I'd be down for this. I was slowly scrapping my way out of silver fright before the reset. Now I'm back to silver 2 cause I have like 30 comp wins. Because solo queuing is bullshit.

No big surprise there. I've said it before, but at this rate NA shouldn't qualify for any majors. They all end up going out in the first round of groups, so what's the point? We just don't have the talent pool to support any serious bids.

Liquid will be good if they can figure out their IGL situation. Hiko apparently hates doing it. Make elige do it, he used to be an SC2 player. Or kick him and get Pronax.

NA has the talent pool, it's just spread out too thin between too many teams. It's not like NA pros don't know how to aim or are incapable of making smart plays.

NA teams rely on individual performance, foreign teams rely on teamwork.

I saw the rare Good Post on reddit a few days ago that kind of addressed this. Dude's really, really low tier clan played LG. Most teams would have just pugged and hosed around but LG ran strats, didn't chase kills and generally played like they would any top tier team. It makes sense that LG generally always performs well on LAN because they actually practice for it. They have a ton of in-game experience in legitimate competitive play.

I think a lot of the failures in NA have to do with what you see in FPL. People just messing around, rarely concerned with strats other than default > pick > push and doing stupid poo poo like chasing kills and not really showing any restraint when they have the advantage. It's pretty clear that C9 is completely lost and they don't really have any cohesion, and I'd wager that they rarely play together like they would in a LAN environment.

had the first 16-0 win on nu-nuke yesterday and I think I like the map quite a bit. still seems pretty ct-sided if you have it together on the defense but I think it's way more favourable to T's than it used to be. unlike old-nuke, having just one guy holding outside seems like a losing proposition, so if the T's get a lucky entry on a solo ramp or a-site they suddenly have a ton of map control

If you rush fast vent as T with one guy watching mini, you are guaranteed a plant every time as there is no longer proper vision from heaven.

Ya, it seems like a good way to get an almost guaranteed plant, but if the ct's are prepared or just fast, they'll have one or two ramp guys ready to meet you by the time you get down there. Had a couple of situations in a game where the bomb wasn't tossed to the front and the ct's managed to get close enough to shoot me behind marshmellow before I could finish the plant

could maybe do some fun split b's by first sending people down vents to force that rotate and then pushing ramp to get behind the b-players

I personally recommend holding down the W button until you are in vents

Anyway if you can get to mini fast enough and the Ts are rushing vents then chances are their heads will all be nicely lined up and you can potentially get a free double or even triple kill with a good spray down.
