Only that round? They threw inferno with some questionable force buys imo. Train they did good but way to often they didnt cover each others back and force pushed alone. More than one round was lost becaue of this making it tabsen vs 3 or more

u/CynixCS Jul 21 '17

Gobb playing outside with keev was a disaster to look at...

Gobbs routine went like this: "smoke pop, sit behind wooden boxes, watch main - get rekt by tec9 guys storming out of pop, donate rifle, force keev into 4v1, hope Tabsen will 3k".

He was trying to get a refrag, so it wouldn't be 4x5 in the start of the round. IMT could easly reposition and prepare for a 5 man push anywhere. It was a risky move and it cost them the game.

u/SynchroWhat Jul 21 '17

Woah there, buddy... As much as I would love to see a VP vs IMT match, VP still has to win their match against North. It's Counter Strike, you pretty much never know which team will win, even if one is the favorite.

18

u/buzzpunk Jul 21 '17

VP definitely isn't a favourite either. People have been writing off North, but historically VP don't match up well with them, and that's not taking their poor run of form into consideration either.

The only thing going for VP is the arena to be honest, if they get in their zone and build momentum they'll stand a good chance, but it's far closer than people think.

Except in inferno. And that 14:14 situation, the 1v1 against Hen1 was poorly played. Which eventually lost them the round. He had the advantage but instead runs out and pushes Hen1 wich was completely unnecesary.

But then again if Big don't push against the forcebuy at 13:10, they win the game. Match thrown away by BIG.

  1. The Knife kills throughout the series were incredibly entertaining to watch.

  2. It was an inch by inch battle through every game. I don't care which team you support, that was a lot of rounds of CS, on a world class stage, with 500-600k people watching your every move. I am glad to have been able to watch the match.

  3. The trash talk, and bragging adds a whole new level into the game. Mental Warfare is real, and is also very entertaining to watch. You have to remember that for either team, getting this far is a new peak they've accomplished in their personal and professional lives.

  4. Major respect to the commentators for keeping the hype up, The players for an display of feats, and much love to everyone who reads this.

TL;DR: I F'n love CSGO. Excited for the rest of the tournament.

u/-abM-p0sTpWnEd 5 years coin Jul 21 '17

I really wanted Big to show the tactical play that's gotten them this far, but on Inferno they were just bumbling around aimlessly on T side, and on Train they made a lot of individual misplays that lost them the game, despite out-aiming Immortals most of the time. Sad.

This was one of the most entertaining series i've watched in a while. All the close rounds, clutches and knives got my blood pumping. A plesure to watch.

Tabsen threw the game away pushing upper halls with a M4A1 to engage in melee combat against tec-9 armor.

u/The_Chronox ar_baggage Jul 21 '17

Just taking a guess here, Does this mean "EU lost their voice" or something along those lines?

6

u/[deleted] Jul 21 '17

Dunno if serious or not, but it means "I don't lose to you", which HEN1 screamed after the 1x1

I always supported both brazilian teams. I think it was due time Immortals going farther than SK in a tournament. Leaving their shadows for once. I'm proud of the boys!!

Best game of the day.

u/papaspooky Jul 21 '17

Tabsen choked the last round. Wished we saw them more BUT GO VP

u/Magisko Jul 21 '17

Do we have a rivalry?

u/Redtriga FURIA Jul 21 '17

My Pick'Em is sad, but my heart is so happy. GG BOYS !

u/Fiiiimon G2 Jul 21 '17

What heartbreaking way to go out :(

2

u/FunnyButImGonnaKillU Jul 21 '17

One of the most thrilling matches I've ever watched and a big fuck you to all the racists and haters on twitch chat, both teams were insane and cheering and screaming, but of course douchebag teenagers (and thoorin) will always choose to hate on brazilians.

2

u/OppressedCardboard Astralis Jul 21 '17

Damn, what a sick match up! Hope to see a friendly rivalry between BiG and Immortals in the future haha

2

u/Galapagos_Tortoise Jul 21 '17

Some of the best CS I've seen in a while.

u/hypoferramia Astralis Jul 21 '17

As a neutral it was always going to be bitter sweet. Two teams with so much passion and two amazing leaders in Gob and Steel. One had to make their history and the other was going to have to settle with that legends spot. I'm just glad they gave us such an amazing series.

2

u/HixCS Jul 21 '17

On train BIG pushed when they knew immortals had low money why are they giving the tec-9's/pistols a chance at close range why not play back and just use your rifles and the awp why are they pushing B im so mad that they just threw the damn round

2

u/zardPUNKT BIG Jul 21 '17

Sadly just a bad performance from BIG today.

basically any other day this a win.
pick anything:

BIG winning more then 1/6 pistols
BIG not making 10 times more mistakes than usual
anticipate the yolo-pugstlyle that immortals always play

should have been semis at least :(

2

u/Briickz CS2 HYPE Jul 21 '17

GG WP hope BIG is going to get some invites to more events in the future :)

2

u/krimzy Avangar Jul 21 '17

Was so annoyed at BIG throwing the last few rounds... On the other side I've never heard of kNg until IMT picked him up and the dude is a beast! He could chill down a little tho

2

u/zrk23 FURIA Jul 21 '17

immortals and big should really discuss about doing a knife only showmatch

2

u/ILikeThisNameMore Jul 21 '17

At first I was worried I wouldn't get gold. Now I'll be happy if I get bronze

2

u/Miglekk Luminosity Jul 22 '17

Watched this during my english class. Teacher got mad, I got happy! FANTASTIC MATCH

2

u/ThetaSigma11 Liquid Jul 22 '17

I swear if I get one point short of gold because of Pick Em play offs I'm gonna be tilted.

If VP make it to the finals I will have 49 points.

Why do they have to make it this format have mercy volvo :(

2

u/Leelow45 Jul 22 '17

You just know that after or during the Grand Final Thoorin will tweet and say "Astralis vs SK was the real final" When it was a pretty simple 2-0 for Astralis. What an exciting match this was.

u/ayysizzle Jul 21 '17

What a fantastic series this was. Props to BIG, they showed they're deeper than a jump bug

6

u/senyorpenor Jul 21 '17

BIG not so good without the jump bug

3

u/AverageLover BIG Jul 21 '17

WHY did BIG lose to so many fucking Tec9 force rounds. This should have been such an easy win :(

4

u/TheMidgetPanda Liquid Jul 21 '17

Interesting to see that BIG loses inferno when they don't use the jump bug.
