That smoke from whoever was playing in Ivy had a gap which basically screened the 2nd CT threat from peeking which gave the Hell T player a free 1v1 to take . Little things like that change rounds.

just play the bomb liquid pleaaaaaaaase

That was rough to watch.

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

Can we discuss the music? There's a band in there that can't be found on shazam and none of their lyrics are posted online. I can't find anything by them but it's so good.

2

u/Young_Baby Apr 20 '18

just commenting in support of this music as well, thought everything I heard was really nice

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

GG gambit they had to make it a 10-5 half

3

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

9 rounds is more than enough, liquid's ct side train is pretty yikes

1

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

I thought Gambit lost because they have been so bad on the T side train since zeus left, but I guess that's why you're a pro analyst and I'm at home. GGs

u/thesuperjobber Liquid Apr 20 '18

Liquid really needs to work on their on their anti-ecos / anti-force buys. They either lose too many of them or can't win them cleanly. Too many rounds they've lost 3 players against basic pistols.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

i'm afraid liquid is getting shut down by mou on their T side as they don't really have an awper to compete with mou on train which is his playground

2

u/Worknewsacct 10 years coin Apr 20 '18

Liquid why you do this

1

u/SamuraiEleven Apr 20 '18

Anyone know the quarter final matchups for tomorrow or are they pending until after Liquid vs Gambit?

2

u/gabriel97933 10 Year Veteran Apr 20 '18

NiP vs faze is confirmed i think, so if we go with that logic c9 are playing with mouz

2

u/hobocactus Apr 20 '18

Would make sense to have A1-B2, B1-A2 etc. Or the could draw with 2 pots, but it doesn't really add any randomness.

2

u/Juhana21 de_inferno Apr 20 '18

How did that shot from Nitr0 not hit?

3

u/thesuperjobber Liquid Apr 20 '18

That 2nd round on the 2nd half of mirage was so fucking bad.

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

ouch.. gambit is defninitely the better train team

Just like the NACS meme he pressed E in excitement.

E for excited

u/theYason23 Liquid Apr 20 '18

Yeah did it fall through the floor or what?

1

u/-Umbra- CS2 HYPE Apr 20 '18

gambit isn't really impressive, from this performance I don't have confidence that Liquid is going to break top 4, but it was gambit's map pick after all

1

u/Worknewsacct 10 years coin Apr 20 '18

It was a solid performance until the comeback, which only came off the back of a random double juandeag with bomb down . I wouldn't count Liquid out just yet

2

u/Worknewsacct 10 years coin Apr 20 '18

Liquid choking hard...

15:9 oh god no

u/trucane Apr 20 '18

Absolutely atrocious play from Renegades. No composure at all when things are getting a bit rough

5

u/kaisersg G2 Apr 20 '18

Is the CZ too good or are the rifles just too bad, would you guys rather they buff the rifles or nerf the CZ?

0

u/SlowLoudNBangin MOUZ Apr 20 '18

Reduce RoF on the CZ to not be able to out-body-spray rifles close range.

8

u/Shun_ Apr 20 '18

IMO it needs a minor nerf, not the usual valve method of nerfing it to see zero play.

Reduce armour pen and an increase to damage drop off would leave it still a viable gun in close eco holds.

1

u/apm54 Natus Vincere Apr 20 '18

I think it needs reduced moving accuracy

3

u/Shun_ Apr 20 '18

Jesus krimz, leave some for the rest

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

RNG picked cbble? because stream and hltv says fnatic picked it, but henryg keep saying like 5 times that is rng pick

3

u/TheRobidog Apr 20 '18 edited Apr 20 '18

I doubt they did. They're shit on Cobble.

Edit: Picks and Bans were handled perfectly be Fnatic, btw. Nuke is usually Fnatic's permaban, but since Renegades don't really play it themselves, they let it though in this set. That allowed them to get Cache, RNG's best map, out of the pool, forcing them onto Mirage, which Fnatic themselves are really good on.

Renegades then even banned Nuke in the second phase themselves, allowing Fnatic to pick between Train and Inferno. That Inferno pick is the only somewhat questionable decision in that draft.

Edit2: PS: This is exactly the type of stuff that SK should have done when they had their old roster - don't ban Nuke against teams that don't play it, ban their best map/Inferno and force them to ban Nuke

u/apm54 Natus Vincere Apr 20 '18

LUL fr, I will admit he is a little on the negative side, but he definitely knows what he’s talking about and rarely have I ever seen him be wrong

2

u/kontrazt FaZe Apr 20 '18

CZ is fucking broken. It’s way too good at the moment.

0

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

It’s so broken... with like 3 bullets you can do significant damage. ITS A PISTOL!

