"FaZe should sell their team", fnatic will go full Ukrainian, and is this the end for GamerLegion?
On this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno Jack and Sam assemble to discuss how utterly diabolical the teams in the first stage of the Major were. All of us at tldr thank our lord and saviour Jame that it is finally over.
Stage 2 is also previewed in the tasty form of a match simulator segment.

Chapters
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:05,000
Right, Jack?
Yo, what's up?
2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,480
So there's this old Danish dude,
right?
3
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:14,800
He's one of the best in game
leaders of all time, but he's
4
00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:19,640
like, he's kind of shit now.
It's not really been working for
5
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:24,600
him for a while.
And yeah, he's finally retired.
6
00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:27,120
Any idea who I might be talking
about?
7
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,120
Is Carrigan finally gone and my
of my prayers been answered?
8
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,400
Yeah, sadly not.
No mate, it's it's Glaive.
9
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,760
Glaive has retired from Counter
Strike.
10
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,960
Any thoughts on that?
I'd probably say too soon in
11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,760
terms of age, but maybe not too
soon in terms of career
12
00:00:44,760 --> 00:00:47,840
trajectory, Right.
Yeah.
13
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,920
And also like what what more is
he going to do, right?
14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,640
You know, he's he's had all the
big wins he's had the majors
15
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:56,880
he's had you didn't want a
Cologne, but you want a cat
16
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:01,440
though.
What else are you going to do?
17
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,960
You know what I mean?
He's he's coaching, right?
18
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,000
So they're still.
Well, exactly.
19
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,240
Yeah, it's but it's a weird
thing because I just I just
20
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:13,840
wrote the news light story about
him retiring and I sought it out
21
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:18,720
on that Legacy is a really hard
thing to judge because me and
22
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,040
you were doing it with Kerrigan
now, right.
23
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:24,080
And if you're this Fury run, we
were all doing it with Fallen,
24
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:30,760
where what, what do you, what do
you truly judge legacy on?
25
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:34,880
Do you judge legacy on someone's
peak or potentially the damage
26
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,360
that they did later on in their
career?
27
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,760
You know you can do that with
like electronic as well.
28
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,880
Yeah, but also like entirely
results or is it the impact you
29
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,200
leave, right, Because I'd say
like, even with fallen like
30
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,400
having like pre dysphoria, like
a decline in performance, I
31
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,640
think the impact he had on all
of Brazilian CS was was bigger
32
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:58,800
than his own achievements.
So what I mean so like the
33
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:05,680
legacy he leaves is not tied
definitely to results, whereas A
34
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,880
Carrigan right, I don't know
what what he's done, should we
35
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:11,480
say for the scene, and that's
not to discredit him, whereas
36
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,880
Glaive obviously, right, as we
know you know him, his shot has
37
00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:17,120
kind of re redefined the game.
They, they remade the matter to
38
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,560
this utility heavy sort of
system, right?
39
00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:26,760
And that's a legacy that the
last passed to your own results,
40
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,200
if that makes sense.
Yeah, absolutely.
41
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,920
I'd also like to say, just while
this is up, what the fuck is
42
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:38,880
going on with Dupree's hair in
that image?
43
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:44,160
Why is it that color?
Yeah, Blonde Dupree was a bit of
44
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:45,680
a looker, right?
I'm just looking at like, the
45
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:47,440
glow down this entire team has
had though.
46
00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:52,400
Like looking at Majestic
nowadays is not.
47
00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:56,480
He's not pretty.
Sorry, yeah, I mean device.
48
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,680
It's like he's just a pretty boy
though any and.
49
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,080
He's always an interest, isn't
he?
50
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,360
Well, he's not the greatest.
But like, that's not yeah, yeah,
51
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:08,920
it's not the point.
But yeah, Enclave before we move
52
00:03:08,920 --> 00:03:14,600
on, quite looking forward to him
becoming a coach because as you
53
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,080
know, time went on.
Sonic parted Australis,
54
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:21,680
Australis, you know, didn't get
any better in Glaze Final,
55
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,240
however long it was with them.
And then he went to ends and
56
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:30,200
then this wasn't exactly great.
But again, like, did he really
57
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,240
have the players either to be
great?
58
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:35,480
I'm not sure he did.
It was awful.
59
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:37,840
Towards the end of his stint he
had to put up with that Polish
60
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,080
team that we're never actually
that good and we were only good
61
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:43,560
at Vertigo.
For one event as well.
62
00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,000
For one event, yeah, but there
was always a conversation of
63
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,160
like, and it's happened to Sonic
as well in the inverse of it.
64
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:54,120
But it was always a conversation
of, you know, how good he's
65
00:03:54,120 --> 00:03:56,400
glave about Sonic.
Was it all just Sonic system
66
00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,280
like these type of things that
we'll never know because we
67
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,600
weren't there practicing with
them.
68
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:05,800
So it will be very intriguing to
see A what type of coach he is
69
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:10,800
and B how much success he has.
Yeah.
70
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,960
I think another thing we've
played though, is is he's kind
71
00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:18,000
of to a lesser degree, but in
the same sort of Carrigan camp
72
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:24,000
as like he's quite a mid roundy
in game leader, right, Not to
73
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,960
the degree that Carrigan is
right with the whole system is
74
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,880
basically like do the default
and see what happens.
75
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,320
But you know, it's it's it's how
much impact can you have when
76
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:33,640
you're already talking in freeze
time, right.
77
00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:37,360
But I think someone, someone
with a mind like his for the
78
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:40,840
game, obviously be a be a be a
huge benefit to to a lot of
79
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,080
team, but I'm curious to see
where he ends up.
80
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:50,600
Honestly I think like I could
see him going to to OG possibly
81
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,320
could be a slight step down for
him though.
82
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,880
Who?
Is that coach?
83
00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:58,240
I think it's Lambert, the French
dude.
84
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:03,520
Oh yeah, yeah, no, it is.
There's another team I was
85
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:08,480
thinking of but but they've gone
from my head. 100 thieves don't
86
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,640
actually have a coach.
Not yet.
87
00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:17,040
I think that's the name they.
'D be interested in looking up
88
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:18,960
potentially.
Charlie's just looking.
89
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:21,200
Do you know who I would actually
get if I was 100 fees?
90
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:23,160
Tell me.
Zip.
91
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,840
You reckon?
Well, he's been the assistant
92
00:05:27,840 --> 00:05:30,440
coach of Mouse for a while and
all the Mouse players have like
93
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:33,160
really good things to say about
him and him.
94
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:36,040
And.
What he actually does to help
95
00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:39,360
them as an assistant coach.
So at some point he's got it.
96
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,560
He's got to take the leap.
Heroic.
97
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:44,920
That was my that was my
suggestion.
98
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:47,520
Get him on the new heroic.
Yeah, yeah.
99
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,600
Because obviously the bench
Linus, it seems like they're
100
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,480
benching youngster as well.
They're going to have a little
101
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,160
bit.
Of a rebuild.
102
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,000
They back Toby's a little bit,
whatever his name is,
103
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,480
considering they've just got
prison in which we're.
104
00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,840
Not going to whatever his name
is, it's quite funny, but.
105
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:07,200
Yeah, heroic of Bench the
engineer in order to bring in
106
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,240
prison.
Yeah, that's the thing that's
107
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,920
happened.
Anyway, Charlie, we're on the
108
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:14,760
fucking intro.
We've got a major to talk about,
109
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,440
right, Jack?
There's a fucking major on and
110
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,840
isn't.
It good Merry.
111
00:06:29,840 --> 00:06:32,160
Come on.
Because it was fucking stage 1.
112
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:36,400
Fucking awful can.
We can we start calling this the
113
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,800
minor?
That's a really good name for
114
00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,920
this part of the event.
Yeah, you'd like minors being
115
00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,440
mentioned, wouldn't you?
What?
116
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,520
What an insane thing to say on
the on the Internet itself.
117
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,600
I'm.
Sorry, no, but seriously though,
118
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:54,640
like before we actually get into
the the major itself, I fucking
119
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,800
hate stage 1.
I really do hate stage 1.
120
00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:00,680
Like well.
Are your pickups alive?
121
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,480
Because mine are.
Yeah, mine are too.
122
00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,040
OK, so it's not a results based
hatred, it's.
123
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,120
Just no, no rubbish.
It's, it's like, it's like with
124
00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:12,040
the World Cup going from 32
teams to 48 teams, right?
125
00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:14,880
And it, it, yeah, we already had
it with the Challenger stage
126
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:17,280
taking it from 16 to 24 and all
this shit.
127
00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,120
All it is is a, it's a dilution
of the competition.
128
00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,160
Like the, the standard of CS
that we've watched for the past
129
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:26,720
four days has been dog shit.
It's been really fucking poor.
130
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,360
I don't even want to jump to any
teams.
131
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:34,440
We'll get to them all, I'm sure.
But the standard, the CS for
132
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:39,680
some of the names in this stage
as well, appalling, abhorrent,
133
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,800
whatever you want to use, it was
fucking dog.
134
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:47,000
So yeah, yeah, there's which
we'll get to also look quite
135
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,200
good.
But as they should at this level
136
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,040
of competition, it it does start
at the major.
137
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:54,120
Obviously it's, you know, a
benefit to have more stickers in
138
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:56,680
the game and it's a better try
more opportunity for teams and
139
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,640
players, which is obviously
good.
140
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:02,480
But it does mean the event a
little bit less special.
141
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:07,400
I'd say it it.
Goes on too long and like, I
142
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:10,040
mean, we've, we've got the
fucking, we've got the team list
143
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:14,080
here now.
Like I know phase have gone
144
00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,720
through by the skin and the
teeth and we're going to talk
145
00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,920
about them in a bit.
Oh yes, we are.
146
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,240
Just look at the field, man.
Major shouldn't begin with this.
147
00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:26,040
Like Faring tweeted earlier that
when majors were 16 teams, the
148
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,240
best team in the world would
play in the first one or two
149
00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:30,560
days.
How many of the teams that have
150
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:33,760
gone through, and we're not
going to look at them just yet,
151
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:40,960
but of the eight teams that have
gone through, yes, one or two,
152
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,400
guaranteed we'll go through to
the next stage because that's
153
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,040
just how majors are.
It is like it's always that way.
154
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,880
Yeah, there's there are some
some bad teams in the stage too,
155
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,400
sure.
But but like, none of the names
156
00:08:53,400 --> 00:08:56,880
here blow me away really as a as
a fan of some of them as well.
157
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:03,600
If if, if Stage 1 isn't made-up
of teams that we think like, you
158
00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,320
know, most of them that go
through can go to stage 3,
159
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,320
what's the point?
Other than it just being more
160
00:09:09,320 --> 00:09:12,320
ways for Valve to make money
which doesn't go back into the
161
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:15,280
game like.
Yeah.
162
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,840
I mean, let's talk about this on
the price discussion, right,
163
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,840
But.
Yeah, and you can read about it
164
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:22,920
in this week's Deep Dive, but.
Beautiful plug.
165
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:24,520
Beautiful plug.
Yeah, thanks mate.
166
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:30,880
But like the major isn't special
because OK, is it?
167
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:35,080
Here's a Here's a fun thing that
I looked at earlier.
168
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:41,000
There are 7 Tier 1 tournaments
before the IEM Cologne Major.
169
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,120
How many of those 7 tournaments
have millions?
170
00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:47,200
Of dollars or.
More prize pools.
171
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,200
I want to minus out whatever the
blast 1 is, so I'd say 65 or 6.
172
00:09:54,840 --> 00:10:00,920
7. 6-7 so all 7 do.
All seven, I mean obviously some
173
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,800
of that is club share, which is
like still prize pool
174
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:05,560
essentially.
Prize was prize pool, yeah.
175
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:11,720
Yeah, yeah, all seven of them.
There's like 2 PGLS, 2 Blasts, 2
176
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,520
or 3 ESLS.
They all have $1,000,000 prize
177
00:10:15,560 --> 00:10:17,560
pools.
So what's special about winning
178
00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:19,360
the major other than a little
fucking trophy?
179
00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:22,440
Like it's just, it's the major,
whatever.
180
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,600
Like actually whatever when it
we have to start out with a
181
00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,680
fucking stage like this, it's a
load of shite.
