Bad News Bears replace crashies with dazzLe

16-4-2020 01:24

After concluding their Flashpoint 1 appearance under the FunPlus Phoenix banner, Bad News Bears have added Will "⁠dazzLe⁠" Loafman to take the place of Austin "⁠crashies⁠" Roberts.

According to Dust2.us, the 22-year-old elected to step down from the roster to instead focus on Riot Games' upcoming tactical shooter VALORANT, leaving Bad News Bears to search for a new player just one week ahead of their ESL One: Road to Rio appearance.

crashies had been a part of the Bad News Bears core since May 2019, helping the roster to make a grand final appearance in ESEA MDL Global Challenge Season 32 under Riot Squad, a first for a North American team. More recently, Peter "⁠ptr⁠" Gurney and company managed a playoff berth in Flashpoint 1 while playing under the FunPlus Phoenix banner, with crashies averaging a 0.90 rating before the team were eliminated in 7-8th place following losses to MAD Lions and Gen.G.

dazzLe has replaced crashies on Bad News Bears

dazzLe, formerly of eUnited, previously played alongside Michael "⁠dapr⁠" Gulino and Jonathan "⁠Jonji⁠" Carey on Singularity and New Identity, respectively.

He has been largely inactive since the North American Singularity roster was released in January following the restructuring of ESL Pro League, making his sole appearance as a part of New Patrol in the Americas Minor closed qualifier, in which he averaged a 0.93 rating.

With the change, Bad News Bears are:

Peter "⁠ptr⁠" Gurney
Mitch "⁠mitch⁠" Semago
Jonathan "⁠Jonji⁠" Carey
Michael "⁠dapr⁠" Gulino
Will "⁠dazzLe⁠" Loafman

2020-04-16 02:18

You do realize that valorant is going to be a bigger competitive platform than cs is right? Riot already has experience beating valve with LoL vs dota2.

2020-04-16 20:19

Ok LoL fanboy

2020-04-16 21:50

From someone who doesnt play either came, LoL looks like a bootleg dota

Imagine focusing on Valorant...

2020-04-16 01:30

Let's face it, he was too bad for a game like CS...

2020-04-16 02:20

He is too bad for Valorant too. He’s just delusional.

No for now. I mean right now CS players feel like Gods in Valorant because it is the most mechanically similar game and also it's easier to shoot and move. It's pathetic how they all use 'Valorant PRO' while the game is in beta...

2020-04-16 09:48

They will face the reality when people learn to use the abilities better. These cs players will suck in valorant in a year

2020-04-17 05:57

Most likely yeah

2020-04-17 09:21

took long enough

2020-04-16 01:31

ahahahah what an idiot

2020-04-16 01:37

I'm glad crashies keeps failing as a player.

2020-04-16 01:38

2020-04-16 01:39

2020-04-16 01:41

2020-04-16 01:45

Because ptr is trash.

2020-04-16 02:14

2020-04-16 08:29

This is good for crashies in the long run but I’m really gonna miss him in cs. Good luck in Valorant

2020-04-16 02:03

What??? I thought crashies was great, why is he leaving CS like this yikes

Not good enough

2020-04-16 02:13

OOF dropping out for VALORANT

2020-04-16 02:08

Crashies going from riot squad to riot games

l0l

poor dapr :(

Dick move then goes to children’s game

i remember 1 year ago when people were saying crashies could be a great talent from NA...

He could. So could oderus. So could TenZ. So could many others. NA talents are their own worst enemy because they are the most vocal against getting a shit fragging IGL that can bring structure that can take them to the next level. And you know what? HLTV agrees with them, but HLTV and the NA talents never piece together why they never make the next level. EU talents forge their own path by making smart decisions. They'll take a shit fragging IGL if it means he will improve their teamwork and co-hesion.

2020-04-16 20:18

AHAHAHHHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA

2020-04-16 02:24

Good luck in valorant crashies

nice daily hltv tier82726362 news gj

Awesome! dazzLe representing Chicago! Hopefully this team can build off their performance at Flashpoint 1

2020-04-16 02:48

what ever

2020-04-16 03:35

who cars HONK HONK

2020-04-16 04:09

gl i guess

2020-04-16 04:17

Valorant seems like a fun game, but "pursuing" a career in valorant is gonna fail for a lot of cs players. If they aren't top tier cs players why they be top tier valorant pros?

