Thanks for having someone like Anders in the show! People who want pros in the show really underestimate how much interesting some conversations talent can have.
Dude, as a Brazilian, it's so frustrating seeing the BR fanbase in general fucking up sometimes and getting this hate, I honestly don't know why some people are so aggresive in our community, the kng "prove it or I will kill you" thing was the peak of embaressment. NA recognized for being bad, EU recognized for being good, and BR recognized for being agressive. sadge.
I think Furia and the development of BR and the fall of NA has probably shifted that perception. I'd say BR is more flairy and free flowing which I enjoy watching.
I like that valve changed something, playing ancient in mm and maybe faceit will be pure horror, there are so many green/grey custom models.... I watch pro cs more then i play cs myself, so looking forward to watch something new.
I usually only watch HLTV episodes in the morning with coffee, but today I listened while baked as fuck. And man oh man was this a great podcast. This is what Joe Rogan should be. You guys are some insightful folk, thank you Prof, Anders, Striker, and SPUNJ :)
SpunJ spitting FACTS! Stop it with all the negativity in the gaming comunity We WaNT cHaNgE aNd uPDaTes, deAd gAMe Chages happen, people: NO NOT THIS dead game valve doesnt care about the game. Like wtf, why cant people ever just stay openminded. I love this change, its so interesting and bold for them to do this and I cant wait for the same thing to happen as happened on vertigo, weekly changes, interesting esports matches and everything that comes with a new map. As much as I dont mind what map they choose, i do have to say I personaly expected anubis to come in, just because it was one of the few comunity maps that made it out of scrimmage. Sadly they took it out completely and since no comunity map has made it back after going out of scrimmage I doubt we'll see it again sadly. Biome, abbey and anubis were 3 of the most amazing maps the game has had recently.
Anders 100% watched LEMMiNO video called 'Extra Ordinary Until Proven Otherwise'. From what he said all the cases seemed to be discussed in this video, pretty interesting to watch since he is one of the best content creators on youtube.
I agree with the guys, I dont usually watch certain stream for the broadcaster. Most of the time it's for the match. That being said, I often pick a stream with the broadcasters I like if I have the option (which I have between danish or english spoken streams). Broadcast talent and desk talent mean SO much to my experience of the stream
As a casual player, I can say that 3kliksphilip and Warowl helped me discover and fall in love w the competitive scene. Unfortunately, the competitive scene is not doing the same favour for the casual scene.
If y'all wanna take a deep dive into that ending talk Anders had, there's a fantastic video by Kurtzgesagt called "The Egg", highly recommend it. Also, I was here because I was promised simulation talk. What is this...Counter...Strike... thing y'all were talking about :p
At 1:25:53 Anders is talking like the map is made out of cardboard but its not. The whole A site is almost unbangable and sure there are these two wooden walls at B but if u dont stand exactly behind the wall in some cubby you wont get wallbanged there. If u wanna argue this point u could do it on Vertigo, as they said, but not on Ancient the map mad out of many stone cubbies.
The "Valve is communicating by Updates" is such a bad point, I'm very open to change but a couple of easter eggs in an Operation don't substitute a PR department Really enjoyed the rest of the podcast though
Imagine playing on Ancient with a troll in your team who just blocks one of these narrow doors and just paralyse his team. It's going to be an interesting experience in the lower ranks
T entrance to showers in Train? Going A long as T in Dust 2? Ladder in Vertigo? Mid in Mirage? B apps in Mirage? A apps in Mirage? Apps in Inferno? Connector in Overpass? Monster or B water tunnel in Overpass?
EDIT: 1:53:21 Prof says it first. NVM. Looking at the map layout in the loading screen it feels like a valorant map. So many cubbies so many corners and stuff and the "safe" rotation just looks so damned long. In fact the t spawn looks a lot like a spawn you'd see in valorant where you commit to a site and are screwed if you decide to rotate late into the round because of how long thedistances are.
Personally for me the casting matters a lot in the game.. I bad/average caster can take the fun out of the best of the games.. i look for those reactions they have in the big moments and it kinda resonates with me.. we need better tier 2 casters imo to make it more fun at every level and not just have to rely on alex, chad and anders semmler all the time for T1 tournaments.
same, if a game/stream has casters that I don't think portray the game in an interesting way I wont be as inclined to pay as much attention, eg the dhm b stream that has those guys, the main caster on that stream doesn't keep me particularly interested as much as machine or ander for example
Play match making for Valve to gather data? Why would I consider playing an inferrior service compared to what has been available for five or more years.
I would love to try out ancient but I had a 32min queue time so I gave up. Also my friend says its impossible to play with his colorblindness so idk maybe Valve could do something about that.
Anders says it's easier/better to transition from an influencer to a broadcast talent than vice versa. Well... that's not coming from one of the most popular casters in esports whose voice and face transcended his casting. Anders even has way more twitter followers than fl0m
Do we know when will the first ancient pro match occur? 'Cause I've been looking around on hltv and all the tournaments still have train even those that are going to be played on September...
@@Professeur_CS "The action in the Swiss stage kicks off on June 3 and will feature the new competitive map pool, where Train is replaced by Ancient." - Professeur 2021-05-05
I don't care how competitively viable this map is right now. Maybe it's the best map in CS history. But it's the ugliest map that has ever been introduced into the game. People will complain about old cobble, and old train, but this map takes the cake of looking like a pile of dog.
1:24:45 you will have DOTA Battlepass debacle last year. Story: people cried about new recycle system in TI9 battlepass is worse than TI8 one on reddit. Valve changed the battlepass with that opinion. Surprise surprise... turn out TI9 one is actually better and then reddit flamed each other and Valve for listening to dumb people on reddit. TL:DR don't let Valve listen to reddit too much.
It's not terrible not good either in terms of the actual map design but the optimisation is abhorrent I normall6 get 150 fps on most maps my computer isnt amazing but on ancient I get 60fps and I've heard people even with high end PCs getting massive frame drops.
No SPUNJ I wont play ancient because its an awful map, and valve are not paying me to play test, if they want to setup a scheme where people play test for them then have to pay for that, otherwise I will not play anything they add until they get it to a sufficient quality standard. Also I'm not willing to play that 64tick trash. The reason people dont say "oh thats interesting I wonder how this will play out" is the fact that the maps are added in a state that basically means they are no competitively viable, after 20 years of CS and nearly a decade of CSGO, you'd think by now they could make a competent map from the start but no as usual Valve show how inept they are at every given opportunity.
Playtest a map that felt from the beginning as if there are a thousand angles to check, that it was more fit for casual play.. no thanks, Spunj. I'd rather play some map that feels like it has a place in the game.. like Cache, Aztec or.. how about Tuscan?

If only my fps not a total dogshit on that map, I'll playtest it
theyre gonna optimise it soon enough lmao
Make sure to reboot your game. If you were on a different map before ancient it's dogshit, after a reboot it seems fine.
@@PkPvre ahh never tried this thanks dude
i wanted and asked for aztec but i guess ancient is close enough hehe
also first ancient game i played had 3 cheaters so nice.
@@megamanlinkfan 5 for me
It is supposed to be successor to aztec, its so dumb for them to not call it aztec2 like dust2. Also knowing nade lineups is not cheating
Got a 100% winrate on ancient on faceit 10, cant complain.
Do we know when will the first ancient pro match occur? 'Cause I've been looking around on hltv and all the tournaments still have train even those that are going to be played on September...