182
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,880
But as well, and because we need
to mention it, fucking Star
183
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:36,720
ladder man.
Like the first day of the
184
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,160
broadcast was an absolute mess.
I'm going to get obviously
185
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:43,720
running at any event is is a lot
of work.
186
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,840
There's far more moving parts
than people behind the scenes
187
00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,600
than anyone will appreciate.
Even me who works at events,
188
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,960
like there's still so much more
going on than even I really
189
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,480
understand right.
And I'm going to give them as
190
00:10:55,480 --> 00:11:00,040
much race as I can.
But the issues you had on day
191
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:03,920
one, like a 2 hour attack pause,
like just can't, can't happen.
192
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:07,960
There was issues in the beach.
We were like half the rodeo and
193
00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:09,920
stuff, which was bad.
Then there was like the platform
194
00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:16,680
specific casters, which is
confusing to me because from my
195
00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:20,520
understanding, at least with how
the broadcast is handled at the
196
00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,400
events I've worked out, there's
one main feed that goes to the
197
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:24,880
platforms.
Yeah, it doesn't.
198
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,080
It doesn't make sense how that.
They go to your platforms.
199
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:30,040
Like technically happen, right?
And then there's the the closed
200
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:31,920
feed, which will go to Co
streamers and stuff, whatever,
201
00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:37,400
right?
But yeah, it's, it's, it's not
202
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:38,400
good.
It's not good.
203
00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,360
They've recovered well, there's
not been as many issues or
204
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,120
definitely nothing to that
degree since day one.
205
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:46,800
But I think people have been so
excited for the major.
206
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,960
I've been really excited for it.
Like I was saying to you, some
207
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:50,960
right?
It's not the last sort of three
208
00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:53,200
months of CS.
I've been really engaged and and
209
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:55,520
that's been really excited.
Like obviously I've had quite a
210
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,360
busy year, but it's been a good
time to be involved in Counter
211
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,440
Strike and I'm being like really
interested in this major being
212
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:06,360
quite, it's a good, good, good
end to the year, I think, right.
213
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,520
And that kind of sours it when
when the first day the event has
214
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,320
such such big errors and big
issues.
215
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:15,640
There's also, because we've got
to talk about it, the fucking
216
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:21,040
humiliation rituals.
Yeah, I think exit interviews
217
00:12:21,040 --> 00:12:22,800
are good.
I think they're needed.
218
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:26,320
That's that's fine.
I think that especially needed
219
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:27,840
when there's a mixer in this
press there.
220
00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,480
And I think press should get the
credit for that or, you know, be
221
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:34,640
able to have have that.
But having the teams like take
222
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:37,360
down their logos from this wall,
which apparently they're like
223
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,360
super strongly stuck to the
wall.
224
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,560
And there's this this I don't
know if we can play.
225
00:12:43,560 --> 00:12:46,040
You can see all screen if you're
watching but without the audio
226
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:51,120
there's this really somber piano
music which is just like kind of
227
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,200
cringe.
And remember the old like MLG
228
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:57,760
sad music?
Yeah, it's that kind of shit.
229
00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,960
No, but and they have to sign
their names on some easel thing.
230
00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,000
Like I get it's it's a cool
thing and like maybe they can
231
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,480
give them they maybe they'll
give away the sign things after
232
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,040
like that's kind of cool for
fans, whatever.
233
00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,720
But doing this on broadcast and
I also feel for banks like
234
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,280
having to interview players when
they're just like they've just
235
00:13:16,560 --> 00:13:19,360
lost the tournament.
It's like, oh mate, never good.
236
00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,000
I.
Mean.
237
00:13:20,560 --> 00:13:22,160
I hope he's done the best he can
with.
238
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,360
That no, I hope he doesn't mind
me saying this.
239
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:30,080
I was I was speaking to him
earlier because so we, we posted
240
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,200
this and the retweet of it is me
saying like these segments are
241
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:37,240
diabolically shit.
Like I, I, I, I don't
242
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:38,480
understand.
My styles.
243
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,000
Yeah, yeah, and Banks replied.
Like just doing my job, man.
244
00:13:45,280 --> 00:13:48,080
I think it's not his fault.
It's just not his fault.
245
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,880
Like he is doing the absolute
best he can with these segments
246
00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:53,320
and like he's getting shipped
for it.
247
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:57,040
Like we, we spoke about it.
He's like he, he just, he isn't
248
00:13:57,040 --> 00:14:00,040
even sure what are the shots at
him at this point, because like
249
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,120
these, these segments are just
terrible.
250
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,960
And then you had like Amelia
from limb vision crying his eyes
251
00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,320
out.
I, I don't want to watch.
252
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,600
I don't need to watch that.
It's just it's working for
253
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:13,360
everyone involved.
I'm fine with an exit interview,
254
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,760
but this year is just, it's like
unnecessary and as well, like do
255
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,840
you know what it feels?
It feels like someone has
256
00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:23,160
watched EWC and looked at the
key crushing thing and has gone,
257
00:14:23,160 --> 00:14:25,040
you know what?
This is really cool.
258
00:14:25,280 --> 00:14:27,000
It's really.
Let's do that with none of the
259
00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:28,880
good bits.
And it's like, yeah, how, how
260
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:32,280
can we, how can we have this?
But like, so it's not EWC.
261
00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:34,840
And they've come up with
humiliation rituals.
262
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,320
But the cool thing with EWC is
the team that eliminate you.
263
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,240
Crush your key.
So there's like the there's like
264
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,200
the yeah, we fucked you angle
right.
265
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,760
This is just like, yeah, take
your logo down from the wall.
266
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:51,720
Like I'd I'd be happier if they
just had like the logo's like
267
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,800
just caught fire or something
like that.
268
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:57,800
Like yeah, like a.
Cool visual where they just
269
00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,520
like, yeah, burn the logo or
whatever.
270
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,760
Like, I mean, it's a bit
disrespectful, but like, yeah,
271
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:07,080
fine.
Yeah, it's it's just weird.
272
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:09,040
Don't like it.
One thing I do like.
273
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:12,640
And also that that logo will,
one thing is the it's the wrong
274
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:15,600
Navi logo, and I would have been
shouted at if I did that on
275
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:20,480
broadcast.
But secondly is it's just going
276
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,480
to look very weird when half the
logos are missing and they're
277
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,360
just kind of all sporadically
around the place.
278
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,880
Like it's not actually that fun
of visual, unfortunately.
279
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:30,720
Yeah, enough shitting on that
though.
280
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:33,000
The the tier has been good.
The the event has been good
281
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:34,560
since since day one.
Other than this.
282
00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:35,920
Yeah, yeah, this.
Nonsense.
283
00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:38,920
And one thing I do want to say
before we actually talk about
284
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:42,160
the teams themselves, I think
Kick is now my preferred method
285
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,400
of watching Counter Strike.
Kick is so good.
286
00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,840
It's like it never buffers, it
looks.
287
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,520
It's like, yeah, it's like if if
Twitch had none of none of the
288
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:55,160
issues and the layout was kind
of what you what you'd want for
289
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,040
Legend platform.
Yeah, it's really good.
290
00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:59,800
I don't really understand what
the fuss is about.
291
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,360
Which brings us on to the taking
of the week by the way, just
292
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,880
because it really made me
chuckle when he sent the message
293
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:09,800
and he's talking about YouTube.
But taken said general question,
294
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:12,720
but why don't more people use
YouTube to watch the game?
295
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,560
Like better bit rate and less
lag, less overall ads and murky
296
00:16:16,560 --> 00:16:19,480
responded emotes.
Question mark take and just put.
297
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,160
Valid.
Because unironically I don't
298
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,720
care what some troglodyte has to
emote after a play, it's just
299
00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,600
really good.
Because I agree you have a
300
00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,560
degree of mental illness if you
are actually active in a twitch
301
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,280
chat.
Yeah, like the.
302
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:38,480
Especially no, like, sorry, but
especially a fucking TO's Twitch
303
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:39,800
chat.
I get it if you're watching a
304
00:16:39,800 --> 00:16:42,600
streamer who actually interacts
with the chat and like, you
305
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,200
know.
They kind of but like do you
306
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,080
know you know there's there's
dangerous like jobless guys like
307
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:51,760
shooting into like Kaiser that
stream yeah, just like super
308
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,960
involved.
That's kind of weird yeah I mean
309
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,680
chatting to streamer when
there's broadcasting is kind of
310
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:57,120
fun.
But yeah, like talking to
311
00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:58,760
talking to the void of TO is a
bit do.
312
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,640
You remember when we were, we
were watching the fucking
313
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,359
Fortnite guy, I don't think what
his name was.
314
00:17:05,319 --> 00:17:08,359
I gave A4 TV.
Yeah, I gave A4 TV.
315
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,599
So I'm going to give the
context.
316
00:17:10,599 --> 00:17:13,680
Yeah, this dude was doing a,
he's doing like a stream
317
00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,359
marathon, like a 24 hour stream
on loop, whatever.
318
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:20,319
But you could use they call bits
on Twitch like the channel
319
00:17:20,319 --> 00:17:24,280
points, channel points and you
could like wake him up and
320
00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,079
stuff.
So this poor guy we basically
321
00:17:26,079 --> 00:17:27,040
taught.
We were spending.
322
00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:30,480
Money for like 4 or five days.
Yeah, there's donations.
323
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,440
I was donating an adult and it
was set off like a like A and
324
00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:37,200
then it was like he was a girl
writing.
325
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,720
It was like 1000 killed or
something.
326
00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,080
Yeah, he wasn't getting off
Twitch and was only going to
327
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,720
play Fortnite for the entire
time he was awake.
328
00:17:44,760 --> 00:17:48,160
Or sleep on stream, yeah.
And sleeping on stream.
329
00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:54,480
Like visibly on stream and he's
not a big streamer at all until
330
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:58,360
he reaches like yeah, yeah,
until he reached 1000 kills, but
331
00:17:58,360 --> 00:18:00,320
you could also pay to reset his
kills.
332
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,240
So it was like multiple times he
got close.
333
00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,760
You just took 200 off him.
I remember the one time he was
334
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:09,000
on like 998 and a guy just wiped
the slate clean and he.
335
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,720
Ended up this guy's got he's got
5K followers and he hasn't
336
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:18,640
streamed in like months.
Was it like it was over 200 days
337
00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:20,480
when it that he was on stream
consecutively?
338
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:23,800
Yeah, yeah, it was like respect
the hustle.
339
00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:25,560
And I'm sure, I'm sure you've
probably made a nice bit of
340
00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,720
money out of it as well, but.
But so like that, I completely,
341
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,400
I can understand it talking to
HHN because it was great.
342
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,440
Like he was really entertaining
to talk to and we we had a great
343
00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:35,880
time.
And he was like, no, please,
344
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,120
please don't donate.
I'm like, I'm sorry man, 20
345
00:18:38,120 --> 00:18:42,760
bucks.
But like a fucking TO man, he's
346
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:48,480
like emo, like fucking who?
Who was The Who was the guy he
347
00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,160
used to play on like Mother Star
or like the Portuguese scene
348
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,920
that like spammer dog emo, like
I don't fucking know.
349
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:58,680
He's like he's got a stupid name
that sounds like Cocker spaniel.
350
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:03,000
I don't fucking know bro, but
he's like like all this Cocker
351
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,680
shit, no.
Idea what you're saying you
352
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:08,680
should all go and wear a cap,
no?
353
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:11,440
I can't.
All right, Charlie, cut that
354
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,920
out.
Moving on, who did good?
355
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:17,320
Yeah.
All right, we're going to talk
356
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:20,600
about the actual teams in the
major now, and we're going to
357
00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:23,680
start with the shit ones.
Rare app.
358
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,280
Of which there are many.
They went out, oh, free.
359
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:31,280
I just don't care.
Who calls unironically?
360
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,240
Yeah, yeah, genuinely, this is
this is.
361
00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,040
I think they won a map.
Maybe, maybe not.
362
00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,640
I don't know.
I.
363
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,680
They played with their coach.
All I needed was for them to go
364
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:45,440
free to get a picking point.
So thank you your service.
365
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:47,480
Your service has been greatly
appreciated.
