NiP devastates ESC in Thor Open

19-11-2012 19:46

NiP has devastated the Polish ESC Gaming squad with a 16-2 win on de_mirage_csgo in Thor Open #6, showing they are still heaps ahead of CS 1.6's best team in 2011.

ESC won the knife round to start as counter-terrorists, but it was NiP who wound up winning the first rounds as a well executed attack to bombsite A with two after plant kills from Christopher "GeT_RiGhT" Alesund secured them the round.

The two save rounds were uneventful as NiP attacked each bombsite once, without any real casualties or danger of losing the round. Fourth round saw NiP run the 2011 SK's usual A hit with Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg flanking B tunnels and cleaning up the last kills.

At 0-5 ESC Gaming finally won a round thanks to Jarosław "pasha" Jarząbkowski's two AWP kills. The Swedes successfully won the following round though, and on ESC's force buy Richard "Xizt" Landström clutched a one-on-two to further extend their lead.

GeT_RiGhT got the better of Loord & co this time around

NiP switched their attack to bombsite B on the tenth round, as they pushed their terrorist side lead to 9-1. ESC was forced to save yet again, but were then able to take out NiP on round twelve.

Lindberg's two AK47 frags in A on the following round put his team up 11-2, and after a save round by ESC NiP attacked B once more to make it 13-2 with Alesund leading the way with a 20/8 score.

Filip "NEO" Kubski's two entry frags to make it a five-on-three made little difference on the second half's pistol round, as no other Pole managed to score a kill with Adam "friberg" Friberg chiming in with two important kills of his own.

ESC saved to give NiP match point, but even Kubski's entry frag was too little too late, as the Polish side couldn't convert a five-on-four after plant into a win, losing the round and the match 2-16.

NiP will face VeryGames in the grand final of Thor Open Qualifier #6 at a so far undecided time. It is likely the match will be postponed until after DreamHack Winter.

Needs practice, that's all

+1 because valve didnt listen the 1.6 community about fixing shit in GO.

2012-11-20 07:16

+1 because i cant even watch this games highlight videos, this game looks like a bad joke or its meant only for lil kids.. seriously, watching all those highlights from cs:go makes me laugh.. when you see some nice action from 1.6, you can see the "pro" factor in it, but in cs:go everything looks like a shitty or lucky gaming action from some kids @ elementary skool.. its a shame,that this game is replacing 1.6 on every major "pro" event and still looks like crap. just my opinion

2012-11-20 10:07

+1 because +1

2012-11-20 13:26

-1 because +1 see what i did there?

2012-11-20 15:42

+ 10 .. I agree with valve is noob, very soon many of us will quit logging into hltv.org. Bcos i really couldnt see any skill applied in this game. Just pathetic sound, movements, recoil, players skin, all suks

2012-11-20 11:25

This is a whole new diff game..some of the esc guys could not even aim properly and everyone knows they suck online..wait for some LAN matches..

2012-11-19 20:01

why does nobody get your jokes when you actually make some good ones.

This is for Thor Open, not Starseries. Please change title

This was the THOR open qualifier #6 semi final not the SLTV Starseries.. cmon lurppis xD

ESC REALLY needs to step up. 16-0 wasnt random...

R A P E esc can't do any dmg in go imo

2012-11-19 19:51

THOR #6 ... not Starseries

i just saw a txt. file on GTR stream, :oooo

1.6 where are you? cs;go totaly random game, suck

2012-11-19 19:53

What exactly is random about NiP winning over and over and over and over again? Not really perception of the term "random".

2012-11-19 22:34

2012-11-20 06:41

The level on WRTT fanboys are so low. Might think those people are from another planet. Retards!

kids beeing kids :)

2012-11-19 19:54

Expected. Na'vi will fail in CS:GO too, trust me. Their time is over.

I can understand why you might argue that the poles time is over, however Na'Vi is only a 2 year old team, F0rest has been on the top for longer than they have, so has GeT-RighT, so if their time is over then so are those guys'.

2012-11-19 20:00

Actually, by 'their time' I meant Na'Vi. They won't succeed in CS:GO.

How can you at all say anything about that?

2012-11-19 20:11

na`vi has been THE most dedicated team in modern cs history, and they have the most dominant awper in cs's history (who judging by streams is already very good at cs:go). i don't see any reason why they would not succeed, if they can enjoy the game at all.

