Surprised NiP won considering they were contending against League and DotA2 teams. I guess the moba voters having to split their votes helped a lot. :D
thats like saying csgo and cod players had to split their votes.

No... because there were two DotA teams and two League teams nominated, whereas only one CS:GO team was nominated and there were no CoD teams nominated for esports team of the year.
Meaningfulness of the awards aside, this category was purely a fans' choice award, so it was surprising to see a CS:GO team win it when we know the mobas are more popular (especially League). You guys should check your cynicism at the door.
In other news: who gives a shit about those awards. I watched a lot of the esea tournament and had a blast. Found out that summit was casting the games and he did an excellent job (when he was actually casting). That neo ace and JW's CZ moves were awesome. I missed the adren round where he actually played well but oh well it happens. Honestly this thread should be jumping for joy over csgo right now and where it is. The boost in popularity lately is HUGE for the game and it's looking like it will keep growing. I'll admit when GO first came out I fucking hated it like source and just wanted 1.6 to remain king of counter strike but I am slowly starting to like it and accept it as being the lead game now.
Plus I'm DMG again and find myself running into other DMG's who seem to never miss their 1ak's again. Will probably get demoted once again. But on the plus side my awp is starting to look like my former self, making some really nice plays and clutches with it again. Always makes me feel better

We would have to see the demo itself. If he was just hovering over it, then he's pulling a flusha.
Also, all these NA invite/pro players spreading rumors about roster shuffles is making me rustle my jimmies. Just tell us what are the roster changes already grrrrrrr.

I'm at 53% because I took an awp shot in the face through those doors already while standing up lol. Immediately ran from spawn to that spot and didn't peek once.

Does she (?) do that every round or only when you sat there? If she does it every round maybe she memorized the spot, but its unlikely to do it only once.

Nope, fire 2 shots, both headshots through the door. It's confirmed walling, you can check out the replay if you want.
so after not playing cs for like 15 years i got the game a week ago when it was on sale (no motivation for dota or sc2 and ive been watching cs tourneys for quite some time now), some quick questions (i checked faq but didnt find answers)
after a couple of games it says: "you have to wait some time until you can play ranked games again" is that normal and if, why ? and is it normal that i get like 1-2 leavers in my team EACH game ? i guess since i just started and am noobing around with other noobs yes, but still ...
but hey, im enjoying it a lot so far ! after not playing for so long its like learning the game all over again (when to throw grenades etc) AND i got my first "tripple kill" last night and defused the bomb right after
how many tl'ers are playing on a regular basis and are teaming up ?

thanks
dunno, the first 8-9 games i hit like absolutely nothing,
if you leave games while in progress you get matchmaking bans (from 1 hour to days, same as in dota2 pretty much) having leavers and such on your team depends on the level of play and probably even more on recent steam sales... if people just bought their 2nd account they are more likely to just leave because they can switch...

To make it more clear, Der Schober, after 10 wins you won't get that delay message anymore about having to wait after 2-3 wins in competitive mode! It's there to discourage smurfing.

In deathmatch it tells you f3 for random weapon at the start but after a while its off and buying time is off almost all the time. Usually you get a random weapon every time you spawn.
