Im happy fot this cool line up. Also want to say that my YT Music year recap said Feed the Trolls is my third most listened to podcast so big thanks! And hope to get another year of cool pods
Thorin hates women so much, he pushed Sam to create this show and made great content with her all to catapult her career into an early grave by *checks notes* getting Sam to host majors And has now ruined Freya’s career by agreeing with her points therefor she’s now agreeing with everything Thorin has said historically and in the future and she’s been cancelled Can’t believe Thorin pushed to setup this show all to just ruin the careers of women, that’s a level of hating Launders racism could get behind
@@TechGirlZA question , this prob will NEVER happen and I'm NOT a fan at all of Val but.. I would LOVE to see Pansy on the show one day. I for one miss her casting just saying .
Thank you Sam! Another banger piece. And may I add that I am thoroughly enjoying your desk segments as well! You are filling in the RL and Duncan shaped hole the desk has had for a long time. Keep it up!
I usually don't get to watch the major live due to work but this major I have been watching everything since it goes from 10pm to 5am. I have really been enjoying the talent now that I get to watch live. Hope all is well in Beijing.
Donk is pretty much putting up top tier numbers doing it solo as a rifle opener. He does things that nobody else can do if he had a good support he would eclipse Monsey and zywoo by miles.
@@samuelbartram9611 sorry I didn't explain what I meant by support. What I meant is he is usually solo throwing his utility for himself. He doesn't have a teammate to set him up by pop flashing him into angles. If he had a utility guy behind him I think his stats would be god tier. He usually has shiro there to back him for trades and that's about it.
@@coltonchapin280 donk doesn't play by himself nearly as often as you're saying. He's almost always at the front of an entry pack. The question is that would he actually have as much space in other teams as he does in spirit, similarly to Zywoo's first two years in CS Vs now with spinx ect.
Another techgirlza video, another ChatGPT comment Freya Spiers is such an incredible talent in the esports scene! Her deep knowledge of CS:GO and now CS2, combined with her charismatic hosting, makes every event she’s part of a joy to watch. Love how she advocates for inclusivity and diversity while setting a high standard for analysis and presentation. She’s a true inspiration for aspiring casters and fans alike! Keep shining, Freya!
I want s1mple cloned and on EVERY-team just for comedic purposes of him interacting with others. All he is good for at this point TBH xD And ZywOo plz never change, just evolve.
With Snappi being benched, magisk might take IGL role. With zonic as a coach they might give it a shot and get 4 firepower fraggers. If G2 did it with Snax falcons might be able to flex on them
I'm just convinced international teams can't have an era. I think for a team to click this perfectly it has to be national and I much prefer that anyway. I don't like international teams because there's something missing. History also agrees with me. All the eras have been held by national teams exclusively unless you wanna count FaZe in 2022 which is the closet thing to an international era. Even Heroic with cadiaN could've had an era imo if the team didn't break up so soon. The way national teams play off of each other has never been replicated by any international lineup. What made Astralis so much more special was that they had an era after everyone already thought eras were completely impossible anymore and not only that, they had the best era of all time. Long story short, bring the national team meta back. It also means you don't need a star in every position either, it's a team game, if people click really well together they don't have to be a top 10 player individually to win events. Top 1 is donk because he's cooking them with a rifle, top 2 Zywoo because he's a hybrid and 3 monesy just because AWPers are more boring to me.
Don't you guys think Thorin says "the joke is" too much? Watching his content for years i feel like he had better vocabulary in the past. Freya is goated, hope to see you in the same spot she is one day TechGirl
the joke is he has been saying that for years. it used to be a joke on By the Numbers to give Richard "Undertaker" Lewis" and Duncan "The Joke is" Shields these sorts of nicknames in the comments, so him saying that a lot isn't anything new.
