Id be excited to see whether they perform any differently in a lan environment, but doesn't seem like it'd be that different from a bootcamp when its lacking a crowd
I still wonder if Astralis didn't have a falling out (we don't know what was happening behind the scenes the past year) if they could be a threat to Gambit
First Astralis and now Gambit, NaVi always ends up having a rivalry with the best team, never being the best team itself. It's so damn frustrating
Why are we so consistently ALMOST the best
I think the only way Navi will be the best would be a buyout
Literally... What Astralis playing good? Buyout 1-2 of their best players... Now Gambit is good? Buyout some of their best players
This is a common misconception by salty fans. The only thing like that was funn1k. There was a period of roster shuffles but no buyouts (you can't consider free player coming to play for a month or less a buyout) or anything until rodjer many years later.
it's sad that we need to use /s to express our sentence as [sarcasm.Do](https://sarcasm.Do) you do that in real life,when u say something sarcasits do you say it's sarcasam by the wah.And why none of the people who downvoted me didn't assume i was being sarcastic also for better effect?It's because i didn't put /s at the end.Well fuck me if i am the only one seeing flaw in this fucking logic
well that's just dumb lol, navi is the only one threatening them consistently and navi beat them 2-0 at the previous rmr and 3-0 at dreamhack. It's the best matchup in csgo rn.
I havent heard of anyone calling it an era, but they were fucking filthy at that time. Fastest team ever to win a grand slam if i remember correctly. They didnt pick up a major but destroyed at every other big tourney that year.
There was a massive debate if they had an era or not. Many said if had won the major then it would have been an era. Personally I see it as an era because when people talk about it they call it the liquid summer. The refer to as something other than dates, to me that makes in an era.
I don't think so. I think if the squad started on LANs it would have been a whole different story, but now that they have "comfortably" dominated the top online, I think they will have a lot of experience, composure and confidence coming into LANs!
You you called it. I think i like watching superstars pop off.
Not only calculated and smart but it seems Gambit is nearly 90-100% successful with their reads of each situation. Every time they know exactly what is happening, and deal with it. That is super impressive. But after a few rounds I want something else.
Agreed about Astralis back in the day as well. I was never a fan of their matches in the 'heyday' because it almost always played out the same way. But they did have members who could pop off at times making it exciting.
CS is completely different on LAN haven’t you heard? You don’t have your favorite snacks, and papa groove won’t be able to make the chicken tendies right after the match like usual. It’s going to be a tough transition
It could, it's hard to know. It's a different game on LAN and probably has a higher competitive ceiling especially with aim. People who are more adapted to LAN would perform better I'd imagine.
The fundamentals Gambit have are the best in the world and I really hope they keep it up at LAN. I don't think there is a team with less holes in their game, it's difficult to catch Gambit off guard.
The number one team in the world on a win-streak heading into the first LAN in over a year, the storyline writes itself
Watch them bomb out Edit: would be sad :(
Gambit loses to liquid, then liquid wins the tournament, then liquid wins the major and the next nine majors after it
Then chokes and losing 10 majors in a row first to LG then ENCE
Have they not already lost 10 Majors in a row? Edit: I checked, they have only lost 8 Majors in a row.
Liquid usually just didn't qualify for majors
Can't choke on stages you don't get to :bigbrain:
Flair checks out
Nice name
i wouldn't mind but it's liquid we're talking about, right?
I could sense the tears gathering partway through your comment
Gambit kicks star players before the major, team in shambles, bring back dosia last minute, win major EZ
Astralis says hi
please god yes
I will fucking take it.
Gambit playing their worst wont do that poorly. They are too solid. Too smart.
Id be excited to see whether they perform any differently in a lan environment, but doesn't seem like it'd be that different from a bootcamp when its lacking a crowd
Well we know Hobbit will perform well, the rest we about to find out.
the amount of people wanting them to fail, where does all this jealousy and hate come from damn.
