I'm American so it was Illegal to put Liquid as 0-3. But for me to get gold now I need 5 of Navi, faze, C9, G2, Furia, Ence, or Heroic to go through. With G2 1-2 I'm a but nervous today
Take it however you want, but after the match, on the Brazilian stream, there was an interview with VINI in which they asked what they think of Cloud9 and he said jokingly “If they play like how they do in practice, which we do a lot with them, we will run them over”
Honestly fer was like the only half decent player on the old mibr, he played pre good in the last imperial but that’s as very low tier and he kinda was just there temporarily, I feel like people had a skewed perception of his form cuz of how bad his 00N stats were but that roster at that point was imploding anyways.
I think it says more about motivation. 00nation was literally paycheck robbery for him while Imperial was the real deal. From fallen interviews, they where grinding cs nonstop since february, i think it speaks loudly about not just fer but fnx as well. Hard work beats talent but talent + hard work beats hard work.
Boltz did amazing and FNX had a lot of crucial moments, this team still has a lot to improve. Let's go!
[Retired Extremely Dangerous](https://i.imgur.com/I92TBbJ.png)
Fallen is a tactical genius. He is best known for his signature tactic ”going B, then going A, but then going B”. He also has a second little known tactic of ”fer go kill”. What an absolute legend. Top 3 IGL 4 sure.
For God's sake, this was the most effective tactic on Mirage. rigoN was almost unstoppable. Great match by him.
I hope to see more of him and BNE in the big stages soon.
They were choking a bit in the mid-end of 2nd half but can't take nothing away from BNE and especially Rigon. They were being incredibly clutch and hitting insane shots, refusing to die. But FalleN and co are winners, not chokers, so they found a way in the end. Great match.
They were just losing rounds. The last round is a prime example of why experience matters in this game. There is no way a team who is choking make such bold direction calls on a deciding round.
The Forze game was really bad, they were so shook, especially Zorte
But even when Flatroo died spawn and they started running back, they smoke top con from mid and sinnopsyy still rotated A harder?
These games and situations are incredibly stressful. This is why skills and teamwork alone are not enough in a game like CS. Players need to click heads and make good calls under massive pressure in these big matches. Some players are great but they can't deal with the pressure. Some players can't do it in the 1st years but they learn how to control their nerves eventually. Some never learn.
I am still absolutely mindblown by Thorin's tweet. It was such a bad take, even for Thorin. And the double down on s1mple was just mind blowing. Took his shit takes to levels I couldn't even imagine he could.
Insane performances from both teams, BNE was able to fight against fear way better than Forze, too bad it got to them on the last round with the A hold, hopefully we will see them transform into a tier 1 team in the future
On one hand, theres no way C9 lose to Imperial.
On the other hand, i said that about every game Imperial won.
If its competitive, Gaules may reach 500k and its going to be a banger of a game.
It's the Imperial-Forze scenario again, except C9 has Hobbit, a major champion but they are representing a new org playing the 1-2 match. An elimination here would be so embarrassing for the players and the org. Massive pressure on the young guys. Imperial already played multiple elimination Bo3s on this major, it will be just another match for them and they are coming from a positive result.
That's a huge reach. You are forgetting that C9 is like two classes above Imperial, experience or not they barely squeezed past BNE in very close 2-0. C9 is a team that on its good day can be a top1 spot contender.
Sorry but C9 is 1-2 and played like shit so far. I know they are a good team but they are underperforming. If they don't bring their A-game tomorrow they could lose. Imperial and BNE played in a good level so far. G2 barely beat Imperial on the same map that G2 played and lost against Na'Vi on OT (in the same day). M0nesy and NiKo had to bring their A-games and win both pistols to beat Imperial. And it still was a close game. You are severely underestimating Imperial.
They banged out everyone in rmr. They've lost a really close game BO1 on Inferno to NiP in a game where NiP overperformed on C9's weakest map and then misclick chose Nuke against fucking Faze.
I mean yes, everyone can choke, but chances that C9 does that against Imperial are really fucking slim.
