That list doesn't include NiP's most recent ESEA run either. They definitely are not the NiP of the past, but... I'm still giving the edge to NiP in this bo3 although I would like to see Cloud9 go all the way.

As sad as I think it is I think Cloud 9 isn't going to beat Nip in all their games they have been incredibly close and I think it will tire out their players in a bo3. I really have trouble with all the bets I think I am going to hold off for the bo3s tell I see how the teams will fare against each other when they have to play longer series.

You know NiP is in trouble when they're getting carried by Friberg and Xizt.

I'm not even sure what Flifflaren's role on that team is anymore since f0rest seems to awp more these days. I haven't even seen Fifflaren going positive in months.

My picks for tomorrow:

http://cloud-4.steampowered.com/ugc/44228233339823530/9EB6F62B1F9EC0F5736D720F6DBBD16152EE6B1C/

39Pts so far. 12/16 correct picks.

Being carried by Friberg isn't necessarily a bad thing since he's the entry fragger and it's good to see him actually getting his entry frags. I think the stat at gfinity was something like...Friberg/Forest were like...20% on entry fragging whereas the rest of the tournament was way higher in percentages. No wonder NiP were losing with those numbers.

But yeah, definitely GR/f0rest have not been showing up as much as they used to when they won Copenhagen and Dreamhack Summer.

I'm not usually a betting man, but I have one dollar on NIP because I believe in Get_Right and Friberg despite the fact that everyone's saying C9 has this.

Yeah you might be right. I've only really noticed Friberg getting the kills on CT side.

GTR and f0rest are barely able to stay even these days and Fiff is a rock-solid 0.25 K/D.

At least you got a dolla. I won $110 on VP over iBP and promptly lost it all on C9 over Dig = =;;

Na`vi are so retarded. They threw Inferno so hard and then they threw the last couple rounds on Nuke. Credit to fnatic for actually capitalizing on Na`vi being dumb, but I don't think fnatic will be able to make it past semis with that showing.

Uh, this tournament is such a disaster. Not only Valve forced two new untested maps into it, they did it one month before the tournament so teams did not have enough time to prepare. This is almost like releasing major patch one month before the TI in Dota. But if that wasn't enough, they made new veto system that adds huge amounts of randomness into the tournament.

And that was only new problems. The tournament format is still awful even though this is the third major. We have BO1 in groups coupled with double elimination instead of round robin, so team can drop out of the tournament or advance from the group after playing just 2 maps. Teams are preparing for months, some of them are coming from another continents, only to play two maps before dropping. After that we have single elimination which is alway influenced by bracket luck.

Yes, I'm frustrated that the team I'm rooting for has dropped out, but this doesn't change the fact that there are multiple extremely serious flaws in their system and approach.

It looks like you are the one being dumb now, or maybe just angry. Do you know what throw is? They never had a lead significant enough to throw. Nowadays, people are spamming the "throw" word without even realizing what it means.

Also, if you are new to CS, different teams are good at different maps. And maps usually give advantage to one of the sides, CT or T. Inferno is Fnatic's best map and it is a CT-sided map. It's not a surprise that they came back and won after switching sides.
Nuke is Na'Vi's worst map. They had to play it because of Valves random map selection process and actually did better than anyone could expect from them.

Navi vs fnatic was really entertaining.
When watching yesterday I was delighted to see cbble being played. Even though it was hella onesided I liked to play it in cs:s but only few teams agreed to the map. The new aspects to the map seemed quite good.
