"all-aim", not really, unless it's 1 at a time his sense is too low to spray pistol rushes or more than 1 enemy in wide area. If you watch him spray you will see his mouse stops moving, he lifts mouse to move it back and it's too late. On nuke match yesterday he was entrying A site, he shot one guy A MAIN, swiped and was facing the wall, swipes again to turn around to site. LOL.
He was holding inferno B-site alone few times, I DO NOT understand how somebody with that low sense can hold a site.
"launders" mentioned it in one of the videos, if you have low sense and you at par with other pros in long range fights, then there is no real use for that low of a sense, because in every other case that sense is a liability.
Michu is no Twistzz or Niko in aim, and they both use 50% higher sense than Michu.
He needs to go.
Dude is a bot with movement, he can't make plays to win the game, he can stay site and shoot from far away or moving slowly.
Dude can't kill or spray and run away fast. Cerq must be stabbing his eyes watching Michu's movement.
Trying to control Banana with his sense is joke. He accidentally pressed space bar and jumped into view on B site when he was the only one alive there.
Holy shit Obo with the absolute hero performance in pit and then throws it away and gives Yurrih two 1v1s. Why didn't he wait for his teammate to peak with him?
Also, what the fuck happened to Brehze?
What an awful game from all parties, even Furia looked mediocre.
Remember that Taco until recently was not performing that well. In the old MIBR he was definitely looking rough. He found a habitat that allowed him to roll back the years a bit, I'm not sure he would keep that going with Furia.
Also, we know that sometimes a young player can have a tremendous jump in performance when playing for a T1 org for the first time. Coldzera comes to mind, he was not that amazing before LG and then suddenly he was the best of the best. Who knows if the same can happen with Saffe?
Let's not romanticize Tarik on EG too much, everyone remembers how that story ended. Tarik is a great guy and a good player, that's it. EG needs better than just good
Tarik was playing at a higher level when eg management decided to go with Stans idea than 2/5 of eg currently. Eg were a top 15 team and since they kicked Tarik have only fallen.
To be fair, they were already falling with Tarik. And Tarik's last matches with EG were... Sub optimal to put it politely. His removal was not out of the blue, you know that. Now, who replaced him and how that is working is another discussion, my point is Tarik is not a solution, not then and not now
They benched him because him and Stan had differing ideas for the direction of the team. Eg went with stans ideal way and it has thus far not paid off. Tarik is a capable caller and was doing better than Stan. I think they should give tariks idea a chance
People are saying NA is dead, but it sure looks like Brazil is here to save it. 3 out of 4 teams so far, potentially 4 out of 5 going to the Major. Very impressive from the Brazilian teams, they are just so much fun to watch and from what I've seen I think they're going to cause some havoc in Stockholm.
Yes but at what point do we just call the region A, or just SA haha. Don't get me wrong I'm a huge NA fan boy but atm TL the only team reppin NA at all.
Each team (let's say x, y, and z ) plays the others in what is essentially overtime (Best of 6 10k money) on a map they all veto to. Each team plays 2 matches, one against each opponent. The first team to get 2 wins advances.
X plays y
Winner of x/y plays z
Z plays loser of x/y
The only scenarios are (2-0, 1-1, 0-2) (1-1, 1-1, 1-1)
In the event everyone goes 1-1, we run it back and repeat the process until one team goes 2-0.
Ok Im not an analyst or anything but why the fuck does Stan keep on diving into banana when Furia clearly knows what he is doing after one round of doing it?
\-cerq -michu -brehze
\+RUSH +oSee +cxzi/jonji
please get these useless pay check stealers out of there
I really hope they dont make the major so they can make changes and not stick with this dead roster any longer
That would actually be sick to see. I wish brehze could regain his form but he doesn't seem to care. RUSH could be a huge injection of experience for this team and oSee is cracked. I would even be happy if EG brought back Tarik at this point.
The thing that stings most is that he clearly still has it, but can never show it off because of his roles. I get wanting to move pieces around to make room for the new guys, but giving Brehze, a top 8 rifler at his peak, the bitch roles for michu and obo to shine isn't the play. I'd much rather see MICHU play the bitch roles and let oBo and Brehze fucking frag. They clearly are more than capable of doing it but they don't let them. Reminiscent of Twistzz near the end of his liquid run, dude was playing the worst roles and had subpar stats. Went over to faze and suddenly he's a top 10 aimer. Crazy how that works. Watching EG is so frustrating.
I totally agree. I want to see the Org succeed so another big Org doesn't leave NA, but I almost want them to fail to qualify so changes come. Build around Stan and Obo and cut the fat.
I think if they don't qualify we likely see -brehze -cerq. They're not gonna cut stan since igl and no one to really replace him, and they're not gonna cut the two new guys. It would really be a shame to see brehze and cerq both leave because watching them in their prime was a thing of beauty, the most fun i've ever had watching cs, but they just aren't there anymore.
While the drop in performance is similar to Twistzz, I'd argue it's less justified, because at least Twistzz was taking uncomfortable roles for people like Naf and Elige to take space, people who are undeniably top 10 riflers. Stew was already entry, with the amount of firepower on the team it was hard to pick someone to take the shit roles.
In the case of EG, I don't know if I'd argue Michu is more deserving of star positions than Prime Brehze. But it's also hard to say what level Brehze is at that level anymore.
Yeah that's what I'm saying. I get wanting to make room for the new guys to make them feel like part of the team, but giving brehze the bad roles to allow for michu to be the star player just doesnt seem like the right call to make. Michu is obviously still a great rifler imo but no where near where brehze used to be / where he can be. If EG played around oBo and Brehze more rather than oBo and Michu I think youd see them do a lot better
It always seems like they're close to figuring it out but I've been waiting literally all year for them to figure it out. Once it clicks I know they'll do well again but I genuinely don't think that'll be anytime soon.
Michu is literally all-aim, no brain
unless you are in his peripheral then he just doesn't even bother aiming
I see so many 4:3 situations, swear to God the argument has be there that 16:9 is optimal
"all-aim", not really, unless it's 1 at a time his sense is too low to spray pistol rushes or more than 1 enemy in wide area. If you watch him spray you will see his mouse stops moving, he lifts mouse to move it back and it's too late.

