OG bench regali, MoDo to stand in

8-4-2024 14:50

MoDo will step in for the team for the duration of Skyesports Masters 2024.

regali moves to the bench after 11 months in OG

Iulian "⁠regali⁠" Harjău has been benched from OG with immediate effect and is now free to explore his options. Benched TSM AWPer Mădălin-Andrei "⁠MoDo⁠" Mirea is set to stand in for the team in their Skyesports Masters campaign.

The news comes amid a rough year for OG. The team failed to progress to the BLAST Spring Final through Spring Groups and Showdown and also missed out on a PGL Major Copenhagen spot after a 1-3 exit at the RMR.

regali proved to be a steady pair of hands in the team and put up one of his best performances at his final tournament, BLAST Premier Spring Showdown 2024, where he averaged a 1.33 rating during a run that contained wins over HEROIC and Complexity but has now been benched after almost a year on the roster.

His replacement, MoDo, spent seven months on the TSM roster but was removed in February after the team failed to make it through the open qualifiers for PGL CS2 Major Copenhagen. He put up a 1.13 rating across his tenure in the organization and was the team's second-highest-rated player.

TSM bench MoDo

OG have been matched up against Aurora in the opening match of the online event, with the Russian combine hitting a hot streak of form since adding Evgeny "⁠r3salt⁠" Frolov.

Nikita "⁠HeavyGod⁠" Martynenko

He is support player. You want him to give 1.10 rating when playing B site Mirage? At least he steps up when we need him to. Can’t say the same for regali.

Literally can't understand. Does the support players even allowed to frag in pro matches? If no, then acceptable, if yes then he can't frag

nice bro, 5 maps totally justify keeping a bot that drags the team down. I'm so tired of the 'but he's a support player' excuse. aleksi plays support + IGL and has better rating all things considered. art plays a disgustingly aggressive entry fragging role but outfrags him still.

2024-04-08 15:44

“Drags the whole team down” u mean sacrifice so much for his teammates even willing to play out of position so his teammates can perform their best. This is what a great teammates does. RMR is the most important tournaments of the year. I showed that F1KU always stepping up when it matters unlike regali with 0.89 impact with AWP. Even last year F1KU was one of our best players in the Paris RMR.

it's funny bcs when aleksi spent 3 months in a team people called him bad and a fraud and cut him after a year but f1ku somehow has been in OG foe almost 2 years

2024-04-09 00:26

Wow

RIP

MoDo XD

i dont understand, regali is a regular joe but does his job 24/7, while MoDo only shines Montag through Donnerstag so he wont be reliable in most events that are Friday or weekend.

2024-04-08 15:18

Thats Funny !

8/8 good one

2024-04-08 17:05

No, you are being wrong. MoDo's bad days where he can't shine is Montag and Dienstag, so he is going to be great replacement. Oh wait I mess this up you are being correct, I'm sorry :D

2024-04-08 19:27

A german with humor. Rare but a great one.

In the only T1 tournament he played his rating was 0.9. If you're against a broken 9ine and a washed eyeballers ofc you can put up a good rating but these guys aren't stellar teams. In one of the tournaments you're using for evidence Big Academy are the highest rated team

13 replies

Aint no way you base it from one map

2024-04-08 15:17

well that's not only fault that TSM didn't play in tier1-2 events is it?, in what events he played he did good, the only event where he was on red was the RMR open qual where they played only 1 map, again, the fact that TSM didn't play in better events is not only his fault but rather the whole team.

2024-04-08 15:19

Not slating the guy for playing low tier events, just saying you can't use stats from those events to say he's a great player in a T1 setting. His average rating on TSM in the list you sent was 1.12 in T3 tournaments. Calling what I was saying 'nonsense' when I'm just saying an average rated tier 3 player going into a tier 1 lan event will struggle is just untrue. I might be pleasantly surprised and see him do well, but I doubt it

2024-04-08 15:32

"In the only T1 tournament he played his rating was 0.9." Lmao was in a qaul and only 1 map

2024-04-08 16:53

Yup and he played badly. The fact that the qualifier that they were immediately eliminated from is the only experience he has playing against a team in the top 50 proves my point that he'll likely not succeed as a stand-in.

Dude meda it was 1map and he was11-12

2024-04-08 17:00

Against Havu though, still not really a good team. Also, 11-12 isn't bad but a 44 adr and being bottom of his teams scoreboard is bad. Genuinely curious though, do you think MoDo, a player who has only ever played against a top 50 team once, will perform well against T1 teams?

