Out of all IGL's, why does Aleksi get the most hate everytime his team loses? Why does everyone think it's basically fully Aleksi's fault if they lose but when they win it's only because of individuals?
I know flag checks out but imo he is honestly overhated. In what world should a team like NIP even win against Faze, Vitality, Navi or G2 especially if they have a stand-in and a rookie headtr1ck? I'm not saying he is one of the best IGL's in the world but what I've watched NIP's games he often has good calls on T side.
Aleksib is the most overrated igl ever

he is awesome player. he is pro player and been in tier1 igl for 4 years so i dont really know. its probably just purely trolling/baiting but its amazing how much people uses time and how aleksi is living rent free in their head. for just tryna make someone who like aleksi mad.

Yeah he probably should focus a little on his presence, hyping up teammates and trying to be on a positive mood so his teammates are also more positive

Yeah I keep hearing that but I would like some actual reasons why people like you think he is so bad instead of just hearing all the time that he is the worst igl in the world
Because people overhype the hell out of him.
He is probably in the same rank with dexter, nexa , apex, nitr0 and other decent but not great T1 IGLs and people are making it seem like he is an IGL mastermind like gla1ve and karrigan.

He wouldn't get much hate if people didn't hype the shit out of him. That's why you don't see players like dexter, apex, mezii, nexa, nitro etc get that much hate even though except apex none of them have won any Tier 1 trophies recently.

You probably must have been living in a cave the last year if you didn't notice how big the hype was when Aleksib joined g2 and Nip and everyone including casters, journalists were making them contenders for big trophies.

for nerd like u its probably new that theres marketing in these kinda things. in normal sports it happens all the time. like one player will be this golden last piece. g2 hype was ofc so over but i cant tell where was this nip hype. and nip has been actually really good for this short time

Nah, I don't dive into deep conversations with people on crack who can't articulate a sentence.
What fucking hype when he joined NiP?
Most people see NiP as his last resort of being in an international team.
He himself acted like he was brought into a miracle team when they went 3-0 in major quali.

One opinion doesn't necessarily cancel the other
So what are the "great T1 IGLs"? So basically just karrigan & gla1ve are tier1 igls in your opinion? Like I said I'm not saying he is one of the best igls in the world but he is still a tier1 igl. I'd say people hate him way more than hype after the failed G2 project where tbf he didn't have that much time in since he missed EPL because of covid.

just look at what the shit astralis is doing rite nao
Stop the cap with gla1ve. Don't even compare him with karrigan lol. gla1ve himself is in the same tier of IGLs as apeX, nitr0, etc.
He's overhated because of the fan boys who constantly overhyped him for years.

who cares what they wanted lets talk about what they got. a worse igl than hooxi, g2 got a worse igl than nexa, ence got a better igl in snappi. every single one of those teams +OG are better without aleksi than with.
3 replies
Hard to compare hooxi's G2 and Aleksi's G2 when hooxi got JKS and a m0nesy with half a year of tier1 experience and communication in English and Aleksi had completely washed up Jackz and m0nesy with 0 tier1 experience or experience in communicating in English. Also hooxi managed to miss the whole major in G2. Also nexa had a completely different G2 than Aleksi. OG is a completely different roster than the one Aleksi played with, there is literally only one player left that is flameZ. Snappi joined long after Aleksi left Ence and when Aleksi was in there it was the Finnish Ence.
Idk how do you compare these IGL's? Results? Since results wise Aleksi's G2 > Nexa G2 if you take into consideration that the competition was much better in 2022 than that late after online era 2021. Ence with Aleksib had better results than Snappi (major final & a Blast tournament win). OG has literally achieved nothing under Nexa, just a few 3-4th place finishes in Blast tournaments.
1 reply
- "Worse IGL than hooxi": Please. They replaced JackZ for a better rifler, and a bad egoist coach for a new one. They 100% downgraded on their IGL when hooxi joined.
- "ENCE got a better igl in snappi": ENCE from rank ~200 to rank 3 in a year with Aleksib. Highest ranking for an all Finnish squad. Their international squad peeked at rank 2 for a week, so I wouldn't say they are doing any better because of Snappi, but because of the fact that they can build their whole team easier with an international roster. Still not any more successful than the Finnish roster when it comes to winning titles
- "G2 got a worse igl than nexa": 100% agree. He's called hooxi
- "every single one of those teams are better without aleksi": 100% disagree. Every one of these teams would be better with Aleksib in them
With G2, it was mainly XTQZZ not wanting to change the team's playstyle to allow for aleksiB to have more control and use his system. XTQZZ let the power get to his head before, and I was so happy that G2 and the CSGO team decided to drop him when they got clapped in the 1 event - I forgot what it was because it was several months ago.
it's the fact that people are doing so much mental gymnastics to explain how he is a good igl despite having no results in a decent OG squad, superstar G2 and he made NiP somehow even less consistent than before
as for his notable placements, he made two finals in that period, one single handedly carried by m0NESY where Aleksi's style was exposed so hard that they never placed since, and the other was New York online where he got outcalled by...NiKo...who was playing in a dead team 2 days before going to G2