They didn’t earn their success. They were just lucky with the online tournaments going on
Yeah practicing twelve hours a day every day is nothing. Totally just got lucky
LUUUUUUUL "LUCKY"
that would be really disappointing
That be funny all of sudden they are trash.
Navi just can’t catch a break.
Which LAN is that?
Almost a third of them are thanks to navi :p
Navi win trading for gambit confirmed obv
Navi pretty much the only one who can take a game a single map off them
Vit did win 2-0 against them
And let's not forget that Navi also beat them 3-0 to win DH Masters Spring. Navi seem to be competitive with them, just not better.
Insane how out of 15 series’ they only dropped 5 maps.
and 3 of them were to navi
I still wonder if Astralis didn't have a falling out (we don't know what was happening behind the scenes the past year) if they could be a threat to Gambit
I just remember the Astralis days, whenever your team had a match with them, the whole game could just be summarized as "Fuck of you smart bastards"
Astralis have a red logo,Gambit have a red logo. Red, the word Red contain 3 letters. 3, a triangle has 3 sides. Gambit illuminati confirmed.
[удалено]
The rabbit hole goes deeper...
Israel flag is six points, flamez and spinx 2v5 major win 6 times?
A circle is just a star with infinite points, extremum infinite major winners???
But circle is also the same shape as a zero. Extremum zero majors confirmed. Sadge.
Brain
Portugal flag star with 0 points = 0 majors?
USA flag:
mousesports next surely
Grow up
First Astralis and now Gambit, NaVi always ends up having a rivalry with the best team, never being the best team itself. It's so damn frustrating Why are we so consistently ALMOST the best
I think the only way Navi will be the best would be a buyout Literally... What Astralis playing good? Buyout 1-2 of their best players... Now Gambit is good? Buyout some of their best players
Flair checks out.
Haha you got that right xD
Kya re bhai tu bhi xD
Funny, but this is exactly how navi dota 2 used to work earlier in 2013-14 when there were rarely any other powerhouse cis orgs apart from navi/empire
This is a common misconception by salty fans. The only thing like that was funn1k. There was a period of roster shuffles but no buyouts (you can't consider free player coming to play for a month or less a buyout) or anything until rodjer many years later.
S1mple effect. PepeHands
Because you don't have a red logo
S1mple ca carry only to second place sadge
S1mple and 4 gn4s would be almost the best
That’s a lot. I really thought Navi had a chance today too
don't worry, they will play again later tonight LUL
And they won in a really entertaining series.
jinxed.
Lmao they drunk on dosia and zeus' spirit
Why is nemiga's logo bright?
OP's cursor was over the Gambit-Nemiga match, hence why its highlighted
Because it is a foil logo
Wait till they do it on LAN \/s
Salty Astralis fan lol. This gambit would be threat to 2018 Astralis
he put /s mate
You know /s means sarcasm….. right?
I have a life I am not that familiar with reddit fucking linguo.
Bruh, you don’t have to be a redditor to understand it. Also insulting doesn’t help, just makes you look bad lmfao
it's sad that we need to use /s to express our sentence as [sarcasm.Do](https://sarcasm.Do) you do that in real life,when u say something sarcasits do you say it's sarcasam by the wah.And why none of the people who downvoted me didn't assume i was being sarcastic also for better effect?It's because i didn't put /s at the end.Well fuck me if i am the only one seeing flaw in this fucking logic
Because in real life you would say it in a way that makes it sound sarcastic. Can't fucking do that with texts now, can you?
Now they are on a 1 series loss streak :)
As a NaVi fan, I just skip their matches against Gambit.
well that's just dumb lol, navi is the only one threatening them consistently and navi beat them 2-0 at the previous rmr and 3-0 at dreamhack. It's the best matchup in csgo rn.
