​@@thesilentassassin1167 just remember, even if you don't have good enough strats, the first to hit the head wins, simple as that, idk why people say this roster is so much different from the one with just malbs added, don't know how it would've worked out with hooxi, rest and malbs together, but suddenly one more player hooxi goes away and everyone says this will flop, no, it will propably not, they may not win tournaments still, but they're definitely going to be a very good contender no matter the role clashes, the structure, this team will be a run for their money, never have we seen every player of g2 be a fragger, so we might just wait and see and either disprove what i said or prove it, nothing to hate of that team, g2 is a wicked team either way, so something clicks sometimes

@@ThebelgiumgamerFTW you have the correct opinion and everyone in the pro scene or not in silver agrees with you. Hooxi has decent calling/strats and plays like karrigan but is somewhat worse. People just shit on hooxi because its popular but he absolutely can keep playing cs at potentially t1 especially since worse igls than him are in t1, and he has a very logical path to high level coaching if no team wants him in the server

Story of malbs would be great

Tbh there isn't too many t1 IGLs on bench. I think they made a team that might work and can be rearranged after 6 months or whatever if it doesn't. For Snax I think this is the last chance in T1.

Think of it like football, saying players are put into roles like striker, winger, midfielder, or goalkeeper isn’t overcomplicating things. It’s about having a strategy. If you want to be the best, you need a game plan, and that means defining roles. Some players excel in certain roles, and others don’t. It’s the same with any game or sport.

Thing is G2 doesnt need a very deep strat book, they just need a decent IGL not a very tactical one, They are winning with just Niko IGL with a substitute in stewie who was just a little better than nexa or the same. Malbs is better than nexa. The thing is with Hooxi when all is working its good but there were too many games when something goes wrong and it does they cant get back up and hooxi doesn't reset the team and combine that with poor fragging in both him and nexa it doesn't help them much.

I don't think anyone would want to have Hooxi on their team, especially Liquid.

Huge fan of Mr. Snax and I am happy for Polish monster.

I’ll just say this bluntly, the community’s perception on this roster is meaningless. This same community said that the current Navi roster was the worst Navi roster in history, and that the Recent Cloud9 roster was going to be one of the best of all rosters in history. As for Cloud9, they got to quarters in a few tournaments, did basically nothing and then over half of the players left in only like 6 months. And for Navi, the roster they said would suck, ended up winning a major. They also said that the G2 roster that introduced Hooxi in the first place was going to suck as well, yet it was the first roster that actually had G2 winning tournaments. I say we should actually wait like at least 4 games before saying a roster is good or bad.

Hey Bud, maybe you could do a video and explain team roles and why they are so important for pro teams?

This assessment is entirely too harsh. Different players, different makeup. Chemistry, vibes and better aim can go a long fucking way my man. A long, long fucking way. To me, to make such confident predictions without any idea on what is going on behind the scenes in G2, without knowing anything about the players as people, or about the org as a business, these are hollow observations you're making. And you know what happens when you assume. If it fails, it fails. If it succeeds, it succeeds. Either way, let it be, don't hate on Snax coming back. We need legends in the game, and more importantly, in leadership roles.

@0Adnin

Are you talking about local scene or Pro scene ? Because if you are talking about pro scene, you got it wrong. Especially in G2's case. G2 is the last team that be like if it succeeds, it succeeds and if it fails, it fails. This is no NIP or ENCE or Heroic or Furia. No one these teams have legacy on the line. NiKo and M0nesy's entire legacy is on the line and they were literally 1 or 2 moves away from winning it all. People aren't disrespecting Big apple, the Lurker, the God clutcher. People aren't sold on Snax the IGL cause there is literally no winning results that shows he is a capable IGL. This is like NIP gave device ztr as IGL. Respecting Snax as a legend of the game is very different from Respecting Snax as IGL. And if G2 wants to succeed. Everyone including NiK0 (Except M0nesy) will have to change their roles and instinct in a very short time. If they want to succeed. Or else, be prepared to see your Beloved Taz and snax being fired by January next year.

