RMR winners and losers discussed on HLTV Confirmed with kyxsan

Tune into the show at 18:00 to hear about the young captain and what went down at the Major qualifier.

Job done in Bucharest, next stop Copenhagen

HLTV Confirmed with Chad "⁠SPUNJ⁠" Burchill, Zvonimir "⁠Professeur⁠" Burazin, and Milan "⁠Striker⁠" Švejda is back on after the culmination of the European qualifiers for the first PGL CS2 Major Copenhagen, with our guest coming from one of the successful teams at the RMR.

lmao i don't think it's bait, xantares is turkish but his grandfather is from here I think. Like 3-4% of the Macedonian population are Turkish people, so it's not that unbeliavable.

Asstralis is the biggest failure of all time, not just this rmr they should terminate their contracts, disband, retire, change name and move to bahamas edit: poll should include a 5th option, Karma would get 100% of the votes

It is fact that Greece has better teams/players than Macedonia in most of the sports ; but its not giving him permission to spreading shit over the site combined with politic where he is underestimating them. And another quote, why you calling them Skopija when their country is called Macedonia ? I guess you are greek to, hiding behind Palestine flag ?

on the first part you are right , no i am not greek neither palestinian i choose this flag just for the innocent civilians from palestine as a support, true now called north macedonia but historical the population there had nothing to do with great alexander and origin of macedonians , but you are right almost everything above :)

I dont have a twitter so ill answer the astralis poll here. Everything. Their loss is not due to 1 factor alone, because plenty of flawed teams still made it through. A team with 4 top 20 players and a superstar awper shouldnt fail to make the major ever. They had too much pressure , thus underperformed, thus pressure got mounted, and underperformed even more. You dint go from nearly winning against spirit to being unable to win against ence and 9pandas with just. A mix of bad performances from everyone, mixed with high emotions, bad calls from the mid round calls, the innability to save and properly buy especially against 9pandas. Or it could be devine intervention. I chose to believe my arguments rather than devine intervention, but hey, could be both.

Asian RMR starting in just a few hours and they can't even bother talking about it as even a minor topic? I get that kyxsan might not have much to say about Asian CS, but it feels weird to not even have any sort of quick preview to predict favorites and stuff.
