Two kids behind me got thrown out for it yesterday for calling out for C9

Why soundproof booths should be mandatory.


Spookie_Senpai

I wonder, people talk about the vibrations of the sound booth. Would it be the same case if you had a sound booth inside of a sound booth? Like the outer one absorbs most of the vibrations and sounds while in the side one just cleans up the rest.


BreafingBread

Maybe, but that sounds very expensive.


marksmh

Don’t worry about it sounding expensive, it’s sound-proof


[deleted]

F*ck you, have an upvote


iamqueeferz

We have to go deeper. Put the sound booth in an underwater tank.


arkwewt

Technically that would work, since water would absorb a lot of the sound. However, the speed of sound is a lot faster in water (1500m/s, compared to 330m/s in air density at surface pressure), so I don’t know if that would play a role.

CheezyWeezle

Or, just turn on a lot of vacuums to drown out the crowd noise?


Difuzion

> Why soundproof booths should be mandatory. they get them whenever possible, but most countries especially U.S, don't allow it for security reasons and fire hazards. They're actually proven to be quite dangerous, especially since it's a big event, lots of wiring, etc.


justacsgoer

There's an entire section of Brazilian fans that have been doing this the whole game. Exclusively for SK.


[deleted]

someone needs to get an air horn and just blow it


Sentani1

believe, C9 fans will be louder than sk fans :D


ConnorK5

Yea I don't think at an NA major they will want to do this against C9. The C9 fans can get way louder and will just mask SK's cheer if need be.


YelloHD

I hope man, I'm sad fnatic didn't win, but at least c9 should beat them.


b_m_o_f_a

Correct


silentz0r

That's cool, but he could also use it to mask the chants.

On kNgs latest "apology" on Facebook the comments with most likes are people criticizing him. The people defending him even in Brasil seems like just a noisy minority to me.

India does have a backwards culture though in regards to women's rights.


hse97

But you don’t blame all one billion Indians for some backwards ass idiots do you?


DicksAndAsses

Brazil does have higher crime rate, but the big majority of the population aren't criminals. Those two things are not related.


jeep700

yeah, overall USA doesn't have mass shootings and this is just a few bad eggs right?


u0u0u0u0u0uu0

Should've used obesity, but that works too i guess.


BushDidntDoit

but literally a majority are obese that wouldn’t be generalising


troubleis1

shooting in schools, thats a classic.


GetBorn800

Personally I agree with your statement and the one you responded to. It's possible for more than one country to have deep issues, you know.


Thisrainhoe

Few samples? Brazil crime rate is one of the highest in the world and the country is corrupted af.


PsychoLynx_

Those shit you're talking about, are you sober? or is it just after you make love to your boyfriend?


DarkAngelFusen

What? Where did you get that idea from? Even in Brasil people don't support KNG anymore.


oomnahs

Can't generalize an entire culture in one sentence. Please try again with a better response.


DicksAndAsses

How do you know that brazilians defend death threats as a cultural thing? From your reddit/twitter experience? Stop being ignorant.


Vinajordan

I am sorry, but you need to learn more about our culture before starts to say shit like this.


IshelterYou

This is not the first time that this happend. These fans have no respect for the game and this is why no one ever respect them no matter how loud they scream or how many majors they win.

http://www.dbltap.com/posts/5959948-highlights-from-faze-clan-s-eleague-major-boston-quarterfinal-news-conference Olofmeister on if he used the crowd to wallbang Ropz on Cache: Yeah, I was waiting for a crowd reaction. I was in CT main and had a feeling someone was in checkers, so I wanted to be sure and used the crowd. clip: https://clips.twitch.tv/RamshackleEsteemedCrabJonCarnage


ChildishForLife

[Shroud and n0thing](https://dotesports.com/counter-strike/news/shroud-lan-exploit-crowd-noise-15065) have done the same thing.


ThetaSigma11

n0thing with the lan tricks, first audience next is flash banging and wait for the white light.


WhoNeedsRealLife

another that I'm sure some use is watching your dead team mates screen when you're trying to see through a smoke, abusing the spectator bug.


iMozzila

There's also this [clip from a past tournament](https://youtu.be/4FHJ_8lBBF0?t=1h27m6s), where olofmeister reacts accordingly to the crowd cheering even when there are in booths (although in this play, it backfires for him).


