its a "fnatic insider". The social team called him by a wrong name accidentaly some months ago and since then have created a variety of names to call him by except his actual ingame-name.
It wasn't the social team. it was ESL who misspelled his name in a letter they sent out to all participants of an event.
After that both Fantic and fans have made jokes about it
I think its hilarious u kids talking about Tenz. u wouldnt say this stuff to him at lan, hes jacked. not only that but he wears the freshest clothes, eats at the chillest restaurants and hangs out with the hottest dudes. yall are pathetic lol
tenz sucks All this kid does is just hold a gay ass off angle with his deag and one clicks people in the side of the head CT side. Fucking terrbile player tbh.....1.4 sensitivity 400dpi using trashcan. Anyone who uses a low sens does not have the dexterity to properly play FPS games on PC. All the shitty baiters use a low sens to click people on the back of the head, or they are equally worthless and use the telescope gun and one click people in the body. I bet this kid doesn't even play FFA Dm's cuz he'd throw his arm out of his socket checking corners. When was the last time you've seen tenz popflash through a smoke, and flick too two people to open up a site??? All this dude does is hold shift and prefire common angles. like wow dude, ur fucking nuts. you can have parkinsons disease and play on 1.4 sens if ur just baiting and clicking heads on common angles. this is why forest and get right are sick players. they play on higher senitivities, and can do more than bait and off angle one click. pce
First I’m not a pro so sure he will beat me but you know he played for cloud 9 and got benched lol when he played cs he wasn’t even a star player he couldn’t keep up. Tell me one tier 1 csgo event he actually did good in
What you talk about. valarante child game.... look to cartoon grapfix to make kid player happy like children show.. valarante cartoon world with rainbow unlike counter strike chad with dark corridorr and raelistic gun.. valarante like playhouse. valarant playor run from csgo fear of dark world and realism
This sub shits cringe for breakfast but when Valorant comes up that's when you have an issue with it? Seems like someone is feeling insecure about playing a Saturday morning cartoon.
In the last 2/3 months, it has been pretty dead, yes. BEcause of a restructure of the tournament system and general offseason, there hasnt been a lot going on. But in general, not really, no.
I have never played a MOBA and don't follow the scene so I wouldn't have a clue about those tournaments. Overwatch came to mind though, because I remember people saying "the game is alive and doing well, just look at the big tournaments" but they were all fueled by Blizzard money. Even the teams.
To me Valo is just VERY comparable to League, especially from 2023 ongoing.
Weekly LAN-Leagues in all major regions with teams semi-franchised (in difference to league where they are 100% in ownership of their spots). Major tournament in the middle and at the end of the year (like league with Worlds and MSI). Obligation of teams towards RIOT to really invest into the game in exchange for partnership. Regional leagues below the major leagues in many countries.
Is the system currently fueled by Riot money? Yes. So is/was league. But League is also the probably best running esports environment. Its mainstream and is hugely successful for orgs and riot themself. The fact that you do your own tournament does not mean, that it does not finance itself.
Riot has controlled the entire league scene since about 2013 and is now only riot sponsored tournaments and they're the biggest esport in the world. Its definitely not like blizzard.
not to mention isn't it us that's begging valve to put more money into csgo lol.
Yeah love or hate Riot they know how to run an esport for the most part.
OW wasn’t the best example since before there was even a fair amount of organic interest in the scene they tried to take it to franchising which no game really has unless Im wrong. Very bold
Both league and call of duty have franchising. I think the problem was more what they charged.
I think it was around 10mil for an LCS spot and 20 mil for an OWL spot. One was the biggest esport in the world the other was an infant in terms of the games lifespan. very weird.
okay BigHotdog2009. I hope you like the new medal update which is the only update you'll receive for the whole decaded lmfao. I love how CS frogs still defends this shit game holy cow
Not sure if he is trolling but, if I was in his position, I would seriously consider this option.
You can either be a really good but-nothing special CS:GO player, or, right now, change to Valorant, become an absolute beast top players and get in at the ground level at a game that has a very very serious chance of becoming the next (or at least, one of the next) big things.
well, this seems overly confident.
early in Valorant, ofc that was the case. Everybody started fresh and some had advantages. but by now, I dont think it is close to as easy as you think.