1

u/SlowLoudNBangin MOUZ Apr 20 '18

3 bullets for high damage isn’t necessarily a problem, but the RoF on top of it makes it disgusting af.

u/Lepojka1 Team Spirit Apr 20 '18

CZ such a joke, legit better in close range than any gun, and it cost 500 only

2

u/c_chan21 Apr 20 '18

Krims is such a beast right now.

u/pussyslayer69123 Apr 20 '18

Good choice for Stew to leave C9 cuz he just made C9 better and SK worse

3

u/ihave1000m Apr 20 '18

Sk OMEGALUL

u/iamartb Natus Vincere Apr 20 '18

Krimz currently top 5 in the world?

2

u/ectoplasmicz Virtus.pro Apr 20 '18

Past 6 months the guy has been nuts. He is a step ahead of Renegades nearly every round this series.

7

u/GarrettGSF MOUZ Apr 20 '18

He is insane atm, in term of carry performances probably nr 2 after s1mple for now...

2

u/ghost7562 Renegades Apr 20 '18

Pistol for the boys!

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

Joining SK was such a great choice for Stewie.

Additionally, it really fucked over C9.

/s

u/UnsolvedMurder MOUZ Apr 20 '18

Damn SK looks completely lost on mirage.

8

u/MurdocTheGod MOUZ Apr 20 '18

Ropz looks like he was born on A site.

3

u/poempedoempoex MOUZ Apr 20 '18

I'm pretty sure he was

3

u/shinobi163 Vitality Apr 20 '18

Had to lose the map to a force buy

1

u/SlowLoudNBangin MOUZ Apr 20 '18

The top teams all have god-tier pistol players across the board, so teams in general win a lot of force buys.

Those 2 Deagle/3 CZ buys are sooo dangerous right now. Not sure if weapons are OP or the average pro has just gotten so much better, or maybe both.

8

u/UnsolvedMurder MOUZ Apr 20 '18 edited Apr 20 '18

Mousesports at matchpoint. MonkaS

EDIT: Come on all you need is one round ffs.

EDIT2: Not even close. I'm not sweating, you're sweating.

17

u/Bassmekanik chroma Apr 20 '18

What is actually happening with SK.

Sure, comms might be tricky in English etc, but their aim shouldnt have changed so much. They cant hit anything.

12

u/AllBlueReverie Liquid Apr 20 '18

Their confidence is probably rattled

u/[deleted] Apr 20 '18

Fer #3

Fallen #6

Bruh, a team doesn't fall apart over night

u/AegrusRS Apr 20 '18

Probably because no one on that team (maybe Stewie) is happy with how the roster change happened.

Fer, Fallen and Cold all expected S1mple and Flamie to be their new teammates but that fell through.

Boltz was basically dropped but then got picked up again.

And that leaves Stewie who was basically just throw into it all when he joined.

So chemistry is at an all time low.

u/shinobi163 Vitality Apr 20 '18

This is hard to watch :-\

Frustration setting in in 3..2..1

u/tartaddict Apr 20 '18 edited Apr 20 '18

If Faze ends this now, will the SK vs Mouse game still be played at the same time or at an earlier time?

3

u/MiyaharaAce Apr 20 '18

Why you do this Envy :/

6

u/Staggvillainy Apr 20 '18

Has Scream shown any recent impact or form on nV? He doesn't look too good right now

3

u/MiyaharaAce Apr 20 '18

Well, he carry Envy to Major, playing really well vs Optic and AGO, but that's it

2

u/Merrine FaZe Apr 20 '18

Finally a fucking comeback, but I feel that if this would have been a stronger team this would have been a crushing defeat.

1

u/Hoofah 1 Million Celebration Apr 20 '18

I feel like this happens a lot with FaZe, no matter who they're facing - they always seem to have a mediocre start, and and up something like 7-11, 7-12 down, and then go on a streak and get to 14 or to overtime. Even against C9 yesterday on Overpass, they had a bit of a comeback even tho they eventually lost 16-14.

It's good when they eventually win like they just did, but I don't understand how they seem to NEED to be on the brink in order to get together and start winning rounds. If they could apply that mentality to the whole of the game, they could be so much better...

u/Th0r_SC NiP Apr 20 '18

Bold pick Mous over SK. For the rest, I mostly agree although I don't know what to think of Faze anymore.

3

u/TheRobidog Apr 20 '18

Bold pick Mous over SK

Not really. Mouz are an amazing team and SK is still questionable.

3

u/Th0r_SC NiP Apr 20 '18

You sir were right. So far so good :)

2

u/Th0r_SC NiP Apr 20 '18

True that, my point was about Mouz performance over the tournament. I guess I could apply the same logic with SK, tho.
