Looking at the facecams in blast and looking at them from any other tournament there is a huge difference, without NiKo they were having fun even while losing, they were smiling. When Niko was there, everyone was tilting. They were getting tilted even when they would be up by 4-5. Niko leaving can make FaZe an even better team cause I think Niko was destroying the teams mentality.
Nah i dont think so, it depends on the match they playing. Theres one time where faze absolutely got wrecked with niko and they're still having fun and even laughing about it
Felt like NiKo brought such a toxic vibe, they can now be a team again under a real IGL and play for each other instead of only NiKo. Broky will only get better, and with the firepower they already have and with Colds work ethic I think this is a win/win situation for both parts. I think FaZe Clan will become a really good team for sure.
If Faze are better off without Niko then that would speak volumes about his character. On paper it's pretty hard to imagine that removing a tier 1 rifler and awper thats also the IGL would make a team better.

Yo yall remember when this happend in 2017? Niko teamed up with some god awper and some good IGL and they supposed to win everything with 2 Kovačs on the team?
if Niko really wants to win a Major, he really need a Konfig moment. Realizing his mistakes and shortcomings. Improving on it and not running away from it.
The Bosnian brat doesn't think that he has any weaknesses, that's the main issue. Whenever he dies or loses in a game, he acts like it's either the fault of the game mechanics or his teammates.
Can't wait for Niko "helping Nexa" with shotcalling as he stated in the interview. What exactly is he gonna help him with? Benching players if they don't frag out? Executes? Oh I know it spotting future talent, Fallen for KennyS is coming guys. Seriously do you even want Niko if you are Nexa? You are on the hot seat now the guy is basically Tarik, will make it his team and if you don't win at some point he might come and backstab you.
@@worm9862 in regards of the Daps Evil Geniuses situation, it was said that Tarik like Niko is very difficult to work with and will interfere if things don't go as he wants them to go.

This guy is the only guy that sees the point , I've been with faze since 2017 , and I've seen everything that happened , and it's all true that he says , since karrigan left the team was build around niko, he had all the choices, he had the team , he had the choices, and after he is fed up he just fucks off , just like thorin said they should of got Alex or MSL when they had a chance but they never did
The simple comparison is accurate. But simple was a literal child, Niko just makes up shit because he’s allowed too. Not because he deserves it but because everyone tells him he does deserve it.
I actually have a little faith in maLeK and Ocelote, and hope they can get through to this guy's inner core, and spin him around into something great again.
i guess it all depends on whether this is the honeymoon period or if this is gonna be the permanent change to the G2 roster. For the foreseeable future during the online era i can't see the team tanking after this strong of a start but anything can happen when everything transforms back into LAN
Eh mousesports were shot for a looong time after he left. Not until they got was it sunni? or ropz before he was known as talent that they did semi decent and karrigan made them top5
@@Hanley209 Yeah Mousesports was terrible, both before, during, and after NiKO, he literally carried them and they still couldn't pull their shit together when they realized what they had. But the FaZe thing truly is the case, he just made them way worse towards the end, trying to fucking IGL for some reason.
mousesports does better with complete different roster, only chrisJ was left, FaZe was consistent top2 team before karrigan gets kicked. Two years they were on top, onlyt this year they've become shit
If G2 does well, NiKo and G2 won’t have issues. NiKo can chill and just frag. If G2 starts struggling...oh boy will this be a glorious infernal. They won their group against Astralis but looked pretty shaky struggling to close, going deep against MiBR and dropping the first set to Astralis. Jackz sat out this group and Amanek really stepped up. Again no issues yet but...
Can you pls do a vid talking abt what makes g2 as an org so good not just their csgo and lol teams individualy. Because i feel like with g2 they seem to be head and shoulders above any other org at recruitment coaching and at being a team.
The difference with him joining G2 is that he's playing with Kenny S. You know that they would rather keep Kenny than him because Kenny is the face of the franchise. Besides, he has a relative he's close to on the same roster who can talk to him when things go off and I'd say, a strong IGL in Nexa. Everyone on that team wants to win and everyone is going to call each other out. This team is good for him.
At this point we need a history of thorin vs niko and probably put these 2 against each other in a ring. This is just to much for me, who cares about ingame rivalries anymore when you can have this banter going on. If you haven't watch by the numbers #130 where they talk about the mousesports bar tab, just gives this whole thing so much more spice. I have to do a timeline of this, hopefully niko responds soon
I can't believe it... FaZe had rain, karrigan, NiKo, Olof, and Guardian and they fucking blew it by dumping one of the best IGL's of all time for a star player as if they didn't already have 3 other stars in rain, Olof, and Guardian Update: And they end up bringing back Karrigan and he’s actually rising up in individual skill as well. Broky is popping off, rain got his roles back from coldzera, Olof is back, and while Twistzz isn’t at his best he has the potential. FaZe could rise up with this roster if they get settled in and I think bringing back LAN with an IGL like Karrigan who is known for hyping up his team will shoot them up in the rankings at least to top 15 pretty quickly. Also listening to the Comms on FaZe over on Karrigan’s channel it’s clear that they all get along and are actually having fun playing together and getting better together. The FaZe management caved into NiKo and fucked up a potential dynasty. While Karrigan was tanking at the time he tried to take a step back and assess the situation and get some rest and NiKo decided to pressure him, saying he was tanking because he wasn’t pulling his own weight with individual practice. Meanwhile Karrigan was actually burnt out and needed team support which he never received. This new roster has that support.
Get nexa on an interview, as a long supporting g2 fan i am very huped with this niko possibility l, but also very aprihensive to ses is bis ego remains supreme and it becomes the niko show. I hope not because if malek and nexa can keep him grounded we will see the best g2 we have in years
I get your points. But why do you bash NiKo now for leaving FaZe when in another video you made a few months ago If I recall correctly, you were actually saying that the best option for NiKo would now be to just leave Faze, go to another team and let faze get an IGL. And why to keep praising karrigan now? His team has been shit this year, constantly dropping out in group stages, I think they dont even have enough RMR points to qualify for the major.
I mean, it was his best option but imagine in what position he left coldzera in where cold litterally came to serbia away from his family to play with niko, and that tweet from coldzera's mother is just the cherry on top. Also he tanked Ynk's stock as a coach who he considers as an older brother. Basically drove the titanic to the iceberg and then dipped the fuck out with the only lifesupport boat to another ship.
Also, an IGL who has brought 3 teams to the top of the CS scene while also being able to develop legendary players early in their careers like he did with old tsm/astralis and 2019 mouz. No one has ever done that, so why is it not worth the praise? He not only depeloved the core of the astralis line up and achived relative success but also was able to revitalize the faze lineup that had kio, rain and allu later having niko, and that 2019 mouz success easily put him as a contender for GOAT igl. Basically, brought a team that was relegated from major status to a tier 1 championship win and also a temporary no.1 spot in the hltv rankings which was worth more before the pandemic resulted in online exclusive scene.
YT: Underrated or Overrated: Thorin? NiKo: Overrated (2secs) Thorin: Roasts NiKo for 30mins. But honestly, he just basically said same thing over and over again. Like, how many times did you mention Karrigan? Then, go on about another thing, a minute later, you go back to Karrigan. No hate here about Thorin. I like a lot of his videos. But c'mon man.
"Like that fkn shit that was next to Jabber the Hut in return of the Jedi" HAHAHAHAHA!!! "Get this fucking vermin out of my face" God Thorin.... You've done it again LOL!!! #quality
I could literally have made the exact same rant , there was still hopes for faze after karrigan got kicked, I said it at the time , they can easily get MSL or Alex when they were available but nah ,they get fucking adren, like the fuck , then neo , just washed up old players that didnt fit the team, I also said that he brings coldzera to Europe a year has passed and he leaves him like that, what was the point bringing him in when u just leave anyways , I just hope faze can rebuild again, get some good pieces back together, as thoria said , they could easily get fallen, he would come to faze , that's Ur IGl and he was a great IGl alongside cold again they would wanna play, then u have broky, great young player alot of potential and he can rifle and AWP well so there won't be a problem with that, then if olof stays brilliant , u have alot of experience as well as a great lurker if rain goes it's sad cuz he is the only player left that was there from the start but it is what it is
1 month later on HLTVorg: "G2 nexa and maleK kicked for coldzera and YnK; NiKo to be IGL"

