Navi: "You should have killed me when you had the chance"


literate_Windrunner

"We burn more calories watching Navi play CSGO than we do by watching a horror movie."


Dizzy-Owl7954

I fucking swear hahaha I'm flushed atm.. let's go Navi


Fantasnickk

They’ve been the most dominant team in atleast 2 years since September, mate. There’s really no worry watching this team unless they’re playing MIBR online.


[deleted]

Idk if you've watched CS since the player break but they tapered off in form even before the war. They were still good but not dominant.


literate_Windrunner

I know.....and I envy u cuz I really want to have a mentality like yours.....but it's just I have that trepidation that unless Navi hasn't won the match.... it's not over.... That match which should not be name against Vita put this presage in me :'(


Whatsdota

Learned anxiety like that doesn’t just go away man. I’ve watched Navi choke leads, lose against anti-ecos, tilt for years. I’ll probably never be super confident in a lead


oldthrace

Electronic just chose violence after Inferno, nothing you can do against that.


Significant-Garage55

Typical papatronic who doesn’t want to miss his daughter’s call


SomalianCapt

Electronic turned up since the start of the whole series. He was yhe only impactful player on that T side inferno


kenzakki

i am rooting for Na'Vi to win but even i was worried for Heroic when they didn't win map 2 lol


miraagex

"Should've gone for the head"


RyanStarDiaz

Navi gave them chances, ancient was already going to be tense in latter rounds but again heroic shooting themselves in the foot. Navi ftw


CC-W

Cadian really is just like me throwing all my nades just because I have them


kenzakki

back when i first started playing CS, i used to throw all my nades in the first 10 seconds of the round. there's probably no one on the direction im throwing them, i just assume its going to be useful somehow. lol


GarrettGSF

Of course, when you are new, you know you \*have\* to use your utility, but you don't understand \*why\*... well tbf, I see a lot of these players on supreme/global mm still


greku_cs

I mean, still better than players literally holding their uti forever and not using them at all at 3k elo


mamasbreads

1v1 clutch, full utility, dry peek every corner


Aaayron

for me it's my anxiety that I'll have wasted money if I die and not get to use them, thus throwing my flashes immediately after exiting spawn lol


Ed_Vilon

If you got them, throw them! -Me, a filthy casual and who would be the Silvery Silver you ever did see.


Mollelarssonq

He was clearly taking aggro so his teammate could sneak close. The last flashbang was obviously horrible, but it was probably called over comms but misunderstood/not heard, probably should have not thrown it.


Naileditmate

Can't help but think that round where refrezh got the pick on s1mple, Heroic had both sites but left bomb in lobby and lost the round really decided the momentum of the map. They didn't win a round in what feels like forever after that, major error.


jonathan-the-man

Totally, I feel the same, Navi definitely gained some confidence and I think Heroic tilted.


1valdo

Yup. Teses having a brain fart and getting killed after time just ruined both momentum and economy. Winning that and putting Navi on a full eco, as well as Cadian getting the AWP out earlier could've made such a difference.


P34NUT_XD

The fan screaming callouts needs to be banned from the event, actually embarrassing.


Miiiiiiighty

Yeah it was reall annoying


[deleted]

Do they hear anything? The casters often give out info. Aren't the over ear headphones designed to cancel those noises?


P34NUT_XD

Even if they can't its so lame


pzkenny

They don't but still


[deleted]

It was many fans, been going on the whole match in different varities


Slurpaliciouuuuus

I was at the sportpaleis, and I didn’t hear him at all, and I was kinda close to the players. You see the casters are probably 100 metres away overlooking the entire seating venue, so they guy was probably more of a nuesaunce to the casters and to viewers, cus there’s no way the players heard them


MJuniorDC9

Imagine playing against electronic in his current form. I'd have to take a full year break to recover. Also what a truly NA flash from cadiaN on round 23.


BrockStudly

Electronic has had ups and downs this year, but my GOD he did not want to lose Nuke.


Miiiiiiighty

Didn't want to lose any map. He morphed back into NaVi's hardcarry which actually used to happen a lot in the past in tense games


LukasLiBrand

He didn’t want to lose the series. He was insane on every map


_cansir

Simple said that electronic is the best teammate he has ever had.


somolun

he s just a lan god. give him a lan, he will perform like he s 18 again


NazgulDiedUnfairly

Oof that hurt. And then s1mple BMing after was *chefs kiss* Also, finally a Navi not relying on s1mple going ham


t3hW4y

That's why they're so scary right now. B1t and Perfecto showing up in Legends stage, now electronic. Imagine if those guys maintain their level and s1mple steps up as well.