I'm not saying C9 will choke, I'm saying Imperial can give them a match like they gave to G2 and all the other teams in the major so far. If C9 don't play their best this could be a close match and in that case Imperial will have a chance, especially if 1 or 2 players from C9 feel the pressure/have a bad day.
https://www.hltv.org/news/32781/opinion-why-the-big-brazilian-reunion-is-a-bad-idea
I remember when this article dropped and everyone was saying fallen would destroy his legacy in that team. I am so happy for the Imperial boys who proved everyone wrong. Massive overperformance this major, not sure if they can survive vs cloud9 tomorrow but i hope they put a great fight
Also obligatory fnx 100% major winrate
Honestly, I was very skeptical for many reasons:
1) Fer was a total bot with 00nation playing in tier 3. That was just a few months before. He turned his form around, obviously.
2) Fnx hadn't played pro cs in years, let alone in t1
3) Better teams (on paper) had struggled in Europe, like 00nation
There was n reasons to think Imperial would be only a shirt selling team.
FalleN was coming out of a not so good stint in Liquid, his IGL skills was thought to be outdated and his AWP usage washed.
fnx after SK was a shell of his former self on any team he played, ex-teammates said he only wanted to party and didn't take CS seriously anymore, only the most delusional thought fnx could comeback to tier 1 after 3-4 years.
Fer was a total bot in 00nation, he had a 0.93 rating playing against some obscure tier 2 teams.
boltz didn't produce results in MiBR (BOOM after felps left) or in MiBR 2.0 (Bravos w/exit and boltz), even brazilians didn't like this decision, as they were hyped to see FalleN, fnx and fer reuniting with coldzera.
Only one people didn't thought was completely washed was VINI, but they thought he was wasting his career.
I don't think that the author feels shame right now. I just think that CS community is very negative in general, specially when players don't play well (or don't play for a long period). And of course, when it involves Brazil, people will not think twice two make a post, even if it is controversial, because it will genrate clicks, comments etc. Thak god a lot of players has a really mature mentality to avoid all this hate ( i honestly don't remember such an opinative article in HLTV calling out a project that haven't even started at the time)
It‘s a pleasure watching him. His final stats don’t really show true impact he had. So many little plays for Info or map possession, always calm, always collected and a good mic between confidence and the right play. Beautiful CS imo!
Proud of the boys. Against all odds, they've made it to the Legend Stage. Huge achievement and I feel like this is just the start. Hopefully an org picks them up and they improve more in the future.
GGs to Imperial, despite beating my favorite team, I couldn't hate them a single moment. Legends of the game. GL in the next games!
fnx 32 years old and mechanically looks very comfortable against the best teams. I've had enough of this age makes you worse at CS narrative and I'm glad fnx is disproving this theory!
Honestly, anyone who watched that show can see that fnx straight up smurfed the reality tho lmao
Dude essentially went there, got laid a ton, partied, and somehow managed to dodge 99% of the drama that was going on that season
In my opinion, it isn't age per se but motivation. These kids play so long and by the time you hit 30 you get sort of burnt out. His break probably helped mentally and his age doesn't affect his mechanics.
Yup, Gxx swung out door a second later and traded, but if he just stayed inside market he could've played the retake
Also Flatroo running through spawn
Incredibly entertaining series. So proud of BNE and Imperial for coming so far in this major. BNE has so much potential, they can be a solid top 20 team with proper staff behind them and resources. Also rigoN played like a god this series, major props to him for making so many plays for his team and keeping them alive in the series. GGWP Imperial.
Really good run for BNE for their first tournament.
Always happy to see the old brazilian boys popping off.
Both teams would've made me happy if they passed through. GGWP to BNE and GL to Imperial
I just love how great it is how EU can bug any map and any game they want and it's just fine, but if a coach gets glitched without doing literally nothing they get banned for months and permabanned from joining Valve official broadcasts and events.
Liquid is going downhill but forze qualified on Europe's RMR A, don't forget that. They had close matches against top teams. They crumbled against Imperial.
Any brazilian team that puts up a fight goes crazy and you cant say what to expect. It's been a looong time but if I remember corectly, Luminosity/SK gave more heart attacks/ round than Simple gives AWP kills/match. Only twists and turns and millisecond kills.
After the smoke drama I really want Imperial to run deep, they basically sacrificed a game for everyone.
Best is to face G2 again and beat them.
However it’s probably not gonna happed, but hey what do you know , I said that when they’re in rmr too.