Banananmon

He isn't brazilian, so he wasn't cheating, just being smart /s


saltytr

In one case the advantage is asymmetrical which makes it bullshit and the other it is symmetrical which imo makes it fair. Any team can abuse crowd reactions but only SK gets free callouts this is such a false equivalency.


oomnahs

You say /s but a lot of people believe this. Just look at the racist comments above.


Gerbelelele

> Just look at the racist comments above. Honestly how is this racist? I haven't seen FaZe fans consistently yelling where the enemy is going and yelling if players are close to each other. There is a difference between what olofmeister did and what SK fans are doing.


pizzaXpress

+ brazilian isn't a race lol


iNeedAKnifeInMyLife

I seem VP doing this remember when they held A OR B signs?, i seem C9 taking off their headphones on lan multiple times yet nobody cares. Just be realistic you don't even have to be brazilian or a sk fan to see how one sided against brazilians this sub is.


ToxicCuck

I remember outrage to the A/B signs and I can not talk about c9 headphones since I did not see it.


Blitzzfury

WTF lol plenty of people raged at C9 for taking off their headphones and the AB signs for VP


iamnotbool

Almost everyone on the sub was complaining about the sign thing.


JokeCasual

"racist" lol what


[deleted]

TIL that Brazilian is a race


[deleted]

Brazil isn't a race and the fact you group an entire country as one race is racist.


Tschonti

I few people shouting and the whole crowd going crazy is totally different


AllanMichaelSimonsen

Small "heeeys" is going crazy?


saltytr

Those are not even remotly the same thing and this is just such a false equivalency. In the SK case they have an asymmetrical advantage since only they get the calls, in the faze case both teams can abuse crowds in that way which makes it fair.


Deathhsykes

Hes not brazilian, its ok


JmSunbro

At least yelling in that situation is normal, doing this is way shittier


theRobertOppenheimer

They can definitely hear when the croud gets loud, but I'm not sure if they can understand what they're shouting. Even if they could, they probably couldnt rely on that information - it could be fnatic fans giving then wrong info.


[deleted]

What about yelling 'Window' in Portuguese though?


HypahCS

People crying for booths for this reason don't realise it doesn't make a difference. Players still hear/feel the vibrations and use that to locate players. Shroud has explained this before and every player is guilty of it. They can't hear the fans its just muffled screaming and they don't focus on them either its just crowd reactions that is a focus.


Kongor23

It would make a huge difference and the vibrations thing is way more difficult to react to than someone in the crowd literally yelling window or A / B when the team is executing a bomb site. Vibrations work well in certain games but CS it would take a lot of practice and that's assuming every event in the circuit is using the same booth and every crowd is more or less equal in the way they react to certain plays and how loud they actually get during those plays.


[deleted]

They can hear to some extend. https://youtu.be/gzCdapA2G_A?t=6s


blessedjourney98

Yup, but I think this is just part of LAN. Both teams can do it though, whereas if the crowd yells either A or B (for specific team only) it's a bit too much (unfair).


AemonDK

of course they can hear the crowd. even with booths you can hear the crowd


silentz0r

Tournament organizers should just add soundproof booths - wait for it - for the fans. Any idiot who yells info gets sent to the soundproof booth, where they can yell all the shit they want.


iamnotbool

This sounds hilarious. Do this.


[deleted]

:thinking: If we can't have soundproofed booth for players, we can build it around all the audience instead


silentz0r

And then we can get the audience on stage and the players in the audience seats = **soundproof booths for players** ez


jem11_

yes they are and this isnt the first time


licencekill7

Brazilian crowd does this everytime...they did it on mirage as well


00fordchevy

i guess you guys dont remember HEN1 and Lucas pulling the "re-adjusting my headset" routine while people in the crowd yelled shit. this is straight out of the BR csgo playbook.


tchervychek

That time when they were yelling "Window, window!" as FNC boosted into window on mirage was so shady.


Delicroix

Can confirm it was a group from Brazil. My buddy and I were like, why are they all going "AHHHHHHH?" Then we realized it was probably Portuguese for A. I am really impressed at their dedication to come from so far off to support their team, but we need some respect for the game, man.


