a step back,
I will always look for them and I'll always start to beat them
because that Crucianapoca, for me,
still to this day, it stays in my head.
Yeah, it's full rent-free, full rent-free.
Well, look, man, seven series, 17 maps, 356 rounds
played here in Cologne for foot.
You're the youngest team at this major.
Are you gonna do it today and how?
I don't want to say we're gonna do it
and how we're gonna do it
because usually when I say this kind of stuff,
I jinx it.
So we just take it step by step,
round by round, we hype each other up,
we keep the comps up,
we will fight every round as we did before.
And yeah, we'll see how it goes.
You want to say anything to him?
Just keep watching, guys.
Keep watching.
Get to be fun.
That's foot versus bedroom.
The Intel Extreme Masters Colonial Major 2026
is brought to you by ESL at partnership with Intel.
Acer Predator DHL.
No where to run, no where to hide, it's Langsess or bust at the Intel Extreme Masters Cologne
Major 2026, only one of these two squads can follow in the footsteps of 90 earlier on
today.
From Betboom in one corner, they started all the way back in stage one and they are now
staring at their final lifeline for foot in the other corner, they arrive to Cologne
as the youngest squad to be here, now have the opportunity to go where they have never
the top eight at a major playoff.
My name is Ferris Beards joined by
Yanko and Ash.
What is such a high pressure situation
after I'm sure you've been in this
many a time before.
Can you kind of give us some insight
as to what these guys are probably
feeling right now?
Lots of nerves, but I think this is
such a young team that we're more
excited than nerves.
Maybe it's a little bit different
for Betboom.
I'm not quite sure anymore,
because it's such a mixed team
with a lot of vibes going on there.
I think it'd be more exciting,
I think, for Foot.
For Foot, the rookies, you know,
you know, in the grand sense, or even if this was just Cologne and not the major,
this would still be a bit of a big game for them.
And that boom on the other side, like, yeah, you're one game away from making the playoffs,
but you also have your stand-in.
So how much pressure do you really feel in that scenario?
It's a little bit all over the place when it comes to this.
I guess it's more so the opportunity that it's right there for the taking.
And Ash, we look at these two teams coming into stage two.
The routes they've taken are quite different, right?
And that must affect the mental too.
Yeah, I think I haven't really had the momentum.
I bet Boomba created it, but then I bet Boomba lost it
and thought, I've got it back.
So the 0-2-2-0 dynamic, it's just weird
because I think also both teams are looking at each other
thinking, wow, won't we ever get an opportunity
to play a team of this kind of caliber
to get through to the next stage?
So maybe that's where some extra pressure could be created.
I think this is where Foote has the edge to, right?
I mean, you were a team that's just won two games back
to back, you're coming into this one,
like playing better Counter-Strike,
you're having more confidence on your players
And Betboum, even though they played some good counter strike themselves,
I think they've had some tough opposition, right?
And then losing back to back games, you know, having to play vitality again,
obviously not ideal, played fury in that two-hole game, didn't go their way either.
So even though this is a different level of opponent,
like it's still going to be a bit difficult for them to really come into this game
with a ton of confidence.
Does it have an effect on your mental?
maybe if you bet boomers you start off 2-0 and they have ample opportunity sure it's against their own vitality
No, no easy opposition for sure, but do you think that has an effect on the mental coming into today?
Absolutely I've been twice I think zero two and made it through and I felt like the biggest advantage
We had is that we play against teams that just lost their game
And we just won our two games in a row obviously bet with us two in a row
But it's just a fashion as well that they've lost have kind of been destroyed
I think the game against vitality wasn't even as close as maybe it looked
They want some yellow by going on at 12 6 down that
And it will matter going to this game today and on the other side foot was really tested
I mean sure their losses were closed. They were to one but
Yesterday another three mapper where they were gonna come out on top. So
Resilience throughout the tournament is also really important
it feels like for them it would hear rounds in the interview talking about
oh we wanted to go 3-0 in stage 2 right and then you get rewarded by playing
Vitality in the opening game so I think they'll feel really good about just
getting to this point from being 0-2 down and then having an opponent like
Batboom they have no reason to not feel like this game is very much winnable.
How do you look at that game versus Maus speaking of Foote Ash because obviously in
that you know it was very much the expectations were on Maus are these
to play in the first half of
the year. What do you think
that was going to do anything?
What effects do you think that
had on. I think that was a
great game for them to have in
general. They needed a big test
going into this one because it
feels like they've kind of.
They haven't really sure
themselves that well, then they
beat Bay and they go into that
game and mouse like they've
changed players with miles of
really dangerous to play against.
They're really good at putting
that sort of team to bed, and
what I looked by that game was
that foot showed something on
you whether being pretty poor,
on that and I thought, wow, this is a team. I actually think today, whoever they would
have played, I kind of had them going through on the back of that last month that it played.
Should we get into some specifics then from that series versus now as you picked out a
couple for us? What are we starting with?
Yes, I kind of want to go into how much they traumatize mouseports and I think this is kind
of crazy if they could do this to a team like mouseports and weird smell going on. I'm not
quite sure what you're even at there mate, but it lands top middle. So we've got a double
top mid smoke and I think here what happens is Lance is the middle player and he goes down to
top of his all and they're kind of overusing the information a little bit. So maybe this is by design
because Cabainy we see on the radar he's already going towards B but the over rotation for Maus
is ridiculous to the point where even the B player, the solo B player, without a spoken A block in
apartments or anything, he rotates over as well and Foot do a great job of just throwing every
single bit of utility at Harvard. I think it's through three more towers say guys guys look at
that was over here. And Krabani goes into B. If you look at the timer right now, 1 minute
20 is about to go on to B. Let's see just how long we're going to speed this up. How
long B is completely open here for Maus. And he has a man advantage by the way. So when
Brawlin eventually does come back, it's been 30 seconds by the time he comes back. Krabani
is really thinking there's a server crash or something, I'm not sure. So he's worrying
about this. He does a great job. Maus are still really convinced he's A. I'm not quite
sure. I'm moving the smoke in the mortars. And the symmetry who had a fantastic series
It was nice seeing him be more involved.
That's great work from him.
He goes in and gets the kill.
And this was one of many rounds in this game
where Mausel completely lost from four to two star
and they didn't win another round for a very long time.
Yeah, must have been a communications breakdown too.
I mean, yeah, food did show bomb on Ram,
but he didn't go out.
Like he can always go back and then to leave it that open.
Then even for Berlin on the way back
to not consider the possibility that someone did sneak out of B.
You know, the map has been quiet for so long.
It's just a mistake that ended up costing them a lot.
Yeah, communication or maybe underestimating the side of foot.
Let's go back a couple rounds.
So round nine, what does this display about foot?
Well, I think this is why they've reacted the way they just did.
And they just got into so many weird scenarios.
So it's a good adaptation here.
Taking the ramp, doing nice control.
And they actually have three extra players on it.
So we're at foot speed up.
Zershin, for some reason, goes towards the ramp players.
I don't know about you, Anko.
How many times have we ever seen mouseboards die in this way?
Were there all kind of three of them
were just shot in the back in the same position?
Not just mouseboards, but any team, really.
Like, having three guys there on ramp,
just sort of, you know, the Spider-Man meme is like,
people are all around, who's gonna hold abs?
And actually none of us is gonna hold anything
and we're just going to get shots in the back.
They opened 4A, like, they had the situation
that they wanted, they had the read,
but just the execution wasn't there.
And, you know, there's not a team out there, I feel like,
who's gonna say, oh, we like playing against foot.
Like, they just make you uncomfortable with their pace,
with their aggression, they're very sharp individually,
and that's what makes them dangerous to go up against.
And that's what I liked about them,
watch them because I think if they can bring that energy here but not just here
to the playoffs as well it could do some real damage because this is miles of
completely fallen apart when they should be able to handle this I really
backflap this scene this game it is very impressive call in good decision-making
symmetry as well and I think we've all seen a lot it's quite defensive but in
yesterday he was really aggressive with the rifle on the off. Yeah greater
examples to kind of display what a confidence booster that was for foot
coming into this one on the flip side for Betboom what have you observed Ash
about the way that they're kind of starting a lot of these series here I think let's say a little bit
slow these are all the starts in the last two games you're right I'm back zero zero four two eight
yeah boys I'm balling out you know it starts like this and the game feels like it's going out
27% did one of the pistol rounds we were just two kills and pistol rounds they're both in the first
round of the stage three I believe in.
There is God.
We're very bad at matchups.
Now he got this.
I think that's kind of wide of struggle.
My dog is eating half my fucking window.
Yeah, and this is going to be really important against a team like Foot when Bad Boom's on the CT side, right?
To deny them those early stars.
They're very dangerous.
But I'm very interested to see what the actual veto ends up being, right?
Like teams share a perma ban here.
here I would say that both of them should veto something else and sort of
Latin inferno so you know nuke ban for food a mirage ban for bad boom and
those are some of the obvious ones but for me the key is gonna be a new best
because bad boom is undefeated on in the last three months on land but they
haven't played it in Cologne stages I was wondering where your mind is that
like it's a good map for them but for example I would always hate to have to
play a map for the first time in a tournament like in such an important
game right like you feel more familiar with the maps that you already played
especially for them considering the stand-in situation absolutely when we
am but let us get the map
um relatively you got against Vitality and that's one of the reasons
relatively you're here for the game though so we haven't played at all tournaments this is a weird one
it's game chicken today because both teams running for like you said but they're both
really bad on Overpass so in theory you could just ban the team's best maps for
preparation I have no idea as a coach how you would even approach this today
she's gonna be a total mess and all the maps are very close except for like you
just said Nuke which if I'm for I'm a hundred percent banning nuke today I'm
saying if you want to pick inferno on your elimination lifeline for the major
absolutely you go for that you have fun with that on the single pass I just don't
think he's going to have fun though and I think that's why we're you know he has
Because when the gamble of a 4 map 1 comes out?
It's something like Bebwom probably picking Dust, if Nuke is the one that gets removed and for Foot it could be Ancient, I mean, Bebwom hasn't...
It should be coming here in like couple minutes, at least.
I think in this tournament, yet, but still, when you're going, when we're talking about a 2-2 game to make the pass, you want your best most played maps, right?
And just where your players will feel the most comfortable, so it's going to be very interesting. There's a lot of things that can happen in this.
Okay, so you're thinking not a Nubis to come out, Bebwom, you're saying you don't want it to happen, but you think it still could.
still could. It depends on Bed Boom. As I said, I don't know how they feel about it.
Like, boomage first and the coach in terms of like calling it and also the players. Like,
how many maps of practice did they play in these two weeks? Do they feel like they want
to go for it? Because it's definitely an option for them to pick or to at least leave in as
the third map. Okay, let's find out. I am very, very intrigued to see where this one
Okay, dude, please do not ban inferno or us please. Okay. Nice
This is gonna be like three best of ones on teams from the four best maps
Yeah, for the easy one now is Mirage. Yeah, and I just I think just to higher down as well
Yeah, has to be for bedroom just looking at how they played it in this event and finding some success
And now this second phase is crazy. This is a game of chicken again. What do you want to ban?
I was just watching that game last night, brother, I was at that game last night.
That's crazy.
Okay.
I love the approach there from Batmoo.
This is going to be a real...
Okay, foot-picked Mirage.
I feel and all about Spire.
I actually just...
Oh wait, I was actually...
Oh, that's right, I was watching the Twitch stream.
Yesterday, I think foot-picked Fantastic Mirage.
This is a good opportunity for that.
I forgot about that.
Yeah, without a doubt, starting on that T side,
they can do a lot of different things,
a very aggressive team in your face,
and they're not without chances on Dust2 either,
But I think both of these teams probably feel like it's a bam. Well, they're coaching
Breaking bro. No, I don't think either of these teams really
If it gets to that
Obviously speaking about the tea says that's what foot are gonna be starting on for the first mark
But looking at that boom and they're kind of a tea side career in in safety. What's the what's the story?
Benesh? Yes, I think this is kind of what it looks like when you are using a stand-in
You don't have to practice. Yeah, you can vibe it out in the first stage stage choose a little bit harder
But the win rate is he as they're going deeper in the target. Yanko considerably worse this T side now struggling a lot more
Yeah, it's a part of it is the standing situation. The other part is just playing
We're really curious
I think I see a lot of people with your logic that you spend the map will increase the skills to even right the strong CT side
The team and I would say I absolutely disagree with you and I think that goes actually against CS in general
The kind of track isn't about adding more things to increase the skills, it's about finding things that exist and getting better at them.
Teams are not good on 7 maps as is. They are not. They can't do it.
It creates a lot of one-sided matchups already on certain maps with different teams and different styles.
You add more maps, you just actually make the game worse.
They're just you're gonna see more one-sided games. You're gonna see
Less blushed out ideas and it's gonna actually be an overall worse experience
And we have foot ready in the server. It's time to find out who it's gonna be making it now
Should we rotate our maps that we have right now more often? That's a
absolute
but
But no adding more does not make it better or harder just makes it overall worse
In my opinion.
Teams already can't play 7 maps.
And I don't want to see more lopsided rooms.
CHOOSE THE SOMETHING THAT LORACY TOLD YOU!
Did they put that moron? Yeah, they can do whatever the fuck they want.
I'm just saying your idea that in my opinion, you see increases is so click I would say it absolutely does not
and it's a near miss it's uh thinking about it on the ground again 10 12 years
just promised us deathmatch after that funky v2
i'm not a fan of the rest not so much most have been tweaked
i agree there's different tempo in this one than the rest
most have been tweaked and changed and this is what i mean this is what counter strikes are down
please take pack a punch for four four
not even trying to sound condescending like if you want more like broad changes
and big updates to things and more wow holy s**t and you just want more things
like like that's like we're like now or like you know we could even get
outside of the attack of the S-Bone Road and you know that's like we're like Fortnite comes in like
there's tons of games that do that Counter Strike is great because it refuses to do that
Getting killed full-blind is fucking tough
and comrade removes logs you got magma jazz quick on it with the jilberetta
i don't know like James no idea this is not the i don't need a as well to the us
clusterfush and crebeni good luck have fun this ct side look to start off better
magma jazz closes it down that's fine so they get ensured by a blind guy and
instantly just snap like that okay well what are we gonna do he was blind
this doesn't feel like i had a chance for magma jazz he's been magnificent
Delivering throughout. Longer donks friend. This guy's making a name for his own here. I don't close on the prediction
Access to the next like five seconds whenever I finish his body. I mean you are offering with a standing
You're up against stage three teams. I'm not surprised you two win rates going down
This is tough for Burmese. You really have to feel for the guy
Kim and fierce the brain trust
Have to work together to piece together the approach. Hey Jackie boy
It's nice when you're going up against teams who are of lower ranks and your individual prowess a whole lot higher
Now that you're against the well-seasoned squads, it's a whole lot more difficult and
Foot, or the four of them plus coach Cooley-O, not the tap-a-teaming ball, but the amount
of reps these guys have together, absolutely insane.
Yeah, they've been an exciting prospect throughout the season.
It's not really my favorite, but I got so many major rookies, so many beefs with other
maps.
Turn it major, playoffs.
and I see we're able to do it with their three.
Let's see if Foot can hold on today.
Ooh, with a nice opening, Boomage has been sat down.
I should sneak. There's demon.
Second round conversion.
Yeah, my beef would be within 4-0.
The intro before us would best do...
Oh, my...
That is this absolute salt in the fucking wound, bro.
Keep the sheet clean. There's all those M4s
that could try and scapegoat.
If you see me it's like that and then you're trying to pull it back and you go up there and just attack nine ravages you
Oh my god the save
This round is already done ash they're pointing out the slow starts in maps for bet boom
Well, they might continue here if they can't win back the force by wars into the next
And when I check out that I don't really fall on it in play
Foot on their second round breaks at the top four. Oh, well
that. It's taking true to the
start lines. Yeah, well, if you
can hit shots like that on the
Degan that in the tech nine
demon anchor, Benny's tech nine
looking good at range there.
Waiting for the bomb to go up before they did out of the smirk on their face
And they fuck continue the winning ways you're gonna hear a whole lot more of that throughout
We've got the headline of the day
Next now me versus G2
household name will not be making it
Sorry
My three trips in my years just like it just kind of cute each other up
Yeah, go and in sync. All right, three two one swing three two one cheer
It's going to be a battle though for that economic supremacy.
Pepe's not just going to roll over.
They're going for a bit of a DBZ fusion with that one right there.
That's the nerds at home, they're crawling up cat and they're just ready to block.
Gets his info, gets his phone out and baits into Zorty's dick.
Oh boy, okay, okay.
I thought he's going to hit that one, dude.
I thought he's gonna hit that
I have to commit to this we've gone one for one
They still got the advantage you saw two bricks and you just heard a guy
Was that the same guy that's got earlier T spawn push highlighted
So he does actually have a lot of room, but he's not to know that they hear the other guy's right hmm
Cemetery a demon coming over to join this if they did then that move knows that foot knows that they know
Nobody's home
Hey, Spongebob!
Hey!
Oh, of course, this thing's gonna be goddammit, people are gonna switch, people are gonna switch.
Well, I want to see when Pinkfoot will be more competitive in playoffs.
The great thing about the new format with these best of three is like, I just feel like any team that wins deserves it.
Like I'm not really going into these games.
I'm feeling like one of these teams got like an easy path.
Yeah, man, they're just trying not to back and forth. That reboost and the ladder was sick.
I've been boosted in Spire to deal with Longs.
Yeah, I love that.
They're going to let out a roar of their own.
Get louder here in the Palladium.
I don't know, I just saw it previously in Majors
that we get to a point where certain matchups,
you're just like, really, we're praying that the underdog.
Well, I don't want to speak for y'all,
but I'd be praying that the underdog doesn't win
because 70 times the underdog would win in an upset fashion
and get an easier path and then just get mold in playoffs.
It was just kind of an email
We're right now, I'm not saying this doesn't mean we won't get an email or a stop and playoffs
But I feel like it needs to slave
Man, we really made sure that everything is good to make sure you got those fungus matchups
Team 1 deserves to try and draw one back over to what's being stunted by the flames
Well, Krebbenny's gonna be next on the 40 list here
Perfect angle management, Magnajez gets him very low, he's forced and trapped
Has to burn his smoke, but it's not safe
You're not guaranteed to get away.
Macri-des in hot pursuit will mantel up.
Hey, what bird?
Has to go call this boys into a bit of a B-pop.
Dillardes supported by Flamas and it's nothing empty hands.
Oh, shit, god damn.
Bedbooms starting as they need to go on.
That's a lovely burst of aggression from Macri-des.
They're ready for all of that.
Cemetery of God.
That's a shutdown right there,
and this will have to be the eco now.
So for...
Not in a position to be able to risk the investment.
That was a fucking beatdown.
And all the money
So bedroom wins the economic battle. What's gonna be on the back foot here in the way?
We're gonna be playing a lovely team play. I'm gonna death passing his test here
And they've changed positions to be a tournament and that's what you expect when the roster that you have the major
Was a mystery on the plane on the way in poor siren cannot be with the squad
Well, there is an uncommon for stage one team to make it to playoffs once they've got is a 2-2 game
Yeah, it looks like the best has got as you till down pat
I'm sure it's happened, but like it's uncommon although. It's not the most glamorous or pretty rare. I guess someone's gonna do it
Yeah, I'm them right here. Yeah, he's got magnet jesse's face
for their Budapest run and then
Obviously continuing their form and be laughter
It's a strong start contrast like that
What does it mean when Betboom get off to a flyer?
We'll see how long they can keep foot quiet.
Understand it's one round, but through the force,
now we're back into the gun.
Cemetery will not have his AWP to play this time.
What's the opener?
What's Kravani gonna call them in with?
Stand at opener, window top cap.
He was, guys, he was just locked him in, man.
Let him lock in.
He's selling me, making it look like a default round,
a pounce into aid that's going to put pressure on in game leader boomage major winner cologne winner
it's been a long time between drinks this man disappeared off our radar
there's one for like damn that one's like an ace for him with a little mid-lane action
wait what the fuck he was okay
demon now cemetery tasked with re-smoking CT deep and getting that bomb planted
Long's got a decision to make. Do you want to stand in the smoke?
For Benny late lingering. He's okay. I get this bomb down. This is rough. Oh
Flammeist takes a dip. Oh one and done jugs down. That was great. You tell man
Why is he going up there?
as you told me okay for the standard flammers I could do that do you agree
Must be partial territory again. So this one's flying.
5-1, four-round gap.
Jokes, sits boomage on his ass.
See here, just the pressure is under on the execute. That cam, really, low in the pressure.
See that, straight through the boards. It is nice, boomage is right.
And the Vito, I'm glad that both teams called the bluff in the opening for Ray, right? Not banning out Inferno.
know miss smoke highlighted in spawn here so a little bit of an unforced air up
company will get one in and that has landed we get past this a flammas I
think next to all five he's ducked away and now they can set up a crossfire
from us and magnet jazz turned me into the meat grinder something out of
The monster's dig might have just downed.
Dillard has got a little...
Oh, Krebberny didn't quite react to the info in time.
He started his swing.
Flamasco's probably didn't peek with his ult.
Ooh!
Can I wait for them flash to fade a little bit?
Oh, okay. Cemetery caught on the smoke and they'll make like work of that one.
Okay. Oh, it's tough when you lose that opening peek, but the timeout has been taken from Coolyo.
today's all about the occasion and the precipice of the playoffs pressure is
paramount and for these boys I've never been in this position before last year
well now if he's Academy, Loss-McCazzie he goes to the main team found a suitable
replacement in the last. Are we all flat out doing a better job?
This is their first major and full-on. I think we'll be stronger in playoffs, but they do look weaker right now.
So, I gotta just say this, I gotta go.
but when some not like to make it
definitely deserve it you know what I mean
once again W. James to give us the three
stage three because I'm not learning
just don't feel like if anything wins
today I'm gonna be upset that they made
it to playoffs you know which is really
nice guns in the second time yet to get
going zero and six this is a big round
wall in middle demon takes the head off of flamas straight charging for that opening
jewel that makes his opening incision immediately you've got your advantage demon has provided
and dillard as provides a whole lot of information very forward position getting of course spotted
and he still takes one good value i mean get one there's an important game for him i didn't have
head armor there he said just exploded the hands of the m4 magnet jazzy peter
Not the head of the loader.
No, yeah, he's hurt. He's hurt.
What the... man?
Man, no.
Nah, that was full. That was fucking full.
That was so full.
Shreds foot just like that.
I get that bomb, Krebati.
Up and over the long way around.
Okay.
W Death from Magnogers to get the info death.
For his carry, Boomage.
W Magnogers.
Sortie's AWP will be smoked off.
He's using his U2.
Well, but he doesn't wait for the smoke.
Boomage.
Oh my.
Boomage.
Let me see that spray one more time, bro.
Let me see that shoot.
The necessary triple.
What the A1S?
No.
My god.
says I'm telling him right now seven to one this is producer to be a higher
tempo on the replay ten minutes deep and well one look difficult even have
all of this folder for that
Casual
Flannis
right there
getting that reaction
beloved now from the boss man the big man
bro's trying to stay locked in he doesn't want to get too excited holy shit
boom response was so bad bro he's not just trying to seem too cool I think
he's trying to not get emotionally too high he's trying to stay locked bro
I mean obviously fucking wants to shit but you know what I mean like he's got
as emotions and check oh my god
jokes just vaporized by flammers as magna jazz does catch a bit of flak
they're playing stubborn aren't they they want to fight for this
they players get too hyped and not i know dude there's nothing wrong with
admitting that sometimes when you hide yourself up you start losing focus
some people it helps them some people it doesn't you know it's
Provenian longs also the walking wounded having the self awareness to know which one you are and like which one you need to be his
It's good
So back around the world over towards a
Smokin spawn picked up they might be able to use that to great success if they want to deploy it
But that will be the teller they are coming Zorgy playing from ticket his support. It is miles away. They are selling the A site
Zordy at this point is just a ward. He cannot go down. He needs to get the info stay alive
If you can shave one off, we'll make this a whole lot easier on the retake.
You've only got a single smoke grenade.
So oh my god, if you go to the SK2.
Hey, no, he's aware.
For many, goes down to the desert.
Actually taking his team may hang on to the box doesn't.
Why why is the block covering?
Longs in the open hits one onto the head, finished off by seven.
That's an important first.
We need another and it's still a boom.
It's on CT problems.
Longs too much.
Oh, not too much to handle.
knows where boom it is. Heavy advantage again boom looking for more impact on the
Oh
Denies what would have been somewhat of a fire star
Yeah, man, I see, I see, but
Eight and two for the big man back-to-back impact
And this is gonna really set foot back they have to salvage four
Just cool. Do you want to take another time out? Yes, okay
They need to be able to piece something competitive in this half
Get away from the way it was.
Captain Mouse gained the Bluff that was called in the Vito.
They've been more scared of what's ancient than they were at their mirage.
And this is their bread and butter. The two of those maps, they love them.
It's great for aimers, explosive players, individuals who back their cross set
every day of the week.
And they are some of the sharper shooters in Counter Strike right now.
But right now they are in a massive hole.
They need to be able to call themselves back into this.
I don't know, slow fucking slow, and they are playing proactive, and they are moving on the map, and we are hesitating, we are ending slow. That's not the way we are playing. Like take your boss please, and let's try to speed up, let's try to communicate.
3 on B.
Yeah.
I don't want to backshot that.
Get your balls.
We don't want them to take the fights.
Get your balls.
Just set the tone.
Get balls.
But he didn't see anything wrong with the self flash.
He's not pro-intimity.
But everything ready in HE right between two of them demon and cemetery.
Oh, walk it, walk it!
Now move it.
Move it!
Just don't fucking wait.
a little bit of excitement, a little bit of a yell, instantly back in. Instantly back
in, bro. Boomish, who are you?
As we all expected from that, now the rest of the day is on.
Not simple, not electronic, big boomers.
I gel on the new team, trying to get the playoffs.
As we all expected on that arc.
Another one landed on the doorstep.
But I think this is what Coolio is not liking, they're not taking the mid control, they're
Strap it around the smokes. They're not taking their timings. They grew if you got perfecto down. Yeah, I actually did
But bits on now these ones one through the smoke they go magnet is out of position
Guys
That boom is not
Holy fuck guys, we are speedrunning this.
We are speedrunning this shit. Holy fuck.
footy you're even gonna warm into this 2-2 game you would turn your fate around
lost the hands of vitality and due to winds of a bay and now put yourself here
and you try to get anything done
now be all caught up
oh there's some space okay they went faster this is what remember what I said
the cemetery's position flamas should be nullified
Kruveni's calling reminds me of snappies this is the type of shit that I'm talking about
one frag cemetery important one here
guess the heads oh he's lost control of that all right honestly maybe I could go
program check almost say it does that mean anything in the grand scheme maybe
I always say you guys I'm not good enough I'm ticking my confidence is an
old-time high right now longs on Benchside
oh my god they killed no one
oh my lord that is
Holy shit!
That's a turn, that's a, there's no, how do you not kill one?
Guys, I'm running a half time out if you're primed or primed for getting out of the time.
How do you not kill one dude?
Honestly guys, I just don't think there's any possible way to put the business one back.
We've never seen anybody with a comeback like this before on Mirage.
Downer thanks to the two year primary, thank you, thank you.
JNQZ, thanks for the apartment, thank you, man.
You know, guys, some of you, we need to get you to Gapham with people outside more.
But just now, I appreciate you.
Some of y'all are fucking too funny.
if that's enough internet for you today buddy scrappy thanks to the 25 month reset when I
I see a multi-month 3-step thank you and thank you strap you appreciate it wavy
thanks to the 25-month primary
wavy don't don't please me too much thanks for the 25-month primary how many
days to the 19-month primary in chat if you absolutely hate money and make poor
financial decisions I'll be natural gets its tips on twitch and on kick if you
want to bless somebody with an ad block
Trip it next to the 10 months, solox, thank you so much for the 5, 10 gifts of Chateau
He gave out 10 ad blocks to the homies.
Same thing today, month-prime, thank you.
Dave, shut up, thanks for the bids.
What are we thinking, boys?
Like, no way, right?
That boom just looks insane right now.
They actually look insane.
All me dating aside, energy versus big.
X-Men with the five gifted ad blocks, thank you so much, channel U15.
Any thanks to the 11-node primer?
306 to the 46, shit, I got a GSC, bro, trying to make me cough.
Hey, SKZ, you'll be a good week, man.
What is this going on right now? How does he do this?
Call the save Limerosly with your play!
We know where they are, we are waiting for them to come and kill us.
Like, that's not the way how we want to get out of this fucking tournament.
Like, we are 100 times better than them, and we are playing like, I don't know, face it level 5 team right now.
Like, we are first time in this fucking stage. It's the same game what we are playing.
like we are playing the same fucking game but you guys are thinking we are
playing in a different like I don't know I can tell you we can win this game
still like they are over as coach can we give it some sturn
because I'm not having it bro just yourself this is reality I like how
crap and didn't say word it was just the row he just sipping the whole time he's
like let us he said talk shit to me coach in that first half bro didn't
Now they're running at him. This is what you want to see.
This is confidence.
And that's the start.
The necessary round for Foote to shake off what was a disastrous first half of the match.
They can turn this around and just make it competitive, even if it is just a cosmetic combat, they need to be warmed up for Dust to come in next.
Coolio, that's a stern talk, he's giving to his boys. They're young men. Let's see how they respond to that.
In interviews, they seem to talk about it in the same way.
Now that in your face counter strike, if you cop a diggle bullet to the toe, that's one way back in, but one by one, that's what Longs wants to see, and it's going to be the eco.
