Some Thoughts about the Bleed & Legija Situation: As many probably know, Lejija used to be a CS pro player. He played a big part of his career with and under an IGL called gob_b. They founded a team called BIG together, which was for a long time known as one of the most structured teams and slow teams. This might explain their hesitancy and slow decisionmaking, as well as him calling a timeout for seemingly no reason, just because the match plan wasn't followed exactly. What i don't understand tho, is the lack of team coherency and their inability to play around a star player (yay?). BIG used to be world famous for their executes, utility and teamplay. They also used to have a player called Xantares who was their absolute star player, and they managed to build the perfect system around him, to make him shine, so i don't really understand why it's not possible here. TLDR: Legija's weaknesses can kinda be explained by his past in CSGO, but his strengths don't really seem present in Bleed.
I’ve only known about Legija this year, and only seen his stuff from this year, so what I’m about to say is extremely biased and based off probably the worst, least consistent part of his career. I legit have no confidence when I hear him talk. I loved watching yay with optic, became a fan of the game in 2022, and am a diehard paper boy. When legija was saying zest and retla were the answer and he was feeling confident, my confidence literally dropped. It sounded like he was just regurgitating what the fans wanted to hear, and then they lost terribly. Running solo harbor. No other coach, not even alecks, has ever trusted a solo harbor comp, at least not in vct. I feel like Legija doesn’t have great ideas, and when the ideas were proven to be terrible he just went standard.
Simple Xantares literally invented Xantares peek. The man who could just swing boom get 2 kills and open site. It's basically the Paper Rex style but just Xantares. Bleed has NO ONE that can do that.

It doesn't matter though everything will matters when they will face each other on finals again coz I don't think geng played like just how they played against them in kick off finals and in madrid every player is not up to the mark
@@ishantD The same argument could be made for prx, d4v4i and jinggg didnt really stood up, and i think it has to do with how little prep time they got with jinggg
Geng threw hard bcz that draft is highly defensive so if u don't get minimum 8 on defense you are probably doomed and on attack it is good for 5v5 retakes but prx won't let u enter site with 5 man considering their playstyle🤷♂️
Liquipedia shows the tie breaker rules, and i believe the playoff seeding decisions. Thanks for producing Kurt :) I didnt know that Kurt also produced VCT, thanks Kurt :)
chobra's laugh sparks immense joy also thank you kurt :) (also kurt pls bring back the vaguely distant open mic if possible, unless i just haven't noticed you laughing at stuff the past few episodes for some reason)
"cloudy rumors" about mibr: they literally posted all the drama on their channel, all of the conversations when they lost and so on. You just need to learn portuguese I guess (or ask someone that know)
I don't know but what ever they say, always the opposite happens. They said c9 is super team, they choked. They said eg is a clown team, they were champions. They mocked KRU, they won LCQ. They didn't belive sen will win masters, they said Lev will explode, they are right the most strongest team in America's
Leviathan definitely looked better but everyone is glazing them waaay too hard rn for winning because they have the best player in the world playing the best map in history
1:08:26 truer things has never been said, trash talking and trolling is fine but Indians take things too far all the time no matter what sports it is,as a fellow Indian i always feel bad 🥹
Why is it always "it took Aspas heroics for LEV to win" and never "it took John QT heroics to keep the loss close" 🤔🤔🤔 Seems like a double standard TBH.
@@cordofwood6569 Aspas was on 30 in round 22. John Qt doesn't start getting insane 4k clutches and Aspas is still 10 away from the kill record and well within an expected Aspas performance.
Aspas would have been well within an expected Aspas map at like 30 kills if JohnnQT didnt get an ace clutch in round 21. 13-8 nobody's saying LEV barely beat Sen even with Aspas breaking the kill record.
Mimi just has the weirdest hate boner for c9. If they do well, she cant admit it and jut calls it a fluke and dismisses it. When they eventually lose a series its a massive "i told you so!!" She was doing this last year even when they were the best team in americas
Wilkinson just has the weirdest hate boner for Sen. If they do well, he cant admit it and jut calls it a fluke and dismisses it. When they eventually lose a series its a massive told you so!!" He was doing this last year even when they were the best team in americas
@@astar2394??? Ethan and com were playing some of the best initiator at the time and are still top tier. Jaw was arguably the best raze in the world and also crazy on smokes. Boosty was inconsistent but some games he dominated. EG was full of really talented players.
Unmedicated Bren hosting is truly magical.

Xantares is an aggressive peeker from what I remembered. Yay is extremely passive and calculated when taking his duels.
Keep sliggy please!

Amazing thumbnail btw
Appreciate that 3D gooning's impact on this show will never be lost despite their tragic loss
Just found out 3D Gooning is banned/suspended and I retract my statement in solidarity
Bren said hell right at the beginning of the show
(Not sure if youtube counts that as a curse word)
3 hours later the conclusion I'm coming away with is...Doug plays the drums
The thumbnail looks like a Star Wars poster with Bren as the big villain

YES please have Sliggy on more like this for Americas as well as EMEA. I wish he was a full time member
He is on very often; basically a full time member
i want him for pacific as well

Bro Aspas dropped 47 kills JohnQT may have had some clutch rounds but Aspas was incredible that entire map
Because aspas was way more wdym lol!

As for C9, I think OXY is insane, and Xeppa is consistent. But no other players are significant.

I could watch 3 hours more.. lol
Hell no. I could watch hours of this banter.
