leakers are a fucking plague. imagine the vibes in vp and lulquid

>>1828539
I'm sorry but kyousuke will win it with 1.82 overall rating

>>1828540
it's actually possible because with a new igl, a new coach, and a new awper, they'll probably be very unpredictable

>>1828551
Overdrive is straight up lying about vp

>Counter-Strike 2 General
this shit again
I hope you choke on your dad's dick next time

>>1828543
Is that a link in the op??? I am literally going insane!

>don't like a team

kinda based, ngl

>>1828573
More so getting them ridiculed from outside, they all know fl1t or fame don't want to leave and can confirm it with each other in seconds

>>1828576
He is though. There are no more roster changes on VP and Overdrive has a long history of making shit up.

>>1828582
He didn't lie though.

>>1828584
He technically didn't because how vague he phrases all of his "leaks". But him tweeting 2 players want out and not even a day later VP confirms the roster does look like he's just lying. Also don't forget this dude is paid by Spirit so anything that he says about the internals of their competitors is inherently untrustworthy.

Watch, don't worry it's not all about vitality https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S9RlDmK0KUU

>>1828586
You and uberdriver hating electronic won't make his teammates do too, they're so back now that b0tmus is out

dogfecto won't save vp lol

>>1828593
i've been saying +hallzerk but it makes too much sense and would actually be a good roster move so they'd never do it

>>1828555
That was more about mongolz misplaying than zywoo doing anything crazy, if they double swing at the same time instead of being desynced by 1.5 seconds they win the round and at the very least start out 3-0 and have a good chance for much more

>>1828598
I've been saying they get hades on for 4 months or however long it takes for s1mples contract to run out and then get him in.

>>1828602
we can stop pretending that the s0mple comeback is real now

>>1828606
It's real though. I saw it with my own eyes.

>>1828609
he's beaten one good opponent in a bo3 and then proceeded to shart himself on stage (device style) against the very same opponent

>>1828614
awful post
vp has barely been in top 10 so most of their games vs top 10 are filtered out

>>1828616
guess who's who

>>1828619
dont care
you still didnt know how the filters work

>>1828624
I'm a different guy, I know exactly how they work
that's set to 2025, all matches, why don't you explain why you think that's disqualifying

>awful post
>vp has barely been in top 10 so most of their games vs top 10 are filtered out

>you still didnt know how the filters work

>>1828624
you're as retarded as he is for replying to this stupid shit

>>1828628
honestly surprising electronic is above all those other players
and snax is a retard which forces others to drop ak to him while his star players only have deagle

>>1828600

>anon discovers that 99.99% of the clutches happen because of mistakes.
and it wasn't 1.5 seconds, zywoo showed up and got the job done.

>>1828566
that's rather unkind

>>1828632
I'm not doing big red youtube arrows and shit
via hltv rating, electronic has been functionally identical to snax this year but with more dropoff vs top teams. if you think the only problem with that other post is that the matches aren't being filtered right, they have been with my post and elec even has a bigger sample size across the board

>>1828641
snax literally does that

Snax: Unemployed
electroNic: Employed

>>1828628
Damn, igl version of electronic is better than wicadia I guess, but seriously, every igl was hovering around that rating which can even be seen in your pic, why do you hate the guy?

>t’s probable that we go in, maybe in 2026 or 2027. But if we do, it will be with a true north American ambition

So what do we think the team can look like?
For me this is my dream NACS kino team

Stanislaw
JBa
Lake
NAF
an EU AWP

but at this moment it probably will be something around buying out the Wildcard core, so

Stanislaw
JBa
Peeping
phzy
susp

literally no one cares about NA

>>1828904
lake is taken
t. knower

>>1828906
why you passive aggressively seething like a bitch

everyone with fun, original or interesting takes clearly left this general a couple of threads ago
I'll be in EU premier if you need me

>>1828907
Sentinels can throw cash, they can buy out Lake

Lake and JBa on the same team would be a storyline for the ages. The two spearheading powering the revival of NACS join hands to form the best NACS team after the VALORANT exodus. would be kino asf

didn't ask

>>1828916
clueless ass nigga

>>1828918
okay qrd, what am i missing? you mean to say Lake is going to another team? say sike rn

>>1828907
yeah and she cute
anyway he might go to sen if they buy him out

>>1828911
Because i was born this way baby.

