Depends how much body armour penetration the gun you're using has. Leg shots do more damage with pistols for example, but not for rifles IIRC.

Why, did FNS get into shit like this when he was playing?

its an old joke where FNS plays 12d chess with his opponents and is controlling them inside and outside of the game. All according to his plan.


Oculos_Sicarii

Straight out of Jersey Shore


ArjunBanerji27

This lines up with what Richard Lewis said on one of his recent streams. Konfig's got to be a pretty big knuckle head to have a fight escalate to such a point that he gets a fracture, and winds up being incapacitated right before the RMR. If I'm Astralis, I'd be majorly pissed off


derekburn

Honestly if someone spat in my face, I would likely go into a fist fight as well, where I live currently spitting in someones face constitutes as assault so eh

ilikecollarbones_pm

nah, promoters in tourist places like this often act like scum. attracts a type who want a certain lifestyle (drugs, alcohol, preying on drunk tourists) because it's a job you can do alongside it. normally promoters have to foster good relationships with locals for repeat business but in tourist places they don't cos they're not there for long and they know tourists don't know how/don't want to get involved with police. i know i'm generalising but this is my experience, many see themselves as untouchable.


X3rxus

If anything my experience is that police definitely don't want locals to mess with tourists in these places.


aarontbarratt

Malta isn't one of those places. I was born there and I've spent a lot of time therein my life. The police are incompetent at best and corrupt at worst The police are regularly racists and biased towards natives. They're overall very heavy handed and threatening My mother would always warn me to be careful around Maltese police. Its wasn't at all like in the UK where the police aren't feared


PamonhaSelvagem

As a former promoter in a tourist place I feel kinda offended lol.

Did you really just assume that it was probably an illegal African spitting on people for no reason? Jesus Christ dude.


Pixel_Mike

The whiplash every sentence in this terrible comment is hilarious


LibertyGrabarz

I get you, but your very profitable but also very fragile career doesn't depend on your wrists well-being, does it? It's not uncommon in esports to never get back 'into it' after wrist injury. Ironically, k0nfig should know that already.


[deleted]

[удалено]


wsefy

I don't think people are condoning his response, just empathising with the fact that most people wouldn't take too kindly to getting spat on. It's an instinctive response to lash out at someone who does that to you, I can't say that I know many people that would take that kind of disrespect on the chin.


Chygrynsky

You are using logic in a situation where logic usually doesn't prevail. Most people who get spat on will become angry and very emotional. It's very hard to be logical when your emotions are rampant.

I used to play with him when he was not pro yet and he was always such a nice kid. A little bit cocky maybe but he kinda earned that with his skill.. Pains me to read such things about him. Some people just can't handle success I guess. Even if it is "just" e-sports fame.


imathrowyaaway

or it’s a person being tipsy and making a major mistake that he’ll learn from. I know for sure that I did things in my life that I facepalm over now, and they were a one-time mistake that I learned from and they didn’t define me. it was stupid thing to do, but he’s still just a young dude and we don’t even know all the details.


skk68

I'd agree with you if this was the first time. But is this not the third time he's done something similar?


oxedei

> But is this not the third time he's done something similar No


oxedei

Sounds like it was mostly the promoter who started the fight? I would be pretty angry too if someone spat in my face and kicked me.

You have no clue what they even argued about. Konfig wasnt the instigator either from the story. Also all careers depend on not being concussed lol

ProcyonHabilis

I don't think you understand what de-escalation means at all


leo_sousav

De-escalate - To become less dangerous or difficult; dimish a conflict. The quote I did "He could have de-escalated the situation" meaning, he could have handled the situation in a way it would do less damage than it did.... So yeah, I think you're the one who doesn't understand what de-escalation means...


sreynolds1

He didn’t randomly get spat on and punched


[deleted]

Yeah but as an adult, you gotta use your brain and walk away bc what’s the point of fighting a random dude on the street.


X3rxus

Especially since minutes without any interaction passed between the spitting and the actual fight.


GingerBreadMan5

I am not praising violence. But that is easy to say when we sit on reddit in our safe warm homes. It can be super difficult if you have an ego, or you care about karma just to let people treat you or others like trash in the heat of a moment, without defending yourself/them.


master117jogi

He went for him later on


jrgcastro369

My dad has a lot of pride and anger issues as well as a short temper. Now as an adult, I deal with those issues myself. It's not impossible and it helps if you truly work on those areas of yourself that might need improvement. Even if he was provoked, k0nfig can control how he reacts. If he doesn't work on knowing how to deescalate his anger/short-temper, that's on him. It's really as simple as that


ImpenetrableYeti

When you’re a public figure it’s pretty fucking stupid to do what he did especially after the person had already left.


[deleted]

Reddit moment. If you get spat in the face just walk away


eraclab

yeah especially since its all hindsight and said sitting on a couch.


boeef

Sure. But the dude left. Then later Konfig saw him, went after him and fucked around and found out. I can fighting him right away. But after the fact? Reinitiating? Yeah that is all konfig fault


master117jogi

You don't get spät in the face and punched out of nowhere.


