What I like about Thorin is that he doesnt care if he is right or wrong, if he wins or loses, he just wants a good show and therefore more views, a true professional
You think so @@danboing3864? I notice that he loves to throw some baiting risky opinion and then listen if people agree or not and he can sometimes agree that he is wrong. It seems to ma that he just wants to have an interesting discussion
Simple is a narrative juggernaut, he is media king. He turns Falcons from a not very intersting team tol an intersting one. So many questions, like Simple vs Zywoo, Simple vs Donk, can simple work outside of navi, can Snappi or zonic handle that toxic personality
I can't believe Astralis, Team Liquid, NIP, fnatic, MIBR, OG, Gamer Legion, Grayhound, Tyloo, all failed to make it to the first CS2 major!!!!!! There are so many underdogs in this competition, I absolutely love it! Thank you VALVE!
Great vid as always, guys, thx. 1 ting concerning S1mpls, u did not mention: S1mple can be very toxic. Maybe many teams will not wellcome him with open arms, even if they could get him... for team sports, a rly toxic teammate can be absolutly devastating.... maybe its not only S1mple that is assessing Falcons, maybe its the other way around too. We as spectators love S1mple, his skills, his personality, great for entertainment - but maybe not great for team play. Personnally, I'm not concerned about his lvl, he is very skilled still, and it will - maybe eventually - show.
Yeah well s1mple was struggling in that match and the community over reacted. The loss wasn’t because he underperformed, he had new positions and team. I just wish that s1mple gets his will and discipline back to grind back to his level.
I agree with Thoorin, Astralis will be fine as they still have a lot of revenue coming in from their endorsement deals. However, for the lower tier teams such as Grayhounds (who disbanded just after failing to make it to the majors) will be hurting and most likely cease operations. They don't have the endorsement streams, and winning in the smaller lan events aren't enough to pay overhead costs.
Do people just forget YEKINDAR fragged out on LIQUID before picking up the IGL role? Obviously nitr0 helped setup YEKINDAR just like jame did. New LIQUID leaves YEKI on an island and its obvious he aint good enough to do well in that situation.
TwistZz is the spectacle of counter-strike, Astralis were going to be the absolute crowd favorites. Man...this major is getting weaker and weaker by the minute, no swedish team, no astralis, no twistZz. i hope ChinaMajor will be much stronger.
this major might make new stars in either players or teams, i think something like this is bound to happen cause a lot our guys from csgo getting older
BlameF was just calling the team to his own kills' advantage. They needed to boot because he was a fundamentally selfish player. -blameF this is a top 4 team.
I hope the liquid players don’t go too hard on themselves since they really got scammed by the Swiss format. Just like g2 dropped out of the major I hope liquid come back stronger and prove that their project can work. They just need to boot camp more in EU as it’s not like they have that many tournaments to play anyways.
its wild to me that youd put a player like device thats struggled with his mental on this insanely stress inducing position and expect his gameplay wont suffer
Thorin's point about IGL's who are awpers still being able to frag is great. Calling for your team while being scoped in on angles and still consistently hitting shots takes a different level of brainpower than an IGL who just uses an AK as his primary weapon
Gla1ve and Elige are the only two from the old Astralis v Liquid rivalry going to the first cs2 major, and they arguably made the riskiest career moves where finances were not a guarantee. Very impressive. Valve should have updated their seeding rankings, but these teams don’t have an excuse, especially liquid.
Loved it ! Never imagined it but I kinda like that the MindBodyEsports guy (Edward) will now need to show his magic and bring up a struggling roster to the top.. Hope the best for TL
it sucks that device's downfall might come as a result of secondary caller syndrome and Astralis definitely not holding him at gunpoint behind the scenes
Liquid in deep trouble? they literally got scammed, lost one best of 1 and a best of 2 vs complexity ? they are no joke and its mr12. Cs is cringe now lowkey either team can win at any point. MR12 killed cs imo
All counter-points eps with Maniac are straight fire !!
Well, I miss old format
It's because Maniac is incredibly well thought out and well spoken when he composes himself. Not many in the scene can do it the same or better.
What I like about Thorin is that he doesnt care if he is right or wrong, if he wins or loses, he just wants a good show and therefore more views, a true professional
I am one of the biggest Thorin fans on the planet but he most definitely cares if he's right about something. He and Rich share that quality.

@@danboing3864sometimes he loves to throw a little bit of dram just to bait more virws
Well you see the joke is

....gets eliminated immediately by tier 2-3 Swedes not even looking close to the best on his team
@@scouthatesrainbows yep looks like in cs2 simple is bot like Yekindar

Do more with Maniac pls
Make this a series with him permanently
Just realized that I watch every episode but aren’t subscribed. Now I fixed that and more fans should sub.

more content for work good looks thorin
JKS to Falcons? XD
I rather watch the goat astralis lineup last dance than the current one
If the team doesn’t turn things around before the break I wouldn’t mind -skullz +reck
i really wanna see m80 stick together, if they get an IGL who’s actually committed to the project unlike mankz they could be solid
@@rocketman983 i somewhat agree with letting M80 breath but Liquid have a quality NA anchor rotting away with a lineup with a coach stand-in.
Falcons and S1mple just now losing to Tier 7 swedes. Lmao
Oh, well, simple never showed up in that metizport game, but thx for the paycheck

Yakinder goes and we bring in one more north American or a Brazilian who doesn't require so many resources? Put naff if star role

The s1mple narrative aged poorly…

May the Stabbi curse haunt them through the rest of their careers. In the name of the chickens, the B rush, and the indestructible fountain. Amen.

Secondary caller syndrome? As in second callers think they can IGL?
Aged like milk on a hot day, regarding s0mple
Epic analysis and predictions from the eSports Historian.
Keep the fire content coming
Stabbi should never win anything

Not MR12. The problem is that we still have Bo1 even in MR12.
love it