366
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,720
Yeah, Lean Vision actually a
disappointment.
367
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,760
We will.
We will take a second to talk
368
00:19:53,760 --> 00:20:00,200
about them. 2nd over they over
formed Austin massively and I
369
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:02,880
think like they were just kind
of funny on broadcast.
370
00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:07,160
People like oh, people seem to
forget that like like Config in
371
00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,720
his later years he was fun and
people liked him, but he wasn't
372
00:20:09,720 --> 00:20:10,680
good.
Right.
373
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:13,160
Mainly because he was drunk all
the time.
374
00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,280
I'm not, you know.
Allegedly.
375
00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:18,960
Allegedly.
But Linds and like, yeah, they
376
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,840
were just kind of fun.
Amelia was standing on the desk
377
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,480
and shouting and and you know,
it was awesome.
378
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,360
They weren't good.
They weren't.
379
00:20:25,360 --> 00:20:27,640
They weren't good.
The field often was poor.
380
00:20:28,120 --> 00:20:31,720
Really.
Yeah.
381
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,120
Disappointing.
Maybe they should have gone 11
382
00:20:34,120 --> 00:20:36,560
to 3:00 instead.
I just don't give a fuck.
383
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:36,960
Really.
Yeah.
384
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,920
I mean they should have been
phased phase of fucking dog shit
385
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:47,920
but yeah man I I just they did
well in Austin off the back of
386
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:52,280
like 2 maps and some lucky wins.
When they had a new I.
387
00:20:54,360 --> 00:20:59,560
Was Nuke and something else?
I can't remember what but like I
388
00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:00,760
think this was gone by then
anyway.
389
00:21:00,760 --> 00:21:03,200
Wasn't.
It I don't know, I maybe
390
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:09,320
probably think so.
Fuck this either way, they're
391
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,760
just a known commodity now and
O3 is probably still worse than
392
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:20,520
you'd expect because like fluxo
red canids canids, whatever NRG
393
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,640
like there's a number of teams
you'd expect to go O3 Oval
394
00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:29,000
envision, but it's not like when
you actually think about it and
395
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:33,360
I know I had them to go through
and I think maybe you did as
396
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:33,840
well.
I.
397
00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:35,400
Think I did for the simulator,
yeah.
398
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:38,920
But it's just like when you
actually think about it again,
399
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:41,240
it's like, oh, OK, no, it it is
quite fair.
400
00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:47,840
Anyway, moving on one three
teams, the Huns that are going
401
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:49,680
to talk about them couldn't give
less of a fuck.
402
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:51,640
If I'm being honest, I really
don't care.
403
00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:55,280
Red cannons shouldn't have gone
1/3.
404
00:21:56,160 --> 00:21:57,520
They they should not have gone
1/3.
405
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:59,960
They should have been in the 2
two games.
406
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:02,800
Yeah, they had a really, really
good, good start.
407
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:04,880
Honestly, that's the Fanatic,
which is just fine.
408
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:10,400
They beat Yemen Legion really
convincingly and then they lost
409
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,000
the Legacy, which were kind of
close, and then they came
410
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:14,760
against Fury, against phase they
could have taken.
411
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,800
They they they were.
They should have taken.
412
00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:23,600
Honestly .457 seconds off
winning it .452. 20 right?
413
00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,680
Yeah, off A20 that was final
round.
414
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:31,640
History was diffusing the bottom
on base like Nuke and Carrigan
415
00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:33,960
managed to kill him in the one
V1.
416
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,920
Annoyingly, History had a smoke.
If you had dropped the smoke,
417
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:40,840
you'd won the round.
Those are the kind of plays
418
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:42,840
that, like, just haunt you for
the rest of your career, don't
419
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:43,600
they?
It's a shame.
420
00:22:43,600 --> 00:22:47,400
Yeah, absolutely.
I don't want to preface phase
421
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,680
too much, but from what we just
said, you could see the phase.
422
00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:56,840
We're at A12 game.
It's not good.
423
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:58,920
It's not good.
Yeah.
424
00:22:59,320 --> 00:23:03,120
Not good at all.
So yeah, red candids.
425
00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:12,120
Pleasantly surprised by them.
It was nice to see Che Jesus
426
00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:15,080
perform to a best standard
because he was fucking crap on
427
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:19,760
Imperial and Venom 0.
All right, player, not bad.
428
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:25,160
And Drops been all right.
He's never that good really, but
429
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,200
he's kind of had, I think he's
RG Elling as well.
430
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:28,320
Right.
He, he is.
431
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:34,240
And like with him and obviously
Legacy we're going to talk about
432
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:35,760
in a minute.
It's a bit of a disappointment,
433
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:38,760
but with him and Lux going on to
become RGLS, there's some quite
434
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,040
nice storylines there.
It's quite a good future for for
435
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:43,280
Brazil which?
Is yeah it.
436
00:23:43,360 --> 00:23:45,880
Seems like there's kind of not
been not been.
437
00:23:46,120 --> 00:23:47,800
In that sense.
You know, yeah.
438
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,480
Anyway, the other one free team
that we need to we we do we do
439
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:57,720
need to just game a legion.
The the legion in the room like
440
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,480
elephant.
Just awful.
441
00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:03,560
Can the can gamers and ever get
a a good oppa?
442
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,520
Their best oppa was a core.
Seriously.
443
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:10,960
I think in the first day as
well, it's not just the oppa I
444
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:15,680
was, I was talking to my friend.
No, but it's historically it has
445
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,720
been the oppa, but now it's now
it's.
446
00:24:18,200 --> 00:24:20,120
More than that.
But here's the thing right?
447
00:24:20,120 --> 00:24:23,000
I was talking to our friend Dara
about this earlier because he
448
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:28,440
wrote a really good article on
them and there is a point where
449
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,200
OK cursy bad, just just a bad
play.
450
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:34,960
It was never going to work and
whoever scouted him and actually
451
00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:40,640
brought him in, unless it was
truly enforced by budget is you
452
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:46,040
got to ask a question there.
But Slend was not bad for a
453
00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:51,520
time.
He actually wasn't Hoypex.
454
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,080
Slend that a good start for
sure.
455
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,760
And then like there was the
weird visa thingy when they just
456
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:56,800
want to play they call.
But yeah.
457
00:24:57,360 --> 00:25:02,040
Hoypex, he's he's not coming in
with like a phenomenal
458
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,280
reputation, but he wasn't as bad
as he's been.
459
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,520
So at some point you have to ask
like I, I can't do what I do
460
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:13,280
about spirit and tenure and Sway
and Zontix and magic.
461
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,880
So do what I do about Dexter and
all the Orcas that struggle
462
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:19,400
under Dexter and not do the same
Now about ZTR and unfortunately
463
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:23,200
maybe also Ash, I can't.
I can't pick and choose when I
464
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:24,640
do that just because I like
them.
465
00:25:25,040 --> 00:25:29,520
Yeah, and it seems as well like,
like Ash is brilliant in so many
466
00:25:29,520 --> 00:25:35,240
other ways that it's kind of.
But it's a real shame if if
467
00:25:35,400 --> 00:25:37,880
getting a functioning opera is
something that he can't get in
468
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:41,400
his system.
But also like like when when
469
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:44,440
when, when Cambridge has Chewie
and Acor.
470
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,360
They were probably like overall
better.
471
00:25:48,360 --> 00:25:50,400
Obviously, Obviously they had
better players in other spots as
472
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:50,840
well.
Right.
473
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,960
Had Isaac then still as well.
But like, yeah.
474
00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,080
And it it does spell Emma.
Did they have Isaac at that time
475
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,920
as well?
Yeah, they did, but he's kind of
476
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:06,160
crap and it's quite.
Sure, but this does this does
477
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:09,480
cast.
I would say worry on the the the
478
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:13,440
100 thieves rumour that they
wanted the game region core
479
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,480
because I mean, I've it means
maybe 100 thieves can get them
480
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,800
for a lot cheaper now after
after this result.
481
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,440
But I think this is definitely
the last time we see this this
482
00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:25,760
game region, this, this, this
look for.
483
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:27,440
Sure.
I think absolutely.
484
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:29,200
I mean.
They have to.
485
00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:30,680
I don't like.
What else do they expect, right?
486
00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,080
You can't.
You can't not make a change like
487
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:38,360
even if even if you just you
don't lose the core.
488
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,080
You've got to at least look to
change that.
489
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:46,120
TR for Linus, honestly.
I was just going to you going to
490
00:26:46,120 --> 00:26:47,920
suggest Yeah, I.
Think you should bash out
491
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,080
because The thing is.
What is it with young ninjas
492
00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:54,200
producing decent Igls?
But yeah.
493
00:26:54,280 --> 00:27:00,600
They got 4T rounds on the
opening day of this major and
494
00:27:00,600 --> 00:27:03,600
this isn't the first time the
game legion of fucking sucked on
495
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:07,400
T sides.
Like it's just like, you can't
496
00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,560
really afford to suck at half of
the game, can you?
497
00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,320
Yeah, yeah.
And so an interesting thing in
498
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,840
in Dara's article, which I'll
just I'll just which.
499
00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:19,240
Will be down below if you want
to read it.
500
00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,800
Yeah, yeah, it'll be down below,
but I'll just pull it up so so
501
00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,120
Charlie can get it was also
their CT side win rates.
502
00:27:30,360 --> 00:27:34,120
Here you go, Charlie.
I'll, I'll put it in podcast
503
00:27:34,120 --> 00:27:39,520
spam channel.
So let me Scroll down and find
504
00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:44,400
it.
So obviously we know that
505
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:47,320
throughout the year, the CT
sides have become a lot better
506
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:51,280
across the board.
You know, there was the economy
507
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,600
change that that benefited them,
gave them a little bit more
508
00:27:54,600 --> 00:27:56,360
money.
You have to Scroll down quite a
509
00:27:56,360 --> 00:27:59,440
bit, Charlie.
Yeah, to the next section.
510
00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,560
Economy change gave them more
money and generally just like
511
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,000
the the meta has shifted with
Anubis going as well.
512
00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:09,160
So CT sides look better across
the board.
513
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:15,600
Game allegiance CT sides haven't
gone up, they've gone up by .1%.
514
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:20,600
That's also a bad sign.
Yeah, like the meta's evolved to
515
00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:25,680
a place where CT side is, is,
let's say, easier by the
516
00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:32,000
statistical measure, right.
And then you've not improved.
517
00:28:32,360 --> 00:28:35,440
So it's a really you've actually
gotten worse, right.
518
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:37,280
If everyone else has gotten
better at something you haven't,
519
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:38,520
you've gotten worse.
Do you know what I mean?
520
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,600
Yeah, and like if you, if you go
down further, Charlie, you go
521
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,280
down further.
The changes flipped all 7 active
522
00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:50,280
duty maps to be CT sided.
We've only trained Nuke and
523
00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:53,480
Mirage being CT sided in the
first half of the year right?
524
00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:57,400
Game of Legion has been stagnant
despite playing overpass as
525
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,000
their first pick in the majority
of videos.
526
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:01,280
Overpasses are really CT sided.
Math Yeah.
527
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:06,960
Their T sides have gone from
48.2% to 45.5 in the last three
528
00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,160
months.
Rez on the T side has dropped
529
00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:15,480
from 1.12 to one point O1.
And also on that rez, rez is
530
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:18,680
like end of Nip.
He was also like particularly
531
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:26,600
weak on on the T side as well.
And and also good of the top 30
532
00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:30,480
teams game, Legion are ranked
28th for opening kill percentage
533
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,400
on the Teesside.
These are awful stats.
534
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,200
These are really bad.
There is something seriously
535
00:29:36,200 --> 00:29:40,920
going wrong in that team where
as well when you look at the
536
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:44,680
fact that like I think going
into Austin or even coming out
537
00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:50,320
of Austin, they were like 9th in
the world on HLTV.
538
00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:51,920
Yeah.
Now they are top.
539
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:57,640
Tennis, Yeah.
It's also just like like they've
540
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,480
got PR who, who is one of those,
you know, hot, hot names for the
541
00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,360
sort of next couple of years to
be, to be like a serious, you
542
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:06,960
know, big game player.
Yeah, he's still worth, but
543
00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,280
every pen like he's worth.