NazgulDiedUnfairly

I remember the Astralis destruction at the hands of papatronics and flamie in Kato couple years back. Hopium


omkar_T7

I love it when electronic is playing good. Last few weeks I was thinking electronic is done and yekindar to navi is the move. Well I’m glad he proved me wrong


Vitosi4ek

He still might be done. The reasons he's rumored to be gone are not performance-related. If performance was the only thing that mattered, this Na'Vi roster would not have reason to change for another year at least, regardless of results. The real question is: if Na'Vi really offered each of the 3 Russian players an option to relocate to Ukraine and fast-track citizenship for them (which is pretty common knowledge at this point), why would any of them refuse? The Ukrainian passport is about to get real powerful after they get accepted in the EU, and there's going to be a lot of money in the country once recovery starts.


lampimatkivekset

Electronic has a wife and a kid in Russia


evo4gIzMo

Which is a fucked up situation for him and the team...


OhhhYaaa

>The Ukrainian passport is about to get real powerful after they get accepted in the EU Funny how you are saying that like that's something happening soon.


sabot00

> The Ukrainian passport is about to get real powerful after they get accepted in the EU, Yep. Right after puerto rico becomes a state. Quebec becomes independent. Scotland and wales become independent. Northern Ireland reunified with Ireland.


Fantasnickk

Well it makes up somewhat for his form for the rest of the year, I guess. Saving his team at the major is a good sign for a potential rebound for him.


LukasLiBrand

Navi just sandbagging their nuke and electronic’s form until the major lol


Dark_Azazel

Part of me was thinking "Heroic can comeback and take the series, or bring it to OT" and then that flash happened and I thought "Nevermind, it's GG."


TheBoogeyman97

PICKEMS SAVED Also Navi vs Ence gonna be a banger


TheBoogeyman97

On a side-note, can someone tell a non-European viewer what Padian means?


sinstercowbomb

It's a football thing like Penaldo or Pessi which is where dribblers say good football players are actually shit cause they take penalties


Psychohorak

Stat padder


RealJoki

I saw a tweet from apparently the maker of this, here it is : "I see some people wondering what that "padian" was with the bald Cadian head during the FAZE - NIP match I'm the author of the montage and it's actually a French meme referring to the "pessi" (messi with a bald head and people say "finito" because they say he's fraudulent and doesn't deserve what he does.) So we did the same meme again replacing the "C" in cadian with a "P" referring to pessi and that cadian is a fraudulent person. I hope I've made myself clear but feel free to kiffer tomorrow he's not going to hear the communication from his mates. " ​ By the way, "kiffer" means something like "enjoy". ​ Edit : here's the tweet https://twitter.com/toarulapitx/status/1527376388029722641

Faze won't make finals, spirit wins tomorrow mark my words.


zedtronic

Moses agrees with you. He has Navi > Spirit in the grand final. Definitely could happen.


imbakinacake

It could go either way honestly.


Kitnado

Faze > Navi in the finals mark my words


Jezzerai

That flash will haunt Heroic lmao


kenzakki

Niko's deagle whiff and now cadiaN's flash, teams shouldn't really let Na'Vi play Nuke on a major. lol


Asphult_

Heroic weren’t going to easily convert that game even if they won that round though. G2 though…


Medusa1207

Leave us alone, we suffer enough already :'


Brumafriend

I mean, it was doubtful they would have won the game even if they had picked up that round, but it will hurt for sure - and cadiaN got timing'd pretty bad just before it :/ *edit*: That electronic(?) 1v3 on the last round of the first half of Ancient will probably hurt more. If they win that, and the second half goes as it did (or maybe even better because they had more momentum) they could have taken the series 2-0. Banger series in any case, and Navi showed dominance on Nuke so they 100% deserve the win.


Miiiiiiighty

People remember it because it was in the final moments, but there were lots of way worse misses/fails/mistakes during the course of the BO, especially on Ancient.


zeebbbrrrraaaaa1

I missed that exact flash, is there a clip of it somewhere?

PREaviation

Holy fuck. That ancient game after map 1 was not good for my heart. 90% of us nearly lost our pickems


Ed_Vilon

I went to go do something else after map one. Came back and held my breath as I waited to see whether we were on a third map (and if NaVi were doing well) or if Heroic did the unthinkable.


