Except that one game against Liquid lol. We might see a rematch of that one.Astralis' Inferno defense is terrifying. It's like they have no weaknesses (outside of that one round where they randomly decide to all push mid one at a time because they got cocky).
Simple and Electronic combo is just scary.
Navi vs Astralis would be crazy.
If S1mple and Electronic are MJ and Pippen, then Astralis must be the Dubs with Durant lol.Navi got this, s1mple and electronic best duo since MJ and Pippen
Yeah. The way Astralis use their utilities is just amazing, especially on the CT side. The timing with the smokes and molotovs is just so good.Na'Vi vs Astralis really can go either way. Really hope Astralis can win their second major, since their teamwork is so amazing to watch, but I wouldn't be disappointed if S1mple manages to win his first major either. He's been the best player for a while now and deserves to win a major once. Na'Vi's fragging power is really insane and fun to watch. They seem to trade a lot more now too, but aim is just much more inconsistent, than having great teamplay. I hope Astralis doesn't shit the bed (like Liquid did).
It's probably NaVi's permaban for a reason.Why does anyone waste their veto on cache when playing Astralis? Astralis don't like cache either. They're not going to intentionally choose it. Always veto nuke. Like... I just don't get it. Hey, we're playing that team that's undefeated on nuke and hates cache... we veto cache, right? Let's spot the best team in the world a free map. Sensible.
Yeah, and who are they playing today? The team that they can't beat on nuke. So absolutely don't let them play nuke! That's just basic strategy. Minimize your opponent's strength. Astralis' biggest strength is the map de_nuke. Take it away from them. Even if they do counter by choosing cache, you've probably got better odds on that map than nuke. More likely they choose a map that you know like dust2 or inferno and then you veto cache next. Vetoing cache first was a braindead strategy and it may well have cost them any chance of being competitive in the final.They've played it 3 times since 2015 lmao.
Na'Vi are also pretty fucking good on Nuke. Astralis are the only team to beat them on it for the last 4 or 5 months.
they're really not.
This is absolutely the best way to describe that team
Well my internet connection was disconnected too so definitely not a MM server issue. I've heard drop hacks before but for a different game. How can peope enjoy a game while they're hacking?I think I've read about lag switches or something a while ago. Don't know if this still works and has ever worked outside of P2P connections but maybe there are more sophisticated solutions today?
It could all also just be a bad mm Server.
i'm sure all 2000 people watching on facebook were SHOCKEDNRG just eliminated FaZe, who thought it was a good idea to have this tournament the same week the major ended? These teams either aren't gonna give a fuck or in the middle of roster changes
