he was probably talking about teams

2016-09-12 17:41

I would have liked to see at least NiP here since they won Starseries. I don't know when Pyth comes back and I want to see if they can win another tourney with Maikelele.

2016-09-12 17:59

It would be too easy for them

2016-09-12 18:06

Moddii is from Sweden. +All the swedes are tear one except Fnc and Epsilon and Fnc just need pracc to get better with the new team. And Epsilon didnt qualify.

2016-09-12 18:37

4 replies

wasnt there invites? Epsilon has wrecked 3 of those euro teams...

2016-09-12 20:25

There was a qualifier for 2 of the spots. Epsilon got beat by Hellraisers in the semi-finals of their side.

2016-09-12 20:31

Fnatic is tier 1 right now, Godsent isn't though.

Arguably top tear. They have not played on LAN. So we will wait and see. And after ESL One NY we will know. Yeah im with you. Godsent need practice aswell. But they have 4/5 members of the Pronax era. So they just need a little time to sync. But Fnc has a younger lineup wich needs pracc to increase their skill level.

2016-09-12 20:15

Yeah, I like Heroic's chances in this one. Ex-SK is a really good team now that they won Power-LAN and did well in SL, beating Astralis again making them 5-0 overall 3-0 on LAN in the past month or so and nearly beat dignitas again. Wait you aren't talking about them? Oh...

FaZe We are not talking about G2/TK

It was still the same members that made 3rd there. Admittedly Jkaem and Rain are the only two still around, but it wasn't like Dennis, Maikelele, and Fox all left at once. Also who is TK?

2016-09-12 17:19

Team Kinguin

Why not just call them Kinguin then?

They are separated from C9 this time though.

2016-09-12 17:32

okey

why does shitside get an invite?

group a so stacked lol

2016-09-12 16:56

How lol

2016-09-12 17:55

Ez for heroic, virtus throw, f4ze and dignitas

FaZe pls don't choke again. IT IS YOUR CHANCE TO WIN FINALLY

Why did they invite dignitas SpaceSoldiers beat them 2time

2016-09-12 16:57

don't cry in my kebab plz

hltv.org/match/2304107-space-soldiers-di..

2016-09-12 17:13

And they explained why reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/4z.. TL:DR Dignitas gets invited because they are atleast ranked in the HLTV top20 because thats the most non-biased way to invite teams, doesnt matter if SpaceSoldiers won over them.

yea the only chance is direct invites for space soldiers to attend lan tournaments lolz they cant even beat t18 teams on qualifiers

Yeah, if SpaceSoldiers deserved to attend, they wouldve won the qualifer.

2016-09-12 18:00

same logic can be applied to dignitas. they lost 2-0 in the qualifier vs ss

2016-09-13 22:04

The difference is that a team backed out, so they took some1 that was already at the top 20 rankins on HLTV. The qualifier results are irrelevant.

2016-09-13 23:06

virtus.Pro take it easy :p

2016-09-12 16:58

fast 2:0

2016-09-12 17:40

Faze pls no choke

was expecting vp envy and c9 as always

LOL both are basically the same from MLG/Cologne

2016-09-12 17:00

Yey

2016-09-12 17:01

Let's go c9

Ez for fgb

Only shit teams attending. A great chance for VP or C9 if they don't fuck it up like usual.

Dignitas will make a surprise. Good luck.

Ez 4 C9 lel

2016-09-12 17:05

VP vs C9 Final? I are think that.

Trash Gambit and F3

2016-09-12 17:07

tier2 tournament, lets goooooooo

VP again? Throw incoming

12 replies

Why would they throw offline games?

2016-09-12 17:15

Suddenly they have thrown Starladder...

2016-09-12 17:46

like they did in eleague right?

2016-09-12 17:17

That is what they've done in Kiev...

2016-09-12 17:47

They literally came to city like hours before first game which didn't go well and they had another bo1 like half hour later.

2016-09-12 17:51

Oh that happend really? I thought I heard something like but I wasn't aware to 100% OK that actually explains a bit and Kuben's miss probably have weaken them a little bit more ^.^

2016-09-12 17:56

Yea. I bet they were hella unprepared. :/

Yeah they did really look unprepared on their top 2 Maps. And aimwise they really looked like some beginners for the most of the time. Their postplants were awful, that actually has less to do with being prepared?!

Jet lagged? Thats some north american shit. You can't steal our excuses.. .

2016-09-12 22:04

I'm not saying it was yet lag. Just lack of preparation and focus and no coach

2016-09-12 22:09

But you blame the late flight...VP have never been consistent, id say it was just one of their off tournaments. The late flight sucks, but i dont think thats the reason behind them playing poorly. Preparation cant be blamed on the flight at all, thats stuff that shouldve been done weeks in advance.

