suikaI just don't understand how this is even a thing...
if mid open teams were coordinated enough to realize what was going on in situations like this, and smart enough to not let their leader pull stuff like that, they wouldn't be mid open in the first place
saamRofl fuck iso he just did this without talking to anyone on his team
8:16 PM - Space Ghost's Coffee: this is the first time i am hearing about this
8:16 PM - Space Ghost's Coffee: that is really fucking lame
8:16 PM - saam iOi: I would talk to him and tell him you don't wanna be a part of that shit
8:17 PM - Space Ghost's Coffee: i had no idea that he did that at all
8:17 PM - Space Ghost's Coffee: yeah, will do
sgc is a really nice guy, I was assuming he had nothing to do with it
OK So Maybe I Just Have A Jaden Smith Fetish Sue Me
People Who Type Like This Are My Fetish
Red_THe problem with NA as it seems is we really don't have anything other than riflers. We have yet to create a world class IGL. Skadoodle is fine as far as awping goes but he's only one dude and he's special on the world scene.
Teams can completely get dragged through games with a worse individual skill than the opponent. The NA scene has decent riflers I think (shroud, tarik, freaks is ok, nothings alright, swag, nitro etc) but there really isn't too much surrounding that. If NA were to produce a good IGL I think we really could go somewhere with skadoodle on a team with them.
For example Happy from the old LDLC squad with Apex, kqly, uzi, and maniac was not incredibly skilled individually. However with Happy's fantastic IGL skills and solid rifle play, he continued to drag his lower skilled team through many tournaments to top4s and a final or two (I think
tl;dr NA needs a good IGL to actually compete against good teams
A good IGL would definitely help.
Unfortunately, trying to fix NA problems is like peeling back layer after layer of an onion made out of shit. First of all, the fact that IGLs (and good support players) are very rare is itself symptomatic of the fact that NA has an obsession with raw skill and getting as many sick aimers on teams as possible, as well as constantly cutting anyone who isn't getting lots of frags. Those types of players get really de-emphasized.
Unfortunately, that's just the tip of the iceberg. Let's look at the best ibp lineup that actually got to go to EU.
You have:
Dazed- the only really good NA IGL arguably.
Skadoodle- ditto for awping
Steel and AZK- ditto for support players, or at least 2 of the very few.
Swag- one of the best individual NA players.
Even that team was only able to make 1 EU finals ever. Wanna know why? It wasn't lack of skill. It's the ridiculously dumb practice conditions in NA. And I don't mean some whiny excuse about how bad the other teams are. I'm talking about scrim culture. EVERY team in NA does not take scrims nearly seriously enough, and from my experience, the teams that don't get their shit perfectly down in scrims are the ones who majorly tilt the second something goes wrong in the real LAN game.
ChinGooMaybe they would if they actually invited the best teams in na instead of fucking liquid
I agree, they should've invited keyd stars :D
I think everyone faced the same dilemma as me and wondered if it was worth it to get total shitters as soldiers in order to make room for stark
lucrativemustardoverlordone day people will realize how fucking awesome yukon is
maybe when valve finally releases mm and all of their 5cp maps are in it
but
-metalworks -sunshine +gpit/ashville +yukon
ez
sunshine isn't fundamentally bad (even though I hate it), but metalworks really is, map is just poor by design.
that is fair (although I do think sunshine mid is fundamentally bad, the rest is ok)
still, +yukon 4 lyfe

played against him in a lobby a year ago, he was nuts. then I played him in hl, and he was nuts. then I saw him in open and he was nuts. this season, he played games in IM and was nuts.
next season, will be in invite and will be nuts??
mustardoverlordc&c should win if they dont choke
people gotta start belieeeving me
will play for 2 weeks, absolutely wreck kids, and then vanish again
maybe it's just me, but even if Incarnati0n lives up to the hype, I think that Balls is reaaaally washed up at this point, and they either need a gold-efficient top laner who doesn't need as many resources or a more legitimate carry threat
I really hope the warriors rally, they deserve to win this season and steve kerr winning a ring in his first season would be nuts