IT WAS ONE GAME

2024-04-08 17:34

Don't you think it's a red flag that the highest level he's ever played at was against Havu though? I probably am being a little harsh, but again my only point is that MoDo is such a weird pick for OG. Do you think MoDo will perform well against T1 teams?

2024-04-08 17:46

Too small a data sample to be considered. Broky just got a 0.85 rating today on 2 maps, let alone 1. It wouldn't be fair to judge him either solely on today.

2024-04-09 13:29

But broky has played T1 games before and MoDo hasn't. All im saying is the only thing we have to go off of on how he performs at high level is not exactly inspiring. If i was making the argument that MoDo won't succeed, but the only T1 game he played he put up a 1.6 rating (like Donk did) when I'd be a bit more optimistic. Also, i think the game against Aroura yesterday where he put up a 0.48 rating proves my point

2024-04-09 13:58

if you cant count on his rating on his whole career playing in t3 ( bcs its t3) then you cant count on his rating in t1 either (bcs is 1 fucking map)

2024-04-08 18:56

I'm not judging him on his T1 career, just saying there's nothing really to go off of in terms of high level play and what there is to go off is a very lacklustre performance. I think the game against Aroura where he had a 0.48 rating probably proves my point also. Not blaming MoDo I'm blaming OG management for picking an unexperienced player

2024-04-09 00:27

these are tier 3 stats only. 1 map vs. top 50. 1 map!!!

2024-04-08 15:34

This team looks like a random FPL/FPL-c lobby

-f1ku +loba ez major!

random FPL/FPL-c lobby coming top 27 team in the world.

2024-04-08 17:19

I hope it's because he got an offer from other team and wanted to leave, otherwise very dumb decision from OG. MoDo is good, but regali is better. Also F1KU is still in the team somehow. Btw Heroic here's your new potential AWPer.

12 replies

regali is a tilter, that's probably why he got benched.

2024-04-08 14:53

Says a lot when a tilter at his worst plays better than F1KU at average.

They don’t even play the same roles and F1KU was our best play in the RMR. If u gave F1KU the AWP, he would have played better than regali. regali couldn’t have filled F1KU’s shoes in the support role.

Meds

You really sounds like legenDDDD. Alt? Modes please

2024-04-08 15:57

F1KU unbenchable. must have special contract or something. regali is usually top fragger but only has impact vs. low tiers teams, i think he is quite overrated but not that overrated that you bench him for an ex-TSM player. Must be bought by other org or internal problems like team not liking him.

2024-04-08 15:14

og ceo tied up in his basement

2024-04-08 18:59

regali had the highest rating at Blast ST and still lost ... that why he left now

2024-04-08 15:28

Regali was legit their no.2 , only HeavyGod was better , I dont get it either

2024-04-08 14:55

Team decision apparently.

2024-04-08 16:19

what?? source? If thats true and he isn´t to a new team lmao REGALI been playing amazing this last 4-6 matches lmao, im a hater of him , but this last matches he might have found the sauce again

2024-04-09 03:26

Source jaxi(romanian streamer shout out from IM after winning),some days ago.

2024-04-10 23:37

when's F1KU getting benched ffs

degster should’ve been brought back.

2024-04-08 15:00

degster benched himself 1 ago to get away from this trainwreck. I'm telling u he rather be benched than playing again with OG

2024-04-08 18:57

OG benched degster. He didn’t bench himself.

2024-04-08 19:03

Weird, but okay.

wtf? regali leaving fiku staying how

Regali didnt improve at all at OG , since flamez left OG , they become so mediocre .

OG thought regali would improve the team’s results but he only showed that he dont deserve to be playing at the highest level. Not everyone replace degster 🤷‍♂️

Nah lol . Og isnt shit because regali . He isnt the problem at all . I talk about him gamewise , he regressed at og since kito and fashr came to OG .

2024-04-08 15:01

He had the same roles since he arrived. You don’t watch OG games, if you think k1to and fashr was the reason for poor performances. If we had a capable AWP player, we would have qualified for the major.

2024-04-08 15:07

You prob talk about degster when he didnt hold the defuse on A mirage , cuz 0 teamplay , comms , and he was benched and dint play for how much yet ?

And he would have still outperformed regali in his first event back.

og / highest level pick one

2024-04-08 18:54

Guess he just wanted out, no other reason to bench him

regali is another tilter, that's probably why.

I will be mad too if I have to play with k1to and fiku

2024-04-08 15:56

k1to's not that bad, F1KU on the other hand...

2024-04-08 15:58

I don’t follow 100% OG games, but he is like 3-10 everytime I watch him

2024-04-08 15:59

k1to's been coming clutch lately, F1KU on the other hand continues to be the liability that he is. and OG "coincidentally" started doing better when ruggah left.