For me m0nesy has too many games where if he didnt get dragged across the finish line by his team they would be knocked out. Though he does have more clutch finishes to tournaments so its hard to say, but zywoo definitively have more output overall
1:05:55 They just say the quiet part out loud xd Donk broke like 5 records in his rookie year. Sorry but for anyone with a brain this race shouldn't be even close, but i guess it has to be for entertainment. Donk could have a rating of 1.2 and monesy and zywoo 1.3 at the end of the year. it still would not be close. But i guess "WOW THE SICK FLICK DUDE" once in 2 lans is enough to wipe donks kpr records, adr records and rating record in his first year as an entry, rifler rookie xd
Yeah but the problem with Donk is that his team hasn't really won anything besides Kato and the London blast event. He has gone quiet in a lot of the big games too. Breaking records isn't anything too exciting if the keeps getting more fraudulent. Spirit nearly missed out on the major too
If he had a rating of 1.2 it would kind of invalidate your later argument about how impressive his stats are, I think he's great but it's definitely close
@@Tobygas Lets recap. Donk Won Kato, S tier lan and Major EVP. Most impressive win ever, from a rookie solo carry. Zywoo won cologne no EVP major, infact, he was fraudulent at kato and the major. Monesy no s tier lan. huh weird. major evp. Donk has in S tier lan rating MONUMENTALLY more achieved than zywo and monesy, so why you bring that up just shows your lack of knowledge about the scene. Neither monesy or zywoo broke records. Despite being the "goat contenders" Donk broke many records. Zywoo was quiet in the first 3 months of the year. Donk despite bombing out of cologne has a higher s tier rating than zywo. Monesy isnt even close to donk and zywo in s tier rating, so why so called analysts of cs keep bringing him up is beyond me.
I know this is off topic, but my Falcons post didn’t age really well… haha! Although other than that, Im happy for the RMR A team. Sometimes you gotta take the L.
Great show...would've liked to get more from Freya...Thorin dominated the whole show? Otherwise really good... Leave Vitality as is...why change? Look at Navi... Shocker...Astralis out of the Shanghai? I think there is friction...and we do not see it... Falcon's...to many big ego's very good players...but yeah...ego's!
I hope monesy doesnt go device route where his gf cheated on him and hes just broken now. I almost wanted to cry looking at monesy really poor performance at the rmr... Bruh please please please monesy wake up and be the champ
I’m pretty sure Vitality are still sharing hotel rooms except ZyWoO gets his own. Maybe, as petty as it sounds, SpinX wants to go somewhere where he’s the best player on the team and treated like it.
Freya is amazing, I'm glad you got her as a guest.
She has big D energy
10/10 can confirm and agree!
Thorin hates women so much!
Evident in this video
Sadly his heart is three sizes too small.
Thorin and TechGirl are my favorite women
(dont tell my gf)
@@jjdn43😂😂😂
Tageule
Feed The Trolls might legit be my favorite talkshow of the year, just a chill environment and spicy conversations, what's not to love
Banger guests too. People that you don't hear from on other CS podcasts. Like, Freya? Yes thanks you, and please come back! 😁
Aah rad I love that
Freya it was such a pleasure to hear you talk, you should absolutely partake in more of this content
Seconded!
Im happy fot this cool line up. Also want to say that my YT Music year recap said Feed the Trolls is my third most listened to podcast so big thanks! And hope to get another year of cool pods
Aaah that’s awesome!!
Thorin hates women so much, he pushed Sam to create this show and made great content with her all to catapult her career into an early grave by *checks notes* getting Sam to host majors
And has now ruined Freya’s career by agreeing with her points therefor she’s now agreeing with everything Thorin has said historically and in the future and she’s been cancelled
Can’t believe Thorin pushed to setup this show all to just ruin the careers of women, that’s a level of hating Launders racism could get behind
😂😂😂
This comment is cooking
The bangers just keep on coming
Freya !!!!!! LETS GOOOOO ... Thorin just breaking the internet hahaha ... LOVE this, thanks for the content
are 10y old or braindead ?
Hope you enjoy the episode!

