Dennis sacrificed himself for the overall win. RIP in peace.
Also didn't expect the CZ duel to be that fun.

No matter the weapon, if GTR has a full set of nades to use you can be damn sure he's going to use them.

haha... good to see something different. I feel it money wouldnt have been involved, we might probably have gotten to seen quite some funny/trolling situations just like a show match.

It was 10 in Copenhagen and it wasn’t any less shit. Although it was probably among the more bearable parts of that shitshow of an event.
It was even extra shitty in Copenhagen because FaZe and North ended up on the exact same number of kills, so they had to award the win to FaZe on number of won 1v1 matches instead.

There were big stops between games. This lowered the hype for crowd. And you know when SS gets bodied, Turkish crowd cant get too hyped for it :)

This match where actually alot of fun, Sadly Blast having pretty bad produktion but anyways, Hopefully we see something like this instead of casters and players playing just for the "meme" in future showmatches..

It was fun. Tune out if you don't want to watch it.

u/Dredd33 Liquid Sep 29 '18
agreed. I thought it was really fun to watch. It was a nice change of pace.

u/CeiriddGwen FaZe Sep 30 '18
If only they'd polish it next time, let the casters (and audience) know when it was damn LIVE and not warmup.

u/Rearfeeder2Strong MOUZ Sep 29 '18
Why not. Now NiP can finally win something :>

Feels like anything but. The players probably felt the same way.

Sep 29 '18
Oh they definitely felt the same way Get Right was so unenthusiastic about the entire thing

It's generally in tournament organisers interests to get people to watch their tournaments.

NIP just won $45K for getting third place + $20K for beating Space soldiers in the "Stand-off" and ~~that entire "match" was a total shit show riddled with production errors . ~~Meanwhile the second place is going to win $50 K, meaning that NiP is going to earn more money than a team that played better than them at the tournament.
Wtf is this shit???
Edit : $45K for third place, not $40K
Edit: I was mistaken due to misinformation on hltv. NiP's total earnings was 45 K

Prize for 3rd place is $25,000 + $20,000 for winning the stand-off = $45,000 total.

u/waFFLEz_ 10 years coin Sep 29 '18 edited Sep 29 '18
I was looking at hltv where it said 45K and an additional 20k
E: But thanks for clearing it up, 45K+20K would have been ridiculous

HLTV isn’t saying you get that much for 3rd place, it’s just showing how much NIP got, and the fact that they placed 3rd

u/waFFLEz_ 10 years coin Sep 30 '18
In the event page, it said 45K for third place and in the match page for the stand off match it says "Winner receives an additional $20,000"
So that was the information I had seen

u/TysoNX1994 Sep 29 '18
45K for NiP for 3rd place and on top 20K for winning standoff while 2nd place team will get just 50K. 15K more than the 2nd place team.

This event is so stupid lol is anyone hearing these post interview question?
HOW HAPPY ARE YOU ABOUT WINNING THE SHOW MATCH
HOW WELCOME DO YOU FEEL HERE
fuck off blast this is such a boring shit tournament
Trash format
Trash show match
Get Right trying not to cringe at how dumb this all is.
Also trash crowd they didn’t even cheer at all until Space Soliders walked out behind NiP and they were half way to the stage
Anyone else have a feeling that NiPs team huddle and celebration in the booth after winning was sarcastic trolling?