So given the good races of consecutive rounds, that only two so far has come on a force, and now a pistol.
This will be against an eco, and then the gun rounds will begin, and so will the tough road back.
is the problem you have. And they need two rounds. They're lost bones, we maxed out.
If they keep getting into the sides, getting the bomb down, that's gun round after gun
round after gun round. This will not be easy.
Of course.
If we've seen in Cologne that anything is possible, just start again on 3.
That's drag of the stage for the 1. Thank you, Charlie. 16 gifted.
And the 2-2 game, there's nothing more to play after this if you can't convert.
I like that reminder that same tournament same game. It's the same game sure the stakes
you know from never been higher, but you've been down at zero to you were cornered from
the start and they don't with miles yesterday and that's one that should definitely put
here on your chest. Sure. It's not the same mouse. They've got the whole stand in new
in game leader roster all over the shop situation. The kill could be viable on the block. The
The jumping burst will not land and they keep four alive.
Scavenged back the other round.
Four, and they take three to go.
Unless it's an extra under play.
Unless.
No way, right?
Not again.
OK, can we equip now?
Four bat boom.
Honestly, guys, we can't have them take our glory also.
Oh, fuck.
My hair keeps getting mosed.
God damn.
My hair is out of control today, guys.
Let me fix it.
So I'm just going to something grouped up,
explosive to see if you can still take advantage of the slow stuff from the
four individuals players not hitting shots they normally would
I could go bald. I had grossed too fast so that's not a problem this is a tough
call to make when you're up against a gun round on a knife's edge like this so
Crabman takes a lot of space can a scuttle through a T spawn but grouped up at
the moment, Bed Boomer looking like they're in a B split formation.
And the Gers warded away from underpass for now, but Krebbeni has taken so much space
on the map.
Juggs has to worry about the potential for the Palace League, he'll also be tasked with
Connector because Cemetery is going to bolster that B defense.
He's going to join Demon and Loist, which has no idea this is possible.
Krebbeni's about to announce himself.
He sees him.
He's alone.
He wants more answers than just the one he gots numbers.
Oh yeah.
Looking for that double kill and he's got back the jazz!
Good and they're just a boom!
4 on 4 accelerating into the B site.
You got Demon and Sematree here.
Flammas down to a team monotone,
but the dink came from longs.
Sematree's got to find out on this rifle.
That's the headshot. Can't find the follow up Demon can.
Boom is last seen top middle.
No secret as he charges for the first round.
no secret as he charges forward to retrieve that bomb two on the site
I thought he was going to just leave
I thought he was going to just leave to be honest
well first time out
balls in both hands
we're dual wielding balls
the bomb doesn't go down it will have to be a partial buy fierce gets a little
harder game super cd silent it's just the major has been like this specifically
mirage because of the game I wouldn't even mind if that boom just go for
the Eagles on all five pick a spot and search right because of the way that
foot I'm now gonna want to take fights that that conversation that is boys I
want you to swing I want you to take Jules I want you to back yourself
individually and that does mean that they are susceptible to fights that are
not favourable it's not gonna be the case they are gonna go for a couple of tech
nines zodiac thanks to the 510 gifted ad blocks to the homies and shafts
with the DG40 it's on to his cash to bring up the AWP my theory
three mid smokes to complete is just that some steam pets had a little bit more
time to prep coming into this pressure to launch and this map is fluid and still
unchanged a lot that I think a lot of people that display the map right now
Very
by there's that
One man gets the job done
He's not just your regular in game leader is preventing this guy. He's hard. He's got hands
Pincers
Yeah, I was there first
So he's off is
Turning over towards a to look for a peak. He's got the support of 10 more. I'd watch for the honus
Thank you guys for the gift. I'm also starting to part back
We set up staunch on middle
So good amount of control for thought which means a good amount of information now playing to clamp down once that boom go for space
So that means jugs playing out of position not sight side magma jazz. Can he get anything done here?
Info for Longz, he continues his walk forward.
Looking for Magnajes.
Oh, Core Al, who's turning for the flashbang.
Magnajes able to profit.
That's a big pick provided.
Longz is going to be so frustrated.
Things started to flow and now it's a lot of pressure.
You see those smokes, you get that sinking feeling
in your stomach as they know the A-Sides like it to be lost.
Magnajes going for a late reroute.
We'll arrive on the flank on bombs going plans
Still goes down to credit the trade is there from the or providing the overwatch
But when he's not spades, it's a clear out the lurch at the lurch guys
This plant becomes really uncomfortable
We still faves.
Oh, what a shot!
Samusby is going crazy!
That's a whole new face of 34, my friend.
Thank you.
I love that they faked the plant,
but the problem that they didn't run into
is they just, the smoke started to fade.
And then as soon as that light doesn't hit,
it's so fucking cooked.
Second tactical timeout for that boom. Remember I said the lost bonus was being maxed out as part of this comeback
But know what they're up against but if the bomb doesn't go down you're in the tumble dryer
It's by partial by partial
But know what they're up against again, it cannot be the full investment or it can it would just be galore's
They'd be like that's impressive
A few minutes left on the scamp, same place.
Dude, what up?
The cemetery is just perfect for holding that line, man.
six, six brain, you mean my chat, right?
you brave to path into a palace smoke with the possibility for jugs to spot you
squandered him, send you in middle for longs
it is just two on the side, the reed is run for foot, they're gambled three beat jugs
and cemetery will have to deliver
scored half time was 11-1
join the party before they start to
release the nades they have to
he's got the lion's share
test for jukes here
he's got pk
pk is huge for this but he's got to hit his shots obviously
uses crosshair stable
blocked on ramp
that's a headshot from flamas jukes with empty hands
Oh, and they got a big cut for the up.
What are you doing?
What are you-
Good at control it!
Noobs can!
Can he take down Boomer down?
Stands again!
17 kills for Boomer!
That's crazy he made that move.
It's crazy that it should have worked and he didn't know who to shoot because they were fucking everywhere.
What the fuck dude?
Bro really walked through and just did it.
He's here.
He didn't know who to shoot bro.
Oh this one, high flying.
The fights will never stop.
It's all and then boom itch just has to hit it on the tag nine eight eight three. Holy
Now on the knife's edge is an eight play again. Longs the short player is over to wards a
They've got two rifles here cemetery starting short preventing to join in for this. This one explode
This one throw that knockout blow
Caps the exposed chin of foot flashes landing default for jugs
He did he did shoot one
for one. Nox needs the multi provides for two. Still up for debate. He's got the bomb in his boots
and Zorty will back away looking good for that seventh. Molly's good. Molly might have
Nox's name on it. Gives up the ladder safe and sound. Yeah. So I've got now Zorty. This is tough.
You can play around it if you'd like. You've got so much time in the round at minute and 10.
I'll let the calm fall over Mirage and see if anything comes his way.
and carrying it into the next. So, Longs makes up for the previous and the loose piece does play
in to great success. He's surely got no chance in this now. So much he didn't hear the scope.
Jam time. So we're just not holding B? Why would they be, bro? They got the bomb.
The extra damage with the bomb is done. We will call this one 12 to 7. There's,
ooh, cemetery. It does walk into the op. Okay. That's not too shabby. That actually is going to
to make a bit of a dent. Longs wants to head over and see if he can pick up the AWP. I
don't think it's going to be possible unless it's scavenged. And yeah, okay. Your face
is in the way. No, I don't think my face is in the way he was standing on the radar.
Remember, um, just in general, it's a little goofy, but like if he's got, if he has the
bomb with the SL, he's red and he just unloads, not expecting short plan. The third is beautiful.
It was actually kind of hard to see on the map, because I blocked it and it was spinning.
Do you like the bottom carry rate? I don't know, do we have a distinction at all?
now 12 to 7
this is doable
but there is going to be difficulties for everyone on the T-Sets
this is hodge podged piece together
it's a team that only had officials with this 5-man
in Cologne
torpedo, yeah I don't know, I think it was ganker that said they're just on a serious team
don't take him serious, I don't know, it was a tough one
somebody did
I'm not talking about these
team chats. I'm just
running something else. One
round away from being just a
map away. Maybe next to them
would be good. JT.
Silence falls on the
mirage. A little bit of friction
on middle. Double smokes
exchanged for the time we care.
many into mines between jungle and the window
so an opening casualty now someone from foot has to overcome the number
discrepancy
juggs is position now given away by the smoke grenades and oh my god holy
bucket timing
all of that's it
unless
box is gonna go crazy
They are set to collect right here and now as up to demon and longs
Quiet mirage from demon
Can he find anything booms thunder well gets the barrel gets the head
Well turns out not everybody's energy. I'm lucky really
If it was like energy, they would have won full rounds.
That wasn't doing what he thought it was, huh?
See, he's actually given some confidence, hopefully.
Brings him, like gets the mental a little bit better, yeah.
All I'm saying, Chad, is energy makes that come back.
Yeah, I did feel like it might be the day that the foot was going to graduate from that academy
Baiting, I'm baiting
And you send them right back to school after that performance on Mirage
I mean, absolutely shocking now with the T side at clutch, you know, on the T side was really important
It seemed like foot was starting to gain steam, come back into the second half
But, bad boom, able to close it out
What, that's crazy, no way man
A couple more rounds of pitch, kind of over the line
I believe it could have been a comaké, a lot of them playing good towards the end
the end but it's just too little too late. Yeah it was indeed and it's really
unfortunate when you're looking at this and going obviously the math beauty
conversations everything we were talking about Yanco this was you know
Futs best opportunity to be really putting a statement in this series. Yeah
it's unfortunate it felt like some maybe they lost their cool somewhat because
you know you start off slow your default is getting shut down you're getting
picked apart the players probably don't have a lot of confidence and yes in
that moment you sort of have to switch it up a little bit maybe go for some of
your execute set strats that you have. So you take the decision making out of the player's
hands, they know what to do, but it felt like they overcompensated really in a way and it
just kept getting shut down. You know, Betboom was doing a great job of reading what was
coming next and it was a very, very flat T side forefoot, uncharacteristically so.
And that's the thing, right? We go back to the beginning of this very map and I think,
Okay, maybe we've got a game, bedroom, they get the pistol, foot stop, the conversion happening, then round three happens Ash.
Yeah, it felt like we're gonna get off to another bad start.
We'll make a nice little boomerich to get two kills and piss around to shut me up and sell it, but yeah, the first buy happens from foot, and triple smoke happens in middle.
When teams use lots of early utility, it's just a normal reaction, let's use something back and do what is at this moment in the arcs, he says, okay, you do three smokes, I'll throw one back as well, and my hand does an even dream of keeping, so it's not a strange that he smokes him off, but the trade comes in one for one.
and uh, thought I'd have to make a new plan, so leave one person in ladder and they go back towards a very slow A spot
but this is Boomitch whilst the traitor happened in, he has no intention of rotating whatsoever
so he's aware that the foot gameplay is a lot of randomness and pushing so he's not really buying the idea
but this is the activity here, and they've got their own foot playing today
they don't even have to watch me, all the demos are public all the time
and they actually think it's a B split because of where they get the kill
but Boomitch is in the right position, because he stayed there, he has a fantastic position, he gets an extra one
and then boom it can trade the round down and win that one and for once they can get off to a good start
And that was absolutely huge for them, right? Like having the early conversion. We talked about it
You know, most games will watch the demos after the fact
they're not usually going to be watching the game as live and then they're probably practicing right now or going over their own stuff
to stop them is to deny the momentum and and sort of when those
First couple of calls don't work for them
what they want to do that there isn't still a ton of depth like when they have
to switch it up somehow it doesn't come naturally to them it's more difficult
they're not as good at that playstyle so if you can get them to that point that's
where you you will have the most success against them.
Yeah, they kind of a little bit puggied themselves
when they were playing against themselves almost in a way before a foot team
because Batboom were playing in their faces they were moving around a lot and it looked like they were really playing to win
And bet the foot just couldn't deal with it.
V2 is bedroom stress, they put a first lecture now.
On the stage, just high rounds are always harder to win on the stage for whatever reason.
And when they lost a few rounds, which they definitely should have won, it just kind of snowballed.
Yeah, we can probably take a look at another example coming out of that first half of bedroom
to illustrate what you were talking about, Janko.
This is where they really seem to have started to unravel, right?
And this is still, I mean, you can still make it 6'6", 7'5", 8'4", these are all still decent halves.
They find the entry, they have a 5'4 situation.
It's the confidence at this point from bad boom deal it does with a very aggressive peak gets spotted
Goes back gets one kill gets traded and magnitudes underhand the smoke goes back for seconds
I'm trying to catch them off guard, but demon ready for this will get the punish then in a 4v2
What's the rush here for food this underhand smoke still hasn't?
Disappear great
Yeah, and then the round here and boomage who was full blind
But you had to wait out the smokes you don't push with the flashes he regains vision
He just slows you down from from top van like gets a triple kill and then they finish off the round
It's like this is like what are you guys doing like well you just had two guys push
Why don't you wait around a little bit more they can push again?
You have a lot of utility. There's a lot of time on the clock. The pressure is on a utility
The two players during the 2v4 situation and it felt like a
That was an epic, this is where we're feeling fine, it seems like that's when we're going to run away with this game
Yeah, I think that kind of shows that it's a big experience, kind of, like this is just a fundamental round
You play this round online or in practice, you do this properly every single time, like you said the smoke's just gone
And we also kind of had a game, but then we placed down in this map, it was carefree, it was, yeah, we're going to smoke and push through it
There's a teammate behind me, so what maybe it worked, maybe it doesn't
And Foot just couldn't handle this, he couldn't adapt,
he was struggling and there was some rounds
in the last one of the half.
Symmetry sees Flamas for three seconds from B-Apt
and he still loses the duel.
Crabeni had a 1v2 that he's trying to shoot a guy in the back
because he's not killing me,
because there won't be one who can lose that one as well.
So Foot just completely lost their heads.
Big time need to go and reset.
Do you think that, I guess, a stress-free cooling approach
helps when you're boomerging?
You'll just frag it out individually as well.
Does it make you feel a little bit more confident in this one?
I think it absolutely does.
also having that 11-1 lead, so I said, alleviate some of the stress knowing you
have a ton of opportunities then also wants to win the half-pie and he has
the clutch like all these things matter a lot and also shout out to Fierce right
with some of the timeouts there in the second half, back on track and just
could see with the round ash pointed out you know in the four-spy like the two
initially boosting ladder then do it in the mid-round they just had these
these these little things to counter foot and they worked extremely well on
Mirage. Thanks for the gift, Harry. For example, even the Crobini gets behind them.
They're just they're just whipping and they're forced by as well. I genuinely
started thinking, oh my god, they're gonna win this. Maybe even regulation, but
when you can only get one round, it's just if you just eat out while she's
struggling, get two or three, you never know what can happen in the second map.
So second round. So I think we saw a little bit of foot warming up into the
second map and now they'll be talking outside of guys, let's not get carried
way this isn't done yet and I thought I've actually beaten Vitality the one that broke the streak on
just two as well so this is by no means is this over. Yeah just to go back to what we heard from
for I believe it was in that kind of halftime break we were talking about it Ash right they really go
straight to the point there's no two bones about what they want to be talking about it is that the
approach you think is right because I would look at that and go okay it sounds pretty critical
Well, everybody knows what's going wrong right now, but what would you take of it?
Well, usually, in case you're in second right, we'll play in like, face hit level 5 right now.
So I hope there's no elo on the line, because it could be a devotee to level 4 after that.
But I think what you need sometimes to do is you understand the map is kind of over.
I think it was 11-1 when he says this already.
You need to snap people out of it, like people at this moment, they're focusing so hard on the things
that just do not matter, thinking about their opponents.
And what you're saying by this is, if you learn a lot from them, you can clear them back in the game.
The thing I can start to rap, this is the main reason why you're losing a map.
If you don't really address this, you're kind of saying, well, I think the other team is just better than us right now.
And that's not the approach you want to take.
So it's kind of like an approach of, we've got nothing to lose.
I'm just going to say something and snap my team out of it.
And maybe a miracle happens.
But the most important thing is let's warm up for the next map.
And I think that kind of worked in a way.
Yeah, they got that effect, right?
It was difficult when you're, you know, losing.
Things are the crazy news to answer your question.
Fred depends on the players, right?
Depending on which sort of players you have, Apex, we've interviewed him about him and his players are consistent, right?
Some of it is just venting your frustrations, in a way. Some of it is trying to get players to snap out of it, right?
For someone else, maybe the carrot works a little bit better. Miles might be one of those teams, but for some teams, you definitely need that stick.
Yeah, better out than in some may say but our foot out of it as we move on to dust to bet booms map pick
Of course, there's a lot of discussion about what they were going to be picking into this one
But in terms of that record some pretty good boom yanko
What are we looking at here that's gonna maybe make it tricky for foot?
I think it's similar to all the other masks when they comes to their CT sides
Like they could just do a lot of different things in terms of aggression
On T side they have enough like on this map
you know T-Sets have been more of a struggle for them as Ash pointed out in stage three, but
on that team they have a couple small combinations out of which they have different endings, so it's
not all reliant on finding openings and please God give us a long spawn, right? Like they have
enough depth where even if things don't start off well for them they can still wrap up a couple
rounds of T-Sets. Well it certainly isn't over until it is over, but Batroom wants to get this job done
I didn't give them credit for your primary crime for giving them time, you're not missing anything though, promise.

I'm a reviking and I'm from the US but I just Norwegian heritage
Invest in skins and stickers?
No.
Can I?
Kind of despise the investors.
I like my skins now.
This is my first major, but I attended the play.
I think I have a different emotion than the other events,
but I think we are getting used as a team to play like this big event,
like Atlanta, we played Cracow and all of a sudden,
but first major is a different feeling,
I don't know how to explain it with words, but it feels good to be here.
When I joined with International Player, my mindset a bit changed like the way to speak
with International Player and stuff like this because before like it's the mindset of like
Albanians, it's a bit different how we speak.
For example, Kulio, when I started the IGL, it was hard for me because I was new, I didn't
know most of the things and of course he helped me like with most of the things like
he keeps me. I don't feel any big of pressure when I play. We didn't play yet in big stages,
we played only probably when it was like some people sitting like maybe around 500 something
they make it for me both all the same
I don't know man I don't know what I was gonna do with like the map pool but I
would like to just like have more consistent location I guess yeah I don't
I would like to see cash come in
What was wrong with frame? Nobody played it
That was what was wrong with frame
That's also though what happens like with
A state one team are a single map away from the playoffs who fucking the extreme master's cologne major
Always that one don't we?
I'm thinking to be the team that didn't even have a roster coming into the event
Xbox smoke
Another one there for Boombitch to work with, manages into a lower, plush, over, he hides.
Boombitch is actually going to bring that smoke over towards B. Angadjez has to be very careful.
He wants his angle perfect. Oh my, the smoke, a jerk stands for one.
Okay, 4v3, get him in.
I'll go tap, tap, tap, a roux.
They'll have their numbers for this retake, and it's going to be on smoke through the doors from the CT side.
I was going to smoke on them.
Oh, they're going to...
Wait. Oh.
They go and diffuse. He said, yeah, you go ahead and diffuse.
Oh, hold this.
And then the prediction.
They do like to take the eco, so I wouldn't be too surprised to see them careful to fully come on the rifles into the next.
That's likely why Bepplin have such a miserable looking second round conversion.
The buyers are starting to take shape. There's glills on the table. There's a scout in the hands of Zorty.
There's five rifles for Foot to defend their honor. They need to hold on to this Foot.
Oh, great tag on the cross.
Makes that look easy.
I'm sure.
Jokes limping.
All right.
Uh-uh.
in here and answer for the blocks so you need the ct set up to be in the right
place to be able to stall this unless you want to play retake and would set it
right now that's not the case any with this hey cheat was one of the mongols
I'm not sure no I don't think right now I think foot was is younger
always gonna go down preventing with empty hands caught by boomage that is a
terrible death
Oh
He's heading already straight through long doors towards T spawn to try and take away longs his rifle
Famous starting to search through the mid doors joined by till it as Amidres will stay with the bomb
As long as able to find a safe haven
I'm still going to go down all the sector on forces. I just feel like I mean at least this one
Just shit from I'm not going to be clearly coded. Oh, he's playing close cats. Hello
That's so it's just long the very little support
verse the second round and
Yeah, I don't know. That was just really bad. I fucking hate you. I don't know if they like to play it that way
And that's 1400 as the loss burners couldn't go worse for the start of man number two for
Yeah, my point is you got like one guy playing back
You have another guy up close
How much do you see? Just enough
Why are you there, right?
Like, Krobeny's gonna be very frustrated about conceiving that
What are we doing? And that's guy's yell too
That's like frustrating to see
But the time he emerges from the side
Not saying they never make mistakes, but that's just like
What are you doing, man?
Blue 2 with a 45 month reset, thank you, thank you
I got a single rifle, it's 2D, it was 3.5.7
And it's ringing to action in middle
long cemetery on the ramp flamas
that's his name man
we're tricking the book right now to grab that
keeps demon and longs planted for now
so now we're playing back on cat huh
defense for jugs
here comes a bit of an egg seg from burn gonna try and throw now he can't throw
the second piece about without vision so he
manufactures it gets his lineup kribani next to him and it's a big
Oh god, it is just Jugs here.
Oh, and the Hick shot through Smoke.
Symmetry doesn't even really get to use his Deagle at all.
Jugs alone with a 5-7 versus the entire squad.
Better boom now, what's up? He timed it well.
Finds just the one headshot onto MagnaJazz.
Flamme has cut rotations with this position.
Demon top mid, not gonna be able to fight it cleanly.
Fitting run out, making it as difficult as possible.
Fight as a unit, can overcome these sidearms.
I think the scary first second, but honestly, they felt like they were in the driver's seat
to chill in.
Well, but boom wins this force war again.
Terrible way to start for Flip now.
Oof.
I'm getting tricky with it early.
Short control.
I can live without an explosion.
This is such a way to take the window out there, man.
It's brilliant.
Pull it in the back of chance, demon, no.
Boomish knows he got away with murder there.
Should have been dead to demon.
What did you say to the red nose?
boomish knows he got away with murder that should have been dead to demon
we got a really evolve a little bit on the internet
or just a cheephole
so somebody mentioned how it was that we give Navi shit for his people saying that the number one cheep came coming into this
They were
But that also means they could that you know they also are looking weaker right now just like my tallies differently
Obviously the number one
Being in this position so quickly into their careers. You things can be true simultaneously, which is they have this
Somebody's demons are looking a bit weaker coming to this major is open the door for the other teams to run at them for sure
And not he was never like far and away
They were just really the most consistent best of the rest
Oh
People just like to wait to what person lose I see
But how does has it you know two majors in a row two grand stems loses a Lannister I told you their run was a fluke man
one on the other side and he won't hit a shot.
Obviously the only other team really to win any amount of tournaments
is the first half of the year.
Look at the graces of that.
Like top four multiple times, making playoffs at every event.
Lose early exit or look weak in the majors.
I told you, Davies, it's so bad.
That's how it works.
That doesn't mean you have to believe in that, you know?
He's still gonna pick this.
Yeah, man, they're just backing his aim on this swing.
Therian is underrated.
Well, no.
Therian is not underrated.
They look like shit coming into this major, but their 3-0 did look really good.
Just crouches into the headshot.
He fuckers.
He's gonna run again, his burn itch.
He's not stopping.
Therian looks like bunz coming into this major, dude.
of playoffs and it has no breaks right now.
Gamble stacking B hoping that it will be a B pop where I'm in to be placed just cemetery
over towards A. Let's see if Kribani is reading.
Come on into the major champ, Boomich.
He can't flash around and he cops that.
I'm confused with Terry Buns where they get.
Terry was good at the second half of last year then this year they've been really this
poop.
No real runs.
But they just threw their way into plans pretty convincingly.
Well played. Well played for Benny.
walking into this after the opening kills,
but at least they're playing the way
that we know this team can and does.
Settle down, babe, to the front.
There you go, yeah.
That's a lot of her comes with matchups.
Yeah, of course, of course.
That one was necessary.
Deal timeout call from Coolio.
So I think this will be more of a strategic adjustment
than a pep talk.
We're in this one early, it's just a one round gap.
Well, I think the biggest thing that,
Yeah, you know, the fall in Sverlansk school, but for furious overall performance, I mean, the big difference
is Mollardoy, like he was finding his form again, which has been missing.
And that's just, like, so important.
But if Mollardoy goes missing again, it's gonna look really bad.
And Zorty has a long spawn to operate with right now
This is the pilot dust to its influx rounds can be decided just based off your spawns and if you're willing to take the chance
Well, Zorty is
Walk sounds off
They play it play this poor opposition. That's fine. You can play this in front of me, but they still looked good
It's already across and I'll fire off the mark though far at all
We've seen plenty of schemes struggle with some of those teams you guys are calling like a free win
I do own my own burrito and I have an incredible IPA you should try.
front cemetery catches Magnajez trying to take some of that space away now he drops in
Dillard takes the space and cemetery peeks into Salty good fine Krabeni's been spotted on the
side they're ready for him Dillard there's easy on the uncrouch
caches the headshot and this is that worst-case scenario you were talking about it's gonna have
to be the save here we'll see if that boom allowed work
I don't know what is trying to do where they call the time out after that round and then
I just feel like they're completely separated from one another.
It's like, I don't know, maybe I guess they just didn't believe in the longs so they didn't
them up on the T side. Longs and jokes will be given the good places. So holding on to these two.
1900 loss coming into the next likely need more details of the brewery. Oh, yeah. It's one of the
best in Vegas and we have a $40 smash burger that you could buy. I swear it's good. Just buy it.
If you get the opportunity to jump in a lower tunnel as well.
I think it doesn't taste like anybody else's I swear.
We don't do anything different from anyone else, but we're just here.
So it's me having to make the call
Kruppini's actually made a decent level of investment here. He's
Got a scout and some kev
Seeing what this man can do with a scout on dust two
They're symmetry and demon essentially eco. So as a tag early Kruppini
Dish about some damage on the break seeing what they can catch
Oh, how about another one? I put it onto a sortie. Magnetjers returns fire with lethality
Crippany the opening death expanded a whole lot easier for these usp's if they can find the targets of managers
Oh, yeah, yeah, we have some fries guys even grabs that if you can travel fries no truffle on them just oil cut them off at the
Cross those are 25 dollars
Boom it's not moving short fire imminent
team and playing for a tag
oh my god this is a fucking setup
there you go boy
oh wait wait midbies open somebody
nobody communicating with the juice
Off guard by this repulse. Here's a smoke in a Molly. Oh my gosh. You're gonna go back to get around timing
Just nails it
For a pasta test there
If he gets upset to clear drop some of you guys generally need to talk to
Mouron in that one but uh keeping it to a one round game of these responses
Look when they're next to the 1013 some big damage. See how easy that is the conversion and then
You guys remind me of why these Twitter accounts are fireman impressions and making hella money and by hella money I mean 20 bucks
No matter who makes it to the lengths has to be a first time for all of these gentlemen. It's during the last time out guys
Never asked from each other you're playing a win. That must get away with a lot there
souvenir cup
this pick when you're chillin'
There's so many flashes, it's really hard to see how semis are doing to contribute with this AXQ coming
He should be completely flashed off the line while they scale
Play this close war for anti flash, but he's throwing it. I wonder how many people think that he actually doesn't throw a remote
There's a shot, some damage inflicted short
From the defensive salvo, Krebbenny's trying to get cheeky around the smokes. He's got his back turned him
No sorties just hit the no scope.
What a shot.
They get that opening, they get that bomb platoon.
That was fucking huge.
If he didn't hit that, I think he gets two.
Extended parthing from the T smoke on top of their own,
which is here to catch you as you emerge.
So aware.
Trying to go off the flash.
Good finds from demon and longs.
There's another bomb.
Oh!
They know where Flamme is.
It's caught through the smoke.
Holy shit!
C'mon, it's difficult, but foot prevailed.
So he runs that a rough down of a smoke there,
the aim on display, some beautiful shooting,
and that's a tough situation.
Vibridge didn't get blind there,
he was actually looking straight down,
so the flash didn't really catch him.
It's going to be the first tactical timeout from Betboum.
So fierce back on the May, you just saw there in the transcription.
I don't know, the operas, I think,
take the phone from Longbeke.
So you went from the team.
They can't throw a lot of utility besides flashers.
They can't like Molly or Nadia,
and then also you can simultaneously fall back and maintain long control.
If you're on ramp you're kind of stuck it down everywhere.
React, thanks for the 14-month timer, thank you very much.
for a moment. Double nades ready for palm. Catch that.
Back to Jazz on his jaw. He hasn't won that AK anymore. Still scaling fast.
This is going to force cemetery again. They're so consistent in hitting him with that. They
know he's got a preference. On the gaps they're out.
and you're right they're already striding out long no one home from the CT side
but you can't really fight for short you feel like you're in a bit of a box
they're coming fast up this is brutal rapid kept at bay by the flame good pick from Jukes
sure but accelerating his boomage inside again control of short just in time to
they have molly to prevent this or anything
site conceded Krebbeni goes forward and oh Krebbeni's found Flamas
sorties looking for you walk it off dude what a psycho no way no way you did this
I just literally, no, Krebbeni, brother.
Bro, this got such large balls.
Bro, how does Krebbeni get into these places when he's dragging his balls everywhere with
him, dude?
I don't, I don't know the smoke they're on, Dillard does.
I think he was trying to be a little bit tricky with that.
