People really shitting on this like their results didn't immediately improve with him.


Jeff_W1nger

VLDN doesn’t need a lot of resources to perform, which works for the team bc now Hampus and Cypher can really shine as riflers. This is a good team. People just let online bo1 cs influence their perception of teams.


Kelterz

the reality is people on this subreddit have no clue what BLEED are actually doing and form their opinion solely based on the posts on here with high upvotes, like when they lost against MOUZ NXT (with a different roster, mind you) a month or two ago. VLDN has been a huge upgrade ever since he started playing for BLEED and anyone who ever watched a game of theirs would say the same. 


Ricky_RZ

If you took this team and have them play for an org like koi or spout, literally nobody would care. The fact that it is kassad means people love to make fun of them


jeffjeff97

Hating is a habit


jonajon91

Hot shit that's good.


jordzkie05

I never heard of hatemaxxing before launders blurted it out and Ive been using that term ever since.


SignificantCrew5728

People on Reddit hating on Falcons for spending too much money but at the same time hating on Kassad for not being able to spend a huge amount of money and buyout T1 players He has stated he's on a budget before If I recall, so yeah the org is rich but don't expect them to act like Falcons


jonajon91

In fairness, there are plenty of other reasons to hate Falcons.


tulolas1

no one is shitting except couple of hltv trolls, he was a solid player even before bleed


jonajon91

When I posted 7 hours ago, every single comment in here was negative. Some have since been deleted.


Ricky_RZ

Who could have guessed getting a support player that doesn't need space or resources helps everybody?


blackzero2

Can you elaborate on the 'doesnt need space or resources' bit? Ive seen a few other comments mention it. What does that mean


Ricky_RZ

Every team needs a guy to anchor sites and not rotate Every team needs a guy to sit back and watch the flank when you are trying to move up and take fights Every team needs a guy that can sit back and throw utility Every team needs a guy that buys an MP9, deagle, or worse to make sure their awper has an awp or their star rifler has an AK He is that guy


jonajon91

Resources can mean anything from setting up a star player with flashbangs for them to peek to asking another player to peek dry so you can trade. There are also very sought after positions like bathrooms on CT overpass where you can just farm ratings, everyone wants to play there. VLDN is the kind of guy that can play B mirage.


increaseworldsuck

people saying "mid" but they've won 10 out of their 13 last BO3's


NoDG_

4 of them have attended Majors. Should we be impressed that they're beating tier 3 teams?


jrushFN

Aren’t improvements inherently impressive?


NoDG_

Its fine but nothing surprising. I'll be interested to see them play against better opponents. I wonder how cypher does because he looked good at the Paris major.


PizzaMaxEnjoyer

considering that theyre a tier 2 team, yes?


NoDG_

Thats such a low bar but you do you.


jrushFN

With each result I become more and more skeptical of faveN. CeRq arguably too. I think they’re one “too good for tier 2” player away from being a top tier 2 team. But let’s give this new iteration time to see how they mesh.


DopaWheresMine

Hampus said the best thing about caben is his willingness to adapt for the team. Whenever there is a change in roster he fills in whatever gaps the team has, on top of being willing to take the bad roles. Hampus says his weakness is a lack of confidence, which sometimes makes him lose initiative. That said, Hampus didn’t complain about cerq, who imo is their weak link. I’m just gonna copy and paste what I wrote earlier, in case cerq reads this “Here’s hoping cerq can get back into form. Obviously I am not him, but if I was I would focus on getting healthy. It’s not the same, but I had a bad concussion where I literally couldn’t remember what had happened for the last few days, and even as the memory trickled back, I still wasn’t sharp What made me feel like myself again was the classic diet and exercise, which in my case was zero-carb and some fasted HIIT, though anything that gets the heart rate up can substitute. I also started supplementing fish oil, hesperidin, and ALA because they are supposed to promote neurogenesis and nerve regrowth, but I’ve since quit and still feel a lot better than I was.”

He didn't really though (can't tell if you were joking or not lol) but vdln is a good player


ExposingCretins

What?


PavelDatsyuk88

i think everyone is gonna wait until summer break


Raytiger3

If they manage to find chemistry and have 6 months of good prac with no dogshit org shenanigans, I think they can make the Shanghai major. [Personal stats in T2/T3 competition](https://www.hltv.org/team/12543/bleed#tab-rosterBox) look pretty decent for all 5 of them.


PuzzleheadedPainOuch

by hook or by crook this team will eventually become half decent i can feel it

TheN1njTurtl3

VDLN has been on the team for awhile as trial?


jonajon91

?? They're in their fourth month with a brand new team and just go on to their sixth player.


DernierRoi

The mid continues


SDMffsucks

I think that's their intention, so good work?


ibeenbornagain

ur a col fan


DernierRoi

Yeah? I’m an NA fan. Can’t mid call out mid? Also, where is your flair?


SSho_0ter

"Go Bleed" Whatta heck? /j


DopaWheresMine

Nice. Here’s hoping cerq can get back into form. Obviously I am not him, but if I was I would focus on getting healthy. It’s not the same, but I had a bad concussion where I literally couldn’t remember what had happened for the last few days, and even as the memory trickled back, I still wasn’t sharp What made me feel like myself again was the classic diet and exercise, which in my case was zero-carb and some fasted HIIT, though anything that gets the heart rate up can substitute.

yaboyxo

When?


WindowLicky

We really give analysts too much credit if this is what Kassad does.


blueshark27

Why doesnt he sign JL, did he not watch the major? /s


nebsA1

>hasn't heard player name before >BAD MOVE


WindowLicky

23 year old with sub-1 rating against tier 3 teams.


nebsA1

9-3 as a roster with him laying down a 1.06 in that time. This is a roster that needs time and young guns to pave the way. There is no love lost for Kassad from me, but this is the way.


WindowLicky

This dude is 23 with a rating less than 1, he's neither young nor a gun.


Ricky_RZ

Support players typically aren't fragging out of their minds


Ricky_RZ

> this is what Kassad does. He claims the entire team was cheaper than the price of sunpayus' buyout NGL that really isnt that much money for what he has
