    Russell is one of the few pro players I actually admire, he's the standard of what a professional in his field should be like, and on top of that he's out of this world in terms of skill. People tend to forget how rare it is to find people like him.

      I really do respect him. I knew him as an acquaintance at school and it's true that he was NOT popular... I'm not the hero who stuck up for him but I'm glad CS was able to give him somewhere he belongs and he's been able to shine so bright. Really feels good to watch someone go through the thick of it and come out so respectful, humble and great at something.
      Truly happy for him, and I can say everyone who used to hate on him in bc now mostly cheers him on!!

    If Twistzz is the NA goat then by the same logic Dupreeh HAS to be the goat of overall CS, cause they both have achieved the most respectively. Twistzz has never been the best, or even the 2nd best player on any team he's won with, the reason Twistzz has an impressive resume from liquid is cause Elige (and also NAF) were so good. Twistzz obviously has achieved more and you can argue he's made better moves for his careers to allow him to win more, but Elige across the board has been the better player for longer, despite winning slightly less

    Wait what? Twistzz had plenty of bad games in Faze and they still won. In terms of consistency this year he's barely above 60% (61.5%) which doesn't even have him in the top 30 and with this Liquid lineup I assume he's going to have a lot more pressure on him as I suspect he'll be expected to step up and be the second star of the team over NAF and skullz. Perfect example of why "twistzz is the NA goat because trophies" is a stupid argument is the Sydney grand finals. EliGE was by far the best player in the server with a 1.32 rating in the finals (broky was 2nd with a 1.23) while twistzz was by far the worst player in the server with a 0.75 (2nd worst was karrigan with a 0.86) but Twistzz walked away with the trophy because his team was better in spite of his performance. I don't think Twistzz will have the luxury of winning grand finals with a .75 rating in this Liquid lineup.

    i dont really get the na goat debate, how can the third best player on liquid and fourth best player on faze be the NA goat compared to a perennial top 10 rifler, like seriously Elige was liquid's main man during their era while twistzz during faze's era (using era loosely) was not even really that necessary, its not like he was integral to their wins or anything, he has never won an mvp on faze

      exactly.

    Definitely a 1a 1b situation, but for me it’s still Elige. I don’t think Twistzz has been “the man” in a team yet, where as Elige is definitely the main guy in complexity and was the backbone of that 2019 liquid team. Twistzz hasn’t been a #1 option in a team yet where Elige almost always has been, but depending on how this new liquid roster goes Twistzz could take over as the NA goat.

    u see what i did there
    great is more based on who is the better teamate and who won more
    best is around who is the better player based on fragging
    this is the same analogy for karrigan and gla1ve, gla1ve's 4 majors might never be broekn by karrigan and no one will give karrigan his edge for result winnings, but i think its clear as day he is the better igl, he has made more teams better and is still very good to this day whilst glav1e isnt even a top 5 igl in denmark

      @@SlopsMcChops So hypothetically in this scenario if Dexter had won more with mouz, lets say a major for the sake of the argument, while still individually staying about the same level, you would have to put him as the GOAT over jks for AU. Despite the fact the obviously jks has consistently been a significantly better player over a longer period of time. Because that is the exact same argument as making Twistzz the NA goat. Twistzz is a good player, but because he's a likeable guy with flashy highlights he gets overrated constantly.