They are on, he's on some psychoship right now.
the devils in the details here the difference could have been made there if
it was deployed and he again doing a great job of just alleviating a lot of
the pressure running up long is the late piece just preventing this one right
he's crazy man finds the gaffer in a smoke dildos looks like it well I did not
watch long though I think he was hoping that maybe they all cross their finances
are humbled here on the T side they get 2900 lost into the next but it's a
three-round run from foot and they make it four to be the longest streak on the
map so far. It's going to be a bad news eagles player. You know, the fact that it's the
orp is part of this. The two of you type that. It's a little bit concerning. What you're
saying makes a little bit more sense. Yeah. It's not something I would have considered.
But then you say it sounds smart. So like I should say that with the sound cues, a flash
short, man, the jet steps low and no one heard it. But this is concerning because it's the
The AWP is gonna be flashed off the line. There's so much YouTube for this the smokes. They're the mollies and not
Jugs needs to shut them down in the choke cemetery. We'll be forced off of this
Here comes the eruption pace change
Yeah
use that times task with the plan is magnet jesson this awkward moment you
can see that buys more time for the CTs to close the gap and work out their plan
on the way back in image given time to jubilee oh jubilee and he's got all
these details as well
I can't guarantee he would have to go wide on an off angle he's not gonna do it just walks into his demise
boom it makes it advantage this B site bomb ticking up to longs and demon feel
My boomage has set himself up to succeed here.
Again, a power position for the AWP adopted.
And that time takes away, going late.
Easy for boomage.
With only tech nine to the big Kevlar.
Overrun on the B site.
Yikes, man, that is rude.
Beppu and Fribe.
Every time Foot looks like they might get this driver seat
a little bit, I feel like Beppu is getting
in the force lines.
Like, force lines.
But I think once the setup is identified, Beppu.
have boom it should must be either taking the prep from the boss man or doing the prep himself
but he went straight to tunnel parked up was ready for that so much we just had to get one more or
there must have been a push somewhere so accounting for Trebeni who did go around the world
we're gonna lock horns again two rounds left in this half
damages ahead of the flames that's sailing forward
touching the damage mainly from the YouTube promise does it
naughty find cemetery the break good pick
Kroben he's playing a forward disruptive position all there is walking out
mid on this
oh wait there's a flash belongs he's in trouble
oh my god
oh what man no put
just run run run run what they know it's the B player
Oh my god, poor guy, poor guy, poor guy.
When all your rotation's died, they hit tap and they say a D player.
Crazy mom, I guess that.
Everybody just looks at the smoke.
Hey, how you doing, buddy?
Oh, man.
And they'll scrap together while they can here at fault.
The final round of play of the half.
You can see how pre-meditated that was, right?
That back's turned ready to pop through the smoke.
Mango just, listen, dude, I'm eating a lot of mangoes, really.
Back no, back no.
Tango people go way harder.
Yeah, he's playing well.
Reaching the main guns!
Good flowers, go home.
Alright man.
Just how quickly Bebun can accelerate this.
You don't really have an awful lot to block with.
Next thing you guys are going to talk about, Cemetery is the other name that you guys keep calling on.
You guys are getting out of control.
Excuse me, it's a mid to bay.
Yeah, but still Cemetery's still here.
Oh my, he's so blind.
He's the open up storm.
He's set him up for brilliance.
Breaking through the defenses.
Flood getting torn.
Piece by piece, falling into place.
Fat Boom 4-7 on this T side.
Only Krobani, he's been put up a good fight.
some impactful frags even if it is only four and it will stay that way on the
half-time break that boom in the lead in it for the knockout bloater foot
bro I just thought well dude he was really full fucking
they popped before the smoke they caught him off guard it was nice it was a
candle that worked hi guys I'm running an ad heads up you're not missing shit you
look absolutely stunning don't forget to follow the stream podcast is out we're
recording another one today. Tickets go on sale June 23rd, a Tuesday after the
major for my land. In Vegas again!
primer and she takes this one with primer. Thank you guys. Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
And you podcast, like you said, if you've already listened to two episodes,
you're caught up. We're recording one today though. So hopefully we'll have it up by tomorrow
for latest Wednesday. So if you guys have enjoyed it so far,
Yeah, we're gonna record later after these games.
What's the podcast called I can't find it on Spotify in queue sir like you're in queue
for faces or you just do x-ray for a pod podcast and put the Spotify link if that's
3 listen down thanks for the three month primary thank you very thank you and
then we do release the segments on YouTube
why not do it live no no really fun to do it live it just makes it harder to
I just did everything. More tech stuff, I don't even stream it up, I have hoots.
Like, let's try to chill a little bit, because we have panic attack every fucking time, and we don't know what's happening in the map.
I have to say, don't scream so much, we are repeating inputs 3 million times, we are repeating things 5 million times.
We know we have to clear this thing, we don't need to pressure up.
the court is all spiking
they're filming
they're spiking
Understandably, four major rookies on that foot roster, you've managed to fight back
from a 0-2, what felt like a condemnation at the start of stage three.
I think the pressure is something that's hard to define, but essentially it is stress.
I'm feeling it now.
Mortal next to the 28 month primary, thank you.
And it affects everything, your decision making, your aim, your grip on the mouse.
Suddenly that chair doesn't feel right.
Did it do his prime for this, he's that one tap on the swing, hasn't been able to find
our first bullet accuracy but they're starting to advance and Alters are in the psych, Symmetry
hits it on the long-range P250 and Magnajez Gouche, Glamour's caught on the jump, good
work from Crabeni, patient in the lower tunnels, has got foot set up to succeed.
A must-win pistol for their campaign back into this game.
Keep it simple, stupid.
Hold the lady pop.
I can't do it, it looks like that boob.
Hold mid-spirits and maybe press the cat a little bit, hold them there.
It has nades.
You have light and joules.
It's just a boomer here.
He's going to look for a couple of frags to add to the coffers.
So this pistol round will go to foot.
He's just begging for a little overstep.
He might get it.
Found by longs.
Okay, so that one is going to fill them with confidence.
It's going to have to come with a conversion, though.
It's both pistols for foot in the map.
That's what they were unable to achieve in the first half of play.
To that sixth crown comes with just three kills.
And it sounds like a tech timeout has been called.
We'll see how long that lasts. No molly for backplot, so you have to...
Good morning, PD. Good morning.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you guys are all pushing 40.
You guys are literally at work right now, typing in 6-7.
I hope you get a team's notification in the next 20 seconds.
the bias could be looking like. And this is not the moment you want to be having issues
with your in-ears, but see if they're able to fix this for cemetery. Also, friendly
reminder, team's ass. That's just the way she goes.
Press wants you to agree. Holy shit.
So nothing, so might be a little bit longer for us to be able to sort this.
Thank you. Holy shit. Why is it so bad?
Sam just politely sends back a Google Meet link.
He has been making the most of it as the official substitute for that group here in Calo.
He's one of the starting podgers who's been played with Rostorish.
Yeah, but like what if we didn't do that, like...
Flamme is coming onto the team. Flamme is the man on screen. He's technically the stand-in.
On loan, also benched.
On loan again.
So it is a weird scenario to say the very least.
And yet it hasn't stopped them
from putting up a fight against stage three teams.
Hoping to avoid squandering
when the two zero start to the stage.
I found Boomich's interview regarding that
really kind of interesting, intriguing,
just talking about how he's like not visualizing playoffs,
even when he was two zero.
I think the interview was after that two zero.
He still talks about the fact that the 2-3 was possible. I guess maybe you know keeping things realistic
But that's all the time they've dealt with the moguls and falcons my company is teams
And so you just and three of those four names. Oh shit are in the playoffs
So it looks like that dude is hoping a I actually takes his job based on what he just put but
Yeah, I've had phones in front of thousands especially knowing that you've just converted that pistol and
Joel's stuff you
I'm able to convert off the back of it. Yes, right. You need to do it again now
I've sort of been impressive throughout this season like last year in the late stages
They started to make a name for themselves. I don't think anybody's dead
Question the firepower output of these players and they are young men
They are only going to grow in their experience
I think to have expectations for their match with four of the five of their first major to go to playoffs is insane
But both teams would be quite happy to have drawn each other in this 2-2 game
That's a fascination
Someone's gonna make it and
The bracket in Tatters, but there's a conversation be the shit the desk never got D-Dot so much because we're program before
back in my here you are while we got a tech pause back in my day on story
plugged in our game is the matches on lounge we're getting DDoS so much that
they then paid for all of us to get VPNs for our homes so that way we wouldn't
lead to our P's on Skype mostly and then that then after that rules and stated
if you did get DDoS that your team forfeited because the games we're
getting delayed like not just like hours like days
the ZDOS team got so bad at one point when me and Simon were on the same team
together that I used to make a joke that it was the counter strike equivalent of
like playing in weather and we had played in a lot of DDoS teams because our
games were always the most bad on the lounge or summit on the team so yeah we
were used to it that was the first time I ever beat Jordan nothing Gilbert when
is on complexity. Our maps got DDoS like fucking crazy. Holy shit. I'll never forget.
I R R C nothing like joining a channel before you knew how to hydra IP and this is just
This is a good place to play.
Oh, wow.
No
Don't lose the second round chill for me. I know you're you always feeling dangerous
I need to relax. I want to give you this. Oh
Oh
In that second round conversion, they're gonna unify they're gonna strike exactly in unison
He actually turned back around
That is brutal
Jesus Christ what a call from boom how little information was given how did he know he started immediately moving
Magnetges and himself over to be right at the start of this round
Holy place the bomb
It's against them but Zorty doesn't have any problem finding the trade cemetery into mines expectable windows swing
And now they know the buyback on the other side
It's gonna come through fortunately extra 600 bucks for foot cemetery. We're gonna take this long spawn
So what he's got your thoughts he's got the opening gel trap any gets an empty hands for the scowl cemetery
charging to try and find something on the long side and couldn't get the long
peck. You get long control but oh my...
In untearing this.
Yeah, Demons got the scout. Demons got the bomb. He's hit the shot.
Tags up Magniges. Information.
Alright, man. You gotta get out of there, man.
To try and lend a hand. The whole squad, in fact, completely evacuated.
Look who's on the line.
Saulty's AWP. After all, his hard work is clutched.
Now he can make another incisor. Just walk into there to my...
Saulty removes launch.
Yeah, why not right honestly just get the kill the next time
They actually just got bullied for 40 seconds straight and this one's gotten out of control
They just got stuffed into a fucking locker
That boomer in the driver's seat you can almost taste those playoffs and this flash
Reblind mice
So then he was out the scout last time he did this on the CT side found a couple of times it's glocks around us
Man trying to lock it long rallies off a shot pressure on flammas. That was actually like
I feel for a flit in that scenario. That's just like water around in a bedroom.
But holy fuck imagine being in this river on the foot side of that round.
That is so emo.
position we were discussing magna jazz is going to be presented with a couple of bodies with their
back turned out to be good they check it they get the information and are searching into what's
Sorty a HG grenade that could find something
That was a Glock, that was a Glock
That's bomb, that's bomb, fucking tunnel
Wait
He has to hit this!
He's lost the bomb, Magga just takes it away
Brutal!
What is this?
His fucking Glock is happening
What the Glock is going on?
Recovered weapons
That's the bomb
Needed out from the window
Houseboos, stabilizers
They're whipping, damn, they're whipping!
Nade hurts
Flamers push it through
They group up a bit more damage
It's the op on longs he's gonna have to go down to the farmers. It's into drugs
Crazy round
Oh, man, I know it's a blocker. I know they don't have her but they needed that so bad, bro
They had a they had that they had that run
They want to extend their major hopes and dreams it needs to be all dude
They're just three rounds away, and they've just been so much more clutch the nerves
They're just listening and they are getting away with these rounds snatching them
Solo Vex was a private deck you men
Any other private?
So they're still right there. They're keeping the pressure on they just have to break through
You've given the pistol to start the second half and wipe those woes away
It's just the block right what's he meant to do?
It's not the weapon for the job
nice one
see that's not a crazy celebration and yeah understandable for some things to the
problem I say that now after I know what happened but honestly maybe nice
thing is better trying to shoot an MP9 when you got locked up like he's just
they've been able to go on a full control. Run around like a psychopath.
Alright, I just could punish over the top of that smoke.
Unless he's passed up just enough, but he can't perforate.
Which comes over to lend a hand.
Now he's rotating right-fluff.
I said he's gonna get killed as well.
He got killed a couple of times and the man got killed.
If he wants to call a gamble, then he'll stack over towards B.
No, he's suffocating from the还有!
Thank you.
That's more where that came from from.
Moomish throw is out of HP.
Shire the mark.
Light Tarmish is done.
and
the
man they are just getting
to the by Dilla desk just on that pixel staying so dynamic he's got that
information one way jokes finding it but he needs my good just
boom it's your left face to the party my partner thank you another multi one of
your questions are here was wasn't it well you're in here too bitch what a way
the rifle. No choice but to take a partial. 12 feels destined for that
boom right now. Is this fairy tale? The fact that they've made the run from stage
one all to this 2-2 game. Not gonna squander the stage wins against
Amy Gladiators, Liquid, Gamer Legion, Monty, Mongols, Falcons and looking to add
foot to that list. Playoff's worthy. Overcoming the hardships, the curveballs in the roster.
Now you just need two rounds, and all of five of them will see the L'Access Arena for the first time.
For foot it is now or never.
The individuals from that boom just don't seem to have been consumed in the same way
Foot have by this moment by the pressure.
They're playing it their way and they're doing it at the clutch as you highlighted.
They've managed to keep their call under that pressure.
Fanny mid-presence into a long pop.
Okay.
Just let them stand and fight.
I wonder if they're even going to try to go up-cat or if they're just going to hold their
long spot.
Oh no, I think they're going to actually go up-cat, they're not just feigning it.
They're going to try to get a little Poppy for an A-Split.
They've moved, yeah, they've moved to Nose, Flammus, oh.
They've read that perfectly.
They've read this all the way.
They've read this the entire way.
They're not this thing, higher way.
You are fucking cooked, but Bethan is a gashash.
You're literally getting spotted with two players top dead
and they know that you're coming along.
You are fucking cooked.
They've watched a few of your demos.
their last round of the major we're gonna go through at the end though oh my god
i am shocked you actually went to re-smoke that
trying to fight his way back into another round of play on dust 2 there's a chippin from cemetery
Dilladez alone up against wait wait wait wait wait
Okay, ooh
Demon has done what was required of him to extend play. Okay, it was Zordy fun of that opening pick
It's hard to believe they've just called that one back, but they scrapped for it
Five round game now
It's hard to see how they piece this together
together. Here's that opening
pick. That's all he's not
missing. He's in absolutely everything and continues to add openings to the tally. Six
and one after that. This pushes straight up mid. Yep. They're taking some confident
moves. Just trying to throw that up a card like that. Demon court. Look in the wrong
way on the top of the card. Then they recede. Another opener for Brevroom. Demon dead this
time. What a beast. My pickums are foxes. It's okay. Mongols killed my pickums earlier.
So, I mean really what killed my pickums were my 3-0 picks. My 3-0 picks combined with my
advancing teams I lost four points like that's so
Right under the armpit
Bombs down
Shooks coming out door
And he won it. Whoa
It's exactly what they needed to facilitate the plot where they're so close.
That was bulls.
The guys in Boom ain't missing much.
Flamas late from Tans.
This would be fucking crazy.
Tension mounting.
These are the two that like to pop off though too, if they went around.
Gives them options on the approach.
Buying time for Flamas to get up close.
Using every second that bomb timer gives them a chance to have a window.
He has to track the moving targets.
Loads are under him.
They've done it.
They're boomed to the playoffs.
The first time for all fine.
Oh, my God.
Holy shit.
What a game out of Batburn, bro.
but it will be all of their first time in our stunning Lancaster arena.
It's hard work for Vepburn having to cobble this together throughout their major.
The playbook starts to run thin.
They think they're going to squander that 2-0 from the Swiss in the stage.
But Fadiladaz, this man was one of the nine pandas denied the opportunity to play back in Copenhagen.
Have a look at the playup bracket, but that's crazy.
I saw it, dude. I saw how scared it is.
Because there's not going to be Falcons affected as...
Oh, you're not not going to be Falcons affected.
There's not going to be G2 affected at all.
Footer eliminated.
Batboom winning this chat did just give us the probably the worst playoff bracket we could imagine with their main teams.
A journey that began all the way back in stage 1 through every twist and turn.
Batboom have come out the other side and that is exactly what is so admirable about this squad.
Despite their fair share of challenges along the way, despite them feeling at stand in Yanko, they still make it to top 8 at the Colo Major.
Major it's absolutely impressive stuff from boomage and and the squad and then props to him and and their coach as well from dealing with
What's the bracket? I don't want to say it back to even making the major like you have to remember they're going to these regional lands
Tier 2 tournament just to a poor enough point. They had two standings like there's all teas and even the main opera for this
Oh, I'm not saying that boom just to be mad at them. Just saying that we're making this game literally made that back to the cluster
Fuck a five-man roster with two standings
So it started long time before stage one really for bad boom and then
I saw the 6th one recently back here.
He's so dominant against lower tier opposition, you know,
not doing so well against the top five teams, but you don't need to.
Like they, they, they earn their spot here in the 2-2 game against foot
and they absolutely dominated today for a spot in the Langsess.
Absolutely.
It cannot even argue that they deserve this to play against a nightmare opponents here.
Mongols starting off with the Falcons a play vitality fury and even thought as all these are teams
You really do not want to play against is like a playoff run just to get to the play
So fair play to them and I've got a shout out as well the coach like you mentioned
This team has really evolved and kicked on the stage this year and it seems like he's a being the biggest change
Yeah, against all the odds despite every single challenge they face bet boom make it back inside
But Langsess of course, it's a place that a boomers might have been a little bit familiar with congratulation
Bad boom for it, all bad boom for 9Z boys.
It's crazy emotions to be back on the Major and with standing we got the playoff right now, it's amazing feelings and I'm really happy.
That first map, it's just that you could do nothing wrong, you were having a great game individually, how much easier does that make calling when you have that individual?
After two lost matches versus Vitality in 4M, I understand I'm an experienced player and I should prove it in the last match
because it's 2-2 and it's really stressful for everyone, I think, and the foot is a young team.
I understand I show myself in all.
Bumic, huge congrats. We were mentioning how you were going to tournaments with stand-ins.
You were able to get the uncertainty around your roster, even in Atlanta and here.
How are you guys able to play on such a high level as a team with all these different players coming in and out?
Oh, you know, the first thing, it's don't feel the pressure because of the result and just trying to,
day by day, with our coach and a lot of work, you know, that's all, nothing special.
I have to ask you about the veto today. It was weird when we both ran the same map and you both struggled in an overpass.
in an overpass, how was this for prep and who decided which maps you were going to risk?
Because you played very risky today with the Vio.
You know, we understand that both teams are not playing Ferna and they should ban it,
or maybe we are ready to play if it will be the third map.
And we understand that they will ban Nuke because it's a shaky map for them and win percentage.
So we were understanding that we will pick this too because Nuke is banned, so everything was going like on our plan.
to expect of the maps that were played today.
And I have to ask you as well, because Magnus Jez, he joins the team last year,
he was a very aggressive player to put it lightly.
How was it being for you trying to call on the player who was that aggressive?
Because he doesn't seem as aggressive now and it seemed like it's more...
You know, Magnus Jez is really like a star player.
He can do a lot of work and he's had a really good understanding of CS,
like what is happening.
But I think today he was a little bit like...
I don't want to say stressed, but I think he really wants to win and do it to the playoffs.
So sometimes I was feeling on T-Site on Dust2, we were a little bit stressed because some
situations I think we lost like it was half 7-5, but still I understand like it should
be like 9-3 or something like this.
I think you got a T-Site on to show about it, what are you going to do?
I am not just talking about this round, it was the e-code that you basically won.
And first, even with the buy, both you and Zorty stay on Glocks, obviously buy a lot of utility.
So was this just something that in your prep you knew, like if you had a round like this,
if you do a B-exec with a lot of utility, it can just work against how they play?
I know it's just our B-pop, but at the start of the round I say, like, let's do eco-grass
when one scout, and let's play full buy round and next, but Magnus just like say, okay guys,
We can buy a little and try to do the B-pop, you know, and it works.
Yeah, and you mentioned about managers and maybe a little bit stressed today.
Did you have that feeling about food as well, that they were feeling the pressure a bit on the server?
Yeah, I think they have really a lot of pressure. It was feeling like on the server, you know.
Unless you guys have any more questions, I just wanted to ask you one more, Boomage.
We've been talking so much up here about your redemption arc as a player.
as a player. It's amazing to see you back. What does it actually mean to you to prove
it yourself, to make it back to a major playoffs?
It's everything for me because I really love Counter-Strike and this is life for me. It's
great emotions to be back on the lands, big tournaments, a major and right now play of
the major so I'm just happy. It's nothing I can add.
We absolutely love having you back. Congratulations, we'll see you in the lifetime, sir, in a couple
days. That is right. It's 41 minutes. Yeah. I thought they won really fast.
Only one more spot remains today, but bedroom are going to be advancing at the expense of
foot. And this was, um, I mean, obviously, Matt, one goes without saying statement way
to start off the series. Yanko. And I think the insight that he was providing us there
for that dust too as well. You guys want to game a little bit? He's talking about, he's
got to remind himself. My set up a server game a little bit. There's so much knowledge
and death underneath Spomits that are super impressive to make them.
And you just love that from a leadership side, right?
Understanding like, hey, I'm a major champion, you know, like, I know how to do this.
I've been here before I have some young guys who, you know,
so for those of you that are wondering what's going on, there's
Navi still coming up. It's just there's a 40 minute break.
So we'll take a little bit of a break from that and then we'll run it back.
Sound good? Sound good? Sound good?
Let's see.
of the
You guys want to play some retakes together or do you guys want to surf together?
Wait, can I do this?
Yeah, I kind of want to watch you guys serve low key.
I wonder so it's a little early.
I wasn't supposed to do the sponsor thing yet, but I am supposed to be working with
xplay.
So if you guys are down, I might, can I run up a whole server server?
I'm just seeing what I can mess around with right now.
It's a little early.
I wasn't supposed to do it this early yet, but whatever.
Can we serve?
Oh, damn.
these are all the presets
Damn
Damn damn damn. I was really hoping I could make a whole ass search server for you guys. I would have been fucking sick
Damn, I would have been sys like fucking we'll run some retakes
Yeah
What what the that I said I said what hey hey
Hey, that's not Dallas
That's not I now no no
Okay, okay
Where are we going bro, where are we going?
So Jesus Christ
Hop in hop in hop in hop in
Create the match well crates are real good. I'm ready except accept the weighties except again. What the fuck is this except faster?
I'll go copy IP we run it dude. I haven't played CS in a few days. Can you guys take it easy on me chat?
Please take it easy on me guys

it's not even like popping up what the fuck is this
hello yes what the fuck oh there we go
I did it's a clap on okay I'm used to working with that for the classrooms that makes sense
Yes, if I'm playing the game, we're playing some retakes together with xplay hashtag
ad.
All right.
I think also, what, wait, did I get bullied out of my own fucking server?
How the fuck did that happen?
Hey! Get the fuck out of there! Let me in!
Let me in!
Oh shit my mouse is plugged in that's at least full battery.
I thought we'd just watch while people do like to watch around here that's for sure.
I planted that shit let me go holy util this is toxic watch.
Access to the gift is thank you thank you.
Holy, dude, I have not played in a minute.
Holy shit, this is rough.
Dude, I'm like moving and the game feels so fast right now.
The game feels so fucking...
One going Palace W comes calling in retakes
All paths out and down look at that W comes the W comes who he's fucked them up. That's gonna hit that's gonna hit
Okay, let's get you back to bed dude. I'm locked in there

I
My gets it free to kick someone let a one kid. I mean you could join the lobby. I think I posted it earlier
But actually, you know if you guys want I could I could get you guys the IP to the surf server. It's an exploit as well. Oh
My lordy
Move it, move it.
You the lanky here?
I got you guys.
Bro, what is that move?
Hit your jump dude, hit your jump.
I need to double you guys up, hit your fucking jump dude.
I want VIP to the surf servers. I think if you just subscribe you to x-play you get yours like you get a reserve slot
I believe so anyway
They also have like the skin changer stuff which is server side, so it's not like the backband shit
And I think it gives you access to that if I'm not mistaken
Which you know for the skin grows. I know they like that kind of stuff
of. Kind of like a skin server. Like a skin server, but you're actually playing, you know,
Oh, I dinked him.
Yeah, you guys want to run some surf here once I...
Unfortunately, I think because it's like got so many add-ons and mods into it, you can't
like spin up a surf server.
I tried.
That would have been sick.
I was trying to get us a whole server server real quick
I'm starting to warm up a little bit.
Retakes. I like retakes. What the hell are you?
You don't like retakes?
Yeah, you could workshop a map and set it to surf.
The problem is, I just don't know if it has the settings built in the map, you know?
What was it? These are slingshots.
Yeah, here. GG, GG.
I'll get you guys the search server. Let's exploit real quick. I got you guys should some of my favorites
Which up multiplayer's work like ass. Yeah, they're just kind of cook
Should be right wait no no is it gone
No, that's the one I like
Damn it.
No, I actually lost it.
Dude, no, these aren't right.
Fuck, did it go down?
What is it?
Hmm.
Dude, that's even a go.
God, dude, ah, the server,
I think the server browser legitimately broke.
Hold on, I'll just go here like this.
Hold on, I'll just do this.
It's fine.
I can't remember which one it was.
There was one that I really liked,
because I felt, here, here it goes.
No, dude, the server browser just like breaks all the time.
It's just frustrating. That's all.
I got to be right back real quick though while we serve.
I'll put on some tunes while we wait.
Some tunes.
Oh yeah, it's a classic right away too.
Oh yeah, hold on.
you
I want to gamers. Let's see. What do we got? What's this map like? How we doing?
Is this map good?
Is it chill?
How are we doing?
Is everybody absolutely just the greatest?
Oh shit, it's got speed.
It's on the type of guy to buy deli meat and eat it by itself.
Okay, the fuck is wrong with that pussy?
I mean, I'd rather have a sandwich, but like sometimes I'm just like, you know,
sniping some turkey real quick, you know what I'm saying?
The foot.
It's a Midwestern staple, man.
You bet your sweet ass I'm absolutely open the fridge.
You may be grabbing a slice of cheese like a monster cheese or something.
The foot.
Who is it?
Like, who isn't doing that?
Like, what?
Don't get the fuck out of my stream.
Get get out of my stream. Don't come back.
Oh, guys, my pregnant wife is got her hands on hips behind me.
I just got a quick little glance of her right in my corner of my eye.
Hey, that's a cute shirt.
And she brought me no not that she brought me food chat
What what I do know
How many houses you got now girl
All right, isn't it?
Anyway, you just have to use some words.
No.
I know, there's no water, I just got a monster because I'm so fucking tired.
There's no water in the machine, I put water in there and then I was like, I'm fucking
Blanket on my fridge, ESL Co-Stream rules.
Yeah, ESL is incredibly intimidated by my fridge.
So they've requested that I cover it.
They're getting fridge mug.
So.
that
Oh, dude, I mean, it is pretty cool. It's a good map.
Spooky dookie with a 35 month timer. Thank you.
All right. I got some food in me.
I'm going to beat this map, then we'll go to the coachroom.
All right.
I was too low holy shit
Holy shit
Wait, did you guys see bro going up the ramp?
Who was that? Who was that? I had to turn. I had to turn, bro. Oh shit, they didn't stage
this one. Oh yeah, this actually might be a little tricky then. I'm used to this map
being staged. All right, whatever. Here we go.
Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well.
Oh, stayed.
Holy shit.
The speed is a little bit different
in this one than I'm used to.
Bitch.
Oh, I don't know if I can recover this.
Ah, but.
Yeah, let me be up that shit.
Oh, I'm.
I can beat this. I can beat this.
Chad, do you guys like surfing or not?
Ah.
FU-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T-T!
FUUU-T TOO LOOT!
NIX!
Yeah, we're KZ'ing. I used to KZ'ing a lot.
I hit the wall. I hit the bucket. I'm getting too much speed. Holy shit. Actually
I'm actually getting too much speed. I need to slow down or what if we actually just go faster guys?
What if I just say fucking we just go crazy here? How far can I go? Let's see
What if I just do this and slingshot into a fucking oblivion
You can't cheat these ones though unfortunately
Oh too much speed not enough speed too much speed
Like a down I guess not but I thought I did play the fuck oh I did stage it
tell them I already played in their servers okay pretty sure they're watching right now
but like nobody tell them
whoop where the where the where oh am I supposed to go that way
okay okay wait wait
Okay, this now I kind of wish I one shot it because this just was awkward as hell.
Well, what are my gloves?
These are field tested, but they're like point one field tested away from midway.
I unboxed them.
So to me, they're perfect.
Oh, now we're now we're recovering here, guys.
Oh, I am so good.
Oh, that little surf saved me.
No.
Holy shit.
I barely made that.
Oh, my God.
Where the hell? Oh, I went too high.
You guys want to go in there, though? You can just go to the explain and just check out
the surf servers whenever you want, man. Just like I did.