Yeah, but with, without putting
544
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,640
our, you know, kind of our
chickens before they hatch, as
545
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:17,560
they say, it's never good for a
player's stock to be on a team
546
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:19,640
that that gets that bad.
Do you know what I mean?
547
00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:23,240
Yeah, and it obviously it must
be systemic at that point,
548
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:24,560
right?
Like like it can't just be like
549
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,080
like Rez was good at the start
when he joined, which was great
550
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:29,400
for me.
I was really happy to see that,
551
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,560
honestly.
Yeah, me too.
552
00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:35,960
And then it's just gone again.
So I I, I'm I'm hoping that the
553
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,680
Corp gets bought out and they
have a nice resurgence and
554
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:43,600
something fun happens.
But I would in the world where
555
00:30:43,600 --> 00:30:47,840
they with the where Rez, Rez PR
and Thousand got 100 thieves.
556
00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:52,160
I would be surprised if 12
minutes on the line, all three
557
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:53,280
of those players are still on
the team.
558
00:30:54,640 --> 00:31:00,040
Well, this is the thing, right?
Towson has had a regression to
559
00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:05,200
the mean in this major.
I think he's one point past
560
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:09,760
three months before the major.
He's like 1.11 or like one point
561
00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,320
O 9, something like that.
It's a bit of a boring.
562
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:17,800
Standing.
Yeah, don't worry about it.
563
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:19,480
I.
Just trust you, that's fine.
564
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:22,400
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was looking at it earlier this
565
00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:29,480
major nought .92 but he's just
sucked red nought .98 so
566
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:32,920
obviously bad PR was 1.09 or
something like that.
567
00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:36,600
Like there's no concern about
him whatsoever but.
568
00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:38,920
And also like I think we do have
to talk about Hypex as well.
569
00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,400
Should not be mentioned.
It like he's better than Kersey,
570
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:48,480
but he's just like not good.
And I get like it's bizarre that
571
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:53,400
that Ash's rifle scouting has
historically been so good.
572
00:31:54,200 --> 00:31:56,080
Like he's actually just plucked.
These players are kind of out of
573
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,840
nowhere.
Like what the fuck is PR doing?
574
00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:03,760
Was he on like sinners or like,
OK, so maybe he's someone else
575
00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:08,440
is scouting at that point then,
but it's like not it's really
576
00:32:08,440 --> 00:32:11,000
not good.
And and we've discussed it a
577
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,480
little bit before.
I think we spoke about it with
578
00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:16,760
Elliot last week, But like the
impact and open makes at the
579
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:21,920
sort of different tiers of of
the of the pro scene, right, You
580
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:26,240
can't have a non starting open
at that at that level at all.
581
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,040
It's just not not viable at all.
And I'm I'm sure have X has the
582
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:36,400
chance to to be good.
But again, like just like going
583
00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,680
from like again, like apogee to
game region like that is like a
584
00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:42,360
serious step up.
And when game region was, you
585
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:44,560
know, is usually the sort of
feeder team as well.
586
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,640
Like it's even more noticeable,
right, If if you don't even make
587
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:54,720
it to to to the 1.5 level,
right, Yeah, it's just it's it's
588
00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,080
the end of this team.
It has to be right?
589
00:32:56,880 --> 00:32:58,760
No, I agree.
I completely agree.
590
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:03,400
Should move on to the three two
group. 100 thieves yes.
591
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:08,320
So what's the space?
The 2 three teams, Fluxo sorry,
592
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,160
not going to talk about you
don't care.
593
00:33:10,280 --> 00:33:12,320
Well, I'm going to talk about
them because they had a really
594
00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:14,800
good start and then they lost
three round.
595
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:15,640
Three.
Oh yeah, that is.
596
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:19,040
Yeah, OK, that is the thing.
They went 20223.
597
00:33:20,040 --> 00:33:22,640
Which seems to always happen in
this at the start of the major
598
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:25,480
as well.
Yeah, I mean.
599
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,520
We're doing some and I working
on a video about Furia, which
600
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:31,400
we've mentioned last week and
obviously art is mentioned in
601
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:37,160
that a little bit.
He's he's just not really
602
00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:41,200
evolved really much at all.
Like it's, it's a different
603
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:43,960
place to now because it would be
like suicide if he was playing
604
00:33:43,960 --> 00:33:50,320
the same way he was before.
But yeah, it's, it's just not
605
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:53,480
exciting, unfortunately.
I would be happy if it went
606
00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:54,920
through, just would have been
fun.
607
00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,840
But I think this result is kind
of what we all expected from
608
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:00,280
them, unfortunately.
So yeah, I.
609
00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:02,280
Mean it would have made Major
worse if they'd have gone
610
00:34:02,320 --> 00:34:05,920
through because like, this
famous story ultimately will be
611
00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:09,239
keeping us more entertained than
Fluxo would, but yeah.
612
00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,480
Yeah, I will say Luke Lukowsi, I
know he's not meant to be like
613
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:15,920
one of their bigger names, but
obviously like he had a lot of
614
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:19,639
impact at Austin on MBR in that
famous game against Falcons.
615
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:24,320
I think he's actually pretty,
pretty decent honestly.
616
00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,679
But I don't know if he ever like
rating wise, maybe not, but I
617
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:31,560
feel like he's kind of a big
game player.
618
00:34:31,679 --> 00:34:33,280
So maybe you want to keep an eye
on the future.
619
00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:36,639
But Zevi's also kind of the main
the main name of this team,
620
00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:39,239
right?
Yeah, maybe.
621
00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:40,840
No, it's crap.
Yeah.
622
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:45,199
So Fluxo aren't the only team to
go 20223.
623
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:48,440
NRG also did.
With the coach.
624
00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:50,440
Important asterisk if we weren't
aware of that.
625
00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:55,360
Yeah, honestly such a shame they
did because like, yeah,
626
00:34:55,360 --> 00:34:58,200
genuinely great effort from them
on the.
627
00:34:58,240 --> 00:35:00,920
Opening day they looked like
really good, especially against
628
00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,560
phase.
They beat Nip and Phase and they
629
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:07,680
looked they just looked good.
And then it gets the Bo freeze
630
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,360
and just it's just that much
harder to win ABO free because
631
00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:15,040
the mental hump that you have to
get over when you're playing
632
00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:23,520
with your coach and look NRG of
of literally like 32 teams at
633
00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:26,560
the major in terms of what
you're losing to what you're
634
00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:28,360
gaining.
If you swap out your IGO for
635
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:35,560
your coach, NRG are probably in
the top three for having Daps
636
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:39,360
there and like Mae with deaths,
probably not that bad.
637
00:35:40,480 --> 00:35:44,200
I don't know about anymore, but
back in the day maybe.
638
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:50,200
Well, Death was playing at the
highest level in a game more
639
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:52,840
free more recently than Daps.
Child game.
640
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:55,480
No, this is true.
He was.
641
00:35:55,720 --> 00:35:57,360
Bloody good at it though, to be
fair to him.
642
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,160
No, I, I I like that.
I'm I'm, I'm already shouting
643
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:05,160
super fun but exotic.
I honestly like like his event
644
00:36:05,160 --> 00:36:07,920
starts aren't great, but in the
opening two games he was like
645
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:13,520
really good and he was hitting
like poker shots and like have
646
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,120
like, you know, when someone's
in the spot with an open and
647
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,080
you're like, OK, he'll get one
and get traded.
648
00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:22,000
He just kind of would get would
get 3 like more often than not.
649
00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:29,040
I guess there's a reason, you
know, they signed the chair
650
00:36:29,400 --> 00:36:31,200
because he actually just is
good.
651
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:36,000
This chairs got hands.
Yeah, I think they all wanted
652
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:37,840
NRG to go through because
they've been.
653
00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:39,240
It would have been a fun story
for sure.
654
00:36:39,240 --> 00:36:42,680
One of the bright spots of a
rubbish opening stage.
655
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,600
The final two free team though,
because we have to talk about
656
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:52,360
them more, is legacy.
So I just I had legacy as my 3 O
657
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:55,080
team.
I don't think there was many
658
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:57,720
people in the world that didn't
have legacy as a free OPEC.
659
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,560
Yes, I think.
That's and they've gone out I'm.
660
00:37:01,240 --> 00:37:06,160
Going to say they find the
phrase recently bias but since I
661
00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,680
mean they obviously took the map
off for Talia lost in right?
662
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,080
And they've won an event, maybe
2 events.
663
00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,720
They won CAC, right?
They won CAC and got to the
664
00:37:13,720 --> 00:37:16,680
final of.
The one that the Mongols won, is
665
00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:18,600
that correct?
No 3D.
666
00:37:18,600 --> 00:37:21,120
Was it Thunderpix Aurora?
Aurora.
667
00:37:21,240 --> 00:37:22,720
It was Aurora.
It was the one of Aurora.
668
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:26,320
PGL was it?
But fucked nowhere.
669
00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:36,160
PGL, yeah, it was in the yes,
yeah.
670
00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:40,080
Is it just a good run of form
kind of coming to an end?
671
00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:42,480
Probably like?
No, here's the thing.
672
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:43,600
Here's the thing.
I've said.
673
00:37:43,720 --> 00:37:45,040
I've said the line, I've said
the line.
674
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,320
Here's the thing, right?
Putting.
675
00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:51,360
Putting this to fucking bed.
Yes, some degree, some degree
676
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:54,200
recently biased, but when you
look at the field and then you
677
00:37:54,200 --> 00:37:55,440
look at the field.
Within.
678
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:58,480
Oh, you should have got some.
Free bias Freo probably is a
679
00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:02,600
reasonable pick, right?
Yeah, but here's the thing when
680
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,160
I wrote the deep dive.
Again.
681
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,600
Last week I'm doing it's a bit
now, mate, calm down.
682
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,320
Here's the thing.
When I wrote the Deep Dive last
683
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,240
week talking about the favorite
for the major and I included
684
00:38:15,240 --> 00:38:19,760
Legacy as a courtesy, I said in
that something along the lines
685
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:23,280
of people are right now
confusing Legacy for a good
686
00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:27,960
team, but the fact is that they
won an event with an incredibly
687
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:31,920
weak field where looking at that
event at the start of it, you go
688
00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,160
fucking hell.
Liquid might actually be the
689
00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:37,320
favorite for an event.
If Liquid are the favorite for
690
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:40,480
an event, that event is not
worth considering the result of.
691
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:46,040
The the Fraser Well, well done.
He's 13, comes to mind, right?
692
00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,520
Yeah, yeah, and, and PJ Blue
Crest as well.
693
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,320
Like if that was, I'm sure it
was a tournament.
694
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,760
Also a terrible field.
Aurora won it for fuck's sake.
695
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:58,200
But there's one thing we know of
Aurora is that they just can't
696
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:01,920
win a fucking event.
And and this is this is the
697
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,080
thing, right?
Elliot, who's who's not here now
698
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,240
because he's like got asleep or
some shit.
699
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,600
He commented when I, when I
wrote it saying well isn't a
700
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:19,280
sign of a good team typically,
you know, taking advantage of a
701
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,840
weaker field and capitalizing on
it or whatever the fuck I wrote
702
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:23,040
in the day.
No it's not.
703
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,080
No, the sound of a good team is
beating over fucking good teams
704
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,920
and legacy haven't actually
beaten anyone good.
705
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,520
It's kind of yeah, it's it's or.
Maybe they beat free D Max to
706
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,400
win CAC.
If you only, if you only beat
707
00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,240
shit teams, you're just the best
of the shit teams, right?
708
00:39:36,240 --> 00:39:38,240
It's still a shit team.
Yeah, yeah.
709
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:41,240
The best Legacy could have hoped
for is to have been like a new
710
00:39:41,240 --> 00:39:45,000
gatekeeper team until they beat.
Anyone back or a?
711
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,720
Current free D Max.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
712
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,880
They're not that.
No, they're not that like.
713
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,080
I will say though, the series
that we've just finished
714
00:39:55,080 --> 00:39:59,440
watching their 22 game against
power vision, which saved my
715
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,560
pickams.
So thank you legacy for for
716
00:40:01,560 --> 00:40:05,240
losing real game of margins like
the dust 2 overtime.
