TODAY'S CS2 News - Dona Drama! Fraudwatch, Chokers, IEM Dallas Review and Predictions

well this was going to be a relatively wholesome video where I talked about my Dallas takeaways and predictions for the future the Esports scene Counter Strike and then Donna had to get up all in my Twitter all right so now we got to talk about that unfortunately so this started with a take about Nexa Nexa I said was also so heavy when it came to the G2 run at Dallas where Stewie was obviously not great statistically but he had big moment and I said Nexa he didn't have good moments and he wasn't statistically that good if you disagree with that if you disagree with me on that let's talk Donna says it's okay your CS knowledge is just not that deep to understand what's happening on a server and how every part participates to win even as a player in a bad tournament you in London and I said no offense Donna but what the hell do you know about CS later to find out that Don is level five on face it more than you 100% enjoy creating your whole Persona about being an ugly hater ugly today I was called an ugly ignorant toxic racist hater and I was like ugly now you've crossed a line Donna Donna level five on faceit are you even allowed to download demos can you even spell demo UI Donna the knowledge doesn't come in the ring okay Donna so I've been in the game 10 years made a tutorial for every bit of movement mechanics I've taught Pro players how to do movement I've been watching demos for 10 years through csgo CS2 I just ran a local land I've won a local land I played Esa main I was Stewie's last igl before he went pro and then I stopped when I started casting Donna I know talking is free but I don't think you came out of this looking great okay anyways she accuses me of being toxic while calling me ugly and unknowledgeable superficial knowledge on CS okay had fun with that so anyways here's my personal post D takeaways SL predictions okay we'll start with monesy Mony is officially on Pace for a simple 2018 year Mony on Pace for a simple 2018 year because this year it's been a race between Don manace zwu and then a couple of outside bets you know Frozen on phas if they kept making finals and things like that but a little bit more unlikely past that point you get into the nios and the other players who are are not consistent but probably will get better okay but it's mainly monesy Don and zyu but what did Dallas show us Dallas showed us that monesy has a team that's as bad or worse than Z okay definitely worse than zyu Stewie and Nexel were both like top 80 players at Dallas so Mon's got a team that he's got to carry harder than zyu even when zyu was playing with massuda even when zyu was playing with you know Spinx before he started to get consistent when he played with Apex before he got more consistent SAU had some really rough teams Mon's had the worst basically and this is already a run that shows us what simple did in 2018 and zus won a couple of MVPs where he didn't win the event that's also important for a 2018 simple year it's not something that you want every single time you obviously want to win the event well monest he did both he carried a team in event he should never have won and with the help of his own 1.8s and 1.9s on single Maps yeah I was obviously Stewie posting all weekend um but monesy was and Nico were incredible carries NCO won this event as an igl that was amazing so Mony we're closing in on the first half of the year I'm going to go to the blast spring final soon and uh we're going to see basically in the first half of the Year where we stand but as of now as of Dallas and what we just saw from Mony and what we saw from donk that he's weak now that he showed some weakness and and I just want to say this is the first time that Don has shown weakness okay I want to be very pointed about my criticism and uh I'd also like to say uh one more message to Donna here okay if you you know if if if people being honest makes you angry that's not everybody's fault okay that's that's something for you to deal with all right so I think it's uh it's pretty important that people are honest because then you can cut to the Chase and to encourage people to be extra positive is literally encouraging them to lie so I don't I don't I don't think that's what anybody wants right there's no point in listening to somebody if they're patting every single statement they make so as long as I'm not uh bashing on players I'm criticizing you know their performance how they played everything like that I got nothing to say about bad to say about Nexa or anyone else for that matter every you know sometimes I go to events after like I'm friends with Alexi B I've criticized his major run and uh you know it's call the worst major run in history maybe a bit hyperbolic but uh the points in the video still stand everything I said I stand behind and you know I think I was right about that uh in terms of how lucky it was and what we see now with na'vi I think I could see that coming people got mad about that and and people are fine allowed to get mad but to be honest sometimes I think if they don't get mad you you're not that close to the truth you know what I mean so uh when I see Alexi be the next time I hope he's not mad at me because I still love him as a person we've hung out obviously I we've had a friend in common shout out to blasa in the Finish scene and I talked to Alex for a long time and I've been cheering for him too it's not even that I'm cheering against I'm not cheering against Nexa either I'm cheering for everyone to do as as good as they can but uh my job is to call it like I see it and if I say everything that people see on the surface then what the [ __ ] is the point of me talking right what's the point of me talking anyways um I would like to say that everything is very precise as well right uh this whole Donna