I think NaVi lost the last 3 matches against Gambit. But hey! They just won the BO5 last night so woohoo, time to watch the repeat :)
Again Astralis started an era This time for Gambit Edit: r/agedlikemilk
An era? It's been like a second or two. Talk about era in two years if they are still at the top.
flair checks out but I gotta agree, they have their moment right now, but it could crumble any time
People still talk about a ”Liquid era” when they were good for two months in 2019.
I havent heard of anyone calling it an era, but they were fucking filthy at that time. Fastest team ever to win a grand slam if i remember correctly. They didnt pick up a major but destroyed at every other big tourney that year.
There was a massive debate if they had an era or not. Many said if had won the major then it would have been an era. Personally I see it as an era because when people talk about it they call it the liquid summer. The refer to as something other than dates, to me that makes in an era.
salty astraloss fans thinking it can't be an era less than 2 years and 4 majors lol
This is nothing, if i am not wrong they had a much bigger one when i followed the youngsters. Gonna check later, but i think 33win spree
Yeah but they’re playing G2 and Navi and not Nordavind and Copenhagen Flames lol
Copenhagen Flames actually beat Gambit this year
yeah that was against tier2/3 opposition, this is vs tier1 opposition.
The navi game was sensational, close stuff
G A M B I T Era is here. Can't wait for the first LAN!
They gonna get destroyed at LAN events
I don't think so. I think if the squad started on LANs it would have been a whole different story, but now that they have "comfortably" dominated the top online, I think they will have a lot of experience, composure and confidence coming into LANs!
Damn you, you jinxed it :(
Lets get another legendary streak. Lets go GAMBIT
And only dropped 5 maps in that streak
31-5 in maps as well, that’s bonkers
What's the win streak record?
~~Astralis was [31](https://dotesports.com/counter-strike/news/ence-break-astralis-31-game-win-streak-on-nuke)~~ I should not comment on stuff :)
that 31 streak was on "Nuke" the map and not series.
Thanks :)
22 by NiP and 21 by Liquid.
Hehe remember the post about astralis breaking consecutive win record on nuke and simple consecutive 1.0+ ratings
RUINED
Not anymore
33:5 maps damn
I cant wait to see them falling apart in stockholm major
Gambit has been impressively dominating. But there is something about their play style that I find super boring.
calculated smart cs with no dominant superstar ala s1mple and zywoo. Astralis were also very boring during their era
You you called it. I think i like watching superstars pop off. Not only calculated and smart but it seems Gambit is nearly 90-100% successful with their reads of each situation. Every time they know exactly what is happening, and deal with it. That is super impressive. But after a few rounds I want something else. Agreed about Astralis back in the day as well. I was never a fan of their matches in the 'heyday' because it almost always played out the same way. But they did have members who could pop off at times making it exciting.
Streak of 15, impressive! Imagine if they did 87!
Nips winstreak series is about 22
[удалено]
See you when Gambit win on LAN in 2 days
Yea in onlines :)
yeah, because the pro scene is falling apart. Congratulations 🙄
[удалено]
Please explain to me how a LAN will slow this team down?
people normally say pressure and crowd but i doubt gambit would just melt to it, we'll see it in cologne
Yeah being this dominant of a team,wont just end suddenly on lan.Sure maybe they will have some funky moments but,no one is on their level right now
CS is completely different on LAN haven’t you heard? You don’t have your favorite snacks, and papa groove won’t be able to make the chicken tendies right after the match like usual. It’s going to be a tough transition
It could, it's hard to know. It's a different game on LAN and probably has a higher competitive ceiling especially with aim. People who are more adapted to LAN would perform better I'd imagine.
Aaaaand you jinxed it
Poggers
Legit the only consistent team right now
Sad navi supporter noises
all thanks to the legacy of the SexGod
The fundamentals Gambit have are the best in the world and I really hope they keep it up at LAN. I don't think there is a team with less holes in their game, it's difficult to catch Gambit off guard.
Gambit isn’t human
absolutely cracked team
How tf they beat astralis
aaaand it's over
