Would love to have those old LGB times back, anyone of them honestly only gets praise. Rain, jkaem and Rubino are all really good role players and always bring a good mood into the team.
Hmm I actually never gave rain much thought, im a huge karrigan fan, its weird that in esports its acceptable to cheer for a players team rather than a locational team. Anyways im very excited to see how this new roster does!

@@flyingnipple6156 yeah lol especially what scream once said, he was supposed to join the roaster instead of NiKo, but one day before Screams official signing, they got NiKo and FaZe Scream was cancelled. Sad story, especially since if scream wouldve joined faze, he probably would still be around tier 1 cs scene and not in valorant.
@@MAXOHNO Scream was in a hard slump towards his end of csgo. He does better in valorant and thats good for him. Saying scream would be better over Niko is delusional as fuck, because he is 100 times a better player.
yeah he did switch up a lot. you could see against heroic yesterday kjearbye was the 'sacrifice' or the first one in on their T side on mirage. Cold and Kjearbye switched spots on train and it worked really well against Heroic's super aggressive style. Obv Broky and Niko both going 46 a piece with 100+ adr helped a lot too, but i was taken aback by how Kjearbye wasn't shit lol
karrigan is the most unrated player i've seen, he's a gamechanger as i see him, he literally changes the winstreak to his side some or the other way he becomes the one doing weird aim shit but getting the things done, he is a big brain 🔥
Karrigan pointed out the problem of faze t side very clearly. No one wants to entry besides rain on faze.Most of the times when rain does entries and if he dies there is no one to trade him.
Coldzera always played lurk roles and was left to clutching post plants. Niko and coldzera both play very low sense 400dpi 1.55 and its very hard to entry on. you cant 180 both directions with out a reset, you have to have your mouse prepared on a off set on your pad for those movements! Then Broky is an Awper and its a risk to entry awp ever round so Rain has to entry.
@@movingtarget4784 Pretty sure Karrigan said that someone second guessed his IGL role during the major and he said that he doesn't want to IGL if they don't want to listen to him. In that kind of environment it's hard to take leadership and I can't really blame Karrigan for FaZe's slump after the major.
So, he isnt a good igl 🤷♂️. It's like saying zeus/daps isnt a bad igl, they just cant -insert reason(s). Karrigan isnt one to talk shit about other players in interviews. He simply said niko sucks as igl in a nice way.
@@ivarsauzins3715 no. Karrigan didnt say he was good. A good igl would be able to frag and micromanage ie karrigan himself and glaive. Karrigan didnt want to start drama
@@NoobGamer-mh4gj Karrigan straight up said Niko is good :). Dont read too much into it. you just heard what you are hearing on those hltv comments all day long. Do you have any Faze player saying that Niko is bad at IGLing or any top team players saying that?
@@karanshenoy7705 yeah we both are namesake, but if you carefully notice the surname of valens from his Liquipedia profile, the spelling is a bit different from mine. Anyway, it's a win for me being considered as the coach of the only Major winning NA lineup in csgo history :)
FaZe just fixed their roles XD Of course this is still early but promising from the looks of things, Faze looked like a legit top 10 team again since the end of ESL season 12 and the entire IEM NY.
@@flyingnipple6156 He's had his time end at Cloud9 in tatters so idk whether he is still motivated to do it again.Then again I know that he is a solid rifler who can add firepower to the squad.
2:17:00 Good to see some recognition for Taco's role. He may not be playing as he used to, but sometimes people forget he was part of the Brazilian era And before that karrigan talks about the importance of that teammate that fires everyone up. we know that Liquid got better because of those kind of guys (steelega, then Taco, then Stew)
@@jambocj1127 Well,if u watch SK/Lumo back in their era=they dominated with good aim Fallen not really shining with 'tactic' and 'strat',but he's very good with his awp and frag back then So of course most forget about his role as an igl,because he's not that good with tactic/strat
Chad buddy I just wanna say I love u man I love listening to you more and I hope I'd hear you talk more tha machine or pansy when you guys cast since you're tactically sound
Could you try to get one of the remaining Gen.G players? Autimatic would be amazing to hear what the environment was like in Gen.G, and the weird C9 lineups. BnTeT is the best Asian player and I want to know about that scene, and I want to know how koosta is becoming an IGL since he has played under steel, daps, and FNS.
what about C9 Bubzkji? I know him and floppy are friends and it would make quite an interesting mix of young inexperienced players who potentially have a very high skill ceiling
Why don't people understand what a 7 man is? They trade out players and maybe not every player will play in a tournament but someone will always be there to replace anyone
Troy CS has not been about plug and play 7 mans in pretty much its entire history. Having such a stable of players all learn particular strats and team chemistry is not infeasible, but hasn’t really been done in csgo before. Sure Astralis could be the first, but who knows. I see bubzkji, a young player still trying to find his form riding the bench and see a more hand on opportunity to get the experience he needs to improve his game. Plus, with reports of xyp returning back to the roster, it’s not even out of the realms of possibility that es3tag could rise the bench, even with him showing good form.
@@scouthatesrainbows They are rotating the squad around. Xyp will return at Blast Premier fall series. The current lineup will play the RMR event. Though I would love to see Bubzkji back again. Maybe he'll play when Gla1ve takes over IGL again.
Yeah, loads of people from Europe (especially Northern Europe) are amazing at English. Then you have the English ourselves who's knowledge of foreign languages goes about as far as bonjour for most people.