>>1828786
Well I remember a zywoo clutch, the one that mentally broke the mongolz

>>1828914
omg so hecking bay-zed

>>1828815
it's pretty obvious that zywoo is the goat, why? because degenerates like you are obsessed with contrarianism and if you are against zywoo it's the proof that you consider zywoo to be the goat.

Zywoo won. The Church of Zywoo won, his followers won.

I did warn you degenerates here a few months ago about submitting to the trinity of counterstrike: the Brain, the Aim, the Game. The eternal shining star, ZywOo.

if zywoo was the goat, his fanboys wouldn't need to argue that he's better than simple

>>1828933
this better be ai cause no one's reading that shit

>>1828848
>sell kyousuke
>save money on the snacks
how massive are wages' donk going to be holy shit?

>>1828874
that's called gravity.

>>1828933
never forget that ZywOo in his worst year had the same rating as m0NESY in his best year
GOAT for a reason

>>1828943
>never forget
>zywoo
is this a self-aware joke

Furiabroskiis....HOLY CRAPPERINOOOOOOO SUPERTEAM INBOUND

>>1828946
I am not scared about ZywOo's legacy fading away because he lives rent free in the heads of people like you.

zywoo needs a social media team to try and convince you he is the GOAT. s1mple doesn't need to convince anyone - when he returned, everyone recognised him.

>>1828958

you're going to be running damage control for the rest of ZywOo's career, and even then people will still think of s1mple first. enjoy.

>>1828958
>zywoo needs a social media team to try and convince you he is the GOAT
time is working in ZywOo's favor, he surpassed s1mple by numbers, he just needs to keep playing well and winning with Vitality, which is exactly what he is doing

the irony of zywoo and djokovic both arriving after the goats and having less competition, making them look better than they are lol cmtsu

the irony of s1mple and federer both arriving before the goats and having less competition, making them look better than they are lol cmtsu

you gotta be polite to these frogs, they live in a bubble and genuinely believe if zywoo wins another title or two people will really start caring and noticing, they think you can get enough gold stars and become valedictorian
retired s1mple gets more buzz than zywoo in every measured country except france and (recently) mongolia. being the #1 player in the world, having a dominant era, it doesn't move the needle at all, and they just don't understand why

>>1829000
>complains about "muh numbers"
>unironically pulls out google trends stats
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
it would be funny if it weren't sad at this point, s1mple copers on their last legs

2 majors > 1 major

1 Major > 2 fluke ccts

>>1829001
>>1829006
I'm not even a s1mple fan, it's just obvious where community sentiment lies
if a retired player getting drunk in barcelona and rapping about wanting to fak poosey gets more buzz than the best bo3 streak in history, you have a problem

>>1829009
>gets more buzz than the best bo3 streak in history
maybe if you're a slavic retard who never escapes his telegram bubble that is true lol

These zywhores are clearly not going BAECELONA WAY...BAKA...

>>1829010
look at the map
every country on earth besides france and mongolia, retired alcoholic not playing at all vs #1 star player on #1 team mid-era on historic run
you're not even interested in trying to offer a justification, you just want it to not be true

>>1829015
I am not looking at fucking google trends, retard, you're genuinely mentally ill if you hold it in any regard and want to argue that s0mple was more discussed than zywoo throughout 2025

>>1828992
>>1828996
There is no equivalent to any of the big 3 in cs yet, they would need 10 majors to be equal to Federer, 11 for Nadal and 12 for Djokovic. At best zywoo is like Murray, Wawrinka or some guy nobody cares about that played in the 80s or 90s.

>>1828761
Lol some retard anon (>>1818427 >>1818436) was claiming that the stream had delay so s0mple did talk but we couldn't tell. S0mple fans continue to be insanely retarded AND delusional. The fuck is "push mid" did he mean the guy was pushing them close and it was just a communication problem?

>>1828816
Don't compare out retard GOAT GODKY to the drug addicted alcoholic p0mple.

>>1828858
Not sure I want Godky to continue playing with Judas Clan.

>>1829016
what accounts for the difference? why can you see peaks for zywoo in may 2023 for paris, every december/january for hltv #1/2, and again this year when they went on their run into the major if it's just random? why is france the most lopsidedly interested in zywoo?
you can't just dismiss it out of hand, their names are completely unique as search terms

facts: if s1mple continued being #7 player in the world in a #10 team in the world (the likely trajectory given his miserable 2023), people would talk about him about as much as they talked about f0rest at the end of his career
him coming back from his hiatus is the driving force behind the "what-ifs" and old narratives getting resurrected
the time will be more favorable to zywoo once s1mple finally washes out of the picture, like it happened with the greats of cs 1.6. the feelings will quiet down, the highlight reels will look ridiculous, and more and more unbiased people will engage in this conversation.