1 reply
NIP is actually more organized ever since they picked up aleskiB. They don't have the best results right now, but honestly, if they keep him around and actually stop making roster changes, they'll actually have a chance to make podium placements at events.
What should have that OG team achieve under Aleksi? They had valde who we see now in Ence is pretty underwhelming, they had mantuu who was rifler before he joined as the awp and is still not picked by any team after being on the bench for so long in OG (or might be already free agent), they had the danish niko who also isn't in any team after OG and is pretty bad, they also had NBK (pretty washed tbh) and ISSAA who had to play with super high ping in the online era and also isn't in a team for a long time after OG. They still got to top6 in the ranking at best which imo is pretty good considering the players. How is that roster in any way decent?
Sure G2 was a bit of a failure but they still had Kato finals appearance where they barely lost all 3 maps so basically just a few rounds away from winning 3-0, EPL doesn't count since Aleksi was out for covid and after that it was legends stage in major, 5-6th in Dallas, 3-4th in Blast and probably the biggest failure 9-12th in Cologne. Sure not great results but not absolutely terrible either.
NIP it's hard to say since they have still played so little with Aleksi and now they just got a new roster and a stand-in. They still did get to the legends stage of the major and were one round away from beating Faze 2-0 and going to the final of the Fall Finals.
"Decent OG"... no. It was not decent. They had a cheap team that was never built to contend for big titles. They managed to be a pretty consistent top 10 team though, which is a job well done given the roster.
"Superstar G2" ... the fact that Aleksib gets the blame for XTQZZZ's bullshit, and the fact that no real IGL can ever work with egoist diva NiKo, is pretty rough.
About NiP being "less consistent than before"... What do you expect from a team in a rebuild phase? Instant success? Get over yourself.

I used to be anti-alekib cuz i was annoyed by his supporters for some reason.
Now a days his supporters are pretty down to earth but his haters are really fkn annoying.
Aleksi aint the best IGL in the world but i cant understand why people blame him for Kaos in Pyjamas not winning agaisnt top 5 teams. I feel bad for him (and the rest of the NiP roster tbh) atm, they can never just play the game together and try to improve, always some shit happening.

I'm pretty sure it's NIP management making the CSGO roster changes. If they actually kept people instead of rotating 1-2 players every like...6-10 months, then they'd have consistently "decent" results. Also, the fact that they let someone like device sit on the bench, leaving the entire CSGO roster to have the expectation that he'd be coming back, was bad on their part. They should've let device go sooner so the CSGO team could actually practice with a 5th player they knew would be around for at least a year.

I suppose, but after so many months of him not doing much, I feel like they should've checked in on him to see if he still wanted to play with NIP. There's no point in keeping a pro player around if they don't like the team anymore because that will just ruin peoples' motivation and the whole atmosphere. Sometimes, it's just better to cut your losses and let everybody go their separate ways.

