fl0m Explains the Current State of the CS2 IGL Role

do I think hookie should stay uh I don't know the thing with hookie is I feel like he isn't the the bad games are just too bad and too frequent and you don't see him have like like carrian has pop off games you know what I mean I don't yeah when it comes to hookie though I the the issue is is who do you sign bro they've gone through so many International igls I think the only team that I feel like they could even pull from is I'm serious like the only player is snacks I'm not even trolling dude his profile picture looks hilarious oh my God that's actually incredible like snacks with Taz I think would go kind of crazy but also snacks doesn't really play the same way so I don't know I think lately I think hookie makes it really hard to defend him I was a big defender of him because G2 quite literally had zero success before he was there Eco and Hunter were there for like three plus years and never won a single tournament they never won Under the G2 Banner until hookie was there now does that mean hookie is the entire solution now like jks was a part of that as well like and he's just been rough and then they won without him in Dallas now the Dallas one's a bit weird it's like hard to quantify why wouldn't they sign stew uh well being just completely honest like I know Stu filled in for them and played those roles but it wasn't like the thing is with steu is Ste like he did anchor and I think he could anchor but he doesn't anchor does that make sense I know that's kind of like a weird thing to say like signing St for that event is perfect right he's filling in he's doing his thing but also like if you really want the to get the best set a Ste I don't know if anchoring for him is the best thing to do he might he might be fine with it I'm not saying he's anti I'm not trying to put words in Stewie's mouth here I'm just saying like dude especially when you're at the upper echelon especially and you're not like a team that's like growing you're G2 right you're coming in at six you just don't like signing players and then making them compromise just seems like such a huge risk it's really hard to like picture if Stu would have been a good fit for G2 and if they're going to like just being completely honest if they're going to make room for somebody like and they can get Ms I think dude MBS has been crazy dude cheap buyout probably comparatively speaking when you think of other teams been absolutely unreal this year you're signing a player that's literally been dominating so if you're going to make room for a player and then like somebody else is going to pick up the anchor rules I think it makes a lot of sense signing players for one skill set and then not using that skill set seems to be a c CS maneral classic though yeah I mean wait I as I say I threw a SE there managerial but yeah I don't know like that is you're not wrong sicko you're not wrong orgs love that [ __ ] they're like you're a star player do you want to play pit on Inferno like it's it's actually [ __ ] crazy man but no I I I do think that would be bad and and like I said if you're going to make space like if you if in this hypothetical you're making Hunter like anchor then yeah you should get MBS bro like Nico and mabs deagle save round literally will beat tier one team gun rounds consistently not even kidding Hunter would probably make a good anchor I think Hunter would be a great anchor I think I don't know why like like to me Hunter seems like the obvious guy like dude imagine if Hunter IG an anchored like he just stepped up and said I'mma do this [ __ ] like I feel like he'd actually be so sick given what G2 want is nothing but a major I don't think there's any igl available who makes utter sacrificial plays like hookie and fits play style and no that's that's kind of what I'm saying I'm not saying hookie isn't part of the issues with G2 but what I'm also saying is I just don't know who you replace him with dude it's not so simple people people on the internet just like [ __ ] get rid of them but it's like so who do they get I don't know fly out carrian forehead like some [ __ ] like that nonf fragging igl's make make it look at carrian oh no all the to they okay saying nonf fragging is just also stupid all of the igl's on the top teams are sacrificial Lambs for their star players they're basically human flashbangs the chopper might look a bit better right now though let's see let's go take a look let's do last 6 months let's take a look yeah yeah 1.0 and Chopper is on the best team and he most people consider him a [ __ ] God right like I did this before but like we we'll do it again yeah so 1.0 on Chopper let's go look at Apex and Apex lately has been arguably looking [ __ ] nice like actually 99 you you sensing a theme here now the thing is with hookie he's 88 though like he's he's he's in the [ __ ] bin right now the exception to this rule are like IG Ops right so J you shouldn't look at Jame and you shouldn't look at device in these scenarios 098 right but this I'm just doing this and I've I know I've shown this before but it's people really lack understanding when it comes to these like all these nonf fragging 's like dude none of them frag like 1.0 you are doing your job as an igl carrian before he dropped one [ __ ] kill on Inferno was the highest rated rifling yell at the [ __ ] major nobody will remember that though cuz he got one kill on Inferno and he's rocking a 0. n him and hookie are basically the same right now like let's let's see let's let's go to hookie now like Alexi's in the same boat if you look at Alexi right so Alexi's 0.91 89 and actually carrigan's more negative than hookie right now I just think people have like a really large misunderstanding of what the current meta for L's at rifle is just running in like you're usually just the entry like a hard [ __ ] entry at places because people are so good these days even with good executes which these teams are usually ending rounds with pretty decent executes people are so good that they can get around it and usually get the first guy but the idea is right that you send the first guy in there to pull the crossair way and then set up the trade for your star players like that's kind of the philosophy across the board so that that's and that's why the the recipe for Success you look at the top five teams right now they are literally all built the same way the the until you get to VP astrales every team is built the same way and then once you get out of away from those two every team is built the same way the biggest issue really has been Hunter's individual level has actually like I think Nexa wasn't that strong in the in the anchor position that just wasn't his role I don't it's they took somebody that didn't play that role bench the guy that did and then replace with somebody that doesn't Okay well it doesn't take a genius to figure that one out and Hunter individually I think has a has you know was supposed to be the one two- punch combo with monesy and Hunters had a terrible CS2 start he played better at you know the last two events but he's had a horrific start you know and that's why you've seen G2 be so inconsistent Nico starting to find form again which is a great sign for G2 Monas is literally the best player in CS2 and he's carrying this team and maintaining them top 10 and that's pretty much it you look at the rest of these teams it's like they're just they're [ __ ] gnarly man is Spirit not anomaly though considering their stars going in first like 80% of the time Don doesn't go in first 80% of the time Don does find entries but he's like when I say going in first I'm talking like um you're 5v5 and you're calling an end round as an igl the first guy that's going out is going to be um you know Chopper now Don does entry I'm not saying he doesn't and so do other T you know twist when he was on phas would do it all the time Flames will entry right like there but I'm telling you like when when when the round gets gnarly and when the round it like kind of dissolves a bit the people that are running out first are the igl's to to do exactly what I explained and also like the way most of the time uh Chopper uses donk is Don is the can opener for a very set piece in the early round you know you'll see Spirit drop like three nade sets to get Don into a position to to just go for his entry early and if they have reads on players yeah they'll he'll Chopper will just unleash Don there was a round where when they played ancient in the finals versus na'vi the very first gun round the Strat literally was Don just run up B with four people right behind him and Don just one ta the guy long and the round was over in 10 seconds so yeah they do it sometimes but I don't know why people hate on the kid though oh if you're talking about Dong oh cuz just like every 17-year-old you know he's literally growing up and people just flame him like they never did I'm literally [ __ ] 31 with pimp and people like look at the pimples dude are like look at his teeth like yeah it's just just a bunch of grown ass men that are insecure as [ __ ] on the internet and they'll be like oh it's just Bros being Bros like dude he doesn't know you it's weird you're talking to people that also don't know you so you're actually just insulting a [ __ ] teenager on the internet
