VG beat NiP for MSI Beat it spot

29/9/2013 - 23:50

VeryGames defeated Ninjas in Pyjamas to secure the first European spot at the MSI Beat it World Finals in China in November.

It took VeryGames 16 matches to beat NiP, but they finally did it: the French giants, one of the most successful teams in the history of CS:Source, outdid their CS:GO arch-rivals in the last-four stage of the MSI Beat it! 2013 European Finals.

It was a one-sided game, which will come as a shock to only a few people, given NiP's recent online results (14-16 defeat to k1ck and close victories against Astana Dragons and CPLAY).

On de_inferno_se, neither side really stood out in the first half as VeryGames picked up a narrow 8-7 lead at the break. However, in the second half the French side were simply too hot to handle, giving their opponent no chance as they walked away with a 16-8 victory.

16th time was the charm for VeryGames

The map that followed was de_mirage_ce, where VG picked up a comfortable 10-5 lead while playing on the CT side. NiP always looked to be on the back foot and they had little chance against the Frenchmen, who ran out 16-7 victors to assure themselves of a place at the MSI Beat it Finals in China.

Never said VG will ;)

2013-09-30 17:45

Finally!

At last

Not sure they will enjoy the jet lag so much when they will be back from china to directly go to sweden ;) But still it's a victory against NiP and this is priceless to build a momentum.

2013-09-30 00:04

at least when i was in china i didnt have exhausting experience at all, and had SEC in Poland the next day, but mby it's just me. anyway my point is that they should be on a perfectly normal state at dreamhack and if they fail, "jetlag" would just be an excuse :p

Do you even understand the time difference between China and France? Are you retarded of course you can have jetlag for 3-4 days. It all depends on the person, just because it didn't happen to you doesn't mean it doesn't to other people. "I bet you a saucer" typical retard comment, you just make yourself look like a fucking retard by saying that.

2013-09-30 20:15

i think by taking the bait makes you look like "a fucking retard" :P and yes i understand the time difference between china and france since it's +-1 compared to china and poland. and no, you can't have jetlag for 3-4 days. you can fix it in 1 day by staying awake a few hours longer than usually x)

2013-09-30 20:33

You are too stupid to understand. Please kill yourself.

2013-09-30 13:59

VG!!! <3

68% ex6tenz hs percentage, Impressive!!!.

2013-09-30 00:17

Nothing impressive about a high hs percentage if you are the bottom score.

2013-09-30 00:25

Dude, he is the IGL (in game leader) he shouldnt top the scoreboard, besides you should know he's work from the team. He makes sure everyones minds is "right" he makes sure the strats work. If u ask me I think he does more then anyone in VG. But thats just my opinion.

2013-09-30 09:35

+1 dude! BUT, he need to frag more for them to continue winning against top teams specially NiP. That's the 1 problem i saw why they can't defeat NiP for 16 meetings.

2013-09-30 14:02

Yeah, I know it's not a big deal to bottom score as IGL. It's not a big deal to keep a high hs percentage if you don't kill much, either.

2013-09-30 15:20

he had 31 kills, their top players nbk and scream had 16 and 13 more...he did kill a lot for IGL and his high % hs is nice

2013-10-01 13:36

His team won 32-15, and still he was barely positive. Calling that impressive is almost offensive.

2013-10-01 14:42

score doesnt really matter much (mostly only those extra eco rounds and low buy rounds), youre still up against forest and company. as long as igl can constantly frag against players like him he is doing his job great imo

2013-10-02 16:23

You went straight from "it was impressive" to "doesn't really matter much". I rest my case.

2013-10-02 16:45

score 32-15 doesnt really matter much, not number of kills :P

2013-10-02 20:12

Usually you're right, but Ex6 was behind till recently at this number, he clearly improved himself aimwise recently. And another exception is when one has few but crucial frags - not the case here I reckon.

2013-09-30 10:48

This result made dreamhack far more interesting :)

2013-09-30 00:18

Not really

2013-09-30 12:47

yes really

2013-09-30 13:28

2013-09-30 14:20

Yes really

2013-10-01 13:28

i dont think so. the result just prooved what everyone else suspected which is that nip players dont train much, my guess is that theyre bored of a bad competition

2013-10-01 13:38

nbk was a beast on mirage

An international event without NIP at it? AH MA GAWD?

