Bubzkji joins HLTV Confirmed for rostermania tier list, BLAST impressions, new CS2 maps, Major dates

HLTV Confirmed will go live at 20:30 with the ultimate tier list of all off-season changes and early impressions from the new rosters at BLAST.

Former professional player turned pundit Lucas "⁠Bubzkji⁠" Andersen will guest star in the next episode of HLTV Confirmed, which will revolve around the debuting teams at the BLAST Premier Fall Groups and a cap-off on the massive silly season period.

I would like to watch it, but I'm going to the cinema to see the new Barbie movie with my gf. Maybe I will catch up in the halftime though, because the movie starts at 19:00. Cheers

Many hate vertigo because their favourite team does not play or bad on it i.e Faze, G2, Navi. Vertigo best map in the pool - flair!

itll be so much better in cs2 with no one way smokes. such an overhated map for no reason

No one way smokes and bullet holes should improve Vertigo's experience. Hopefully it will be back in competitive map pool.

Why this guys is not in a team? He was so good before astralis started to put him on a bench.

Because he retired. I know many people have a vendetta against Astralis for ruining his chances and I don't completely discard that but Astralis didn't essentially stop him from playing again , ever . He chose not to .

Yes, you're right. Actually I forgot that it was his decision. Sad, I guess he has lots of potential

Why bring in a retired dude that hasn’t been relevant in ages? Call me instead and we can have a discussion on the strong Nepalese scene that is highly likely to dominate CS2.

i dont want to be rude, but what is going on with the last episodes of HLTV confirmed, it kinda feels like these guys are seriously depressed or something.
