Whenever G2 actually plays well its such a treat to see their players shine. I just wish they were more consistent.
I agree with this but it's hard to play that well all the time. It's the cost of the focus and brain power that's needed. They lowkey should be drinking nootropics, low dose caffeine, and sugar
@@JustifiedRidiculousOly Im confident they already are
G2 sucks! They won only because Astralis sucks aswell! This G2 can't win against a team like Vitality for exemple
@@JustifiedRidiculousOlyesports pros drink energy drinks, around 80-100 mg of caffeine
@@DodusNetz They deserve it
G2 just went from almost losing to EG at Blast Premier Fall Groups 2023 to making it to the grand finals of Cologne 2023. I don’t fucking understand this team at all.
G2 dont Care about Blast Banana Cup anymore
Yep, that's G2 for you.
It all depends of if Hunter shows up
Hooxi is either room temp IQ or 200 IQ, no in between
yeah, being a G2 fan must be hard 😂
Hunter went missing for a while and G2 struggled... now that he's back with his former consistency G2 looks unstoppable again.
I would say he went missing because he misses old JackZ 😢😂
@@dabienlimwhat is blud waffling about 💀💀
@@dabienlimJackz was only good for 2 years, yes he had very good chemistry with Hunter but he became quite inconsistent once Niko joined, probably due to conflicting roles
H00xshittalker always goes missing tho
@@joramsim i jokingly stated that so calm down
Its crazy how when Niko is in terminator mode he'll take any 1v1 doesnt matter how disadvantaged it is for him
niko is very scary with 1v1's he is very competent with his aim
@@selong6013 unreal observation from your side
it's sad because in an alternative universe, he would have been the GOAT but there's zywoo and S1mple ahead of him
@@dinkin_flicka14 big difference is that he's a rifler alot harder to carry as a rifler but he has also choked a couple of times
@@jonnyw6642
I would rather take his opinion over obnoxious sarcastic a$$ any time
Hunter is one of the smartest players ever. He has so much unreal rounds on T side. So fun to watch.
They have said that hunter really enjoys watching demos, and you can tell
i think that's why g2 are not consistent .unreal rounds are one time thing
Hunter is G2’s most consistent player though
@@kristiqnevtimov6748 when g2 is winning when they are loosing he is that consistent🤣
@@ArunKumar-bp5lo lol, Not consistent yet winning tier 1 trophies....a "one time thing" doesnt win you katowice and cologne vs top teams in the same year buddy. Your CS knowledge clearly lacks.
Beautiful commentary by the British duo!! Well done Harry and Hugo!!
Really? I find him unbelievably annoying. Everything is so over-the-top and forced, unbearable to listen to
@@spinnact I can see how you think that and understand you're bothered but personally it doesn't affect me. Normally I hate this kind of constant hype but for some reason I tolerate it with H+H, idk why
100% good grief it’s annoying
Harry and Hugo is always a banger. Although I prefer when the match have less stakes so they have space to make more jokes.
Much better than scrawny and launders, those are the worst and yet they cast important matches
That Inferno game. Niko carried the whole team. The way he took control over banana every round at T side is fucking insane.
This IEM is seriously entertaining, amazing plays from every team and making flashy plays back to back
G2 Proved that Blast banana cups are irrelevant and they used that as a bootcamp
If they do not win the final tomorrow then they have not proved anything other than Blast tournament was very important for be able to win Cologne.
blast banana cups have better production than esl
@@rarinth Production but blast partner 8 teams Lmao Even Valve had to say something about this partner teams XDD
@@TopOnTopsyeah but esl had a bsod incident, in a fucking major
i can agree with the partner teams, they need to be abolished
@@rarinth wanna talk about BLAST Major incidents?
I never really have a favorite team but I love this G2 lineup. They have that championship energy in them, they just need to keep it consistent.
@@trollolol705 I have this feeling jks is going to be the deciding factor if they win or not
G2 mentally seems so switched on rn.
Even chad hooxi is dropping m4 to niko and using deagle himself. 😂
Hooxi is so mood😂
Yeah i think they upped their mental game hooxi always screaming now 😂😂
hooxi even top fragged in some maps
Niko is such a fckin beast
Right? My fav player for many years. When he’s on he’s unstoppable
@@beatsntoonsI am too his biggest fan.
Only time he was out of form was when he was iglibg for faze.
Otherwise he is always on his beast mode.
It will be great Grand Final to watch. ❤
ENCE vs G2 is gonna be 🔥
I like Snappi over Hooxi in the battle of the IGL's. Snappi is the best IGL today along with Cadian imo.
But every other position I like G2. Either way I'm hoping for a competitive banger!