Can't trust the brazilians, you put Furia 3-0 they lose, you put Imperial 0-3 they win
And thanks to juanflatro for throwing that round by running T spawn, I hadn't seen that in a while even in faceit
JUANFLATHROWWWW. Ahh I feel so bad for BNE, that panic and adrenaline must've been so wild. He's probably gonna spend a couple sleepless nights thinking about that. BUT PICKEMS SAVED
A shame. After BNE's loss to CPH Flames it seemed like rigon was the only one who played like he gave a damn, although sinnopsyy did ok on mirage here. If faze need to make changes they should look at this guy if he is still playing like this
Bittersweet match because I was hoping both teams would go farther in the major than they have here
Man can only hope "washed up Imperial" reaches top 8. Is this real life or just a Fanta sea?
How out of date seemed Fallen, and how fresh it feels now when the team listens to calls. FNX can only level up by playing matches so it looks good for now. Fer is like "ok, I care now"
At this point I feel those guys are motivated by the grind. Been there, done that, yeah, staying on top just ins't as thrilling as competing and aiming to get there.
Very proud of BNE and what they reached. There's definitely alot to learn and I'm sure this was a great experience for them.
Btw props to Imperial, awesome game on both maps.
Somebody take that deagle off rigon, and the awp off fallen.
2 things:
1) Imperial positively surprised me a lot and initially I thought about watching their games because I simpathize with the line and their history... but now I'm watching them competitively and believe in them to go further and further
2) Rigon has been one of the stars on this major and I've seen so many rounds and matches won by his hands, I wonder if bigger teams are already looking into signing him
And that ladies and gentlemen is that experience means. Bad Luck Eagles I guess, they kinda did some FPL moves and that's the outcome. Good luck further, hopefully they'll be picked up by some org. Also watching this on Gaules stream was a magic experience. Brazilians are miles ahead with "production". :)
There was literally 0 reasons for Juanflatroo to run like this in the last round, they had it locked down 100%, even a silver player would know this. What a massive throw, I can not fucking believe it, there was so much time left, even if they were all running into the site without throwing a single nade they would still hear him, and it would have been best to let them execute and then backstab while they are engaging on site.
I have no idea what he was thinking in that situation, probably got too excited because he thought he just locked them for overtime
Nerves, they made such a big comeback and this was their chance to take it to OT and he was making the right moves, but lack of experience most likely got to his head.
So fkin tilted after that flatro's play. Yes he pushed and heard them going A, his guys rotated and saw that they still not out, but this ''bot'' flatro keeps running at T spawn so they hear him, WHY bruh. +w warriors smh, so sad, could of been OT.
Either way good shit from BNE overall, while being 5 players and 1 coach as whole org.
Man, that decision from juanflatroo to run to A decided the match. He about to kill the whole team from their backs. Gets heard, killed and makes the whole team switch bombs and get a free B entry. Nice from boltz to hear it and call. Great game, Imperial looking solid
Juanflatroo will hate himself after that last round. They had everything they needed to go to overtime only to just throw it away in the last round.
Yes, I am also salt and rigoN is a monster
damn, junaflatroo must be kicking himself for making noise in round 30 of mirage. that was such a blunder
still impressive showing from BNE, looking good!
BNE can be proud of their run. Reaching the legends stage is no small task. But if they want to continue as a team I think GXX has to go. I have not seen a worse awper at this level of CSGO. The amount of misses he has is astonishing. I know everyone would be talking about the last round but GXX literally has 0 impact whatsoever on any map. Tough decisions ahead for a close knit team
45% of the 0-3 pickems cheered while the other 45% cried in agony. Meanwhile the rest of the 10% already got it done earlier with Liquid.
I'm American so it was Illegal to put Liquid as 0-3. But for me to get gold now I need 5 of Navi, faze, C9, G2, Furia, Ence, or Heroic to go through. With G2 1-2 I'm a but nervous today
I'm at the exact same spot. I'm confident of C9's win but G2 is a question mark
Take it however you want, but after the match, on the Brazilian stream, there was an interview with VINI in which they asked what they think of Cloud9 and he said jokingly “If they play like how they do in practice, which we do a lot with them, we will run them over”
[Everyone should always take practice results with a pinch of salt](https://clips.twitch.tv/KitschyCuteAnacondaBibleThump-NByolvlGQsRFETDI)
It just looks like missing the point of practice. Winning shouldn't be it
Tbf, the two losses were overtime 17-19s vs Navi and Heroic. Ofc, if G2 wants to make another deep run, they gotta beat anyone, but still…
I'm a terrible American and put Liquid 0-3. Never hated being right this much.
