I play 1 game after not playing for like 3 weeks after winning a bunch of DMG games on this account, they put me into a game full of MG1/MG2's and since I am so out of practice (I still end up carrying the team) we lose 16-14 and immediately deranked. LOL. MG ranks are still a bunch of terrible players.

If you haven't played in three weeks then your displayed rank was almost guaranteed to be inflated

Yeah I understand that, my point was that MG1/2/E ranks were still incredibly bad and the only reason we lost is that I couldn't start carrying until about halfway through the game after I got used to playing again, but I just couldn't do enough to win by then.

Today I was on my deagle only MG account and I got a team with two +right;+forward derankers on it, so I decided to go full LEM on the other team. We got up to about 10-8 and then the derankers started full on blocking and teamkilling me every round because I was literally getting 4 kills every round and winning the game. Eventually one of them gets a 7 day ban for trying to TK me, but we end up losing 16-13 or something with me getting 41-17.

What I'm basically trying to say is MG is still utter garbage.

So Threat is the new coach of NiP. The only question I have is why they didn't do this a year ago. Him teaching those lucker noobs how to play CS basically the only hope they have.

Xenology is an unnatural mixture of science fiction and formal logic. At its core is a flawed assumption...

that an alien race would be psychologically human.

It should still be good, you really want a good awper if you're going to have a dedicated awper, because you will set up on the map differently based on where he is. If you have a lovely awper doing that your map control gets holes punched in it

As I understand it I'm a mindless player mostly

s1mple did get kicked out of Flipsid3 for bashing on his team mates, which could be a problem in NA CS. Also, not only does he have to move across the pond, he has to take extra English lessons, apparently. It might turn out to be more trouble than he's worth.

Any EU goons around who wants to do a couple of games tonight with me and Devt? Any rank above MG1 will do, as that's our lowest. It'll be glorious(ly bad)

lurppis was pretty successful in EG with n0thing, fRoD, etc. NoA was also a great team but that was 2 NA players with 3 Euros so not exactly the same thing.

Yep. EG with lurppis was the last NA team to win an real international LAN (ignoring ESEA LANs).

Winterfox recently was a NA/EU mix. Didn't do well but they played a lot of games with their players still in Europe.

I think they dropped their EU players at the end of the season and replaced them with US players and won a lot of games including destroying denial esports