drama is on Reddit and I I talked about Don and someone was like how can you criticize Don it's it's crazy after one game and I want to say I want to be very precise I said Don finally showed weakness and I say that because uh don finally showed weakness because this is the first match where his team lost but he also played badly got to call it a spade of spade when it came to Copenhagen versus face when it became to the b boom Disappearance in the Grand Final versus mouse Don was still there and I casted the bom you know three match Grand finals three map Grand finals versus shui I uh I was there watching the spirit game versus FaZe Don was great in that spirit game versus FaZe it was the rest of his team that choke it was ztics that got swallowed by the stage it was ZK to ch again uh here at Dallas but it was also donk this time around so just saying here he's finally showed weakness if even only once and I would like to say one more thing we're talking about monesy donkan zyu these are Elite level players that deserve the absolute most scrutiny okay if I was if I don't if we don't have acute scrutiny for players of this caliber then we're disrespecting them because that's the level that they've shown us especially when we're measuring them up against each other right any Gap in consistency is going to be a mark on the record at the end of the year when Don is going for number one player of the world and Dallas was a tier one stacked event where his head-to-head rival cleared him and had one of his best tournaments of the Year Dallas is going to matter and that's why one game matters like chess you can make 10 right moves in a row and then you make the 11th move wrong and you lose the game that's the deal with Spirit getting into playoffs and playing against hard teams and that's also the deal with zyu getting into Grand finals now I will say people are starting to open up to the idea of zyu not playing as well as he should be the weird part is that his playoffs are now super strong in the last two playoffs obviously his matches versus FaZe uh versus astris versus and at Dallas as well up until the finals and even until the last map of the finals but this is where the greats are made right right and we look back on zyu averaging 1.5 player of the year for the last 5 years that no one's done that before that's the kind of AC acute scrutiny that's required to talk about him because there are questions about him versus good teams big stage playoffs and now he's knocking out quarters and semis that's great grand finals is the most pressure what's the difference between your matchmaking game your pug a scrim a match a land match a a playoff match a playoff match on stage in front of a big crowd and a Grand Final in front of a big crowd it's the same game it's only the pressure that's the difference it's only the circumstances that have changed that's why those games matter and when someone says well it was just one map in the year it was just three maps in the year how many of those big games do you get to play does anybody get to play that's why you get to criticize that small sample size of games because those are the only games that matters for players of this caliber so for him to be in the top one conversation stats aside because the stats are still great the only thing that he's that that's going to win him over for people when it comes to him versus Donan monesy who have already shown more X Factor in 24 than zyu is how well he plays now in a big on a big stage in a grand finals versus a tier one team uh everything El but he is genuinely like making progress in that direction we're seeing more X Factor we're seeing better quarters better semis and better on stage all right uh M are a glass number one because they haven't beat faas on stage getting grouped will be remembered as an anomaly this is my statement as a prediction okay and uh on Reddit people are like how can you call Mousa glass number one and that's because again I think FaZe are number one until ma beat them and there are C cumstances where the best team in the world can't beat everybody all liquid 2019 can't beat astralis still clearly the number one team in the world um but this situation is different because FaZe have made every final for the last seven finals apart from Dallas of course and uh have also beat mous directly and is the reason that mous have been eliminated from playoffs in CS2 one of the only reasons in fact so the only time that Mouse make it through is when they don't play faas and we see how far they get when they don't so in this specific situation I can't honestly call M the number one team in the world because they're number one on hltv when they haven't beat their rival who regularly make Grand finals and now win them um when as for them getting grouped it's the first time for them getting grouped in something like 180 days so I I don't think that was a big deal I think they lost games and I casted a the NZ game that was a legitimate win for n9z N9 went on to beat Spirit Vitality like obviously or Vitality someone else obviously that was an amazing run from them and it was best of One Versus Mouse I'm not reading into this too much unlike the other teams who are on fraud watch I I think for M the grouped part is not a big deal for me it's the just getting a chance to play phas in playoffs which could have happened in Dallas but I think it's better that they don't play until cologne if it's possible that they meet in playoffs at cologne because M and FaZe both right now are undefeated on Mirage this is like M's best map at the moment so Ma and FaZe being undefeated on Mirage and never having played it against each other in their veto and having played each other in playoffs since M tou number one in the world this is one of the most fabulous story lines we got coming up that I haven't really talked about um