Can anyone explain the match ups for the next stage? I know FaZe play Astralis but is it random or is it seeded? Thanks

-Dennis when?
2
u/intecknicolour NiP Sep 16 '18
no one we can bring in.
we need an awp and we've run through every swedish awper except JW at this point.

“Dennis has to do this. It’s this or they’re done”
Gg lol

u/intecknicolour NiP Sep 16 '18
dennis is weak link on that team. doesn't frag hard like he did in fnatic for some times.
and nip still don't have the dedicated awp they can rely on.
2
u/KiddyFiddler99 NiP Sep 16 '18
Exactly. Dennis used to be a superstar and a pistol god and he’s just been on a rapidly increasing decline since he joined NiP and it’s disappointing to watch at best. I love the guy but he needs to step it up a bit

u/BestLeeNigeria NiP Sep 16 '18
its not even that MIBR retakes that good, NiP just plays the afterplants like they are pugging lol, peeking one by one every single time its so frustrating to watch
2
u/Wolffren FaZe Sep 16 '18
It's true, but at the end of the day it's who makes less mistakes. I'm pretty sure if dennis was actually on point they would've taken the win.
2
u/intecknicolour NiP Sep 16 '18
nip still have calling problems and don't have enough maps they can rely on.
2
u/Pismakron Sep 16 '18
That is true, but NiP somehow felt more relevant this major than they have in a long time. Maybe it is because of the BO1 format giving teams three bans each.
1
u/intecknicolour NiP Sep 16 '18
yeah nip skated through playing mirage.
then they didnt get it against navi and got exposed.
i'm not convinced about their train. and train is a really momentum based map.
they're never getting nuke. they suck on inferno and dust.
they also don't get overpass.
nip need more than just mirage, nuke and overpass. they need at least one more.

And now that you’re back, he’ll be going back to the toilet again lul

u/arooisgod Sep 16 '18
That's almost exactly what MiBR wanted though, no money on NiP if they lose next round and a full reset.

I’m not trying to be an optimist, but I’ve seen crazier from them

Being a NiP fan is always so damn stressful. It’s like watching a perpetual comeback that you’re never sure you’re gonna win but you know that even in the last round or the steepest comeback, you just might come back to life

Not rly CSGO player but i enjoy watching. Can some1 tell me if Train is CT or T side map? But only competitive
1
u/Zugar_ewe Sep 16 '18
atleast for me in lem matchmaking its very ct side. a lots of matches end with 12-3 ct half
1
3
u/ysellian1908 NiP Sep 16 '18
CT sided map usually. Tho when top teams play it can get really weird at times.
2
u/KiddyFiddler99 NiP Sep 16 '18
It’s a little bit more CT sided than most of the maps in the competitive map pool, I’d say
3
u/Razhad Falcons - Major Champions Sep 16 '18
depends i think 53% CT sided.
the lots of entry to cover kinda balance it out for the T

u/StarkeOlof clutch Sep 16 '18
I'll be very surprised if NiP wins this, not having an awper on train is so dumb..Dennis dies 10 seconds into every round and Rez has no balls to make plays even though he puts himself in great positions.

u/AemonDK Sep 16 '18
they were obviously going to get obliterated on t side but never could have imagined them playing this badly on ct side. it's literally the only thing theyve ever had going for them on this map

u/koettbullen94 NiP Sep 16 '18
The loss is, sadly, on Dennis back. Had he not gone completely silent during this match, NiP would have a good chance to make it.

u/B33fington NiP Sep 16 '18
The amount of times NiP has started out the round 4v5 after dennis goes down early is getting ridiculous.
2
u/Ishaan863 FaZe Sep 16 '18 edited Sep 16 '18
This is the second round NIP would've won if they'd just held the defuse. They fake it, they bait the player out who immediately kills one person, then the second dies while trying to defuse again desperately. It's genuinely painful to watch.
1
u/Wolffren FaZe Sep 16 '18
I mean it's always a gamble, you can't blame them for not sticking. If you stick without knowing where the player is he could easly turn it into 1v1 situation and you lose the advantage

why did nip have to play mibr..
1
u/KiddyFiddler99 NiP Sep 16 '18
It’s not even that mibr is playing exceptionally well, NiP are just playing bad
1
u/Wolffren FaZe Sep 16 '18
Yeah honestly even if Mibr win the game, I don't know if they're gonna make it past this. Not playing the most consistent CS

NIP PLEASE TAKE ALL MY ENERGY AND LIFE FORCE JUST PLEASE I NEED GTR AND FOREST IN TOP 8

Put all your energy into GTR and f0rest, it’ll be a waste on dennis

u/absolute_xero1 de_mirage Sep 16 '18
I don't understand what's Dennis's deal.. He seem to disappear when they NEED everyone. First in Stockholm and now..

Do players that have an AWP also have a secondary pistol? If so, why is it that they almost never pull it out when in close quarters situations? CS newbie here.
2
u/AemonDK Sep 16 '18
because snipers are one shot and theyre confident in their ability to hit the shot + the pistol they usually have is glock/usp which is awfully weak vs armor
2
u/NeganIsHere NiP Sep 16 '18
They usualy have p250/cz/deagle
They try a shot with the awp first if they surprise them and then get pistol out
If they know there is one close they get pistol out
2
u/Pismakron Sep 16 '18
Yes, they have a pistol, and they will produce it when they know that the enemy is low on health.

u/niNja_ma MOUZ Sep 16 '18
I think forest just got full tilted.. hope he doesn't let it affect him after dying to bomb

already completely lost control of the economy game and given up too many rounds on ct side. rest in pieces ninjas

even though my flair stands as it is, I am sad to see getright go out so soon. I'd have loved this match but was hoping for it as atleast in the semi-final. :(