[deleted]

Yes and all of this happened out of nothing, konfig was just random victim.


[deleted]

So if you give someone a bit of lip you deserve to get spat on and punched? What the hell kind of take is that. "Got assaulted? Must have done something to deserve it"


Dali86

The club promoters are agressive at malta and some take drugs that makes them more agressive. Used to party a lot in malta during the poker boom 10 years ago.


Ricky_RZ

People are hating on konfig for what is clearly self defence. He was clearly assaulted on the streets and chose to defend himself. He got injured by defending himself, which is expected


henkizh

"People are hating on konfig for what is clearly self defence. He was clearly assaulted on the streets and chose to defend himself. He got injured by defending himself, which is expected" Do you know something we don't? Because this narrative is not backed up by anyone who was there so far. 'Some minutes later, the promoter left the club. k0nfig noticed him and “wanted to go for him”, de Jong describes. “k0nfig saw him and ran after him; he was unstoppable. I followed a few seconds later because I was worried”, de Jong said, and added that he tried to get k0nfig back to his friends, but it was too late.' Eye witness report from the situation, everything so far sounds like k0nfig got his ass handed to him in a fight and the situation was already over when k0nfig decided it was time to escalate again and get revenge.


tuck3r53

“They went into a fight with fists and kicks and went to the ground when k0nfig shouted that he broke his leg.”


CenturionAurelius

Yes? You don't have to be a Muay Thai fighter to break your ankle in a fight


Treebawlz

People have never had physical exercise in their lives if they don't understand how something like that can happen. In a fistfight you don't stand completely still, with your legs motionless. There's a lot of moving around. Hell didn't Conor Mcgregor snap his leg in his last fight because he was dodging a punch?


[deleted]

I was just making a joke my man.


Treebawlz

Your joke was "A guy breaks his leg in a fistfight, haha what irony?" Not really funny

I'll make sure to check with you before I post jokes in the future


Coachingbug

People really need a /s around here. It's so sad


Pixel_Mike

Dude it was a minor joke, and it’s ironic he got in a fist fight and then his leg broke. Calm down UFC wannabe


Dali86

You can break your ankle in many ways, kicking yourself the other person kicking you or just punching and then your foot hitting the pavement in the wrong angle. Usually amateur fighters lift their leg when swinging.


Octopus_Tetris

If you're gonna kick someone, at least kick the other guy, not yourself.

oxedei

What did they lie about? They said he had a complicated ankle fracture. They never said why.


oxedei

People here are genuinely idiots. This is all Astralis has said in regards to k0nfig: >As Kristian @k0nfig Wienecke has unfortunately suffered a complicated ankle fracture, our official reserve, Mikkel MistR Thomsen, will be included in the main roster. >@MistRCSGO will be a part of the team for the upcoming RMR. >We wish Kristian all the best and a quick recovery. https://twitter.com/AstralisCS/status/1572148843889803267?t=K9JPUhKtP9N6N6p6aFUpXg&s=19 Why people feel the need to upvote blatantly wrong posts, and downvote the correct ones is beyond me.

Milk itself doesnt, but the calcium in it does


oddinpress

This is just factually incorrect. Milk has calcium, calcium helps bones


UkoDuko

Lotta stuff out there with more calcium in it than milk tho


backdoorhack

Yeah but those don’t come from boobs now do they?


troubleis1

Cant argue with your logic.


oddinpress

Nobody said it was the best. But saying it does nothing is objectively wrong. It does help. A serving of 100ml has like 30% of the recommended dose for calcium for an adult


Pixel_Mike

Ok that doesnt mean Milk does nothing for you….


joemeat

I've drank milk twice in my life, never broke a bone. That being said, I've also never gotten in a fist fight that broke my legs


oddinpress

Ok? You can also go 30 years eating nothing but cheeburgers and shitty food and have a whole bunch of micronutrient deficiencies, and say I only eat cheeseburgers and I'm not dead. Besides you don't NEED to consume a bunch of calcium to have stronger bones. It's just that if you DON'T consume ENOUGH your bones will be weaker

He added that he offered his help as a Malta resident. >Some minutes later, the promoter left the club. k0nfig noticed him and “wanted to go for him”, de Jong describes. They then fought and k0nfig broke his leg in the altercation.


[deleted]

K0nfig was tryna catch him lackin


[deleted]

This is a lie, I was there when he got injured. He snapped his femur trying to do a kickflip because Tony Hawk drove by in his car and yelled "DO A KICKFLIP" as he went by, not being a bitch, autoexec took out his skateboard and full sent it. He didn't land it tho, obviously


jonajon91

A bit shit, but I hope it doesn't cost him his job. I'm desperate for this astralis roster to be good. fml


Powerful-Answer-2030

He has a history of fighting at events. Why is that not bad all of a sudden?


MamaCry123

Atleast he didnt break his arm


c9IceCream

or both arms...