I
Think God they have this hashtag ad but like
It is so dumb that they I feel like the community server browser thing actually just breaks all the time so obnoxious
So fucking like like actually
Bulls ash pointed out what you take on how G2 or how like
To be able to put up a fight versus not be if these kind of issues are happening
where do you see them fall honestly they have to put up a fight because if they
don't it's like how much faith can you as an organization have in the roster
right where'd you where'd you go as well yeah because like my favorites we've just gone again
we've saw they've just all night and marty says move positions once a new ingame week
heavy guns perform in friction time we gotta wait we gotta wait mickey next to the 70
months and you also made you know you said you're open for offers for klim right who's
That's the promotion, right here.
team here, maybe make an argument for this. And I've seen the game so far and it feels
like they are just not even close to the level right now. I think the kind of more in the
7th to 8th best team, from what I've seen performance wise, it's been kind of all over
the place. However, I would say, when your best player suddenly becomes your worst player
in this randomly in this event, like he's been so consistent from McCarthy and now he's
just absolutely nowhere. And this makes things different because you're used to him getting
the entries, finding the multi kills, having the impact and suddenly well this doesn't
work randomly at this tournament. Everything looks different. I'm sure you've experienced
as far as a coach and you think something's going to work. It has been working and it doesn't work.
Yeah I think the problem is also the title of Alexi B's HLTV interview is now we have the firepower
to win some of these rounds right and he you know pointed out Makazi and wonderful being the main
reasons for that and then and why they were able to get better results and yeah he picked the worst
time sort of to have a bad tournament it's been bang average i think one rating so far for the
yeah he's been banged and see how good he was obviously the MVP of the pro league season 23 right
and uh in a lot of these contests he's been leading the way for not great oh there he is
oh as much in atlanta where they lifted the trophy it really hasn't been anywhere close to
what we're used to seeing from him this year here at the major yeah epl was truly that kind of
breakout performance right so many highlights in that grand final uh as well now brush it on
resolve i mean this is a million dollar question like they're playing math matches they have a new
chore that has had such consistent form has had so much impact and then they seemingly fall flat
what can you do from the outside how much can you actually help somebody to get comfortable and
get back in their groove again well i think the main thing you need to do is have a conversation
with him, one to one, because you know he has the skill, he has the quality. Is he maybe giving
too much impact on the Major? Is it too much of a big deal for him? Talking with the sports
psychologist, which you know he has all the skills. He's got a consistent game, his fast
headshot, he's a great entry fragger. Suddenly something has changed quite clearly. What is it?
Because when we saw all these tournaments, when he has a good tournament, Navi win Arkham Second
nearly every single time, and now he's down at 1.008, and this is now become the bit and wonderful
show with Emma chipping in and just hoping that Kazzy comes back at some
fight and this is potentially the last chance for him to do that. Obviously not
the only reason that cost them that a potential victory versus Falcons yesterday
we'll dive into that one. It's so hard yesterday. I think we got to hear a bit of a
pretty much interview from him. Emma played quite well as well. His face is that he was pulling by his fingers today, understandable to say the least.
I've been there for you. You can't really cry on camera behind the
I saw the we'll talk about some of the room and then the sort of not believing what you're seeing sometimes from your players and
Yeah, he was visibly frustrated in that game
He was incredibly vocal during the timeouts and he did to you like there
He feels like they were just giving too much space to the Falcons and not playing in their face enough
To to disrupt them right and then and that's not sort of what they talked about before the game
Yeah, I think he kind of he isn't he's a very particular type of coach
He isn't the guy that's going to motivate them is going to hype them up when they're down
I think he kind of puts the onus on the players if they're struggling
It's on them to use the techniques that they've talked about with the sports psychologist and bounce back
And he's going very directly with the playstyle and the game gets a little bit hectic in there
So, you know, you understand why he's getting a little bit frustrated. It'll be fair
There was plenty of reasons for that frustration in the tournament
Yeah, they lost some crazy rounds this week.
I mean, that IndieBus game would have made me so mad.
Watching Tessus run out and kill two players B multiple times just running through a smoke that you're holding is just like...
Right, and that's a two before where you with the force
Yeah, we'll talk about like different clips and highlights that you end up losing and moves after the games today
So I'm good and even in the second half like they lose pistol right now
It's even gonna be a 3v5
After the Sagro play from Falcons
But somehow Navi sort of finds a way to to reset a little bit
They have long control wonderful hits a nice shot here on Nico right bit is already towards B. You saw him
Kesuke on this lurk gets punished on the flank rather and you know Tessus is now
making noise because of that kill bit hears him running to CT he's gonna take
the space on mid the teammates are already running back towards B finding the
kill on Tessus now it's a 3v2 and bit just lingers a little bit too long around
mid with the time like he's not really cutting off rotation and he's not
running up B to help his teammates and Kerrigan just books it, him and Monosy
trying to deny the plant so that the time runs out he isn't able to do that but
he still get the kills and bit is too late to the party monosimines the jewel in
the end and they lose this round as well like these are just mega frustrating
rounds to lose and Navi is the third worst team at this tournament at
converting 5v4s which is something that you would almost never see with blades
squad I didn't notice that Navi had a little badge on the jersey of all those
This is a kind of roundabout afterwards when the CTs lose a shot, which they should do on Blade.
That's kind of cool.
That's kind of crying for this round, and they win it.
Like, I thought it was a point where you were going to cut off and go,
I didn't notice that before.
Nice round. Let's go to the next one.
And it's incredible to even lose out there.
So I understand these facial expressions at times from Blade,
because that is kind of unforgivable at the major.
I just want to really emphasize the importance of this matchup.
Right, of course, last chance to be making it through to the playoffs.
We can bring up that playoffs bracket to see the winner of this,
of course, going to be facing Spirit.
We had a slightly wrong date.
Yeah, like I said, the error, not like I said, which I did.
Dude, this is crazy, Chad.
This is crazy.
This is a crazy bracket, dude.
It was fucking bracket, man.
And we're looking at trying to get those uncharacteristic mistakes fixed.
Janko, are there almost too many for you to see them getting back to their former selves?
I mean, it's crazy because it's happening almost every game against Spirit, it's happened
on Dust2 against Pongolos.
It was happening in that one.
You know what?
You want to know why this happened, right, guys?
Feel like themselves.
I don't know what it is.
because my three hours of the
totality that we're in a trophy at the time of the right
totality is that they had plenty of
they fucked my kid comes and now we're
all they did this can be
this is struggling right and there's
not much a coach can do you know you
can't make this about me
I don't know which depth in 4v2s
and 5v3s kind of sure there's just
too many different situations who's low
HP who's high HP which names do you have
how quick is the rotation how much time
is left on the clock right like you can't
For every single possibility like you just need to be good at the fundamentals that the players need to take stock of these rounds right and
Realize what the situation is. Why didn't you pick different rules because I'm stupid
What do you want for me?
Callers away. You've been here for as long as you have
Okay, this is nice addicts with a team of parmah, right?
Like it's up to the to the players and they need to step up if they're going to win this game
Yeah, I think this is clearly something going either there and make it about yourself. I'm trying
They played against Spirit, Spirit dropped half a round against them maybe or something
It was one of the most one-sided games you're going to see and then also they played against Falcons
I believe 13-3 they lost they should have got absolutely destroyed by the Mongols but the Mongols fell apart as well
Like I'm really worried because it just feels like this Makazi problem
Is it the main one? Is it the 5u2s? Is it the arguing?
This is looks like the most frustrated team I've ever seen in my life. We did a tier list
They will be S tier absolutely
So the vibe seems off, everything seems weird, and they came to this tournament, Red Hot Yanko, and she's all going wrong.
And I mean, also, just quickly, yesterday was the first time in a long time, where they even remember, I felt like Blade messed up the veto.
You know, Banner moved over Dust2, letting it go to school, like it just didn't seem like it was a...
So nothing plays during the game, I'm running an ad now.
So today is going to be a bit of a different scenario going up against G2.
G2, they do have the map pool on their side.
On the back ground entirely, you're missing none of the game matches.
What do you think guys should be going with?
I mean, the overpass plan is a huge advantage for them.
And especially as well, G2 can't beat the sort of team.
I already feel like that's a massive advantage they've got instantly.
Yeah, Navi are not loving Nuke at the moment, and that's G2's perma-ban, right?
Anubis is open for Navi if they want to go for something like that,
but then also Mirage and Ancient, both of their staples still in the pool, right?
for G2 it becomes a little bit limited. Do you go for Dust? Do you go for maybe
Inferno? I think it's one of those two maps that we'll see as their pick. I think
G2 will go for Dust too because Navi on a five lost streak and I believe Navi
will go for Ancient because G2 on a four lost streak. So we could just see some
punish picks going in which could seem some one-sided game. So here's the Dust
two pick and I believe it will be Ancient. Navi very good in it. G2 normally are
quite good in it but recently Forms gone down good for the Inferno pick. Wow. Do you
Do you know the scene with Blade? Blade likes to go for the pick, it isn't as obvious sometimes so you can have that prep advantage.
Maybe this is something that they're going for here, is a different angle?
I wonder if Dojito would have expected it as the decider, then you're not really winning out on prep as much.
I was expecting Na'Vi to pick T side on Dust2, because their CT side starts the last couple of times on Dust2.
Yeah, not being good whatsoever and just to maybe take a bit more stock of it with your game plan and yeah in the end Navi after yesterday's game there the ones that we do out in Ubus I think G2 probably surprised by that and will take it and between Ancients and Mirage they go for Mirage so I think that's really beneficial for G2 they avoid Ancients somehow in the series.
Yeah, I'd Ancients it down to 100% and I like to see Mirage lost because both teams are in great fall on this map so we could have a great one there, expect maybe a one-sided Dust2.
have some tricks of this league though. Yeah I would expect that at the very least if we're looking
at these two organizations obviously super storied NTS and it's a it's a bit of a shame that we have
to see one of them eliminated who is the pressure on more in your opinion. I think Conavi they are one
of the contenders coming into this tournament right like they they had their eyes on the
Mr. Man, X-Men 17, I can beg you.
The bottle takes me two months.
Nice.
E7-Six months.
Navi either T side.
Thank you, man.
Blade system is all about taking zones, taking map control.
Guys, prediction's up.
I'm not going to go to the early tier.
Get in there.
GQ is a team that is very active on the CT side.
They have set aggressions.
They have set mid-round aggressions.
So it's going to come down to Ken, who's going to do better?
Navi at punishing those reactions or G2 shutting down Navi?
The heavy guy.
I think the pressure for sure is mostly on Navi, but like I said, who do you guys want to win this?
I don't know, I feel like Navi is the best team coming to the Major, but they do look like chase players.
Some of them just go over the line.
Well, it's just relative shit compared to how they look coming in.
Some star players are kind of missing. What is the future here going on?
There's some sorry lines, are there coach counts? I'd look to see if you saw...
Let me save money.
I'm going to lose money.
Very quickly, gentlemen, predictions. Don't often do this, but this is a big one. Who are you going with?
I got Navi 2-1 because of the stable.
I'm gonna save G2 like with the map pool. I think it's a bit surprising
How they took it with the decider. I think G2 can surprise here and get into the playoffs
Well, the stylusic clash is ready to get underway for one last time in stage three
It's G2 versus Navi for a spot in the playoffs
Is this crossfire looking to be brutal?
He's herring through the falcons.
Get off the cover!
I'm only worried about the backstop,
but this is not even thinking about it.
We've been denied.
G.S.U.K. and the Sion want the police to hang up.
You'll see the light of the world.
They want the boss still going.
Ah!
I'm glad K.R.I.S.K. incised it was comprehensive.
That's what you wanted, U.I.G. 2.
Oh!
Oh, no! It's Sion's!
Brickhead Killers!
Art has the ace!
And your skills, in my mind, it's another molecule, and heaven's gone!
Not gonna challenge them, but we're going for another one, and we're going for another one!
Rather than having to go on at that site, you know how the sun's out for you?
Rediffle, careful what you say, bro. She has access to my account too, bro.
for the last two weeks we've seen a total of 32 teams here for I am
ready most of you are the most sought-after friends in the chat man
who is chasing the train but hoisting the cologne major trooper
she said they had him hold on one sec
23 squads have been eliminated in 7 away in the playoffs
the mastermind is quite strong
I was the only one doing predictions around here guys
there's one spot left
is it going to be G2
or is it going to be Navi
well she just evil laughs in the bathroom
I'm going to keep it above check
Ground find out
I'm gonna take a duel I lost
Zoe takes with the 14 Marcell takes to the 37 does he takes with 15
The person about the most no I don't lose money on that stuff most of the time not only but like
99% of the time, if you were saving money on Twitch, the streamer is like, negatively impacted.
Very rarely, they take the cut from the streamer, but I think it's like one time, and it's something that I enable.
From 11 6 could not close that map could not make it to playoffs now have to play again today, but a well-earned pistol
Does YouTube buddy do multi months you I have no idea man punching up they also could have beat the Falcons in this stage
This is G2's first opportunity to secure the Lancis
this event. Real shit, Greg, real shit.
Map-wise prediction for this game.
Slide edge to Navi this map. I got 13 to 10 type of game.
type of game. I feel this way just because I feel like Wonderful played incredibly well
and if you can even get kind of close to that level, it can be some great things for them, you know.
to play on Ema's contact
trading this fight
Wonderful helps keep it very very clean for heavy. God getting sandwiched. They're closing in
On all sides and because he gonna get which is crazy to think about because I was telling you guys to like wonderful in this team
Is such a supportive element against the force out of all like top teams
He's probably the most supportive opera out of them. Why teams go for them even without bomb plants
the second rounds can absolutely I mean just just being blundered the problems of Navi
really do kind of like revolve around Mikaze that's the same thing I talked about JL when
JL was the best player or one of the best rifles at 424 so was Navi and then when JL
started to lose for him started Navi and Mikaze was doing really well this year and
He's starting to struggle or he's just playing pretty poorly like and in this stage of the the major and it's just like
It kind of starts falling apart
Charging the smoke why Bench Jail from a cousin once again guys jail bench himself. Nobody bench jail except for himself guys
The kind of advantage is significant enough. Now. We don't need to worry even in
and
only a two man behold
it's not not a not a bamboozle or something
or like one of those I benched myself before he cut me things
he was burnt out and he took a break
I'm tired
and
I mean
saying how I really feel right now
I think because he's better. It's a gap. Just don't look at this stage
Yeah, I think he's got higher potential
Spot off flash high
Wonderful lending a helping hand for out towards long. It's one kill for some pious
But that bomb is out in the open and he's not gonna get any further than this now be three and oh
nicely. Not every round, but a lot of the rounds, a lot of the game play.
I don't know, that's why when people say frozen for Emma for example, I really think it's bad because Emma is...
He's like the secondary IGL alongside LexiD, he's a big voice on the team.
But yes, his individual form has been worse, but he's more than just like a guy that's
supposed to shoot hard, which is where people, and he tries to kind of make up words.
Bad performances out of like Mikaze, for example.
Not saying...
by the way, I'm still not giving him a pass, and just like how it kind of happens is it's
like a, it's just a big giant snowball, and it doesn't all fall on him, it just like,
just like not everybody likes to talk about Blade and Navi system, like their system,
you know, is built up with the players and simultaneously negatively impacts all the
players in some way.
Lexi with a clear in the long doors.
Ate it.
Backing out, going to bait them in the two.
That's perfect.
Was he expecting another though?
Have you got dead right away?
And now the short split coming through.
But Alexi in the right place flashes from Ema.
Met to try and help out.
He'll be dead in the hole.
That late flash, like, brutal.
The Lexi blind Mattis going to clean out.
The double lurk log.
They'll get in.
Now, Fima had the right idea.
Might have pulled off a sick little bait and switch
to get the round started.
It's the presence of a second home base for the 35 month family. Thank you
really threw them through a loop
G2 say for me once shame on you for me twice
You can't for me twice double long luck is the perfect counter as RV runaway back turned
to
Gave up long nobody fucking double X logs
Except G2 and round four of the major stage three
They do it quick with some pirates a good little gamble
And he hard baited the suck out of him too.
I think what's more frustrating is,
Imit gets the first kill long, flashes for his two teammates to fight the player's cat,
the flash hit perfectly, and they got like such low value, right?
But that's unfortunate, but how do they not have a better exchange?
That means there's only two players guy. It's a 2v2 and you got a flash from your teammate. How did that not go better?
I think a very cool head for G2
What I'm actually so curious what happened up cat with wonderful done as well
Try and push their buttons though with the orb coming out now opening pick onto the captain
Gives a wonderful open season on this aWP
if he keeps this shit up bro
how scale passed him sure but they paid quite the toll here two players dead
just to get this space out he looks so insane yesterday dude
that would be worth it for g2
that's the next to the 21 month permit thank you and in the moment thanks to the 35 month permit
if you want to take them
regrouping on the mid to b
looking for the weaker of the two but it doesn't make a change after me I don't know
you could break any smoke in the CT sport some pious peeks before it absolutely off the marg
and that's a left side smoke they do have another to get into this spawn and Ema's already used his
nade do they just want to take that fight smoke eventually thrown in here for g2 nerds goes back
to upper tunnels and some pious will join him heavy god is the lurk I mean most favorable round they
they could make for themselves right now in a 3D5.
I'm not doing too much, three question marks.
And there it goes.
This is literally a new 2.0.
Bladekam after that one a frustrating five versus three here for Navi where they have
Same shit, wonderful gets two picks, does great for his team, they're perfect, they know exactly what's happening
A perfect read
Throw
And that's like, that's all on Emma
That is all on Emma
That's still frustrating for you
We need Navi to win right now, my god
I'd be fucking livid
And you saw a bunch of these frustrating moments come in the way of Na'Vi yesterday.
Blade was very, very keen on getting involved whenever he could.
Saw a lot of frustration from...
Oh, did you push the smoke there? Adrenaline and nerves.
They know it should be.
They know it should be, but like, they don't have anything to do anything about it besides wait out the smoke.
And Emma just thought he waited long enough and he thought he was...
He knew he knew what could go wrong and everything did from that point onwards for Na'Vi.
So it's kind of like he made it come true, you know, that's the type of scenario. He made it come true
He's worried about a mid to B walk on his two BT mates because the utils low and and it's still a really hard round for them to hold
And
He's so to try to make up for that
He got nervous, he tries to make a play, and then he made sure there was no chance of winning that round.
Yeah, so I just say nerves in adrenaline.
Wonderful again.
Oh dear, okay, caught off guard in middle, good flash here from the top of mid, that might get G2 out
They know this rifle is on B as well though
The classic, the classic I say is my off course
They still are faking out this A-play, will not be 4k
You get one, you stay kind of forward because you know you, it's the one isn't enough
Crossing mid, Ema's handed away this advantage with heavy god
Finding a killout towards the A site, Alexi, no one day he's up and left B
much noise made by just one guy on this a-play and it's pulled the whole thing
into uncertainty for Navi.
HIT YOUR SIGHT YOU'VE GOT THEM BOTH.
I'm still gonna follow through with this by the looks.
Some pious walking mountain.
I've seen how little they can hit it for me fast.
Well this is a bad example I think.
You gotta get a lot of USBs for armors like...
I know Lexi has his...
for all these things.
But the norm is pretty brutal.
What advantage going his way is he's here very quickly and very quietly. That's a feat that's usually hard to pull off
Sumpire's eyes on the tunnels
Hasn't budged
This flank is coming through now they get the spot bit
As you really want to attempt this he's done big damage had he got still a long ways away
So Sumpire's gonna have another chance on the orb. It baits it out of him time now working against him though
And bit heads for the hills. It's a really nice try for bit
Towing the line between saving and going for it, but there's only so many
Chances you get G2 won't give you a way back into that round
It has to save G2 3 in a row off of their first by round worth the wait
And now everything to play with here for Navi Alexi can drop over that AWP to wonderful that definitely
I thought he had two teammates coming to pick them up
Maybe I missed a little bit of going on
Wonderful that I think he somebody was going to pick it up maybe
New bomb radius the terrible yeah, I'm not really fancy for that rifle
So now V time out but both coaches get in
Yeah, so I didn't do a lot of talking there though. I think he's feeling fine being hands-off right now
G2 showing that they've
Put in the prep work already some of these setups to deal with the Navi
Yeah, just like getting damaged in pit
It's looked very polished thus far from G2 and I think if you saw you don't want to get in the way of that
No, they're really punishing this B bomb site in this game
No, nothing fast nothing fancy
just nice
cautious mid to be hits
Not much you still left already on the side of Navi man attempt something along
You know we see a lot of these rounds or like do you tell me times you guys remember you see a pet for like
Three HG's and fucking Molly smoke at a ramp and then look at right now
We're 118 and look at the utero Navi
could throw his own
a chance here
wonderful man
for the love of squad help this man
just get to A dude
just get to A
don't try to be a hero anymore
wonderful you can't help these bums
if they fuck it up it's on them
dude that's how you gotta play
you gotta
I feel bad, like I'm actually getting mad watching this.
Okay, well...
Not saying Wonderful's been perfect for Navi, but this is the major man in life.
The only kill on G2 was a team kill.
Navi on to know this
Hot under the collar for heavy god
But G2 might have caught themselves a fourth round here some pious not going wide
Locking down tunnels and wonderful is on the other side. This is a locked in round. This is another
Advantage for me. Can we get what's wonderful channel?
I just coming into this map saying naffi how much they've struggled at converting 5v4s
They are the third worst team coming into this game at 5v4 conversion rounds
That is not what you expect from a tactical team like NARV
With the smarts on this squad, but we have seen it round after round of this game
I got a kid on the way to put on the right
3v5s, they should use another here
Yeah, I was like this guy was supposed to be rough
Wonderful picks a man they go right out mid to B. They leave laughing.
I'm gifted in five, one sec
He could go in there with...oh I'm not following him, let me follow.
Gifter sub. Five gifters.
He could check. I gifted him five offline.
Bitch, he deserves it.
Nouch the B-pop.
I'm gonna waste him so he's better at miniing that chest.
Heavy fucking god! Jesus!
Brutal. He killed the fucking fucker over here!
Bit a single kill when all is said and done and G2. I'm crashing out at Navi. Just run through it
Dude, I'm not even like that invested but like dude, what do y'all do it certainly be sounding
This is starting to be a very what do y'all do?
Concise lead for G2 starting to run away on the T side of dust
And it doesn't matter opening
As big as all my pickings in there
And even with advantages Navi haven't been a threat five in a row for the G2 squad
It's such a big round to pick up because Navi found all those kills on the exit at the end
Right, they Lexi got two out of the tunnels. Have you got like the bomb and so G2?
He's not blind but because they killed no one
Look at this third shot through CT.
Brother, wonderful is getting picked every round, his team doesn't convert a single round,
and then they rush B and kill him rotating in the spawn.
I was starting to start to dismap here.
I had the emotions that I would have to like, like, um...
Supplies boosted and G2 so patient out of the gate.
They are, with the exception of that last round, not rushing to anything.
not taking spawns out long happy to see if Navi want to be the initiators of this game
that's nuts man
that's an exception of wonderful they have not trying to trust in their setups but
well that's a great double entry I'm gonna just I'm gonna try to get some love to G2
I feel like I'm just hating on Navi but these rounds have been horrendous like
by g2
These rounds are so bad
I'm half expecting blade to go into an interview like dust on here and be like I'd cut him right now if I could
Like that's what we're at
But it likes to actually hang around and try and fight this you weren't expecting the orb to be there
some pious court by surprise and nerds dealt with on his mid-lurk the bomb
lost out towards cat there's a whole heap of problems here for g2 and now we
have given away some pretty unforgivable rounds on this g2 streak but
this would be the worst if they get to the match is going it back they've got
25 seconds if they want to make a miracle happen oh my god oh my god
There's literally just no way, right?
No, there's no way. There is literally no way.
Please, please just, oh my god, they almost lost this.
Oh my god, they almost got to me by it.
Shaking in the corner, but Navi
Somehow
And even Blake was a timeout after that because my god
That goes very very wrong very very
They throw everything in double up again
Fuckin' rice, man.
Pack your bags, Navi, you're going to FML.
G2, these individuals, when they are feeling it, are so threatening.
One of the very few teams to be able to beat my talent in a B05.
Saw them last year.
They'll play and read the rules of my chat, man.
You should go ask the main chat then.
I'm sure everybody will have a lot of great discussions there.
Or ask your favorite political streamer in the just chatting section.
In the B site in a row. So yeah, again, you lose your advantage, but it's the wonderful
It's on the AWP. It's on the A site G2. No the remedy to the situation
At this point wonderful
You should start getting kicked because like every time you get a kill these bums fucking up
So like maybe just start getting kicked for a second on that be explode from G2
meant to be they were going for a tunnels pop so bitches get to
how that was honestly a good hunt that was a good hunt
last time he connects that first kill it was a good hunt it was a good hunt
I'm just farming the haters in chat
someone's like yeah fuck him
G2 saved that some pyre saw
now their money is definitely cool
the depression
don't be surprised to see G2 forces up they can get 2 AK-47s
yeah you try to get the art from them
fuck you
It's a messy buy, depends on what the call wants to be here for G2 whether they want
to fight for a winning half or if their fight is splitting at 6-6 apiece.
I'd turn that to disservice to G2 with how well they've played these last few rounds,
so they go all in.
Very exciting game.
close out stage 3 of the major still and even score
most of the bad things right I don't know if it was like actually bad you could then
but yeah like the most most impressive for now put the gun down to their feet what with
some of these rounds I missed when I was really bad they'll feel free to eat them or even
come close can be hard to mentally get back in. No surprise on this call.
Chance for that now. Again, it's the B site under the microscope.
It's because they saw this off at me, so they're just going to maybe
all of just trading it out with G2.
This is the scary part of when a team knows you have double off is like,
it feels like he has to move. There's a really strong position.
But it puts so much pressure on McCauze to hold this rush because that's going to be
Oh my god, that works, that works, that's huge, that's huge, that's huge.
Oh!
Why is BIC the greatest of the full time?
He's got spooking!
Fuck it dude, let's go man, let's go, fuck it, I'm here for him.
somebody's finally making it so wonderful work is it completely wasted to you W
and it's not too late to win this half as G2 are put down on pistols in round number 12
why would G2 stop now huh
they're here for a good time not a long time I think I'm good how meant dude what is this
It's clearly been the object of that is wait. He doesn't have it off
It's what the game plans orientate it around. He switched up wait. Did he he potentially drop it expecting to be hit?
But it stopped working and yet they're still sticking to it. Oh
My god, no no no. Oh god
Wait, that's okay, it's okay a bunch a lot of damage my car's reposition buying more than enough last night
That's nice towards the window wonderful. Do not run it on tap
What are you having, dude?
Selfie was sick.
dominant streak from g2 this is this is actually insane that navi should be at
seven here when how many times dude this could have been a touching dominant
half out of them
I know what you just want to touch the fire
wait why is it okay wonderful solo
and so now be against all I didn't make sure the 19 month problem any other
promise from forgiveness because I'm not to run the other way why they let him
play it because it doesn't matter what are they gonna do keep the bomb on it
Get back, don't run dude, just uh, holy fuck.
That guy is fun.
I won't take it.
This is the end of the big game
It's time I break it away from you
How can I dream if I was never awake?
How can it still hurt when I can't feel the pain?
When I'm born to feel the pain?
I'll get a drink if I can't wake it
As I step out of the way every night
The best of thoughts is me
The trees grow out like trees
Weep for our dreams to fall
The place where the last man of the land is
A fallen dream falls
The space beyond your cross
Tell me I'm the one that I must find
The way to fight in my own
In front of my bones
And the way it is drawn
And you'll never explain
Like you wait for your time
To pay your debt
I'll find a way to put it right
Every time I remind you guys of Prime, there's only shit.
Stank takes to the 50 month primer, Ginger takes to the 46, Mike takes to the 170, smell
that Mike.
Lucen takes to the 17, R2 to the 21, thank you.
Saxonist thanks for the 22 chat. I am matching all give some subs on push and kick if you're terrible at making financial decisions
Thank you Dave thanks for the bitties Orion thanks for the two month primary. Thank you
You haven't shouted any either like all good
I have showered in the last 24 hours, but I've not shown it today
Oh
the most decorated orgs in Counter-Strike,
10 times in the Cologne playoffs over the years,
versus G2 looking to continue to punch up
and steal that spot.
A G2 who haven't made a major playoff
since they lost Niko and Monosy,
but they took trophies at the end of 2025.
They looked to level up come the end of this season.
Yeah, do we have such a good stage right now?
I'm kind of sad that we're playing bracket.
We're down when we lost two rounds or what.
Down, all right, all right.
Guys, who's got high contact with each other, okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's fine.
Okay, please fire for us.
Five rounds.
Without pistol, it's fine, guys.
Can we get back on their pistols here, G2?
I did say that, I think Navi, if one of us is trying to performance will win the map.
One of us had an exceptional performance, and Navi looked like shit, but still one and a half.
I'm gonna stick with that, but I don't feel good about it.
the former dead
emails well
before the scraps matters handles them
all you gotta do is keep them interested in all that
nerds has to cover all nerds to save it
and wonderful 1v3 with nowhere to go
ayo
raided
have you got here
no worries just playing clean up on the door for that is
I've seen this line of flank punish a lot of squads here across the Cologne Major, but you trust heavy God in those positions.
Doesn't go too early, doesn't go too soon.
Wait still, it's just right.
Split pistols here.
Catler with the 1913 sub-thrack you.
Navi, SG2 did it.
Long time he's captured you, sorry.
Sorry, sorry.
Okay, minute and a half remaining on the scam train.
Have to go try and bring that energy back in as G2 looks to pull this game back.
Bam bam bam bam bam bam bam.
The lead is right there for the taken.
Big player thanks to the 7 month, 3,7, thanks for 7, 3 months of time dude.
But you're trying to replace Hunter already?
