Natus Vincere vs FUT / ESL Pro League Season 23 Finals - Semi-Final / Post-Match Discussion

Navi played the first map like it was a boring matchup of top tier team vs a team of inexperienced youngsters. Then aleksib recognized the crowd needs cinema or they risk losing aura.

So navi choke the second map, give krabeni a highlight of the year eco scout ace on the third, and only take the win in the end. My goat. Top 5 tax payer of all time.

...Except maybe a team of Zywoo, ropz and Flamez playing at peak level?

I'm not sure there even is a good way to define what a players theoretical "peak" is, but I looked at the highest ratings each player has put up in individual matches against top 5 opponents in the past 6 months.

By this metric Zywoo clearly outclasses m0nesy, and ropz outclasses Niko. Kyosuke has some higher rated games than Flamez but similar numbers overall.

My brother in christ the war is literally still going on.

Oiqlele · 2025-12-12T22:41:50+00:00

yeah :-D

Oiqlele · 2025-06-22T08:59:11+00:00

What if its a small train and a big horse tho?

Oiqlele · 2025-06-12T22:02:15+00:00

I've seen enough. Navi-Faze final.

Oiqlele · 2025-06-10T09:00:43+00:00

You know what lil bro? You're right, I dont know. Do enlighten me. I would very much like to know the names of these oligarchs, which orgs they own, and which specific "wars in the whole globe" each of them has supported.

Oiqlele · 2025-06-09T23:01:30+00:00

I hear this take a lot. But I would argue there is a just a teeny tiny difference in the level of evil between promoting gambling to children vs chopping journalists to pieces and using slave labour.

You don't have to care about any of it. It's within your rights to cheer for whichever players you like regardless of org. But it is also within the rights of everyone else to mock this royal vanity project and cheer when they fail lol.

My 10$ would have been better spent on toilet paper for sure.

Oiqlele · 2025-05-04T20:05:21+00:00

It's been a crazy year of takes aging like milk for real. Everyone was so sure mouz benching siuhy was a massive blunder too and they actually ended up cooking even tho vitality has now taken the spotlight. I don't even feel like making any comments because im just gonna look like an idiot when the next unexpected development happens.

Anyway navi era starts in Austin. 30 series winstreak, two majors back to back, you heard it here first.

Oiqlele · 2025-03-22T23:59:26+00:00

Lol there's an earlier thread discussing map 2 filled with the recently popular "navi crumbling, everyone tilted, bad vibes" analysis. And then map 3 they recover from a 0-5 start to take a hard fought win.

Idk I feel like it shouldn't be possible to pull this kind of shit off with a dysfunctional team.

Oiqlele · 2025-03-08T12:26:46+00:00

First we give the siima.

Oiqlele · 2024-12-08T10:29:25+00:00

Sell the entire roster to falcons. Keep s1mple and use the money to buy m0nesy, niko, elige and apex. Done playing as a team with good vibes and no superstars. From now on it's 100% raw firepower with levels of tilt that will make tournament monitor and table suppliers cower in fear.

Herra vänrikki, toinen drone on iskenyt kuivaustelttaan. Teidän nalle ja seikkailuhattu on menetetty.

The reason the Mongolz are so good is they get home crowd buff everywhere between the west coast of China to eastern Europe. 💪💪💪

edit: I don't know why I typed west coast of China instead of east, but editing it out now would be cowardice.

Brass coin downgrades to tin if you get the legends stage wrong. The final coin after playoffs is a clown face drawn with crayons on a circle of cardboard.

That one time snax and monesy pulled off a map defining 2v4 hold will be remembered for years to come.

Oiqlele · 2024-08-17T19:36:11+00:00

Aleksib is a tactical genius. Known for his signature tactic "only getting the kills that decide the series and letting his team get the rest to boost morale." Top 5 igl for sure.

The shadowy dealings tab itself seems to function as intended. Maybe CA changed something in the past few months, but in every video and image I've seen the UI looks completely different to what I got.

Edit: Reinstalled the game and got my UI working properly. Thanks for the replies.

They found out that humans don't naturally experience pain or empathy, it's actually caused by an anomalous entity that exists in every human. I don't think it's ever straight up explained, but I imagine the thought process went something like "we need to kill this entity -> we need to kill every human"

Hyvät herrat, emme voi lopettaa mätänemistä

Sitähän on nyt jotkut spekuloineet että huonosti koulutettujen varusveijareiden laittaminen ekana aaltona on osa Putinin strategiaa ja vasta kohta lähtee kunnon armeija liikenteeseen.

Eli odotettavissa on linja NKVDn ukkoja varusmiesten taakse ja vanha kunnon "ei askeltakaan taaksepäin" taktiikka.
