emi to step in for GODSENT in BLAST Showdown, DHM Winter

19-11-2020 18:44

The former c0ntact member has been trying out for the team and will get the chance to prove his worth in two official competitions.

Luka "⁠emi⁠" Vuković will be GODSENT's fifth player in the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown and DreamHack Masters Winter, the Swedish organisation announced on Thursday. The 27-year-old will fill the gap in the squad left by the benching of Kevin "⁠kRYSTAL⁠" Amend.

HLTV.org reported two weeks ago that emi was one of the players on GODSENT's shortlist to replace kRYSTAL and that he had begun playing for the team as soon as it was decided that the German would be replaced. He has been without a team since August, when c0ntact signed Marco "⁠Snappi⁠" Pfeiffer to lead the squad, with his contract being terminated two months later.

emi will play for GODSENT as a stand-in

emi played for Balkan teams like iNation, Binary Dragons and Valiance earlier in his career before taking up coaching in November 2018. He guided CR4ZY during the team's Legend status run at the StarLadder Major, returning to a player role shortly afterward in the wake of the transfers of Nemanja "⁠nexa⁠" Isaković and Nemanja "⁠huNter-⁠" Kovač to G2. In January 2020, the team was sold to c0ntact in a deal worth over $1.5 million, according to a report from 1pv.fr.

GODSENT will face MOUZ on November 25 in the opening round of the BLAST Premier Fall Showdown, in which two spots in the Fall Finals will be on the line. The two teams have also been placed in Group B of the DreamHack Masters Winter event alongside Astralis, Liquid, G2, Sprout, FURIA and North.

The team will play their next two tournaments with the following lineup:

Martin "⁠STYKO⁠" Styk
Pavle "⁠Maden⁠" Bošković
Asger "⁠Farlig⁠" Jensen
Jesse "⁠zehN⁠" Linjala
Luka "⁠emi⁠" Vuković (stand-in)

LUL stupid brit, nothing new

godsent changed igl for an igl, ence changed igl for a firepower

2020-11-19 21:06

8 replies

but the reason for changing IGL for IGL was firepower

2020-11-19 21:08

Firepower and players not being utilized to their fullest extent. I mean most of the players are good individually but you always saw one or two of them play well and others play mediocre or average. Either Farlig and zehN, Farlig and Maden, STYKO and Maden ... but rarely all of them. Changing the IGL might bring them to change some roles which suit them better.

I am doubtfull about that. Krystal is one of the smartest players in whole of CS dude made it into major playoffs multiple times with t2 teams at best. If he had mechanical skills of lets say zehn or styko or even maden (since maden is least consistent on this team) he would be most sought after international IGL. Or he would be IGLing BIG. point is krystal is in the scene for so long because he is willing to have the shitspots and has one of the biggest brains in CS.

2020-11-20 00:34

It's ironic since kRYSTAL was one of germany's up and coming players before. He was an awesome awper and he picked up the IGL role because noone in the team wanted it.

2020-11-20 00:36

2020-11-20 06:06

Well he deffinetly utilizes his players really well.

2020-11-20 17:22

and also cheated in CS:Source. Should be banned for life! #HACKFREE2021

2020-11-20 09:40

He had suspicious clips but was he banned? Its different game anyway but i am curios.

2020-11-19 20:29

Source: trust me bro? Emi had to IGL in c0ntact who are a dying team. He didn't even have a chance to igl in a proper team.

2020-11-19 20:31

I don't know why this is bad, but people on the Krystal thread wanted anyone but him

I think the collective agreement was that while krystal is a bot, he is one of the best igls in the world and that removing him was a bad move.

2020-11-19 19:06

bot

what on earth godsent

the firepower increase is incredible

-bot +bot

2020-11-19 18:52

EMI to step in for GOD

cool

they should have just kept krystal

HE IS JUST A STANDIN PEOPLE. Chill.

kRYSTAL sucked individually but at least he was a decent IGL for all these brain dead players except SKYKO. It’s game over for GODSENT now.

2020-11-19 18:48

Braindead? Who tf do you think you are?

2020-11-19 19:03

Zehn is brain-dead?

2020-11-19 20:38

nah he’s okay strategically, just clearly doesn’t understand how the economy works and does bad moves from time to time

2020-11-19 21:42

First they postet something like "HLTV comments thought this is a good idea, lets do this" and everyone replied that it actually wasn't at all. Then they deleted it and postet that up there without the option to reply. Hype and love indeed…

2020-11-19 19:39

Feels bad man :/

2020-11-19 19:51

sad

Slight upgrade on Krystal but will make no difference to roster...

Huge downgrade in everything.

but it's cuz FPX are gonna sign this roster and FPX have placed some Serbian guy to manage their team ahah so he gets fellow serb as IGL lol

2020-11-19 19:50

that doesnt change the fact its huge downgrade)

well wasn't working out with Krystal. Yes u could say he sacrificed himself for team but still little impact in fragging for the team...

2020-11-19 20:16

BOT IGL bot fragger <<< Great igl bot fragger

2020-11-19 20:18

peca markovic... well, the one who really screwed up wirh FPX is pric3tag who left before signing complete roster of Heroic last year, so this line-up is more of a comfort prize, but I believe that maden, zehn and farlig can pull this off

Worked out great for heroic roster wise luckily. Dunno if they lost out on that chinamoney tho :()

2020-11-20 07:58

Well, tbh it was pric3tag who screw up with transfering to astralis seconds before roster signing, it was a done deal and now they pay second year of participation in flash point w/o team to compete.

