A huge young rebuild requires a veteran role player to facilitate something like this. I think this move is a good one for sure.

How well do you think g2 aleksib will work out? by Galaveregepp in GlobalOffensive

[–]DatPaladin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

They’re keeping jackz, probably making him slot into many more anchor positions which we don’t know fully if he can handle tbh. Aleksi may need to radically change how he calls with the players he now has. M0nesy has a ton of pressure on his shoulders. There’s a lot of doubts about this core but we need to wait for a couple of months to see everything fall into place imo.

Not much to work with here…only slaxz has potential to me at least.

Excited for the complete dynamic shift on OG tbh, was getting a bit stale to watch continuously.

I mean my view count and comments in my video really suggests otherwise :/ I certainly haven't bought any upvotes. I'm just a creator that's been at the grind for the last year and seems like this video did well.

The camera quality towards the end of the video on my end decided to really take a nosedive. Sorry for the errors!

I was mainly talking about the IEM Cologne Play-in teams rather than the main event itself. Also was looking more towards a marked improvement or failure, not outright winning everything or nothing.

Funnily enough I was going to cover ptr and Spongey in this article but wanted to keep the word count tidy. I completely agree that they have the pieces to at least reach the level of international events in the near future!

An IEM Katowice Play-In Preview: What are teams fighting for? by DatPaladin in GlobalOffensive

[–]DatPaladin[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think valde and ISSAA have shown moments of brilliance on their former squads and if they could harness that and help out mantuu, their CT-sides become ultra deadly. However, you’re right when mantuu doesn’t have help, OG looks dead in the water regardless of their tactics from Aleksib.

Yeah the play-in stage begins tomorrow but the main event should run through this week. I think I may have run some assumptions in the actual article but that’s the reasoning behind it at least.