He just started IGLing man.
doing quite well on G2. G2's issues right now in general are less strat oriented, way more
op output oriented. And Mattis has to be a little bit more consistent, or Nurtz has to
find like previous form that he had before growing liquid. Which they definitely look
like they're getting there. First they replace Hunter. That is not where I
We'll go head on with these two last ones.
Pop, pop, pop, pop.
to think with just glocks and Degels in this third round for Navi.
I mean, it's very, very promising to see a Nerth recovery, at least beginning in this second half.
I've been a stranger to rough games out here at the Cologne Major, has Nerth.
Hand out from the spawn the Eagles are gonna find him
And if this get too weird G2
They're trying to wrangle this
Deny it but not able to do so that's a bit of extra money for Navi at the end of this still lead handed over
Hunter is sending an artillery strike from the the ramp right there dude big picture
They lose pistol they still get out we're just sucking everything over there
allow everything to come through in this first round.
And she makes it to the 4 month tournament.
It's going to start soon here for Narvi.
You usually expect Blade maybe time out to come into this,
but he's really used to in that first half,
so it would feel almost wasteful to drop it now,
when there will be many more rounds here in this first map.
Wonderful's open play.
this is where you need mccasey to get going as well
warmed up with a couple of solid b-holds by the end of the CT side
four long start
on this t-half you will have to bail you out
yeah well Navi's doing what Navi does they they're defaulting
I'm a little surprised you two went for a long there I guess they're expecting something maybe kind of
get them believe I'm like whenever Navi's behind though and rounds they stay
away from that a little bit unless they're like really desperate too early
for that Alexi blade this whole round they've been playing with just high risk
call one behind this really maybe a little nervous with this like a
member though they still got plenty of you so still no rotation that's might
start beginning it soon walking across just been a little too quiet here
Get spammed back from the catwalk and that will kind of keep his attention
Homed in on middle
Eventually ending with him cycling over to the right side of the map
Did it very loud though almost feels purposeful. I'll be throwing a utile
Let's try to block
As he trusts his own smoke out long matters deals onto that's a bit
That basically tells you to a novice trying to
What they're trying to do?
Yep.
Yeah, I bet getting killed on early is...
Hey guys, I found the lurker outside of long air. I wonder what they're gonna end after just throwing crisscross moves out mid.
That's the stuff.
Stuck in the mud they're looking frustrated as well come to expect it from this team
Definitely at times have the trouble with the mental
Holding themselves to a very high standard
What I don't like about this down from Navi, maybe this is handsight, but what I don't like is I feel like this was just confused instead
whole way
He fought Chris Cross and I just go okay, like they're not like trying there
It doesn't feel like they're actually trying to play for them too much or like try to mid-round where I feel like Navi could be really well
And right before this one, you know, they they win the trophy out in Atlanta
They're not they just kind of call the strat, which is a little before that trophies in the DPL
It was one where you know, you're having this this big uptick moving in the right direction
Looking at peeking time for the major with that comes a certain pressure to perform. Oh
Oh, Matt's just making a move. Oh, this is gonna be a
tilter. Oh, man. And wonderful by getting ready to throw
midnades.
getting shot down here in another round G2 onto double digits just one kill away
I mean what's Alexi even supposed to do here? I mean I make him class to be crazy. I mean
dude they just don't look good. Can I think? I don't know. Let's go further down the rabbit hole
Maybe that's why they're calling more of these like set x keys to try to help like
In men because they get into it, but two teams to walk through this is making it all too easy for these two because I know exactly what you want to do
No, I think Alexi is improvising I think that's part of the problem on when you're usually like G2 on that map
You don't have to do this, but usually logic is like if you're individually not strong
You try to make up for it with more strategic execution based gameplay, right?
Like you take away, you try to take away the individuality when your individuals aren't playing well.
I think that's actually, that's what I'm saying. I'm kind of going down this rabbit hole at least. Maybe I'm over doing it, but...
Playing within the bomb site, so it's a little bit more restricted
I don't think nerds likes this all the uncertainty that this one smoke causes so gonna move in to clear it manual mode
It's the spot that this was nothing more than a ruse. That's a nice reaction to G2
Low as the nerves of these B players tells the A guys to prepare for a we're just going to do a straight cathead here
And so a re-block
Hunter says you tell as well
That is a bit of a problem for Navi. They might just have to go right through it
and they have their wall down they have every reason to take no money for
site oh my god this is a gamble from hunter
to find this entry but it falls in hunter's favor he is buying a lot of time on this site
time the navi can't afford they're getting cut down one by one yeah man they gotta they need to
make these own best year make this look this shouldn't be the work not in a position to do so bomb is
loose deep in the bomb site and g2 are playing with their food they'll tuck in wonderful one v4
And nothing being given up. This is a g2 who might punish at the end of the clock. Wonderful just has to try and hold on
Who the man's wasn't shying away from this fight
Yeah, but you're having fun offering right now throw the nades watch your rifles go out get slaughtered
Everybody calls your baiter wondering why you're not running in headfirst with an op into these executes
die after time no money life of wonderful right now after you you're
like three main advantages we got multiple entries when they need them
somebody in the main shot just said cut bait or wonderful I guarantee you dude
oh that's why you know the whole foundation of this Navi dust use felt
so shaky because even with the advantages in that first half you saw it
with your own eyes it wasn't enough for them to win rounds and so here when
you're not even getting the entries you know what what's supposed to happen
because he hasn't had a kill since rifles have come out no I mean yeah you just
literally nobody's shooting anyone like it's just a wonderful bit but it's you can't
supporting the pack throwing in these you this you tell the one guy who was
showing up on CT side before we eventually had Navi hold B this map
They just can't facilitate that shit.
This map is so hard to play like when your lurker is playing well, like Bitt is.
This map doesn't really let you lurk too much.
Like it's not a mirage, like a mirage gives you so much freedom to live.
That's to use like Twinkies Hall.
Oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, missing shots, missing shots!
They're missing!
back through the bono cross
other one from a laxie
that's huge man
they all end like me
And Navi pop that head off they find their first entry in some time and they don't waste that opportunity
She too often are via way back into this game they will take it
I think it's just, they, the logic, well one, Navi is really popular, team two, Navi,
just right, they look like shit in this major, but coming into this, they look like the second
best team. G2 has been shaky all season. High highs, no lows. Some people just want to...
popularity probably stronger opponent in playoffs and fight pick-ups, if I'm being honest.
Sure, some people got G2 though. G2 is a very popular team as well. This G2 is not
nearly as popular as they were before, but that's what happens when you lose, like,
Miko and Monosia won.
Okay, you like G2 Marble?
I think it's fun to watch these two because it feels like they really come up with some
interesting rounds instead of relying on like a monosy moment, and then Heavy God still
gives you those really exciting peaks with just individuality.
It's a very fun team to watch.
I just like in terms of name value, it's not as good.
Seek, thanks for your 63 month permit, thank you.
Wonderful, still very much at the back of the pack with this bomb.
Actually alone right now, out in middle.
We'll get caught by the cross.
Alfie, do you want to go with this?
They're going to take advantage of these positions soon.
And it might just start happening now on the back of that Mikazi entry.
Handing him a fight.
Oh, they're squeezing it.
Here comes the squeeze.
Some pious does what he can.
The rest is in Hunter's hands.
The captain of G2.
Overwhelmed, Navi back to back rounds.
And a game that is closing up.
teammates guessing that everybody does their job.
Lurks shut down in middle, perfect util to stop a potential clutch
with low time on the side.
And even that need on the long smoke catches, nerds repositioning
everything that get long, get gap.
Just for G2.
And can you believe that that is there?
G2 never going to be able to hold that unless somebody just individually
And I think, you know, the thing you really hope that doesn't happen now for G2 is Nertz was on a recovery.
He had one kill in that first half, but he's given away the swing round that has led NRV back into the game.
And so you kind of don't want him to get in his head again. It was his recovery that held so much promise.
We are fully in control of the game. Just bring it on your right. Everything is okay.
No stress, nothing.
G2 trying to stay calm.
can't hide from the fact that everybody calm down everybody relax we're
totally not letting this slip everybody take a deep breath now give me your
Molly
why did he go right? Do you think he was paid for close left? Do you think it was a
Double bait on the left
No way dude
No fucking way, dude. Oh
My god, he might be Thomas. Oh my god, wonderful do it
Holy shit, there you go!
That's a bit too straight, man.
Holy shit!
Somebody play the comms back, just relax, they're in control, right?
Immediate timeout again.
Guys, they might be less in control, though.
make a play and boy does he the play that might send Navi into the playoff.
From the brink of defeat and Navi now favoured here in this first map.
That was going so very wrong.
What a time for one of all to stand tall.
Crazy Clips, man, holy shit.
Saw that Waxid clutch made him feel inspired, maybe.
2 phenomenal clutch rounds out towards this B site from AWP is now at the tail end of the clone major stage 3
But this one has massive ramifications
Oh the walk up on the way out there
It's been very quiet in this T side and one kill
Since rifles came out, but he still finds a special missile in the anti-eco
Looking to assure not even nothing will go wrong guys room control proceeds to lose the one before you know
They weren't controlling so they were sure
You two just stumbling into crosshairs
And just what kind of you know whiplash a g2 feeling they went from being in full control feeling like every round was winnable
Now they've got nothing solid to hold on to those that they can lose from any position
It's a complete
Tonal switch from the squad that we're playing earlier
And you've certainly seen some of these nerves setting in you even heard it somewhat in the halftime
Kind of getting their wires crossed with where their heads are at
Some folks feeling the pressure feel like the energy was drained others saying it's fine
And now all that uncertainty looks to swallow you up this four-round streak for Narvae
We saw this definitely with Navi though man. They had their first two trips as well.
Navi stay in this game ready to write them off
You can feel the difference in Navi looking a lot more comfortable on this T side taking a lot of space early in this round
No threat from lower. No threat from short. G2 wouldn't possibly dare
So Navi get to call the shots. His last mid to B was a bit messy. It comes down to a clutch
But Na'Vi were two players sad in their own mid-door smoke, refusing to play.
That's how G2 were able to get such an advantage in shutting down that tunnel's push.
Na'Vi need to be very careful on the timing of this hit.
I think it's too bad.
It might just come down to a 4v1 of this B bomb side.
It's all just heavy guy just hedging their bets on A.
They've read it wrong.
This is going to be really uncomfortable for every guy.
Guy needs to deal with all of Na'Vi.
This one gets to you. Holy shit.
He's repositioned all the way to car.
Wow, what a kill out of bit. What the fuck?
He's so lucky to be alive. What the fuck?
It is. This might be the game.
This will cost them everything.
All four players arriving from the midside.
They go, oh, Mattis.
Try and begin.
Wonderful again.
Of course, the way under is gone.
Run.
They lose the three.
GT run away.
And it hurts.
It really is absolutely the right call.
If you do, they cannot afford to lose these guns.
Navigo hunting, they won't find anything.
G2 keep three rifles, they keep themselves on this map.
Alright, butters was letting them know they never come back to the bomb site.
He let them know. He's taking the fuck out of here.
G2 are dragging their heels as they have to leave that B bomb site.
Heavy God does so much and it is not enough.
You could not have asked for more on that hold.
You can just see how, you know, it's reinvigorated this hold.
I mean you heavy god could do literally nothing else. He was soloed, he had no nades and he got two kills and almost got a third
life
Communications flowing smiles all around G2. It's nothing but stress
Now V1 by one of work to inspire
Switch back online just in time
They're in control, guys. Lock in. They're in control.
Yesterday in that Falcons match, the look of disappointment on his face.
Well, now it's determination.
They have been a pride that the guys have been able to build back from such a one-sided game.
Job's not done yet, but Wonderful's helped them out.
In this final round of regulation, Heavy God's gonna do it at low health.
That hurts.
Wait, it all was butthole!
But the nerf got you back through the slope!
Hi, man.
He's got this.
He's got the charity, man, man.
Holy!
We're good, we're good.
No shotcaller here.
Holy shit, that's good.
I'll save.
Bro, he's sitting right behind you, I don't know.
That's the blueberry bandit, by the way.
Oh
Where would I miss it how the fuck is it still like this not exactly bet his strongest game here
Wait a struggling match
What Navi's explosive piece
But still a world where he can end this with a bang knows where both players are way
Feeling very claustrophobic know that one pixel string too far can give this away
because he's going to be so careful and considered in these fights.
This would be a huge moment for him.
Oh my, they'll kick, they'll kick.
And take it!
Oh, Navi!
And we're on from his debut of his hit.
We knew he was the real deal.
Back in Colote, he showed up at the playoffs last year.
He looks again, Navi, there again today.
Plus, enough. I said 13-7.
One me to clutch and I'm gonna play like bonds and he's so clutches up. It's all good
Now be on the brink of the
I know if anything you like let it slip away today. I think I was died
They cause correct on that t-side. I got off of them. We'll see
All individuals may steal this one away from G2 and walk away from Mikaze to clutch that one out, Yanko.
Yeah, I stepped up at the final line, but that was just a...
I got his hair in the mean fucking big ones.
And then I was like, oh shit, that could've been...
Honestly, it's like, like that?
It's a clip, right?
Aye.
There's nothing going on from that T side to close the game out in the end.
Yeah, a fantastic form to be fighting back into it obviously for G2, there's going to be more to be desired.
Hopefully they can bounce back on what will be the second map of this series.
But going to be a tricky one considering this was them, I think they chose us for a reason.
I could ever do a little dive here with my step dog, they didn't want to aggro for big time, they still stepped on that too.
Did you think the big dogs go behind you even when they were asked to?
that everything going for you had a great first
those who grew up with that they just sit right behind you
and then the motherfuckers were trying to shut you down completely
then again you give them sort of a gift
when they only had pistols you were supposed to be on that point
the one you just saw is Butters and he's a long hair back then
sure but you could tell from that point on G2 started playing
and then Ronan is a hard rescue and he's a mix
he's a Chihuahua, Pomeranian, mini pig
is going to be in front of interesting one to be discussing. Of course, it's this time
of night as well.
Sorry, thanks for the time with Pram.
Thank you.
Skit dropping, but right now we need to dive into exactly what happened on this dust 2.
And I think Yanko's totally right, Ash. You come into that second half, you burst up what,
six rounds in a row? If you're outside of G2, you get on 11. That's a rare point for
anyone to be fumbling this kind of a lead.
It looked like now they had nothing, literally nothing. They couldn't get in the rounds.
It was just done. The game was completely...
Very good.
Butters on my end, careful, never had thoughts before, do a little bit of research.
Or you're not, that's all I'm saying.
We're very happy to be on the Colt, but not everybody is.
way right you're making it easy for them like they can't come up with the
answers they come can't come up with the solutions and this way you're sort of
giving an opening to them that they weren't able to find at all the entire half
our last option Richter was 17 years old kind of flipped right we got round 19
this is the first T round that now we waited a little bit to get one and
cheating know everything we got one person jiggle in the tunnel still middle
is clear let's go three towards a and nurse isn't like an aggressive mid self
but by himself and he kind of risking the whole round. Some pious misses are
set to because the team think their shot is clear. Matthew just goes for a
digression. The round's over and they have three people on A, plus a guy in top
middle. Nurses play just as needed at this point. You have everybody on A, you
have key control. Just be there, make sure they can't come back or anything and then
you're flanking towards A quickly. So I think this is what happens when there's
just too much adrenaline, you get too excited, you just don't quite know what
to do because of the position that you have. Then you lose track of the macro
And as we said the situation in the game like you know like the Navi couldn't get anything going on their t-side
And you go for something this yes, I know they lost long control
But you also know it's a half-byte like you know, this isn't a full-byte round
Pritchons up sure there can be a
beach wall
Shouldn't be
insane I cannot believe that he pulled this one off I mean he was having a great
game that CT side and then he cooled off and he cooled off because the team
couldn't really get going this is a 2 HP 1 vs 4 at 9-11 and it's just
incredible I mean I don't think G2 would be too happy the way they played it so
much but given him a chance right now he looks absolutely incredible in the
games I'm seeing a little bit really that's just it's still just him it's
still just big down handed in my chat then
two things about the show. First shotout to Alexic with a dying breath through a flash that
could blind the first G2 player on being allowed Wonderful to get the kill. But yes, that is for
ya. Also take note on how the 2v1 was played by G2. Sure, Wonderful went for an aggressive
pick, but they were not together to begin with. You know, Sampias was in CT, Mathis was already
going for tunnels, so that's also what happened in the final round of the game. Same thing
occurred to Westerthes. Restivation follower but maybe not that guy. I get it that Heavy
got to kill kind of late and maybe some pirates could have just repositioned after firing off their
shots when directly too long with him you know you're giving your opponent a maca in that case two
one-on-one fights which is what you never want to do in in a man advantage situation now certainly
not and then we get into the penultimate round of the game yanko what was this finishing blow like
this was where you saw they're done right this is where you saw g2 are cooked heavy god on his own
against the entirety of the Navi squad
There's that 2k?
Yeah, there's our main
On the third guy
I'm gonna just say
He lays that in 4
Wonderful 1v4
So the nerfs couldn't really do much
You know, couldn't find a kill
So now they're in a 4v3
Alright, let's see if we can reset here
A little bit, he gets tagged to low HP
So the bomb just got planted
They're swapping guns
Okay, nerfs to low HP
Take the up right, give me the flashes
Do this, do that
It takes them so long to organize themselves
that once Hunter dies, look how much time has passed,
like two thirds of this bomb has been taken
for both of you to start.
They haven't even set themselves up to start retaking
and after that one death from Hunter,
they just go and save.
Like that tells you the communication
was absolutely chaotic.
They could not like come to terms
how they want to go into this retake
that's still a very much winnable round,
especially after what Harry God was able to do on his own.
And this is where you could see, you know,
the consequences of losing the rounds
that you've shown prior.
the confidence was nowhere to be found.
They were just completely disarray in the comms.
And Navi was able to come up with it.
That way, gave him the abbreviation of the blue-brick band.
I really feel like Navi were there to be taken.
And even goes back to the T side for me on the G2 side.
They defaulted the start of the game.
It looks great.
They win the round comfortably.
And then they start throwing trick plays in.
I remember a round where they start peeking middle dry,
happened two rounds in a row.
Wonderful, just picking them up everywhere.
And then we were for three B-pops in the game.
Just fully set B-pops from spawn calls.
I feel like, just let him play his play a little bit.
All smiles when he went 13-11 like that.
You also give away a mark that seems done
in multiple different ways.
This was an incredible fumble here from G2.
They went A in the first gun round,
which they were able to win.
And then they tried one more time.
When they got shot down on short,
that was that 2-5 that got really close from the side of G2.
But every other round, they went to finish on B,
which was kind of crazy.
So you felt like it was maybe G2 getting a little bit ahead
of themselves?
I mean, when you see you have that much of a lead,
You think surely one of these rounds is gonna get to work right?
Is the dog with good coms with blueberry bandit?
Absolutely not.
You lose to pistols.
All right.
The good coms is running.
11, 7, 11, 8 at this point, right?
Okay, oh, we're running against this B-split.
Blueberry bandit wakes me up at 2 in the morning by jumping on him.
If I don't let him out, he will immediately become a professor cast and just take a massive
shape.
However, he pleases.
It's not, hey, let's just do this guy.
You have low HP.
You're just gonna run in first.
Sampai is you flash for us know we're swapping guns for him to run in with the
Op first then the guy with a lot of HP is flashing like you know, and then you just lose too much time
You can't organize yourselves
And and then you're just falling apart also good calm. This is what we mean by we
Not taking the risks you're in two people position of the window flash instantly going you know people says a hard one take the take the
One for two. It's not even the worst thing in the world to Mattis could go back through tunnels when he pushes long
He joins the team as well. It's just the slowest thing in the world
So it's kind of what we mean. We're saying play to win. It sounds obvious
But it isn't obvious a lot of the times what this means is when you feel like you have a time in our position
You need to use that position in the best way you can
Do you think that's what Saul will be saying to the guys in this break we got to see those live pictures here
What would you be saying in this moment? I mean, I think I was saying that we mostly played good and we lost the game
That's unfortunate, but we were in positions to win the game
This is something that you can see that now be one of their best in the whole time.
Also, I just decided to let you guys know that me getting five subs is the wonderful way to get into a sub goal.
And this also was wonderful playing his A game in a way.
It was a bit too easy sometimes to just blow and smoke over a whole middle.
Throw in the right to the upper, bro. That's Ash. Don't throw on them right now.
They can see that now be a vulnerable and I also think they won't be happy with the way they played
because this was Heavy God dragging them through for the majority of the game
and then the rest of them starting to warm up. They need to all come in hot.
They can't just rely on Heavy God to get through to the playoffs.
But I would say that the biggest winner so far is Spirit watching us.
Yeah, that's a fair analogy.
Jit or not without their chances on Inferno, right?
They had mixed results on the map.
It was early on when they went under to Cobra IGL,
a map on which they had a lot of success on.
Was there a staple in that last London run where they ended up lifting the trophy?
So you also have that same kind of chance for these maps.
No, they don't have their phones.
Maybe it's a little bit shaky for them or something along those lines.
But I can tell you from experience it's tough to mentally reset after a loss like that
Right like it's almost reliant on having like a strong start because being 5-0
I really makes you forget about what happened on the previous way
Yeah, that's an easy way to kind of forgive and forget that one. You said you know G2's history on this map of inferno
Why did Navi pick it then?
I'm not a hundred percent sure because something like ancient as a dashboard
I don't know
I like the tabs on it
Ross Aarony, I think he's one guy for today
Bell really poor tournament
He just fell away from him
Maybe it could be a crack more of those guys, thank you
I think heavy guns crack in top 10
NaVi will cook. Basically, they have all the vitality, their team that will have some
sort of set ideology in there for the specific one, and then we'll see how that plays.
CT side, CT side, who are we looking at the most in order for them to have that hot start here?
I have nerds in Banana. I thought we would look at who he was playing,
who had a plan of a game early on in stage three, or maybe it was even back in stage two.
But yeah, I think he needs to wake up a little bit, right? Like he had that bad round.
No, I'm generally saying not the hottest of tournaments like that such a focal point on this map where him having a good game can really
Lg2 to take it into a certain wonderful wonderful has
Honestly, no, he started off. I think he's maybe taste run. It's probably is always
This banana position if you can't control banana, and you are dying repeatedly
They will not be able to play the map
So I agree fully nurse is the one to watch well if G2 want to rerun
They have to rebound on Navi's map pick of Inferno, but before we get there, let's see what vow we've been cooking for the playoffs.
This is Vitality dominating. So many maps, you can't touch his team on, overpass one of them.
Vitality are opting for the boost. Risky move, in my opinion.
I don't know. Is that...
Oh
Dear vitality caught sleeping on the new update
Dude finally apex here hoping to find cover on a map they usually avoid
On their program
there's a dingy in donut
not the dingy in donut
let's relax, adapt, play inside, focus on your crosshairs
head set, back on, rounds combined
focus on your crosshairs
Yeah, I'm not sure that's why they're f**king, they're f**king, they're f**king, they're f**king.
All right.
All right, go.
Go.
History is written by the victors. Well that makes apex the author of modern counter strike
Perfect perfect
I like the other skits more but that was actually sort of insane like all the different effects they had on that one
really, really wants this, Fnalfi right now, you're looking at wonderful man, that clutch
to keep the dream alive, been in phenomenal form all tournament, you're just getting the
best gains out of wonderful you could ever ask for.
And I'm so glad that Mikazi jumped on that train as well, because he had a very quiet
second half of that map, but he showed up to win the 1v2 on low health against G2 to
steal it away and break the G2.
What was that video about?
Nothing in vitality man, you didn't read the patch notes?
This first event in this team was last year.
He had a great group stage.
He had an even better playoff at 1.21 on the stage
and they lost to Spirit in the semi-final
because he was no problem in that matchup.
He showed he could hang on the big stage.
So let's see if Darby can get there.
Second map of this series, their pick in Fono
and an opportunity to go to the final.
Same last stage for the final.
The final, thank you very, very much.
2nd map!
Let's get it on!
Naked up for G2, Navi all the same.
And 4 man A-Stack.
Direction is still up, go go go go go.
G2 trust in nerds to hold down this B-Site.
get things go we love what's right love what I have you God you'll take back
you now V is you just try and ease into this T side you know the G2 have been
outside doing some reflect we're having fun we're having fun right now
stating loss so gotta prepare themselves for a G2 that are looking to bounce back
I
Set on an a play and a stack here for the G2 squad
Folks come in so the Navi
You told to get this one going molly's to try and clear out the pit Mattis up close
He's in the pitside alongside his captain a lot of eyeballs over here on short
Damn, I'll be trying to change their mind
They've shown a lot of face out here towards this a-play so expecting reaction from g2
But that hasn't bitten down upon it. Now if you look like they might reset
There's still more to this one, but with 20 seconds now. We have got to go
Slow down means the nerds can't assist on this long side
We would have been valuable there matters as for one. Yeah, I just kind of move around the cross
Good job, sir.
Wonderful to trade just enough time to put that bomb down and
nerds is late to this party.
I'm looking for redemption.
It's a long up for the task of this clutch.
It's the long.
Two players in front of the other.
Never mind.
Alright.
to go on. Well, they're picking up where they left off another victory to kickstart this
second map. Decisive move there in that 2v1. They're just chasing down absolutely fearless
game out of Na'Vi on the cards here on Inferno after picking up an impressive comeback on
Dust2. Looking to charge into the playoffs. Wonderful crying. Yes, team has finally decided
show up super happy to go for the force on the CT side thank you man thank you
guys
questions as to this banana hold we've seen some highlights from nerds in this
position at this major so far true and after I gifted five subs is to it she
He's reached the sub goal so I imagine he's pretty happy about that
Yeah, Shane
I
Damn fucking let's speed it up guys. We have places to be
That's
Nobody didn't anything for a fucking minute there just watch them all 80s
There we go, that's where we see somebody one day somebody else now
from these pistols
Well, that's what happens when you don't fucking pressure a map or get info for an entire minute. I mean that was actually fucking stupid
I'm upset about it
Scary for a second hunter rotating some bias calling long open, but no I just
They like they didn't do anything they got no maps control and then they sent a lexie art with this nade said but like
I'm not sure like what's the, I guess the idea is if he runs into us, if he runs up
arch they know it's a SACB but, I don't know.
If you want to search a guy for info I think he needs to get a little bit more supported
and if you don't want to do that and you just want to hit a site you should just hit the
site.
look at the gap he's found so many goofy things can happen that runs what the fuck
what the fuck holy bitches what the fuck you just simply walked into the
pubs you are not ready for that you're on moto you're getting peaked at short at
the start of the round and that's a save call for g2 there are a bunch of that
Guys, fuck you, I'm walking up land.
Guys, I have the safe.
I think he's, I think Bitman.
the
guys thanks for all the followers man you guys are helping me get to a million thank you thank you thank you
i'm collecting them all i'm prepared to remind us what he's doing followers he's been
doing calories tremendously hard at this major oh perfect i think it felt like such a
thing to me
why couldn't have come at a worse time
but all could be forgiven today
So didn't wait till didn't use the time until about 20 rounds into the game back on dust
G2 force up they did save 30 rifles it's not a bad buy
Why?
All good guys, just focus please, okay?
Stop the fucking...
It was perfect with smokes, with A-chees, it's not your Nikita.
It's not your mistake. All good, okay?
Just don't kill Nikita because of it, okay?
We are talking so much bullshit without Riza.
Stressed getting some Gta-
Damn!
Yes, I'm tired of that pulse, dude!
that's real bro, real
like who my teammate tells me he has a flashbang like shut up bro
I don't give a shit.
You chose for pussies anyway, man. Don't talk to me.
Slash for the 54 month resep, thank you.
Hunter I think so
Decision to make
Does he want to try and breathe
The fight goes looking for a scrap
I'm lucky
If so, weigh the opening
Some pious thinking
If he wanted to come through
And the cells at the end
They are waiting in this long smoke
They've heard him on that journey
That's ambitious
And they're not getting out of this one alive
Bro just stood there next to a firing squad
And had no idea
I don't know what he thought would happen
But like
I'm in a really potent position
You know, admins
There should just be one guy in the site
That's about to get confirmed
spot over at long. Oh, that's worse than heavy gun is hiding.
Okay, now I got this one.
My goodness, that's a five E three straight up for Navi. Double entry.
They can see it long. They regroup on the shore hit, but no motor smoke.
It actually fades by the time they get out short. It's a perfect line for
look at that blue just disappear and easy line-up baits him in the heavy God
Narvi just get turned to mulch shockingly easy 4g2 when you consider them at
disadvantage
Narvi caught looking a little silly there left with just AK's is big gonna try and
look for a gap again ahead of the smoke ahead of the smoke surprises no it's not
Why don't I?
Again an entry from bit as he leads the pack
Rest of non V. We're gonna follow through behind it
They've changed their mind putting pressure on long now falling back for the short commit
Have you got nearly swings out there blind ends up recovering?
But you're gonna need more from heavy gop before this round is over good for a double
Laker though
Handling that could have been the X factor there. I wonder for good luck
This isn't an orb in a post plot anymore. This is a rifle seeking three entries
G2 here have the site reinforced look at a win out in these force by wall
I don't go for this time
They swing them together that's G2 on the same page to shut out that clutch
His rotation is so quick, and that's why these B places keep punishing on
Navi are getting entries into a they're trading out well, but then G2 just I'm surprised
Oh, I'm not saying he should be thrilled, but I'm just
I wouldn't call it an execute. It is lacking the smoke
And G2 are bringing it
Winning out despite a lot of guys finally putting on the on eco man
That save a couple right?