Cadian tilted big time yesterday tho, lol.. he may have good calls but it doesnt matter if he can't perform
@@PrivateJoker0119he was the only one performing yesterday
Sunpayu vs monesy will be 🔥
Sunpayus is dangerous. Niko aware of sunpayus performance vs vita
cadian hooxi and apex are the most toxic igl lmao, they shouldnt be winning anything at all based on their attitude, skill-wise, probably apex is the only one who stands out, most of them basically depended on their teammates if they ever win something, not because of their so called igling or call strats. u can be the best igl but if u play w 4 idiots u are just in another silver game lol
1:40 "Sick Ilya!"
Is No one gonna talk about Monesy, which done so many important entry frags, which have caryed most part of the Game.
Congrats an his Debut. Just a so underrated Person.
He's going up for the 2nd MVP in his career just at 18 years old. Insane. This is the future s1mple that's for sure and maybe even stronger because the skill ceiling always gets higher.
@@cloke3076niko might win mvp ngl
Blame Niko he's in his terminator mode
@@cloke3076zywoo won top1 with 5 MVP in his first pro year at 18, what will m0nezy do this year compared to that ?
@@skryyper6706 firstly: he was 19.
Secondly, those MVP's were with teams from all over top 40 HLTV and there were just 8 teams so he basically smurfed on tier 1.5.
Thirdly: the year is not over.
AND Finally and most importantly: Where the fuck did I mention Zywoo in my comment? I was denying that Zywoo had better debut at his first year of Proscene? or said that monesy is doing better than Zywoo in his prime?
If you are defending Zywoo each time when there's a monesy in conversation, then that means that you either salty or actually feel that my words have some truth in them so you decide just be a hater. Gtfo.
EDIT: Also I've just checked that Zywoo already had some experience before entering Vitality. He was playing tier-3 for 3 years before entering T1, meanwhile monesy started his way only in the mid of 2020. So monesy is still younger at every single thing. GTFO x2.
Hooxi bowing after going 7-18 in the win on ancient might be the funniest thing I've ever seen i love him
XDDD
Bc he called pretty well against a very strong Astralis on Ancient...doesnt have to frag hard as a IGL tho
Was watching with my bro and said the exact same ting
same hahaha
G2 probably have the most skilled team on scene unfortunately they lack on keeping consistency
c9 and vitality
hooxi is still the weak point of g2, but his improvement is more than incredible.
They need to kick hooxi
@@N00000OOOOBYc9? Never
@@pauluspuliano6278and they’re supposed to replace HooXi with who? Another IGL from the tier-2 scene?
In CSGO, you cant say that you hate or love a specific team. It's a beauty of watching teams raising up and preparing for more.
For now, ENCE is so intriguing to watch, it gonna be a great Grand Final between two team.
I do not know what skill SunPayus has. He is the most satisfied awper to watch right now.
The miracle of CSGO is that, even you have knowledge for a decade, you still see a new play style raising and wiping out all other current Stars of CSGO.
G2 always banger game. I love this team man. Hope they'll win final.
*cough cough* Ok guys. You know the drill. As a G2 fan, I expect G2 will lose 0-3 tomorrow. We set expectations low so we dont get disappointed okay?
Still, we ate good tonight and we sure as hell should appreciate that 😊 Hunter MVP stayed solid for 2 maps. Let's go boys!
niko rating was 1.41 on both map and hunter was 1.39 on both
@@nyowgeleu848 i respect if anyone disagrees tbh, hard to pick between the two, but Hunter saved more rounds imo, even despite that insane 2nd round ace, Niko definitely opened up a lot of rounds but Hunter closed more.
But hey, as long as they get the W im fucking happy :D
dont look at the raiting too much, some guys only get kills that dont matter and have good raiting. I also think that Hunter did a little bit better than Niko this time.
@@Pyxyty i saw ur name on live stream chat box🤣🤣,u r on fire in the chat😮😮😮😮😂😅
ENCE's map pool does look a bit more solid for an upcoming BO5 rn, but "0-3" when Kovacs are in the Grand Finals? Ain't no way, lol, that's unrealistic even for the maximum lowered expectations. It's not 2021 anymore with AmaNeK/JACKZ & they're not facing 1.47 rating s1mple, there will be a great fight 💪🏻
Man I REALLY hope G2 wins tomorrow!! want to see our boys hoist that trophy and have their name written in it!
GL FROM ENCE! LETS HAVE A FIGHT!
I hope g2 choke their way to home again
@@J1M95 good luck man! Its gonna be a great game from both teams💯
@@ShawnFX Yeah! Waiting on SunPayus and Niko and seeing what they can do.