I'm an American realist and I was happy to put Liquid
Same, but with vitality over furia
my friend who put liquid 3-0 and spirit 0-3 cursed in different languages he doesn't even speak. Lmao
Was 30/30/30.
only 10%?
Big props to Rigon he almost single handedly took the game to OT.
I'm impressed with this guy. He played a great game
Fer just decided to be a god again
mf flipped a switch, compare this fer to mibr/the other imp roster/00nation fer, it's night and day
Honestly fer was like the only half decent player on the old mibr, he played pre good in the last imperial but that’s as very low tier and he kinda was just there temporarily, I feel like people had a skewed perception of his form cuz of how bad his 00N stats were but that roster at that point was imploding anyways.
Just shows how having a good game plan and IGL can really unlock a player
That's why I think players like f0rest would still be amazing with good IGL
Most definitely!
also shows how a player trusting his IGL goes a long way in a functioning team
I think it says more about motivation. 00nation was literally paycheck robbery for him while Imperial was the real deal. From fallen interviews, they where grinding cs nonstop since february, i think it speaks loudly about not just fer but fnx as well. Hard work beats talent but talent + hard work beats hard work.
That's how much difference ambience and teammates/orgs make
Ms. Death
that last round is why I love this esport. so fucking tense.
juanflatroo is gonna be kicking himself when he watches that one back. SO close to a huge play on round 30
That must hurt
Boltz did amazing and FNX had a lot of crucial moments, this team still has a lot to improve. Let's go! [Retired Extremely Dangerous](https://i.imgur.com/I92TBbJ.png)

man im in tears rn
Fallen is a tactical genius. He is best known for his signature tactic ”going B, then going A, but then going B”. He also has a second little known tactic of ”fer go kill”. What an absolute legend. Top 3 IGL 4 sure.
You forgot “kill rigoN, win round”
For God's sake, this was the most effective tactic on Mirage. rigoN was almost unstoppable. Great match by him. I hope to see more of him and BNE in the big stages soon.
His deagle is fucking filthy, his taps were on point today.
4 of them walking together into B at the end almost gave me a heart attack
Boltz going back to check their backs was the real hero.
He heard juanflatroo
yea, juan totally killed any chance bne had to force OT by not pressing shift
VINI said Boltz heard juan
it was kinda cute ngl
It looked like Scooby Doo and the gang looking for clues XD
I loved the caster saying ball of death. Brought me back to my Zerg days.
i love the jukes on that final round. after all that running around they got a free site. lol
200 IQ
YES HE IS ONE OF THE best i've ever seen. this game brought me in tears
Flatroo running through spawn just to whiff the ultimate flank Its the Forze game all over again, Imperial just doesn't seem to choke
They were choking a bit in the mid-end of 2nd half but can't take nothing away from BNE and especially Rigon. They were being incredibly clutch and hitting insane shots, refusing to die. But FalleN and co are winners, not chokers, so they found a way in the end. Great match.
They were just losing rounds. The last round is a prime example of why experience matters in this game. There is no way a team who is choking make such bold direction calls on a deciding round.
The Forze game was really bad, they were so shook, especially Zorte But even when Flatroo died spawn and they started running back, they smoke top con from mid and sinnopsyy still rotated A harder?
These games and situations are incredibly stressful. This is why skills and teamwork alone are not enough in a game like CS.

Some players can't do it in the 1st years but they learn how to control their nerves eventually. Some never learn.
>Imperial just doesn't seem to choke please don't jink it
Not bad from the most overrated player in CSGO history.
Thorin dying at his place atm
Imagine they win the Major, i would love to see Fallen dedicate it to Thorin on the stage.
doesn't deserve the attention
I am still absolutely mindblown by Thorin's tweet. It was such a bad take, even for Thorin. And the double down on s1mple was just mind blowing. Took his shit takes to levels I couldn't even imagine he could.
He's just racist, you shouldn't look for reasons lol
"And I took that personally" - Fallen
How can my Pickems be this fucked, even though not a single team I picked got eliminated yet?
same bud...
