2012-02-26 16:23:24

2012-02-26 16:30:26
+ crisby and KenaN are currently playing for mTw's german CSS team and they're former Alternate players so ...
2012-02-26 16:59:06

Nope, they've played terrible lately, only securing a 3rd place at the Danish LAN HKLAN, and a 2nd place at SteelSeries League. Epsilon beated them three times in a row..
2012-02-26 16:26:14
We will see, they practised alot after ss l and danish!
2012-02-26 16:45:15
and it's a mix tonight.

Nah, they are only 4 players since h0lm left, so rylander wasent a real 5th man. But then again, they will allways be a mix, untill they get the last man.
2012-02-26 17:06:52
didn't realize StefN is 3k2, my bad, the danish scene is confusing sometimes.

wait.. Fetish isn't there either..

Cant use a name starting with numbers on esl ^^ And yeah, just 2 from our team on the lineup today, so it is a mix, dont think it will matter really, as I dont think any of the teams have practised in csgo :D
2012-02-26 17:49:13
this is gonna be fucking awesome

lots of butthurt hltv.org poor kids though
2012-02-26 15:53:22
ESC and ALTERNATE to come last and lose every game
2012-02-26 15:54:50
says a guy from uk :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD


seriously, get a life dude.

2012-02-26 15:58:48
HEHAEAHE.... u should get a life
2012-02-26 16:03:38
don't you want to live in the uk anyway?
2012-02-26 16:25:05
almost no one would want to live there, all the time it is fogy, rainy and damp. I don't really enjoy that weather, and c'mon when it gets -15 you close schools? are you kidding me? here it gets -30 and we still go to not miss any lesson. ;D
2012-02-26 16:29:19
you missed the joke man
2012-02-26 16:35:56
Explain the joke to me-_-. I'm to serious to understand the joke.
2012-02-26 16:48:38
I'll explain. The joke was about how England is a first world country while Latvia is not.
2012-02-26 19:19:16
hmm but the funny part is that he replied to a guy from Poland at first. :/
2012-02-26 19:29:46
Well same shit.
2012-02-26 19:37:41
tell me the funny part and I'll tell You off.
2012-02-26 16:56:45
me too. didn't understand your "joke".
2012-02-26 17:37:34
They close the schools because the UK rarely gets such conditions. Councils would be wasting money by investing money into relief for something which very rarely happens.
2012-02-26 18:16:24
well, i guess your talking about some 10iq retards who come to your country and take a jobs from well educated british dudes (unfortunately, there is not some many of them in your country). oh well...wanna talk about it?
2012-03-01 19:04:43

Wow. That's plain vulgar coming from the site mod.
2012-02-26 19:29:47

2012-02-26 18:17:21

Verygames will win
2012-02-26 15:57:57
1.6 players will show how counter strike should be played
2012-02-26 16:00:22
Poland 2Strong
2012-02-26 16:03:04
i don't think 1.6 clans have any chance here. css + cod = csgo. verygames will probably take this
2012-02-26 16:08:25
VeryGames for sure
2012-02-26 16:11:11
Easy for CSS teams...
2012-02-26 16:12:48
esc go! poland NEO!!!

5 Source teams and 3 1.6 teams.... And the 1.6 teams is very weak. ESC only good team, and they are terrible online.. VeryGames easy..
2012-02-26 16:16:47
2 1.6 6 source teams
2012-02-26 16:32:31
ESC will be raped, don't get your hopes high. CSGO is pretty much source 2.0.
2012-02-26 16:19:36
i sure they will playing just for fun :D
2012-02-26 16:22:34
I think the source teams are playing just for fun aswell m8.
2012-02-26 17:32:39
and... its online! poor ESC.
2012-02-26 16:24:47
2 teams 1.6, other css, guys open your eyes ;)
2012-02-26 16:23:32
Source teams will have big advantage since the maps are pretty much from source. But anyway gl to ESC.
2012-02-26 16:24:00
Shame we couldn't see a couple more 1.6 teams hopefully they do another tournement after IEM is done.
2012-02-26 16:24:02
well alternate should play csgo they will never win somethinh big in 1.6, but why esccccccc
2012-02-26 16:26:02
probably they will, cs expert
2012-02-26 16:32:54
joe <3
2012-02-26 16:32:45
source players will got this :/ same engine
2012-02-26 16:43:13
Final will be ESC vs VeryGames anyway I suppose by watching the tournament tree... :D
2012-02-26 16:47:01
would be cool, but i see that source fags will win this and their 14 yr old community be like "LOL 1.6 NOOBS" :D
2012-02-26 17:26:01
I play cs source since 2005 but only watch 1.6 promatches and I can easily say that 1.6 is 10 times more difficult than source =P Hate those kids too.. :D
2012-02-26 17:56:47
well i play cs 1.6 since 2004 and its always hard and mostly i lose the matches. in cs source i have only 60 hours of playing and always like 30-2 stats and get banned from every second server for "wallhack, aimbot" so on, like their admins are 12 years old :( the game is too easy and the community immature. and i sadly see that coming in CS:GO too
2012-02-26 18:38:14
True. :D x) and when does this cup start FFS! :S .. wait wait wait :DD
2012-02-26 18:45:27
CS:GO isn't skill game according to the Valve so luck will talk in cs.go matches
2012-02-26 16:49:54
Mousesports fr0m ENGLAND?
2012-02-26 16:51:25
mouz.css have a UK team for international competition and a DE one for the eps.de

like mtw.css (4 uk players + nooky (DE) and a german line-up

and Tt dragons.css ( 4 french players + 1 belgium) plus a german line-up

This is how "deaded" CSS is.

dead is fine lol :P

deaded isn't a word :D
2012-02-26 18:18:36
There is a novelty account "css is deading".
2012-02-26 19:24:58
it was a joke, that's why is used " : i know that on hltv.org many people like to say "css is deading" or "deaded".
2012-02-26 23:47:42
Oh ok. Very funny.

ESC vs VG in final.
2012-02-26 17:05:36
VeryGames very strong atm..
2012-02-26 17:08:54
not that much, two players left for Tt.Dragons lately : shox and SmithZz
2012-02-26 17:19:53
VG - Mouz in final if mouz is playing somewhat serious.
2012-02-26 17:34:13
I'm not sure with it but I think the Cs 1.6 will loose quite high. I think people who are used to Css have more chances tonight.
2012-02-26 17:35:36
Im glad to see that HLTV.org is already the place to be if you wanna follow CS:GO competitive. Awesome job HLTV! You guys are the best in this business!

mousesports
Big sorry to all mousesports and Team Razer fans - the CS:GO kick-off tournament ESL Go4CSGO has been cancelled due to unfixable server issues. P.S.: Valve, we would like to get our hands on those dedicated serverfiles, too. :P
2012-02-26 19:13:27

2012-02-26 19:44:40
Nice, this game is the biggest shit I have ever seen.
2012-02-26 20:01:13
If CS:GO is like CS:Source, this tournament will be pretty easy for VeryGaming
2012-02-26 20:11:51
if esc will win all will understand that source is shit :) even sourcers
2012-02-26 21:34:27
VG will crush ESC
2012-02-26 21:50:44
maybe not crush but something like 16-9 for VG since CS:GO is like source =P
2012-02-26 22:26:33
GO isnt like CSS or 1.6
2012-02-27 00:29:31
verygames will win this