As by the end of it all G2 well set with a two-round lead
It's a bit of a kick in the teeth for Navi
And one thing that seems really reassuring here for G2 is how good heavy god is today he showed up on dust
Do he was doing all he could?
It's just pistols right what could go wrong
I
My fridge mob you so they made me hide it
Just whittled bits round away. He's still been able to provide something but at 11 HP armed with only this eagle
There's a limit even to be and what he's capable of
Some past getting his do you see is your getting his they all look the same on staff sheet
Bratification of these conversions after today. There's two
late immediately gonna hop on in they're like surely he's noticed in these
first few rounds just how fast and loose G2 are playing with the rotates and
maybe Navi the same because you know they're getting into good positions
they're getting at mid space is one of the chair I'm in picks in a and so you
kind of understand why Navi are committing to these executes but now
you know in back to back rounds they've done exactly that and G2 have shut them
down from this advantage so maybe the coolest yeah so Tuesday Wednesday I'm
thinking tomorrow off jet I'll be back Wednesday though
but I don't control taking in this game but yeah I've been kind of so there are a lot of
options that Navi haven't utilized in this tea side and maybe
breathing but Wednesday I'll be good it's one of them
that is up to the point one of the go-to's for Navi in here I take the
pace out of this a little
I'm going to get some brush, show for the day, whatever it may be, speak for itself.
I mean, it's something we saw back on Lost Map, right?
These bad advantages lost.
Lots of early picks for WCT Dust 2 on the rounds from those moments.
Well, G2 are expecting a change off of that timeout and they've kind of correctly preempted
this banana take for Navi.
He said we haven't seen any of this control yet.
I'll be trying throw it in and that return to the right falls and get bullied by the utile
He's on the same page. I
Nice reassuring sign despite it's not being a B round
The G2
Have the protocols in place. They have that banana control back
And so minute on the clock for Navi and they don't have anything to show for this some low health barely getting utile out of G2
Why the back up banana late in the round silently hoping G2 are perhaps over rotated
But that still has support in the form of Mattis
Chasing the reload they hit them back from that aggression. They go all the way
All this has to go through it. They won't get an entry got the entry though. Wait, they didn't hear that
Oh
It's your turn to get an important kill right now for you
Sitting at the top of the board eight and four but they're paid as a small
Sandwich by G2
They try to go for the
Rack it up rounds a little bit of a surprise to be and bring the goods here for G2
They didn't have more flashes. They got all the way up and then the flashes all pop pop and then they weren't in yet
Yeah, he's put himself in positions to succeed it's reflected in the school. That's amazing. Thanks for the three month promise
Thank you very much
And C is the other one, I think C17 is my primary, thank you, thank you.
So just go and get rid of him. Don't let him long the round out. Don't let him find these timings
They deal with him early
And that feels like it gets you so much freedom now sat pretty in a five on three and the one guy that's had you looking over
Your shoulder is dead
Or where that came from some pious connects onto McCarthy
5v2 just
They're just waiting for G2 to get to 11, maybe, maybe.
Even though major playoffs may be a different conversation for this G2 team, stage experience
is not.
We've seen a lot of these guys pop off in arenas over these last few years.
But as many have learned this week, getting there is the hardest part.
I mean, Hunter just has a very calm demeanour in and out of the server, and that translates
very nicely to these high pressure moments.
And you've got to find it inspiring, I think, if you're the rest of the G2 players, right,
Hit tab you see where your captain sits on the scoreboard
You gotta tell yourself late. He's willing to do all this
Surely we can offer something up
Holy with a shut down at banana and RV nerds. It's having a really good game
I'm gonna take this space quickly
Attempt to trade back for bit, but some pious or able to rid him from this round
Needs an unlikely to be for attempt on the cards for wonderful and Ema
They're split up here in their approach, Ema going alone out in the top middle and this
is Hunter's domain right around that corner, ready for it, Hunter with the killing blow.
That's the bomb dropped out on Long.
G2 just setting traps all over the map right now.
That double lap set up in a couple of rounds.
This one they burned Navi back into the swing and B.
I don't think Navi wanted to jump the gun on that B hit but they get forced to by that
Molly.
he says swing with me. Two players dead in the car. Wonderful. In another clutch, is
he really going to be up for the job? Or on this shot will connect. And so some players
does not let this one get out of control. G2 making up for their mistakes of dust. This
is six rounds in a row building out of control for G2.
And Navi have not had many rounds up B. That's one I'll remember. We've seen a very strong
utility from G2 and the CT side. I think it's one of the brutal things about this map,
you know, when you feel like you're running into the wall, when Banana is just closed
at the hands of convincing you till convincing gunfights out of the B players, it kind of
puts you in a real box doesn't it right if you can't take banana you don't get to go play and pull
you don't think banana you don't get to play the map that's in front of me it's the only space
they're getting it's the only space they're being given never seen that angle before all the offing
on arch it's wrong until somebody slashes you then it's sad so again it's back to this and then
you accuse the other team of shrooms I begs classic and I'm right here for na'vi only take a deep again
Desperate now because g2 only one flash in their face have no problem locking this down miss shot won't cost you as the
Rifles come in but wait wait it does double entry from a lexie certainly not here in the conversation. They see that man
Excuse me
What the tech line just happened
Oh
My
But more is demanding
Yes
What a round
Na'vi can make something of this key side yet. I just felt perfect there for G2
That's a 2v5 with the trades from a laxie
Have you got some pys and hunts are all gonna kill a piece one missed orb shot and then the whole thing comes unravelled
Alexi keeps it cool
Also, I just saw the in my back straight created purely our fives
And G2, okay
You need to share with the rest of chat whatever drugs around because that's just hitting hard. I'll be
I tried to take off his fucking toes man. Stampede next year, 5 month, 5 month, thank you.
This round is everything.
Lose it, and you're destined to get stomped out of your T side.
Win it, and we have a game of Counter-Strike.
He's burning, he's burning!
He's still got one more.
Have you got the three from Pitt?
Have you got the goat?
Have you got it?
Okay.
Do they, do they think he maybe went home?
There was enough timing.
with it and now we may buy some self a few more seconds dancing around these
site boxes
oh my fucking god
and that is now back to my clutches in these post-blogs for Na'Vi
there's clutches that have defined this series for Na'Vi
clutches on clutches man that was smooth that was nice
I would like flame but that was nice that was fucking
Now Ima enters, everybody's getting in in these late round situations and Navi are staying alive.
And this would actually get to the subject cable so thank you.
Are they picking one by one?
Benny, shut up!
you
Hello guys, Matt from GIFTED on Twitch and KICK.
Looks like a hardcore country music channel, we talked about this, I look like a guy that
just opened his own brewery.
And I have the finest IPA in Las Vegas.
Thanks to 30 month armor the five gets it IPA exactly
Lordy thanks to the 46 foot armor. Thank you
Tell you what's your time of the nod that's under a gun
I mean would have preferred a much different game, but
It's the same like a pile, bro
you don't go to a game six where you seem to lose it in life most I'd say like
pretty much 70% of the people say it even like a say it after it's a Stanley
cut man
you say for the cup celebration yeah
I left uh, I left after the whole squad got it, but yeah, I wanted to see like the presentation
of it.
Three times in nine years isn't bad and I've been fortunate enough to be a part of like
literally each flier.
I always go win when I can.
Well, I can't and I don't get fucked on prices. I'm not paying scalper prices
Surviving here with clutches on Na'Vi for the most prolific system team in Counter-Strike.
what's begging a bit of a question how would they fare with the heart racing
adrenaline pumping style of getting by on individual brilliance and the answer
I just want to roll captain now
a little jittery a little jumpy giving away that final round of the half-sees g2
with an 8-4 lead
I can't I don't know what to say what what are the rules that they're winning bro
okay yeah that is great but it's fine boys there might be a couple of more but
Don't fucking crack don't let them get to you
I can't stop this laughter
I think he was laughing at the question they lost short of six was 73. Thank you. Stay to the 46
Na'vi now look for a minute and a half remaining there for the scammer
I mean that's good sign though if you can laugh about the clutches. I mean to be fair
they still won 8-4 despite the clutches from Navi.
Entry for Alexi. G2 surrounding the A site. Two smokes to make this work.
Liverpool didn't have much of a part to play in that first half but we'll have a responsibility
here if they're able to bring the AWP out. That kind of hinges on winning this pistol.
bit, trying to set them up for it. These door barrettas, strike two from the tally. Heavy
god with the reply. They're looking for space out long by sophomore that he can chew. That
leaves it on heavy god. And Navi come in quick with a pistol victory to begin this second
half.
The bigots on line, bit for an inactivate.
They won the first pistol. Look how that ended up. It was a back and forth affair till G2
finally broke them so now we need to keep a cool head on their shoulders in
this city side hey stars glad you haven't been here in that halftime feeling
very happy about the opportunity they've been given to close this game out
no he's not a paid chatter he was put a hashtag out of the other message if he
was guys I make sure they all know the back of an incredible dust two on two
frags now and mccasey not far ahead
they will be called upon come the CT side
guys we get ads at half yeah you show them them bros coming this guy's fucked
up he's leaving my stream and I'll get him then he's coming in right as the game
game starts because he knows they won't play. That's fucked up dude.
That's talk.
Bro loves how I run ads but he won't watch them. That's crazy.
That's crazy.
They do lose, Zima.
The whole quickly plugged bit.
And he watched them though.
Hey, hey, just go get your wife's boyfriend's Amazon Prime account dude. Come on.
We've not seen a whole lot over towards banana
There's an area of the map is largely neglected by Navi in that first half
Actually, too gonna keep this is the only is to get you do they try cast a bit of a big tag with the gift of the drink
Thank you, thank you
Gotta keep them honest in banana
Both teams hesitate to throw much in
No, my stream is not in the golden crown.
My stream is in the olive garden, because when you're there in your family, just like this stream, you know?
A hell of a social.
When you're here, you're flammily.
We would bankrupt an olive garden in this chat, that's all I'm gonna say.
Unlimited bad six, my ass.
Oh, hey, that is
That's not funny
I'm smoking FB. I'm smoking FB Mikaze. I'm peeking. I'm dead. Good luck
Getting instantly two taps of dispersion drill. Third takes for the 12-minute problem. Thank you, man
lose any health to that utility so they're just fine to wait it out and then recommit to a be
execute something we never really saw I hear me out after we drink the arena dry again can we all go
to the same oliver garden and then for daily sales here perfect entries here from g2 put them on
the board uh we'll host the after party event for ml2 at an oliver garden guys i got here
the
pace they imagine G2 are operating at because that was a slow banana take
that's a none of that early utile fighting damage
even said it during the round
they did not get a bang for their buck on that banana take
there was one near movie theater I used to go to
for blade oh man where is it like one of the galaxy theaters there's one there
was out of worse spots that's for sure but it's bro link of google man like the
wonderful link all of the residual money to try and bring out that all you feel
like it has to be a big focal point of the CT side because he went from being
the guy that says what across from the RIA holy shit there's one of the strip
guys block it 11 here on inferno that always comes with the territory you
wait for the second half you're a CT player with that AWP hasn't had the
chance to dumb one yet. I might only have you know one proper go at it if things don't change.
Having said guys if you guys are coming to my land we're interested make sure you get
x me for an FML click the first link and if you don't have your emails signed up so you
don't miss a ticket drop on Tuesday the 23rd flam.com
one of his host land at all of garden if there's one guy you don't work is the night at the
pace like right if I've all grown at the land we then I'd be actually homeless
five or six to the park thank you the rest of the round even off the M4
R.V.E. still trying to keep Banana damaged through the smoke to Hunter. They're getting
very close here, RG2. Nuts just called the Bluffys. Walked through the smoke on the walk
back from Mikazi, maybe counting ammo. So Mikazi reloads back and spawning as nothing
but smoke. What time exactly will it be on sale at 23rd? Haven't fully confirmed yet,
should be new well that's the
B-bomb site gone again remember what I said about
mccasey and like it's the channel no problem
and you talked about you know and the end of this was not true too
the navi jersey at a funner was a troublesome note there but it was one you thought he'd kind
of started to figure out wrap his head around but he's just out of the game right now this is
just like when you're having this matter began or maybe that clutch at the end of dust two might
inspire something here but looking flustered didn't even hear your mind can't like refocus coming
towards his bomb site wonderful is having a rough game yeah he is dude i think i remember both
those kids was like a hero a carry and a failure to launch in that round that's
just really ugly from a car's in you know when we talk about him in playoffs
he's really reliable it wasn't just that clone outing where he showed up last
year I mean Budapest was also great for him a distance maker he's I'm pretty
sure the player coming in if you exclude the major performance that's a
really good games in arenas has mccasey but Navi are not there yet G2 are
slowly but certainly steadily breaking into this game.
This is what Wonderfull has been waiting for.
That's what he's telling himself.
Finally getting to Don and AWP.
2-11, it's all eyes on him to try and recover.
I think one of the hard things,
one of the bitter pills to swallow in Inferno
is you can just get left out of the action.
You've got to be very assertive on this orb.
Make sure you're putting yourself in position to succeed.
He's got no utile in this round,
everything kind of revolves around him he's gonna go hunting for this opening
with a swing and a miss but he won't make it for it
that is a crazy good recovery
wonderful tries to escape only for a second back in trying to extend that
trying to extend their advantage but in this downtime g2 making a move on the
other side of the map that is creeping out he got holding for any swing out
It might get caught
The big on big
That's about the pit player the rest of Navi are closing in how much time can Ema buy
It's a great ball is gonna give a few seconds hunter has to make boys to get through but he still
We have two smokes
311, 514, here we go.
Oh, what a mess God has done now though.
Damn.
You gotta put away Navi, man.
Navi trying to put him too late in the day to save this game
An explosive 2v4 down to a winnable round
For women they do not
of
all the way to the U-Tilt
I can't believe they just actually ran it down.
It felt like there was so much in front of them that they just had to come in.
Frontier will not be stopped in Brunon, cause he's got places to be.
Oph doesn't play when these games get late. He's got dinner.
I
Really have to move to the phone blood and it's quickly you often get sloppy
I mean there was so much drop to G2, I really can't believe G2 got in
Four massive frags from hunters is going crazy man
and
Hunters saw Nico do it yesterday to Narvi, he wants to join him in the playoffs.
It sounds like this that reminds you just how talented Hunter is.
Hunter took the leadership, beating Nico in that race knowing that they were both...
What a gamble
You're gonna get a cell band from all of good
of one is this going to be the latest aggression for a lexie mccasey hoping to
bait for him with this spam the g2 check this corner cuz if not a lexie is
gonna chew through them there's the first now left to wait about getting
Mollied next the next one up better up. That's big damage
MP9's man G2 everything cool
Set their sights on finishing or the rest of the team started this B play
Shouldn't have to ask for more from Alexi. Surely his team can get him through the rest
What more man back at the site heavy got clears him out. He is looking for an ace of his own
with 10 seconds he's got to stick it wonderful comes from this smoke heavy
go down and so Navi survive barely by the skin of the team's not even close
let's see two and a half kills down banana captains showing up in this map
for both squads and the ticker does go up she too must be having the worst type
of deja vu right now you know these were the kind of rounds you were giving away
on dust you held a lead and very similar position of this one that is the
exception to the rule this B site has just been brittle for Navi they've lost
it numerous times they've missed time the banana retakes G2 did a lot better
than that on the CT side so I think G2 know they can go back into this B bomb
site and they can try it again
sure Alexi a lot of space G2 don't use their util correctly they don't clear
about us something you'll want from
give you to that composition and they will write another pick meet up during FML what you mean like a meet and greet like I did before Texas yeah yeah of course
What's the point of showing a good value?
I can't even care about it either.
I never look at it.
That's how you do it to think about this.
This is the round that could win them at this map and keep them in the conversation for the playoffs.
Lexi decides...
Doesn't want fate to decide this. Any type of luck to come into the conversation. He falls back atop banana spot for wonderful
An email in position in time. They get baited into this crossfire
Can't control the spray
Kind of felt a little panicky from heavy gun
It hasn't moved a muscle all round sat pretty down in the bra. I'm surprisingly committed to the position
On the top is unsan pious
can be used to try and flush him out for now you've got to get past Hema the one
knowing quantity at this a bomb site they manage it
oh you ready for him to reappear at a moment's notice from the library side
that smoke forces a fight out of it and big gets pincid all the time kill was so
Oh, clean.
He's struggling inside duo Alexi and Mikazi.
They now got to clean up.
Well, Na'Vi couldn't finish.
And even the smoke being here is a real nuisance.
It's wasting a lot of time on the clock.
Mikazi being loud on his reposition.
Sumpires very informed.
That Molly forces a reaction.
Forces a swing.
might have the info might know where they both are, but has to deliver the goods 1v1 alexi
can't find me some pious sees it through 4g2
I'll give my plan plan tickets for this for the major I might be sold out you might be
able to find one day on the ESL tickets.
Technically thanks to the partner thank you.
I think Gyrrp's a lot better about 3 sold.
second map right there for the taking is in photo G2 some very difficult rounds
levied against them but this time they survive
and with that clutch thanks for your time man appreciate you close here and now
you said it at the start of that last round whoever loses it is broke moving
oh some pices won't be to it's meant to have handed whoa easy round but they
get chewed up and chop it out of this you still will be punishing it's a
fucking fight and fight what's heavy go always to do here locked out by the
utile hi Jesus what a cluster fuck it in goes to his demise every time you
the right now be off the springboard
by all these shit out massive ramifications that's G2 broke as well
they came into that round victors in a clutch they have nothing left on the clock
and so three round the hell no bye in the blink of an eye now for G2
you felt like getting 12 was the hardest job of two but now closing this back thanks to the 41
Thank you, dude will not be much easier and she too have forced
They had to their price on 1400 this means if they come up short their next pie
I'm just I think you just had too much confidence in their utility and it was like not thrown together like all their
It's what they do wasn't that short here. That's walks are a smoking banana
They're you so they threw like it wasn't bad, but it wasn't like combined well
And it kind of came out in stages, and then they just kept just filing through the
Bananas, but I don't know.
Has to be Derns. Has to be.
Oh, that is ugly.
Alright.
It's eyes on
He is totally free here feels like that's dawning on g2. My god. They're like they know this
You're clearing ground
Creating a runway for this bomb to move on some pious
Well, the rookie realize because he's gotta go surprise. Oh my cousin is figured it out now
And so he will that B site gets reinforced g2 looking to end this where it all started back at the a bomb site
wonderful and bit waiting to receive
You told to try and kickstart this whole thing. You're really hoping now V
Give this away. Give you the entry
Swing from bit does exactly that
Wonderful has to hold on and he can't convert the spray
No way right to stay alive at this major
Matt is on the reposition. My cousin got the spot need goes
Holy shit
massive rounds
That's just pure action
Squeezed out in this series still struggling still dangling in the balance still here on
Yeah, but I think he missed it. I think you have to
I think you didn't see but I think he's better like
Pistol's off the road.
But now, Navi, get a free B.
12 to 10.
G2 never fucks us up.
of
the
death of
Don't do too much and try to get that gun then die magic way
cinema
Now quite the thorn in the side is going for it to multiple times. He got it from securing that third map
Not the hardest hitting guy in the server by a long shot, but when it counts in these final couple of rounds
Makaazi's been good for it.
Gonna have to survive without him here,
but you're only up against this one gun,
entrusted onto Heavy God.
This isn't around G2,
as supposed to make competitive.
They're going into a crossfire if they commit to B.
They've got a smoke on Hunter.
That will lock off one of these players.
So I have to try and find some comfort in this 2v1
onto Ema at the back of the site.
Will he get native?
just going for this fight because G2 are walking in so no early warning sign for
Navi that allows Alexi to play 15 seconds as G2 try contact. Not a lot of
Lexi's who perv.
Even feels the pressure but he holds strong and heavy god just wants to save this gun.
He might go down to him. He's running into him. I'll go back to the game.
They take it out of the round.
Alexi pushes back down Bernardo for the top of car.
He kills him after the clock.
Oh, he killed him after?
Nine-man mode.
From a man who would have had the lost points.
I'm just going to close my eyes really quick,
and I'm going to imagine how that happened.
Now he's on a tech nine.
That's what it's going to cost you.
Yes, OK.
OK, I understand that now.
It's a timeout from G2's side, but you know,
Blade appreciates it.
He's going to use the full length of this to talk through round 24 with his team.
Sora's now watched G2 throw away two massive leads.
This round decides whether we get overtime or not.
Is it another Navi comeback?
Feel the shakiness of G2, but you must remind yourself they've not had the best
buys in these last few rounds.
This will be the best one yet, albeit with heavy God weakened.
G2 must make the most of this.
We feel like a very different game in overtime with Navi with the momentum.
Oh, yeah, I don't know how G2 bounce back from that.
I really don't, you know, there's kind of just a limit baked into all of us.
How many times you can give away big leagues?
Oh, what a prick.
It's one hell of a way to get going.
Wonderful.
I don't know how these nades do big that make literally hitting them did less than it somehow
And they're looking for that trade so they will get it for v4 secured
I important refrag from a car seat a Pc his position a double-nade him even blocks his teammate in to look for that fight
Guaranteeing the 4v4
Goldford g2 in the short term should be get heavy got this gun get back in banana get that rifle in your hands
Give yourself the best opportunity to win this one and Alexi trust in these young star leaving him alone on this B
bomb site smoke comes down in the downtime they're grouping reclearing
middle now at this position how far do you take this aggression I thought they
wanted to go for it they would have found an entirely empty middle they still
can watch this yeah watch man it leads that side of the map meanwhile Alexi
begins his rotation back you just spam flashes from a car so you can give his
teammate the best possible chance to hold this site two more available for the
captain as g2 go for the full punch
sees the barrel some pines gives away the opening
slow down and g2 grinds to a very jarring hold
no fucking way man, no fucking way
now be gassed to overtime
they do better when they're underdogs, famed against falcons 11-6
They keep doing this dude. They just keep doing this man. They just always in it.
You gotta put them away, G2.
What a surprise I've never seen G2 throw a lead like that before, man.
True.
Right, that's steering, guys.
This was... this was crazy.
Bro, I'm just here for the time being.
I think it's out, man.
man that's a great thing about being an NACS fan is like you see him always get eliminated
early so you just get to like chase the dopamine hit of like one more wacky CS come. One more
OT. Where's shit? So like I'd never have a time to cheer for it.
Rejoins the gang for this a hit, but this just throws you through a bit of a loop suddenly everything scrambled
Matt is with a missed timing the wonderful
Op is lighting you up G2 can feel that this one. Oh my god. They just it was red on the walls a bad
Omen the moment that bomb is leaving. Oh my because it's running at him
What the fuck was that because
You can feel this game is slipping because they said you can keep you up. Excuse me, sir. I'm grabbing my a.k.a.
Straight to the V massive mistakes for G2. He's alive. I don't want to reswing. No, I need to get this a.k.a. really quick.
Heavy got an apartment scared of the balcony doesn't take the swing.
swing
Some pious on the line just walks away with his and Navi it's flowing now
Having to require to wipe g2 to win these guys room control don't
The fact that they had a time out where we get to listen in we get to hear them say they're in control and we watch wonderful one
Before them on dust two is still living rent free
that is like the Navi in the lead holy shit for the first time since round three
all right
I'll try to force the opening fight and shot from his all but he hangs around only for
short.
Here to play in tandem with Mikazi, feels like you can't hang him out to dry.
All that Util, I signal the fall back and at least they've been able to block.
No punish, no chase. An honor ends in a stalemate.
The class is just looking for fights, popping shots through the smoke.
Is someone streaming your stream that has 4K viewers? What?
Tracing his aim with that AK-47 G2, don't want to tangle it.
Alexi starts his rotation back, bringing more supportive nades.
Well dude, don't stitch, and I'm gonna get fucking banned.
G2 once again, more of the same, out middle. Wonderful, he hit his last time full blind now.
40 seconds as he retreats, and G2 come running.
Bit on the line, that's a lot of damage.
Hunter dead first.
And it all starts to grind to an awkward halt.
Again, they're waiting for Mattis.
They're waiting for this player in the apartments.
G2 have to find a way to get on the same page very, very quickly
because as they enter this hostile territory,
entries will come through.
Bomb now planted.
Three versus three.
Best position you've been in in a long while.
What feels like an eternity to the G2 squad Nate even connecting wonderful iced out of the round
Alexia Mikazi with a question to ask themselves, how much do they value this AK?
Two versus three you've won some impossible rounds. In fact, that's why you've looked your best
So they're gonna try and play this one forward
Low time and that might just get the better of them Alexi no reason to give them a fight here
No reason to make this easy G2
Finally stopped the bleeding finally G2 played away and they put their life on the line
They come through some smokes. They look for trades. They brawl
Just have to keep playing like the same amount of fucking case
That's what we wanted to see from G2 think about
Yeah, it's a little goofy right now. It's a little goofy coming through the util not respecting navi
like just giving him out his face has helped G2 so much but I guess we just
like worried about it they're trying to close like too clean
yeah
play ball see that's exactly what got you like uh they whatever G2 gets these
leads either they just start like trying to play like too perfect except that
round at top card that round they just I don't know I don't know words to fall
out here on the dreaded final day of play be enough to do it for like you
have to play your own brand of strike by the end
like sometimes if you just like trying to end or like play perfect counter strike
because i know without it you're making a very perfect
yes great and all but usually you're just trying to make less mistakes than the
other guy that's really it it might be sloppy but just try to make less than
in the other guy. That's fine. This just seems like self-advertisement now.
Alright, take a break. Okay, maybe stop, maybe, maybe respect the
utility line. Honestly, don't get in their face.
Guys stop running through the top car smoke you die there
We're gonna play with balls like what a fucking idiot
Now we've got them by the balls now black screen G2 don't see a thing in this round. They just get destroyed
Lexi continues his stellar form
here heavy god don't say a word great positioning dream feel to be fair that
guy has been but this way oh my god oh
that big flank might not be for anything is heavy god trapped between a rock and a hard
place bomb out in the open now I have to go
Na'Vi!
Sampai is sold for a game, bringing the boost.
From those playoffs!
A very nice try.
It's in there, watching CCs, looking for a rotator.
Exactly that.
I haven't got killed two right there.
On Inferno.
Na'Vi two rounds.
If Sampai has to get that though,
it likes to be with Matlow.
He's in the Lancis again.
Like that sets.
And one hell of a recovery.
Maybe maybe chill over there
Teaside worries that was the story for both these squads now V
Struggle to find their footing. It was a lot of clutch rounds a lot of very dicey rounds in there
Okay, I complimented nerds
You're literally kept doing like two important kills all the time and then he stopped killing everyone for like 10 rounds.
You know, long first, but that's the type of shit he was doing earlier when G2 was on their roll.
Oh!
Wonderful you can't deserve that.
It's my code. I've never tried to respond if they want to check his message history of this OT
G2 look to return to regulation form
8 round CT side all that time ago
It is so so sick that we have like a 500 person crowd first stage three
FML as big a stage three the major W we take those we take those
Although we're a little bit more spread out we have more bars
and just a great time for nerds to deliver that
you feel like you know this is what we are
louder or worse you guys are louder than this crowd you guys literally drank the place
dry in 12 hours
in overtime gets things off to a rip roaring start
you guys are also quiet on day 2 because some of you
bro they're like three people in the back of the
he's not like not like slosh fast out like the I made it back into the venue
and I'm here and I'm not wasting my days but I drank too much yesterday and I'm
hungover so I'm just gonna rest my eyes
thing and I'll be playing a little bit more standard now
G2 or not they charge down they look for the fight head-on for nerds
one was my buddy he was out yeah yeah dude they too was so funny they've even
fumbled the boost as they went looking for info now the A side of the map a
Oh
25 and thanks to the Eresim. Oh my god. That made me mad. I'm sorry guys.
These guys are all so much better than me, but holy fucking holy shit.
They're giving me a whole lot of confidence right now.
Oh my god, the archfiend.
makes it into the big pit molly reigning in keep two players trapped it's very
very tight in the site all hunter dude how is this still alive this crossfires
doing it all hunter just won them this round started having fun on this
but wonderful from getting this bomb down but they have him trapped he is in a
cage right now that's from the long side heavy god in the pit wonderful is
working with inches so this is battle thinks they have you God's gonna give him
something first that's is still closing in from the long side
gotta pick a fight very carefully yeah and when that's surviving so in the
perfect moment wonderful clutch denied a G2
It was the fact that he died.
I would have literally been like kept casting.
I was fully locked in that he took a breath.
33 years old by the way.
33 by the way, 334, get on the way.
Lock in map points
Well like he did
I was there to drink it at the bar outside just before the doors open don't let me in with these
Then thank you so much for the 14 to busy like so 25 and Phil thank you again for the 105 men G2
And Navi is like really weak Phil
3B. Yeah.
4-1 short.
What is wonderful gonna get cut? Does he have blade-safe or something?
Did you just skip the entirety of this major and only watch such maps before you type it?
How much of the game plan feels open and RV that they've been one step ahead in terms of the
I don't want to time y'all.
Professor Frost, so do me a favor. You time yourself, you take your hands off the keyboard.
You either you can just go back one night for me, okay?
You come back after you do your homework professor. It's even now all this fake attention
You guys I'm learning kids on the way. See me back. I'm doing really good, right to pull more resources to that side of the map
In fact, it's send them away Hunter leaves. We're gonna have to go soon off
They just turned double Molly G2 are currently scrambling at this be bomb cyber nurse
Just push back through on his own with no flash dry
It is such a ballsy play. It has given so much information to G2 at 30 seconds
Surely they know
This is all the advantage in that head to head wonderful peeking into the angle
Oh god go somewhere else man
And oh god control. This is a
map 3
do the prediction of the 6-but primer thank you
heavy god and hunter man
oh thanks for the 86 man
I hope you're doing good, bro.
