Forum thread: Can Furia win any T1 tournaments this year?

no, they are so overrated it hurts. kscerato and yuurih are wasted talents in furia.

I think they looked good last year and there is room for improvement. But certainly will be difficult.

Nothing is impossible, outsiders won the major so who knows

I'm not even asking for the major, any IEM would be pretty cool

He’s saying if a team as bad as outsiders can luck out on the majors then fuhreria can take one too

2023-01-24 04:08

they can win a tournament but not multiple in a row, their playstyle is too inconsistent and they only have 2 good players

I think the same. But if Drop keeps improving, Furia could become a strong team.

i really like drop, but similar to NAF he's limited by his role

I like NAF a lot. But in most games, it looks like he's not on the server. The style of the teams can get in the way of the players a lot

what do you mean by he is not on the server

2023-01-24 05:04

i personally disagree, Art has enough aim to be a star rifler in lots of t1 teams. But I dont think he is as good as an igl. Saffee is okay, any awper would struggle In furia's system. Drop, do what he is told I guess, he's definitely the weakest part of the team, but I can't see other one in his place. I'll fully agree on the inconsistency though, but they were wayyyy more consistent in 2022 than in 2021 at least. In 2021 they literally be beating Astralis 16/1 and the next week being 2-0 by 1win

Do you think Jota could do a better job than Drop in Furia? Brazil does not have many players for their role. Maybe Drop is the best option.

Drop has a very good awareness for someone that young, he is always at the right place at the right time, his problem is that he lacks aim and get really nervous at high stakes. Jota is probably the best player in this role in Brazil, he could probably do a better job, but I don't think furia would sign him, and I think both you and me would love to see drop succeed in furia

2023-01-24 00:04

Doubt it, it's just a 2 man show most of the time then the other 3 pieces show up sometimes and for them to win they need atleast 4/5 at a good pace there and consistantly with that, I doubt it but gl brother

I think exactly like you. It's very difficult for a team without 3 top-level players to win something. I hope Saffee fits the team and Drop shows up.

That would be perfect. But it is very difficult :(

their last tournament was the major, they lost at the semis

That’s a very good performance, there is a lot to be exited about

2023-01-24 01:20

2023-01-24 00:00

They have always gone deep, it's just that art needs to help his team focus in high-pressure situations. That is unfortunately always when art's calling goes awry. If they manage to get over that mental hurdle and find cohesion, they could become a very powerful dark horse and could even lift a trophy.

2023-01-24 00:04

2023-01-24 00:07

unless art starts playing less retardo, only fluking

2023-01-24 00:07

drop and saffee are holding the team back the most, both inconsistent af tbh

Exactly👍🏻

2023-01-24 04:43

taking into account the support of the public, they can probably win the IEM Gaules in Brazil

2023-01-24 04:45

They'll have the best chance in the Brazil tournament but I dont see this iteration of Furia making a tournament winning run. Kscerato and Yuurih need more help from the others because when you hear drop, art and saffee, you don't think title contender.

2023-01-24 00:26

Nope they need one more good player

2023-01-24 00:27

Not with arT, no. I don't think he's a good enough IGL and he has a bad habit of force buying and doing a crazy play when things are going wrong as CT and the rest of the team are on eco, and those hardly ever work.

2023-01-24 01:20

As long has they don’t have a cheating crowd, no I don’t think they will.

2023-01-24 04:06

2023-01-24 04:24

Well its not impossible probably just improbable

2023-01-24 04:27

yes they can if kscerato or yuurih lifegame with at least 2 other average performers

2023-01-24 04:28

Doubt it. Most likely not

2023-01-24 04:37

Kick drop and saffee Add lucaozy/chelo and zevy

2023-01-24 04:47

I dont know why people are blaming drop, he is a support player doing his job and is decent. Saffee on the other hand has been a meh addition to the roster, one could blame Furia's system for that but still he is underwhelming

2023-01-24 05:06

0 lan finals since 2019, this team is a joke, like the org

2023-01-24 05:36

They can, but its more likely that imperial wins a title with fallen

2023-01-24 05:37

Furia look very unpredictable to me. They will make it to more playoffs than last year but i don't see them winning any titles.

2023-01-24 05:49

Not with saffee

2023-01-24 05:49

With saffee it'll be hard, very inconsistent and they couldn't make grand finals with KSCERATO playing like a absolute stud. honestly it's a system issue with how centered they usually are with arT's entries, i think they missed out by not getting nqz for saffee, because in 2020 we saw what furia could do with hen1, and a good awper like nqz could help them a lot.

2023-01-24 05:56

Difficult. They are always there, making decent but not ultra deep playoff runs. I think that a result like major semis is reproducable for them. However I dont really see them winning say Kato, Cologne etc. On the other hand, last year was flukey as hell in the top scene. No team aside of Faze managed to win more than one top event (considering those liquipedia.net/counterstrike/S-Tier_Tour.. without blast groups). So if BIG can take home something like RoObet cup, Furia can do as well.

2023-01-24 05:58

I think they could win but they need a pretty lucky series of events to happen. Basically the top 3 or 4 in the world need to take each other out or have an off event and 3 out of Kscerato, Yuurih, Art and Saffee need to really pop off. Realistically they are probably one more + player away from really being a full contender. Really sucks they lost hen1. That team could have won a tier 1 event.

2023-01-24 06:09

Unlikely, they haven't ever been as good since the number one HEN left. They could fluke one though. They attend enough events and you never know what can happen.

2023-01-24 06:11

It's possible if drop can keep his form like he did against navi at the major, saffee hitting shots, and arT making 200iq strats rather than 4v5 every round

2023-01-24 06:11

bring back vini and hen1 and yea
