I just realised VP

must be a nightmare for fast paced international teams like G2, FaZe you like have to essentially hold your defaults for FaZe (which are one of the best) that makes you use adjustments, G2 which is very reliant on conditioning and also has decent defaults. this makes two teams try everything from essentially even if it means quite desperate plays.

About that i don't know, but i know they will be pain in the ass even if individuals are popping off. Imagine having to wait entire minute for an execute and be still uncertain which side will be hit.

Lol that’s exactly what went down today for sure. Faze were confused as fck about what bombsite they were going to even in the last 12 seconds

yeah and you must realise that it will be even worse for G2 because they have setplays on conditionings esp on Ancient i've see certain patterns in Cologne it was quite visible and even NiKo talked about it. They also have certain timings based responses They will be literally unavailable on the VP match
2023-08-18 00:59
If FaZe nearly beat VP than G2 with NiKo in form most certainly will beat them, it would take some insane choke of huge proportions for G2 to lose to vp

You realize niko is the king of choke right? They literally call him choko now because of it

nuke deagle inccident
2023-08-18 11:04
Yeah but you must consider the fact that it took everything for FaZe to even be close and they won essentially the first map thanks to the fact of that deagle call that was called by karrigan & neo. Without it FaZe would've lost the map probably and it would've been 2-0 for VP and their playstyle just doesn't fit what g2 and faze plays its like complete opposite with you unable to even take anything.

xd bro. I'm an entry for t and for ct quite a lot of differences from map to map. And im a caller so we play really long rounds all the time. 4v4 situations is where we are at our best. I just feel those gaps along my teammates, good communication helps really much. And we also save a lot hah, kind of jame style. I remember one game where we won 16-14 but nobody in our team had more than 11 deaths. I guess we tilted our opponents soo much that day, because they couldn't help but look at their ugly stats. Jame style is fun to play actually but not to watch

I agree with u.Honestly i prefer winning than having good playstyle.Im the best in terms of winning round when the enemy has advantage and if team needs me to play agressive then i do it but i dont like it when its not needed.Especially if i give info that there is 3 on B and we have no flashes.At the 30 round i like to call smth different-prob a fast A through middle with me holding A push.Im like that player who plays defensive but has good aim.

tbh i'm quite chill too i used to be very mald and tilted at first when played CS and then even when i was losing and playing out of my possibilities and my teammates one (essentially i was swapping spots with anchors on A and B and rotators) as best as i can i still essentially was like meh because i just acknowledge'd there's only so much a person can do and screaming won't help.

I'm tilted mostly if i fail smth that led to lost round or smth especially with AWP. Especially when i leave my beloved B for a second to my teammates and B is a free site for enemy coz they dont defend it correctly(coz of my defensive playstyle it's tough to enter B).I'm B anchor who always changes positions every single round and plays differently.I began playing for myself coz why not build a confidence for urself first.

i always think big is very similar to vp( or the original avangar roster), focused on their teamplay and can punch above their weight. but with less firepower, less saving and less mindgaming
2023-08-18 01:13
the desk was talking about it as well. They've said along the lines of how G2 probably wants to face Faze rather than VP. Boring team but hey, if it works it works.

they just should take yekindar back and put him to entry fragger role. ez top5 for vp. they have the best igl in game rn
2023-08-18 00:57
4 replies
Vp with yekindar back then was too reliant on yekindar getting picks/opening. Once yekindar died or have an off game the the team will struggle. And this is the style yekindar choose to play and vp supported him. So it wont be much different if yekindar come back The current flit or fame creeping (albeit very slow) to create opening or gathering info suit vp better and make them not too reliant on one player

Must be hard for yekindar just started being igl Imagine how the confidence going after their team recent results And maybe the supporting staffs not as good as when he was in vp system(dastan and jame have been together for around 6 years, and if im not mistaken they also bring their analyst from avangar too)

I'm just saying VP might make it close because not only they are back to slow style from the before and in major. They also have firepower upgrade and their playstyle might be annoying for G2 and FaZe in my opinion which like faster pace of game and sometimes second guess themselves

Yes, I'd imagine there will be more money thrown around, either way there is less time to mess about in the games with mr13, I hope we can have a happy medium in removing a lot of incentive to save, I've been watching since 2004, I'm pretty fed up with bo3s that take 3 hours to complete.

Anything to make the pro games shorter, 3 hours for bo3's is a sick joke, I personally would reduce the timeouts and breaks between halfs and maps by at least half, that would be a good start.

they would risk more but they would still play with time like they do atm.
2023-08-18 20:11
I mean, it's working for VP (obviously), but man ...... THEY ARE SOOO BORING. Can't stand watching a full map while VP is playing.

It's really fucking hard to play aggressive style based CS against them and sometimes you have to play off the blinds with VP. If you push there 50-60% chance they will hold an angle and not even execute off that.

Using the resources you have available to you is only prudent, time is one of them.

They are quite strong individually, but i would say there are some teams like Heroic(not in form now), Virtus.pro that are really tactically based ones and are so weird with their styles.