717
00:40:05,240 --> 00:40:07,640
The third map could have gone
either way.
718
00:40:07,720 --> 00:40:11,000
Every times they choked hard,
but a lot of the rounds were
719
00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,880
very good.
So I think it's unfair to say
720
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:17,800
that they're like not good, but
it's certainly disappointed.
721
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,840
I think they lost games.
They should.
722
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,120
It's fair to say they're not
good if you have an elite
723
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:26,000
mentality.
I like that.
724
00:40:26,000 --> 00:40:28,200
I'm not even going to retort.
That's good.
725
00:40:28,720 --> 00:40:30,920
Fantastic.
If you move on, that's this
726
00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,600
place.
All right, let's move on into
727
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,000
the ad break.
Let's do that.
728
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,720
So Jack, do you find it hard to
keep up with all the news and
729
00:40:37,720 --> 00:40:39,200
Counter Strike?
I do.
730
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,800
I took a weekend off and I came
back to six new IG LS3
731
00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:45,760
retirements and apparently
Melvis Water Boy got picked up
732
00:40:45,760 --> 00:40:48,800
by a top 20 team.
Right, that's why I've been
733
00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,560
relying on the TLDR newsletter.
It's a biweekly e-mail that
734
00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,640
keeps you up to speed on
everything in the CSC without
735
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:58,040
needing scroll Reddit for three
hours while questioning your
736
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:01,240
life choices.
Yeah, it's like if HLTV had a
737
00:41:01,240 --> 00:41:03,960
baby with your funniest friend
who actually watches every game.
738
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:07,880
Yeah, quick hits of news, spicy
officer moves, upcoming match
739
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:09,800
schedules, and even some insider
gossip.
740
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,440
All killer, no filler.
And let's be honest, some of
741
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,440
these tournament formats you
need a guide just to figure out
742
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,320
who's playing who.
TLDR breaks it all down so you
743
00:41:19,320 --> 00:41:20,720
actually know what the Hell's
going on.
744
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,720
Plus, it's funny.
Like actually funny.
745
00:41:24,320 --> 00:41:26,840
It's like reading a group chat
between smart CS fans who roast
746
00:41:26,840 --> 00:41:29,080
everything insight but still
care deeply about the game.
747
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,160
So if your brain's full but your
heart still beats for Counter
748
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:35,760
Strike, do yourself a favour,
sign up for the TLDR newsletter.
749
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:39,560
It's free, fast, and guaranteed
to meet you smarter, or at least
750
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,360
sound smarter in Twitch chat.
Check out the link down below
751
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,880

thing more tragic than missing a
752
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:46,960
major upset is not even knowing
it happened.
753
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:51,360
TLDR you don't have time to read
everything you still want to
754
00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:58,680
sound like you did right?
We're back.
755
00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,240
Hope you enjoyed the outbreak,
which is just more of me and
756
00:42:03,240 --> 00:42:05,920
Jack because.
No sponsors.
757
00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:09,200
Please sponsor us Kik.
I was nice about you earlier.
758
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:12,640
Sponsor us.
We will even stream the podcast
759
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,760
to two people a week on Kik.
The.
760
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:20,200
Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia also, we're
761
00:42:20,320 --> 00:42:24,120
apparently Shields also all any
and all betting companies.
762
00:42:25,240 --> 00:42:28,760
Stake I will gamble your money
on stream.
763
00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:34,760
Gambling is good when you pay us
to do it and when I'm therefore
764
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,040
taking that money and putting
it.
765
00:42:36,240 --> 00:42:39,000
Let's talk about Counter Strike.
Speaking of gambling, the
766
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,520
pickams.
Yeah, the three O's.
767
00:42:41,520 --> 00:42:42,760
That that that's the segue.
How?
768
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:46,920
Many people have fly question
M80 so I fucking didn't
769
00:42:47,480 --> 00:42:50,960
probably.
Some, some some Australians.
770
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,880
Well yeah, I mean there's always
deluded cunts in their own.
771
00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,480
Country I know I made it going
through but but not three.
772
00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:01,840
Oh yeah, if you've got both 30
picks correct, I'm going to
773
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:06,480
assume you are like, fond of.
If you've got both 30 picks
774
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:08,880
correct, please give me the
number of your weed dealer
775
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,520
because it's time for me to
relapse.
776
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,520
Well, no, it's not weed, is it?
Whatever that.
777
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,840
Yeah, well, quite.
So here's here's the thing,
778
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:22,440
right, I've done it again.
I only had M80 to go through out
779
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:28,800
of these two teams, but I think
going through is also the
780
00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,360
minimum expectation for both
teams.
781
00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,600
And ultimately it doesn't matter
if they do it three or three two
782
00:43:36,320 --> 00:43:40,200
like that.
Ultimately they they they just
783
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,160
they did well in best of ones.
M80 almost choked to bait.
784
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:47,760
I don't really remember them
playing paravision.
785
00:43:49,360 --> 00:43:51,160
They.
Kind of bullied NRG though when
786
00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:54,040
they be a free.
Fly Quest beat Legacy which is
787
00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:57,160
good and then they beat Imperial
which is good but then both
788
00:43:57,160 --> 00:44:00,000
teams play Fluxo and NRG like in
the nicest way.
789
00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:05,200
Funnily enough, both teams that
went from 2O to 2/3.
790
00:44:07,680 --> 00:44:10,120
I think that's kind of worth
noticing, right?
791
00:44:10,680 --> 00:44:13,640
Yeah.
They they've beat teams that
792
00:44:13,840 --> 00:44:16,720
they qualified by being team
that didn't even go through so.
793
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:19,000
Yeah.
So there's something, there's
794
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:23,520
something to be said about that.
I think the major actually does
795
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:29,960
start for them now if they make
it through Stage 2, I think I'd
796
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:32,560
be impressed with either one of
them, honestly.
797
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,960
And I would expect it more from
M80.
798
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,000
I would too, but I think if this
major has been anything to to go
799
00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,600
by, don't expect anything,
right, I'll expect that.
800
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:46,000
What I want to say.
I will say that like like on fly
801
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:51,800
quest, since they got as a
coaching and I'm not a huge on
802
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,160
him as a coach or even reader,
Honestly, I don't think he's
803
00:44:54,240 --> 00:44:58,880
he's all that pretty good.
We haven't seen a lot of them
804
00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,880
internationally for for for a
little while.
805
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:08,800
So they were at they were at
Bucharest and they came like 9th
806
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,160
to 11th.
I think, like not good.
807
00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:15,520
Obviously that's the last time
we've seen them in a long time,
808
00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,880
but they're good.
I and I think since JKS joined
809
00:45:20,880 --> 00:45:21,960
there, there was some real
struggles.
810
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:25,000
I think JKS basically like fuck
Nethic who was like that star
811
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:29,520
pre JKS out of spots and I
haven't checked the data.
812
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,800
One of the more intelligent
stats pivots can do that for me,
813
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:36,840
but I think they've they've
reconfigured the setup a little
814
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:41,000
bit to allow Nethic and JKS to
both thrive, which like after
815
00:45:41,000 --> 00:45:43,360
you kind of, you know, discussed
in in the previous weeks, like
816
00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,760
you need to kind of to have two
stars right in most systems,
817
00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:50,800
plus Europa generally and Vexite
has been kind of taking these
818
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:54,560
opening duels and being a bit
more aggressive, which is is
819
00:45:54,560 --> 00:45:56,680
working out in the favour.
He's kind of taken like a
820
00:45:57,960 --> 00:46:02,520
slightly more least dunk play a
cell where he's kind of just
821
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,840
going like.
And I've always been I've always
822
00:46:05,840 --> 00:46:09,440
been really harsh on Dunk Dunk
on Vexite as well.
823
00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:13,800
He he was pretty lights out in
this stage.
824
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:15,880
You really can't criticise him.
And I think he's been a lot
825
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:18,760
better recently in general.
Like I remember writing an
826
00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:22,200
article about him a year or two
ago where basically he had worse
827
00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:26,000
numbers than Hoochie is that's
how bad he was so much better
828
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:30,880
now.
And it's where like credit where
829
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:36,560
credit is due to fly quest.
I criticise them in that article
830
00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:39,480
because I said that it was when
they they literally made like
831
00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:43,160
fucking top 16A pro league and
the Aussies were jerking
832
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,320
themselves off over it where
it's like OK but this team will
833
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:49,800
never.
Do any one mid Sorry no, no they
834
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,360
won't.
I will say just I don't think we
835
00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:55,320
need to it's like is the highest
rated player of stage one.
836
00:46:56,040 --> 00:46:58,800
Yeah, I did.
Its four maps but he's 164
837
00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:00,120
rated.
Anyway.
838
00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:05,760
That's very good.
My point was like W have done a
839
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,400
genuinely good job at improving
this team over time.
840
00:47:09,360 --> 00:47:13,160
JKS absolutely needed to come
back to this team for it to
841
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,920
finally all come together and I
feel like it is now that Netek
842
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:19,400
is performing again.
Regali is a really solid author
843
00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:20,920
for them.
Like David.
844
00:47:20,920 --> 00:47:22,560
Harley would have been a good
pickup for Game of Legion
845
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,320
honestly.
They might struggle to keep hold
846
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,280
of Regali because he is
genuinely really good.
847
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:31,680
And even when they got even when
they got netting Netek was a
848
00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:36,840
massive jump up for them from if
they get rid of Dexter, it was
849
00:47:36,840 --> 00:47:38,480
Dexter.
They got rid of Dexter.
850
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,960
Like all of their moves have
been such massive step UPS on
851
00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:46,840
who they've replaced and it's
like they've done exactly what I
852
00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:51,560
wanted them to do.
So I actually kind of like
853
00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:56,000
Flight Quest because they they
are operating the right way.
854
00:47:56,720 --> 00:48:00,120
I'm going to not go that far
because I feel like if I start
855
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:04,280
like a team they just tend to
stop being bad because God is
856
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,520
punishing me.
But.
857
00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,120
Punish you too if I was him, but
you know.
858
00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,640
I bet you would.
Good for them to go through.
859
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:14,920
I think where it gets more
exciting, though, more
860
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:19,760
interesting is the three one and
three two teams though segue.
861
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:27,280
Yes, right, fanatic.
I'm not going to talk about you,
862
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,400
Jack Can if you want, but in my
eyes you can go fuck.
863
00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:36,440
Go fuck.
Apparently, yeah, Fanatic will
864
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,080
be a full Ukrainian team by
2026.
865
00:48:39,680 --> 00:48:44,880
Maybe, maybe, maybe by it's like
a month by by the club major,
866
00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:47,600
they'll be fully Ukrainian.
What are the conditions for that
867
00:48:47,600 --> 00:48:58,680
to happen in your eyes?
In terms of what?
868
00:48:58,680 --> 00:49:02,480
Like what is up to them or?
OK, OK, let me let me rephrase.
869
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:07,000
Do they go full Ukrainian out of
want or necessity?
870
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,000
Criminals on the team.
So there's there's an answer to
871
00:49:14,000 --> 00:49:15,360
part of it.
The other player, you have a
872
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,600
Glen F, right?
One of them is very good.
873
00:49:19,320 --> 00:49:23,240
One of them is not very good,
but is legacy name brand, right?
874
00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:27,800
I just think they're leaning
towards that, right?
875
00:49:28,160 --> 00:49:31,840
Like the Jacasmo signing, like
whatever we want to just call it
876
00:49:31,840 --> 00:49:36,280
was absolutely cronyism.
Just not a good assume.
877
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,160
Like they've they've gone done
well, but like they kind of
878
00:49:38,160 --> 00:49:41,080
struggled a little bit.
I'm not saying they would have
879
00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:45,160
done like way better with with
Cypher as well, but there is
880
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:49,000
done better than well.
They would have done better with
881
00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,120
with Cypher and Chasma than they
would have done with.
882
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:56,080
Well, yeah, it's it's it's like
when you've got the the thing of
883
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,920
the owner or whoever it was
coming out and being like, well,
884
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:02,680
look, it was either Cipher and
Jacasmo or Crimson Jacasmo.
885
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:06,560
These aren't equivalent players.
Like what are you talking about?
