I'm pretty sure he is actually. And the way inferno is laid out, you can lurk literally everywhere which works well for him. 11-4 half in favor of optic. Lets see what their t side is like though.

NAF is calling. Hiko was tearing it up on CT side.

Ah yeah NAF is calling. I remember hiko saying something about finding his footing as a player and he struggled to be both igl and a fragger.
Also i'm not sure if infernew is a good barometer for how good optic will be.

Me too. Now he can focus on his plays. Sometimes on his stream he'll narrate his thoughts when he's trying to make a play, and I feel like he's the kind of guy that just needs to think and focus on his next moves rather than just let instinct and reactions take control. Because when he can lurk and make sneaky clutch plays he's at his best.

Hopefully he has a real banger of a tournament and gets picked up by Optic for real.

Last I heard he has not been officially signed by Optic, but maybe that changed. Peacemaker was signed, Hiko is standing in.

Optic would be pretty silly to not pick him up imo. Every team needs a brainy lurker of some sort (Optic is famously peanut brained :downs:), and I can't remember any other NA players with both intelligence and aim.

Apparently killing a teammate as the round starts gets you banned for 24 hours.

The love cannon has a very short range, about 2 feet, so you're inevitably out of range. I have to close the distance.

You were banned for 30 minutes, then 2 hours, and now 24 hours within the last week or two. Killing (or injuring?) a teammate near spawn/at round start will always result in a ban.

The next ban will be for a week.

No that one was on purpose. I didn't know you had to wait and thought it would just take money and say the "don't do that 2 more times im serious" message.

It'd be interesting if you could only play 'ranked' on active duty maps, and the inactive ones like dust2 only match by current rank but don't impact your rank at the end, so it's like casual mm.

Who am I kidding, people would jump on that instantly to be total shitheads to their team with no penalty. Ah well. It was a nice idea until I typed it out.

if you want to play dust2 without worrying about your rank just start a goonman

To be honest, I wish they'd make a 5v5 casual with no friendly fire, and no armor/kit starting. Kinda a warmup between casual and comp, and maybe based on rank.

it's not supposed to have a point, it's just an indicator of which maps pro tournaments are currently taking place on. also I think if you create a fresh MM lobby and reset the settings to default, only the active duty maps are checked. but you should be able to get a ranked "serious" game on whatever map you want imo

Legit the map on which I have played The Most Serious Game of Counter-Strike is probably militia, which I tried maybe twice. Each time people were super into playing what apparently was the meta + trying rly hard.