I hope not because if malek and nexa can keep him grounded we will see the best g2 we have in years
16:56 the one man theatre :)
From what i've seen in niko's cam, he malds like he is igl.
Just love these vids mate
Holy shit this is soo spot on. GG
This is one of the best RUclips videos I've ever seen
I'd watch an entire channel devoted to Thorin roasting Niko lol
I get your points. But why do you bash NiKo now for leaving FaZe when in another video you made a few months ago If I recall correctly, you were actually saying that the best option for NiKo would now be to just leave Faze, go to another team and let faze get an IGL.
And why to keep praising karrigan now? His team has been shit this year, constantly dropping out in group stages, I think they dont even have enough RMR points to qualify for the major.
I was thinking the same lmao. Baitmaster Thorin
I mean, it was his best option but imagine in what position he left coldzera in where cold litterally came to serbia away from his family to play with niko, and that tweet from coldzera's mother is just the cherry on top. Also he tanked Ynk's stock as a coach who he considers as an older brother. Basically drove the titanic to the iceberg and then dipped the fuck out with the only lifesupport boat to another ship.
Also, an IGL who has brought 3 teams to the top of the CS scene while also being able to develop legendary players early in their careers like he did with old tsm/astralis and 2019 mouz. No one has ever done that, so why is it not worth the praise? He not only depeloved the core of the astralis line up and achived relative success but also was able to revitalize the faze lineup that had kio, rain and allu later having niko, and that 2019 mouz success easily put him as a contender for GOAT igl. Basically, brought a team that was relegated from major status to a tier 1 championship win and also a temporary no.1 spot in the hltv rankings which was worth more before the pandemic resulted in online exclusive scene.
YT: Underrated or Overrated: Thorin?
NiKo: Overrated (2secs)
Thorin: Roasts NiKo for 30mins.
But honestly, he just basically said same thing over and over again. Like, how many times did you mention Karrigan? Then, go on about another thing, a minute later, you go back to Karrigan.
No hate here about Thorin.
I like a lot of his videos.
But c'mon man.
"Like that fkn shit that was next to Jabber the Hut in return of the Jedi" HAHAHAHAHA!!!
"Get this fucking vermin out of my face"
God Thorin.... You've done it again LOL!!! #quality
I could literally have made the exact same rant , there was still hopes for faze after karrigan got kicked, I said it at the time , they can easily get MSL or Alex when they were available but nah ,they get fucking adren, like the fuck , then neo , just washed up old players that didnt fit the team, I also said that he brings coldzera to Europe a year has passed and he leaves him like that, what was the point bringing him in when u just leave anyways , I just hope faze can rebuild again, get some good pieces back together, as thoria said , they could easily get fallen, he would come to faze , that's Ur IGl and he was a great IGl alongside cold again they would wanna play, then u have broky, great young player alot of potential and he can rifle and AWP well so there won't be a problem with that, then if olof stays brilliant , u have alot of experience as well as a great lurker if rain goes it's sad cuz he is the only player left that was there from the start but it is what it is
The imitations were icing on the cake of NiKo roast
Your content is sooo good!

Thorins eyes got that cracked out on energy drink twinkle