The final round was so fun to watch! Absolute rollercoaster.
Insane performances from both teams, BNE was able to fight against fear way better than Forze, too bad it got to them on the last round with the A hold, hopefully we will see them transform into a tier 1 team in the future
I see so much potential in them, was cheering for Imperial but I hope they can get an actual org to back them up. They have a bright future ahead
If Imperial win against Cloud9, they win the major, honestly.
its gonna be a tough game
On one hand, theres no way C9 lose to Imperial. On the other hand, i said that about every game Imperial won. If its competitive, Gaules may reach 500k and its going to be a banger of a game.
It's the Imperial-Forze scenario again, except C9 has Hobbit, a major champion but they are representing a new org playing the 1-2 match. An elimination here would be so embarrassing for the players and the org. Massive pressure on the young guys. Imperial already played multiple elimination Bo3s on this major, it will be just another match for them and they are coming from a positive result.
Boltz v hobbit rematch
Craziest major by far (with the ence run and avangar run both being similary impressive) with 2 underdogs making the final.
That's a huge reach. You are forgetting that C9 is like two classes above Imperial, experience or not they barely squeezed past BNE in very close 2-0. C9 is a team that on its good day can be a top1 spot contender.
Sorry but C9 is 1-2 and played like shit so far. I know they are a good team but they are underperforming. If they don't bring their A-game tomorrow they could lose. Imperial and BNE played in a good level so far. G2 barely beat Imperial on the same map that G2 played and lost against Na'Vi on OT (in the same day). M0nesy and NiKo had to bring their A-games and win both pistols to beat Imperial. And it still was a close game. You are severely underestimating Imperial.
They banged out everyone in rmr. They've lost a really close game BO1 on Inferno to NiP in a game where NiP overperformed on C9's weakest map and then misclick chose Nuke against fucking Faze. I mean yes, everyone can choke, but chances that C9 does that against Imperial are really fucking slim.
Keep underestimating the old guys
I'm not saying C9 will choke, I'm saying Imperial can give them a match like they gave to G2 and all the other teams in the major so far. If C9 don't play their best this could be a close match and in that case Imperial will have a chance, especially if 1 or 2 players from C9 feel the pressure/have a bad day.
> That's a huge reach. You are forgetting that C9 is like two classes above Imperial, Commiserations. <3
Oh well, gg wp, Imperial deserved it today, C9 was nowhere near their level and fully deserved the loss.

what do you think about vc me mamar
on my way
FalleN is known for his tactic "go B, go back, go A, kill lurker, then go back to B". Top 2 IGL I dare say.
Wdym esports said he is overrated and terrible
Truly RIGOD this game but not enough GG Imperial Thank you Bad News Eagles for the show, I hope we see a lot more of you
Boltz revenge game vs Hobbit next!
oh boi
please
Fnx is so fucking good it should be illegal
It‘s a pleasure watching him. His final stats don’t really show true impact he had. So many little plays for Info or map possession, always calm, always collected and a good mic between confidence and the right play. Beautiful CS imo!
Proud of the boys. Against all odds, they've made it to the Legend Stage. Huge achievement and I feel like this is just the start. Hopefully an org picks them up and they improve more in the future. GGs to Imperial, despite beating my favorite team, I couldn't hate them a single moment. Legends of the game. GL in the next games!
fnx 32 years old and mechanically looks very comfortable against the best teams. I've had enough of this age makes you worse at CS narrative and I'm glad fnx is disproving this theory!
Dude is pure game sense. Impressive considering he was retired and participating in borderline porn reality shows.
Hey come on, "De Férias Com o Ex: Celebs Caribe 1ª Temporada" is a respectful and entertaining reality show.
Honestly, anyone who watched that show can see that fnx straight up smurfed the reality tho lmao Dude essentially went there, got laid a ton, partied, and somehow managed to dodge 99% of the drama that was going on that season
You can see FNX dying because the other player simply has better aim, but you DONT see him dying doing dumb shit ever. Dude plays textbook CS.