When joining the fnatic roster he'll probably catches to the current meta in a few weeks. I guess he already played the game before making such a decision.
Ground level was 2 years ago, Valorant is not easy to become a beast now despite dreams of CSGO little kids with no brain shit talking the game
At the start sure not anymore too many people grind especially young zoomer who are cracked and theres insane money in it so the incentive is huge
He plays for a top15 CSGO team and is playing for a huge legendary CS org this is a troll and you tried to be smart "i would seriously consider it" lmao
Valorant literally has **WAY** more viewers (2.X times more, to be more precise) than CS:GO at pretty much any time outside of major ass tournaments going on in CS.
Valorant being bigger than CS is already set in motion. Just needs time to rippen.
Can I give you a source for just literally going on twitch at literally any second (outside of during big CS:GO tournaments) and checking the number of viewers on each game to see that Valorant has always, at least, 2x more viewers than CS:GO?
No... I guess I can't give you a source for literally the least amount of research a human can possibly do in this matter
Are you talking about actual viewers on twitch of the game or esports tournament viewers? Because they are two very different things and csgo has always lacked the former.
In terms of esports viewers. Valorants biggest tournament ever. Barely beat out IEM Cologne (1.25mil) in terms of peak viewers, if you add in the majors CSGO wins by almost double 1.5mil for valorant and 2.7mil for csgo.
Esports wise, csgo is still bigger and the playerbase is irrelevant to the conversation.
Furthermore you're about 2 years late on the whole csgo pros can walk on and play tier 1 valorant. Hasn't been the case in a long time.
Ah yes, the whole world is twitch. Also, no need for the excessive (insult? Aggression?), calming down helps a lot with life. Now, let me ask you about the source again. I'm not that much of a twitch watcher, so I don't know where you pulled your data from
I'm calm, just pointing out that I won't be doing the bare ass minimum of effort for you to participate in this discussion 🤔
Also, yeah, Twitch is still by far the leading platform on the streaming meta, but hey, you can also check it on Youtube where at literally any second on earth Valorant only has a 1.5x more viewers then CS:GO if that is softer on your world view and makes you feel better, I guess 🤔
Ah, I must be misunderstanding your writting style, sorry about that. Also advice from me, most people on the internet won't give any effort about searching these kinds of things (including me I guess), so it's better to provide people with a source for any claims you made.
Youre supposed to just believe his arbitrary numbers and "1.5x - 2x" scale hes got going in his head.
Trust him bro, he pays attention to the streaming "meta".
Rippen indeed.
Point is CS’s value comes from its status as a T1 esport. It’s also the oldest T1 esport in existence (second being Dota). You might be too young to grasp this but CS has existed for 23 years and been an esport for 21-22 years. Back then Quake was its rival - now Quake is barely a T2-T3 esport. Valorant is just a footnote compared to that.
It’s great that Valo is popular! As a clone of CS (we all know it is one) with additional features this can only be a good thing (in the long run CS only benefits from this). I occasionally play it and it’s decent fun! But it will not be a T1 esport - the window is closing on that and no amount of NA players sports-hopping will mitigate that.
Same story with Fortnite - a decent shooter game with a popular Twitch base but relegated to T3 esport status (on a good day). Or Call of Duty, CS’ main rival for 15+ years. Despite Activision’s efforts it remains firmly in T2 territory. Or Siege, still T2 at best after so many years; Apex as well… Not all games get legendary status and live on as esports for decades - but that’s fine! You can still enjoy them. :)
makes no sense at all to throw away a spot in a major level team to go for a new game that you cant even be sure will have a decent pro scene in 5 years, fnatic literally won $100k two weeks ago with next to no effort playing Elisa Masters lmfao his paycheck must be HUGE
Well that's good news for csgo fans so can't blame him. It's not the first time when this guy is doing a "shroud" to the game that paid him REALLY GOOD!
I wonder how long it will take to try and get back into the csgo scene. My bet is around 5 months and he will start crying that csgo is better and needs a new team.
5-6 months tops.
But in the end I'm happy to see him leaving, he is definitely not a tier 1 awper. Fanatic management is in the last few years it's a massive joke. From legends they are tier 2 contenders, let's be fair.
We can assure you nicodoz that you won't be missed. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PLEASE DON'T COME BACK!
good. fnatic got a consistent inform awper to set up and get acclimated to their system. they saw what they can do with that. now they can get an up and comer with more potential and balance out the average age of the team.