886
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:11,600
This wasn't these this isn't an
overall this is APR like we've
887
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:13,480
got to cover our own backstage
because we're getting a ton of
888
00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:18,000
shit.
It was cronyism and I I see here
889
00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:22,000
Charlie has brought up the when
we are as a free we are speaking
890
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:26,520
Ukrainian all the time quote
from Jacasmo and what I what I
891
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:32,600
want to say to that is like this
is a smart headline from HLTVI
892
00:50:32,880 --> 00:50:34,000
don't know who did the
interview.
893
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:36,880
This is this is this is gotcha
journalism, right?
894
00:50:37,480 --> 00:50:39,240
It might be our old mate Harry
who did it.
895
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,360
I think he does the opening
stages majors.
896
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:47,520
But this is this is quickbait
innocence because it it it's
897
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,800
praying on that hatred, but it.
Was a Jean.
898
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,280
Jean wrote it some some live.
How don't you say it but.
899
00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:58,440
Oh, OK.
Yeah, but like do you not think
900
00:50:58,440 --> 00:51:01,880
Kesra are in Euro?
Euro Yuri speak to each other in
901
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,280
Portuguese when they're in A2
VX?
902
00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:07,400
Do you not think Apex and Zaibu
speak to each other in French?
903
00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:11,440
Well, there's something vitality
do in practice, which they spoke
904
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:14,120
about in a vlog was they do,
they'll do they.
905
00:51:14,120 --> 00:51:16,680
Just piss about speaking in.
Their they do own language
906
00:51:16,680 --> 00:51:18,800
rounds, yeah, which I think is
quite cool actually, to sort of
907
00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:22,240
see how your communication and
and like I guess team team
908
00:51:22,240 --> 00:51:24,720
sensibilities are outside of
woods, which is cool.
909
00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:27,840
Yeah, this is a good headline
for sure.
910
00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:31,680
But I do think like like this,
this is what's built the end of
911
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,200
the drum of the Danish Optic
project when it was like them
912
00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:42,720
and Stanislaw and someone else.
Yeah, because it's it's the
913
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:47,920
issue, the issue they had there
was it was Stanislaw and.
914
00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:49,960
Was it Shazam?
Shazam.
915
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:53,200
It was Stanislaw and Shazam with
config.
916
00:51:54,400 --> 00:51:58,000
Test occasion B No not has such
gate.
917
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,560
Yeah, Gate.
Yeah, I think Tessa's were in
918
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,960
before or after that different
liner because it was the MSL or
919
00:52:03,960 --> 00:52:13,160
Snappy Yeah, MSL one where what
happens is you just have two
920
00:52:13,160 --> 00:52:15,920
conflicting cultures because
Denmark and Sweden aren't so far
921
00:52:15,920 --> 00:52:20,280
apart and Vitality had the same
thing.
922
00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:25,840
So I woo Apex, Masuta and.
Magic and debris.
923
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:31,200
Magic and debris you you need
more than two cultures in a team
924
00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:34,640
otherwise you get a culture
class and you don't get a team
925
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:39,560
that can properly mix.
So I think the likelihood of
926
00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:45,920
what happens is that Australis
football fanatic to go Ukrainian
927
00:52:46,320 --> 00:52:51,920
Australis will by blame it.
I think is is probably what
928
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:55,560
happens because I think they
will soon come to the
929
00:52:55,560 --> 00:52:58,840
realization that we all know is
true.
930
00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,480
You cannot hope to be a title
contending Danish team without
931
00:53:02,480 --> 00:53:06,600
blame F is.
Say what you like about Blame F
932
00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:10,200
and the fact he's never won fuck
all whatever, he is the best
933
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:15,080
player in Denmark.
Honestly, I'm not even argue I I
934
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:17,200
I'm.
Quite comfortably.
935
00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:20,320
So he's comfort like it's, it's
not even close.
936
00:53:20,320 --> 00:53:26,040
So like you kind of need him,
kind of need Tesses when he
937
00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:28,840
inevitably loses his spot and
then we can actually start
938
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:33,080
talking about like Australis
again because like hooksy Tesses
939
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:37,160
blame F device, who is still
serviceable on the level of
940
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,760
orpas these days, if not more
inconsistent nowadays.
941
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:44,840
And a a fifth player.
It's not a bad team at all.
942
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:47,760
It's really not a bad team at
all.
943
00:53:48,120 --> 00:53:51,440
No, it's not.
Anyway.
944
00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,200
Enough for that.
We didn't talk about them.
945
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:54,280
Yeah.
Yeah.
946
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,560
Also, yeah, just fuck for that.
Just just as per Cypher.
947
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:02,560
And we can keep on with the
Ukrainians bait.
948
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:07,960
They were OK.
Like they're inconsistent.
949
00:54:08,240 --> 00:54:10,760
Sometimes they looked way too
good for the stage, sometimes
950
00:54:10,760 --> 00:54:14,200
they looked awful.
That the M80 game, they looked
951
00:54:14,200 --> 00:54:18,560
absolutely abysmal.
Head Trick has performed a lot
952
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,400
better, which is a good sign for
them.
953
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:25,760
And so as Ken Sisor.
He had some slow starts, but he
954
00:54:25,760 --> 00:54:29,240
also put some games on his back,
which when we talk about, you
955
00:54:29,240 --> 00:54:31,600
know, fanatic, go for Ukrainian.
He's a name I'd definitely look
956
00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:34,800
at if I was Samuel's son.
Over the fox.
957
00:54:34,800 --> 00:54:37,240
That GM.
Yeah, well, because he's he's,
958
00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:40,840
it's aggressive start, right.
But the interesting thing about
959
00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:44,960
it is that he's now taking 10%
less opening jewels.
960
00:54:45,160 --> 00:54:48,520
He's still the holiest, but he
was taking like a ridiculous
961
00:54:48,520 --> 00:54:50,800
degree.
And it's clearly beneficial for
962
00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:53,440
him because now it's not just
like throw Kensis or at the wall
963
00:54:53,440 --> 00:54:55,880
and see what he can actually hit
on on his way there.
964
00:54:57,760 --> 00:55:00,440
I'm I'm sure I can have to check
the data but I guess clutch such
965
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:03,880
will be way better now because
he was also alive more and
966
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:05,960
winning more clutches at least
just from watching the games it
967
00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:07,440
felt like.
Yeah, yeah.
968
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:09,200
So it's clearly a benefit for
them.
969
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:11,560
Still see them going out in the
next stage.
970
00:55:13,600 --> 00:55:15,160
But yeah, they did what was
expected of them.
971
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:22,000
Nip, you go with them because
they they're your team, so.
972
00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:23,360
They are.
I mean, I'm.
973
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:26,280
Intrigued to hear what you say.
I've got I've got my own take to
974
00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,200
get to.
But yeah, you can take the floor
975
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,040
first, mate.
They never should have lost to
976
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:33,960
NRG.
Realistically no, just just just
977
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:37,520
shouldn't have.
I think this team is is still
978
00:55:37,520 --> 00:55:43,280
one move from being pretty
pretty solid as a 1.5 sort of
979
00:55:43,320 --> 00:55:47,240
gatekeeper team.
Kaspersky is is legit.
980
00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:51,040
He's really good.
I think any doubts about him
981
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:53,400
were were were were were quelled
quite quickly.
982
00:55:54,000 --> 00:55:55,160
Wrinkles had a pretty good
tournament.
983
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,440
He he's missed a few.
He had a pretty pretty bad
984
00:55:57,440 --> 00:56:03,520
series against them against
phase, I think, but he's also
985
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,240
like been a very good signing.
Snappy's making it work in in
986
00:56:06,240 --> 00:56:09,200
this team.
I do think Ajax is the weakest
987
00:56:09,200 --> 00:56:11,800
link, but he also just had some
good performances.
988
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:13,720
He he got some clutches.
He was having some really
989
00:56:13,720 --> 00:56:15,880
impactful rounds.
So I'm not going to call for his
990
00:56:15,880 --> 00:56:20,240
head just yet and shush again.
I think he's one of the most
991
00:56:20,240 --> 00:56:21,600
underrated players.
I think he's one of the bad
992
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:26,000
players in in Denmark.
I do would like to see Tessa's
993
00:56:26,080 --> 00:56:28,160
replace your jokes in in the
future.
994
00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:30,440
I think that's like a very good
role for role swap.
995
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:35,440
And I kind of just want the team
to have a somewhat Nordic call,
996
00:56:36,600 --> 00:56:37,520
even though I prefer to be
Swedish.
997
00:56:38,920 --> 00:56:40,320
But they won't be winning things
in the Swedish.
998
00:56:41,360 --> 00:56:44,840
Yeah, the phase game I think is
testament to to their their prep
999
00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,960
and their practice as well.
Yeah, better without you.
1000
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:52,720
Listen, they haven't got top 8
yet, right.
1001
00:56:52,720 --> 00:56:58,480
So we'll see that match against
failure.
1002
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,080
Yeah, it was overpass and I
think they just rotations,
1003
00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:07,000
timings, counters, steps and
stuff, which is perfect.
1004
00:57:08,240 --> 00:57:09,120
They've already done their
homework.
1005
00:57:09,120 --> 00:57:13,600
Obviously that's a little bit
worrying that phase were so
1006
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:16,840
easily counted.
It was 30 and 8, which I don't
1007
00:57:16,840 --> 00:57:20,640
think is like that crazy of a
score line, but against the team
1008
00:57:20,640 --> 00:57:24,320
with the star power, supposedly
a phase like on paper compared
1009
00:57:24,320 --> 00:57:30,360
to what Nip have, I think that's
quite, quite a good win to get.
1010
00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:34,600
OK.
Your turn to to prove me wrong.
1011
00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:40,160
I've not really I've not really
got this shit to to prove you
1012
00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:40,920
wrong.
I've.
1013
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,040
Just also Ujix got 6 kills
against phase, another pass.
1014
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:49,080
Yeah, I've, I've just got some
opinions on them, right?
1015
00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:55,160
And my opinions are, I'd say,
pretty simple.
1016
00:57:58,000 --> 00:57:59,880
I like this team.
I do.
1017
00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:02,840
Good.
I'm not sure I believe in this
1018
00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:07,240
team.
They have done what they needed
1019
00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:16,840
to in being here.
But like, OK, let me does get
1020
00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:20,080
worse in the past three months.
Past six months is better, but
1021
00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,560
last three months they've played
31 maps.
1022
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:31,920
Wrinkle has a naughty .96 you
jerks. 1.08 Kaspersky 1.18
1023
00:58:32,160 --> 00:58:35,160
Kaspersky is a genuine star, you
jerks.
1024
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:43,000
Maybe he's good enough and last
six months for the sake of it.
1025
00:58:44,960 --> 00:58:48,800
Shush goes up from 0.98 to 1.06
in the last six months, and
1026
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:53,680
Wrinkle goes up to 1.07.
So there are things in this team
1027
00:58:53,680 --> 00:58:58,200
that do work but maybe don't
work all the time.
1028
00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:04,960
I think there's just one or one
or two players away from being
1029
00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:08,480
like where I know Snappy wants
them to be.
1030
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:14,480
And how long can you hold on to
Kaspersky before you get those?
1031
00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:17,200
Because improving on Wrinkle is
going to be incredibly hard.
1032
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:20,960
This is this is the issue.
If if wrinkle struggles more
1033
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:24,120
against big teams, well, you're
not going to improve on him
1034
00:59:24,120 --> 00:59:27,400
either.
So like, that will become a
1035
00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:30,560
ceiling.
If you jerks, you can't help him
1036
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:34,400
get impact against big teams
consistently, that's also going
1037
00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:40,120
to be a problem.
So yeah, I'm just, I'm just not
1038
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:44,600
sure I believe that.
Can they become a gatekeeper?
1039
00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:46,840
Yes.
But that is not good enough for
1040
00:59:46,840 --> 00:59:48,840
what Snappy wants them to be,
and it's not good enough for
1041
00:59:48,840 --> 00:59:51,160
what the NIP organization wants
them to be.
1042
00:59:51,480 --> 00:59:55,640
So I'm not sure I necessarily
really believe in this project
1043
00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,200
as much as I like it.
Does that make sense do.