2012-11-19 20:59

i didn't see other NaVi players but Markeloff was really good i think NaVi will be very strong

2012-11-19 21:26

ESC are strong as well already, judging by how they beat Hawks and matched strides with Copenhagen Wolves. It's just...you know their style. They've always been on and off, especially online. Not to mention I have a theory that for whatever reason comebacks are more possibly in GO than 1.6 so that plays to ESC's weakness of holding big advantages. I expect big things from them at DH, even against NiP.

2012-11-19 22:10

another heavy defeat for ESC :(

2012-11-19 19:55

sltv ? i think that was thor

2012-11-19 19:56

THIS is the revenge for WCG2006@Monza where NiP lost to Pentagram 16-2 LOLGG

2012-11-19 19:59

Do you realize that none of the current NiP players was playing for the team back in 06? I don't quite see the revenge here lol.

but teamname vs team is enough

2006 PGS had Luq, so NIP might have the team name but ESC neither has the team name nor exact amount of players :P

Even electron microscope cannot find a brain cell in your skull.

yeah moron, a random online tournament is now compared to a WCG.

2012-11-19 20:38

kids everywhere

2012-11-19 20:27

fix the event too

Hope Na`Vi and ESC come back to 1.6 .. They can use their organizations to revive the game (??) .. Out of joke: They need practice and more practice, seems NiP is a couple steps forward (Well i guess more than a couple) .. But gl to ESC in future, hope they don't give up and start to do some damage ..

watch out NiP pasha will find u for sure now XD

expected result but morons on this site are so angry "nip win esc noobs" yeah they are noobs atm but wtf did you expect from them? win against top1 atm? users on this site are just fucking annoying, avg of year is below 16 for sure

Age doesnt have anything to do with this, u could be 16 and be the smartest man on earth.

Rimbaud was quite a smart 16 year old

2012-11-19 20:03

but you still think like a kid sometimes, there are alot of kids below 16, mad as hell

omg swedes are so happy now, cause in 1.6 poles was crushing them

aha :D when that exacly happened ? newbies makes me smile :) where were polish fans when neo and company were winning 1 tournament in a year, esc were great 2007 then 2011 nothing more

2012-11-19 20:37

last DH, IEM, WCG, 3x on WCG.

thats what i am saying and u prove me that im not wrong u are a newbie who doesnt even know the history of his favourite team

2012-11-19 20:49

#132

WCG 2006, ESWC 2007, IEM 2007, ESWC 2008, WCG 2009, WCG 2011, IEM 2012 (about major tournaments) these tournaments that had swedes teams

2012-11-19 21:00

polish fans were right here, flamming! why you brining polish fans into his comment? lets bring USA and 1.6 or maybe we shouldnt, not much to talk about.

2012-11-19 22:24

I hope this loss gives them motivation to work harder. Dont lose motivation guys. And stop playing LOL if you want to do something in CS:GO.

Just give them a month and they will be raping Verygames and NiP (with the 2 source noobs) right?

They look really far behind the current top CS:GO teams. Plus all 5 of them are from 1.6 so they have to get used to the source environment all by themselves unlike GTR, f0rest and Xizt who got help from the 2 sourcers. But as they have already defeated a couple good teams in ESWC, lets see what they can do in DH. But looking into the fact that fnatic brought in a Saucer and mouz is also a decent team, i guess its a tough road ahead for ESC in DH too. Hope to see some good action in the upcoming LAN.

2012-11-19 20:12

ESC very bad in CS:GO.

watched like 4 rounds and then closed the stream,stupid game.

seems NiP cheating.,nobody can beat esc :-)

2012-11-19 20:07

now that 16-0 result against wrtt doesnt seem so strange does it

2012-11-19 20:09

So youre comparing NiP to WRTT ? Its like comparing Russia with San Marino.

vg esc 16-2 nip esc 16-2 is it really impossible that wrtt beat esc 16-0 when esc never practiced mill and werent allowed to use molotovs? and a more apt comparison would be birmingham and san marino

2012-11-19 20:55

ESC has been on top for 7 years. And they will still be ;)

what a troll news/topic ))

maybe they need some css players

2012-11-19 20:19

Mabye, or atleast some new blood I think kuben and/or loord are done they should've ended with 1.6.

