Damn BiG won both pistols, and got both sides 3-0, and it was still soo close. That could have gone other way soo ez.

They even had to make a comeback to win it.

??? When have they ever beaten a tier 1 team??? Maybe in some online bo1? Certainly never on LAN.

2

u/Slithar Jun 15 '17

They have never played a tier 1 team on LAN though, not yet. I think.

This team literally came from the bottom up. They came up second in premier and then got to Pro League through the relegation. This is their first major qualifier.

The team is in constant ascent. Maybe, MAYBE they could win some tier 1 teams when they do play them in LAN.

BIG confirmed better than EnVyUs

BIG are winning the major vs c9 in finals.

Jebaited

u/Lyr0WaR Jun 15 '17

I'll have to say it, BIG were pretty lucky to win both pistols. It was the only way they could have beaten Ballistix. Good luck to the swedes though, I hope they get through to the major qualifier (although that would mean beating nV :( ).

u/moonlite1337 MOUZ Jun 15 '17

Not if Kinguin beats NV in the BO3 later.

2

u/Baconmoontwist Jun 15 '17

Kinguin is up 7-0 in the first map atm

1

u/moonlite1337 MOUZ Jun 15 '17

Ooh boy, and I thought about putting an /s behind my comment because it seemed so unlikely....

1

u/Baconmoontwist Jun 15 '17

16-2 on nuke for kinguin np

1

u/moonlite1337 MOUZ Jun 15 '17

And it wasn't even Kinguins map pick, lol

u/Waffliez FaZe Jun 15 '17

u/PootieTooGood BIG Jun 15 '17

that was about as exciting of a cs map i've seen in a while. so much domination by both sides at times

u/PoshNpie MOUZ Jun 15 '17

Spent the whole match wondering who the caster other than HenryG was. Never heard of him, but really enjoyed his casting. Also the way gob b plays drop is so interesting to watch.

3

u/MantaRochenHL de_overpass Jun 15 '17

His name is Harry.

2

u/friedbun Jun 15 '17

Just ... Harry?

u/Thrannn BIG Jun 15 '17

watching BIG games isnt good for my health. pls make it to the major.

10

u/sb2 Jun 15 '17

Yeah... :/

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '17

can you really get out with g2, mouse and others there though? itll be tough but its possible, need a bit of luck with seeding (inb4 big v mouse and big v g2)

2

u/ThePickaxePenguin FaZe Jun 15 '17

Just wait, they've still gotta make it out of the minor first

2

u/sb2 Jun 15 '17

I agree. Lets win one more BO3 to make it out first.

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '17

ez not even close

u/kingroudel BIG Jun 15 '17

BIGs T site honestly looked like they're throwing but the following CT side was flawless

1

u/friedbun Jun 15 '17

Suppose that's Gob B for you. Nevermind his ability in-game. His prep is impeccable if he is on it.

If auto-subtitles for english work or if your german is half decent have some throwbacks to Gob in 1.6 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X-Bz9IoH1SE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOUp2QyP_cM

FOR ANYONE LONG ENOUGH AROUND IF YOU WISH TO NOT GET THE FEELS, DON'T WATCH.

u/kingroudel BIG Jun 15 '17

cyx :(

u/friedbun Jun 15 '17

I said don't watch if you don't want to feel dude... :'(

2

u/MJuniorDC9 Jun 15 '17

Classic cbble comeback but I can't deny that BIG fought a lot to recover. Great showing from Ballistix too.

2

u/Candytorro BIG Jun 15 '17

Sick CT-sides.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '17

good comeback

1

u/made3 BIG Jun 15 '17

People say its over after the first half and I always say that BIG is good at comebacks

1

u/Rektalalchemist BIG Fan Jun 15 '17

what do big have to do to go to the majors? I mean how probable is it? is there another qualifier?

1

u/Acipenseridae Vitality Jun 15 '17

The two first of each minor are invited to the major main qualifier with the 8 challengers of the previous major

1

u/noggerino 10 years coin Jun 15 '17

The european minor has 3 major qualifier spots this time

1

u/Acipenseridae Vitality Jun 15 '17

Ah yes forgot about that, because of envy us losing their core right ?

1

u/Last_of_me Gambit Jun 15 '17

The top 2 of the minor goes to the major qualifier,where they have to face off teams like G2, C9, IMT, FaZe etc to compete for a spot at the major. The top 8 teams at the major qualifiers then proceed to the major.

2

u/charlescarmichael4 Godsent Jun 15 '17

top 3 since EU has 3 spots because NV lost thier spot when they changed their roster

1

u/Rektalalchemist BIG Fan Jun 15 '17

oh..

1

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '17

Tabsen top fragging. So surprised /s

1

u/whats_a_g00n Liquid Jun 15 '17

TabseN's match leading +8 came entirely against plessen against whom he was 10-1. Didn't catch the match but from that CT scoreline I'm assuming he just shut down Plessen's entries every time?

u/[deleted] Jun 15 '17

gob b 87 ADR against these tier 3 scrubs lol

u/AmChayChay MOUZ Jun 15 '17

flair che... oh.