1044
00:59:59,080 --> 01:00:00,200
You think they make it for the
next stage?
1045
01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:10,720
I think of the teams that have
gone through.
1046
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:30,300
They have the, I think, I think
of the teams that have gone
1047
01:00:30,300 --> 01:00:34,900
through, there are three teams
that are most likely to go
1048
01:00:34,900 --> 01:00:38,980
through to stage 3.
One of those teams I think could
1049
01:00:38,980 --> 01:00:42,980
also just crash out.
That team is Fly Quest.
1050
01:00:43,140 --> 01:00:44,900
I think the other two teams are
Mae and Nip.
1051
01:00:44,900 --> 01:00:45,140
Cool.
OK.
1052
01:00:48,780 --> 01:00:56,120
So yeah, and the final bracket
is the free 2 bracket.
1053
01:00:57,480 --> 01:01:02,040
I think we can Imperial.
We're not really going to talk
1054
01:01:02,040 --> 01:01:03,360
about you, Paravicius.
Thanks for.
1055
01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:05,400
The Pickems.
Thanks for the pickems, Cheers
1056
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:06,600
for the pickems, cheers for the
pickems.
1057
01:01:06,600 --> 01:01:08,560
Cheers for an entertaining last
game of the stage.
1058
01:01:08,560 --> 01:01:10,440
Although fuck you for making it
take so long.
1059
01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,720
I do, actually.
No, actually, I do want to
1060
01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:19,120
quickly just say Jane.
I fucking want to boring
1061
01:01:19,120 --> 01:01:23,360
perverse player Jameis.
Oh what a general like Jame is
1062
01:01:23,360 --> 01:01:28,360
such a weird paradox because
he's simultaneously like
1063
01:01:30,120 --> 01:01:35,680
overrated to all fuckery but
also severely underappreciated.
1064
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:37,880
Not underrated,
underappreciated.
1065
01:01:39,960 --> 01:01:45,360
I don't think he gets he's.
Necessarily enough to stage 2.
1066
01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:50,480
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But my God, is he overrated.
1067
01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:53,040
Like, Oh yeah, but he won a
major and like, occasionally VP
1068
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:55,200
looked good.
Yeah, but VP were also crap.
1069
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:58,640
They were crap.
They were a team that, yeah,
1070
01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,560
were maybe making playoffs in a
week time in Counter Strike.
1071
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:04,280
They were never winning events.
They were only winning
1072
01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:06,120
challenges.
Challenges, yeah.
1073
01:02:06,360 --> 01:02:09,160
And they they won a major that
is probably the worst major of
1074
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:13,280
all time probably.
It's good fun to be there, but
1075
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:14,320
yeah, it wasn't it wasn't a
great.
1076
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:16,200
Game yeah, I'm sure it was good
fun to be there because you were
1077
01:02:16,200 --> 01:02:20,360
just eating barbecue and
watching like, I don't know what
1078
01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:22,960
what did you go and see one
night didn't you didn't you go
1079
01:02:22,960 --> 01:02:23,720
see a gig?
Him I.
1080
01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:26,320
Didn't go and see Arctic
Monkeys, but a few people did.
1081
01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:29,200
Arctic Monkeys played in the in
the arena the day before we set
1082
01:02:29,200 --> 01:02:29,840
up.
Yeah.
1083
01:02:30,480 --> 01:02:34,760
No, I didn't go unfortunately.
But like, fucking hell man, he
1084
01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:36,800
lurks with an orp for fuck's
sake.
1085
01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:39,960
Like I kind of fucked with one.
In that last.
1086
01:02:40,280 --> 01:02:43,160
In that.
Last game against Legacy inferno
1087
01:02:43,240 --> 01:02:47,800
was such a mess because the CT
sites there was a round where
1088
01:02:48,040 --> 01:02:50,360
everyone else was on a bike.
He's just got like a fucking
1089
01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:54,480
P250 armour and a smoke and the
entire game plan is to save.
1090
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,880
Now this would be fine if they
weren't already 10 five down.
1091
01:02:58,440 --> 01:03:00,480
Just he had.
He had.
1092
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:04,280
At.
Least 3000 in the bank.
1093
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,840
Buy a fucking M4 and go for the
round you cunt.
1094
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,680
You are 10 five down.
There's a round and does too
1095
01:03:12,120 --> 01:03:15,600
where it's it's A1V4 for Jay and
he's only just walking out along
1096
01:03:15,600 --> 01:03:19,040
with you and he just like gets
around the corner and then just
1097
01:03:19,040 --> 01:03:21,320
turns around and saves.
I just.
1098
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:23,600
Look.
I love his commitment to the bit
1099
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:25,360
I got.
I've got to applaud it in that
1100
01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:29,800
way.
Look and.
1101
01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:31,800
And this is where the paradox
continues.
1102
01:03:32,640 --> 01:03:37,320
VP were not wrong to kick Jayme,
but it was also the worst thing
1103
01:03:37,320 --> 01:03:39,200
they could have ever done right
Well.
1104
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:41,600
They haven't got any better
sense of this so to be.
1105
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:47,600
Kicked for him, but he's just
like, there's always going to be
1106
01:03:47,600 --> 01:03:49,280
a limit.
With Jane, because he just.
1107
01:03:50,200 --> 01:03:53,800
His style.
His style operates in the same
1108
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:56,360
way that Carrie, it insists upon
itself.
1109
01:03:57,120 --> 01:03:59,880
Well, yeah, it insists.
Upon itself and before.
1110
01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,560
Beltinok woke up in that game
against Legacy.
1111
01:04:02,560 --> 01:04:04,360
They look, thank you.
Thank you for doing that.
1112
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:07,880
Yeah, they look so down.
And out and.
1113
01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:12,640
I just don't think that's good.
I know they've been very.
1114
01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:15,520
Consistent playing against
absolute fucking bums online,
1115
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:18,400
but I don't think that's good
when you get to this level and I
1116
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:28,720
think they may struggle in the
next stage anyway phase I'm I'm
1117
01:04:28,720 --> 01:04:30,920
just going to I'm just going to
talk for a second.
1118
01:04:30,920 --> 01:04:35,600
You can do that because I'm.
Going to I.
1119
01:04:35,600 --> 01:04:39,240
Honestly don't think.
It would be that bad if they
1120
01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:42,320
sold their entire roster and
just backed out of Counter
1121
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,960
Strike.
This team is that.
1122
01:04:45,960 --> 01:04:48,200
Bad.
It is that terrible.
1123
01:04:49,120 --> 01:04:53,960
Like Carrigan needs to retire.
It's it's fucking over.
1124
01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:58,360
It's it's so over with Carrigan
and I quote, he has to go blood.
1125
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:01,480
He he does indeed have to go
blood.
1126
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:07,400
Brokie is fucking terrible.
Like he he's so done in top
1127
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:11,920
level CS.
So Jacob also just completely
1128
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:15,080
lost.
Like fair play to fucking
1129
01:05:15,080 --> 01:05:17,640
Kerrigan's misses because that
must have been some good suck
1130
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:21,560
for Kerrigan to just completely
ignore all of his instincts
1131
01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:25,640
about Counter Strike.
Well I've done it now so fuck
1132
01:05:25,640 --> 01:05:29,960
off.
Twists, frozen, fucking allied.
1133
01:05:29,960 --> 01:05:34,200
Get yourself the fuck out of
this team because you are so
1134
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,480
much better than it.
Get both of you get on the phone
1135
01:05:36,480 --> 01:05:38,320
to Navi.
Just get yourself over there.
1136
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,680
Like go and play with Alexi B
and have a good time.
1137
01:05:42,000 --> 01:05:45,160
I just want to touch on a rumor
that's.
1138
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:50,960
Circulated among circles that
the reason face bench rain and
1139
01:05:50,960 --> 01:05:57,960
sign Jacob was because of twists
salary expectations and that
1140
01:05:57,960 --> 01:06:00,520
they can't afford to keep both
rain and twists.
1141
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:04,440
But this, so this is I have no
evidence if that's that.
1142
01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:10,280
Claim is is is.
Substantial or not, but I, I.
1143
01:06:10,280 --> 01:06:11,760
Don't think it's unreasonable,
honestly.
1144
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:16,400
Yeah, but this is not good luck.
But, and just because Charlie.
1145
01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:17,880
'S brought foreign to it here
saying.
1146
01:06:17,880 --> 01:06:19,600
Brokey.
Has bad numbers for an IGL,
1147
01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:21,960
never mind an awful with an
expensive gun who goes first
1148
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:25,320
slash early less than seemingly
every other tier one author.
1149
01:06:25,320 --> 01:06:28,680
This is a historic level of bad.
He's now like cursy levels.
1150
01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:30,720
Fucking Smith's levels.
Whoever the fuck you want to say
1151
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:36,360
like he's awful and just on the
third levels than looming levels
1152
01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:36,840
in.
Fact.
1153
01:06:36,840 --> 01:06:39,280
He might make me look good.
The Latvian looming.
1154
01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:45,440
So Shiro has a opening kill.
Percentage of 12% or opening
1155
01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:49,120
attempts, percentage of 12% on
the Teesides brokie is 8%.
1156
01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:51,880
The guy, the guy's a waste of
time.
1157
01:06:51,880 --> 01:06:53,360
He's a waste.
Of time at this point.
1158
01:06:54,040 --> 01:06:58,920
And like I just don't, I don't
know what phase do because.
1159
01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:00,760
Jacob, clearly.
Isn't good good enough.
1160
01:07:00,760 --> 01:07:03,520
Carrigan is gone, Brokie is
gone.
1161
01:07:04,800 --> 01:07:06,400
You need to replace free
players.
1162
01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:10,840
So maybe, just maybe, if they
had a player who wants to
1163
01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:14,600
transition to an IGL, maybe they
shouldn't have sold him.
1164
01:07:15,360 --> 01:07:17,680
Maybe they shouldn't have let
him go to 100 fees.
1165
01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:19,600
Maybe they should have kept him
and been like, you know what?
1166
01:07:19,600 --> 01:07:22,240
You can be our IGL.
Carrigan off you fuck.
1167
01:07:23,000 --> 01:07:24,000
Maybe that's what they should
have done.
1168
01:07:24,400 --> 01:07:26,960
It will be a good day. 100
Thieves inevitably line up
1169
01:07:26,960 --> 01:07:29,840
against phase.
In in a bracket and they just
1170
01:07:29,840 --> 01:07:31,520
fuck out of them.
Kick fuck out of them, yeah.
1171
01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:35,200
Yeah.
Well, I think like I don't have.
1172
01:07:35,200 --> 01:07:37,120
To actually you, you, yeah, I
don't.
1173
01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:38,640
I don't want to talk about it
more because.
1174
01:07:38,640 --> 01:07:41,320
It will make me angry.
But I would like to bring bring
1175
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,760
up the take of the week because
I think this is a great final
1176
01:07:43,760 --> 01:07:46,960
point to leave them on.
This is the Greg's Festivate
1177
01:07:46,960 --> 01:07:48,640
sponsored to take this come
from.
1178
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:54,760
Rory festive bait.
Greg's where he said replacing
1179
01:07:54,760 --> 01:07:58,160
Carrigan will be tough but a
nought .85 rating in the last
1180
01:07:58,160 --> 01:08:02,400
three months is a liability.
Low key see how much the MAT
1181
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:05,520
core go for and try to get SIM
lake and slacks.
1182
01:08:05,800 --> 01:08:11,040
Now this is really really
unlikely because that is an
1183
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:13,720
expensive core.
M80 do not have cheap buyouts
1184
01:08:15,600 --> 01:08:22,840
but if you do sell frozen and
maybe even twist I don't know
1185
01:08:23,680 --> 01:08:31,359
sin like slacks and then hexed
you become an NA team.
1186
01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,279
And Swisher, the major just sign
NA.
1187
01:08:33,399 --> 01:08:37,200
Team Yeah.
But you become an NA team.
1188
01:08:38,359 --> 01:08:42,960
You're guaranteed to be at the
major and you can slowly upgrade
1189
01:08:42,960 --> 01:08:45,760
again phase.
This is probably the best
1190
01:08:45,760 --> 01:08:49,000
outcome for you at this point
because you are not good.
