How teams counter double awps
Save to get full nades and flush them out of their angles
How G2 counter double awps
Force buy, do your best NEO impression and dodge bullets
Great game nonetheless

Maybe it's just me, but didn't you feel some C9 bias in their commentary?

Gotta fuel the only american dream. Also they might not do it on purpose cause Semmler is friends with the frenchies and they could try to avoid showing that bias and showing it towards C9 in the process

The worst part about it is he walks into it, no jiggle peek nothing, at least with a jiggle you have a far better chance than just waltzing in.

Realistically this is the best way it could've gone, it was almost luck that they lost this game -- that skadoodle 1v1 and especially that shroud 1v1 could've gone either way. I think C9 still has a good chance to make it through, though it's gotta be tough. They brought it to this game.

Imagine this match if C9 actually won the 2nd round after winning pistol for once. C9 played better CS than G2, but clutches and forces went G2's way. 0 map control in 2nd half OT didn't help either.
Jesus, North is 2-1 and C9 is 1-2, how the fuck

u/tgsan Jul 18 '17 edited Jul 18 '17
That 2HP clutch was so lame, good prefire but still, how many clutches did G2 have? my God. I'm actually curious btw, if anyone knows, I don't know 100% so.

The Kenny 1v2 was the turning point, Auti peeking off that obvious fake dumpstered their economy and it took them 4 rounds to be able to get in a position to bring it back

Cloud9 really solidifying themselves as the best team in NA right now.

Shroud was getting all the luck killing shox twice through smoke then it deserted him with apex on 2 health and that wooden door suddenly became impenetrable, he only needed 1 bullet to go through ffs.

Good close match. c9 had opportunities to win it but came up short. Winning pistol and than getting eco'd, on top of losing the 2nd round pistol, really hurt.

Proud of the fight. But just imagine if C9 could win second rounds after they win pistols. Also Stewie throwing the first round of OT was really bad. The first peek is fine, but why are you repeeking dry? Just hold the angle and get all that info and possibly a free kill.

Anyone else notice skadoodle picked up an AK, dropping his AWP and basically losing it and having to re-buy it the next round? Happened in the round where shox saved the AK and the rest of G2 eco'ed and they all died on platform B the following round.
Ska jumped up the platform and I think he wanted to throw the AK to his teammates but didn't have enough time to pick-up the AWP again?

Watching this team is so tiring. Seeing them consistently lose games because they give up the second round to a force after winning the pistol, lose 1v3s, and don't check corners is just so frustrating. Even with all their stupid mistakes they're right there in it with some of the best teams in the world. They've been on the fringe of being a great team so many times but just can't ever iron out those same issues. This is depressing. I'm sad.
