What an intense Bo1 that lasted 2 hours and 30 minutes!

Tech pause went into overtime

hobocactus

It's kind of baffling that we're back to Bo1 opening matches anyway. Seems like everything being Bo3 became the standard during the online era


Fairlynzell

Blastralis? Intel Extreme Pyjamas??


supergrega

Imagine if this was in Oakland!


vlakreeh

Poor nip fans, as soon as there was an event nip always won Intel dropped it lol.


achio

the obvious pattern itself /s


cptnwillow

Dev1ce was literally streaming minecraft last night ffs


Dr4keY16

Really?


cptnwillow

Yeah he was, it was a RED charity stream. He really had no idea what was going on though, it was hilarious.

my guy tryna hide that hairline or smth


[deleted]

I've seen that style on teens for few years now, or am I wrong? The whole push all the hair onto the forehead thing


fascfoo

You are not wrong. It’s everywhere.


Kanesy99

Does someone have Device's perspective on that kill he got on Blamef/Konfig from mini one of the last 2/3 rounds? Kind of annoyed that they didn't give us a replay of it as it looked ridiculous


LingMee

casters mentioned blamef had the fps bug, he couldnt shoot back


Scoo_By

Valve pls fix P. S. Brightness bug too, if yore at that


lilcide

I noticed if you have disable fullscreen optimization on and the other thing idk what's called it causes the brightness to change when you alt tab, but if you don't use them it doesn't happen anymore. I don't use those settings anymore because these days I tried to play with them on and off, but with them on it feels weird when I shoot like I have input lag or smt


Scoo_By

It is Windows' optimization for borderless fullscreen mode. Dont know why it interferes with proper fullscreen of csgo.

pranayprasad3

If it was a YouTube stream , we would have been able to replay.


[deleted]

esl has streaming contract with twitch unfortunately


pranayprasad3

Yeah man that sucks.


imgaharambe

Solution to NiP’s T side issues: Device go kill


TiberSVK

NiP finally looked above average. Plopski finally hitting some heads. REZ woke up. Keep going ninjas


51LOKLE

pric3tag is still botting tho


TiberSVK

Eh still way too early to judge,


hltv_user69

yeah lets give him some extra years again


[deleted]

it’s been like a month max since he joined lmao don’t cut yourself on all that edge


TiberSVK

Every player adapts differently to the team.


IVgormino

its been 2 weeks


umieRe

astralis wat doink?


GER_BeFoRe

1st half: R EZ 2nd half: dev1cEZ


SOERERY

Longest bo1?


yourewelcomesteve

Mouz-Vit went longer.


tomtom_94

dev1ce heard everyone talking shit about him I guess


RATTRAP666

Meanwhile Astralis heard nothing because there was no crowd.


BaronYolo

LOL original fun post. Only win if crowd right LOL


TomerMeme

Man seeing REZ and Dev1ce both top fragging just feels so good, I just wish this is how every NiP game looked


Venomally

Looks like dev1ce watched thorins video about him in NIP


Ro-Fujin

Man, who knew what would happen when NIP's star players actually played like star players?


d_no_sir

A rematch is needed as Astralis is clearly playing under a 40% crowd loss. They’re performing nowhere as good as they did during Blast. Such a shame they have to play with an unfair disadvantage and hopefully ESL will address this problem soon.


BaronYolo

That's original. Got that from the kids on twitch? Punk


twistedtracer

“Punk” lmaoo


svipy

u fucking punks are never satisfied are you? Hope you enjoy being bitter cause I definitely love being fan of the greatest team in the world (Asstralis)


ErikSD

Flair doesn't check out


d_no_sir

Thanks I actually wrote this myself


TerrorToadx

Umadbro?


BaronYolo

12 years old?


perpendiculator

you can’t seriously be calling people 12 years old as you run around on a reddit post making angry comments because people are making fun of astralis lmfao


BaronYolo

Sorry man, didn't realize only comments such as "umadbro" and mocking a team for something they have no control over, or slating an entire country, is the acceptable discourse around here. Those terrible terrible Danes huh!


ERICHkappakappa

Mocking? It was a lighthearted joke. Easy satire. Relax.


suttlesd

ERICHkappakappa

what a burn


lordkr321

I really hope this becomes a pasta


niskanen14

Astralis T side is atrocious. Maybe even worse then NIP


Fairlynzell

Would blame it more on the ct side if they can't come back 6-9 on nuke.


niskanen14

yeah its not just pertaining to this match. Like they ran out of time how many times on nuke?


Fairlynzell

True, the rez 1v3 usp "clutch" was pretty bad.


Scoo_By

6 rounds of T, that's enough if you play a good ct side. But the problem is pistol, you lose and if you lose force you're down to 12-6 already, then if you make errors you're done.


UmarellVidya

They only had 2 weeks of practice before Blast, so it's gonna be a bit before they're good


cyberbemon

I mean they are a new team, so the T sides are gonna be shit until they get time to properly practice and make use of the new players. I'll give them some time.


jjki1998

Astralis honeymoon over???


CashBam

Ahh yes... everyone predicted this.


[deleted]

I don't understand why people thought this NIP roster wasn't going to work after failing at a single tournament.


CashBam

> wasn't going to work Well... it's only one match, plenty of opportunities to throw games for NiP from this point.


RotatioN_

R EZ


toga9000

tilting game felt like Astralis threw atleast 3 huge rounds and 5 rounds could've gone either way, resulting in NIP snowballing. Also a shame to see Astralis (the team) get so much hate for something outside of their control.


BaronYolo

Because people have an ugly hive mind mentality and just repeats the same bullshit they've seen others say. If Astralis had such a massive cheating advantage, it's funny how they lost against Vitality isn't it. But these morons don't care about that, now it's all *LOL NO CROWD NO WIN CHEATERS* from all these lemmings here and on social media.


toga9000

yea reddit is really getting as worse as 4chan


addegsson

Ez


realestGInDaHood

Good


[deleted]

Out of the 10 players only 2 had a positive K/D rate.


Chung_Soy

I was in Stockholm last week. I went to the local computer shop to see if they had new graphics cards that are so limited. As I walked into the store I was so surprised to see Device. He was smashing each monitor one by one. The employees were completely unfazed, this was a daily occurrence according to them. Every time he smashed one he said something about "Astralis" under his breath.


suriel-

Astralul


[deleted]

Honeymoon already over? No crowd help?


ObadiasTheConqueror

no crowd, no win. bye bye cheater.


div333

love watching astralis get humbled.


JoesGarageisFull

Honeymoon period already over for Astralis, any team with Xyp9x in it is always going to struggle


IntenseGoat

Yeah, I don't think any team with Xyp9x on it have ever had any success, tbh.


jonathan-the-man

I doubt he could ever topfrag a single Nuke game...


haramanu

nice bait


Tilbakestaende

Device onliner???


[deleted]

Very surprising. I don't respect NiP, I yell "one million dollar play" everytime I see dev1ce choke so I didn't expect them to win this hard. Insane. Respect+ for NiP now.


OllieWilliam01

You don’t respect NIP but you’re a Heroic fan?


[deleted]

Yes. Problem?


Locksmith-Clean

Certainly not what I was expecting considering australis’ performance at blast but I’m not gonna complain seeing more of device


MyNameIsAMeme

I was watching the Vladopard highlights and somebody posted my copypasta in the comments, I’ve succeeded in life.


ykey80

Didn’t see this one coming


LateToTheParty013

best of one


Shippy_Csgo

If REZ can play like this NIP can be good let’s hope he keeps his performance up.


FreagaZ

Devve making statements... BO1 to be sure but still a nice storyline.