@@funtsii6667Choking, just like what you do in your games :P
BUZZ was the weak link in this semi final
Device did all he could, buzz wasn't feeling it, i thought astralis would kill g2 on ancient, but as soon as they lost that i knew its 2-0
Buzz is young, needs experience and consistency
Absolutely, but oozing potential and I think he did well for his first big LAN.
Stehr Buzz and Borup needs to step up asap. This team cannot have 3 supporting cast. How is borup so mid 😢 they need to train him.
@@akashp01 dawg did you not watch any of the games? its crazy you call borup mid just because he isnt dropping 30 every game. its not like he is taking all the boring spots. so the stars can shine. seems like you dont really know how teamcs works
@@Br4mVAL The meta is 4 star players, however you want to put it, you wont defeat top5 without it consistently,
Dev1ve does his part, BlameF is activated if atleast 3 others are performing well because he is baiter no.1, unless there is teammates baiting for him, he is back to spawn saving.
Buzz is inexperienced but he shows glimpses of what is possible, that round when they were playing 3v5 and buzz just causally jumps mid window, even lmg players would know better, but the stress and inexperience got to him.
Stehr plays as a supporting cast, he is not dropping the big numbers needed.
borup is consistently bottom tanking.
how do we expect this team to defeat top 5 consistently ? Cant outcall your opponents everytime, they will counter eventually.
@@akashp01you certainly do not know how Astralis works, watch their 2h podcast video where b0rup talks about being entry fragger and giving infos
DONA at 5:13 let’s go!!!!!
The final will be hot.
😏
23:58 🤩 divine
32:53 🤨😉😏
Monesy raw skill is just out of this world. And this guy is only 18 years old😭. He is gonna be unstoppable in couple years
“Give him an inch , he’ll take a mile” 😎👌
GG to Astralis, they fought a good fight, and Congratulations G2! If you Maintain this Focus and Calmness ,no doubt you will lift that Trophy 🏆 Goodluck boys! Lets go G2!!!
BlameF staying last alive, doesn't matter when you read it
when Niko is feeling it on T side there is no player in the world who can stop him... that Inferno was special
When Niko is feeling himself, no angle is safe to hold.
The flash to complete the ace clutch is so cool calm and collected, Niko really feeling it this tournament
BaitF is god of bait and exit frags
The commentary on this series was top tier 🙌
These castors are doing phenomenal job! Really appreciate, half of that sport. 🥇
They’re awful to listen to
@@beatsntoonsL
@@Ketopraks you're confusing me with your Dad. But you can call me Daddy.
@@beatsntoons L
@@beatsntoons L
I’m a fan of Dev1ce but their run was kind of a fairytale just like Mach1ne said. He had a Top tier performance this tourney, but unlike his old team, this new one can’t back him up that much.
I f-ing love this roaster. best of luck tomorrow!
well its good exposure for the young guns of astralis, GG G2
can anyone tell me how many audience was there in this arena?
hunter always surprises us in times of despair
If Hooxi is not an igl and can focus on fragging this guy is as good as Ropz.
That Niko ace on inferno was wild
Even James is Known for his saving, but BlameF is just straight up baiting the entire team, just to call off 2 on 3 with a min left. 🤡
Bro i thought am the only one who sees him baiting and only getting save kills. His kills have no impact they just there for the rating, very useless. Next Jame but atleast Jame saves AWP 😂😂😂
Call him RatF 🧐
faze 3-2 navi in finals, i call it
Sure, maybe NIP will win
@@CryMeARiver2 npc:
best final imo
@@hayrdrbilader2192 🤡🤡🤡
NIKO :O 23:44
good save on the spoiler in the first 3 seconds there :)
Great try for Astralis, Im really liking this moment where Device gets back to his old team, their matches recently has made me love Astralis once again. Rooting for g2 to win it in the finals!
Made to semi with a bunch of inexperince teammate so that is very good for a new roster
@@kitogg7292 Fr, even beaten heroic 😯
If GodPayus win im happy , if Niko win im happy .
gg to both teams!
Igl duel today is gonna be sick snappi vs hooxi
device: Cologne, here I come.
NiKo: haha, no.
somebody explain pls y the crowd boos everytime swani is on display????
The parasocial joy I experienced watching JKS beat his former, toxic teammate BaitF, even after BaitF did his little Ace celebration made this win for G2 that much more enjoyable for me
BlameF baited his whole team straight out of tournament.
Even the awper ( device) is dying first than BlameF 🙄
BaitF you mean
He leaded the team till semi-finals but yes, is a baiter and Astralis did horrible, because you win the whole tournament or you are trash, csgo delusional fans.
