Kinguin qualify for ESL One Cologne

25-7-2015 20:24

Team Kinguin have secured a spot at ESL One Cologne after seeing off dignitas 16-8 on de_dust2.

The first spot at the upcoming Cologne major was contested by dignitas and Team Kinguin, two teams who had faced each other a couple of weeks ago, at DreamHack Open Summer, with Mathias "⁠MSL⁠" Lauridsen's side running out 16-14 victors at the time.

Today's match was the polar opposite: Kinguin came out with guns blazing and strolled to a 7-0 lead as dignitas looked completely helpless. The Danes then finally put a stop to Kinguin's winning streak, but Mikail "⁠Maikelele⁠" Bill's men continued to control proceedings and brought the scoreline to 13-2 at half time.

Kinguin are through to the major even without a coach

dignitas then executed a flawless pistol round on the Terrorist side, which allowed them to cut the deficit to 5-13, but then a series of rounds were exchanged in gun play before Kinguin eventually sealed a 16-8 success that puts them through to the major.

2015-07-25 20:41

Fuck u hater easy qual

I have a feeling that Kinguin stickers will generate more revenue than any team ever because of the insane amounts of Kinguin fanboys.

2015-07-25 20:43

Kinguin? What we talking about

16-0..remember now?

2015-07-25 20:51

Kinguin stickers FOR LIFE.

wow great job fellas, definitely deserved. can't wait to see this team in the groups, gonna be a dope tournament.

2015-07-25 20:45

it's a joke that you only need a few bo1s to qualify for the biggest csgo tournament...

they're offline qualifiers now, it used to be online bo1s :) whatever though, not like they can make every whiner/gambling addict/retard (choose one to describe yourself) happy.

yes it sux but there is a looser bracket ..coulb be worst

2015-07-25 22:21

deserved

Ohh nice

check stats

2015-07-25 21:03

2015-07-25 21:06

omg rain -3 in a 16-8 omg kick him, he's no worth 40k pls he's pulling the team down!!! kappachino

2015-07-25 21:09

40k is just a rumor stop believing even LGB manager said was false

2015-07-25 21:11

yet he made actual big frags and clutches, unlike fox who just stays back like a coward and finishes off wounded enemies. that's the difference. one actually has a high skill ceiling and is a good player regardless of stats in an individual game, while the other (fox) just doesn't have the skillset to ever play in a team like this - regardless of stats.

hater much??

2015-07-25 22:13

lol seems like fox fucked your entire family with a bit dildo. Don't hate so much kido big*

2015-07-25 23:19

You really dont understand what cs go is... more complicated than you think... keep going mm loooool

2015-07-26 03:07

stats doesn't mean shit But yeah he actually played good imo

2015-07-25 21:32

He did okay. maikalele was the primary AWPer and played amazing against dignitas.

denkaaaaaaaaa <3

bo 1 ? sooo badddddd

2015-07-25 22:19

16-0

1. Poland- Germany 2-0 ( Arek Milik and Sebek Mila) 2. German teams never won any tournament in Counter Strike CS: GO and you write me 16-0? heheszky

2015-07-25 22:26

same team like dennis had in 2014katowice. :) expect a lot from them.

2015-07-25 22:22

So I'm the only one who doesn't see the stickers looking any good at all? We know for sure they won't be clean like Katowice 2014, and a penguin with some shit behind or around it just doesn't fit in with almost any guns and will look very out of place for the most part. Still, I like the team. But how are you hyped for the stickers.
