16-2-2014 23:29

GamePub expectedly came out on top of SteelSeries CS:GO Calling, a LAN event in Belgrade, Serbia, defeating HEADSHOTBG in the final 2-0 (16-9 on de_nuke, 19-16 on de_inferno).

After two days of battle at SteelSeries CS:GO Calling, this tournament that gathered all the best teams from the Balkans culminated with a grand final between GamePub and Bulgaria's best team HEADSHOTBG.

Earlier in the day the SLTV StarSeries VIII third place finishers topped another Bulgarian side 1Stood in the quarter-final (16-7 on de_inferno, 16-3 on de_nuke), and then Macedonians ENTiTY in the semi-final (16-11 on de_nuke, 16-8 on de_inferno).

On the other side of the bracket HSBG made light work of Hungarians Concussion (16-3 on de_nuke, 16-7 on de_inferno) in their quarter-final, and then knocked out E-Frag in the semis 2-0 (16-8 on de_mirage, 16-12 on de_nuke).

Even though both teams entered the grand final without dropping a map, GamePub were still considered favorites. The Bulgarians managed to put up a solid fight, especially on the second map, but the Serbian-Bosnian-Macedonian combo was more successful in the end, winning 2-0 (16-9 on de_nuke, 19-16 on de_inferno).

NENO and Niko, both star of the Balkans! Good job guys!

2014-02-16 23:37

Bravo.

2014-02-16 23:46

HSBG did a good job though :-)

Niko ez pz.

2014-02-16 23:48

it was a good tournament, i am looking forward to seeing some slovenian contenders on balkan lan events in the future :) good job gamepub once again; top4 teams are on another level than the rest, but gamepub are clearly the best atm.

The other teams especially HSBG dont have their motivation, sponsors, some normal bootcamp centers, internet... we have just 1 active team in our "scene" and thats it HSBG so its normal but we show some good stuff. HSBG also top 3 @ Balkans. Wp, Gp

yeah you dont need to explain, i know conditions for pro gaming are terrible all over balkans (in serbia too) :) hsbg are slowly improving, now they're top2 balkans again (they werent a few months back). but i dont see them reaching the level of hsbg geko-minko-pnshr-shemeta-milenko/bubble soon. same goes for entity, they are showing a lot of improvement, but it doesnt seem likely they'll be beating gamepub regularly any time soon.

2014-02-17 00:43

And we have 2, maybe 3 teams now.. Back in 1.6 it was always HSBG and BGDonLINE in grand finals, and those 2 teams were without competition in their home countries, like GP and HSBG now.. I hope that this will boost Entity, and maybe Saints, TeG, and couple more Balkan teams so we can watch more intense tournaments :)

actually ur wrong ENTITY AND HSBG WERE better 1.6 from bgdonline.. tbh

Well, I don't agree with that, on almost every tournament one of those teams won, and they could beat eachother.

2014-02-17 22:51

entity have always been at least as good as hsbg on balkan lans, while bgd was clearly 3rd in the later years.

They were better in later years when BGD became E-Frag, but in BGD's prime they were no match.. About that time iNation kicked in and started ruling Balkans cs scene :)

mate entity won kode5 in bgd prime ffs

2014-02-18 10:12

That was good for them, I suppose :D

2014-02-18 21:48

it doesnt seem that results support your claims, as #75 points out :) it doesnt matter now anyway

2014-02-18 22:29

I'm pretty sure there will be one soon :)

2014-02-17 01:57

so i've heard, i hope it'll happen

2014-02-17 02:29

yes 3v3 gg they've try to make 5v5 tournament but they get only 2 teams so :)

2014-02-17 16:32

by contenders i meant players, not teams. there arent even enough euro-level players in slovenia for one team at the moment imo. tho some have potential.

no geko no win

2014-02-16 23:58

geko was in another team that lost miserably

"Even though both teams entered the grand final without dropping a map, GamePub were still condered favorites." considered*

Nice LAN, was interesting to follow this tournament all weekend. :)

2014-02-17 00:16

Vobra ckema.

2014-02-17 01:09

lol 70 k ~ 800 USD lmfao

2014-02-17 01:28

spyleader underperformed in the grand final imo.He can play muuuuch better than this and carry this team,but not today maybe.Anyway gg wp niko was 2stronK~

16 replies

if you need 1 player to carry a team, i have bad news for that team....

2014-02-17 09:11

okok i will say it again.If he performed as usual they had much better chances to win this final.

2014-02-17 12:20

its not dota

2014-02-17 11:53

you dont know much about dota i guess

lol, your point is?

2014-02-17 19:20

10 replies

my point is that dota is team game just like cs and you cant win all games on your own with carry hero...this is my point and if you want to claim that you can win it on your own,dont even reply to me

2014-02-18 09:08

9 replies

my point was that in dota you can carry a little bit more than in cs, ofc its not 1v5, you are right.

2014-02-18 20:22

Theres no way in dota that 1 player can carry To be able to carry your team must give you space to farm and + help u in teamfights

and what did I wrote?

2014-02-19 00:58

Got no fucking idea why i even replied to you , or why im replying to you ...

2014-02-19 12:30

its the same...one player can carry team(neo,forest,gtr,etc did it many times) but that doesnt mean that you can carry your team all the time.dota is the same.sometimes you can carry your team.dendi,xboct,3ice,etc did it many times.but that doesnt mean that you can carry your team every game.i rly dont understand how can you say that in dota you can carry more...

2014-02-19 13:37

i didnt even write word "always"

2014-02-19 22:32

so why did you write "its not dota" in first place when its the same kind of team game...? and man,dota is much harder than cs if we are talking about teamplay/team synergy

2014-02-20 08:40

i dont know, really:D agree, I play both games competetively and dota is harder, in cs, when you are like 1vs4/5 there is some kind of hope to get that round, but in dota its impossible:D

2014-02-20 11:39

ok:)

2014-02-17 02:42

i was surprised when hsbg won e-frag yeah ofc gamepub is 1st on balkan's territory hsbg gj

2014-02-17 03:13

Except for that match, everything else was easily predicted. That's just how it is in these tournaments, I mean you'd at least expect a 2:1 result, but it was all pretty much clean and easy wins.

2014-02-17 09:18

n1 GamePub also big up to Sensei :) bravo momci

2014-02-17 03:30

i was laughting my ass of when i sawone guy on twitch: 746 value on entity (vs gamepub) :D

2014-02-17 09:14

GJ GUYS!

2014-02-17 09:15

NiKo is the monster !

2014-02-17 09:27

Niko&NENO best balkan duo ever.

2014-02-17 10:24

bravo momci

2014-02-17 10:31

Congratz for GP team, its deserved. But some people showed very bad attitude.

2014-02-17 11:26

you mean players or ?

2014-02-17 11:37

GG Geko WP , juriiii

what happened?

2014-02-17 11:55

I dont know anything but i think he means the last 1stood match versus Gamepub when them trolling with shitty weapons, knives and rounds without any buy. This is silly, yeah, you dont like Bulgaria and we dont like Serbia but you can show some respect for people who comes from 400km~ to your event.

2014-02-17 12:34

And u have Serbian name and surname. No one have smth against Bulgarian ppl, u just dream, go sleep.

2014-02-17 13:09

we dont have anything against bulgarian people ... and they were better ofc they will make fun in few rounds and they knifed them no big deal. and yes you have serbian name and 2nd name