uh obviously so we'll we'll see like in in tournaments and stuff I just noticed it at Dallas but it never happened so we'll see that's that's going to be pretty pretty awesome so yeah and then Stewie will have an impact on the narrative about stats and winning he was statistically hooky um but had a big late game moment in almost every map and had way better spacing in the entry pack Nexa was also so heavy so I wouldn't have brought up Nexa if legitimately this didn't actually improve what we watched Stewie do now Stewie didn't have a good event overall but he did if you watch all the games have a big moment in almost every single late uh round situ or sorry at the end of every map right in the most pressured circumstances as we got closer his aim got better was sort of a zipx type of thing um and zix's stats as you know weren't always amazing but his clutches in those games were just so much Beyond so far beyond the stats um it was similar for Stewie and uh we can remember a lot of good rounds now uh Nexa just didn't have as many they both failed a lot of gun duels Stewie failed even more than Nexa but uh I don't think there's anybody out there that would tell you that Nexa had more impact than Stewie on this tournament it's one of Nexus worst events and he cited so as well Donna come on he said this is his worst performance ever this wasn't even a dunk from me okay it's just stating something that happened all right uh and then the last bit here which is why I think I'm being called a racist toxic hater this year all I can think about is is choking zyu Comm Spirit frauds na'vi comma G2 with Nexa spirit and zyu and again I'm totally against G2 uh with Nexa instead of jks this is essentially what this is about it was just just a downgrade and an anchor I don't know I don't know why even have to anyone has to even talk about this anymore it's like pretty damn clear right it's pretty damn clear again Nexa is one of the nicest guys ever every time I see him at an event I always think damn I've talked [ __ ] on next a little bit I hope he's still happy to see me I hope well I don't even expect him to be happy to see me I hope he's not mad at me he always looks at me always smiles he's a great guy this is a performance-based thing and I can't be nice to people because they're nice or not nice to people because they're rude it has nothing to do with that it's never personal it's always just honest but yes I think jks is simply better than him in his role that's it um and then uh yeah I think and then frauds of course with zyu having a prooved now that this you know the grand finals things I talked about earlier Spirit having three bad games now at elimination games and I called this already at Copenhagen people got mad at me about that I I've uh I've had a good month in terms of predicting sort of things that people have mad at me about and star players should be consistently better electronic who has shown good stuff but not consistently good also a team problem here so this was a little bit iffy for me uh shirou who choked FaZe who was actually good at Dallas choked on stage versus phas at Copenhagen major important game again small sample size but important game I saw the choke and shirou when he played on Cloud9 not that it was mostly napan but there were a couple of games where I was like was it shirro too anyways starting to think about that yinder had a good Dallas but they came in eighth place so like what like okay he had a 150 and you come in eighth place congratulations um uh kadan Kaden isn't he was just around top 20 last year and the year before that I think also he's not a elite oper but he's supposed to be a star opper I mean supposed to be a star player in some sense he's an oper so yeah his op has been terrible if you've seen that the stats are one thing tell me you've watched KD and play and his op makes sense right now it's ass so okay uh Spinx is Spinx is literally Maniac put spin on fraudwatch in this last playoffs in D in in the finals in Dallas and that is the other thing that sucks for zyu is he could actually get away with some subpar performances if his team was overall more consistent but with Mesi and flamy taking turns bottom fragging Mesi had a great event too shout out to Mesi but their overall performance in terms of their overall consistency um on the bottom three is just not there for for Vitality not in the way that it was back when uh Dupri and Magis were on the team unfortunately I hate to say it and uh Emma well I people were mad at me about Emma too um me just the victim today people were mad at me about Emma as well when I uploaded that that video talking about his 088 at Copenhagen I don't know it just seems like obvious to me but for some reason I'm being told it's not obvious I just don't know the game anyways uh yeah that's it so the these are uh these are my Dallas takesa aways some my predictions for what's coming up and uh I think that's it that's all I got um code launders for 25% off actually for Father's Day on asone as. code laer for 25% off doesn't get much deeper than that get a pair of these cans they're the best cans that you can have for a land we made everyone at launders land use them for their stage game um we're going to bring them back for rentals they were rented out completely the last time atland they are the best headphones you could use and the only reason that Pro players use their IMS inside of their headphones is because they don't always have ason when they're at LS but the actual audio is the whole point and they should be using those because it would be way better but um yeah when you play with them on it's literally it's literally like cheating I have no other way to put it anyways I hope you enjoy that that's some news and some post Dallas takeaways for the week of uh June 3 June 3 baby fraudwatch with londes see you the next one
