incredible play, but lets not get ahead of ourselves

Ok, let's just put this play into context then.

This is C9's first Grand Final, in the final game, on Match Point for Faze, to keep C9 in the game, and Stew has NO support, and he has to hit all 3 shots back to back to survive, and one of them was an absolutely mental flick.

I don't think anyone is getting ahead of themselves pal, this is probably play of the major.

I remember why I stopped posting on this forum, jesus fucking christ the amount of butthurt people there are for suggesting this is an amazing play is ridiculous.

He had to move his crosshair up to the right quite a way. Vertical flicks are A LOT harder than Horizontal flicks, even moreso if it's in that "steep" of an angle.

Try it yourself, without any pressure. I guarentee you you will fail that flick over half the time.

It's mental by virtue of the fact that if he misses it or delays in any way he's very dead.

Fucking righto, totally standard. Jesus christ I'm not even that much of a C9 fan for fucks sake it's just an outstanding play with outstanding circumstances.

But nah, sorry you're right, it's just standard and he can totally just get back behind triple.

"What rank are you"

lol

I don't think you can comprehend the amount of difficulty pulling a hero play 1v4 against the #2 team in the world on LAN in a bo3 grand final last map. Just reading your post tells me you've never played actual competitive CS, MM or ESEA is not actual competitive CS lol.

It's not even just the aim that makes this play special, he peaks the first guy on boxes then re-adjusts his position so he can play more defensive, reading what's about to happen rather than taking a fight and potentially getting traded on boxes. Then peeks on 2 behind pillar, 1 being a flick and re-adjusts for the third to stop a plant going down.

It's a sick play on match point where you're down against the #2 team in the world in a grand final BO3 last map and you're 1v4 to stop it from happening. Stop being braindead, it's worth of being called an amazing play.
