Can FaZe repeat their EPICENTER result in Copenhagen? HLTV Confirmed episode 9 VOD

31-10-2018 19:49

We're ready with more CS:GO discussion and our predictions for this weekend's events, as well as a look at the impact of the latest patch.

The topics for this episode include the recently concluded EPICENTER event and look toward the upcoming cs_summit 3 and BLAST Pro Series Copenhagen tournaments. We'll also be analysing the consequences of Valve's changes to the economy system in CS:GO, where teams now start with a one-round loss bonus, meaning a totally different financial situation for the side who loses the pistol round in each half.

NiKo's 1.48 rating in Moscow will be a focus of the show

This week, the panel consisted of some of the usual suspects, as senior writers Milan "Striker" Švejda and Zvonimir "Professeur" Burazin, Lucas "LucasAM" Miles join host Lars "Yossarian" Esmarch for some Wednesday night CS:GO debate.

2018-10-31 20:55

worst hltv series xDDD talking about nothing

2018-10-31 21:01

No. BLAST has deeper team list. Also, FaZe still has such a lazy attitude which is displayed when they play online CS. They don't even bother to try. Instead of using those online maps as practicing and grinding, they just whine about. Life is hard we get it. They are still luckier than 90% of us. The attitude and laziness put them into this slump in the first place.

wtf does luck have to do with it?

No matter how good of a player you are, there is a good amount of luck required to be recognized. You could be a player with so much potential that can't be recognized just because you didn't have connections to be able to get into a good team.

More than luck you need to be a nice guy, unless your talent is out of this world like s1mples. If you have average pro skills, but are toxic, you can forget about becoming a pro. Being a nice guy is what gives you connections, not luck.

+1 THIS. If you are humble and willing to take criticism from people that most likely have much more experience than you, then if you have the natural talent, skill, gamesense and team play, you can go pro.

2018-11-01 03:09

that's what 3rd party platforms like Faceit and ESEA are partly for. players like ropz didn't have any special connections, just hard work

2018-11-01 13:38

No.

2018-10-31 21:06

doubt it

2018-10-31 21:08

there are literally no chance that Faze will perform the same... Shit team vs Navi in in finals Lmao It will be final Navi vs Astralis as always where NaVi will lose 16-0 almost every map :D

2018-10-31 21:55

No, they can't.

faze vs astralis final

2018-10-31 23:45

sad to see them play online today, but i think NiP payed them off to lose so they are closer to qualify for ESL.

2018-11-01 00:01

No one can beat Astralis on his home soil in front of their fans.

Yup. Would be a nonsense to talk about what happened 3 years ago

2018-11-01 10:32

Sorry but Karrigan overperformed in that tournament and Rain seemed to get out of his slump. They will always make playoffs now but don't expect them to be ranked above Navi or Liquid anytime soon with these current rosters.

2018-11-01 01:53

Czehchia lol? All countries with eng names, but Czechia rofl

2018-11-01 02:16

Yes

2018-11-01 04:14

Guys do not compare the online games with lans. take for example no 1 astralis, which almost was defeated by windingo. At Lan will take max 2 rounds. If they are playing like at Epicenter it s possible to be in top 3.