2024-04-08 16:00

he got benched by the team, he has no offers right now, it was not his choice

2024-04-09 11:43

how does f1ku hold down his job?

thats 1 million dollar question frfr

2024-04-08 15:05

HeavyGod to leave as well?

nah, he's back to playing for OG.

2024-04-08 15:06

Fuck

2024-04-08 15:09

Nice

2024-04-08 15:04

was literally carrying alongside Hgod and got benched o wow also good move right before even when u had 2-3 month for it

aa he ddint got benched by the team 100% .. he wanted to leave the team ... he carryed hard 2v8 with heavy god and still 0 results ..he had like 1.35 at blast ST and still didnt make it

2024-04-08 15:31

Scraping the barrel

navi +regali

2024-04-08 15:08

og is actually disgusting for doing this to degster. replace him with bunch of not even tier 2 awpers(modo who wasnt even good for t2 scene) while he is benched, and not releasing him? with degster atleast they were still t1. now they are not even t2.

For some reason, when i saw Romaina flag and the word "bench", immediately 'iM' came to my mind .d

hahhaahhahahah u so funny kebap

2024-04-08 17:01

iM's position at Navi was secured after smacking turkish kebaps out of the Major

2024-04-08 17:10

sorry for being rude, but this change is not really a change

Is this even a good move?

2024-04-08 16:56

what about it?

2024-04-08 17:06

That means it doesn't count

you think regali is bot too?

From mediocrity to tier 5

2024-04-08 16:01

Just when you thought it cannot get more mediocre xdd

Probably this is best for regali.

2024-04-08 16:06

Best for both parties

2024-04-08 16:07

nah, OG will remain a T2/3 team. Had high hopes with HeavyGod. but when they make a step forward(last results), they take 2 steps back...

2024-04-08 16:55

I think it’s more about allowing regali to find a transfer to shed off the payroll and not about his skill. It’s a shame though because regali and heavygod actually made them look like they could scratch the surface of a tier 2 team in their last lan. They just need to upgrade f1ku since he looks regressed negatively since cs2. But of olvourse OG go the opposite way

2024-04-08 16:11

he will be on Ninjas this is why

2024-04-08 16:18

OG got a phone call after this match hltv.org/matches/2370904/liquid-vs-heroi..

2024-04-08 16:21

if heroic replace nicodooz with regali then there stupid nicodooz did way better than regali in t2 and hes crap in t1 same will happen with regali.

Why

2024-04-08 16:22

OG and TSM are two peas in a pod

every time i watched Regali he seems to be either carrying or at least going at 1.0 K/D .. i think he's a pretty decent awper. this benching seems to be coming from maybe disagreements in the team?

regali was their best player together with heavybob

Rather benching fiku they benched regali ahah

bench best player lmfaoo

2024-04-08 17:24

that's not HeavyGod

2024-04-08 19:30

Both orgs are clowns anyway

OG keep signing T3 players.

2024-04-08 18:10

OG queued the random decision simulator

2024-04-08 18:14

finally

2024-04-08 18:24

thank fucking god after a year of saying #freeregali after every og match they finally released him

2024-04-08 18:52

2 good awpers on the bench

regali to Heroic nicodooz benched but will be able to play with ex-Preasy

2024-04-08 19:00

i atleast hope he got some big paychecks og brought him in to replace their star awper but exactly after getting him they sold their superstar rifler you cant put a defensive awper in a team with 4 handicaps and expect him to win you tournaments. hopefully heavygod leaves too because he's way too talented for this clownfiesta org.

2024-04-08 19:06

he's going to heroic btw mark my words

2024-04-08 19:09

2024-04-08 21:52

This organization is a joke. Since k1to and FASHR joined the team (they are trash-mediocre) the team is shit. They could have been a strong organization and buy good players instead of signing 2 30 yo bots

2024-04-08 22:32

At least he conquered the heart of ur mom and gifted u to us

2024-04-09 00:31

dude realize this org is done with cs

2024-04-09 02:31

Having watched this garbage team at the RMR, a vital way of utilizing your high impact AWPer is to actually get an AWP in their hands. Hope he goes somewhere that can actually use him properly.

2024-04-09 05:24

yay more hype on that dude named heavygod lol. False god is more like it.

2024-04-09 09:59

2024-04-09 16:24

Ever since they lost Aleksi, this team is a fucking mess Always benched their literal best player. First Mantuu, then Degster, now Regali. Literally a graveyard for great awpers