I strongly dislike pansy/spunj and machine together , pansi has become increasingly annoying. cant we just get hugo harry and stunna for all matches thanks
I played a few times against spunj years ago in Perth and he was very smart about the game, not on Karrigans level (not many are), but Spunj definitely has a great tactical mind for the game.

Love hearing karrigan talk about CS. He articulates everything so well.
Yeah, he's a really smart guy and actually got a pretty high education. And overall he's just a really nice person
@@kenobizocker9796 And despite of what people say about him not being that skilled, i think he's very good and dangerous on face to face duels.
@@veraluciabaptista9313 he's definitely not great, but he has his moments for sure
nt karrigan
@@kenobizocker9796 lol l lol
everyone who's played with rain only has praise for him. my fav player❣️
Probably the most hard done by player in FaZe clan, he's stuck around all this time only to get blasted at every opportunity by the fans

let's admit it, they lost the major vs cloud9, skill or luck he was kicked for that.

Getting an ad for CS cheats while watching HLTV content. Incredible. Amazing.
targeted ad bro, u been searching
@@GIGAGRILLE You calling a cheater "bro", u been cheating with other cheater bros.
I got one a while back too, after binging Sparkles' cheating content
Never got one, just saying
"100 Thieves probably not in the conversation" As he said this, Nadeshot released the roster. Rip.
Totally agree with karrigan on the silence of the Heroic players. So many of them are so young, can’t blame them for keeping quiet

comment about how ESL has double the matches yet the same prize pool
Been a fan of Karrigan since 1.6 days ❤️
FaZe just fixed their roles XD
Of course this is still early but promising from the looks of things, Faze looked like a legit top 10 team again since the end of ESL season 12 and the entire IEM NY.
thank you
I think autimatic could be in question for Complexity or Cloud9, ..

I don't think Tim would work with Cloud9 again
Thank you IZ*ONE - why not?
@@flyingnipple6156 He's had his time end at Cloud9 in tatters so idk whether he is still motivated to do it again.Then again I know that he is a solid rifler who can add firepower to the squad.

Yeah, definitely top 3 for me, people tend to forget how good fallen was in his prime

Not that far off considering how much karrigan knows 😅
I played a few times against spunj years ago in Perth and he was very smart about the game, not on Karrigans level (not many are), but Spunj definitely has a great tactical mind for the game.
Well, karrigan himself is far from being #1, soooo....
Together with Fallen and Glave is he is probably the best IGL ever. So wtf are you talkin bout?
Is it just me or has spunj suddenly become deprecating towards everyone he speaks to. Found it super cringey.