>>1829021
ash doesn't coach faze, anon...

>>1828999
>having less competition
retard lmao

>>1829026
There are already 0 highlight reels, how much longer will the retards itt keep praising this fraud for?

you can declare yourself a country but it doesn't mean anything

Do you guys play a lot of DM? I'm not really into gaming outside of CS so often when I'm bored but don't feel like going all out I just play some DM while listening to music. I find it therapeutic.
To make it worthwhile I've made it my mission to grind out my stattrak to 100k. I'm at 65k now.

>>1829031
eh, it kinda sucks since so many bots

for sure

>>1829031
ugly ahh skin

>>1828958
I knew he was the goat when the pundits were all acting nervous when trying to downplay zywoo.

>>1829031
yeah back when i was playing cs regularly, would just play dm with awp and deagle listening to music

>>1829009
yeah s1mple is more popular than any other player, so what? it's a sports discussion not an election. popularity is the only thing s1mple has left over Zywoo. Ronaldo is also more popular and marketable than Messi and earned more money through sponsorships and shit because Messi is a fucking autist who can't even speak English, but if you tried to pull that as an argument in a football discussion you would get laughed at.

>>1828967
>top part is all gum just like real goats

GOAT

>>1829037
It was really good in CSGO and I was already at like 30k when CS2 launched
I got it because of some NiKo compilation which got me into CS in the first place

>>1829035
about 3-4 years after his retirement or descend into tier3
remember JW? yeah he turned 30 recently

>>1829048
>remember JW?
no

is Apex the only player to win 3 majors with 3 different cores?

>>1829053
>Apex
drugpex

>>1829036
zywoo/s1mple is a lot closer to Bird/Johnson than it is to Lebron/Jordan

>>1829053
Yeah, pretty nice achievement, especially because 2 were as IGL

>>1829053
goat igl

>>1829057
this but unironically

>>1829057
>goat igl

>>1829043
>it's a sports discussion not an election
and people are famously level-headed and rational about sports. it's not an election, but it is partially a popularity contest where people give more or less weight to the side they favor
mj didn't have the most individual accolades (mvps~=#1s), the records for points or assists or steals or rebounds, the most rings (barely half of bill russell's), the longevity, but he brought unprecedented attention to the game and had a period of such exciting and complete dominance that he's still culturally relevant, and he's the goat. people tried to argue kobe was the goat basically just off popularity and style of play decoupled from results and individual awards for years
if you can't win over the crowd, if you can't make them care about you and your sport, it's a problem

>>1829059
still karrigan imo even if I like apex, he's done it in so many different teams, won more trophies as an igl, and he beat apex two times in the two majors prior to the last one.

>>1829069
lol
lmao even

>>1829069
karrigan is a ropz merchant lol
he'd be jobless and retired without the Estonian BVLL
apex > gla1ve >>> karriedb0t

>>1829055
oh fugg did s1mple throw his back out building barcelona way?

>>1829072
this poor bastard, from aura farmer to insecure exposed baldie, I'll always remember that scene at the major when he as asked to remove his beanie. oof.

>>1829077
real tierlist right here
fourth is aleksib0b

>>1829077
as opposed to apex, who's not known for his reliance on french snipers of any kind

>>1829082

>>1829105
>why

>1829157
0/8

>>1829163
Nigga get real - think about where vitality would be today without zywoo and think about where faze would've been without ropz or astralis without device. The impact of the former is far, far greater than the latter 2.

>>1829167
Apex clears both

>>1829177
>Be Apex
>Not actually the apex
many such cases

>>1828761
This hurts to watch, I can't watch my nigga whiff like that with comms.

>>1829167
Now think when karrigan's career ends if he never plays with NiKo or ropz after getting kicked from Astralis for being a serial choker

>>1829167
This is an underrated point about Zywoo's career people don't often mention.
He took an org that entered pro CS in an evolved state and a very competitive era and made them one of the most successful in history, that's fucking impressive.
Of course the other guys and staff deserve credit too, but 80% of it is Zywoo, carrying 1v9 for years and slowly attracting good players to the team.

>>1829192
Exactly lol. Vitality right now is extremely strong because all 5 players are not only carrying their own weight, they're carrying each other as well. But historically this wasn't the case. Zywoo had to carry them for years before they could be a viable top 5 team. This is akin to investing a in a business that has only losses for years and it finally starts turning a profit.

