guys, don't bet on Dignitas on LAN:

7c710f98d3.jpg



that was my biggest bet from the tournament.
I'm going all in on Fnatic now, they HAVE TO win this tournament.


edit: can't believe iBP came all the way up to the finals but Fnatic are hungry, they want this. They don't want to get beaten in the finals by some american team and on the other hand iBP wants to prove that Europe isn't the monopol in this game but I think they already proved that by entering in the finals. My prediction: Fnatic will win 2-1, iBP probably will chose Dust2 (maybe Fnatic bans it, dunno) but if not they might win on Dust2.

I have decided to step away from the skins, and watching these "professional" teams play the game. After what IBP did for their Nuke match, I have no more interest in keeping up to date with the professional matches since I seemed to lost the reason why I continued to play CS. It was not because I wanted to improve, but to have fun. Thus, I am making changes to have more fun with the game instead of being stressed out in searching for the reason why I started doing badly.

Did IBP seem like they threw another match?

Also, what are some of the changes you're making to how you play so it's more focused on fun?

Yeah, they threw their de_nuke match against Dignitas because they only needed to win four rounds. But they had to play through the match because of betting. So, IBP rushed almost every round, and lost the game (I know this because I was watching the live scores on HLTV in which the round would start, and skadoodle would just die very quickly, and he did not go further than 26 frags during the entire time on T side).

I will not care about my ranking as much. I will not go into death match in an attempt to warm up, or do aim training before I begin playing competitive mode. I will not watch these professional matches in order to get new details about certain smokes, boosts, flashes, and grenades. Basically, all of the extra things that I did before, I will not be doing them anymore.

You feel like being worse at the game will make it more fun for you?

Eh, I don't think that I will become worse at the game by not doing the things that I did before. It's just that I won't be using anything new without experiencing it within gameplay. I suppose that I don't care much about winning or losing competitive matches. I will do stuff which I find entertaining :D.

I'd place the blame more FACEit's format than iBP.

I'm up almost $200 past 3 days so I'm gonna take a quick break from betting and enjoy my new knife :p I'm a streaky better that historically goes on big win streaks then big loss streaks. Might as well cut the loss streaks out and start betting again once the randomness of the game wears down. This LAN is very odd to say the least.

A MW Butterfly Slaughter should be just fine 1:1 for a FN M9 Bayo Fade, but you'll have to find a very specific person to make that trade.

I got it, seems like a 90% with very few scratches. I like butterflys as well but I feel since they're from a set case the value will drop no matter what at least a little as people keep unboxing the breakouts.

I'm over karambits though, M9 da best

I think you chose to send gift via email and put yours in. Then you'll get the link there which you can send to modbot. Might be an easier way tho.

Edit: beaten

Thanks dudes!

Random game, but as a huge Twin Peaks fan, I figured I'd share this crazy game with (one of) my fellow CS GAFfers.