2013-09-30 05:45

I'm happy for VG , they deserve a win. Everyone talks about Scream... But NBK's role was more important for me. gg I'm happy to see that NiP is not more that unbeatable team ! Hope that VG will prouve that on lan !

2013-09-30 01:18

Lol so less frags on NiP side!

2013-09-30 01:20

well nip are underperforming at the moment. which is absolutely understandable

2013-09-30 01:25

vg fucked.up.last matches aswell.with losses against kick.and alternate

2013-09-30 07:13

and that is understandable like #63 reason. hahaha. Dafuq! Too many guys can't accept what happen and just be excited for the next they'll meet.

2013-09-30 14:06

It was already 16-0 in wins, nip didnt care anymore cause they won the bigger picture huehuehue

2013-09-30 01:34

No, it's 15-1.

2013-09-30 03:51

Nip just gift VG slot for ESWC , cuz they already have spot

2013-09-30 01:57

its not ESWC

2013-09-30 02:02

but victory on that tourney giving slot on ESWC . or i talking something wrong !?..?!

2013-09-30 02:41

Do you even read? VeryGames defeated Ninjas in Pyjamas to secure the first European spot at the MSI Beat it World Finals in China in November.

2013-09-30 03:06

the first of many? will nip have more opportunities to get a spot? [ direct invite maybe? ]

2013-09-30 12:25

Well deserved! vG is a better team for team work!

lol ..not. maybe better team for fancy flashes and game exploits but teamwork? seriously? swedes (scandinavians for that matter) are masters in teamwork and that's a written fact. stop fancy ur mustache

that was too easy... (ô_ó) there must be something wrong

2013-09-30 03:11

All I can say is now could probably be the best time to replace s1 in NiP with Delpan... if NiP wants to have a chance in winning dat upcoming 100k...

2013-09-30 03:42

I would say that Delpan isnt the answer, but Olofm is. Cause Olofm > World

2013-09-30 04:48

olofm good but not best (jw best)

2013-09-30 13:29

Delpan isnt that good in GO as ppls think.Fast but inconsistent. If replacing someone would be a must thing, than I would take someone from n! (pyth,karrigan,spitfire)

2013-09-30 05:51

NiP are out towards this MSI beat it tournament. It will be VG + the winner from lemondogs/nfaculty.

2013-09-30 08:28

The NIP guys will never play with Delpan, because of Get_Right does not want to play with him. Tough i am not really sure why?!

2013-09-30 10:33

you never stop to amaze me with your retarded comments

2013-09-30 13:51

ATLAST!!!!!!!!!!! wooohooooo

2013-09-30 05:15

Lost deliberately! Since VG won't be able to afford the travel cost! So nice of NiP! <3 :3

2013-09-30 05:19

it's all included, msi pays all!

This loss hits hard in my opinion. NiP wont have a Chance to win the 10.000 Dollars at the Finals in China. But on the other side, this loss was a warning for NiP. They will practice hard now for sure. Just imagine they would lose the DHW. Don't wanna know the outcome of this...

2013-09-30 10:47

why the fuck would they start practicing any harder now? they've lost against teams as K!CK and that finnish team "I don't even know the name of", online. it's not like this loss was surprising, was it?

2013-09-30 15:27

it's surprising that they tend to lose more and more. With the upcoming big tournament it wouldn't be surprising that they would train more.

2013-09-30 15:36

No it's not teams are catching up. Yes of course, but most likely not because VG won an online match over them. And DHW is another reason to be even more careful about starts

2013-09-30 15:42

u so hater pls don't cry

2013-09-30 12:06

2013-09-30 12:33

everyone, cuz NiP wont attend on MSI which is global tournament:c

2013-09-30 13:26

and VG still won't manage to win DreamHack Winter which is the most important. simply walking into viking lands will get ur head smashed in (or in this case ur mustaches ripped off)

2013-09-30 15:31

it was an important match, they tried to win and fail

2013-09-30 13:52

VOD?

wp VG!

