Luminosity wreck NiP; first in group A

30/3/2016 - 23:06

Luminosity are the first to advance to MLG Columbus quarter-finals following a very convincing 16-5 scoreline on Mirage versus NiP.

The start to the group A winners' match between Luminosity and NIP was truly back-and-forth, as the teams kept trading rounds one after another up until it was 3-3. Those rounds included Lincoln "⁠fnx⁠" Lau's and Adam "⁠friberg⁠" Friberg's triples in forcebuys, as well as Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David's 1-on-3 clutch.

Then NIP managed to pick up two in a row thanks to the economy reset as Terrorists, but more of fnx heroics (two doubles) tied it back up at 5-5. Luminosity pushed it to 7-5 with an eco and a 2-on-3 retake thrown in, and ended the half at 10-5 with a quad by fnx.

fnx ended up on 29 frags in 21 rounds

The second half saw fnx continue with brilliant play, as he helped his team win the second pistol round with a triple, saving a scary 1-on-3 attempt by Richard "⁠Xizt⁠" Landström.

Two comfortable anti-ecos afterwards the Brazilians executed a strategy on the B bombsite and with another double by fnx, they soon pushed the score to match point and finished NiP off at 16-5.

GG smelly monkeys

GeT_RekT

wow!

FNX AIMLOCK GOOGLE IT GUYS

At least top 2, maybe even top 1 of the major. So STRONK

Threat can't trade anything, no wonder GTR looks pisses

Nothing you can really do about it man. Nip had a real chance to win this major with threat in coach role but like Anders said he can't see what everyone is doing and has to concentrate in game too so his coaching/igling ability is diminished a lot. I am looking forward to seeing Nip with pyth and threat as coach next tournament.

So am I. Man I can't wait for DH malmo, everyone at their best!

I disagree with "Nip had a real chance to win this major with threat in coach role". They had shown good results online and had a slight chance but it wasn't considerable by any means. You would expect fnatic, Na'Vi, LG and probably Astralis to all fare better than NiP. Also I don't think NiP with Pyth would have won against LG here. Maybe a better scoreline, around 16-9/10 perhaps, but I don't see them winning that if Pyth could play.

I mean this was a drubbing, but nip isn't out yet. We might see how they fair against a navi, astralis, fnatic, and lg in bo3's still.

2016-03-31 00:17

You forget it's a best of one dude I agree that they might not have won but the randomizer chose one of LG's best maps. BO3 is a different story.

2016-03-31 07:17

Really a shame that NiP didn't trust themselves to beat Mouz and F3 to get through groups with Pyth, now they're gonna have to beat them anyway so why not do it with Pyth instead of Threat?

pyth didnt get the visum to fly to america so nip had to replace him

yeah its such a shame...fucking USA all they can do is Terorize another Nations

Yeh not like it's Pyth's fault or anything, considering all the other Swedes got there fine

2016-03-30 23:14

as if they would have beaten F3 with 4 players

Doesn't matter dude, they would only have to beat Mouz in the loser's match and then play F3 again in the 2nd place decider

as if they would beat mouz with only 4 players, lol.

I'm not going to reply after this because I think you're trolling but Pyth arrived after the F3 game, he could have played vs Mouz

2016-03-30 23:15

NO. There can't be any rooster changes after the major starts.

Guess I'll add Portugal to the list of retarded countries

2016-03-31 00:12

Guess you will need to learn some english, because your phrase construction is just atrocious, making it barely intelligible

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD GET MORE MAD

Why should i get mad ? its doesnt affect me at all oO Its just for the Viewer this is kinda retarded you expect both to be in their best Lineup. yet one Team has to play with a Standin because USA is so scared to give a Swede a Visa cuz he made a Mistake in the Past i guess after all i get mad a little bit hate USA.. dumb Nation

i dont think that you are a viewer. i think you are a NIP fanboy!

more like a fan of good CS im a fnatic hater thats about it.

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

is this all you can say ? guess im done with you bb

Just ignore the kid, mate.

2016-03-30 23:32

I would say "smart Adolf", but I guess it's too strong. Please tell me something bad about Germany so I can use, thank you!

2016-03-31 08:15

GG WP! I was really afraid NiP would upset LG, glady it didn't happen (even though I like NiP). Sad thing pyth couldn't play, it would have been closer if he had played. NiP vs mousesports will be a good game, but I think mouz wins.

what do you expect ? you cannot win a 4v5 at this level

Yes, I agree with you. But LG didn't look very strong vs mouz and I'm always afraid of f0rest and get_right... but in the end pyth would have made a difference for NiP.

if chrisj shows up. niko is godly, but as chrisj goes, mouz goes against nip I think.

One thing I don't get with this new NiP-lineup is that GeT_RiGhT is OFTEN the first/second man running into a site while attacking.. GeT_RiGhT is one of a kind when it comes to clutch-situations because of his thinking. Just let threat run in first and friberg/xizt as second. And with pyth I'm sure it would have been a much better game. GGWP LG!

pyth for sure would make that game closer, at least. Sad he couldn't play... =/

fnx man... uff... what a performance! I think he deserves his nickname FENIX; he literally just rose from the ashes.

GG monkeys

13 rounds in a row for LG. Just not as good as their 15 or 16 in a row against Astralis (then TSM) on overpass.

ez af nip what a joke xD

why? they play 5v4 ?

anyway..Luminosity just another level.

retarded mental 4 x5 ? stfu noob no excuses lg raped nip ez

hes right actually, threat is not a pro player,in fact he is not even a csgo player, he is the coach, so they are 4v5 right now

Sorry i dont read monkey language, here take a banana.

2016-03-31 00:41

If pyth was there, would've been 16-12 Nip

gg wp

Respect NIP, Good Game. LG steped up again and made themselves through quarter-finals. I'm speechlessly proud of them. Fnatic will not be that brick wall again.

+1 dude as a NiP fan i really respect you and the Luminosity fans for not being like assholes..ggwp

FNATIC > LG > WORLD

Luminosity GODS, so ez and clean!!!

4v5 :(

what is the RATING column? how is it calculated?

rofl wreckt

gooooo LG<3

Ez LG

Not like this

who cares? turkish players=n1

fnx kd 2.2 GOD

Congrats to NiP for putting up a fight on T side! But Luminosity was unplayable when they got their economy rolling! Luminosity undisputed top 2/3 right now!

thanks man :)

agreed, nip had a good mid attack, but with LG seeing it 10 times and getting some guns, they stopped it.

dumpstered Lol

How can someone drop 29 bombs in 21 rounds? That's insane.

FNX BEAST legend!