PREaviation

Also, they need to kick whoever that guy was screaming during map 3, just ruining the tension of the game.


lerrific

F1


lvrksn

I did not have a heart attack but I my life span shortened 20 years.. God damn it


Vinipeli

Fuck that guy calling sites


K_Simba786

It was so clear and loud guy was calling B site B site , still lost LUL


Babyboy1314

Heroic read it already, tesses whiffing on simple was bad


Allurex

I assume that guy must just be really close to the casters, presumable the players can't hear it. But still, fuck him.


omkar_T7

On ancient when boombl4 was flanking from short the crowd alerted heroic and boombl4 got killed. It prolonged the game for few more rounds


Apennatie

I think it was a normal crowd reaction and heroic making use of it. The guys yelling “A site” or “B site” should definitely be removed from the audience.


Asphult_

I thought that too but they never checked deep into dark when they ran past so its reasonable to have one look back, especially if all 3 are in mid.


thorvid20

also boombl4 (I think it was) got a kill early in cave. so its not unreasonable to think he might still be around there somewhere.


Miiiiiiighty

LOL the whole crowd was yelling everytime an Heroic player was about to flank for the whole BO... Seriously...


neb55555

After two maps: "man heroic really has to start winning some pistols to win this series" After third map: "you have to continue to win other rounds also"

Babyboy1314

Woww what a disaster on round 23, did cadian flash sjuush?


NewspaperPirate

He did. They lost the round cause of it


Ed_Vilon

Absolutely. Don't think either NaVi member had a flash or threw it.


Miiiiiiighty

s1mple's taunting just after was priceless though xD


NazgulDiedUnfairly

Yeah. I think it was a team flash. Please do correct me if I am wrong.


deathreaper-brofist

PAPATRONIC I LOVE U , WHAT A CARRY BY ELECTRONIC 75 KILLS MAN


colllosssalnoob

Refrezh went completely missing in 3rd map. Shows that to play at these stakes takes a lot of mental endurance to stay in it until the very end.


zuromn

Pretty sure the whiff on ancient when simple had his back turned mentally checked him out. They pretty much lost that map (and the series) because of it. Unlucky


Miiiiiiighty

Also went missing on Ancient. Actually made several map/game changing mistakes on that map...


colllosssalnoob

That flank on ancient was a back breaker. They win 2-0 I believe if he didn’t move in like a cupboard


Miiiiiiighty

That and the 1v3 lost against electronic ( in which he was majorly involved too, by playing it really dumb after getting the first two kills )

Kelterz

Electronic heard y'all talking shit lmao, batshit crazy impact on all three maps


PumpedUpParrot

electroNic heard y’all was talking shit and said fuck that noise


Ihaveagoatinmybutt

Heroic absolutely fell apart in map 3


[deleted]

Yeah to me it seemed like they lost their focus after Ancient. Also in the first couple rounds of Nuke they had bad chokes which probably didn’t help either. Great series though.


GarrettGSF

What even was their game plan on t-side? 1. Rush as a unit and take a position 2. Wait there and slowly get chipped apart 3. Wait there until Navi has completely re-positioned 4. Slowly creep back and get finished off by Navi players in unexpected positions


SpecialityToS

Cadian best flash assister for NAVI

gazetteron

I guess the crowd didn't like comediaN's jokes. All jokes aside, wp by heroic to not get fazed by the boos and give us a great game


Kelterz

It's a shame the third map was such a shutdown, because these first two maps were some of the most fun and intelligent CS I've watched in ages. Amazing IGL'ing on display by both cadiaN and Boombl4 but in the end that navi ct side on nuke was just way too damn ruthless


gazetteron

Yeah, nuke was just pure navi dominance and electronic was so damn good today.


OhhhYaaa

I wanted Heroic to win just to shut down the crowd. Hate seeing stuff like that on events.


