lol wtf how is this real at a major

We've had issues with PGL at previous events. Some Valve people lobbied to bring them back for CS:GO, feeling that they deserved another chance. That was a mistake. PGL is an ass, and we won't be working with them again.

id love to see another eleague major next year or fuck it, even mlg did a pretty decent job. the only thing pgl has going for them is this sick ass hud (which they basically took from ecs).

the PGL HUD was unveiled before the ECS HUD.

Some PCs didnt even have the necessary drivers installed, how tf does that happen

It's a shame PGL has been having so many issues because their production is definitely something else. The only thing I really don't like is the map icons they use for the veto process, I just can't see shit and it doesn't even look that good imo.

i feel bad for the guy... one of his teammates went 4-22 partly because his PC didn't have fucking nvidia, and then when you're down like 14-11 or whatever you have to pause because of dumb technical issues. i'd be mad as fuck

ppl are blaming him too for "not checking" his settings. players shouldnt have to check for drivers in a major.

Surely if you noticed that your FPS is lower than it should be, you should complain to PGL.

If these players can notice the difference between an i5 and an i7, how can they not notice that they don't have a driver installed?

yeah true. theyre both at fault in some way
just an unfortunate situation that hopefully doesn't happen again

Agreed. Drivers should have already been installed but Shroud is responsible for not calling an admin to check on this. He would have definitely solved the issue, oskar said he had similar problems and after he called an admin, it was fixed within a minute. If his fps were so low, why did he even leave it that way ? It's just beyond me. Imo C9 have nothing to blame but themselves for this.

major vp never disappoints

this major is a clusterfuck holy shit

the only constant is that coldzera is a fucking beast

at least the 16 teams have agreed not to abuse the jump bug.

Vega > PENTA
F3 < FaZe
mouz > North
Na'Vi > IMT
G2 < C9
fnatic < Ast
Gambit < VP
SK > BIG

Vega < PENTA
F3 < FaZe
mouz < North
Na'Vi > IMT
G2 > C9
fnatic < Ast
Gambit > VP
SK > BIG

I have a feeling c9 will destroy g2 tomorrow and g2 goes out in groups again at the 2-2 match

I wanna believe though but that will make it even more disappointing

Vega < PENTA - no way vega is gonna get more than one win even if they upset penta
F3 < FaZe - it can't happen, I have always thought faze is overrated but they aren't this bad
mouz > north - k0nfig is the only reason north was competitive against c9. mouz looking strong with ropz playing well
Na'Vi > IMT - should be a good game, but navi should win
G2 > C9 - looks like bot g2 came into play, but I expect them to grind out legends status and make a huge wave in playoffs
fnatic < Astralis - dupreeh has looked really really strong, I would've picked them to win against SK if coldzera wasn't godmode
Gambit > VP - I'm still not a believer in the krakow .plow but playoffs seem likely at the very least. they've also had a really easy schedule, it's weird that one of these teams will be a legend with SK tomorrow
SK > BIG - no one is going to beat coldzera

this marks the vega squadron winning streak to eventually make finals of the major, not dropping a single map (beating faze and g2 and denying them legend status) until they come across vp in finals which goes to 3 maps where they 16-0 vp on first map but vp wins last 2 16-14 and 22-19

FAZ0-3

I knew FaZe was in bad form from Cologne, but holy shit. 0-3 was not the result I was expecting from them

Faze was bad, especially kio being a problem again, but god damn those calls and executes from flipside are fucking beautiful

I have always liked faze as a team but holy cow this performance is inexcusable

Sure BIG and F3 had the play style to counter them but come on you can't be serious

In both this and cologne, only one player really even shows up to the server

And correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think one of the favorites to be finalists ever went 0-3

hahahahahhahaha how do you lose to Flipsid3 in a major hahahahhahahaa

2 HP LUL

that game was nuts

flipside is sick when they're on

you must respect markeloff

fnatic's t-side nuke is so shit wow

im not saying its JW's fault because fnatics outside smokes had tons of gaps and issues that costed them (and astralis countered them well) but when you start off the first half 20-6 and end 22-18, thats a YikerZ.