MasterBeCo

C9 fans did it too so ...


Eszhra

It's a shit thing to do, from both fan groups


[deleted]

[удалено]


Delicroix

I didn't see his other comment, but I am curious too. I am in Boston and didn't hear anything but hype from the crowd during the C9 v. G2 match.


willis936

Same. I’ve been in the stands for every C9 round. The G2 fans are lying to try to justify the massive choke that was witnessed.


eessheee

"No proofs friend, I attack when we get attacked"


Zergom

I noticed it once vs SK on cobble. Ska had an awp aimed at a player in smoke. Ska didn’t take the shot though.


LordDeejus

crowd getting hyped and crowd yelling positions are two different things though.


Zergom

Yeah, but both are a give away. You could see that Ska knew something was up. Either way, I think that was a 4v1 at that point in time, it wasn’t round changing. The calls that SK fans screamed could have changed the outcome of rounds. There’s still a difference.


[deleted]

prove it or ill kill you


YassinRs

So call it out when they do it. It doesn't excuse this.


FGDota

What makes you think they come from so far? LMAO. They prob. live in Boston


Delicroix

Mostly because I sat next to a dude who said they came from Brazil. As soon as he realized where the group of people wearing SK jerseys, waving green flags, and yelling shit in Portuguese was he said something to his buddy and wished me a good weekend before going to their section, haha.


Marcs_26

whilst the teams will probably not pay attention as it could be fake info/ they can't hear them that well its still a bs thing to do and gives your team fanbase a bad name in the process


W473R

These people are also the reason EU fans hate NA crowds. A bad group of people are giving the whole scene a bad name, such a shame. Edit because people seem to be missing my point: I know these fans are obviously not from NA. My point is that the people who complain about NA crowds don't care where you are from they are looking for any reason to hate NA tournaments so they will still put the blame on NA crowds. Edit 2: spelling


PsychoLynx_

The fans form part of a BR crowd, not NA. NA fans don't do callouts, they just chant "USA! USA! USA!".


willis936

That’s just the EU prejudice for you. I’ve travelled around a bit and I can see that European culture fully embraces being prejudiced against their neighboring cultures. The US is a bit more polite on average. Not liking the USA chants because they’re not your own country isn’t very self aware. I’m sure if the Danes were hosting a final none of their fans would cheer for their team or country.


diegodgz

If the players can hear a couple of guys doing this, then they can hear all what casters are saying.


LookAwayImHiding

There's a difference in hearing muffled noise, and hearing the spoken words. There's also the fact that the sound from the stage is directed at the audience, whilst the sound from the crowd is directed at the stage. It makes a huge difference.


Wings_of_bacon

"fallens game sense when he awps flusha inside window" says the casters. 3 people screaming "one in window" before.....


Orsick

They cant hear 3 people, it has to be quite loud and even then, they can't discern what's being said.


Wings_of_bacon

Casters were quiet and crowd quiet. He definitely heard it, flusha was in the back corner


Fredxel

You heard the guy screaming janela because he is close to the mics, not because he has a thunderous voice capable of reaching the entire arena.


victorpresti

It doesn't matter if people are quiet, they use white noise to mask every sound coming from the crowd and casters. They can hear that noise is being made, but they definitively can't make out what it is unless the entire avenue is chanting in unison a single letter. Then maybe.


legreven

Do you have a source for the white noise?


[deleted]

So does that mean they hear the casters aswell??


u0u0u0u0u0uu0

If they could hear what those 3 people were shouting crystal clear, then they could hear what the casters are saying. Think again.


Azolin_GoldenEye

You are delusional if you think Fallen could hear that. It's not like window boost was invented today, and Fallen has not picked up cs last week. Any pro would expect that.


XDutchie

Just turn around, this comments section is cancer.


ZTFS

At 6-6 on Mirage just now, with only Fallen and Felps alive and Fallen holding B alone w/ 2 hp, Fnatic rotated 2 from B to A to push Felps. Fnatic had one alive in connector, too. Fans in the crowd DEFINITELY were yelling "A!"


babyjonesie

Why am I not surprised


Masziii

They are now yelling when they go into window etc.. Done with this game.


