2015-08-04 04:19

*sarcasm* nice "joke". You feel better about yourself because you used an overused "joke" in an attempt to garner a few chuckles because you can't find any other way to do so?

2015-08-04 05:47

I wasn't really reading what I wrote. When I saw the C9 guys in the USA roster, I immediately assumed NA because people usually don't differentiate USA from CA (unlike how they make a difference between Mexico and Central America from the rest of NA) and they just call it NA. I don't look at players from "NA" (CA+USA) rosters and put them into the groups of "Canada" and "USA". Except for shroud cuz I am a fanboy.

2015-08-04 05:44

ee?

2015-08-03 20:55

Mexiwho?

i mean, he's like almost up with the top NA players and he isnt invited to represent the US or whatever. wtf, this is his chance to play some competitive cs again

2015-08-03 23:17

Did you see the game where he was playing as a standin for Liquid. He pretty much carrying if I remember correctly. Dude so young too :( He would be so great if he hadn't been banned

2015-08-03 23:40

he isnt banned from these tournaments, only from valve sponsored tournaments if i remember correctly. so i think he should play..

2015-08-04 00:17

I know he isn't banned from this torney. But he got banned from Cevo,ESEA and faceit too if I recall. And I meant that he'd be great if he could play for a team :)

2015-08-04 00:42

2015-08-03 22:09

Emmalee "EMUHLEET" Powe Benita "bENITA" Novshadian Alright stunna and buyaka your credibility has been completely thrown out the fucking window. You could be giving these leftover roster spots to rising stars to help their esports "careers" take off, but nope you're wasting them on female gamers.

2015-08-03 21:34

2015-08-03 22:49

Wut? If you are mad about that you should also be mad that all the other best NA players are there, and those girls are some of the best.

2015-08-04 13:40

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

2015-08-03 21:37

Canada leaves out Cath? Lex is on the team...worst player for his team. So this really isn't an allstar type of deal with some of these players.

usa roster fuckin army company

2015-08-03 21:49

ez for Amanda "rain" Smith

2015-08-03 21:50

I dont get these rosters. No elige or ptr? - trash can girl players + someone useful. Sweden is gonna trek

2015-08-03 21:55

Why no mOE. It would have been fun to see him at LAN.

hot rain hot

2015-08-03 22:00

Joel "MexicanoAlAtaque" Ontiveros ,hahahhahah that name

2015-08-03 22:03

Interesting with token girls on the rosters. Maybe this will create pressure on pronax to have them on the swedish roster as well. Exciting times, exciting times. Anyways usa-canada will be interesting games for sure and hopefully Mexico can put up at least some resistance.
