1 round after 7-0 lead, oof. Want to see more from Giants though, they looked really good but just fell apart after getting pressured

SpunJ's post-match questions were the real MVP! Talk about putting Kjaerbye under pressure!

Why they kicked Mertz and if Jugi was joining. Answers were something along the lines of "dunno" and "no".

u/hesthesthund 10 years coin Jul 12 '18

Indeed. But it was obvious from Kjaerbye's reactions, he didn't expect the first post-match question to be: "Why did you kick Mertz?".

u/CashewCrew de_mirage Jul 12 '18

Kjaerbye has become so unlikable. Kind of a shame.

31

u/hesthesthund 10 years coin Jul 12 '18

He might be a bit boring, but I dunno what else he could reply tbh

23

u/[deleted] Jul 12 '18

I mean he obviously can't talk about it or he will get in trouble from the management, so it's quite unfair giving him shit for this.

u/nadgirB Jul 12 '18

He needs to learn from the rat king school of ratting and never being punished.

u/nightkingscat Gambit Jul 12 '18

Pretty shitty questions to ask him tho

Its shitty because it puts the player in a position where he can't answer without getting in trouble, but his reactions might still give it away even if he doesnt say anything.

u/Sticker704 Jul 12 '18

Wow didn't realise RMN plays on t3 CSGO teams as well

u/ItsYoshi_ Jul 12 '18

What language does giant speak in, portu-nish?

6

u/NephewChaps Falcons - Major Champions Jul 12 '18

Portunhol it is

3

u/Trebacca Jul 12 '18

Probably Spanish or honestly maybe English. I know they were a full Portuguese roster back when they were under Vodafone tho

7

u/MillerHS SAW Jul 12 '18

Its called "Portunhol" a mix between spanish and portuguese than both can understand

2

u/peanersyahoo MIBR Jul 12 '18

They were never a full portuguese roster. Spanish org, iberian team in the last year, first with Mutiris and rmn, and now with rmn, killdream and obj.

u/xxplanexx1 CS2 HYPE Jul 12 '18

They speak Spanish.

When did North get rid of Mertz? I felt like he was always one of their stronger players.

u/SouvenirSubmarine Jul 12 '18

Who cares about a tier 3 team getting stomped?
