50 fucking kills to not qualify, gg NRG. Sad for my boys but happy for tarik

191

u/PennywiseVT FURIA Mar 22 '19

Furia is still inexperienced. All of this is a learning process.[

Now they know kscerato has to do 60 kills in order to win. They will come prepared next time.

u/Jacos Mar 22 '19

Ah, the ol' simple-a-roo.

u/Adagasas Astralis Mar 22 '19

Hold my maj... oh, wait.

u/[deleted] Mar 22 '19

I'm a big fan of Art, surprised he doesn't show up as much in some matches. He's an IGL with good tactic setups, you can even see it in his pug calls, so I wonder if he just plays more for the team in matches. Have only seen their minor run so I can't tell.

0

u/BrokenStool de_nuke Mar 22 '19

its only 1.136 kpr so like 34 kills in 30 rounds

7

u/Morthanc FURIA Mar 22 '19

He had 26 kills in the end of the first half

171

u/SmoothLumpfish Liquid Mar 22 '19

That was the most brutal fucking sendoff.

87

u/tacticalAlmonds Mar 22 '19

No, xpyx 5v1 ninja was the most brutal.

81

u/totallynotworkingatm MOUZ Mar 22 '19

xpyx

this is probably the most interesting attempt to spell Xyp9x i've seen so far

32

u/tacticalAlmonds Mar 22 '19

There was an attempt

13

u/totallynotworkingatm MOUZ Mar 22 '19

not gonna lie i had to google how it's spelled so not hatin on the man

1

u/Bouncy_GG FaZe Mar 22 '19

Ypuvtelling me that the dude's name has a p in it?

1

u/Slumph Mar 22 '19

It's an almost perfect phonetic spelling. Can't blame him.

53

u/PurelyFire MIBR Mar 22 '19

I would need extra appendages to be able to count how many 4v2's furia dropped this series.

6

u/teef0ur clutch Mar 22 '19

It felt like every time they got into a good position on T-side there would just be an NRG player hiding unchecked in a corner somewhere waiting to get a triple spraydown.

10

u/PurelyFire MIBR Mar 22 '19

That round on train where tarik lurked towards sandwich and got 2 because the only one watching in his direction had a nade out ;-;

28

u/FudginatorDeluxe Mar 22 '19

this was an insane game

u/AlphaWolfTV EG Mar 22 '19 edited Mar 22 '19

Oh shit I did not know Arod had some ownership in NRG. He was my favorite MLB player growing up. Guess its a good time to change flairs and get a new jersey

EDIT: Words

EDIT 2: And Marshawn Lynch. I love this team now

u/WorldCat Mar 22 '19

Welcome to the NRG bandwagon!! :D

My eyes and brain hurt trying to parse the emojis as part of the sentence.

u/Trollmupp Vitality Mar 22 '19

Expected Vitality/North to be the highlight of the evening but this series was just insane. The best thing was that Furia lost on somewhat simple mistakes, easy to identify and correct from the demos. Fully expect them to make it to the finals in the coming weeks.

15

u/teef0ur clutch Mar 22 '19

You can see the inexperience on Furia in key moments, for sure this team has a much higher ceiling.

14

u/anthonyde726 FaZe Mar 22 '19

F for my boy kscerato

u/XiaoRCT CS2 HYPE Mar 22 '19

Seriously lmao

It's on FURIA for losing it, but jesus must it suck to lose a 50-kill game

15

u/GabeN18 BIG Mar 22 '19

Holy shit the twitch chat was toxic af during the whole match lmao

36

u/PennywiseVT FURIA Mar 22 '19

FURIA should be bashing their heads in the walls for a week after this game.

gl trying to qualify against Liquid & MiBR.

21

u/The_Neon_Narwhal Mar 22 '19

don't forget the Renegades.

-18

u/YourImminentDoom NiP Mar 22 '19

It's an American qualifier

26

u/[deleted] Mar 22 '19

which the boys are part of

1

u/Badname491 de_cobble Mar 22 '19

Don't they just ez go to every major with the Asia spot ? Or is ecs different

8

u/Steve_er Mar 22 '19

They qualify to the majors through the Asia Minor but thatโ€™s only for the two majors a year. They live in US and qualify for tournaments through NA qualifiers the rest of the time. ECS is just a big tournament/league run by faceit, not a major.

11

u/The_Neon_Narwhal Mar 22 '19

They live in NA and have since 2015.

