Avangar aren't the best, but buster is really making a name for himself

u/EliteDemonTaco Jan 13 '18

His one-deags are on point, both today and yesterday. Pretty impressive showing overall.

I believe Dosia is IGLing now, and I honestly don't understand the logic behind Reddit's constant lust for unnecessary roster changes

Buster isn’t a support player and Dosia is though, plus he’s the team captain and helps keep the team together

Avangar is doing better than a lot of us expected imo

Some of these guys have promise

2

u/Peanutslaver Jan 13 '18

I expected even more maybe I was a little too hopeful too soon. Next major maybe, and hopefully they'll get 1 or 2 wins in this one

As a SpaceS fan I'm happy that they show up, but AVANGAR did well, too! GJ to both teams!

u/Cheesewithmold 1 Million Celebration Jan 13 '18

Xantares is feeling after that win. Thank you.

u/mazdachillidene Jan 13 '18

Solid game by Space Soldiers, which has become my favorite team recently. MAJ3R had a solid game, and XANTARES utterly destroyed. XANTARES is a fantastic player who is definitely on the rise and can really knock some people out! Overall, solid game for SS.

Complain as much as you want about the seeding system, but how else is the mainstream CS audience (such as myself) get to know new teams and players? Space Soldiers have been solidifying their presence for a little while now, but buster almost stole the show.

avangar has a lot of potential, I hope to see how well they'll do in the future

u/MJuniorDC9 Jan 13 '18

Nice showing from ngiN today. Last rounds were all about seeing who on AVANGAR would die first so buster would be stuck in palace.

1

u/crazyiwann Jan 13 '18

i dont know, people cry about -ngin for months but after despe leaving he is playing ok. he often delivers when calyx/xantares got worse games, he is ok in clutches. it doesn't change that they dont have main sniper in the team.

2

u/nomoresky Jan 13 '18

ofc he is much better than despe. but its obvious that they need a real awper to get somewhere important in tournaments. so ngin is the first choice for that.

2

u/Ozanius Natus Vincere Jan 14 '18

ngiN is the taco of this team

u/E_of_T Jan 13 '18

FeelsBadMan for my boys :( Hope they will be able to snatch 2 victories

u/sarthak94 de_nuke Jan 13 '18

They will!

u/ihateredditdamnit Jan 13 '18

1 win, enough for me, see you next time.

u/OJbeforethebadstuff 10 years coin Jan 13 '18

How did Jame end up with just a usp in that 1v2 they lost? Did he just straight up drop his awp by mistake?

i dont think it's about cis teams being bad, just that the 4 top CIS teams are all outside the minor system, CIS as a region is better than asia by miles.

Oh really?

Vega destroyed NIP last time.

Vega win yesterday against your belovged Renegades.

Flash almost beat G2.

Each and every region showed up apart from EU given the fact these teams are new to the scene and playing for tye first time on. Lan.

u/AndyFNG MOUZ Jan 14 '18

I'm not talking about Vega mate, I'm talking about AVANGAR and Quantum. These teams don't belong here.

"Current CIS teams that got through''

u/sarthak94 de_nuke Jan 14 '18

Well AVANGAR is doing decent. Much better than your beloved ENVYUS.

So? Give me a reason why Envy is here..

Plus players in AVANGAR are super young and its there first ever LAN.

They look amazing for the first LAN and have some amzing players like Qikert and Busta.

Space Soldiers did beat Optic.

And NIP don't deserve to be here not at all.

NIP is just terrible.