By the skin of their teeth, G2, get this.
Well, it's not right here, end of our show, bro.
Somebody said she was trying to get my attention,
so I'm going to be right back real quick.
But they hold this one in the 11th hour, Yanko.
I'm going to get all this to these two sides of her.
Story of this major, really.
We are fools, friend.
It is our fault we forgot it.
She's my pick game, though, eh?
They're all about the content, aren't they?
It has to go three miles.
They have to.
I don't know.
Stop making me pick when these two teams don't want to win.
Thank you. Thank you. So we're only to bring it back one last time
Yeah
The most clean wind of our city
I thought with my wife to watch this dream project bad time
Over the line a win is a win. No less. I mean
Put on like her
We started a mystery on Netflix for like 20 minutes and come back
I mean just tell me about the tail end of that and how you think they managed to pull it off. I don't know
It's good advice. It's on Zen.
Everything, you know, like they're playing good. They're outplaying.
Don't question my tech. I don't have a way. Don't worry about that guy.
You know, and then they're going sort of
Now you probably will be out of here.
Two rounds to pistols on that side. We were supposed to just close things out.
Again, losing 2v1 clutches, right? It goes into overtime, you think,
ah, they're going to run out of gas now. This is Navi, the experience sort of shines through
and they close it out, but G2 able to find a way somehow get around T side and close it out in CT.
Alright, everybody's favorite map, come on, come on, yes, ready?
Are they lost? Do you remember what it is?
Go back to the start. It's not the end, but you picked out something from earlier.
Everybody's favorite.
We talked about what does it take to overcome the loss on dust 2 right?
Nothing like the last three maps before playoffs and I gotta watch
That's you and turn over right in that order to holy fuck great start, right?
But then in the round after you have bits just walking short from the get-go
They're doing something weird on G2 some passes like looking at Hunter looking back
Not he wasn't jiggle peaking mid. So bitch. Just walks up kills heavy god completely
Alright, thank you guys, it's time for the third breakfast, okay second breakfast actually, I kind of skipped it earlier, so I'm gonna be right back, I'm gonna run that, you're not missing any part of the game, Mark takes the 9-man primary, what about Chelsea?
focus please it's all good nothing is done for them okay
we'll be next time
how do you write what you hear then?
I'll tell you what I'm talking about
his team and also I think it's really important the tone of his voice right like he's not necessarily yelling and berating
he's just speaking with confidence and sort of trying to instill belief in his team saying it's fine
like it's not the end of the world it's not your fault it's not your fault
Just let's refocus a little bit right to try to get back on track critiquing don't freak out
That's a I think that's one of those mistakes or it's such like a minor mistake anyway
it's sort of thing that only
Hurt you if they did exactly what they did where he went instantly on metal
And then I do a little some pie should be jiggle peeking
It was kind of interesting because that's probably the worst-case scenario because heavy
God is a guy dining the side and they lose the bombsite
So it kind of set her God off in a bad way and it was good CG to bouncing back from up
Okay, so we see how they did bounce back in the round immediately after yeah, and that's important like you need to
Believe right they say three guns, so it's not terrible like the hunter has an achy
And he's trying to you know, maybe do a little bit too much sort of the the lack info
So he tries to go and make a play and there's only two guys on a at this moment
This is where Navi because of the smoke they slow it down
You can see the rotate coming in from the B players as well
3v5, it's looking at the end, it's just ogling, like I don't understand at this point
when you kill the long plate, you run together a shot and trade him out, so it buys his smoke
going to the library, I'm not sure, instead of smoking him out, instead there's no smoke
and now they can just fold this, it's just overcooking it, it feels like leaving a long
look for some reason, the 5v3, just run and leave it, they're worried about one in this
moment.
They're worried more about Heavy God, who this time, the one round almost that you saw
in this half was not pit, he wasn't on the right side, sort of when you're pushing short
he was on the bomb site and everyone is sort of looking towards pit right
everyone's expecting heavy god to be there he has to peek or he has to do
something but he was inside yeah that was obviously not well played by by Navi
but it shows you like just the mentality of Hunter and then how it unfolded in
the following round and then it doesn't matter round three that you lost right
like you were back at it. Speaking of Hunter's mentality he gets a hell of a
lot of impact in this round seven. Yeah this is like a nice little idea I
I believe they're from Navi where you just felt like we talked about in the last game how none of the individuals showing up
And here's nice little B pot from deep really far back
Let's get some more thought down. I think Hunter even gets pushed back in a moment. Oh, sorry, Mattis goes down
So this is a good job and since he's had them both over time and regular time
He was really good
He got two kills here and again
I just feel like lack of quality from now like it feels rushed
It feels messy the guys running with the bomb out before you can clear the angle properly
He goes down Hunter has a nice play and he was nice seeing the individuals showing up a bit more
Also, they're just running and Bit is sort of shocked how what the hell happened, you know, he had a Molly, but they were exposed to ruins, you know, before he could use it, and they could just hide and wait for that utility to come in.
So yeah, that's still the sloppiness that we see from Navi, but Hunter was definitely on a mission on Inferno, right, like maybe realizing he needs to go for more of plays like this to give some momentum to his team so they can start believing again in the comeback.
It totally makes sense, right? We know Hunter to be, you know, a pass, one of those heavy hitters in terms of the Fragment Department.
But then when we switch onto the T side, what do you feel like the game plan was here from Hunter?
The Dabby simulator, just like we saw on Dust2 really.
And, you know, Navi wins the pistol, G2 goes for an equine from the first gun round.
We just see them really wanting to put the hurt towards Alexei and Makazi.
This was a bit fortunate from some players, just from the random smoke he catches, Alexei Makazi at that point.
And if he gets a kill, he's going to get traded in the round, we'll be over.
But, you know, we were talking about Makazi and his tournament here, like,
it went from him being the star player on his team to just sort of being abused now.
Here, I'm not even sure, you know, he gets flashed, like, this is an X,
but like, you know, you think they're just going to randomly flash and do nothing?
Like, he just gets caught completely, oh, God, it doesn't feel like his head is really in the game whatsoever.
Yeah, as a young guy, I'm wondering as well, is this because we can see now
We were very frustrated at the moment with all the pressure on the back of them
I wonder if he's struggling being that rocky with forget how young he is sometimes well
And you just kind of hard getting abused a game
He did kind of bring it back towards the end
But it's like a small win at the moment like the dust to game
He wins a 1v2 after having a horrible like kind of game entirely he had some moments
But this isn't the Maca's that we've seen this year
Yeah, I think it's only correct actually in the early stages of that second half
Definitely not the Maca's a beauty
He did come and had a bit of a research
It's probably one of the reasons why we managed to see this one push to OT
Any kind of final thoughts on how G2 were able to get this one over the line ash?
Well, I think they were much better
The thing that kind of made this game so close my opinion was that G2 just couldn't close a lot of the after plants down for some
Reason and Navi on their T side. They were lucky to get four then Alexey
4k and a low buy they win the four spy
They would pass it still in a Macca as a clutch like he felt like they weren't really convincedly winning around
But then when G2 were getting the bomb sites, they were struggling to close them out
So this was a really risky pick from Navi, really risky pick for the Vito, not going to that ancient.
And this really backfired, and it should have been a cleaner win, I think, for G2.
And in the end, I believed, as well, I thought G2 were going to lose this in overtime.
So, they played for them, getting over the line, but this could be something they looked back on and go,
why didn't we go to ancient?
Yeah.
Hopefully now we're getting the best of this series, which I know sounds crazy,
because we had two really entertaining close maps, but this is where I think Navi has won six or seven in a row, right?
Last loss was in Rio, G2 won 5 in a row, undefeated here in Cologne at the Major, so a lot of both teams coming into it with a lot of confidence and hopefully we see a better level than some of these clutches from the side of G2 and just with everything else from the side of Navi.
It's been entertaining, has been scrappy, it's been a bit crazy, bit chaotic, GT's starting on the T side of things Ash, what are you hoping for here?
I'm hoping to win some rounds. That would be nice. I want to see Nerts. I'm hoping to see Nerts have a good T side.
I think so far he's been great on the CT side and T side has been absolutely nowhere and he's just so important for the way he plays.
So, him doing something there. I want to see like a close first half because this Mirage both have good form.
Actually it's not a punish pick at last. It should be a really good game so I kind of want to see competitive.
Yeah, I think from the other side. It's also this is where you look to bit an EMA somewhat even because this has been a staple map
Right on T side also being able to sneak around and bit on CT and T side as that lurker in
Palace right that it feels like he's gonna have to
Win a round or two for his team because they're struggling to sort of connect really on the on the T side
And they will need some of those some of that individual prowess
I think together over the line quite literally all comes down to this the final map of stage three here in
Cologne to decide the final team to be making it to the playoffs is going down on Mirage between Navi and G2 after this short break
The best of Counter-Strike 2 available now on shop.esl.com
The dispatch is back and looking better than ever.
Oi!
Get some move on, you know who we are!
This season it's bigger deliveries, bigger personalities, and bigger problems, featuring
special guests.
Alex, what the hell is happening?
And of course, the team you know.
Is this really necessary?
There it is!
I got it!
I don't know if you noticed this, that you do have a bomb in this round.
I don't know, it's probably not because I'm entry.
And you're going in CT, despite your... you didn't know that.
That's what I thought.
Now people are screaming, Matus, bomb, bomb, I remember.
It's like, oh, okay, okay, okay.
We're going to be watching some clips from your Mirage against Navi.
This is very interesting, because you make a bomb plant and you take CT with this kind of a smoke,
which is not meta, really, to throw smoke in this kind of a zone,
but you also understand that there are a lot of CTs coming from spawn.
While this smoke is up, can you explain what you're doing?
The chance of them going through the smoke without any flashes is very low.
They can go 3-2-1, but I said to...
I don't know who is next to me, 100% I said to be anti-flash.
And I just risked it, they will not jump through like 3-2-1,
because they were also shooting, it was weird, you know, like most lucky the flash will come.
Exactly what happened, and now we had a good chance basically to win the round.
Yeah, the smoke is out of meta, not a lot of people do it, but it makes sense because
a lot of times when you go for execute as T,
then if they don't fight you, it's not as like most of the times people will go CT.
Because it's easier for them to retake from CT. It's obviously more abuse, but that's the reality how CT usually retakes, especially also on pistols, the same for Barons.
Also predicting these kind of flashes is kind of an important skill to have. Like, you kind of read the situation when the flash is coming and you play accordingly to it.
Exactly, because when you see like there is, I think it was 5v5 or 4v4 when we went to execute and there is almost 100% chance.
Either they have smoke, dualist, dualist, or flash is always, yes, so it's 100% they will have some lanes,
at least most of the times good teams have some lanes.
They will have some plan for the retake, if they give you the site and you play the after plant,
they obviously come up with a plan how to retake and that plan is not going to be
walk through the smoke or anything like that, it will involve some kind of flashes.
All right, we were thinking about these things very deeply and I like it how you're sharing it with us.
Here I have a note that's...
I don't know if you know it's true.
Did you do have a bomb in this round?
Because when you're executing a...
I don't know, I can probably tell because I'm an entry.
And you're going in CT.
You didn't know that?
No, that's what I thought.
Now people are screaming, Matt was bomb, bomb, I remember.
I was like, oh, okay, okay.
Because I even swing the CT game.
There is no tomorrow.
It was Mario that gave you the C4.
I didn't know. Maybe he said it, I overheard it.
Maybe he didn't say it.
But I remember that I said like, oh, I have bombs. Never mind.
I was when I was doing practice for these clips for you.
I was immediately like, what the hell is this guy doing?
How he wants to see?
Sure, why not?
He's doing like this.
Yeah, that was a huge...
I don't want to say a mistake, but it could have...
It could have backfired.
Yes, yes.
Maybe if it would be, if it would be 4v3, I would die with the bomb, 3v3 now.
On the Kevlar go past you.
Now we have to pick up the bomb.
It would take more seconds for us to plant.
They would have better positions probably already.
And you see, you see.
It happens to the pros as well.
Sometimes you do have a bomb and you don't know about it, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Like I said before, people think sometimes people don't think they're not making mistakes in the juice.
It's happening all the time.
You just sometimes, you don't believe it.
G2 CT side on Inferno keeps him in this series they weather the storm against
Navi and we go the distance
Yeah, it's almost impossible
I'm sorry
Shut up man, the guys are left again?
Yeah, bro
I'm not laughing, I don't know if you believe me
I just shut up
I'm sorry
are lighting up the scoreboard but a bit of a disappearing act from wonderful cannot be desired
for the RV come this third map yeah when you came into this series especially after seeing what he
bought us on Dust2 you thought to yourself well wonderful will be game defining but aspects the
guys just didn't pass the mic check I'm too old the babies did that kind of shit
again or else NAVI could be in jeopardy.
It's G2 with a T side start.
I'm looking to kick this one off for it with a bang.
They're going straight towards this B bomb site.
Maybe some trickery in this yet still actually is two players start to walk in through lower.
It's alright.
What have they got prepped here?
All great time with the flash.
They don't know his backfights still either.
Oh, good.
So they're trying to pop out B, and they had two bottom con?
And everybody just fucking died. They got sacked.
They are old? Yeah, but it's kind of nice.
Because you just get to say, like, I'm old and cranky
when somebody ragebates, and you just like, ban them.
of Inferno
That was actually fucking disgusting though all the like the double Conlerc just got
Everything just got shit on really the pistol game across the series script. Thanks for the former Palmer pizza
The
Patron thanks to the two months, Nibbles and Bids thanks to the 23.
Gio thanks to the two months, Reson thanks to the 53.
JT thanks to the two years, welcome back.
Shady thanks to the six months, Altering thanks to the 44.
G2 full eco, pass the deagle.
Um, which is not normal normally you get three on third map you knife
So G2 got to remove the last one up and they got
No, that's not right. Oh
It changes the video entirely so here on Mirage looks like Navi gets the last choice on the third map and then they get
Okay, off the night
We've had an overtime and a full 24 round game. So what does that mean for Mirage?
You know it might be a long road
hmm normal fuck the vetoes are weird I know one of them gets
time to rest in the end how am I spacing it out in the sport having a mental breakdown
the most potential to be page why does the plan track it was low because teams
are actually losing leaves for beautiful kills I'm passing out of a nice
a1s three speakers are not cleanly so that'll help them spreading this
information no they do get side choice um and they don't know i'm just trying to remember how it works
so i have the right final answer but i can't remember just how it works going on here mechanical
level that looked insane adamikazi it's a great time come a map of mirage and a ct side for
not every day one of the 12 month recent i think it's a decided higher thing is what she's
It's an absence in that first half alongside wonderful wonderful never really got back in that game because he certainly did
T sides were still troubling here for Navi today
Prediction still up mods
So happy for most teams at this major seed is like your your brain will just say
So G2 from the back man. Have you done. Thanks for the year reset. Thank you
And they make a lurch forward
Bit on the balcony. No one else offering any assistance in this site
Lies on middle for Navi have you started this man all this behold it was too strong
They leave Ema there alone in spite of it being tagged up and that really does scream to a bit of a read
This one's looking at finish. That was a nice lead wonderful gets himself in position out towards CT in time
Even a smoke to block ramp. Let's do this. Who goes first a ramp first and come on the palace
I'm right through a ramp calm palace. It's mccasey down in connector causing big problems for G2
Got a hunter do a lot of damage for the job of far from how they're actually pulling this back
Look at the HP. You know give it a lot of time to get comfortable here that bomb plant
Oh my god, heavy guy, it's the old hunter.
I'm gonna please call the innocent coast.
I can hear it.
And that could have made all the difference.
Suddenly, it'd be scrambling to get this bomb down.
Instead, G2, get to ease into these post plants.
That's wrong.
Hunter and heavy God.
This is a nuts pullback from these two.
They're still going.
to shut it down
Ema with
Combining the same g2 desperate round for Ema that spray is just optimistic
Yeah, I don't know. I can't even see his
May as well thanks for the 12 month resubundation
7 months to go up first, just fed to the wolves of g2
2v4 when all is said and done on this A bomb site
G2 and a massive pick up despite the mccasey multi-day clip
Yeah, Blade wants to get on the mic control the team that they played it right
They just fucked up again
Again still G2 clutch it up on this a site to get in the game early. No waiting around for that
And I'll be find opportunity in the form of an orb on wonderful in a very low economy force 2m 4s
I'm trying to break in while G2 just enact their game plan
What are they looking like? They want to be a bit tricky from the pistol onwards.
On all these other maps so far, Blade's given Navi the chance. Really, it's been two rifle rounds before he's looked to get hyper-involved.
Here, what would it be in the decider in a very tight series? He weighs in straight away.
They got one chance to show they have what it takes and they don't.
Blade hops on the mic.
How come ours is actually a machine?
G2 going about this mid-control and no one from NAVI with an earshot to stop them.
There's this hastily assembled boost out towards the window trying to give Ema an angle.
I hope they can switch him online.
I already passed this though G2 that is underneath
Oh
Easy grab for Ema
Could have been hunter. It's a slimy boost man
Navi sit back with the 5e4 no you tell no kids this round is no guarantee
There are options for G2 and Navi will not initiate another move they have great position on the map
They have RAM control retake on a spawn site
I think they're gonna call me a loser for that hell yeah man
U-Till does add a lot of stress
Fuck it, a lot of narrowing
Dude how the fuck do they just
It's like they just slip a switch right in the middle of it
Right in the middle of it, they look like, okay, 3-2-1, everyone kill him.
Damn, bro.
Matt, there have been a lot of individual moments right now for G2.
Oh, oh.
I just-
I'm saying, they're just repeating this right now from Dust2.
many advantageous rounds won by Na'Vi but bitches couldn't finish his meal on
that second kill. Mattis goes on to find a triple. Disasterous rounds here and the
eye test I'm just saying so four rounds in. Ema, his POVs have looked actually
dirty in a bad way in these aim holes. The FAMAS question, the FAMAS should have given up.
The MP9 got worse, so more people use the FAMAS now.
I can't believe Matta stays on that angle after one.
So G2, a very clutch round indeed, leaving just wonderful save door.
B is gonna go into scout.
Gaps just all across the map here with only that all up to work around.
So for G2, it's just a matter of finding them.
I'm curious if they just like actually send them in with real support or...
Looks like a good round for a B-pop though.
Oh, he's just fully calling the team.
Head of the Molotov.
No fakes.
Only this eagle on the bombsite.
No scout.
Oh, while the eye-tested Ena got you nervous.
He's that's a right choice sequences to get this map going
He's one guy with a deagle up against the entire e of g2 talk about overwhelming odds
Dead after one heavy go gets past him. Yeah, I mean he's just got to go for the Hail Mary there
There's nobody there for rotation. See if anything presents itself anything to make this interesting
That bomb going down if wonderful calm force wonderful. He's got to be careful not to lose this
one ever begins for Navi
and he is out of there G2 play a time they know it's just these pistols
the WEP and so they think twice before going for any audacious swing G2 moving
into the lead and obviously a squad of VIP get back to that end of that the
staffing trouble up to me AWP on the save as G2 find clean rounds three alive
Last time four in this one building a bit of a bang
What no email can't stop on the exit
G2 making the most out of this opportunity
This is a team with three players who have never seen a major playoff
some pious heavy-goat and Mattis would be their first time versus a squad major
winners and a McCarthy who at his first major already pulled up into the
semifinal in Budapest
It's crazy how long Mikasa has been on the team, but it feels like it's been like he's
just joined.
Talked a lot about the legacy of these organizations, the multi-appearances in the Lanxus for Narvi
across the years.
I think it still feels recent to me.
They've made you trophies to their name and has been quite a fall from grace for G2 ever
since they lost Niko and Monocene.
But this would be one way to put them back on the map right at the end of this season.
It's been a G2 struggled in these final stages ahead of the playoffs, falling out of both
majors in this exact game.
It's been six months though.
Nah, he's been longer than that.
I think he's been a year, right?
It's trying to park that trend today.
I mean, I know you guys are doing this way a bit, but...
It's heartbreak for whoever loses
Doing a good job of kind of keeping you nervous about this mid control
Spirit no coach man fix for a lot of these rounds. I know everybody likes the meme
I have a lot with you could see them start to get shaky in this position, but that's us way out of there
To get into the playoffs to Navi dedicate to middle. They found kills in this position
I feel like a coach would help a lot
with it they go for the clear gamer hunt takes the two months thank you if they can
empty this position right now in five minutes from the 48 hunts I'm glad you're playing the maps
oh no it's only matters at top middle oh are they gonna clear them out or they're just gonna
let them sit here you guys you're losing game on site blocking vision from the connector
didn't get the info fast enough and with ima dead man what are you doing what are you doing
What are you doing?
So you're really dead ass just gonna let him sit top mid and actively duel him, just go kill him.
You already lost the ace.
There were four people on Navi looking at one player top mid.
Just go kill him!
by that point G2 have already won the round. They've got the kill, they've got the side control, they've got smokes down.
RV, the idea was right.
Tomorrow G2, everyone's looking quite comfortable doing their job. These have been clean finishes to these rounds.
Seng cannot be set for Na'Vi, they have 18 kills across the board and 11 of them are coming from wonderful.
Wonderful.
You Mikaze.
Heroine 4 here.
Kazza really is trying.
Yeah, they could have used this on the other map though.
Surprise.
Not fully blaming him, but it should be the guy to find. Mikaze has been pretty missing.
feeling some pressure if you can
Lock up the fucking you're right. So he's playing great right now. He's getting some help
That's a power there once they go for this mid-control you till I mentioned taking up
So they go frags okay, even if you take them away what G2 intend to do with this space
But you've lost it in almost every one of these rounds
That's just flying behind is more kills in his whole team here for G2 is the world the possibilities
He's even waits.
Kind of catch players, back turn, that 5-7, only good for one.
Hunter controlling these rotations from the window side, and another clean round, bestowed upon G2.
Alexi complicates it with that one.
He won't hang around, won't attempt this.
He's just looking for a save.
That's what all these kills for Nabi have been, saving players in desperate moments trying to hold on to their guns.
This is a T-side that is starting to swell out of control.
G2 just keeping it very simple, very sight heavy, lots of executes.
In a major we've seen, difficulty on T-sides, a lot of comebacks in second halves.
G2 making the most of this T-Side of Mirage and just punching Navi while they're down.
These quiet starts from multiple Navi players starting to feel like more and more of a problem
and Blake can just see these rounds passing them by.
I'm here. I was going to eat a little bit bro.
While we're talking about the eye test on Mikazi looking real good, Mattis is certainly
showing a lot of form to open up on this third map.
What do you mean by you're eating bro?
Oh my first bit of protein today.
Now a 180 throwing in there as well to stop a 5-7 multi kill, which had been a real threat
at this major.
5-7 looking straight broken at times.
G2 keeping it simple in this round.
They know they've done so much conditioning
about this mid control.
They're going just to roll out the red carpet with an A-play.
Might work wonders.
Our players trapped in the connector.
That lets you know your plan has worked.
It's just big.
That's the only question mark right now.
That's the only guy you're going to deal with.
Ema coming around.
They're shooting back a little bit now.
Hell of a hole for him out of the spawn.
Eat this round.
Wonderful smoke spam connecting
Heavy God an impossibility as he's trapped in a corner. Finally. No, I'm gonna be streak
And they say enough with middle full fights on that a-side for Navi
They put all their pieces in the right place. They don't worry about lurkers
They realize she too is just throwing a full side tech second
Everybody keeps the pressure on sports side setup baiting G2
Navi knocked them out cold
back on the board after some high eight boys seem so far in this major though this
side is monstrous breaking G2's money I don't know the one percentage for these
teams on this map but this is like I'm not even getting like five rounds lately
in this major on T-Sat mod fields on the edge of the smoke catches another not
insane
winning fights at the start of this round
Mattis, clashing with Mikazi
is the job that I got in the info
Mattis, you're sitting in combat
he knew he had to take on the rifle
that's as Mikazi gets the info
now following through with this aggression
Mikazi on a deep line, a one that
G2 simply aren't ready for
Okay, McCarthy says my performance will not be in vain on this map 14 frags now
He is up the scoreboard and still storming for more pushing up the top of middle
Kim and wonderful
The highs and the lows of this series for Navi
Winning clutches back on dust to
To going absent on Inferno
contend for you know that Navi are going to be coming from this position like the G2 T-Sense they've been very like
To try to sound smarter than I am one note, but I
This guy wants to go to those playoffs. It look he like looks like it's working most of the time though
I'll be player from the get-go who was performing and now a tie game a five ball
I'll be getting their second wing. This is the macaque they need this whole major man
And map 3, map 3 to go to playoffs is a good time to do it, if we're gonna be missing.
I had cells on the mic now.
5-5.
even game you think you think Navi wins this half here guys 7-5
Oh, fast bit, fast bit.
Damn, timeout from G2.
Novi tries to get aggressive to distrust whatever they're calling in the timeout.
I know this orb is here. Novi trying to 3v5.
Novi gets caught from underpass.
It might not matter if Wandaful could just stop this bomb.
Heavy God will be able to make it.
Made it by timeout.
Yeah.
Well, I hope you deal with the Wandaful or his concealing.
Oh!
Heavy God catches him stepping out wide.
Oh, those of you that said 6x6.
What if it's 7-5?
That'd be a small timeout man.
No worries, no issues here for G2, no chance to stumble in this round.
Navi are still gonna give it a look and they're buying in this final battle.
I love that out of G2 though man, they literally just punish the aggression out of it their own timeout.
I don't know where they're going for this.
It's what they're asking you to expect that is that they G2
They don't watch all of Counter-Strike all the time
They hang around, they play ball
When the team that calls the timeout, usually, you know, they don't necessarily do like some grand chat
G2, lead retaken, right at the tail end of the ball
But usually they have something kind of set called
And something that goes really well if you're the opposition when your opponent calls the timeout
is to get aggressive
And that's what Navi went for
So, Navi went for something off that timeout to try to disrupt whatever GT was calling
during that timeout and really, Nerds was just waiting here because they were about to crunch
mid.
They let them get in mid and then they were crunching.
Even if Nerds doesn't get to there, they were going to clean that up.
It's hard to say if that's exactly what went down there, but it's still in a sea of very
red games.
it's a four and ten that impact hard to say if that's exactly what went down in that round but it looked like it
oh play with fire here
that's easy
we're ready for email that's a really nice setup just to put him in a position to succeed
almost stories eight man some pirates and nerds have replied back into a three on three
on the other end of the map out of
mccasey he'll push through the
apartments. Nurtz is also here
roaming with the bomb. This fight
decides a hell of a lot. Nurtz
with a critical kill. He didn't
walk PQ. He might have had a chance
but. And now the whole map is one
big question mark to Navi. You saw
that bomb moving into the
apartments justifiably. They're
worried about a B play. That's
going to leave them out of position
as G2 regroup. Probably just
to gamble men in the 33. Yeah.
It's going to be difficult with this all up on wonderful.
Can you just stay on this A site and lock down a line?
I wonder what what he goes for, though.
Is he going to say?
Hold it.
He's not buying it.
Wonderful.
Those scope, they might be able to jump on him from the palace.
Thirty seconds as he is uncertain about position.
That's when he got strikes three on one.
Some prices fake.
I like that, too, because there's with palace and it's all on the captain of
the bomb. There's a chance still. That's a big problem. You made a
smart. You're going to retrieve that bomb. Oh, you got it. This now becomes a very
tall order for Alexi. It doesn't rely on him. It relies on a some pious miss. He goes looking
for this fight. But some pious on the line. Let's increase him in a little bit later. They've
got post plants now around the bomb. Alexi coming to grips with just how impossible this clutch is.
It got him iced out. There's nowhere left to turn and they'll finish the job at G2.
Win out on the half in the deciding map. Well, seven-five guys, this is the other way.
That is heads up. I'm running it out, okay? You're not missing any of the game and just in
in case the game says it's closed.
Nothing will play it over time.
It's looking like G2's game right now, but we've learned anything in this series so far.
You can trust both teams when they have a lead.
Both teams play incredibly predictable counter-strike that allows us to just make good educated
guesses on what's going to happen.
I see no problem with you to closing out this game with the lead.
Are you ending the stream?
Uh, yeah, yeah, I'm going to be done.
I'm going to end the stream and then I'm going to record the podcast with
Dinka Moses.
Oh, yeah, we should react to some of the news.
The roster moves, uh, before I go.
One will be live, hopefully tomorrow, latest Wednesday.

Helleday, Helleday
What is he doing this? Call the save, Luma Nosti, with the onplay.
G2 seizing the opportunity, storming ahead against Navi, a 7 round T side on Mirage, when all is said and done, and that is without pistol in this third and final map.
G2 grabbing chances to go to the playoffs for the first time for this squad.
Hey guys, welcome back from the ad apologies
We run them responsibly here make sure you don't miss shit
Appreciate it, and I do see the following. Thank you guys
Can't afford to be a one-man show now. You need more support G2 and I'll be boys
You know the usual suspects getting online wrong answers only decided G2. It's been heavy-god at leading the way
Had a number of high-impact kills felt like he kept hitting timings on wonderful
especially in their head to heads energy and which seem to just have all the
space all the room they ever could have wanted now it's not these turn on the
T side will G2 do them the same privilege of free mid-control in his
little love man I'm gonna see a bit more of a fight because you're in the setup
right now it looks like G2 oh okay that's what I'd be so tell if I'm
Hunter man
Making incision he creeps up close right down this corner bit lies in wait and they're pulling his attention to the wrong way
They never let Mattis get too comfortable
where to turn and so g2 to rely on a force by every like read to a fan just go
man this fits a shithole and then like you realize that like these are the
people that drive cars often come to stacks and so Navi try to avoid it they
might be onto something
pro doesn't know they revoked my license and I'm a felon my bed mods that
What the fuck is that guy?