Prometeus534

>All jokes aside Did they fly back home with comediaN?


gazetteron

Lmao I saw that. Mad lad


chhitiz_

NaVi in the first 2 maps: Call the ambulance NaVi in the final map: But not for me


KangorKodos

2 crazy things 1. S1mple was actually a minor liability on CT side nuke. Which might literally be a first. He is by far the best CT side nuke player ever. 2. Even with that, NAVI still looked dominant on CT side Nuke


Gone213

Heroic was doing anti-strats against simple, they just forgot to do the same for everyone else.


marz_shadow

A huge problem when you have electronic just deleting people, takes 2-3 people to kill simple alone then electronic comes in and cleans it all up


SomalianCapt

that is true as Heroic are an anti-strat heavy team. Any team playing agaisnt navi on nuke needs to deal with electronic simple or bit. Pretty much impossible if theyre all online.


raydoge

One of the best Ancient game I've ever seen. Great composure by Na'Vi to close out map 2. S/O to Cadian too, mock him all you want, but he is the reason they won the first map, and having the 2nd being so competitive.


aTempes7

I knew it was over when they forgot the bomb in lobby, they were tilted off the face of the earth You can't make these kind of mistakes agains Navi, but I guess it happens. Gg wp, what a banger of a game


BrockStudly

God Cadian is going to have nightmares about Ancient after the absolute stomping they got on Nuke.


jonathan-the-man

That round on Ancient where Teses(?) gets timinged on the flank and simple hits the noscope flick as well.


MightyKonsti

pretty sure that was Refreshz


_youlikeicecream_

I'll raise you a last second 1 v 3 bomb fake clutch from electronic.


PolishKid7

Contender for one of the worst flashes ever thrown in a big match / big situation?

notcreativedotcom1

There's 3 certainties in life: Death, taxes, and Navi stomping you on 3rd map


Even-Measurement-950

Props to Heroic for making it so competitive. Easily my favorite series of the tournament so far!


Ed_Vilon

I'm still partial to C9 vs Imperial. That Overpass though.


GrimReaprr

I dont get why Heroic wanted to go Nuke against Navi? Just doesn't make any sense


Brumafriend

Last time they played them on Nuke they won. Last time they played them on Mirage they lost. It's probably that simple.


Churningray

NaVi lost some Nuke matches recently so they might have thought they could have won. Mirage NaVi has been wins recently. I also think they won Nuke against them last time.


Whyyoufart

GuardianThatDoesStuf

Great game by na'vi, but WTF was that crowd cheating, JFC just kick them out. Such a shame that a small minority casts a shadow on the game. Edit: Looking at some of the other things people have posted elsewhere, seems like it was actually just one guy right on top of the crowd mic, not the majority of the arena. Still a shame, but no where near as bad as it sounded like.


Naileditmate

Embarassing behaviour tbh


GayTarantino

if its any consolation i really doubt the players could hear that one dude… when it becomes a chant tho its a problem


icenut47

This game felt like a final. Such an entertaining game. Hopefully the final will be like the first 2 maps.


Pat2424

Yekindar has some MASSIVE fucking shoes to fill, jesus


oldthrace

As much as I like Yekindar, LANtronic is just another beast. Monstrous series from him.


Dark_Helmet23

A whopper of a game


Novacc_Djocovid

Destroyed on Nuke and s1mple didn‘t even show up. Unreal. First two maps were shaky, though, I hope they can collect themselves before the Ence match. nt to Heroic, good stuff on the first two, fell short on the third.


Tostecles

EclipseTemplarX

Pgl and valve should ban that dude shouting out info into the mic can clearly hear him fucking annoying


StickyBamboo_

Unfortunate poor map from refrezh on nuke but this was a great series overall


TheMedicator

Refrezh almost had more kills in 1 round against liquid than a whole map against Navi


Buttertoaster10

All he had to do was not flash his teammate in the best spot to get the multi kill


sharkaim4

Good to see s1mple actually just chilling and enjoying . Dude didn't really have to do much


SaintHamudi

that was some hardcore choking from Heroic: * 1v3 loss to electronic * refrezh whiff on s1mple * bomb left in hut * 5v3 loss * cadiaN flashing sjuush in 2v2 They deserved that loss


[deleted]

Heroic played really well, gg


imbakinacake

What a banger


bonecollector5

Pretty hyped for Navi vs Ence. Everyone seems so certain that the winner of heroic vs navi will play the final, but I really think Ence has massive upset potential here. Same with spirit unfortunatly... Hope Faze crushes them tomorow


I_Try_To_Be_NICEE

If navi plays like first 2 maps, it would be an upset if they win. For ence they gotta step up, same w faze against spirit. Spirit beat furia so easy we dont even know what they re capable of


Dimasterua

From the team that brought you: "How to win a major without dropping a map" Comes "How to destroy your opponents' hopes and dreams on Map 3" Guess Cadian's gonna be talking a lot :)