@NotRandomHero222

9 күн бұрын

They're not MY beloved TaZ and Snax, they're historically known as two of the best to ever do it, so put some fucking respect on their names. NiKo already has a legacy without a Major to his name. Any Major he earns and achieves from here on will always be compared to his near misses in CSGO regardless. m0NESY has many, many more years of CS left in his tank, and is arguably the best player in the world at current, he'll be fine regardless of whatever happens in G2 from here. G2 literally won a fucking tournament competing against tier 1 competition with a stand-in who hadn't even played tier 1 CS in years. I think you need to chill the fuck out talking about legacy and understand: TEAMS take TIME to build, TIME, and if you think any roster move G2 could have made with whatever you deem as more fitting or better skilled players would have still taken TIME to work. So instead of repeating narratives from other sources, why don't you sit back and relax and enjoy the show, because it has nothing to do with you.

hey im not sure if somebody has mentioned this before, but the way you use the word "descent" is weird. the word basically means "fairly good" or "just good enough" yet for example you in this video call hooxi a descent person witch to me seems off. you have also used it incorrectly in your past videos. for some reason this has bothered me XD

I don’t watch much cs but ik snax has a good mental, he can keep everyone in check especially Niko and monesey

It's about chemistry. All star player/skilled players = not really successful.

From which clip was this scene in 3:48 ?

I’ll tell you what G2 owners are thinking. They saw Stewie working in Dallas IEM which helped crowd get behind the whole team, they are planning to do the same having Polish IGL and get Katowice now which is huge and support from crowd works. Just like for Karrigan, it worked the opposite in Dallas as crowd did not back them and the whole team could not perform. Your opinion might differ but this is how I see it.

i love this channel i will die on the hill that this is the best cs news channel. needs more subs

Hooxi couldn't call in the middle of the rounds which is imo most important igl job so pretty much any igl to him is a good change. Since he couldn't learn that crusial job in 2 years. Yes ppl will say he won 2 big trophies, but what exactly he did on those tournaments? Was taz v2 aka cheerleader meanwhile monesy hunter niko was in their top forms carrying and jks was insane anchor/clutcher. They won tourneys with their high skillbase/shooting skills not bcs they were tactivally better.

THEY CAN DO IT!

Damn Snax in a team with Taz? I feel some Golden 5 glory here

Any time a well known team gets a roster shake up, some fans tend to start pre-judging the roster before they’ve even played one game. I’ve given other teams that have done this a chance going all the way back to the original EnvyUs when they were a French super team to the old G2. As a fan of G2, I have every intention of watching this team try to adapt and grow. It’s best if you’re a G2 fan not to have extremely high expectations for their first match at the esports World Cup or even EPL season 20. If you’re expecting a perfect performance, you may wanna look at another team

I don't like G2 that much, but with SNAX and TAZ they got some of my favorite players :O

i think snax is a mediocre pick up for a igl, the problem mainly and practically only lies in the malbs pick up. they're taking a star player from NA and making him an anchor player, no reason to do that with all the anchor talent on the transfer list, including perfecto and JKS. And something else I want to add, now that his stint is done with GamerLegion, The team downgraded from Nealan when they picked up Snax, they were playing very clean and improving steadily from each game. But I think that g2 will upgrade with Snax, and Hooxi may even benefit from the shake up. Im just hating the malbs pick up more and more each day, a star player like him shouldn't get bottlenecked like that

Asuming the video was made BEFORE the confirmation of NAF to NRG

again, if you make these videos then make sure you are talking true stuff. the videos about hooxi where he gets 1 kills, or 0 kills, the same videos are made for karrigan, and other guys who go 1-12 or smth on a map. that has nothing to do with hooxi hate. but the guy doesnt have any impact to be honest, and other guys can clearly contribute more to G2.
