meanwhile, on the main stage...

e: LGB beat PENTA 16-3 on D2 and then just a few hours later lost to PENTA on the same map 12-16. No variance in CS though.

They've actually been doing really well recently, no big wins but lots of finals

Titan qualified for ESEA LAN finals and Starseries LAN finals, so their results online haven't been that bad either.

It's like maybe 20 min. not that bad. That's like 10 min each for removing one dudes stuff, plugging the next's in and giving them a bit of time to warm up.

Just wait until devs push an update that breaks every mod ever. They'll be complaining that their local hardware stores are out of rope.

They're the old Kabum lineup, they got a better deal with KeyD because Kabum couldn't afford to pay their plane tickets to the offline qualifiers or some bullshit like that.

Yea I prefer watching C9's POV stream to the main one. The casters are good but it's more enjoyable hearing team calls and hearing what the players think.

That team kill was just :stonklol:

Actually back during that time frame there was a televised Counter-Strike league on some special satellite TV channel, can't remember what it was called but it was absolutely a thing and circa 98-02 or thereabouts

I was playing/watching a lot of source at the time and CGS tried to change all of the match configs to make it better TV. They removed pistol rounds and people started with a lot of money on round 1. They also almost halved the round timers to try to speed the game up. It was a disaster.

Betting skins was the best thing to increase competitive CS viewers ever. I'm surprised Valve doesn't run it's own betting site

I wonder if the tournament runners told the teams not to say racist poo poo/"rape" in their comms for this second/POV stream. There was a bunch of drama over that when they made the comms available in Dota 2.