On a related note, why did Zywoo join Vitality? Why not any of the other French teams at the time? G2, Envy, LDLC, 3DMAX etc.

Godpex was a major champion before he moulded zywho into a good player

>>1829197
gla1ve made good players great
great players making apex good

thats all the difference, respectfully

Godpex just won another major
Where is gla0ve now?

Glaive was a revolutionary, meta-changing, era defining igl. Fuck has gaypex done? If I were gaypex I'd give Zywoo sloppy top every hour for saving my career.

back from my premier games... what a fucking shit show
anyway....
this guy is literally gonna have to be the sole hypeman for falcons whenever they fumble
how tf is teses gonna keep the mood up when kyxsan shuts down, niko slams desks, monesy starts crying, and kyosuki shoots up krokodil?

Gla0ve be like, yo device hold this angel against #30 ranked Ence while apexGOD is gapping prime fucking Donk. There are levels to this game.

>>1829204
he won't because he knows he has 6 months to play in this team before failc0ns management replace him, so why even bother
look at degster, where did he end up after gifting ch0k0 a tournament win? yeah right

>>1829210
Who're they gonna replace teses and kyxsan with?

>>1829212

>>1829212

>>1829196
>This is akin to investing a in a business that has only losses for years and it finally starts turning a profit.
Yeah, though looking at it financially i think Vitality were doing good even before they started winning events with the Danes and Spinx, i don't think they were ever out of top 15 since the team was formed (apart from the initial few months of grinding to get there), and they never missed a single Major. All that with little investments, like they bought Alex, old shox and 3 rookies as signings.
There aren't many teams who were part of all Majors since 2019, i think it's only Navi, Faze and Furia.

>>1828761
he lireally said "push mid" you moron.

KWAB KWAB KWAB

>>1829230
alright man no one is going to understand shit from a whimpy push mid call, retard should've screamed HE'S PUSHING THROUGH SMOKE

>>1829230
and he never said a word that he's going through the smoke for a vulnerable rain
kek you and your shitter got exposed

>>1829196
>On a related note, why did Zywoo join Vitality? Why not any of the other French teams at the time? G2, Envy, LDLC, 3DMAX etc.
Forgot to reply to this part, I think it's just because they got to him first. I remember an old interview where someone (shox or some other G2 member) was asked whether the rumor was true or not, that G2 didn't sign ZywOo because shox thought he was suspicious and possibly a cheater. He said that Vitality was already in deep talks with ZywOo when all that was happening, so they probably didn't have a chance anyway.

>>1829233
he spoke, he gave info, not complete info but he gave info, rain was blind anyway

is we getting a new premier season

>>1829239
>he gave info
about the same quality as "they're in middle somewhere" I guess
rain was blind because he didn't expect for the guy to push, if s0mple gave proper info rain wouldn't eat a direct flash and would likely kill

>>1829240
ask reddit

>>1828761
at least he said "my bad" at the end :(

>>1829239
have you ever seen a s1mple fan listen through and post zywoo voice comms just to push an agenda
it's not worth it, they're insane

>>1829255
>have an argument that s0mpel didn't give info
>resolve it with 3 seconds of an official comms video
you're a moron, what agenda?

>>1829255
I remember i once heard a Zywoo miscomm on nuke, he called a guy dark but he was rafters or something
They still won the round but I was shocked, I couldn't believe my gamesense goat is WASHED

>>1829229
Yeah but I didn't mean that literally I was just giving an analogy. You are right about the finances though, Vitality is giving Mouz a run for its money in terms of business efficiency.

>>1829235
Lol imagine n0k0 and zywoo on the same team. The KWAB levels are off the charts.

>>1829266
they make most of their money through results, they need to make an academy to farm and sell shitters

>>1829267
>Lol imagine n0k0 and zywoo on the same team. The KWAB levels are off the charts.
Why? I think they would be a great duo
And if there's one player that would never tilt Niko by doing spur of the moment shit and dumb decisions it's Zywoo

>>1829280
niko is cursed man even a generational talent like zywoo couldn't carry him to a major win

>>1829267
zywoo would have held that banana like a good boy

>>1829283
>Niko switches to IGLing and leaves Falcons for Vitality after apEX retires to test how far the curse can go
we will be there

from the taz interview
>About m0NESY when NiKo left:


>When NiKo left, I felt like Ilya didn't really want to be in the team anymore. I think he tried, but it just wasn't the same. It's hard to blame him - when you lose players who inspire you, it changes everything.

