[VOD] kennyS joins HLTV Confirmed to talk Falcons move and BLAST World Final

Tune in to see Kenny "⁠kennyS⁠" Schrub talk about his time off the server and return to competitive play with Falcons at 20:00 .

HLTV Confirmed returns on Monday at 20:00 with a new episode, featuring a special guest in legendary AWPer kennyS, who recently returned from his long hiatus from competitive play in Falcons.

In this episode, the Frenchman will be on the hot seat talking on the topics of his long stint on G2's bench and his motivation to come back after a year and a half away, returning in an all-French roster featuring his former teammate Nathan "⁠NBK-⁠" Schmitt.

kennyS will make his first-ever appearance on Confirmed

The conversation will also revolve around some of the recent news and reports, such as ESIC's decision to lift Nicolai "⁠HUNDEN⁠" Petersen's ban, Cloud9 exploring options to replace Timofey "⁠interz⁠" Yakushin, and Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz's return to the server earlier this month.

We will close out the show with a talk about the BLAST Premier World Final and the storylines surrounding the culminating event of the year. Some of these include how Kristian "⁠k0nfig⁠" Wienecke stepping in for Martin "⁠stavn⁠" Lund will affect HEROIC's chances to maintain their hold on the No. 1 spot, and Natus Vincere's six-man experiment with Andrii "⁠npl⁠" Kukharskyi.

Why are you so hurted about his comment? Kennys is and will forever be a legend. Said that he is so far away from his peack and has been for so long now. So the question while very rude its justified in my opinion.

Are there areas in or outside the game you (KennyS) have significantly improved in, in comparison to the days where you were the flashiest and most talked about AWPer? As a Belgian that got into CS during Covid, there are no Belgian players to support (aside from Keoz in GL). You played with ex6TenZ who's either seen as a failure at majors or as a great bigbrain IGL. Would he still make a great coach or analyst or has CS changed too much?

Maybe it is because ppl don't have judgment or respect. Even if he is washed, he even admitted it, try to be a warrior in real life and face your mom once a while.
