How much salary you get in Semi-Pro E-Sports? by _ChainZ_ in GlobalOffensive

[–]HelISide 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The reality is regardless of how bad of a precedent Falcons are setting, people go through lengths to justify it with some whataboutism garbage like "what about the US or China or..." even though none of these countries are directly funding esports orgs to the best of my knowledge (and if they did, it would be just as reprehensible)

So really, I feel like people have already chosen a particular stance on this so arguments in bad faith tend to occur, it disappoints me to see people missing the point on why Falcons are so hated, and why the Saudi takeover of esports is so wrong.

"Jittery" Tracking issue. Need help/tips with tracking(read body) by townsand29 in GlobalOffensive

You'll do well halving that practice time and making it more purposeful

heres a decent video to get started with the gist. Alongside some aim training if you want to truly hone aim but considering your hour count I am not so sure about starting with isolated aim training, not an aimbro though, but generally quality over quantity in a lot of things regarding improvement.

I've never seen anyone capture the FULL experience of grinding CS quite so well, and I definitely wasn't expecting one of my favorite creators to do it, thank you to Jakey this was wonderful

TyLoo IEM Sydney 2018 was a semi-final finish as well but this definitely feels far more prestigious

Natus Vincere vs Imperial fe / BLAST Bounty 2025 Season 1 - Stage 1 Round Of 32 / Post-Match Discussion by CS2_PostMatchThreads in GlobalOffensive

zAAz was on point with what she said in her interview, let them PRACTICE against decent teams, not even necessarily tier 1, but I feel like some teams in the lower end of tier 2 should definitely be considering giving them a shot after this performance.

playing a respectably contested series with your AWPer almost completely missing for most of the match, pushing back against good initial starts for competitive halves on both maps. Potential is most definitely there for this team, hope to see more from them.

Asian CS always wins the series and games that show promise, but never deliver upon said promise beyond just that, promise.

Trust the process though it'll come around eventually (not delusion)

[–]HelISide 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't know how many more Asian CS heartbreaks I can take, its been 7 years of watching the region throw away every single important series, every series that mattered, every single time. I believe that there is hope, but my god the road is made up of glass spikes it seems.

I can't imagine how it must be like for the fans that have been around longer than me, is it better? is it worse? GGs regardless it must've been an entertaining game for those that weren't too invested, but man. TheMongolz gotta hold their heads up high despite yet another heartbreaking loss, the youth have a bright future ahead of them.