But still decided to take the time to comment for some reason
He's overhyped, he's a good IGL but not galaxy brain some people are making him out to be. He should have been given more time on G2 and I'm confident he Just got in to the groove with the team since he had to fully Change his style when he came to the squad. G2 is winning now but I'm still salty Aleksi left when he did I think he had much more to offer
7 replies
Way aleksi works with too many rounds is playing without info and not being flexible.
I 100% understand why the core trio of G2 is not willing to play like that - because they are great players who understand that you cannot win like that, not consistently.
monesy was way back with him, yet with Hooxi monesy is likely to be top 3 player 2023. Just because Hooxi enabled him.
I think Aleksi is stuck in the Astralis era where a lot of things were pre-determined. Now CS is way more reactive and if you got no info then you ain't got the winning conditions going your way.
You either evolve with the rest or you are left behind.
I don't think he has anything to compare to best IGL's, he's just way below that.
1 reply
I Like Hooxi he's great for G2, and I think that you're correct about Aleksi style of calling. Just can't shake the feeling that he had more to offer in G2. Idk Hope he had more succes in NIP that he adapts more ti the current meta bc tier 1 cs is starved of decent IGLs
Would have actually been really interesting to see how good G2 could have gotten with Aleksi instead of hooxi since already the change from Jackz to JKS probably had a huge impact on the team's performances since even though I like Jackz he is really washed up and can't even perform in tier2. Also Aleksi working with Swani instead of XTQZZZ could have made G2 better.
Since Aleksi wants a lot of structure I think he probably needs quite a lot of time in a team with the same players to fully show how good his system is, in G2 he got only one season and in NIP he had just few tournaments which NIP did pretty good in and now again he has couple of new players.
4 replies
I 100% agree with your last statement in your first paragraph. XTQZZ let the power of being a coach get to his head, so he didn't even want to try giving any sort of freedom to aleksiB and use his system for a change. XTQZZ was a good coach, but got worse towards the last few months he spent with G2. He's a dictator and wants things to go his way on the team. Thinking as if his word was the way all the time (a 1 way street as I like call it) is so bad for a CSGO pro team.
2 replies
Yeah, he even left because he felt he didn't have enough power over the team iirc. This might be what's happening in Navi as well, blade is also a coach that wants a lot of power over the team and he might be restricting electronic a bit too much which causes friction inside the team. Just speculating ofc.
1 reply
RIP. It's a shame that things like this always happen. XTQZZ was a good coache and so is b1ad3, but when one becomes power hungry, we all know that usually doesn't end well.
Niko and Aleksi had a really good Thing going, they had overlaping roles they entried as a duo sometimes and at the time they were probably the Best banana duo on inferno. Ther weak spot was the A site and by adding jks instead of Jackz the team structure really good better, also on maps Like dust2 (irelevant now but the point still stands) jks stood out as a B anchor and won them a few round as well, he directly sloted over Jackz in a couple of maps and was a Huge improvement, the only map I think G2 were better with Jackz over jks imo is Vertigo since he and Hunter really had the tendency to take over the map. At the time a dubble switch - Jackz and - Aleksi did'nt make sence to me bc you're ruining the team structure fully with such a Huge rotation. I'm not 100% sure but I think they got a New mentl coach as well. I Love Hooxi and I think he is a great fit for the team and a really great person, but I also think Aleksi had more to offer at the time
Prolly it's just that he has alot of loud fans who cope alot which tilts people who dont like him into making bait/hate threads and thats when the fans eat the baits and get tilted so its just a circle of baiting and tilting. You could also argue that he's over hyped, obviously he isn't Karrigan or Gla1ve but then again, it took Karrigan 10 years to win a major so :D
Aleksi for sure gets the most unjust hate on this site. I guess it became a meme to hate on him for some reason, which is kind random since he's a nice guy + overall decent aimer for an IGL.
2 replies
So it's butthurt G2 fans then.
He was pretty good in OG considering how bad/mediocre the players were and in G2 he had quite a small amount of time and the team obviously had more issues than just Aleksi since they also removed Jackz and even the coach wanted to leave. Can't confidently say NIP has underperformed
2 main reasons why he is disliked:
-Got hyped and deemed a genius quite early. In the end the disapointment is quite high and people get annoyed by those who deny the fact.
- He is outdated as a macro IGL he is a decent micro manager but a bad strategist on a macro point.
And personnaly it's annoying to see players getting insulted for free, but it's even more annoying to see people being too delusional about a player, and Alexisb defenders are one of the most annoying when it comes to being delusional.
To me he is a good T2 IGL for his good micro management talent but that's it
they are jealous because he is too handsome
4 replies
I don't think he should have gotten any notable results with that OG team considering the players he had so bit unfair to judge him for that imo. Also hooxi didn't have notable results with G2 before the very last tournament of the year and he had JKS who is miles better than Jackz and also a m0nesy with a full year of experience in tier1 & English comms

