FaZe now set up for a quick coast through c9 into an easy dunking on Liquid

Another big failure from SK (and success for Liquid). Is FaZe now the best team? Will an all-star lineup actually work for once? Their recent results have been pretty crushing.

wait, I missed pick ban, but how on earth did faze end up getting the two maps they've historically been best at?

kNg officially out of Immortals. I've never seen a guys stock drop so fast in CSGO, he went from fan favourite to trash so quickly.

I'm no longer a part of @Immortals! Thanks for all the support given during this time, I wanted to play [today's game] and help my team [that] needed [the help] and asked me [to].
cogu to Immortals? horvy?


also: Space Soldiers "despe" banned for cheating on ESL. that's been your CSGO news minutE!

Is there any truth to the rumor that despe asked one of his teammates (a "real pro") for help at getting legitimately good, and he flipped him to ESL officials to have him removed from the team ASAP?

His last games on the site are all 1v1 AWP stuff, surely he wasn't cheating there?

Sounds funny but I have no idea if it's true. His ESL matches on his page are all six years old and from Source. Also their website gives me nostalgic cancer. Probably the worst designed website I've ever seen for a 'major' company. It's like an incomprehensible warren. It used to have 3 iterations active at one time where links took you to different versions.

lucas and hen1 requesting release from Immortals lmao. Dumbass children can't keep it professional enough to keep a good thing going.

Although this opens up the possibility of a scary-sounding Brazilian party squad: fnx, lucas, hen1, kNg, 5th

oh yea i guess if those three stick together the new org will get it but i dont know if they are

edit: i figure the immortals org wants to keep the spot though (or at least not let it transfer) so that's probably what's preventing them from dropping the brothers like hot potatos

e2: yeah looking at the quote about the release clauses i'm assuming they don't want whatever org picking up both the brothers and kng and stealing the spot from them. letting the spot go to a qualifier team makes it more likely for the new immortals skwad to make it back into the major

comedy option: they sell lucas and hen1 to the highest bidder explicitly for the major spot and then make a surprise buyout of GOD B, forcing a conundrum as now both rosters have 3/5 players eligible for reinvitation

Dear Diary,

yesterday I played in my first goonman. It was fun! I got eight or nine kills and we tied. I did not drop the ball too badly. My GPL or whatever went up by 2.82 and I was told that is A Lot.

First few games of goonman will have some wild swings because the elo system it's based off of doesn't know what your "true skill" is. In a few games you'll be down to decimal point gains/losses.

Which, considering you've played multiple games and the system has smoothed out your gains/losses, is really loving bad