2020-11-20 08:13

Sorry, missposted the reply, already said that.

2020-11-20 08:15

disband pls save Styko Zehn and Maden with Farlig or get AZR

+1 true

2020-11-19 18:55

styko zehn zero farlig azr ez top 10. not biased

2020-11-19 19:21

Omg 😄 godsent will fall down

worst move of the year and everyone sees that except godsent lol

only jermans see that

2020-11-19 19:09

Nope literally whole HLTV. It is beside IGL basic math. You kick a bad rating vs a worse rating than the bad one and that rating is vs tier 3 teams. Meanwhile, Krystal rating is vs tier1/2 teams.

2020-11-19 19:16

godsent will improve anyways.

nope cuz Krystal already made the best out of these players.

lmfao you are underrating these players. each player on godsent except krystal is tier 1 level.

you are overrating them a lot. Styko was kicked twice from mouz. Zehn plays for so long as tier 1 player he would have never played for godsent. Farlig just a talent but far away from a Brollan or ropz. Where are these tier 1 players?? Or is average nowadays Tier 1? I see better players in sprout atm.

2020-11-19 19:25

styko got kicked from mouz, but on godsent he plays much better even against better teams. farlig is an upcoming talent. zehn has been playing cs for a long time, but he never made the step into professional cs. maden is a god anyways.

2020-11-19 19:34

STYKO changed positions, he was playing support in mouz but you could see how good his aim was sometimes. Also he played really well in HR, which were a top 15 team before. zehN was always good, dunno why he wasn't picked up by a good team apart from PENTA. Farlig and Maden are gods. Dunno what that guy is talking about.

2020-11-19 23:49

His flag talks.

2020-11-20 02:15

2020-11-20 02:17

In CR4ZY/c0ntact vs SMASH/Godsent duels emi won 4 series more then Krystal

2020-11-19 19:58

this has nothing to do that i'm german. you kick a bad fragger but good igl to get a bad fragger and bad igl. and when i see your other comments you overrate the players of godsent. without a good igl and leader this players would have earned nothing. krystal helps players to unleash their best playstyle in most of his teams and then get kicked because of bad performance from himself. that doesn't make sense. it would only make sense if you get an igl who is top 10 igl but you get emi who is absolutely trash.

2020-11-19 22:41

gl I hope it goes well

ahhaahhaahahahahahahah

2020-11-19 19:00

fer and FalleN joining soon

2020-11-19 19:08

krystal kicked for that?

Kick krystal for worse player

2020-11-19 19:15

i cant see any upgrade???

they blocked replies lmfao

They tweeted something like "HLTV forums thought this was a good idea and so do we" or some shit everyone started saying no one actually thought that so they deleted it lol

2020-11-19 19:54

maikelele was so bad

2020-11-20 14:39

What's the point? kRYSTAL is 10 times better as a leader than emi, and it's not like emi's even that much better individually emi: gyazo.com/33fb455fa36dcd59767bdddcf0be3b.. kRYSTAL: gyazo.com/db23ee1481b66715c27b4fc6a11ca5..

idk what is godsent management thinking

-strats +10% fragging power KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

RIP

2020-11-19 19:49

idiots

2020-11-19 20:10

-big brain bot +low brain bot

He is pretty good, not a bad choice for GODSENT. I don't know if he will fit to a style of IGLing that kRYSTAL had tho, worth a try still.

this is the time for anyone who needs igl to snatch krystal lmao

2020-11-19 20:33

this move stupid as aleksib kick

2020-11-19 20:39

+a2z I guess since Godsent dont wanna win anymore

2020-11-19 21:01

They had many examples of what removing an IGL does but yet proceeded to do so. I have no idea what they are doing. Especially since this "emi" guy isn't better. Why not getting snappi ? And if you're getting bought out by FPX just wait until you joined them and buy FalleN ?

2020-11-19 21:51

Snappi is even worse than those two lol: only good suggestion i see is azr, hes fraggin is insane compared to other igls

nepotism at its finest

2020-11-20 02:47

explain

2020-11-20 03:26

Please get AZR

2020-11-20 02:55

just fucking get AZR or keep kRYSTAL wtf is this bullshit?!?!?!?!!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!

2020-11-20 03:14

emi is better AZR can only play vs avant, order and other shit kRYSTAL is bot

2020-11-20 03:24

Nice bait. Emi is literal dogshit, both at IGLing and fragging. Krystal is at least a good IGL. AZR will be picked up eventually Emi is just a placeholder

2020-11-20 03:48

how krystal can be good leader if team decides to kick him LOL? no one in the team listen to him and his shit calls.

2020-11-20 03:49

hmm, idk maybe because last time they tried to kick him they fell apart within weeks and had to beg him to come back? fucking moronic baiter

2020-11-20 04:01

source: trust me bro

2020-11-20 05:28

how aleksib can be good leader if team decides to kick him LOL? no one in the team listen to him and his shit calls.

2020-11-20 09:41

LOL i love u dRiim

2020-11-20 18:28

In my opinion, emi will do 2 tourneys with this line-up and after FPX buyout, Peca(GM) will transfer him to coaching position. IGL will be bought by that time.