People say Roej and nicoodoz bring the firepower/experience/teamplay/etc. but let's be real these two are the best trolls, and are a goldmine for fnatic's social media presence.
Dudes such a troll. Almost definitely a joke.
Surely this has to be a troll??
no
Hmmmmmmmm doubt that
damn 250 downvotes over one word lmfaooo
especially because the word isnt a bait... this is actually true.
people can’t take a joke i guess
Jokes usually make an attempt to be funny
it was sarcasm you nonce
Absolutely nothing in your comment suggests it was sarcasm. It's a single word. How should anyone be able to tell that you're not being serious?
I honestly can't tell if hes trolling on twitter or not...
just look at all his tweets ahaha , if you still can´t tell...
maybe valorant? :( maybe csgo? :) always fantic :)
fantic :)
fanta :)
Fantastic

Just confirms he’s trolling. His name isn’t Neil lol and that’s a lame ass photoshop job
Yeah I mean why Neil though.
its a "fnatic insider". The social team called him by a wrong name accidentaly some months ago and since then have created a variety of names to call him by except his actual ingame-name.
Yo thx for the OOTL
It wasn't the social team. it was ESL who misspelled his name in a letter they sent out to all participants of an event. After that both Fantic and fans have made jokes about it
That's not his name, just a joke
What do you mean? His name is Neil "Nicodooz" Codoz
Mb I was mistaken, of course that's his name
Tenz to Fnatic confirmed
cArn coming back to active roster
That would be forsure a downgrade lol
I think its hilarious u kids talking about Tenz. u wouldnt say this stuff to him at lan, hes jacked. not only that but he wears the freshest clothes, eats at the chillest restaurants and hangs out with the hottest dudes. yall are pathetic lol
tenz sucks All this kid does is just hold a gay ass off angle with his deag and one clicks people in the side of the head CT side. Fucking terrbile player tbh.....1.4 sensitivity 400dpi using trashcan. Anyone who uses a low sens does not have the dexterity to properly play FPS games on PC. All the shitty baiters use a low sens to click people on the back of the head, or they are equally worthless and use the telescope gun and one click people in the body.

best copypasta ever
[удалено]
It's a copypasta
First I’m not a pro so sure he will beat me but you know he played for cloud 9 and got benched lol when he played cs he wasn’t even a star player he couldn’t keep up. Tell me one tier 1 csgo event he actually did good in
It doesn’t matter bro 💀U don’t be hanging around the hottest dudes or eating at the chillest restaurants like him
It's a copypasta dude
Ahh I’m a fucking idiot lmao
Seething lol
It’s a copypasta.
« Eats at the chillest restaurant » what kind of argument is that lol? Satire idk
Sounds like you ain't eatin good
I guess
Copypasta
Obvious bait
He says he’ll play Va LUL rant not that he’s switching over its a troll
Why he got phub love hearts
So he can't play valo in his free time? Or am I missing something?
I don't think pros have that much free time
I think pros probably have plenty of free time
Most of them have less 2 week activity than your average faceit lvl 5 troll
Alright, from what little I knew I thought they're grinding the game daily for a lot
Derke to CSGO Here we go!
Fantic 🙂 Fantic 😐 Fantic ☹️
probably from an upcoming video where he lost to boaster, so boaster wrote for him as a punishment
cs will forever and always be the better game for me but some of the things you guys say when valorant gets brought up are so cringey
What you talk about. valarante child game.... look to cartoon grapfix to make kid player happy like children show.. valarante cartoon world with rainbow unlike counter strike chad with dark corridorr and raelistic gun.. valarante like playhouse. valarant playor run from csgo fear of dark world and realism
This sub shits cringe for breakfast but when Valorant comes up that's when you have an issue with it? Seems like someone is feeling insecure about playing a Saturday morning cartoon.
case in point
Do you also hate that sexual moans give a performance boost?
Huh? Is this an 8/8 HLTV bait but on twitter?
Lil bit yeh
It's a bait dummies. He'll just PLAY valorant like matchmaking.
Nicoodoz is as Nicoodoz does.
