blackdog Posted January 28, 2018 Report Posted January 28, 2018 (edited) What a semi-final between SK and Cloud 9! C9 have been very solid from the start, I was really impressed by their earlier matches but didn't think at all they would get to the finals! (Neither the experts. even n0thing was favoring another team in a previous match -- despite that I still put them down as possible winners at the beginning of the tournament, so supporting them tonight, they would give me a nice return on my cheap £2 bet :D). I'm not sure what it is, but seems like despite the talent of n0thing and Shroud, they are much better off now. They seem very confident and assertive, imposing their game instead of reacting. Here are the recorded games ~ Completely unrelated, wanted to ask something to those that know the game well @FMPONE @Vaya @General Vivi...? See the screenshot below -- I was playing the other night and there was a player showing up as "unconnected" and when he was killing someone, it appeared as a suicide (see my highlights). I was wondering if that is some sort of cheat or some actual connection issue... but it looked like there was mad reaction time, I would barely have the time to register the guy was there, and I was instantly dead. Not that he was unkillable though. The other weird thing is that you couldn't report him in any way because you couldn't click his profile, it was greyed out in the leaderboard.

Somehow managed to avoid all spoilers Couldn’t watch live as well :/ and started with the recording this morning (last day off)… unfortunately I got a spoiler on the winners because of thumbnails on YT and Twitter, despite how much you try to scroll past notifications. My biggest surprise is that I was expecting to be a best of 5 game, so was very surprised when map 1 didn’t go as I expected. More fun this way tho! Quote

blackdog Posted February 16, 2018 Report Posted February 16, 2018 (edited) Couple nights after the Scout clutch, I suicided to the losing side and found these kills with the Famas (while listening to a Jordan Peterson interview) Edited February 16, 2018 by blackdog Quote
clankill3r Posted February 24, 2018 Report Posted February 24, 2018 @blackdog On mirage, all you had to do to win the round was stay alive in the end, but you starts searching the last player.It turned out good but it was a bad move. Also a tip, if you have a grenade and you press left mouse and right mouse at the same time you can do a medium throw. This often gives players less time to respond cause it shows up in their view later. You could have used this when you threw it towards CT. For the rest a nice video Quote