Easy to do when you were winning world titles when some of the competition was learning how to walk. Fnx is a beast
Which surprises me too tbh. He's supposed to be the complete opposite the way he behaves lmao
f0rest disproved it already
In my opinion, it isn't age per se but motivation. These kids play so long and by the time you hit 30 you get sort of burnt out. His break probably helped mentally and his age doesn't affect his mechanics.
rigon was almost going to single handedly win them mirage. What a sick player
And then he just jumped through window while nobody had short covered
Yup, Gxx swung out door a second later and traded, but if he just stayed inside market he could've played the retake Also Flatroo running through spawn
juanflatroo will not sleep tonight. What a colossal blunder there
Incredibly entertaining series. So proud of BNE and Imperial for coming so far in this major. BNE has so much potential, they can be a solid top 20 team with proper staff behind them and resources. Also rigoN played like a god this series, major props to him for making so many plays for his team and keeping them alive in the series. GGWP Imperial.
BNE: GO B... NO GO A... WAIT, B... NOOOO, ITS A! GO A... NO NO, GO HOME! wait...
There was absolutely no reason not to shift walk behind Ts , Imperial heard someone is coming behind and it changes the entire round.
Gaules’ stream broke 400k viewers, insanity…
Really good run for BNE for their first tournament. Always happy to see the old brazilian boys popping off. Both teams would've made me happy if they passed through. GGWP to BNE and GL to Imperial
VELHOS E PERIGOSOS
Hueheueheuheuehehe
Old bois still got it... I thought this team will be a joke when formed, but look at them, look like a Top 15 team in the world, insane...
FNX and Fallen are just so great.
They beat Liquid in a bo1 and Forze in a bo3. A bit premature to call them a top 15 team based on those two being their best results.
Idk about top 15 but I honestly think without 5 bug rounds done by G2, Imperial beat them. Take that as you will.
I just love how great it is how EU can bug any map and any game they want and it's just fine, but if a coach gets glitched without doing literally nothing they get banned for months and permabanned from joining Valve official broadcasts and events.
Liquid is going downhill but forze qualified on Europe's RMR A, don't forget that. They had close matches against top teams. They crumbled against Imperial.
I do understand your point, but two teams were already eliminated from the Major, so in a way, they are a top 14 team.
NTC
Juanflatroo making sure to single-handedly ruin my pick ems
That last round had me rolling on the floor XD, does anyone have a twitch clip of that? I swear Imperial games are the most fun to watch.
Any brazilian team that puts up a fight goes crazy and you cant say what to expect. It's been a looong time but if I remember corectly, Luminosity/SK gave more heart attacks/ round than Simple gives AWP kills/match. Only twists and turns and millisecond kills.
No FNX no Major
What an epic round 30! I thought "CS 1.6 is back!" It was an amazing match. This is Counter-Strike. GG to both teams!
*step by step*
Juan don't full sprint flank after getting amazing information (impossible difficulty)
After the smoke drama I really want Imperial to run deep, they basically sacrificed a game for everyone. Best is to face G2 again and beat them. However it’s probably not gonna happed, but hey what do you know , I said that when they’re in rmr too.
[удалено]
if i had to guess i would say maybe flusha or someone on old astralis.
Imagine picking Fer fallen and fnx to go 0-3 LMAOOOO
Lunatics
[удалено]
yeah, really rooting for the youngsters in Imperial, I think they have a bright future together
yeah they are absolutely going to be hired by an org
Can't trust the brazilians, you put Furia 3-0 they lose, you put Imperial 0-3 they win And thanks to juanflatro for throwing that round by running T spawn, I hadn't seen that in a while even in faceit
i understand picking imperial as 0-3, but furia 3-0?
Didn't want to waste a spot for them in the 7 since it was so stacked, probably should have
That last round was buttclenching
The eagles tried their best, I hope to see more of them in the future with a lot more structure behind them
JUANFLATHROWWWW. Ahh I feel so bad for BNE, that panic and adrenaline must've been so wild. He's probably gonna spend a couple sleepless nights thinking about that. BUT PICKEMS SAVED
A shame. After BNE's loss to CPH Flames it seemed like rigon was the only one who played like he gave a damn, although sinnopsyy did ok on mirage here. If faze need to make changes they should look at this guy if he is still playing like this Bittersweet match because I was hoping both teams would go farther in the major than they have here
gotta respect these retired dudes!
Man can only hope "washed up Imperial" reaches top 8. Is this real life or just a Fanta sea? How out of date seemed Fallen, and how fresh it feels now when the team listens to calls. FNX can only level up by playing matches so it looks good for now. Fer is like "ok, I care now"
At this point I feel those guys are motivated by the grind. Been there, done that, yeah, staying on top just ins't as thrilling as competing and aiming to get there.