2013-09-30 13:40

SAUCERS

gg VG !

I don't think NiP were too bothered about this tourney. They've won virtually every CS:GO LAN ever. Another ~10k tourney isn't really much of a motivator for them in terms of either cash or prestige. They have nothing to prove at those LANs anymore really. Particularly with an 100k 1st prize pot at DH:W coming up. Haven't seen them as fired up about a LAN in a long time. NiP are going to be scary good at DH:W if you ask me.

2013-09-30 13:50

yeah 10k is nothing, sure

Its awful when ppl things NiP lost on purpose, when they did not. The travel to china isnt too bad. And where you know if there will be another MSI beat it , maybye winner of this 1 gets spot to there automatically.

lost on purpose surely isn't the right words here, however, did not play to their full potential, is.

2013-09-30 15:32

Well i could use ''Just wasnt their day'' ?

2013-09-30 15:38

Did you watch the game? It was such an obvious throw that it was funny. NiP are focusing all their effort on DH:W and don't want to deal with jetlag and mental fatigue before the tourney starts. Yes, 10k for NiP really isn't a big deal. It is for every org except AD (millionaire guy sponsoring) and NiP. (Won everything) 10k would just be another footnote for them.

2013-09-30 17:39

keep telling yourself that, if it can ease your pain.

2013-09-30 17:58

You're such a blind fanboy it's hilarious. I suppose you ignore the 1-15 record and a humiliating recent loss on LAN at Bucharest. All of a sudden VG are top1. Fucking retard.

2013-09-30 18:50

Did I say they were top 1 ?I don't even care about that victory, I'm not winning anything in this case, personally. What is pissing me off is those people thinking NiP did it on purpose, how stupid can you be...

2013-09-30 18:52

well done!

2013-09-30 14:00

Muahahah

2013-09-30 14:49

If you think about it, MSI Beat It is 3 days before Dreamhack Winter, and traveling from Sweden to China takes about 10 hours~, and China is 6:0 hours ahead of Sweden, so the potential for severe jetlag is there and that is a big threat. And then using strats and losing time for a good bootcamp are two other factors that you need to think about, and the $10,000 prize winnings for MSI Beat It covers the travel expenses and a little more but not much for six people that would go, so losing this match is a blessing in disguise or maybe even intentional.

Time will tell if your statement will manifest itself I for one don't believe in the jet lag bullshit however the training bootcamp thing you might have a point there.

2013-09-30 15:13

dreamhack.se/dhw13/esport/csgo/ fnatic.com/content/95681 No. It's 5 days before DH which is more than enough to get rid of the jet lag. Moreover, NiP is already used to travelling. It won't make any difference whatsoever for them if they have 10-12 hours jet lag. And if you remember, NiP had one busy month (April-May) in the summer this year where they went from one country to another and they still managed to get first place at all tournaments they attended. So, to say that they lost on purpose in order to avoid jet lag is a very bullshit excuse I must say.

2013-09-30 17:22

Would be pathetic for NiP if they don't make it into top 3 in DHW.

why does all of them have good chances to beat nip? the only potential threat im seeing here is AD, the rest? ..not really btw, after AD I'd say fnatic has a pretty good chance of beating NiP on LAN.

coL took a map from NiP @esealan, and they just joined coL (more motivation) and now they have 2 months to practice much as they can, why they wouldnt get a match against NiP? VG - Nip have always rolled VG on lan, but the score dsnt tell the full story, VG have always played bad against NiP but still they got so skilled players and when they have their A-Game i think they can beat NiP@lan. LD - Didnt u watch DH Bucharest, they played well and Delpan is getting to his level , i just think they can surprise any team.

OMG you are stupid... Only VG can beat NiP on lan ! Look at the score : 16-7 and 16-8 !! Do you think AD could do the same ? the answer is clearly no

finally.... COMPETITION! :) I like NiP, but it was getting quite boring that they simply won every match... Now it's getting more interesting to watch pro-games in my opinion :) gg VG