2012-11-19 20:21

I see great progress on ESC. 2 rounds vs NiP - the way to success.

Unlucky ESC, was kinda hoping more! Don't let your hopes down anyways, soon, just soon you guys will be great again :D

tu gud :D

*GASP* Are you... Are you gais comparing majestic NiP to some cheaters? Have you no shame?! >:[

2012-11-19 20:18

Wonder how long ESC can be on a losing streak and people will still go "give them more time".

maybe they need some css players?

Sad but expected. ;/

Swedish power!

poor esport scene of cs:go - nobody cant defeat nip

2012-11-19 20:33

csgo bad??? omg

2012-11-19 20:35

ESC LAN >> ESC online

Wow, ESC are really that useless? No wonder they complained about WRTT crushing them. Bunch of whiners who expects to get into every big tournament without even installing the game. The tournament organizers around the globe need fucking man up and exclude the Poles from playing in tournaments until they actually accomplish something (online, for example). Getting sick of teams taking things for granted.

2012-11-19 20:41

NiP devastates ESC in Thor Open Event : SLTV Starseries IV? :O

2012-11-19 20:44

cs:go have few mounths, nip players have probably around 700h each, polish guys have something like 200 and now u can say who is the best and whos sucks? u're morons :D but gl in your poor lifes

2012-11-19 20:50

fiflaren onliner... i wish he never did that clutch on the last round on eswc. Many will say they won because of him. Even my grandpa from the grave could have done that!!

2012-11-19 20:56

The hole team won that tournament. Perfect combo in that team. Saying Fifflaren is bad is a shame.

2012-11-19 21:03

yes and no fifflaren is most of the time really weakest player. low frags

2012-11-19 21:05

He also got fewest deaths in every match, So i guess he is playing a more passive role in NiP.

2012-11-19 21:13

For the first, awp isn´t the regular weapon for him. So schooling to a new game, new weapon isn´t easy. 2008 was appointed to the best player at the CGS by the players. Tells more than online skills.

u should have seen him at eswc,he sucked more than tyler durden

2012-11-19 21:12

i love Polish team

2012-11-19 21:04

mirage is nip's best map.

they lose vs WRTT on mirage -.- w chuj the best

2012-11-19 21:11

This is because they had 10 rounds.

2012-11-19 21:29

if you watch his stream hes probably not even top 20 000.

2012-11-19 21:43

It was a joke ;)

2012-11-19 22:01

this is JW ? xD

2012-11-20 12:30

Yes

2012-11-20 12:41

loool xD Thank u :D

2012-11-20 13:18

I know what you think :D

2012-11-20 14:25

like a TROLL XD

2012-11-20 15:59

when will final be played?

2012-11-19 21:42

sad for the poor kurwas

2012-11-19 21:54

i think csgo isnt the right game for ESC

2012-11-19 21:56

nice photo

2012-11-19 22:12

This... breaks my heart.

2012-11-19 22:21

its csgo, not 1.6, relax people, not big deal.

2012-11-19 23:35

Kind of obvious since NiP has been playing CS:GO a lot more then ESC and the fact that ESC has never really performed that well online compared to their strength on LAN. Just give it some time :}

2012-11-20 00:15

pasha is by far the best polish on GO, every time I see a result of ESC, pasha is their top fragger

2012-11-20 00:35

not really, actually taz was their best player on eswc

2012-11-20 07:06

please, I want to see a post of JesperW about this :D

2012-11-20 00:59

will be good year for nip SO MUCH MONEY :D

2012-11-20 02:08

neo 2wronk :D

2012-11-20 06:00

ESC suck balls

2012-11-20 06:44

Fifflaren strong thiz match

2012-11-20 08:15

pasha needs to stop body building and start playing go.

2012-11-20 11:17

ESC totally low :O

Interesting to watch this lineups in 1.6 2-16 I think :D

2012-11-20 15:15

NiP players are just better than ESCs are. So why are you all talking that poles need more time, they will be better, and learn the game but NiP probably can not be defeated by them... And this game you aim more than play with team, as i could see while i was playing. So dont compare Get right, forest and xizt to pasha taz or kuben.. Its obvious NiP players re better
