still one thing bothering me with the new layout - no gun names. It'd help the new people tuning in and could easily be added next to/underneath the ammo count

Pgl it would be awesome if had you the number of the player on the minimap on the side by their names so you can see who´s who on the minimap

Because PGL are desperate to seem innovative and as if they bring something different to the table but in reality all they are doing is moving whats already on the screen around a bit.

Glad someone actually said it. I mean their layout looks nice and all but it's nothing special.

This is some feedback on the UI, I think the square around the player picture is a bit too big and ugly, I liked it more how it was before. I hugely appreciate that you made the player names a little bit bigger. ;)

I'm interested to see a possibility of watching Fnatic academy going against their "big bro" Fnatic team.
It sounds like a top American college division-1 football team going against an NFL team.

I like that they keep switching up the casting duo's. Keeps things fresh.

i just can't get behind that new design, is that really how they want to have it at the major? maybe it's just irritating to me cuz it's different, but i feel like that is enough of a criticism, it just doesn't look like csgo, or maybe like cs 5 years ago...

xms is becoming more happy than happy himself, looking nearly exactly like him and getting an awesome ace.

Lucky me, I live in France and as there is a big strike today in my city (France gonna be France) and all the roads are blocked, my office allowed us to work from home today to avoid spending a shitload of time in traffic.

My god is Envy playing like shit. What the fuck are they doing? They played the most braindead T side i've ever seen. It actually looked like they were pugging, not even scrimming, just straight out pugging.
EDIT: They actually are motherfucking braindead. Jesus.
The last two rounds were painful to watch. What the fuck was ScreaM doing on TOP OF FUCKING RED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOTHER FUCKING SITE? And WHO THE FUCK THOUGHT LEAVING ONLY ONE GUY B WHEN YOU LOST MID AND GOT NO FURTHER INFORMATION WAS A WISE FUCKING CHOICE?

Pretty entertaining banter tho. I thought all envy fans lost hope ages ago. Maybe it was a couple of well played matches that gave you false hope.

Even Faze and G2 managed to get a competent team in the end so there is hope for everyone.

100% Agree. Feels like Happy needs to go. His calling is so weird.

u/SirNuk3 Vitality Jun 15 '17
He needed to go a long time ago. His strats suck, and he is fragging dead weight.

How many CT rounds are Kinguin going to throw on this map? 5v2 turned 3v1, 4v2 and another 4v2 they've lost now; this is them out of the minor because of that because I don't trust their Cobble.

u/VeryConfusedPerson12 Jun 15 '17
Anyone know the video settings or viewmodel that they are using the stream looks beautiful

u/GuyFauwx Jun 15 '17
They said they used a custom videofilter to enhance the colours of the stream, especially the blacks

Well, im pretty sure that kinguin will show some good plays agnist BIG.
It's about motivation in their heads, they aspiring to be 2nd best polish team after VP. But not this is main reason to their win. Looser will play vs envy in elimination match, and it will be bo3, so there will be less chance to get an upset.

u/kautzy Jun 15 '17
They are the second best Polish team. They won the national championship and it wasn't very close.

I guess playing good once in a while and sucking dicks rest of the time still makes you pro player (applies for every nV player)

Fnatic Academy playes as BallistiX only for the Minor.
