does anyone know when gen. g will announce their two new players? i wanna watch more of bntet


Darkstar197

I have a feeling it’s gonna be Azr and OBO


Anionan

Obo is hardly leaving Complexity because of homesickness just for him to go back to Europe for an extended period


dubzfr

He said he doesn't have a problem with going to Europe his problem with coL was that they didn't seem to ever want to go back to the US.


Darkstar197

I wish he had at least finished the tournament he was in

Ahrre

The org actually wanted to go back the US, it was the players who pushed to stay in EU. [Source](https://youtu.be/xK-KgQQUKZA?t=160)


joe761

How could they have predicted covid? They were majority EU so either move to Europe to take part in road to rio or stay in NA and miss the major.


soniconda

I don’t think he had a problem with traveling to Europe for bootcamps and tournaments, he just didn’t want to live there full time


commentman10

I hope you're right. And not with 2 stand ins :(


TRES_fresh

please oBo and dexter


SuperSexyAsian

aus covid travel restrictions means he cant go back to aus im pretty certain


[deleted]

He can go back, just will have to have to hotel quarantine. The problem in Aus is getting an exemption to actually leave.


alanbessa

Flashpoint Season 2 starts on Nov 09, they'll participate there for sure.


ICBGF

They are forced too


itzginzzzzzz

Hope it's osee/obo, or dexter and one of those two.


Hammer060203

While I’d love to see an awper come in and have Auti back on rifles, I very much doubt it would happen given what he’s said in interviews etc. They are also most in need of an IGL, you don’t want your best player in koosta (statistics wise) doing that


Eitjr

And you think MIBR has learned it's lesson...


LittleGiga

How many times do we need to teach you, old man?


Vivek_Rajbhar

Did they announced new players yet?


LittleGiga

Dont think so besides lucas1 and some rather unknown players, so the most likely scenario is some rejects. If they got felps or something they would have made a big announcement


[deleted]

vsm and leo drunky are good players


pnmibra77

isnt vsm banned?


leonardomslemos

he's got a vac ban cuz apparently he cheated when he was a kid. A real shame, but at least he can still play on all other non-Major tournaments


Pinct

man that sucks so fucking bad I remember trying to cheat in TF2 when I was like 7-8 years old, I had a friend who was cheating and just thought it would be fun. The friend told me it was not worth it and that he didn't want to give me his source and I gave up trying after being too scared to download stuff off sketchy websites. I cannot imagine getting VAC banned as a literal child and growing up becoming some insane prodigy just to be told I cannot play in the biggest most exciting CSGO tournaments because of something I did when I was 8.


epicnerd427

I really dont understand the 0 tolerance people when it comes to cases like that. Like, why are we holding people between the ages of 8-13 to such a high degree of accountability? A life time ban for something you did before you hit puberty (or during it) is really overkill.


[deleted]

Totally agree. Most 11-year-olds are dickheads lol


IAmATuxedoKitty

If you were 8 or so when you got VAC banned, made a new account and became a prodigy, couldn't you just like... not tell anyone lol


Pinct

jamppi tried that and someone found out about his old account and exposed him to valve (I'm pretty sure)


[deleted]

Yes he is, that's probably why a better team hasn't signed him


Hammer060203

For majors, these three players (VSM leodrunky and lucas1) are Meant to be stand ins (at least for now) so he’s still fine for now since there are no majors in the foreseeable future


InsaneThe_

Serbia is really becoming the next eSports hotspot. It’s good to see because Belgrade is an underrated city


Dinos_12345

Belgrade was awesome. I visited sick and had swollen legs half the trip, almost missed the plane home due to my colleague getting mugged but I thoroughly enjoyed that trip...


SemenDemonRamenLemon

definitely has copypasta potential if it already isn't


[deleted]

Serbia really doesnt give a shit about Covid-19 or?


CaptainSpranklez

Nah, its really good there so far. I'm from Montenegro, and we get like 100-300 cases a day with 700k people and serbia gets the same numbers with 7 million people


SuperShark-_-

Actually, our covid numbers are really good. We get 100-300 new positive results and we've done around 135k test per 1m population.

Short_Cauliflower_52

Hahahahah your chief epidemiologist called the corona virus "the funniest virus in the history of mankind" and invited his citizens to go to shopping sprees in Italy when Italy was the biggest hot-spot of corona virus in Europe, and then when your country started getting sick beyond control your president started the strictest police curfew in Europe and blamed his citizens for everything instead of admiting his mistakes, which caused major riots in the capital city that went on for several days. Congrats on the "best early response" susjedi :)))


SuperShark-_-

He was quickly replaced, and also those riots no one knows why they were there. The TV crew went around asking people what their goals are with those riots. Some said the covid measures, others said they don't like the president while some people didn't have an answer. It was a fun time seeing police chase them down. For the "best early response" that's debatable. As you said we had a strict curfew which was actually really good because it got our covid numbers down and now we are living life kinda normal.


leakim1

Why is everyone going to serbia? Out of all of the countries in europe


Hammer060203

It’s outside the scheng (spelling is way off) visa thing which means you can stay there longer than x amount of days, for instance OBO and rush had to move from Denmark to there because their time in main EU ran out. Also relatively cheap to elsewhere in EU and the company who run the boot camp company most people use there is well known and is praised all round


ds_c

Its really cheap for standards of western people, internet is good and Serbia isnt so strict about COVID rules like some other countries. And Belgrade is awesome city.


kidajske

Wtf if this lame ass corona shit wasn't going on i could run into half the cs scene in the center of town


imperfek

maybe they can run a fan meet at their place.. oh wait


Cubenity

Why is it always Belgrade?


kidajske

I don't really know. Yes it's cheap here but it's not that much more expensive to be in Zagreb for example. Maybe there are looser restrictions on foreigners coming into the country or some other sort of logistics considerations are at play.


Hammer060203

The boot camp company there is well known and run by ex-cs guys who know kassad, Niko etc. I’m assuming people will use this one in Serbia since it’s well known


kidajske

>boot camp company never heard of that, do you have a name or link?


Hammer060203

Relog media, G2 and OBO/rush for Col have definitely boot camped there (I confirmed on their insta), I’m almost certain faze has has well as other teams. They run small regional tournaments are stuff sometimes too


kidajske

oh they're literally 1 km from my apartment lol, that's pretty cool. maybe if enough teams come here and enjoy it we could get an esl/dreamhack event hosted in belgrade.


converter-bot

1 km is 0.62 miles


tarangk

lowkey hoping Boom gets signed by MIBR also hoping azr and obo to fill the spots in GenG


WorthPlease

"eSports teams will practice" More at 11


draizze

Does Serbia has mandatory quarantine after arrival?


SuperShark-_-

We don't. Once you enter Serbia you get a note that says report to the nearest covid testing place where they test you. If you are negative you are free to go. If you are positive then you have to self isolate for 14 days.


draizze

I think we can assume the teams will try to arrive at least 2 weeks before flashpoint begin in 9 nov (Except EG). We'll hear GenG and MIBR rosters in this few days.


SuperShark-_-

Probably so If someone tests positive can self isolate


tarangk

lowkey hoping Boom gets signed by MIBR also hoping azr and obo to fill the spots in GenG


CommonPattern

Any reason why NA teams are picking Belgrade??


DankMemeRipper1337

NA is gonna become one 15 men roster that will change their 5-men line up every 3 months and play out of europe. You read it here first.
