G2 lucky. FaZe just got smoked on ancient by 4 guys. One of G2's best players was silent. FaZe was lucky m0nesy didn't show up, and still couldn't beat G2.
that is true, but if u know C9 is terrible right now, why even say Faze 2-0's as if it's impressive? Faze isn't washed though. G2 just better. Faze would prob win that match against any other team rn.
I've never felt this helpless against a team since FaZe vs NaVi in Blast Springs Finals last year, literally all 5 G2 players on fire, with the addition of perfect utility and teamwork. How can anyone stop G2, seriously? Even when FaZe was dominating, they weren't this one-sided....
Not getting much duels on his side? He just finished Ancient 5/16, the most deaths and least kills on G2's side. He was getting duels, but just kept on losing them
niko got dominated outside by rain on Nuke and monesy had a pretty bad series. and yet G2 STILL managed to 2-0 Faze. That's insane. G2 is honestly looking like the best team right now.
There is no new "meta" right now, the team with the best synergy will always be at the top at any time, and that Astralis's synergy back then was the best I've ever seen in any of csgo team eras, in the past and currently.
A little bit of both.
G2 are winning all of the aim-duels and FaZe keep choking rounds they really should be winning on paper.
Still a good match, though.
G2 are good, at least started good thanks to jks being awoke
Faze are also good but not as good as Faze in the first half of the year or everyone has already adapted to their playstyle
It is being seen that Faze was the most benefited team last year by far. The war ousted Navi. G2, Astralis, Vitality under reconstruction. Rain is sometimes a sack and Broky would have a hard time putting him in the top 10 of AWPs. They need a pure AWP.
No, they need to stop throwing leads. 2V4, 2V5, 3V5. G2 never played as a team, it was always 3 of them alive but faze managed to die always. Rain's timing on nuke was the description of the whole game.