2020-04-16 04:39

Pros from any fps gonna join valorant, and it's known that csgo players have the biggest advantage in this game, so i think his chances are quite good

2020-04-16 09:32

Rice Nation pog

2020-04-16 05:16

Makes kinda sense but I doubt he'll achieve anything in Valorant

2020-04-16 06:12

lol this is very optimistic of him.. :D u r literally getting paid to play cs and u leave all behind for a game that no one knows how it will end up.. gl i guess xD Edit: also u r leaving a game that has been "esport" for like 2 decades already, aka u will never worry about the game and its popularity etc. Idk.. very bad choice imo

2020-04-16 06:32

Yeah is ridicilious. Many pro’s that didn’t make it in csgo think they will dominate Valorant lmao.

2020-04-16 07:30

He was clearly not getting paid to play CS.

2020-04-18 20:53

Dayum hype

2020-04-16 07:27

NA please stop recycling the same old players and give new up&coming players a chance??!

2020-04-16 07:29

Best comment I've seen. Why do you think they picked up Dazzle? Because he's good? No. It's because he's played with them before. Friends picking up friends. It's the dumbest freaking thing ever. These pros would rather play with people they know than someone who might actually improve the team. I know Sneaky on Under 21. He is the best IGL in MDL but he may quit CS because he can't get a pro tryout. These teams mostly have 28 year old IGLs. They can't believe that a 20 year old might be better. It's such stupid thinking. That's why they never win.

2020-04-16 15:03

Best IGL in MDL is either FNS if he ends up playing, Shakezullah, or steel. steel would be the defacto best if he didn't cripple his own reputation with the poor performance of this Chaos team. What is good about Sneaky's IGLing? I watched Under 21 demos and they play like the standard NA MDL team except they have exceptional skill

2020-04-16 20:16

What happened to their exceptional skill in Season 32, when they were 6-11 without him. Season 33 they were 16-2 with him. Shakezullah joined Triumph, no improvement. Besides that, Sneaky can actually shoot back. Put FNS or Shakezullah in a match against a pro team, they'll be lucky to get 10 kills. If Steel is so great, why is his team dysfunctional. Do you understand the purpose of an IGL? His job is to set up the best possible scenario to allow his team to get a man advantage.

2020-04-16 20:41

"Shakezullah joined Triumph, no improvement" How are you measuring improvement? Their placing in MDL? Yeah, they didn't improve in that regard, but we have to wait to see the improvement. Imo, whether they improved or not will be determined at Global Challenge LAN when we see them. Going from 6-11 to 16-2 is great, but how consistent is that? I'd rather wait another season since that's all they got going for them. It's not like they're going to Global Challenge LAN, we won't be able to see them play against European team. steel's dysfunctional team would stomp Sneaky's functional team so I'm not sure how this is supposed to be an insult. Surely you don't think Under 21 would do even 1/3 of the shit Orgless, Bad News Bears, and Chaos did at Flashpoint. I sure don't. I have no reason to.

2020-04-16 22:29

You have no clue what you're talking about. U21 beat Chaos 16-11 in season 33, and they also beat them multiple times in scrims. They also beat BNB. You way overrate the talent on those teams. And U21 had its roster in place for a whole three weeks before the start of the season, and Sneaky managed to put an entire structure in place in that short amount of time. He is a 200 IQ player whether you want to believe it or not.

2020-04-16 22:40

nt Sneaky

2020-04-18 20:54

dumbass

Hahaha valorant

2020-04-16 11:45

na noob

2020-04-16 11:46

wtf? I mean crashies was kinda nonamer, but his stats were very good. dazzLe has been playing really bad since eUnited, and still they took him? For me this roster had great potential, but with that change i honestly stop believing that they could go higher than they are now.

2020-04-16 11:54

lmao just washed up / no name NA players flooding to that game expected

2020-04-16 12:29

2020-04-16 12:53

Who cares abouth wahsed up virtus pro from NA

2020-04-16 14:03

Bad News Bears is nothing like Virtus.pro

2020-04-16 20:14

this bots just shuffle the same players all the time LOL

2020-04-16 14:28

Valorant is a reflection of woke culture worrying that video games with terrorists and blood are politcally incorrect. Counter-Strike will always be the better game. Too much fairy shit going on in that game.

2020-04-16 15:55

VALORANT has nothing to do with SJWs and terrorists and everything to do with people having ADHD when it comes to their respective profession and feeling the need to jump ship at every "CS killer." They will be back. Most of them. crashies certainly will. I'm willing to bet money VALORANT is only going to go downhill from here.
