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.

I was hoping for the signature Astralis choke at 14-15. Kjaerbye just went off where device did not and won them that map.

Astralis earned that win-- they had to fight tooth and nail across all three maps. Most exciting series in a while imo

this was easily the best major I've ever seen. every match from group stages to final had some great play.

I think CS has finally achieved ~parity and it's pretty great.

Best Major so far for sure. Swiss group stage important for that, match draws pulled very close matchups very consistently, almost no walkover games at all. Astralis had to beat the two best other teams to win it so it didn't feel like they lucked out in any way. Some sweet OT games as well.

For real. I'm also super loving happy Astralis won. I was gonna peg them to win but actually thought about it and changed to Navi :(

I really wanted either Navi, VP, or Astralis to win. To me those teams just seemed like the natural winners, I certainly wasn't buying into any of this bizarre optic hype, plus I hate that team.

For anyone curious, the dialogue goes, with a tiny bit of creative liberty to the translation

"Thank you, you Swedish watch towers. With plutonium we force the Dane to bend the knee. Here; Denmark! Shat out from limestone and water.. And there! Sweden, chiseled out from granite. Dane.... fucks... DANEFFUUUUUUUCKS"


Impossible to disagree for any sensible soul, honestly

maybe you can sync up the video from http://www.hltv.org/match/2307548-astralis-virtuspro-eleague-major-2017 and just watch it ingame, though that's a lovely solution

usually I would never bother or suggest such a thing, but the commenting was actually really good this final and especially so on the last map

I usually use the observer camera unless I think they're gonna miss something, I guess I'll watch on twitch/YouTube and only look at demos if I really see a neat thing.