2016-09-12 22:12

Normally they are always good on lan.

2016-09-13 16:26

Will these teams ever get a break lol

There was a two week break for all pros before EPL started about a month ago m8

GOGOVP

2016-09-12 17:16

2016-09-12 17:20

2016-09-13 00:16

Pretty sick actually, a lot of teams can win this

SHIt tournament shit teams

Don't forget about demo

2016-09-12 17:21

dig faze or vp gonna win this (hope its dig)

Me too ! I root for Gambit to do something spectacular but they dont have any chance at all ! Still cheering for both teams

2016-09-12 17:28

ez for cloud9

2016-09-12 17:23

OVERSATURATION!

EZ for Team EnVyUs

Please virtus just please win something :/

2016-09-12 17:34

vp will fall in groups

2016-09-12 17:35

Where is this being played? Edit: Nevermind, found out myself. Will they be selling tickets at the door?

2016-09-12 17:43

do think that someone on hltv knows this?

2016-09-12 18:33

Buy them on their site but I dont think that there are much tickets left so be quick

2016-09-12 19:35

Well I don't have plans for next weekend and I'm not working, but I won't go through the trouble of ordering them online as my bank is shit for online purchases.

2016-09-12 20:17

With those teams this is pretty much the hardest CGSO Lan ever to predict. All the "top" teams there are capable of massively underperforming (envy/c9/VP) and all random lower teams have great upset potential (heroic/gambit/flipsid3). Pretty much anyone's Lan to win if they play well.

2016-09-12 17:42

only top team here is VP.

You mean the guys who just dropped out in last place of their last Lan? Yeah you're right, clearly far better than the others I mentioned...

2016-09-12 18:55

Envy's shit for almost a year now, you can only call it a 'slump' for so long... not to mention c9 lmfao

2016-09-12 19:08

only team here considered to be a top team is VP. I think c9 or heroic will win though.

2016-09-12 21:13

gl faze

teams are pretty similar to starseries

2016-09-12 17:48

Time to shine FaZe, come on !!

WTF is this tournament ?! Looks like joke with this teams.

2016-09-12 17:57

tier2 tournament.

2016-09-13 00:14

B O R I N G

2016-09-12 18:04

Hmmm, I guess I'll have to root for FaZe.

2016-09-12 18:15

i think faze can win dis

2016-09-12 18:24

Bye bye vp again

2016-09-12 18:25

Dicks out for FaZe _)_)===D

2016-09-12 18:27

2016-09-12 18:32

Blad3 and F3 go go go!

2016-09-12 18:34

GoGoEnvyUS

2016-09-12 18:38

VP wins it. Just to troll everyone :D

2016-09-12 18:39

Heroic instead of HR, so boring.

2016-09-12 18:49

13 replies

Why would anyone invite HR? They cant qualify either. Heroic is way better

2016-09-12 20:26

way better x'''''''''''''''''D

2016-09-12 21:16

HR has literally done nothing in the past 2 years I was mistaken. Heroic is not way better better. Heroic is like way way way better than HR.

2016-09-12 22:14

why cant i remember the last time "Heroic" (pretty childish name btw) did something major the last few years. They are a mix, that can upset on a map. Nothing more. HR is an inconsistent pro team that is known by fans of e-sport. Even if the majority of them are hating them for no reason. so, i guess F you is the last thing to say here.

2016-09-12 22:15

Are you dumb? have been away from the cs scene for the past 2 months? You are asking what has heroic done ? roflmao.

2016-09-12 22:20

2 MONTHS? If u stack up Heroic's "merits" wich is none. and compare them to HellRaisers, its a done deal already. Ur being stupid. You are just a hater. Im not even hating on Heroic overall i just think its boring to have a mix team of nonamers instead of a well known team.

There is a reason why Heroic is ranked #10 and HR isnt there in the top 20 But then i jsut see that you are a blind HR fanboi and im not even a fan of Heroic.Im just stating plain FACTS. Considering the no namer players on HR,its ironic you call heroic nonamers lol.

2016-09-12 23:09

6 replies

HR at their prime has/will always be better than some danish mix called Heroic. Sry son.

2016-09-13 11:41

HR top top team hltv.org/match/2304736-tengri-hellraiser..

2016-09-13 21:06

Heroic-Dignitas 0-2

2016-09-13 21:39

Rofl you are comparing shit team like tengri to dignitas. I dont even know why im replying anymore.

2016-09-14 14:18

u seem very biased towards danish teams. fakeflagging piece of shit xD really.

2016-09-14 14:25

Why should i fake flag? Lol You are just being biased lol. No one in their right mind would ever defend HR or flipside. Not even half the cis people here defend them. And then you call me biased. I hate most danish teams,i only like heroic.

2016-09-16 17:41
