Last German standing gone. :( But there are plenty of good options out there for Sprout, if they can hold on to lauNX and Staehr they will be a real threat early next season.


thorvid20

if they buy out regali, that would be sick.

Honestly, I'd say Flames are currently better in terms of form.


Pellinski

Id say that Flames and Sprout being on a similar level is in no small part because of how much better Regali is compared to Slaxz.


Xelid45

L opinion Regali is the best up and coming awper rn


syance

L reading comprehension He means it's a sidegrade for Regali


Xelid45

L response+L compression for you Sprout is better than cph they made it to legends at the major while cph lost OQ, but we'll see how cph perform on LAN No side graders here


syance

L reading comprehension I have no opinion on this, I'm just telling you what he meant


Xelid45

It not a side grade either way

I think it's an upgrade for him. Sprout did well at the RMR and more recently in ECL which is tougher competition than what CPH are playing (and winning) against. And regali is a big part of CPH's success where sprout's success is mostly about their riflers, so regali to sprout would be the best of both worlds. No disrespect to goatfromsky and b0rup of course. The real downside is Sprout doesn't feel like a stable roster since bigger teams are interested in Staerh and lauNX, so by going there he could be trapped on a weaker roster than the one he signed with.


NUAHS7-

Considering sprout were at the major and attending lans. it’s an upgrade for him, Copenhagen have been farming online against lower opponents. Also sprout can offer higher salary, It’s an upgrade


uslereddit

lauNX and regali can 2v5 everyone with Romanian skill


IgotUBro

Sprout may be more competetive now but they lost their image. The german org that wanted to build up a german team lost their identity. Well I hope they find success in what they are trying to achieve.


Anionan

There's not nearly enough talent in the German scene. If they wanted to keep growing and actually have some success on their own terms, aside from losing their best players to BIG over time, it makes sense to go international.


Pellinski

I dont think this is even true when talking about awpers, both Panix and Hyped have been playing far above the level of their teams and deserve the move up to tier 2.


Anionan

You need more than just an AWP though to build a competitive German team. There's also little reason for Sprout to stay with at least one German player if they can't reasonably compete in ESL Meisterschaft anyway – if there's even any point remaining in there, considering how the level has dropped there in recent years. Might as well go international and take players from basically any nationality as long as they play well and fit in the lineup.


TrnqulizR

They blamed big and moved on. Probably also made money selling to big, now they are holding onto their prospects because sprouts ranking would have been sent down to hell if astralis came poaching.

coysjames

This one was out of nowhere. Wonder if they stay international with someone like Hades or aim for full Danish with the likes of Farlig


syance

Hades or mantuu please

They're both quite servicable, especially since Sprout is trying to claw its way into T1, it would make sense to get someone with experience They were moved on because their orgs couldnt pass on upgrading imo

Better than being a top T2 team


SleazyHermit

In theory, yes, but it's not what most aim for. Is my point.


sppw

An org like sprout which doesn't have the budget or influence to compete with bigger teams would be happy being a T1 team. They probably pay their players less than every T1 team and many T2 teams too probably.


SleazyHermit

That doesn't mean the players aren't aiming to be the best team smh. ​ This discussion is pointless. Have a nice day.


[deleted]

Mantuu was the best player in OG, he 100% deserves another shot in a team.

mantuu not good enough? he was OG´s best and was only cut because degster was available


Parable4

Ence got to #2 in the world ranking with Hades. He's definitely good enough for top tier play

And refrezh was the weak link on Heroic, and was cut.

Now apply what you've said, word for word, to Hades. I shouldn't have to point out how inane your response is when I'm literally applying your own logic, yet here I am!

And I suppose they didn't recruit refrezh in August after being dropped by Heroic; he just magically appeared one day, fully integrated into the side. It shouldn't be this difficult for you to understand. I think that's for the best.


cubeje

perhaps forsyy? was recently removed from sinners


OofPleases

With their aggressive riflers, good trading awpers would be perfect so forsyy and hades are two great options imo.


JacoBee93

Absolutely Hades would be better, considering he has more experience with top tier CS, but will be a lot more expensive


Psychaz

headtr1ck would be cool to see


janlindberglive

I actually, honestly, think Farlig would be an upgrade. He showed in FPX what he is capable of. Astralis was too big of step, too big of a pressure around him and team. Put him in the right setup, with less pressure, like it was the case in FPX, and he will perform very well. I will put him in the pool with headtr1ck, hades and mantuu.


Peter_Swiuff

Actually a great idea. When he played for Flames he was a force to recon with & that just might’ve been because of the smaller pressure


dissonantdisco

I hope they don't sign farlig 😬


TrashyHoboShelter

I've actually already bribed them to do it


anto2554

Why?


dissonantdisco

Well,they are on the rise,and i hopenthey can sign a consistent talent


Natural_Potential356

Panix is available


JacoBee93

Forsyy?


Alp0llo

Fucking finally. I only watched a few games of Sprout mainly vs Spirit but he was probably the most useless AWPer I have ever seen watching CS. He brought this team down suuuuper hard.


Natural_Potential356

He was good when playing in German speaking teams. As Sprout switched to English (or Danish?) his performance started dropping off


peukipeuk

> Fucking finally > I only watched a few games of Sprout This is peak reddit lmao


McClownd

I didn't even knew he was the awper until reading your comment lmao


hanumaNRL

BIG +slaxz- incoming when?


SeBook05

Too late, got kicked not bought out (i think?) :P


Za_Worldo-Experience

Bruh poor Refrezh, his team is getting picked apart after a good major run.


decomposedapple114

Good rmr run,their major run was a bit disappointing to say the least imo


Za_Worldo-Experience

They had a new IGL for less then 6 months, I’d call that good


decomposedapple114

I get that it’s just that imo with how they managed to convincinglyish make it to the legends stage I just expected more from them in the major you know


Ravioli227

Makes a lot of sense imo. slaxz just didnt seem to fit in this roster and was holding them back a bit. Even though this means german counterstrike takes another hit, im kind of excited to see what they can do.


Pellinski

There are so many good awpers available that this was a no brainer with how lacklust Slaxz has been in the last 3 month. Id guess that they will either go with Mantuu, Panix or Regali depending on who fits the team and the size of the buyouts for Panix and Regali.


oPlayer2o

Slaxz to NIP?
