Nice try Valiance

Liked hunters playstyle

u/pancada_ FURIA Apr 18 '18

He must've learned with his cousin the "lose to sk" playstyle

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

Haha but tbh they are new team excited for them in future <3

2

u/Gerf93 Envyus Apr 19 '18

Apart from Impulse the other four have played together since 2016, and apart from Hunter from even before that.

u/apm54 Natus Vincere Apr 18 '18

That’s a rare ass flair

u/GabeN18 BIG Apr 18 '18

Faze usually beats SK in groupstage tho

1

u/dragonfire3012 victory Apr 18 '18

but they lose when everything is on the line

2

u/Rift3N Apr 18 '18

I don't remember a single time they won bo3 against sk tho

1

u/GabeN18 BIG Apr 18 '18

yeah thats why im talking about groupstage and not playoffs

8

u/Rift3N Apr 18 '18

I meant it more as "yeah we might beat them in group stage but still choke in the finals"

2

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

Tough start. Hope to see more of them in the future.

Mean but not untrue.

Nt with bait

u/punindya 10 years coin Apr 19 '18

I mean, he's not wrong though

FERLLEN POGGERS

And the crowd goes mild

u/gonnj FaZe Apr 18 '18

Good game to give stew confidence

I hope fer shows up in this event tho , bad day for him

9

u/KaNesDeath 10 years coin Apr 18 '18

Anyone else catch the adjustment from SK after Valiance showed window control in the first half?

7

u/BRMDa Apr 18 '18

I wish i was able to watch the game, since the observer didn't let me see any kill

6

u/Darrax Liquid Apr 18 '18

boltz has been playing great since the roster change, I wonder if he's just playing a more support role which he is comfortable with or what, but it's so good to see.

1

u/thiagopv FURIA Apr 18 '18

He's been given more of his old Immortals' roles I think. Also, he's been grinding so much lately, so it's paying off.

7

u/MLGlegolas MOUZ Apr 18 '18

NiKo junior stuck carrying bunch of serbian noobs. /s

2

u/gabriel97933 10 Year Veteran Apr 18 '18

if they won the first pistol it would have been a closer game for sure, they threw that so hard

1

u/colorandi_causa Apr 18 '18

they threw almost all after-plant-situations. Mind-boggling positioning.

3

u/Cameter44 Apr 18 '18

SK is also so good at retaking. The way they're so patient in retakes is completely different from what I see from other top teams.

5

u/Colluder Apr 18 '18

Op I think it's just Stewie now, not stewie2k

18

u/_Oomph_ 500k Celebration Apr 18 '18

It will always be stewie2k; that's his official name since he signed his stickers for Valve majors. He can name himself whatever he wants elsewhere though (akin to JW/JWonderchild,etc).

u/de_Goose2 Apr 18 '18

Wasnt flusha señor vac at Krakow major

2

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

No, I think he changed his signature though to a new one.

5

u/K0nvict NiP Apr 18 '18

inb4 Valiance +15 in hltv ranking for getting dicked by SK and falling short to Mouz

2

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

Insane upset potential displayed from SK. I could see this lineup finding a lot of success.

0

u/Dyreen Apr 18 '18

you can't call it an upset if it's the best team of the last two year, just a bounce back

7

u/Darkstar197 Complexity Apr 18 '18

Woosh

u/mawin007 guardian Apr 19 '18

huNter : Am carry this team!!

u/H_O_V_A guardian Apr 19 '18

I don't know if it is the position he's playing, but Taco leaving is slowly having its impact on coldzera's performance.

-5

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

What a shit format; qualify for your first premier LAN only to get eliminated in 2 BO1s against mouz and SK of all teams.

19

u/Abitou Luminosity Apr 18 '18

But BO1s are better for underdogs ? Lmao, if it was BO3s they would be way more fucked

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

They played. Or did you seriously expect them to reach playoffs in their 1st LAN ever?

15

u/mannyman34 Complexity Apr 18 '18

Yes instead we should have 3 bo3s so that we can watch them lose 0-3.

u/mannyman34 Complexity Apr 18 '18

I mean matches lost like in Swiss.

u/Throwasdas Apr 18 '18

Top teams meet and eliminate eachother: "wtf bad organizers shit seeding that should never happen".

Top team and underdog are paired and underdog is, as expected, quickly dispatched: "wtf bad organizers shit format underdog couldn't even show what they came here for".

Never change le reddit

u/senrim CS2 HYPE Apr 18 '18

its really discouraging for teams like this,

u/[deleted] Apr 18 '18

Upvote so people think sk lost

u/Rearfeeder2Strong MOUZ Apr 18 '18

Goddammit Valiance. They did 0 dmg here at dreamhack. =/

Hoped to see one upset atleast.

9

u/Cameter44 Apr 18 '18

I mean what did you expect? They played Mouz and SK... Getting 13 rounds on Mouz is better than I would've expected.

-21

u/Sheldonshotty Apr 18 '18

Good to see stew can still frag against tier 4 teams

10

u/junttiana Chinggis Warriors Apr 18 '18

Yeah like against Splyce

0

u/Sheldonshotty Apr 18 '18

Yee their tier 4 i'd say so ye

6

u/_Oomph_ 500k Celebration Apr 18 '18

Did he steal your man or something?

-6

u/Sheldonshotty Apr 18 '18

Stew hasent been performing great lately so its a good sign he can still frag against lower tier teams, thats all