Don't gamble stack and lose every round because sites are too weak or gamble stack and only lose 90% of the rounds because once in a while you might gamble correctly and also click enough heads to not still lose. They were playing 3 on B like half the rounds and still Vitality busted it open multiple times. At some point the IGL just doesn't have much options.
1 reply
Well, I get your point, but I just dont think its a good way to go about it.
Round 2 they lose vs a force buy bc of aleksi peaking for no reason then calls them to gamble stack A when the only info they have is B. I guess thats a valid call since saving is a decent option, but still his fault that the round was lost.
Round 3 they stay 3 B when they are a man up. Just a bad call in every situation with no info. Then for some reason trying to retake 3v3 with no kit and worse weapons. Another bad call.
Round 4 its eco bc they didnt save r3. Loss.
Round 5: playing 2B 3A and wins the round.
Round 6: Weird round, saved by rez. Unlucky aleksi mistake almost lost them the round.
Round 7: Eco win
Round 8: Aleksib mollo lost the round
Round 9: Gamble stack 3B, Vit went A and won.
Round 10: Headtrick lost round, poor B utility, aleksi in spawn tossing nades. Aleksi knife out and lost a free m4 save.
Round 11: eco loss
Round 12: Good round from aleksi, 2 early kills. Round win
Round 13: Playing 4 A at the start, but gets early info so a lucky midpush timing wins the round.
Round 14: Poor banan defense on a 3 man B start.
Round 15: Bad weapons, played 3 B and lost eventho they went B.
I think way too many of these rounds was lost due to Aleksi. I think he have been good lately, but this was a sad prefromance from him, both induvidually and IGL wise.

I'm in between, I've never loved him but since he is the only Finnish player in tier1 ofc I hope he will do well and that he gets well treated. Not sure why some Finnish people hate him since I don't remember him ever doing or saying anything that bad, maybe the way things ended with Ence divided people. If I wanted one Finnish player to succeed it would be Allu even if he was in big part responsible for kicking Aleksi and ruining the Finnish Ence

He is really bad mechanically + it’s clear he has little to no strategic depth as an IGL. Also doesn’t seem to create a positive mental environment for his players
He gets hate because of his delusional fans. If something good happens it is because of aleksib; if something bad happens it is because of his teammates. I don't even think he is a bad igl but if you hype him up so much he is being setup to fail.

bumbohole. chat a bag a fuckry eh? aleksib vex uno
he brings shitty atmosphere to every team he joins, just look at the difference between g2 with aleksib then g2 with hooxi and am not talking about results look at their mood they are smiling and laughing every game
it also seems like he complicates the simplest of things with his "big brain"
Cause no matter who he plays with he is lacking results apart from the ENCE run
2 replies
He is famous for overcomplicated situations and out calling himself, he hasn't adapted since 2019 and it shows. Having all aim no brain is a thing of the past in good teams and people figure it out so easily. He isn't able to utilize awpers at all, his game plan is so structured and people cant play with individual skill/intuition. Allu did semi-decent because he didn't listen to Aleksi and awpers always had better ratings after he left, Monesy went from 1.05 avg rating to 1.2 after Aleksi left. Aleksi also has bad attitude, Boombla, Hooxi, Zeus, Karrigan none of which are particular highlights in terms of mechanics always keep attitude high and allows their players to flourish aside from their calling. Aleksi always looks like he doesnt want to be there. Of course the most obvious example is G2, they picked up a player who literally cant shoot, every 1 in 10 games he has positive kd, he however, despite not being mechanically gifted has the gaul to tell his teammates what to do, he keeps attitudes high but has no fear of pointing out mistakes, blast comms literally showed him flamming jks for not giving info (even when Hooxi was 0-7) they ended up winning that particular match (but lost series unfortunately) and his presence is definitely felt, after every game and win all 4 players praise Hooxi despite him having the mechanics of a decoy. Thats the main difference I suppose.