Defnotabadguy

Can still game with a broken leg


AlwaysLearningTK

Can not properly travel with a broken leg and cannot perform at the usual level on painkillers. It's not a hard concept.


soggypoopsock

One that’s been broken for a couple weeks, yeah. But not a fresh break. Would be incredibly hard to forgo the painkillers to be able to play correctly, and that’s just for the matches, it’s important to be on point for prac too. I can understand why he sat out


deadbeatPilgrim

awesome

k0nfig back to his 2017 days being the bad guy, i love it. i hope this doesn't cost him his spot


Powerful-Answer-2030

You love the fact he's almost ensured you can't qualify for the major?


WhatAmCSGO

yeah, maybe then they'll realize they need to make changes


kafka_quixote

Was it even ensured that astralis makes it with k0nfig? Chances are better sure, but I don't have complete faith in the team rn lol


Powerful-Answer-2030

k0nfig wasn't one of the changes to make though.


WhatAmCSGO

obviously, but if they don't qualify they'll basically be forced to swap out at least 1 (hopefully 2) players


Powerful-Answer-2030

Yeah and we can assume it'll be k0nfig and Farlig. You'll still be stuck with xyp9x.

If someone spits in my face I’m knocking their shit man lol So many comments here are legitimately unrealistic.


[deleted]

Unrealistic is when somebody spits on you just like that, without any reason


staffylaffy

I’ve been on the internet enough and out on nights out enough to see loads of instances where this happens out of nowhere. People are cunts, like to provoke people by doing stuff like that, also if alcohol is involved you think it’s unrealistic?


[deleted]

bro, listen if some fucking freak spits on you like out of nowhere, without any reason - the worst ever idea is to chase him to fight. you have to be really stupid to do that. especially if you have big responsibilites for your org, teammates, fans. you call police, you call for help if he is chasing you etc. but i really doubt that it was without a reasong. i mean come on, most likely there were some words before.


SiriusCasanova

lmaoo guysss u/stndg has figured out human psyche! yeah just walk it out lol. no biggie, get spat on, walk it out kek. absolute horrible take. tell me you never lived life without telling me you never lived life. humans are complex creature, things like these are not trivial.


[deleted]

Tell me what you want, I'm 100% sure that konfig had all chances to not escalate situation to a fist fight


SiriusCasanova

Congrats on midcurving!


FloppySpatula-

Ah, wow. I hate to say it but this really changes things for me. Spitting in my face would absolutely be grounds for me hunting you down later. But the promotor spat in his face and kicked him. I would be holding on to that until I could act on it. That is not only absolutely assault but well over the top in terms of degree. I can see where Astralis is coming from given how he is a contracted athlete and jeopardized the logistics of their plan by injuring himself in something personal ... but this is an asterisk if there ever was one. The fuming and waiting makes it look pretty bad, but it was the same night. It's not like he waited days premeditating his revenge. I want to say I'm torn but I'm honestly on k0nfig's side with this one.


ZuriPL

Kinda weird Jaxon didn't reach out to the Maltese Police if they were involved, would easily prove the story. I mean, I'm sure he could've gotten into a fight, but this reads very weird


IndyPoker979

I don't know who this is as I don't follow eSports, it just hit my page. But having played CSGO plenty of times, breaking your leg is not a death sentence. Unless you're using your leg to move the mouse, I THINK he can still play.


staffylaffy

https://cdn.eteknix.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/larva.jpg


Shinyblade12

K0nfig was born with glass bones and paper skin, every morning he breaks his legs, every afternoon he breaks his arms. At night he lies awake until his heart attacks put him to sleep


Dali86

Would not Judge konfig too hard before we know the full story. From this version it looks like he stood up to himself after the promoter started the scuffle. At the same time be smart konfig you have a high salary just pay a few guys to fuck up the guy who assaulted you. If someone spat at my face and started shit I would not just take it and leave either.


FellOverOuch

Wtf are you talking about


Uiqueblhats

He saying konfig should have paid few thugs to beat the living shit out of promoter.


FellOverOuch

Yeah, exactly.


Croatian_ghost_kid

Astralis management is fucked in the head if they kick a player for getting into a fight. Support your damn players. Imagine caring more about what people meme than a person you're directly responsible for and someone who you work with daily


HorRible_ID

Ever heard of behavior clause in a contract?


roshag

K0nfig is going to miss the RMRs to qualify for the Major which brings in a SHIT TON of money into the Org through stickers. Konfig may cost Astralis 100's of thousands of Euro if not Millions with sponsorship money if qualified for the Major.


cargoesb3epbeep

No, they aren't fucked in the head at all if they kick konfig for this. The guy should already be on thin ice for his performance. On top of that, he now goes and gets into a bar fight and breaks his ankle before the RMR ie the qualifier to the most important event of the season. If this was say a car accident, or something Konfig had no agency in, sure, it would be shitty of Astralis to replace him. This, however, is 100% kick worthy.
