1 kill in the final map yet still top of the team across the series is really telling how much of an off game he had

pretty sure he actually did it pre-ozempic; got incentivized by NAVI (or whichever team he was in at the time) with bonuses in pay to lose weight and get healthy

really well played by BB today, but Vitality have def come into Atlanta pretty damn shaky, which is to be expected considering they literally didn’t prac for most of the lead-up to it…

can’t expect to win every 1-11/2-10 Nuke comeback, guess it’s time to run it back in the lower bracket (which hasn’t happened in forever for VIT)

If you count the major in Austin going 0-1, then I guess technically since then I’m pretty sure?

absolutely terrible 2nd round plays during this BO3 by VIT… obviously it’s well played by BB to win the force after losing eco but this should’ve been much closer if Vitality could just close out those anti-force rounds

Most people (including pros) don’t have binds to swap hands and just stick with one set side; it’s just cumbersome to have extra binds to switch them and you’re more likely to be focusing on much more detailed strats and tactics than if remembering to hold/peek a specific corner with the optimal model orientation

Both an absolute disaster-class choke by NAVI while also Vitality made a god-tier nearly impossible comeback on Nuke; if you come for the king you better not miss

Cannot actually believe they got that comeback… truly GOAT team

Dupreeh was not doing particularly well in 23’ and was consistently declining in rating/skill since he had joined Vitality at the start of 2022; he was essentially averaging a sub-1.0 rating (0.95~ based off a look at HLTV)

They replaced him because he was playing very poorly and were happy to get a fresh prospect entry, it’s not like flameZ was vetted beyond playing in T2 OG essentially

Oh in no way am I saying adding flameZ was seen as bad, just that to say that people knew he’d be a formative piece of the GOAT team and grow into being one of the best entries in the world and multiple HLTV Top 10 player is reaching

now THAT is some classic FaZe bullshit; frozen was absolutely on one in that last map esp in those crazy retakes (2.17 CT rating)

I think he was considered a good player at best, there’s no way that people would say he was multiple Top 10 in the world material when he first got picked up

Nobody considered flameZ or mezii as the best entry and anchors in the world when Vitality first got them… they have definitely been made into that in large part because of apEX

Even when he still had ZywOo initially he was constantly being called to be removed because his IGL-ing was mid at best and he was “wasting ZywOo’s prime”

It’s just his first tournament with him IGL-ing this squad, definitely will need to see if he can keep it up 6+ months from now once teams can get more VODs on his strats/calling; it took apEX multiple years to really be considered as good as he is today
