coolio had finally seen enough during the timeout:
“Can we just play f***ing passive, trust our setup for once and stop pushing and peeking? We’re losing every round because of it.”
Sometimes the hardest strat in CS is literally just NOT doing anything.
jL pulls off a huge 3K and Vitality’s comms immediately explode.
“YOU’RE F**KING GREAT BRO”
That’s the kind of round that makes the whole team wake up instantly.
zonic says kyousuke has changed a lot over the past year.
“A year ago he had problems outside the server and was often late. Since then, he’s improved a lot and started behaving much better.”
zonic says managing him sometimes means being the “strict father,” while other times he needs to support, praise and encourage him.
Looks like the talent was never the issue. The maturity just needed time.
karrigan believes the arena is where his experience can really help Falcons.
He says the whole team loves playing under pressure and that preparing them for those stage games is probably part of the reason Falcons signed him.
Then he casually added:
“I can’t remember the last time I won a group stage, so I might be the problem.” 😭
karrigan says Falcons are still early in their development with him as IGL.
He joined the team and only had around 60 days before the player break, which made building consistency harder.
Their main problem right now is the “B game.” On a bad day, they’re still not good enough to consistently beat top teams.
According to karrigan, that’s what has to change if Falcons want to become the best team in the world.
HeavyGod’s picks for NiKo vs XANTARES:
Shooting: NiKo
Movement: NiKo
Utility: NiKo
Calls: NiKo
Clutches: NiKo
Game sense: NiKo
Aura: NiKo
AZR: s1mple
NiKo takes every category over XANTARES, while s1mple somehow sneaks into the comparison too 😭
Jimpphat believes this Aurora lineup has the potential to become a real title contender.
“We can definitely become one of the teams fighting for trophies at some point, but of course we need time.”
He says the individual talent is already there, but Aurora are still a very young team and need to fix their mistakes and become more consistent.
The ceiling is clearly high, they just need time to put everything together.
jL could actually get his own sticker at the PGL Major Singapore instead of apEX.
For that to happen, jL needs to play 5 matches with Vitality at PGL Bucharest before the Major invites are handed out.
Imagine jL joining Vitality and immediately sneaking his way onto a Major sticker capsule 😭
Sycrone literally called karrigan’s next move before the round even started.
“Nothing is working for them, so this is the moment karrigan will try to force it.”
And that’s exactly what FaZe did.
When you’ve played against someone this many times, you start reading the game like a book.
torzsi with some elite-level wisdom after losing the first map:
“If you lose the first map, you still need to win two. Nothing has changed.”
Can’t argue with the math tbh 😭
xertioN believes MOUZ can take down Falcons today.
“I believe we can beat Falcons.”
MOUZ are coming in with a lot of confidence after winning BLAST, while Falcons are still one of the most dangerous teams in the world.
This should be a proper test for both sides.