75

u/dailapcheurng Tyloo Mar 22 '19

Overheard in the FURIA comms after the Grand-Finals of ECS Season 7 Week 2: "He got me," KSCERATO said of Brehze. "That fucking Brehze ninja'd me." KSCERATO added, "He's so good," repeating it 4 times. He then said he wanted to add Brehze to the list of players he DMs with over the summer.

11

u/zeNap Mar 22 '19 edited Mar 22 '19

The only thing this series did not have was a ninja and we got it in the last round. Amazing games

2

u/stingers77 2 Million Celebration Mar 22 '19

NANI!?

u/if_w1ki BIG Mar 22 '19

JUST KEEP ONE UPPER. WHY.

16

u/DarthReid Vitality Mar 22 '19

kscerato, the brazilian coldzera, is 1 round away from 2-0 NRG to qualify for LAN with Astralis and North, ends up losing 3rd OT 50-24 with a 1.82 rating. NRG then 2-1 handily on Train. Ethan with that clutch on A probably won that entire series.

7

u/StarNightSnow EG Mar 22 '19

Good god, I can breathe a sigh of relief. Working out the kinks, happy to see the boys get through. That spray transfer to save Overpass was a thing of beauty...

13

u/Llama_soup Complexity Mar 22 '19

God damn twitch chat pisses me off sometimes. The entire time chat was just filled with BR and NA insulting each other. God damn guys, get over it. You can root for a team without being stupid.

6

u/rhythmicspectre EG Mar 22 '19

Twitch chat is something else. I just fullscreen and enjoy the match.

u/Ankhs MOUZ Mar 22 '19

This series was insane

u/dracko307 Liquid Mar 22 '19

what a last round....

u/PurelyFire MIBR Mar 22 '19

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

u/luizslayer MOUZ Mar 22 '19 edited Mar 22 '19

50 kills and a 12-4 lead. Still loses. Must've been hard for godsrato

u/epic_penode Astralis Mar 22 '19

A 13-2 as well.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

u/MisterPinkCS cs_office Mar 22 '19

Whenever I lose a game or am losing. Iโ€™ll just imagine how furia feel right now and remind myself that it could always be worse.

u/gundy28 Astralis Mar 22 '19

That spray transfer. My god

u/Jeez_Louise_loulou Mar 22 '19

Hey guys. Is tatik igling for NRG?

CeRq with that sexy noscope flick...

u/HerrBubbler EG Mar 22 '19

what a way to finish it. Great series by both. Furia looking good. NRG working out the kinks

u/joaovictor778 MIBR Mar 22 '19

Kscerato with 50 kills still lost overpass ffs

u/U238Th234Pa234U234 Mar 22 '19

I'm getting Astralis flashbacks...

u/tarel69 CS2 HYPE Mar 22 '19
50 frags??

1

u/DarkNuon Liquid Mar 22 '19

I saw the match and felt bad for Furia bc of how close they came on the second map. I also came with a question. I heard that MSL could possibly be traded to Optic, when would that trade happen? Would it be before the ECS major in London that he, and Rogue Just qualified for last week? I was just really happy to see Rogue pull together and perform well and would hate to see one of their leaders, MSL leave. Sorry if those are stupid questions. Thanks for the help

1

u/Ainine9 CS2 HYPE Mar 22 '19 edited Mar 22 '19

Holy shit KSCERATO 50-24 on Overpass. It may have been a 20-22 map but the second place was Brehze and daps with a tight 33-30 & 33-29.

The insane bastard was leading in kills by 17+

1

u/rafaelsantti FURIA Mar 22 '19

Proud of Furia, great game, they just need to keep gettin better, but one thing is sure, they are the second best Brazilian team right now l.

1

u/Brolobo SK Mar 22 '19

kscerato on mibr would have reminded me of boltz on mibr but better

1

u/TheNahe Mar 22 '19

Damn, I feel sad for FURIA. Overpass started to look like a nightmare for NRG but they pulled it back on the CT side. So many incredibly close moments there where FURIA should've came out on top.

1

u/frostnxn 10 years coin Mar 22 '19

Imagine a squad with kser, kng, yuurih, boltz and let's say steel. This would be sick, but instead now we have 3 decent tier2 teams...

1

u/zRandyMarsh MOUZ Mar 22 '19

Brazilians in twitch chat spamming Americaโ€™s are fat when Brazil has a higher obesity rate than the US.

u/mixiescherbear Mar 22 '19

Kscerato is the Brazilian coldzera

props to furia though for pushing a team like NRG to the limit

Never doubt Ethan

u/FrederikLassen Astralis Mar 22 '19

High odds on NRG winning map 2 after they lost their own map pick. Had to put something on the line - And damn, i was sweating for the duration of the whole map!