>I've always said that NiKo is difficult to communicate with (in the way that he doesnt agree with everything ofc), and it was hard to align things with him sometimes - but I actually appreciated that. We're both from the old school, and having different opinions was part of finding the right direction. I think he helped me a lot, and I helped him too - even at that stage in his career. He always wanted the best for the team, and he made a real effort to understand the plan and help develop it. There are very few players like him.

>There's this opinion that NiKo is an "IGL killer," but it's just that he has a lot of confidence - he wants to dominate. You have to know how to use a person like that the right way. When NiKo truly trusts the IGL, the sky is the limit. You can achieve a lot with him when he's fully behind you.

>>1829318
>when you lose players who get inside you, it changes everything.

>>1829318

>>1829318

>>1829396
by the way
people don't know
the joke is
spoilers
the reason why people consider s1mple to be the goat is also the reason why he choked so often, he wants to the winning factor, going for flashy risky plays, his talent allowed him to get away with it most of the time but you gotta respect the system, the teamplay if you want to win.

>>1829396
it's pretty funny that you guys are just reflexively regurgitating the arguments that keep you up at night
hmm, I wonder why you spent a third of your esl english post breaking down why this major run (#1 beating #2-6) was actually unimpressive and shameful. an impenetrable mystery

yea

>>1829383
How far could this team go in a major?

>>1829441
was this shit an actual pro team?

>>1829421
that team actually was much better than 2021 Vitality. Kyojin is probably the worst player who played in tier 1, at least in the post covid era of CS.

>>1829427
it was kinda retarded but a lot of fun, especially when there wasn't shit going on because of covid
threads would be up for like a month or two, during something like epl they'd run counter strike matches 24/7 because of the split regions and the casters would just fuck around to entertain themselves, all the playercams were 10fps webcams of them in their mom's basement, random teams would pop off for a bit, like xantares-big would win 3 big events out of nowhere and become #1 for a few weeks

>wasn't the rumor that he cheated in tryouts, then they picked him up and he was ass
i think he had a VAC ban and they signed him just after Valve made the decision to clear people with 5+ years old VAC bans from playing in Majors, guys like Jamppi (RIP)
but he was basically the French d0cc, never played serious CS anywhere except pugs

>>1829444
Koosta, Deadfox and Denis come to mind as worse but they were all precovid.

>>1829444
>>1829491
gotta be furia junior
he was putting up kyojin statlines as their awp

>>1829496
there was some additional controversy regarding Kyojin except the confirmed VAC ban, there was a clip of him triggerbotting on LAN and according to French people he had 2-3 VAC'd alts that Valve didn't even consider, i guess it wasn't officially linked to him so they couldn't prove it

i remember this news caused a big uproar among the French, they were shocked that a legend like RpK was replaced with that cheater bot. and later, long after Kyojin was kicked, i remember a HLTV post saying there was an interview with some of the higher up from Vitality (possibly NEO), who said signing him was the biggest mistake ever made by the org and that he wasn't a clean player.

>>1829510
yeah at the time some french dude on hltv translated some leak and said it was common knowledge in the top french scene at the time, hoped someone else knew the details because it was like 5 years ago

That's bad though. Thorin makes every desk he's on 100x better. Just compare how entertaining it was back when he was still working events to how it is now.

what the fuck? it's close to cologne so there's not much travel.

>>1829938
you people are naive if you expected the top teams to attend this event
it's still a good tier 2 event with a bunch of teams, it looks like Major stage 2

>>1829932
no they aren't

>>1829941
Betboom Dachas still had like 4 top 10 teams and this is basically same thing.

it's good warmup and high prizes

>>1829947
i am surprised by Aurora not attending, they bootcamped in Serbia before the Major and they are close, it makes more sense for Mongolz to skip who are far away now

I seriously doubt the big NA names would jump the ship if they were able to play in EU
Some shitters in t2 sure, but tarik and TenZ would stay 100%

>goes on the most dominating run in the history of cs
>semi-retires after 3rd major
>some na team gets uppity and steals your no.1 spot
>comes back for the major just to shit all over them
>covid kills both teams with the online era

>>1830314
>it's not conspiracy [sic]

Major doesnt matter what matters is this made up number :)

>>1830323

>>1830326
goofy ahh unc

zywoo is the new device. not the best player but has the best team.

