The comeback was almost real. That T side was just atrocious though from eLevate.

Onto Map 2. Stream's still going. Dunno who fudged our calendar but curse them!

Guardian can be soooooo good it's crazy. Unfortunately he's not very consistent. But his 'ups' are UP THERE. Like best CS:GO player alive levels imho.

Hard to determine who's the best player, but he's for sure top 3 cs go awper

As in Kenny Jesper and Ladislav

I was only talking about his 'ups', his moments when he's on-point. Overall, I wouldn't rate him top 3. Too inconsistent!

Both Guardian and JW are quite inconsistent, but I still hold them as the very best awpers

I see your point tho, there is a big difference between on-Guardian and off-Guardian

He's one of the more consistent AWPers actually. AWPers (really, everyone in general) have major ups and downs, but GuardiaN is there alongside kennyS and JW in terms of consistency (and even kennyS and JW have their ups and downs, though kenny's inconsistency is a recent thing). Other than them there's maybe s1mple and Skadoodle who have been relatively consistent AWPers.

Yeah good point. JW's/Guardian's playstyle just can't be consistent I guess. Really fun to watch when they're in their zone tho!

You guys are good players, but 1 major thing I noticed (whether you want to take the criticism or not, all good), are your speed after picks. Strats need to be determined AFTER a pick. You can't just take your time, the rotation is coming. Cut off rotation, punish them if they are in "difficult-to-retreat" positions. This comes with practice scenarios. There are set spots players are usually going to be in when they're playing hard, so you need to play out scenarios as to who penetrates where into the site and it needs to be done quickly.

Just waiting around and being passive is not a valid strategy. Don't just balls out rush, but get your ass in there pretty quickly so you can take the site, and KNOW where everyone is going to stand. Know who's job it is to peek and bait so that your team can trade if they need to.

I think a team needs to learn how to play "properly" first BEFORE ever trying to be spontaneous. Stop trying to do weird stuff, just play straight up. Once you have straight forward play PERFECTED, then getting crazy can be added in later, however your consistency will increase if you have a set way you usually play.

Little fixes guys, and get your confidence back.

You guys are soooo good, I can't wait for when you guys start tearing it up! :D

GOOD LUCK!

So what do you guys think about the new NA meta?
Rushing through smokes without any flashes nor reason, and of course the famous "let's constantly peek in afterplant situations like silvers do".