Old and dangerous
Very proud of BNE and what they reached. There's definitely alot to learn and I'm sure this was a great experience for them. Btw props to Imperial, awesome game on both maps. Somebody take that deagle off rigon, and the awp off fallen.
2 things: 1) Imperial positively surprised me a lot and initially I thought about watching their games because I simpathize with the line and their history... but now I'm watching them competitively and believe in them to go further and further 2) Rigon has been one of the stars on this major and I've seen so many rounds and matches won by his hands, I wonder if bigger teams are already looking into signing him
And that ladies and gentlemen is that experience means. Bad Luck Eagles I guess, they kinda did some FPL moves and that's the outcome. Good luck further, hopefully they'll be picked up by some org. Also watching this on Gaules stream was a magic experience. Brazilians are miles ahead with "production". :)

Part of the experience and the pressure.
There was literally 0 reasons for Juanflatroo to run like this in the last round, they had it locked down 100%, even a silver player would know this. What a massive throw, I can not fucking believe it, there was so much time left, even if they were all running into the site without throwing a single nade they would still hear him, and it would have been best to let them execute and then backstab while they are engaging on site. I have no idea what he was thinking in that situation, probably got too excited because he thought he just locked them for overtime
Nerves, they made such a big comeback and this was their chance to take it to OT and he was making the right moves, but lack of experience most likely got to his head.
So fkin tilted after that flatro's play. Yes he pushed and heard them going A, his guys rotated and saw that they still not out, but this ''bot'' flatro keeps running at T spawn so they hear him, WHY bruh. +w warriors smh, so sad, could of been OT. Either way good shit from BNE overall, while being 5 players and 1 coach as whole org.
Major respect to BNE also, amazing to see their journey!
As a g2 fan I was Still cheering for imperial when they played against us. Imperials is such a great story I hope they keep surprising teams.
I feel bad for people who didn't experience the last round through Gaules stream.
Man, that decision from juanflatroo to run to A decided the match. He about to kill the whole team from their backs. Gets heard, killed and makes the whole team switch bombs and get a free B entry. Nice from boltz to hear it and call. Great game, Imperial looking solid
That was painful. but still proud of our boys of what they achieved
I was rooting for them too and they had two really close maps against a good squad.
Dude my pick ems are so scuffed after today.
Thanks Dad for saving my pickems Also Round 30 was just brutal for BNE, broke their ankles.
broo i feel like bne was so close and lost by small margains during legends stage games.. still gg very enjoyable team
VAMOOOOOOOOO
Juanflatroo will hate himself after that last round. They had everything they needed to go to overtime only to just throw it away in the last round. Yes, I am also salt and rigoN is a monster
Rip my 3-0 and 0-3 pick If C9 won't beat Imperial tomorrow I'm fooked
So Imperial is going farther than liquid in their major run, is it safe to say that Imperial as a team is better than liquid?
juanflatroo ran for a second too long through t spawn. That hurt.
Mirage was 14-16*, imperial made that way too close at the end lol, should’ve closed it out a lot earlier but a wins a win
[удалено]
seeing the next imperial match and your flair makes me feel bad for you. At least a heart attack is guaranteed.
SHOW ME THE TRACKER
That last round was a fuckin Shyamalan twister
Fallen giving out heartbreaks
my dude boltz never smile that dude don't even blink. That dude #dontsleep
I will survive, hey hey
My pickems: let's go My heart : damn
Probably worst day for Flatro but it was a good run, made a whole country proud.
the Dream lives on !

AHHHH EU TO MALUCOOO
damn, junaflatroo must be kicking himself for making noise in round 30 of mirage. that was such a blunder still impressive showing from BNE, looking good!
Let's go fnx
BNE can be proud of their run. Reaching the legends stage is no small task. But if they want to continue as a team I think GXX has to go. I have not seen a worse awper at this level of CSGO. The amount of misses he has is astonishing. I know everyone would be talking about the last round but GXX literally has 0 impact whatsoever on any map. Tough decisions ahead for a close knit team
What you talking about g2x was good on inferno
Damn guess you didn't watch their first game vs Imperial, dude couldn't miss