>>1830332
trvke

>>1830316
that's 1 map
supposedly what rating 3.0's taking into account is this new round swing thing, and donk's like 50% higher over the course of a tournament

>>1830328
Does he have a jewish scripture on his chain LoL

the best team consisting of godpex and mezz0 wow what players

>>1830336

TLDR for non german speaker: there has been cheating problems forever and it is POSSIBLE to cheat on certain LAN events, they even managed to do it practically.

not enough recources and time to really combat cheaters on LAN.

one professional or semi professional player got caught because the coder made a mistake

The cheat coder kinda hints that there are cheating professionals (He does NOT say it but if you read between the lines, it sounds like it IMO!)

i think that was most of the important points, i watched that video days ago so my memory is kinda blurry.

>>1830340
germans have always been the biggest cheaters

>>1830340
Sorry, but now watching some n*zi fucks

>>1830340
>it is POSSIBLE to cheat on certain LAN events
then why is BIG so bad on lan?

how big would the meltdown be if donk got randomly vac banned live on major stage?

how big would the meltdown be if zywhore got randomly vac banned live on major stage?

>>1830326
zywoo sissies literally CANNOT take criticism or truth lol

its not like s1mple would get vac'd with those stats

Donkcels are so revved up it's super funny.

>>1830348
then they always bring up simple

>1830351
still mad lol?

>>1830347
>ask a theoretical question about the guy with the impossibly high stats
>get instant non-quote seethe
lol okay

>>1830346
>>1830347
>>1830349
>>1830350
can you fags stop passive aggressively pretending you're too cool for school while snidely bitching about pimply video game players' statlines
this shit is intolerable, be a normal human being

Yeah, he's pissed!

>>1830359
i would be too, my goat was primed to be THEE guy
then some fucking spaghetti armed siberian kid came and stole the spotlight in his first fucking year

I've reached champ 3 in rocket league and used to follow esports back in the day. I would still say CS has a higher skill ceiling. The roadmap to reach SSL is pretty straightforward compared to reaching level 10 on faceit. And then the grind only worsens in FPL - tier 3 - CCT - tier 1. Obviously the rocket league skill ceiling has skyrocketed in the last 5 years but it's still not higher than CS. Very few if any esports have a higher skill ceiling.

please join my esea team

>just said that zywhores are pathetic
>wall of text appear on my screen
Pathetic.

desu many games technically have higher skill ceiling than cs but the competition in cs is still harder because more are playing the game

>>1830366
starcraft has the highest ceiling desu

>>1830367
Nah highest is Clash Royale

>>1829906
It's insane that the levels of matchfixing going on right now in T2 CS would've made ibp look like child's play yet valveggers don't take any action against them. It's become an open secret that gambling is the lifeblood of modern cs.

>>1829929
>>1829934
>>1829938
I actually like this. Solid T1.5 event with no clear favorites. Matches should be interesting.

>>1829952
It's a new lineup, they have to make the plunge somewhere. It would've been better to make the big mistakes in this tournament and amended them for Cologne rather than making the big mistakes at Cologne. But Failcl0wns management is probably too short sighted and egoistic to consider that.

>>1829963
Every game should have solo only queue. Solo only queue would've saved Apex (the game, not the fraud igl).

>>1830377
it's almost surely because of deals with esl or blast

>>1830377
>It would've been better to make the big mistakes in this tournament and amended them for Cologne rather than making the big mistakes at Cologne
is what a well functioning org would think

>>1829950
more days of vacation
and I reckon the big boys decided not to come because other big boys don't want to come either
I am more surprised by Liquid deciding to skip, the hubris on this dog org are off the charts, they're down to #17 in VRS and will further decline in ranks
one bad match in riyadh quals and they're over

>>1830386
>more days of vacation
nah, then they might as well skip cologne too.

Damn I'm going to miss fat nigga Magixx he had so much fuarking aura + he was the humblegod. Just can't hate him knowomsayin?

>>1830387
did you really compare a spiritual successor of botboom dacha to THE tournament of the year?

>>1830389
who cares

>>1830347
>this is zygoat doubters's last line of defence

>>1830386
yup
everyone not in top10 should seriously take all "s- and a-tier" events they can
I don't imagine it takes many misses for a top25 to overtake you if you sit on your ass

>>1830392
scroll up

>>1830311
Who is this intelligent looking woman?

>>1830252
can't wait to see him choke with ch0k0

The Most Majestic Man 2025 will farm virtus.poo, pain, pooria, made in bathroom, pooroic, tier3max, loserlegion, chinks, grim (the player), bug, amouranth's pet project, the only team that failed at becoming international and botboom