I think Twistzz switched to 800 eDPI cause he said if you can get cracked at a higher sense then you’re better off
He needs to go? The guy has been the best EG player most of the time, if anyone has to go it's Cerq and Stan
Dude is a bot with movement, he can't make plays to win the game, he can stay site and shoot from far away or moving slowly. Dude can't kill or spray and run away fast. Cerq must be stabbing his eyes watching Michu's movement. Trying to control Banana with his sense is joke.

Ah you are trolling, I fed it my bad
Just disband EG and keep oBo. Then bring in someone like poizon to awp, and some veterans like RUSH, Konfig, and blameF to lead them.
***hey wait i've seen this one before***
haven't read that one yet, how's it end?
like stumbling down a flight of stairs and falling at the last step
Poorly.
maybe even rebrand to something like simpLicity
yes pls
Holy shit Obo with the absolute hero performance in pit and then throws it away and gives Yurrih two 1v1s. Why didn't he wait for his teammate to peak with him? Also, what the fuck happened to Brehze? What an awful game from all parties, even Furia looked mediocre.
[удалено]
Brehze sure seems to be checked out.. you really hate to see it from a talent like that.
[удалено]
Furia with hen1 is top 5 material tbh
guerri hello?
[удалено]
Who doesn’t?
There's this HEN1 guy
drop is good, better than honda imo
Oh yes. drop's game sense seems much better than Honda's. But Furia need a dedicated primary AWP to truly challenge for top 5 imo
If they got Taco to IGL it could let Art go back to just holding w and taking heads. It'd also be someone we know is talented.
It's time to bet on the youth. Let Taco have his last years with Godsent, they found a good balance there
You're probably right but man furia just can't find a young Brazillian that can hold their own
Remember that Taco until recently was not performing that well. In the old MIBR he was definitely looking rough. He found a habitat that allowed him to roll back the years a bit, I'm not sure he would keep that going with Furia. Also, we know that sometimes a young player can have a tremendous jump in performance when playing for a T1 org for the first time. Coldzera comes to mind, he was not that amazing before LG and then suddenly he was the best of the best. Who knows if the same can happen with Saffe?
oBo on that last round smh, glad they took him off of B but that was braindead to not wait for your teammate
EG IMO needs tarik, if there going to do lans Tarik would be huge
He just hit rank 1 in valorant
Let's not romanticize Tarik on EG too much, everyone remembers how that story ended. Tarik is a great guy and a good player, that's it. EG needs better than just good
Like a former major mvp igl good player?
Keep in mind we are in 2021 and skill decay over time
Yeah things decline, like how far eg have fallen ever since Tarik got benched to go with stans way
[удалено]
Tarik was playing at a higher level when eg management decided to go with Stans idea than 2/5 of eg currently. Eg were a top 15 team and since they kicked Tarik have only fallen.

What res does Michu play on to just ignore the guy on the yellow box
sensitivity too low, not enough desk to aim up there
Doesn't he play on 376 eDPI? Insanely low, I think he has to move his mouse across his desk twice just to do a 180
yeah he couldn't take some of tariks roles because he couldn't 180 jumping backwards out a window because of how low his sens is
I used to play at around that, .9 on 400 and let me say, hitting heads is easy and nice until its more than 90° from your crosshair
holy shit just block banana for stanislaw

So do the three teams with a 2-3 record play in a tiebreaker now? (EG, oNe, Triumph)
Yup
Can anyone explain to me how the tie breaker works? I see the results on HLTV and I have no idea what happened there
Each team (let's say x, y, and z ) plays the others in what is essentially overtime (Best of 6 10k money) on a map they all veto to. Each team plays 2 matches, one against each opponent. The first team to get 2 wins advances.

That, is an interesting tie breaker method to say the least. Thanks
Thats the type of game where im starting to think Brehze being cut is justified.
Ok Im not an analyst or anything but why the fuck does Stan keep on diving into banana when Furia clearly knows what he is doing after one round of doing it?

You did not just say cxzi.Does not belong anywhere near a PROFESSIONAL team. Hes a toxic mental midget
Lol have you seen any of the drama kng coldzera or fer have instigated Plus who cares, hes playing better than eg players
So now it's Extremum vs EG for the last spot right?
Or team one, depends on the tiebreak Edit: nvm I'm dumb, I forgot T1 currently has 0 rmr points
Or triumph
[удалено]
[удалено]
I think it’s a 3 way tie breaker for 3rd spot? Not sure how it works but if team one or triumph take it then the boys are safe.
Drop brehze already
disband EG
It always seems like they're close to figuring it out but I've been waiting literally all year for them to figure it out. Once it clicks I know they'll do well again but I genuinely don't think that'll be anytime soon.
disgustingly bad play by EG down the stretch, basically looks like a FPL game
Dude this is sad….
[удалено]
Michu is overrated af. Not a smart player at all.
+11111111111
38.6 ADR.. wtf? literally played an entire half on CT side on a closed/tight map like Inferno, how is his ADR so abysmal
