It's a *very* good lineup, but they did struggle against CLG. Not sure if their calls and strats are good enough yet, but they have potential to be top5 again.

they destroyed TSM tho like 4-0 in total

That's very true.

I'm honestly most excited about nV vs. C9 (hopefully finals but we'll see), seeing as nV just did what C9 did to get to the top tier. We could end up having an NA vs EU grudgematch finally :D

Yeah I think Adren is the only player that stricly needs to go in favour of another IGL

Hiko's masterplan is obv to cruise around the lower tier teams to find talent and then team up with some of the guys that might be unbanned


Hiko is not good enough to play on a top tier NA team anymore.


Hiko's performance with Flipside completely proves you wrong.


How so? He had a couple of good matches but outside that he hasn't done anything impressive since the end of his days at cloud9. Most people put him and skadoodle at the top of their top5 players in NA after the whole iBP scandal and assumed hiko was just waiting to join his new version of a dream team. He was insanely hyped before joining Nihilum and didn't even do great on that team. Individually he's still a good player, but as a teammate he is toxic and has problems with everyone. There's only 1 top tier team in NA atm and that's cloud9 and he'll never end up on it because he has issues with too many people there. He's just going to be bounced around middle tier teams and continue to be mediocre on them until his career ends.

Yea the one major problem I see with Hiko is always his attitude and not his skill. He does give the impression to be a money-grabber and a bit "toxic". That being said, we can't really know for sure, as he always wears his "stream personnality" when he streams.

I think we can know for sure just going by what NA pros have said about Hiko. It's a well-known story that he's incredibly two-faced and a liar.

Countless people have confirmed it already and hes part of the reason Nihilum fell apart. Hiko was always a dick from what I remember.

Yeah, you can't just have a problem with people on every team you play on unless you are the problem.

This, It's sad that it basically HAS to be C9 but it can be anyone of the EU teams and still be an epic fight. Go C9!

I remember during the whole Hiko super team fiasco, Hiko expressly said that Ska did not want to join Liquid and that's why they wanted to get their own sponsor. Then in an interview with adreN a bit later, adreN said that Ska did want to join Liquid, but Hiko was the one who didn't want to. And honestly, I trust adreN more than I do Hiko.

I heard that story, too. But why is TL then interested in him? I mean TL gives me always the vibe that personality is as important as skill if you want to join the team. Why get a mediocre player who on good days may or may not be one of the best players in NA but who is known as a extremely toxic player and liar?

I see like everyone else that TL CS:GO needs to change. But I prefer to cheer for a mediocre extremely incosistent line-up of TL instead of a TL line-up with a player who can't represent the team because he personifies the exact opposite of what TL stands for

btw, ryx from Tempo Storm just tweeted, "prepare your minds, some crazy shit is about to happen this week #NACS" then immediately deleted his tweet.

Looks like it's time for NA Shuffle 2K15 part 3.

Coincidence that this happens at the same time as the Dota 2 Shuffle? I think not. Prepare your bodies. EG Dota TI5 champions switching to CS:GO (instead of RPG's).

Speaking of shuffles, one of the things that Valve is doing with Dota 2, is that they're going to enforce transfer deadlines. To my knowledge, this doesn't happen in CS:GO, but could we see Valve enforcing the same type of transfer deadlines?

Kinda feel sad about TS, they were doing quite alright and were improving quite a bit, they had the potential to beat CLG and secure a spot as the 2nd best NA team, moreover they fought well against Na`Vi on LAN(granted Na`Vi was doing shit that tournament). Reynad dropped the team iirc because he felt that TS wanted to switch players again and Reynad wants a stable team of maybe not the best players but players who are willing to stick with each other and improve and be a stable team. Unfortunately NA isn't really an environment for that.

Liquid shuffling I understand as they haven't improved in ages from what I feel, TS on the other hand has and was improving but you know, everyday NA shuffling.

In dota terms this is the low tier CIS teams trading players constantly. The established teams don't shuffle players, especially not on the scale of the post TI shuffle.

It's so ironic that JesusHiko seems to be why C9 even has a chance. So funny to think that the catalyst for C9 picking up ska and freak was because hiko left to have a chance to win a major.

JesusHiko's career died for NA's bad play and saved NA from eternal mediocrity.

This is what I heard as well. It seems as though Reynad did all he could to accommodate the players and keep the team together.
