Interested to see new NAVI play later as I’m not sure where to put them in my headcanon power rankings. Definitely a downgrade from old NAVI but by how much?
No problem! I'm using the Post Match Thread Creator which spits out a pretty good result, but right now KBin seems to be missing markdown table support (not sure about lemmy) and this magazine doesn't have the built-in team icons like the subreddit so I have to do a bit of manual adjusting.
Now that the blackout is over I don't expect to see any major growth any time soon, but if people keep posting here then hopefully more people will consider including this magazine as a source of content. We can keep posting HLTV articles and post-game threads here but right now the main thing we're missing is OC, so hopefully with CS2 around the corner people will start to post some clips.
Oh you already familiar with that, disregard my DMs in that case lul. The icons are a part of the CSS so we will have to do some integrating, Idk how long that could take, but it might take some time to figure it out.
Looks like the formatting is kinda borked, so I'll try and fix that. Oh well, at least the content is here.
Edit: Fixed up the content as best I can, looks like KBin doesn't support Markdown tables so plaintext tables in code blocks it is for now (if anyone has a better alternative please let me know).
I seem to recall Launders being quite good at kz (well before I started playing so please excuse my ignorance), so it's interesting to hear that he thinks that the CS2 movement is almost there given the negativity that I've heard from some other players. Good sign for CS2!
Complexity is probably real happy with a reason to stay in EU for another event. Get some reps in. I'm keeping my expectations reasonable, they're gonna win it all babyyyy lets go coL!
I guess Col is the team that I'm cheering for now that Liquid isn't NA anymore (although I'll always be a NAFFER), but I agree it's important to keep expectations reasonable which is why I think they'll also win the first CS2 major.
Mahone still seems a little nervous, but his segments can be really good. I remember a mid-round clip of coL, as well as one from a previous event, and he showcased how they adapted differently when in the same situation. I was seriously impressed.
TL;DR:
Moses - Liquid leaving NA sucks, but the players they're bringing in are good and have promise. Not a top ten team on paper, but mentioned Daps' track record on scouting talent and putting together teams.
Launders - Felt it was "traitorous" and a "huge mismanagement" of Liquid's brand. Not very optimistic about the team's future in the more competitive EU region
Maniac - Worries about Yekindar and Patsi role overlap. Regards Yekindar IGL with suspicion. Would be "surprised to see the team punch above the top eight"
Everyone started their response with what a blow this is to the NA region. Reasonable takes all around, I think.
Zedtronic - Sad to see Liquid go. Still a NAFFER, but Liquid wont be my home team anymore. EG then coL, if we go on nationality. Hoping CS2 saves NA CS.