1191
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:52,920
You are not going to be good and
Frozen is not going to sign
1192
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,080
another contract so you're just
going to have exactly what
1193
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:58,000
happened with Robs and twists
where they're going to leave for
1194
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:00,160
fuckle and you're going to look
like Dick heads again.
1195
01:09:01,720 --> 01:09:05,640
Does phase have AGM?
Or is it?
1196
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:06,399
Is it just?
Is it?
1197
01:09:06,399 --> 01:09:08,560
Just Carrigan.
Well, it's like.
1198
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:11,920
No, he's a team Eddie.
'S A-Team Eddie, right?
1199
01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:14,520
Yeah, I don't really.
Have to say over the.
1200
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:17,160
Decisions they're making because
they've just historically made
1201
01:09:17,160 --> 01:09:18,960
very appalling ones.
Yeah.
1202
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:21,040
So like, I actually, I really
like this take.
1203
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:23,160
I think sin.
Lake and Slacks would improve
1204
01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:26,399
the team.
It's a genuine aggressive star.
1205
01:09:27,160 --> 01:09:30,800
Like if you get those 3.
With frozen and twist, I
1206
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:34,000
actually think this team could
do some real fucking damage.
1207
01:09:35,160 --> 01:09:37,560
Slacks is better than Brokie,
which I can't believe I'm
1208
01:09:37,560 --> 01:09:39,120
fucking saying yeah, because
you're not.
1209
01:09:39,200 --> 01:09:41,680
You're not on the tracks and
Frozen twists and.
1210
01:09:41,680 --> 01:09:44,080
Frozen are superstars and Lake
has the potential to be a.
1211
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:48,040
Superstar and I really like Sin.
I think you get rid of Neo as
1212
01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:51,680
well.
Bring death in, it's pretty
1213
01:09:51,680 --> 01:09:53,200
good.
Honestly it's a little good,
1214
01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:54,640
good for the fan base for like
phase.
1215
01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:58,600
Phase are American like I know
it's not even.
1216
01:09:58,600 --> 01:10:01,440
Like an American.
Core really is it, but like
1217
01:10:01,440 --> 01:10:04,040
Lake's kind of a.
Lake.
1218
01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:05,760
Will need to leave NA if he
wants to.
1219
01:10:05,760 --> 01:10:09,880
Have a successful career.
I feel to the potential he has
1220
01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:13,800
so I think it makes sense.
I'd like to see a core of Mai
1221
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:15,200
think go to a.
Stronger team.
1222
01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:20,200
I think it's just this phase.
This gammon Asian.
1223
01:10:23,840 --> 01:10:26,920
Maybe definitely those two
teams, but I don't think we.
1224
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,480
That these can't be the visions
we see going into next year,
1225
01:10:29,480 --> 01:10:30,520
going into the cracker and
stuff?
1226
01:10:31,360 --> 01:10:33,920
No, I agree.
It just can't be right.
1227
01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:35,400
Let's bring this.
Podcast to an end with
1228
01:10:35,400 --> 01:10:36,760
something.
Fun Charlie bring.
1229
01:10:36,760 --> 01:10:42,040
Up the major predictor please.
OK, click on stage 2.
1230
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:44,360
We haven't seen the.
Opening games, by the way.
1231
01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:46,400
Or at least I haven't.
We have now.
1232
01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,680
Oh, Aurora M80.
That's interesting liquid.
1233
01:10:51,680 --> 01:10:54,160
I just go down, drive away.
Yeah.
1234
01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,240
M80 take that.
Aurora are.
1235
01:10:57,560 --> 01:10:59,640
Cold stars frequently M80 on a
good, yeah.
1236
01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:02,280
So have M80 written in that I
think.
1237
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,680
Navi will just five.
Power fly quest I think it'd.
1238
01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:09,080
Probably be closer than it
should be, but I think Navi
1239
01:11:09,080 --> 01:11:14,040
should take that, yeah.
Bait beet liquid.
1240
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:19,280
That I'm not sure, Ron.
Fnatic 3D Max is a.
1241
01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:20,920
Fucking that's a toss up,
Bennett.
1242
01:11:21,400 --> 01:11:26,680
I think Fnatic will have it, no?
No, I think free D Max, free D
1243
01:11:26,680 --> 01:11:29,880
Max, Australis, NIP Nova toss up
genuinely.
1244
01:11:29,920 --> 01:11:31,600
Really depends what australis
you get.
1245
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:37,040
I'm going to go for NIP though.
I'm happy to for you to take
1246
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:38,600
that result and.
Take that decision for me.
1247
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:44,240
Tyloo Paravision, Jane Will.
Perve that game to a win.
1248
01:11:44,240 --> 01:11:53,160
So paravision MIBR imperial MIBR
passion UA phase.
1249
01:11:56,040 --> 01:11:58,600
I can't believe this is a game I
have to think about in 2025.
1250
01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:08,750
I am going to say.
Charlie, let me just see some
1251
01:12:08,750 --> 01:12:15,560
click on phase, yeah?
Yeah, they win that one.
1252
01:12:15,560 --> 01:12:17,600
They lose against Navi.
They ain't.
1253
01:12:17,600 --> 01:12:18,960
Winning two best of ones.
I know.
1254
01:12:18,960 --> 01:12:20,000
Faye's clan.
Yeah.
1255
01:12:21,680 --> 01:12:23,840
Cool. 3D Max will beat.
Paravision.
1256
01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:27,600
Yeah, because it just got more
experience.
1257
01:12:30,440 --> 01:12:32,880
NIP will beat MIBR.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1258
01:12:34,080 --> 01:12:36,680
And MAT will.
Beat bait again.
1259
01:12:37,000 --> 01:12:39,640
Yeah, O1.

1260
01:12:39,640 --> 01:12:42,560

Liquid Beat Fanatic.
1261
01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:47,600
Liquid beat fanatic.
Stralis beat Fly.
1262
01:12:47,600 --> 01:12:52,200
Quest, I don't know passion's.
Beat Tyler though.
1263
01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:54,520
And passion.
You may beat Tyler.
1264
01:12:58,040 --> 01:13:03,200
Think 3D Max take M80 they go 3
O you reckon?
1265
01:13:04,680 --> 01:13:06,680
Well, like 3.
D Max are well rested now.
1266
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:09,920
Like 3D Max.
Are a good team and also you
1267
01:13:09,920 --> 01:13:11,960
should just don't put a favorite
in.
1268
01:13:11,960 --> 01:13:13,520
A Frio slot, right?
I feel like that's something
1269
01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:17,760
we've learned.
And Navido beat Nip.
1270
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:21,640
Yeah, I'm fine with that.
Bait.
1271
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:23,880
Passion UA, That's got to be.
Bait, surely?
1272
01:13:25,880 --> 01:13:33,200
Yeah, yeah.
Phase liquid liquid I kind.
1273
01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:37,480
Of want to say phase.
No liquid.
1274
01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:38,240
Liquid.
Liquid.
1275
01:13:38,280 --> 01:13:39,320
No.
I'm happy with Liquid.
1276
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:44,680
Aurora Paravision That's an
interesting one.
1277
01:13:45,240 --> 01:13:46,800
It just depends which team shows
up on it's.
1278
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:49,320
It's like such a.
Smelly game, honestly.
1279
01:13:49,320 --> 01:13:52,760
Such a really stinky game, I'm
going to say.
1280
01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:54,840
Honestly, Paravision.
Oh.
1281
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:57,640
I was going to say.
Aurora.
1282
01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:00,560
Charlie, you decide.
You make your pick.
1283
01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:06,560
OK, Paula, Paula, he's gone for
Para Vision.
1284
01:14:06,560 --> 01:14:08,640
Charlotte's beat MOBR.
I think, yeah.
1285
01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,560
Charlotte's beat MOBR.
And then like crispy imperial
1286
01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:14,760
like.
Crispy imperial and fanatic beat
1287
01:14:14,760 --> 01:14:18,640
Tyler I think.
I don't think Tyler.
1288
01:14:18,640 --> 01:14:21,640
Yeah, I agree, fanatic.
Beat Tyler.
1289
01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:25,320
If you could change that one,
please produce Charlie.
1290
01:14:26,640 --> 01:14:29,520
OK, MIT paravision.
That's interesting.
1291
01:14:32,400 --> 01:14:34,080
I'm going to say MAT.
Because they've impressed me.
1292
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:37,080
I don't think power vision.
Power Vision should have done
1293
01:14:37,080 --> 01:14:38,240
better than they did.
They should have one more
1294
01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:40,000
cleanly.
So I think they could choke out
1295
01:14:40,160 --> 01:14:46,960
here, I'm going to say.
Liquid do beatnip.
1296
01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:51,040
Yeah, I shouldn't.
Have a belt on your favorite
1297
01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:53,960
team right so.
I'm happy to go with that, Yeah.
1298
01:14:54,200 --> 01:15:02,000
And I think a Charlotte be bait.
A strong speed bait phase do
1299
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:08,120
beat MIBR fly quest.
Do beat passion UA?
1300
01:15:10,640 --> 01:15:11,560
And Aurora.
Aurora.
1301
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:13,080
Beat fanatic.
Yeah, Cool.
1302
01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:16,720
I'll put that.
Nip, Aurora.
1303
01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:20,120
Now I'm going to bet on my team
and pick.
1304
01:15:20,120 --> 01:15:23,000
Nip I.
Want to go for Aurora?
1305
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:29,560
Charlie, you.
Decide he's sticking with Aurora
1306
01:15:31,760 --> 01:15:40,560
Bait Fly Quest.
Bait, bait, Yeah.
1307
01:15:44,400 --> 01:15:47,560
Paravision phase, I think.
Phase somehow.
1308
01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:51,400
Stink it through again man fuck.
Phase somehow stink it through
1309
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:52,160
again.
I agree.
1310
01:15:53,320 --> 01:15:59,920
So that leaves us with Navi 3O
with 3D Max free one, M80, Team
1311
01:15:59,920 --> 01:16:03,960
Liquid Australis 32 Bait Phase
Kind, Aurora 2 free NIT
1312
01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:08,400
Paravision, Fly Quest one, Free
Fanatic, MIBR, Passion UA and O3
1313
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:14,760
Imperial and Thai Loop.
Personally, I think that looks
1314
01:16:14,760 --> 01:16:19,040
all right.
It's not a problem, no.
1315
01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:23,400
Pickups are fucking hard these
days man.
1316
01:16:23,400 --> 01:16:24,400
Now.
Now that you can't do.
1317
01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:27,640
The the you know.
Yeah, yeah, 33-O team gets you a
1318
01:16:27,640 --> 01:16:31,280
point either way.
Yeah, it's just.
1319
01:16:31,640 --> 01:16:33,720
It's but even.
This even this field.
1320
01:16:33,720 --> 01:16:35,320
Is 3 points.
On the final.
1321
01:16:35,320 --> 01:16:36,880
Day, Does this stay major to
you?
1322
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:40,000
No, not really.
But with three points on the
1323
01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:41,360
final.
Day Sure, we are both.
1324
01:16:41,360 --> 01:16:47,120
Still in the Diamond Race.
So I think with that, it's time
1325
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:49,200
to fuck off.
I've got a newsletter, right?
1326
01:16:49,400 --> 01:16:52,480
I'm fucking shattered.
Yeah, I've got bad to have.
1327
01:16:52,800 --> 01:16:56,040
We will be back normal time.
Next week.
1328
01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:57,960
Because the days of the major
work.
1329
01:16:57,960 --> 01:17:00,720
But sorry for the delay if you
actually missed it this week,
1330
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:04,760
you sad little bastards.
But for the few days we'll be
1331
01:17:04,760 --> 01:17:09,560
away, I will remain Sam.
I'll try to remain Jack
1332
01:17:10,160 --> 01:17:12,840
hopefully and Charlie will May.
Or may not remain.
1333
01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:16,000
Charlie will face much confusion
during that time, but he will
1334
01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:18,960
most.
Likely remain Charlie James
1335
01:17:18,960 --> 01:17:21,240
hasn't made a thumbnail this
week because it's Thanksgiving.
1336
01:17:21,960 --> 01:17:26,160
But James, I'm thankful for all
of you, James and subscribers.

01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:38,080
