this is obviously the best comment on hltv that I've ever seen.

2017-09-07 22:26

2017-09-06 19:06

because he's entertaining and knowledgeable and nothing about the hltv circlejerk will change that.

2017-09-06 19:12

2017-09-06 19:33

Big +1. This needs to be pasted on the front page for all the delusional butthurt babies whose nationalities he's hurt (as if another person's accomplishments matters shit regarding you, you dolt).

2017-09-06 19:50

well it seems majority of people dont like the "enterntainment" hes bringing us. his personality is kinda "edgy". and plus its the internet ,every1 can talk shit and they will . especially on hltv forums

2017-09-07 01:07

+1 hes too savage for snowflakes

2017-09-06 23:22

Analysts can't just say positive words, need to be roasted here and there to change it up.

2017-09-07 03:50

2017-09-14 09:36

Because he's good at his job, and no tournament orgs care about your shit opinion

2017-09-06 19:13

Sympathy towards disabled people.

2017-09-06 19:17

every tournament needs a stupid baiter

2017-09-06 19:57

yeeeeey,thorin is back on the desk da_bears as commentator lul

No semmler good event

i really liked moses anders duo last time. pansy is just meh.

2017-09-06 18:26

amazing

he has a speach impediment is that a problem i mean its annoying but its not like listening to blu or dust...

2017-09-06 20:51

NO MACHINE?

When is pansy getting fired? I literally can't watch anything that has her annoying ass voice

2017-09-06 18:27

n0thing whyyy keep playing, ur not that bad

2017-09-06 18:29

The undisputed American Forest casting, the Lord of the Power Rangers.

Where is anders and semmle?? Fucking casters.

n0thing on secondary stream? you must be jokin

2017-09-06 18:31

So they get n0thing as an analyst? Good fucking job! Then they proceed to put him on the B stream?! What the hell is wrong with these people?!

more views for b stream hopefully this isnt a one time thing like friberg only at cologne

2017-09-06 20:52

Well if he's not going to play on a high level anymore, he should definitely go to events as analyst/caster. As seen in the past from events where C9 dropped out early, he's a natural. I'm just annoyed as fuck that they pick some retard like Thoorin over n0thing for the A stream. It doesn't really make sense if it was for viewers.

2017-09-07 07:24

why still invite thorin as an analyst? he is annoying af and has the personality of a 5 yo kid

Thorin based af. Children crying because logic trumps feelings. Was not planning on really watching this, am now.

2017-09-06 18:34

How can do put Jordan and Launders as secondary?

I don´t usually complain about talent for free entertainement that I don´t have to watch. BUT JEEZ!!! Whoever is responsable for signing talent needs to get fired. Nothing on the secondary stream? Really? I am almost sure people would care a lot more for the analysts segment if Nothing and Spunj were the main stream analysts. I personnaly think Thorin isnt as bad as people on HLTV think he is but why should he be placed in front of a guy that actually played pro and is loved by most of the CS scene. Da_bears? Scrawny? OH GOD the B stream is going to be awful to listen to. So many people casting in NA but those 2 still get gigs. Blu is also not great but compared to those two he is the GOAT caster. Launders is also way too monotone for a caster for me, however I think he would be a great analyst since he has a good knowlege of the game.

2017-09-06 18:41

Go to pt stream lol

2017-09-06 20:04

I gave my opinion mr.mrlgnii thats what a forum is for I think. I simply expressed my dislike about the talent pool. Once again I know I shouldnt complain about free entertainement that ESL will provide me and many others and i dont usually do it. "Go to pt stream" Sadly there is only a pt-br stream which I can´t understand most of what the commentators say and "lol" I honestly dont know what made you laugh so much about my comment so I would appreciate it if you told me. Thank you in advance

Secondary stream would blow major ballsacks if N0thing wasn't there... lmfao

get rid off thorin and add n0thing instead ffs

2017-09-06 19:21

why would n0thing be on the secondary stream WTF?

2017-09-06 19:30

Thank god thorin was invited, thought it was going to be another boring event

N0thing is fun but Id be surprised if he took the role seriously and did a better job than thorin say what you will, thorin is very historically knowledgeable at least, and n0thing never seemed very cerebral or able to explain things well also nothing against pansy but her voice makes me want to shoot myself I just dream of seang@res coming back to cast