BOTF KEKW KEKW KEKW 🤡
He only gets bait kills and save kills what a bot. He is always the last 1 and has 0% clutch win like wtf
Aleksib will never be a good IGL like Hooxi
продолжай в том же духе
Now I understand why ppl call him baitf 😂
The problem with inconsistent teams is a dominant grand final and a boring one.. wud love to see a close game and definitely overtimes and good plays
I disagree
@@DaveBallOW ok
G2 played great, I looking forward to the finals!
G2 is like the slightly better version of Ence(on paper) so this will be their grand final to lose. It shouldn't be too hard for them if they can just keep their composure and not choke again
BlameF is just getting bait kills and Save kills. He is always saving maybe he is trying to be the next Jame
nice fight
Does anyone know the name of the song that plays at 34:14?
Bingo bango bongo bish bash bosh
Hooxi is the Better than Aleksib without a Doubt Especially if G2 wins Cologne
I'm richer than 5 years before, specially if I win the lottery
@@ignaciohiguero1616such a stupid argument. You winning a lottery if 100 people participate( a bare minimum , which is rarely the case) is 1/100.
Whereas, g2 have won the games and placed themselves in the finals.
They can either win or loose now( with half the probability of winning)😁
That’s not a great argument because IGL tactics aren’t universal. Tactics that may work amazingly with one team may not work with another. Is Hooxi a better fit for G2? Yes. Is he better as an IGL than Aleksib overall? That is debatable.
people easily forget that when aleksib joined the team, jackz was struggling
G2 didnt have jks
and monesy was a newly signed player at that time
he was still learning how to communicate in eng and play at tier 1 level
I still feel if you give aleksib this team when monesy is much more experienced he would've also made this roster win some tournaments
@@rishabh9627 Cope
many mistakes
R1- borup, R8- buzz spam not holding ct smoke(r1 hunter was hiding), R9- borup mid control lost , R10 borup 1v1 , R14 3v2 bad post plant, R24 BlameF moved to b leaving Aopen at40sec, R26 borup didn't clear after post plant, inferno lost two rounds to almost halfbuy deagle
Buzz didn't show up today :(
They really studied Astralis' ancient, had a read on everything, lovely stuff.
Push mid that it for ancient u got mid neither ct or t can counter that since u can go A or b
Back to reality for Astralis
i like the rebound flash
37:13 Trilluxe und Segalson ❤
39:00 nice
hooxi is so humble. not getting kills so his teammates can have them, what a great man
i like how after the game they yell all the one-liners they didnt say during the game.
34:17 einfach segalson in der crowd x)
44:01 looks like god zeno is going to wipe thier universe out and they hug for a last time
As a professional device hater, I'm saddened he made it this far 😢 but niko too op when he plays to his level
how can you even hate device?
He is a simple simp (probably)
@@paullink9752ig, his success and his consistency made him hate hin unfortunately
How can you hate device? He's a cool guy who doesn't shit talk like s1mple
16:19 Trilluxe
lmao we just needed hunter all the time
Final will be amazing. Ence VS g2... nice
Жаль что астры проиграли. За ж2 сейчас нет желания болеть.
Device is back.... to choking semifinals
never seen Astralis fans are this level of happines....altough they lost but still its been couple of years they never been in the arena
G2 are SAVAGE
Device got bore and tired nobody got his level I am astralis hater I meant king astralis hater What a iconic Legend device is well done
24:20, even KJ is a fan of csgo
i dont know, but it has to be niko this time
niko doesnt carry = struggle
Niko, Hunter, M0nesy all pretty much same kills
If niko carries, they lose. If hunter/monesy/jks carries. They win lol
@@watergames8037if hooxi top frags they win
@@watergames8037 u r right because they belong to “late game” play, when they can decide win or lose the round even in 3v5 or 1v2
@@watergames8037bs at the finest he carried em 2021 they sold him when he carries and they step up they win stuff
G2 didn’t even have to try, MonESY playing with Dev1ce, Astralis made a brilliant move dropping Gla1ve and the other one lol but they haven’t replaced them with better players, Buzz is fine, nice eye candy 🥰
Astralis rect so sweet to see
G2 looking really strong. Faze, Vitality and Astralis all games won in covincing way. Niko, hunter, m0nesy, jks all in form and hooxi solid calling. They are scary to play against.
G2 should be consistent
niko goat 23:52
39:29 is that Xyp9x
man the duel berettas gotta go 3-5 kills every pistol on ct
duelies too strong at close quarters. thought cz was the best at that
Noob gun, only BOTS with no skill and aim like BOTF use that
Sunpayus owns Zywoo and Niko owns dev1ce
nice
🚧 S P O I L E R B L O C K🚧
они заслужили
Man, Don't let niko entry.
That beer snake though hahahaha
