drat those headshots. I get the scout buy sort of - gives a chance for long range surprise picks?

Bodyshots also put the target in one shot range from a tec9 or deagle.

The cries of the dead are terrible indeed; you should try not to hear them.
Even I was nervous in that 1v1. Game literally won or lost in that spot for Astralis.

What I saw was that he's won 19/20 1v1s in Majors, but that was a 1v2. Pretty sure technically not all clutches count as every level below it. So a successful 1v4 isn't also a successful 1v3, 1v2, 1v1 etc.

Cheering for both teams here

I'm leaning to virtus pro mainly due to my man Taz and Neo but Astralis deserves a major win, so that won't be a wrong outcome either

Either way I'm just glad it went on to map 3

I think I want Astralis to win it slightly more because they are the forever bridesmaids. VP has at least had intermittent tournament success and a Major under their belts. Although it's not like a big disappointment if VP win because they are awesome.

How does a support player even do that, crazy play from xyp. Virtus pro losing clutches like that is p brutal.

It's just especially relevant in this matchup

Astralis are known to choke when it really matters and Virtus Pro are known for the exact opposite

I'll say it til the cows comes home as Xyp is my favourite player to watch, the guy is basically a clutch mastermind. Possibly the best in the world. He just doesn't have the insane aim talent of many other pros (although he is no slouch), so generally makes up for it with incredibly intelligent plays.
