Nah man they're playing like scrubs. I'm not seeing anything from LDLC that looks incredible, they're just much better than NaVi. I'm pretty sure I would have done better than seized against LDLC. "Pro" players haha.
e: He had 16 kills in 47 rounds. He's not worth the time it takes to do the math.

its like .3 kills per round
lmao I already know what you said and I didn't even see it
btw this was Titan's map pick. I think it's safe to say that while LDLC are playing very good today, these other teams just aren't even doing anything. Titan aren't even running strats.
Titan seems to only revolve around Kenny getting a pick and going from there. Which is strnage since I always thought Existenz was all about these great tactics. Maybe they are saving stuff for DH Winter??
Wow @ KQLY and kennyS messing up in that last round. Embarassing.

fxy0 coming back for DH Winter so Epsilon can keep their invite and drop out in the Group stages. Fun stuff.

I'm surprised you are not on a pro team.
the greatest team ever conceived
It's funny how much external set-up can factor into a game like CS as opposed to other competitive games. Sure you have keyboards and mice and stuff with games like Starcraft and DOTA, but rarely will you see people caring about configs, size of mousepad, mouse accel fixes, etc as much as CS players do. It's pretty cool albeit a weird thing. I also need a new chair
Not enough connections or time. I had a good 1.6 run when I could just go to school and then game all day.
Even though I know your comment was snark, people say the same things when watching sports. Everyone and their mother calls Geno Smith (Jets QB) trash even though he's clearly a better athlete than any of us will be. They're getting paid to play, they deserve all the criticism they get. If I was getting paid to play CS:GO you can bet your ass I wouldn't be as bad as ex6tenz. Yea he's an IGL but his strats are awful so what is he bringing to this team?

I need to learn to calm the hell down when I play CS, I panic spray way too much.
Oh of course they deserve criticism for stupid plays. The problem is you can't possibly now what the player is thinking at that moment. Maybe a call was made that two players are on A and he just wanted to save a second in getting the bomb down. And we don't even know if and how much the different organizations pay their teams.
ANd while Ex6tenz is looking bad right now, he did lead Titan to victory in Stockholm. It just seems like Titan is incredibly inconsistent right now. If I remember correctly Existenz played really great in Stockholm.

That BOT Cecil draft was a huge get
Personally I don't think he should be LMS every round like he is, leave that to apex or kenny because they can actually frag and clutch. You're right we don't know what was going on with calls that were made, but from a spectators perspective it really just looked like a tier 1 team vs a tier 2/3 team.
But maybe they're saving their strats.
he turns into a Paladin after eco rounds

Or maybe they just had a fluke win at DH.

I'd say keep a skin if you really like it. That way you at least slowly gain something while betting. You are likely too loose a lot sometime.
Yeah I was gonna do the skin swapping thing to see if I could get a good looking one and the first one was pretty solid so I just took it out. It's Field-tested but the actual art at the top is unmarked so I'm happy with that. It frees up my FN Ocean Foam too, which is worth $9 so more value for me I guess.
you laugh but imo it's a really important aspect. if you're not comfortable how can you play well, or at least as well as you're accustomed to?
and with what Wunder said, I was one of those people that would say "lol who needs a QcK+, that shit is way too big" so I got a QcK..and it feels way too small.
Stuff like this has a huge impact at least with me. I can't play fighting games unless I have my arcade stick on my desk. I can't have it on my lap and I can't sit on a floor cross legged like some top players do.
obviously I'm not going to be s1mple or Daigo just because I'm playing on a QcK+ or have my stick on a desk, but i'll be a lot better than I would be with any other setup

holy shit are you me
I got a QcK before getting back into CS and like a couple weeks later I got back into CS and have been wanting a new mousepad ever since. I can't FUCKING entry sometimes because my wrist is like sideways
Thanks for doing a giveaway!

I've been feeling like my mouse movement and target tracking has been sluggish lately so I bumped up my mouse sensitivity. Probably a little early to say right now, but I'm feeling pretty good about the change.
I will always call it the "ump"
congrats on the rankup
shit like that is sad. CS is the main reason I talk so much shit about Valve. Doesn't really seem like they try hard enough to deliver the best possible experience. They know they don't really have to, because what other alternative is there? Every other multiplayer shooter is garbage
I love the game but I feel like it's handled so poorly. I'm kind of happy I deranked to AK because DMG wasn't fun. I watch enough streams to see that literally almost every game has at least a hacker.

Just played with literally the most obvious hacker, he gets kicked at 13-2, we come back and tie it. LOL (Replay incoming)
Better to get Q'd against them, free win

I doubt there's a more obvious hacker than the gameplay impact posted in the 15 years later thread.

theres like 8 people working on cs go or something
its not like a cod or a halo where you have an entire studio just sitting there either working on the next game or fixing the old one
plus its not like finding and shutting down hacking is easy
if it was it wouldnt exist period
i dont wanna get all kneejerk defensive about it but theres only so much to be done and acting like valve doesnt care, when they clearly do, is kind of crazy to me. you undervalue how much work is actually done by some of these people