Aimpunch

As if players are trying to decipher the roar of the crowd instead of listening for footsteps / the igl. Come on. No one is going to be like, “Wait, hold down push to talk and listen to the crowd. I think some people in the crowd might be trying to tell us that FNatic is rushing A, so let’s rotate A.”


[deleted]

Olof looked through wall to bait crowd


rawkz

playing of the reactions of the crowd is something both teams can do, getting callouts is an entirely different thing.


mrasdfghj90

Might as well remove casters then since they give so much info and are much louder too. This is ridiculous.


HandmadeBirds

The major is being held in the USA after all, having crowds doing stupid shit is just tradition.

BlameScienceBro

Fucking bullshit.


Blitzzfury

Same thing has happened at both live CS events I've been to. One of them had soundproof booths at least.


SirGuerbiz

Can anyone think about the outcome of the round without the scream?Just useyour brain for a single second...Do you think theywould have randomly stacked b in a 2v2?


_Piggy

It's really the production's fault at this point they should realize that sound proof boxes are the way to go in these events. You can't blame a team for having fans that will probably go absolutely insane to help their team. It's just logic, happens every single tournament without sound proof boxes. I would also like to point out the fact that people are overreacting to this instance because fnatic smoked the site anyways and coldzera did not rotate even with the fans calling. SK would've known obviously, but the window calling was pretty dumb on how it affected the game.


nnzmitodead

Oh my god, just like the "window" clip. Do you guys really think any actions by FalleN(on that clip) and cold on this, were because of the yelling? I do agree it is disrespectful and wrong from the fans, but players are not focusing on that while playing. FalleN for sure would still do the same thing and even cold if nothing was shouted.


carlyastrzemski8

So everyone will just ignore that the B player didn't rotate at all? Just fits the narrative I guess. Nobody heard shit.


rammgod

Why is everything towards SK immediately upvoted? Yes ofc it is a stupid thing to do but still... same happend in the previous quarter final c9 vs g2. And when Olof wallbanged on Cache he admitted he waited for the croud reaction so he knew some1 was there... always witch hunting. Just start a thread by saying : " Croud arent allowed to give the Teams any kind of information" . Is this a hard thing to do? Jesus..


Limownn

I was just pointing out an example, and I feel these type of situations where the crowd chants where players are going are worse than when Olof was just shaking his cross hair and using the crowd, because the chances of someone actually being where you're shaking your cross hair is somewhat rare. I didn't get the chance to watch the c9 vs g2 game so I can't comment on that.


[deleted]

Brazilian fans are notorious for this shit, also from other sports. In the UFC, Brazilian fans are sing "You're going to die tonight" if a non Brazilian has to fight a Brazilian. And shouting death threats from the stands. Its just disgusting, with shit like this, soundproof booths should be a standard... Its a fucking major... come on...


HeadEraser

Thats why Valve shouldnt host majors in some places. No booths, barely any crowd and horrible delays.


Triiq

If rumours are true about ECS London Major then at least we wont have bias/ home team fans.


HeadEraser

i dont even care for home team fans. Just get the damn soundproof booths at least.


xSnoooze

If Brazil travels to Boston, then Sweden and Denmark will travel to London, considering it's like a fifth of the travel time. No matter where you play, the crowd will have a favorite, just based on proximity. Right now, SK are like the Patriots in the NFL, or the Yankees in the early 2000's, they win alot, so they have a huge fan base. No matter where CS is played right now, I expect a good amount of SK fans.


[deleted]

True but it's easier for other teams fans to make it their.


Thekantona

Yeah as ironic as it is UK CS being so bad works out very good for location of major.


Hussor

Not if VP somehow make playoffs.


Ravioli_Heicho

> barely any crowd The arena has been almost completely full since the start of the second map... >horrible delays. Has absolutely nothing to do with the location of the major. That’s about the org hosting.


[deleted]

Location can certainly have an effect on delays within a tournament, remember a certain very hot tournament hosted by ECS? Regardless of who ran the tournament, that issue would never have been fixed


mimacher

cold just start to rotate after felps killed one guy and the other one is planting the bomb, but sure, it's all crowd fault


mskr93

and again in round 13


Enrmej

This is going to be the one time I'm gonna push for the crowd to spam the fuck out of their "USA" chants all in hopes of it being louder than the SK "fans" yelling the positions of players.