@@garyhandt3858 ahhhh Paaaansyyyy, brings back so many memories 😊
5:35 I've watched the vitality vlog with Jackz, you can see the vibe was sooo good and that Apex and Jackz are real bros
Was a fun one
Thank you Sam! Another banger piece. And may I add that I am thoroughly enjoying your desk segments as well! You are filling in the RL and Duncan shaped hole the desk has had for a long time. Keep it up!

Glad you're enjoying the live coverage! We’re remote from Romania so usual day starts at 4am 😂
I didn't realize that. Good luck with that.
The fact that thorin found an equally out of pocket co host, and its techgirl... Money
😊😊😊
You're doing such a good job with the content Sam ! Keep up 🥳
Thank you!
Wow
What a fire line up this video has
Holy
It is legendary!
❤
Great video
Hope you enjoy the episode
@TechGirlZA of course
I always enjoy feed the trolls
I love feeding the trolls, the video and literally
Haha
❤️
Great vid, thx. Fantastic guests, love both of them.
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you techgirl my god you and thorin are runnnnning cs content
Hope you’re enjoying the episodes
@ so much. Thank you
I absolutely live for that shit-eating grin of thorin at 10:36 XD

Good job, as always!
Appreciate it! Hope you enjoyed the episode
Missed you on the desks at the RMRs, hope youre back for the Major in a week!
I am!
glad to get Freya content since she's not at the major

And ZywOo plz never change, just evolve.
pretty fun episodes as always and Freya surprisingly good I thought she's gonna have a mild and boring takes but she's very good with some spicy takes
Freya is the best

@@nonAehT yes but last year or so he use that a lot more, too much even, his sentences suffer because of that
Almost everyone has phrases they use too much. Most people don't have thousands of hours of them talking on video for people to notice
another banger episode
Very cool, thank you
Glad you liked it!
For me m0nesy has too many games where if he didnt get dragged across the finish line by his team they would be knocked out. Though he does have more clutch finishes to tournaments so its hard to say, but zywoo definitively have more output overall
Interesting take
3 GOATS !
Jame and Yekindar was the best matchup of Fast/Slow style IMO
Its Freya! My wife!
It is probably just me, but
Is this episode just a therapy session for Freya and her love of Vitality?
Haha
❤
i think she just likes zywoo alot haha
Freya's so easy on the eyes & ears.
Jackz is almost too happy......... I think he has severe depression 😢😢😢😢😢
Jimpphat to Vitality and Spinx to G2 would be sick.
FREY YEAAAAAAAAHHH
Spinx is also (somewhat) of a valid replacement to Niko. What if G2 2025 looks like this: Snappi, Spinx, Monesy, Hunter, Malbs?
-snappi. he needs to retire from Tier 1/2

Thorin predicted falcons for top 8 of this major, so you're in good company
Great episode
goated trio
2 girls, 1 ginge, Great podcast 😊
Freya have my children pls
My player of the year: YEKINDAR
A tier bait
Is it possible that Falcons will bring in some Russian player and that’s why s1mple isn’t gonna join?
The funny thing is they say the same shit every year
FREYA
*TwistZz is gonna win the major regardless*
I'm trying to pay at least SOME necessery amount of attention.
but
Those eyes.
A compliment.
Alright?
But like.
REAL nice.
Great show...would've liked to get more from Freya...Thorin dominated the whole show? Otherwise really good...
Leave Vitality as is...why change? Look at Navi...
Shocker...Astralis out of the Shanghai? I think there is friction...and we do not see it...
Falcon's...to many big ego's very good players...but yeah...ego's!
Amaranth yeast beer 😢
🙈🙈
Do you call the game CS:GO because of the youtube algorithm?
Nice
Very nice
w vid
😮
I hope monesy doesnt go device route where his gf cheated on him and hes just broken now. I almost wanted to cry looking at monesy really poor performance at the rmr... Bruh please please please monesy wake up and be the champ
Thorin fell off now doing shows with 2 wamen smh
😂😂
:)
I’m pretty sure Vitality are still sharing hotel rooms except ZyWoO gets his own. Maybe, as petty as it sounds, SpinX wants to go somewhere where he’s the best player on the team and treated like it.