I'm gonna keep an eye on that motherfucker
We have a lot of firepower to leave back on Julie takes to the 9 month partner
None of that stops you from driving well that might be why he's a fellow dude. Maybe don't encourage him
Man it's like I've been driving for years without a license
Maybe keep it up be in the running a long enough for some other faces to find their form
I saw the red I think the race it dropped in when you can see that 2v1 at the end of dust 2
But absolutely, for his standards, quiet series, not a quiet watch.
That's uncapping about, don't worry about it. We get off track here, okay, we're old.
I'll be happy to thank him for being here.
Speaking of which, one minute left on this camera.
Cheats you keep. Weapons on four and give it.
I don't always call out the Lurks, okay, the new followers,
but thank you very much for the follow of Fatty McFatfuck. Thank you.
Welcome, welcome, you're in the red stream.
Can you, thanks for the nine month reset, thank you, thank you.
What?
It's a solid name.
My bad for calling out the lurk, but like, thanks for the follow man.
Welcome.
They've got four by coming
Some pies or if he wants it
Well, I just if I'm thinking about what Navi has right now
They have two my tens to my tens the chances of Navi calling a default in this upcoming round or kind of low
But you don't know about the second one. I don't think you know, there's one for sure
if I know for sure they have two math 10s I'm expecting some sort of like gimmick or
like execute it's not a default
holy shivs what the f***
where does this series lead us
one through one I think it is impossible to come hunter I think I was hunting
if I heard that right then they're playing for me
I think I heard somebody else well I don't know how to be there
got the wrong idea some pious also interesting though they upgraded the gun
Yeah, 5v4 4g2
Thomas my brooms quite late. I feel bad for him before there. I like you got a bit robbed
Suppliers thankful for it
To one of how we doing we're doing great. Thanks. You're 13 months. I'm a shot him at that name
I forget why he's beat a hunter. Holds the line beat the smoke. We didn't do to you. I don't think
What more could they want?
didn't keep Macs ends. They blow up the mid fight, Mr. walking through the apartments,
but he was like, thanks to the 44. I'm still so surprised how much he always starts with
a default or some variation of it. Five players alive at the end of this. Because like, save
called for Navi G2, they always do this. Active stance out towards middle. There's such a
great team to learn from. If you're trying to get into the team counter strike, Navi is
You lose those midfights so decisively you don't want to feel like you kind of I do feel like that is maybe one of their big fault
It feels like they're always trying to quote unquote play proper and I think
No, they call other stuff they don't only default they just really like it, you know
and they're not playing the defaults the same way it's not not saying they
literally just start the game every single way and everybody just like no
set of counter but most teams know that they don't have to worry about anything
gambling against probably early times came too quick try to jump the gun on
there I just think it's a negative there's pluses and minuses of what
everybody does. I think one of the negatives of AlexiBee and Blade Together is they genuinely
seem like they're a match made in heaven in terms of how they like to mid-max the game
and think about the game. And I think sometimes that can be a fault too. Then you just kind
of can maybe be a bit more predictable. You mean like walking up A site dry? Yeah exactly
like bitches fucking on that second round on inferno I guarantee you he just got
upset like maybe maybe ever on but that looks like angry just decided to walk
up late because he knew he could back to it
and you said fuck it push out towards the outer edges of the map what's the
No, min-maxing it's like a
They're gonna fall into a calm split and they know what's happening
This thing didn't work
Fake on beat
Can bit keep it up. It could sell something some pies is rotating
They're trying to force another kill 20 seconds caught off guard by that swing and where's the bomb?
She too don't see it that keeps a player in position that keeps heavy God hanging on 15 seconds
I don't know if Alexi wants it that bad and if he does
Supplies has the cross covered so say remember earlier when I was talking about like these people keep after like why is
He's had more hours. She's so strong right now the major
These rounds you can't play these guns around
It's not that they never worked.
It's just, ohhhh.
Look at how G2 moved.
They knew everything Navi was doing off of one kill.
Dude gets this kill, backs up the ticket.
He knows that there's another one going to stairs, angles him out, and then his A-Ramp player immediately turns to pick up Palace because he knows the lurks coming out.
Like...
There's nothing.
He knows that you need to be a little bit
Spontaneous you don't need to full-on plug. I'm not saying you gotta run it down and coming into this second point with the math
Which doesn't screen to an all that's been hyper-involved
Alexi through there needs to be you need to break the rhythm a little bit
I'm really glad they're getting a play in these rounds
It's come down to your rifle is having to provide having to get the the job done just throwing Nate sets
same blaze as Rod? nah, nah
ima lucky im dead again, but this time its a equal chance
just the downside of certain things
and I think Navi actually, Navi used to be one of the best mirage teams in the world
but I think that was because BIT was maybe one of the first time was the best lurker
on this map I've ever seen and Jail was very, very, very good at calling his own number
And those two things were like a match made in heaven.
There you go, there you go, fuck the pop slash, fuck it, take the stairs.
Well, bombs down 30 seconds, gotta try again to get this bomb done.
Wonderful just got baited so hard, but that was an example. That's a really good bait from Emma.
Eliminates the possibility of a multi-kill.
No, no, no.
That reposition is great. No, no.
If Emma over-peeps, there's a chance that he dies for free, not knowing where that offers position.
Emma makes the guy run at his teammate wonderful, sells them, lets him die, guarantees the
trade.
Frustrating for her wonderful, it's a really emo feeling, but if Emma steps too far, there's
a chance that some pious Zodiac kills them.
It's a good, it's a good bait, it's a good bait.
the pressure on g2 and navi are able to capitalize after two saves continuing on
this t-side
nine to nine man got a little scrappy there a little bit of walkout on some
timings
Oh
My time on ends or time out starts interesting in this is such an important time out on time out. Holy fuck
That's a sore one at his time to speak as well
We are late in the series now nine all what does the time out into a time out line for both of these squads
Holy shit
These are like
This is kind of wicked I can begin the downward spiral
Someone's gonna do it we need to get some like animations going on up scotches
If one ever calls the timeout after the other they just go into an absolute
Like an anime fight exactly yeah
the
so what do we get after two years after two coaches call timeouts
of your entire major default from not be
but it's just slightly slower either on the
contest from G2 success and Ema offers that as the opening move
he never even saw him he just knows
What would I do?
What an incredible check from EMA.
Lexi's got crazy balls peeking there.
That B site looks tantalizing indeed.
Such a different game that he can do that because he knows the opera is not to the same window.
It's going to be a save.
It kind of has to be.
You almost want to gamble in this spot.
Hunter's going to recommit, try and do what he can.
But he's one guy up against the entirety of Na'vi.
He's picked his battle here. Oh, my
Pick underpass my group he hits the flashes were great
Navi is in the lead while trying to close the game up
Like getting a clean round this late in the game
Ensure g2 gets to keep themselves above water by saving if you're g2 you want to contest
Maybe you do it again closer to the major play ball of blood double down
Or do you sit back cuz you feel like you could beat them later in the rounds cuz you're really has no chance
Cannot fire back. He doesn't see a thing you want before not really trying to contest them too much there
Or even in this one
They're in control god damn it.
Glory of the States to the 49th primary, thank you.
This is G2's money I think as well, right?
Yeah, this is what you expect of it to show up. I think we've been somewhat doubtful of them in this series because they've shown weakness, they've shown shakiness, they've shown a choke against the Valkans yesterday.
A game they couldn't close out from the advantage in that third map.
I'd love to hear listening to both coaches like timeouts. Let me stick. Let me so fuck
They did it they ran it back boys they doubled down they fucking double down not be trying to speed up the pace in mid to and they got caught for it
too soon
No, it's good. Navi tried to get greet. Well, I'm not greedy, but for an answer
I'll be thought after last round they might get a little bit more room in mid and g2 double down and ran right into him
Oh
What I believe he's escaped and that's let's him get out. Oh nurse. You got a trade that escape
what
That's all that work for the early advantage now reduced to this at 3v3
What a shot out a wonderful by the way. What the fuck is that? I'm feeling the stress right now
They're relying on a readout of Alexi might be out of the round in the literal sense
You can still call them out of this spot
They're excellent back over towards B
G2 trying to get ahead of this. I'll leave nerds
Ross the monster with the 37 month promise. Thank you. So cheeky you wouldn't would you this late in the round?
I'll be going all the way because you can even throw an execute if you want
But now if you're gonna get so much space this space that you two are considering
Oh my god
Reaper thanks to the Fiverre thank you dude
What the fuck, what the fuck
Ohhhh
Some popping
the game.
Give him just a sliver out towards the jungle and boy does he make it count back and forth
and back again.
Do we go late in this game?
No rest.
I mean those aren't just like two.
That was those shots were so important.
He's a step from there.
He takes that kill with him.
These are so important.
Was that the two walls?
No, it looked like close right and the edge a little bit.
I don't know dude. That little wood wall that he shot through doesn't damage reduce like suck all.
You can 100 to 1 people through that corner in jungle.
They don't get that loss bonus
They have to win this round their major allies on it
They go down
Must be some shit
this major run hanging in the balance some pirates with an opening heavy God
striking oh heavy God wait wait wait wait he's stuck inside he's stuck inside
do me too oh it's time to be full of dogs now it's left to Ema
bomb out in the open and everything is curses fucking view model this is where
the pressure is dialed to 11 what's Ema doing reroute around to jungle but there's
Nothing to be found here. He's got 20 seconds to work. Oh, you got it bro. You gotta go back. What are you doing?
Is this really just the save wow?
No, be throwing the towel
Three question mark, please back
She's mind
What is he trying to be found it's a default what happened here?
He just gets out. Maybe feel like you have more time than he did someone dead come there either way
confusing close
All right
Shattered just this AK-47 up against 11 G2 are almost
Bro had no idea how much was like the time was left in the round
Some pious man. What a couple of shots. What a man was just checking out the entirety of the map Mirage
And heavy God under the balcony
See why this is what I told you guys this is why I love
majors and normally this happens more so in the arena, but like
You watch a player that would absolutely ravage you from the complete comfort of their home
just like run around the fucking map and have no idea.
sure humbles us all you know this one more than others try as Emma might is
this elimination yeah bro this is for the last lot in play I'm gonna try and
lead the way here it's one rifle a sea of pistols around him hoping to set him
up Matt is close on this line so this one kill won't come to matter G2 will have two
at chances to lock in a playoff appearance holy shit they're actually gonna be on 12
fail to capitalize you can't be such good news for G2 fans they never throw a lead
they're 12 rounds
to waltz into those playoffs after a nail-biter of a series versus this navi squad
no it's just crashed there but it was a 4v1 so luckily it doesn't come to cost anything here
for G2 they hold on they stop that hero rifle from getting anything
Yeah, what do you think they're serving at that concession stand over there, Chad?
Anybody know the menu?
On the borderline of nothing, Tukulel's attack nine.
I'm just curious, man. Sorry. Stay focused. My bad. My bad.
This is one stressful series, actually.
I'm saying, Chef, my event, way better food.
You can literally get a full rack of ribs in my land.
You ever see people incredibly hungover that can barely stay awake, just slowly eat ribs
and just slip into despair?
Because they're about to do it all over again?
I have.
For real?
Yeah.
But we got a whole ass kitchen.
We got a whole fucking menu, dude.
We got waiters and waitresses in my land.
We're balling out, dude.
I had that opportunity back on Inferno with the...
Like $80, I bet?
I don't know. Somebody look up the menu.
They're online. I can't remember what they're doing.
It definitely is not 80 bucks.
What, dude? Know your audience.
I know who's showing up to my land event. God damn it.
I have called to the exact audience I want.
Damn it.
I know who's gonna be there.
I know the reading fucking good, God damn it.
been the port of call for Nabi
across these last couple of rounds
so you're gonna move away from these five man execs
is this why you can't break even?
dude?
and their last little desperate stab
to try and keep this series going
there's not gonna be more twists here though
dude, immediately after the tickets
we heard about the food
oh, he spammed one, he made noise
GG
Images fucking flumbled it
made noise like CB gets spammed
man GG. G2 are right there. All that's left to do is cross that finish line and lock in
the playoffs. Navi dealt a rough hand. Everything freezes. Crazy Navi's not gonna be in a playoffs
or like actually what the fuck. G2 attack. You know I guess there's always like one big
team that really fucks it up right they've just got to stick the landing they've just got to finish this off
playoffs are right there opener out of mccasey caught on the cross in
no trade yet bids gonna pick it up it comes down to a retake never stopped trying to envision it
No, they want it but that bomb goes down and now it's past that point.
G2 swung their way into the playoffs, which is nasty with resilience.
What a crazy back and forth series man.
And for the first time, since Niko and Mylesy left this squad and G2 made their way into a major playoffs.
Some players have he got a madest past time in that a little over major in the top eight.
Getting over the vitality demon snagging Atlanta still playing pretty solid most of the season did not even make him play on
The major
Is the humbling
Under immense pressure G2 do not crumble the first time since Shanghai back in 2024 that this
This organization has made it to the top 8 of a major and Janko, what a fashion to be doing it in.
This one was an absolute marathon.
I'm really impressed by the amount of footage.
I need a 3 out of 3 to win today.
I need a 3 out of 3, none of them won.
They end up losing it.
Go to Inferno.
Are they throwing the bracket right away?
The bracket is absolutely fucking cursed.
Don't look at it.
Navi, historically successful on this map.
But G2 is going to be able to make it to them.
to them despite losing both pistols when it came to the gun rounds they just got it done and
some pious incredible impact in that second half and not just that but the things that were happening
in the games the world was all wonderful yes she's on inferno the pistol rounds it just felt like
everything oh man no when it came to a mental they had to be so much better than abby here to
guys yeah we think back to inferno the moment he gets pushed to overtime and we think okay this
could be done the g2 the fact that they say right what did you say
i was so broken the tenacity to actually outlaw that's why i'm so impressive
why is this i'm feeling like a boomer right now success they thought the ship
give me the call in one i mean g2 it wasn't lights out this tournament individually
i was like fucking who changed the view on that in a way but
ah there it is there it is for the first time since shanghai
Jesus Christ!
Wait, we're all like 40 here by the way.
It is good!
It's a bit different when you're an IGL, you need to think about the whole team and about the whole picture.
So it's even more stressful, but we were prepared, we were ready, no matter what, and I think we deserve this win.
Hunter, congratulations on making the playoffs.
I just wanted to ask you, after Dust2, what was the conversation like outside with the rest of the team?
You guys had such a big lead on that map.
Yeah, I mean, we trolled so many rounds on Dust2, we lost so many bad rounds that gave them momentum,
and we were a bit down after this 1v4 and before the Philosteco.
Then we wanted to force a bit on the city side after those two rounds,
but our coach said no need to force anything guys, we played amazing,
it was just unlucky some rounds, a bit of more concentration needed,
but we played really good as a team overall, especially on the city side, we had a good plan.
And yeah, just the deal about Inferno was to play as a team like we were on those two,
and to reset as fast as possible.
We also heard your little speech after you lost that round to BIT.
How important was it for the team to reset after that early round you lost on Inferno?
To be honest, we are losing so many stupid rounds, even on practice.
You're used to it now.
Yes, we are resetting.
Blake, I don't know how it's default.
It's for us default, and we know that we need to reset.
And I said after before Mirage, we were resetting after the stupid rounds,
but let's not use any more of those stupid rounds.
So let's try to focus a bit more during the round, during the game, and yeah, I'm pretty happy that we won that,
it's an amazing team, and I think we deserve this win, even on Dust2, I think it was just our map, we just rolled it.
I have to ask about the T side on Mirage, you won A11 of the 12 rounds, does this seem to be your plan, does it kind of just...
Sorry, I don't hear a problem.
We went A on Mirage, 11 of the 12 rounds, why did you go A so much, was there a weakness you saw there or something?
because Electri-V didn't see action for the entire game,
we ended up being three kills, four deaths by round 18.
What was going on there?
Yeah, I mean, we saw weakness on A, like on prep,
and our weakness and their weakness, both on CT side.
So we were trying to hit A, they were trying to hit A,
and we were kind of ready for it.
We knew that, we were retaking mid lately,
so much on CT side, and we knew that kind of,
they were taking first step mid
and falling back to extremities, B or A.
And yeah, we understood it pretty fast,
and that's why we were kind of more on A.
And Heavy God, why is he so good?
What makes him so special?
He seems to be so consistent for you.
Yeah, I'm really happy to have that kind of a player in my team.
There is not so many players like Heavy God like Bit,
who are really amazing in those roles.
Let's call them shit roles in a lot of maps.
And he's not complaining about anything.
He's a perfect teammate.
He is doing everything for the team.
And on top of that, he's really consistent and he's killing.
Like, you can count that he will do a really good job
staying alive or kill three people when they're coming on the site. We already talked about it,
G2 last time made playoffs in Shanghai, also in Cologne it's been a little while, so now that
you guys are going to be back in the LACS, what can we expect from G2 in the playoffs?
You can expect that we'll fight until the end no matter what and that we'll give our best,
like we were doing during the stage 2 and stage 3. It will not be easy whoever comes, but yeah.
Our main goal was to secure these playoffs and now, of course, there will be pressure,
of course, in front of a lot of people, in front of the Lanxess Arena, amazing experience
for us as a team, especially for the people that are not playing too much major playoffs
and that are not playing in Lanxess Arena.
So I think overall it will be an amazing experience and I can promise that we will give our best.
Have you seen who you are playing against?
I cannot hear you.
Only you I cannot hear.
Have you seen who you are playing against?
There's the brackets
Checked it before but I'm like, it's fine
This playoff of major last event of the year
What do you think about your side of the bracket as well
You can see you and Niko going to dead
I would like one of us going into finals.
Bro, I feel bad for you.
Imagine looking at the top side of the bracket, then the better teams forward.
Do you not care who you go up against?
I mean, we don't care too much.
We would like to play a bit more.
Not that good teams and not that hard bracket, but it's fine.
It's major playoffs.
Is there anything you'd like to say to all the G2 supporters?
If you're at home in the arena as well?
arena as well. I just want to say thanks to everybody who supported us here and I cannot
wait to see your Lancest Arena. Thank you so much Hanzo, congratulations once again that
is G2. Locked and loaded the final spot in the Lancest Arena. Of course we winners do
come losers so let's get a few questions. Pick up the roster moves after this interview okay.
Rough term events here for Navi, one of the longest running teams to be at majors in the
the history of majors and now Pines himself eliminated today at the hands of G2 and Alexi
B first of all commiserations let's talk about this game overall and that last map how down
the wire was it for you?
I mean it was down to small details but I think on the start of CT side we had a lot
of energy to we felt like we were in control after winning the pistol but they just took
the momentum. We took it back towards the end, won the important T side pistol. You know,
the game was tight at some point, but I just think they played better in the end.
Mekasa had a fantastic performance there. There was a time when I called it 9-9. Emma
Buss out, you guys go up 10-9. Do you think at that point you have the game sort of in
your hands?
Yeah, I think that was the most important buy round that we had. Even that round came
really down to the wire, but I think they played it better since they were two
way after our you know moves around the map. But overall you know, which is
still in the service this time and I'm also unhappy on the way I played as well.
Well look Alexi, honestly, you had a career game in map too. Your stats were
through the roof. You played your heart out here. Can you give us any words as
to Navi ending their season right here right now.
You know, I've never had a feeling for a major
harder than this one since, you know,
we came from Atlanta, like kind of beat the team
that we really wanted to beat throughout the whole season.
We had our chances to go through the playoffs yesterday
against Falcons today against G2.
Just, you know, it wasn't meant to be.
And it sucks, it hurts.
And you've been in this situation before, Alexey.
Is there anything you want to say, man,
before we get you out of here?
Watch the play counter strike a lot,
a whole lot since 2019 up till now.
So I guess it's on you, man, for sure.
Yeah, I mean, it's very hard to put anything into words now.
I'm so disappointed.
It's hard to say anything productive,
but I'm glad that we had a lot of,
I had a lot of support from the Finnish guys.
I think there was a lot of people
outside of the Counter-Strike community, like building a pipe for this tournament.
And apart from the Finnish front, we had a lot of great Ukrainian fans here and fans from around the world.
I knew it meant a lot for me, Hamakaze, Bit and Igor, and I'm just sad I couldn't get us over the Finnish line today.
Thank you so much for your time, Alexi, in commiseration.
Thank you.
I cannot overstate enough how much of a gut-wrenching moment this must be for Alexei and the entirety of Navi, right?
I mean, props to Alexei for giving us words here. He doesn't have to do that. He's not forced to.
And this is a moment which you're going to be looking at if you're Alexei and thinking,
damn, where did it go wrong? We had the opportunities to close this one out in that second map.
Yeah, it's just such a huge disappointment, right?
Considering they came in fresh off of that win at Atlanta, beating Vitality,
They struggle to find form for a long time.
Oh, man.
Guys, this shit's cooked.
This shit's cooked.
Look at this, man.
Look at this fucking bracket, man.
Damn it, bro.
Fuck.
That's my official reaction to this, Majors.
Fuck.
Shit.
How, dude?
How did it go so well, dude?
How did it go so well?
I feel like we've had such a back and forth.
Fucking like stay out my god
Like I feel it feels wrong because I look at these teams and
I absolutely think 9z Aurora bet boom like I mean obviously fury, but you know 9z Aurora bet boom I
Feel like they deserve to be in playoffs, but at the same time not all on the same side man
What the fuck what the shit?
Like you all absolutely deserve it. Welcome to the playoffs great job. You really surprised the fuck out of me like
It's been a pleasure watching you play but dude. This is some ass
Cuz that like dude, uh
You know what's kind of worse too is like let's just say they play really good
If any of them play good and then don't beat whoever comes out of the top bracket
No one gives a fuck right there's just the whole thing is just like what a shit major
It may maybe that's a bit extreme, but you know what I mean you you know what I mean
That could be like that's like kind of extreme I would be but you go I'm saying
Let me see if I can do the pickings in game really quick
Do they have it or no
Not yet bitch I might have to do this offline then
I promise Dinko and Moses would do the pot after the games and then guys don't look at
my guys thank God my face is right there and nobody look at the left hand side
Who put these two at 3-0? What a fucking idiot, bro. Like, what a fucking idiot. I lost four
points because of the 3-0. And then, foot-mongles-navy ass! Who said they were going through? What was
I think it what a fucking idiot. All right. Sorry. We got to save that for the pickups
We got to save that for the video so I could farm some views
That's that's on hold that's on hold that's on hold
Jesus Christ. I I think the mode like I've gotten so fucked to this major. Holy shit
All right
Well, let's react to some roster moves then yeah, and then I'll go shower so I'm not discussing for the podcast
And I broke out at 33 because fucking poor sleep schedule man. What am I doing?
All right, uh
We'll wait till it's in game
2 out of 5? I think so, yeah. Yeah, like really bad. I lost 4 points because of my 3-0 picks.
I lost 4 points because she's f**k. F**k. Alright. Holy s**t dude. Yeah, Austin, but you're
ass so like you're fine nobody expected your pics to be good Austin sorry sorry Austin I just I'm
lashing out the nights lost last night my pickings are bad I'm breaking out of my face I'm 33 okay
and I'm just let me be and I have a voice of Kermit the frog let me just lash out
out
of
the
I thought you're older than 33 is it because my mustache right now looks like you could eat the meal before I can get to it
Like whiskers are no dude. All right, whatever
Subscribe to the flanclips and highlights channel so Gatler can continue to be fed and eat great. All right. He is literally eaten rib-eyes
Every day right now. He's thriving. We got to keep him well fed dude
He's got accustomed to the lifestyle chat.
Make sure you subscribe and watch these videos,
give him a like.
Otherwise, Gatler cannot maintain that lifestyle.
It's going to, lifestyle creeps going to catch them.
All right.
Legacy to Ben Shnissom, target in San Diego's replacement.
So he stepped down from legacy starting lineup
according to Duster Brazil.
News came out the day after the Brazilian team
was eliminated and went 1-3.
Thus, the result adds that Insani is legacy's main target to fill the vacancy on the roster,
though be a big task to convince MIVR to let go of the most prized asset.
This gives MIVR's hierarchy another headache to deal with, with Klim, loan deal expiring,
and future remains unknown.
Perfect.
Nism, I think he benched himself if I remember right.
Oh, I can't, you know, any translators?
Any trans, yeah, I don't know the fuck's going on there.
Hey, any translators, dude, I don't know.
Yeah, he did, okay, okay, he did.
Yeah, so let's just be real here.
I think we all kind of knew Nism
was going to be the one on the chopping block.
That's probably why he benched himself.
He had a horrendous major.
I don't even know.
Let me see if I can.
I mean, he had like a really fucking bad major.
Hold on.
Let me see if I can pull this shit up for you guys.
It's not great.
It's not great, but I just like when somebody benches themselves,
like I just kind of it's not to give this guy
All hard time but context unfortunately does matter
Yeah, this is what happened so that's just like you know, that's
That's bad man, that's I'm not like
You don't need to be an expert right now to know like that's just
No chat. This is not the time to type six seven
this guy feels really bad about what happened at the major and he benched himself.
All right. Yeah, I feel bad, but that that's so that's what led to this.
I mean, I think he was struggling a bit with this team beforehand.
I mean, just being just being real like Lotto and DeMau look really good.
They've looked very consistent art seems to have unlocked the team as a whole.
sadzen, not really the most consistent opera, but
this isn't just like, you know, a player suffering from bad
roles. He really just is struggling individually. And
there's really not a better way to put it.
This one's name backwards is missing. All right, guys.
Bro, he just, he just like have have a little bit of be a
little nice. All right. All right. All right. So we all
Crazy you guys are this quick out of the server, but you guys giving the server you can't do shit
All right
But let's talk about who they're targeting and why this is really fun, right like
And this is who they're trying to get so if you guys look at
Why this is a big deal
Uh, this is why I know, listen, stats are stats, but I think sometimes they do help tell a story.
Um, they do sometimes help give an understanding of what's going on and why it's a big deal.
Uh, this could be huge for them, man.
Like they legacy has been a little up and down.
They really beat Falcons and a best of five for CAC with their old roster.
They had a very bad major.
There are six in the world.
They will probably drop, but they're still going to be in top 12.
This is the time like.
Legacy is in order if they can swing it.
If they can swing it to the point where they get insanity,
they can like actually establish themselves as not just like.
like a good Brazilian team, they go, they start becoming the Brazilian team
falling on the way out, dude.
Like these are all Brazilians are going to have Demau and Lotto and Insanity together.
That is a bro.
That is a crazy trio.
That is a fucking crazy trio.
If the the downside is, though, is like, man, fucking these Brazilian biots are just notoriously
Insane and MIBR that's like and sanny is their crown jewel like he's the only
Without
Trying to really shit on the rest of that roster. It's the it's insane in friends over there
And they had an operator on loan
from G2
So if they lose in sanny and they don't get a fuck ton of money for it it just kind of is so I don't know we'll see
this this move would be incredible like absolutely incredible I hope legacy can
pull it off man because with fallen on the way out and like you know people
talking about maybe a kinder and Maladoy don't stay whatever you it'd be
really cool to see just like another flagship Brazilian team and I'm a big
fan of like, dude, it's nice to have a full Brazilian team. Like,
that's cool as fuck, you know what I mean? And they kind of
represent the like Lotto, DeMau, and standing around 2223.
That's like the next step for Brazil, you know?
Does it make sense role wise?
I've seen Lotto and DeMau play a lot of different positions at
times because I've played, I've literally played against them. So right now, it would, there
would be adjustments. But it's fucking worth it. Like, it's, it's not even like it doesn't
matter. Like some of these moves, normally I'm like, Oh, well, you got to don't care.
Do not care. If you can get that trio together, you need like do it, just fucking do it and
figured out like there's um the there's just levels to this and if you're able to and if
MIBR is willing to play ball and negotiating for Insanity this would be monstrous man.
So the answer is no currently the way they play it's not really one to one but I have played
I've seen them on a lot of play a lot of different positions and wear a lot of different hats at times in their career.
They're more experienced than you think.
So yeah, no, this would be sick.
The other downside to this, though, that this is pure narcissism here.
This fucking sucks for me, Chet.
Because MIBR is very likely to get an invite to my event.
So, that fucking blows, so like that means instead of having Insanity at my land event,
I'm not gonna have him.
And that fucking sucks.
That would have been so cool, man.
So, full make it about me route, damn it.
Fuck.
but if we get snow from pain that'd be pretty fucking sick that'd be pretty
sick uh dude yeah but anyway uh subscribe to the
flum clips and highlights channel continue to make sure Gatler eats his
primary bias he'll be thrilled let me know in the comments below what you
think about the roster you think it's too much or too little too much change or
like an overreaction or well I guess I some bench themselves it's not a
of reaction, but you think they can make it work. I def I don't know how anybody can say it's not worth it.
I don't know how anybody can say it's not worth making the move for like holy shit.
All right, we'll leave it there. That's really I don't I don't really feel like talking about
rugga guys and I'll be real like I could probably get views talking about BC game but
I don't remember if it was yanko prof or whoever. I'm just kind of tired of talking about BC game.
I'll talk about them more when they actually like put together a roster that looks like it's legit
Right now I don't
All right, oh shit
But thanks for the 20 month reset, I think we're good then yeah