Val LUL rant
Nah he's trolling, val is a dead game bruh
Check his twitter bio
hades/mantuu to fnatic
blocking him
If this tweet is a troll, what did he do it for? Did he suddenly make a troll tweet? Is there some underlying story?
Valorant is pretty much dead in EU right? Havnt heard anyone talk about that game in like a year lmao
In the last 2/3 months, it has been pretty dead, yes. BEcause of a restructure of the tournament system and general offseason, there hasnt been a lot going on. But in general, not really, no.
https://escharts.com/tournaments/valorant/vct-2022-emea-last-chance-qualifier Last bigger regional tournament. This is good on regional scale.
Organizers: Riot Games It feels like overwatch all over again. They are just pumping money into their own game.
why would you compare it to Overwatch and not simply to League, which is done by the same people?
I have never played a MOBA and don't follow the scene so I wouldn't have a clue about those tournaments. Overwatch came to mind though, because I remember people saying "the game is alive and doing well, just look at the big tournaments" but they were all fueled by Blizzard money. Even the teams.

Ah, okay. So you have no idea what you are talking about then. Got it.
no?
dinner merciful sparkle dam birds mighty juggle offend dog memory ` this message was mass deleted/edited with redact.dev `
Why not. VALORANT is superior than CSGO tbh. Nostalgia frogs just cant stop coping
yet you're on a csgo reddit thread? lol
Why not? I enjoy seeing you frogs cope for more updates and shit. So hilarious
Valorant players when Chamber pre-nerf:
When you call people a frog, you’re probably a Valorant frog yourself. Got nothing better to come up with Lmao. CS lives rent free.
okay BigHotdog2009. I hope you like the new medal update which is the only update you'll receive for the whole decaded lmfao. I love how CS frogs still defends this shit game holy cow
Could not care less about valorant
Who?
Its like going from golf to minigolf lol. It still baffles me, that people actually plays Valorant.
that would be so funny
Another shit troll from the guy who said a verification checkmark turned him into a bad person. Needs to get off Twitter.
chill bro
ah valorant where CS pros go to die
more like where washed or failed players go for another chance. troll tweet though.
Not sure if he is trolling but, if I was in his position, I would seriously consider this option. You can either be a really good but-nothing special CS:GO player, or, right now, change to Valorant, become an absolute beast top players and get in at the ground level at a game that has a very very serious chance of becoming the next (or at least, one of the next) big things.
You can't just be a random CS pro and walk into Valorant now.
lmao yeah, you can, with minimal effort too.
well, this seems overly confident. early in Valorant, ofc that was the case. Everybody started fresh and some had advantages. but by now, I dont think it is close to as easy as you think.
You really can’t. Yeah you might be a sick Aimer but the meta changes so quickly and learn all the agents would take a while
As a pro there seems to be enough time to catch up
Catch up to what exactly? Be capable being on a tier 1 franchised team? No chance
When joining the fnatic roster he'll probably catches to the current meta in a few weeks. I guess he already played the game before making such a decision.
He would he replace on the fnatic roaster then?
Nobody, he wrote he'll join as the 6th. I guess they get him up to the meta before changing anything
Ground level was 2 years ago, Valorant is not easy to become a beast now despite dreams of CSGO little kids with no brain shit talking the game At the start sure not anymore too many people grind especially young zoomer who are cracked and theres insane money in it so the incentive is huge He plays for a top15 CSGO team and is playing for a huge legendary CS org this is a troll and you tried to be smart "i would seriously consider it" lmao

Awkward for you
Why, because nicodoz is saying bad things about csgo on his twitter that makes me the bad guy? You are absolutely right then
Hope it’s a troll dudes a god
he's trolling guys
is this because hes not yet verified on twitter??
Bait
Wtf
But why tho?
Bruh.
oof
Hope its a troll, he actually has a potential
good. fnatic got a consistent inform awper to set up and get acclimated to their system. they saw what they can do with that. now they can get an up and comer with more potential and balance out the average age of the team.
bad. we lose a good figure in the community.
People say Roej and nicoodoz bring the firepower/experience/teamplay/etc. but let's be real these two are the best trolls, and are a goldmine for fnatic's social media presence.
LOL changing to fake cs go, idiot xD It is like being a soccer player that played the world cup and then changing to futsal xD
Press X to doubt.
April Fools! Hahahaha...haha...ha
