WORST GRAND FINALS IN CS2 HISTORY?! WHY SO EZ? ZYWOO DIDN'T MAKE IT! EPL RECAP

hello there friends today we will discuss the semi-finals and finals of the ESL pro league most likely you already know what happened nevertheless we've made a quick recap if you missed it also as always in the beginning we talk about some official news so without further Ado let's get straight to it as always a roster changes so it's now official dagster is joining heroic as a sniper Abdul has been inactive for almost a year 325 days to be exact he has zero matches in CS2 but hopefully he will be able to play as cool as he did in CS goo if not better also bleed officially announced team changes cir and vladan left and no and jcam joined here's what cassad said both cir and vladon helped a lot in building the foundation of the team so this decision wasn't easy at all but as a coach sometimes you need to make those calls and look a few steps ahead and you know what guys looking at bleed now I think they're actually doing the right thing true they're not looking like a tier one team not even close but they're working towards it and they can do it eventually also in the end Monte sent gizm me back to the academy nothing quite unexpected here and now finally to the matches the first semi-final is astralis versus Vitality zyu is aiming to beat Dong's record here at EPL while estras finally got their act together and started playing really well now they have a really formidable opponent so so they will have to really try to get to the finals and of course Vitality started their Peck very confidently first they won the pestal round then they stayed focused during the fource round and in a full buy they just shattered astralis' defense Z looked really eager to set the new record and even though I praised the Danes so much this tournament they overs slapped the match after winning their first round at' 05 it seemed like they should have gotten a foothold in terms of score and economy but no Vitality again show how to play this game so in general only after 61 the real CS began stav got an OP to wield which by the way was the right idea mid aggressive exit and CT got three winning frags so they had no problems finishing the round in general australes kind of found the key to Victory but slipped in the last round of the first half and lost it with a score of 57 with a change of sides estris Avenged the pistol round but they couldn't counter the force but here gradually at their own Peck they start to disappear a series of three rounds from the Dan already puts Vitality behind and only on the second full by round they managed to equalize Vitality lost their ground while astralis were surviving as hard as they could round 21 put everything in its place split a works perfectly a great open frag from zyu but it won't help stav and sty opened the plant got some help from the mid and finished it superbly the first map goes to the dees and we move to vertigo here basically the same scenario Vitality lead first then a huge highlight from estris and St solos one V3 when the map hasn't even started yet script on this round yeah absolutely true Apex to clean his spray but he took enough Agro to set this one up M them down St offering to overplay his hand here and st's got no intention of doing that just jiggling on the knife he's called Spinx his bluff and on the back of that play it's enough to win the round for asales the teams don't let each other go far sweating for every round whether it's an Eco or full byy just doesn't matter but so far it's Vitality who look more confident while the Danes have a half of the team that can't even KD bro goes 58 and stabby I mean stav and yabi got eight each Vitality again win the first half leading by two and the second pistol round again goes to Estus and it's kind of been a long time since we had any highlights from zyu immediately the Frenchman corrects his mistakes kind of responding to stav's previous clutch find the frag and thrusts zyu into a three versus one but har these are the sort of rounds he wins yeah these are the rounds that zwu is supposed to deliver to Vitality it's a big ask he's up to the task zwu keeps that lead held for the Vitality Squad is he deal but you know what guys it's not only about zyu Apex the myth the man the legend is also involved in the race he personally pulls out a round for the team a very important Quadro kill he puts Vitality ahead again it's 1012 astralis got no money for a full buy and has to go with Farm guns or pistols here it is your best chance to end the map but flames and Mesi die Apex can't aim and this miracle by astralis transferred them to the OT extra time it is but aralis lost the threat to the game nothing was working they managed to win one fight but it was too chaotic and in the end it's 1613 and vitality take it now Inferno thinking about it Spinx strawless out of vertigo Vitality take us the distance as maps are traded out back and forth for the first time in three Maps Asis took the initiative and just closed their opponents six rounds in a row and nothing good expected for Apex in the gang but suddenly they took one then another and it's a snowball already just look at how Flames gets a fantastic Quadro and in the next one zy wins a beauty that will be enough hit a cross shot they know they have a 2v2 and now a 2V1 over towards this spe site they say yabby mate you want the a control you have it they try and play ahead they try and play through and Z cross right past him bomb's here now for zyu and he knows the options open ABI but knife ped both players and knives out ab's heard this but zwu seems aware zwu is aware and zwu Stands Tall to keep this streak coming in for vitality and the second pistol round turned out to be asus's funeral Vitality were just better they had the mood they had everything especially the best player of 2023 he makes an ace because he can after dropping the ball in the first half they need to pick it right back up and get it in that goal hole looking for Bo he single bye-bye Asis that is give it to him read it and wait here comes the most important round finally estres got their act together and saved up for some guns but they're just zeroed in a couple of seconds so device and the Gang leave EPL season 19 but anyways you know guys asales did a great job here almost doing it against Vitality playing well overall I wouldn't call it a failer no sir on the contrary we at last can see that these dudes can perform so K us to them next the second semi-final let's see if Johnny s's support for a will be enough to proceed against Ma and here we go already in the round three we see a cool calm and collected ninja diffuse JT tries his best to deny it but things are not going according to his plan complexity won two rounds and then faded mes had fun played well and they were just good but then holer suddenly remembers that he can be kicked from the team so he has to try his best and he gets the third round for complexity in solo by a triple frag from op he energizes the team to take the lead in the first half and then in the second half while making a Quadro with Berettas that's just the first half let's see if Hower can open up his account with a triple take the jewel Berettas and melt M got quad kill from H it was the end of Maes on vertigo won a couple of more rounds and gave up complexity were significantly better Holzer the Beast by the way guys if anyone can explain why he decided to cut off his amazing Mallet please do it in the comments below he lost a bit of his personality with it I think on nuke Alia's bolt buff continued he played so good you wouldn't believe it best in stats by a mile the thing is he played solo all his teammates were just bad as hell not even reaching green KDs while Mouse had a great time again having fun and just winning the map next the last map of the semifinal ancient and here mous surprised me their confidence and power left no chances for complexity just look at this Quadro from the captain yeah it was against pistols but still a Quadro long story short complexity were done after winning the third round I didn't get what happened here to be honest was even worse than nuke like Mae outsmarted them during the map Pig stage or something Alicia's team just wasn't ready and the captain himself got only 11 frags in a whole map which was by the way the most among all complexity players but then I really liked how seei finally made it clear who will win this map a 1v4 clutch easy breezy Lam and squeezy well and that's how ancient ended and the semi-finals as well ma proceed to their second proleague Final in a row the youngsters will meet the Titans one of the best teams in the world and zyu he's in top shape so let's not slow down and move on to the main match of the week and once again zyu can break dun's record if he performs a little better in the finals than he did throughout the whole tournament he needs to beat a 1.70 hltv rating in a single Championship currently This Record is held by donk in CS2 and Nico in csgo anyways the match starts and Tori opens it with his USP the most beautiful way with a Quadro something has clearly happened to Vitality I can't explain it they have recently shot down faas and now they have problems against Mouse on paper it's like three 0 for the French bees easy but here it's as if they can't find themselves they go under a and don't even check the defaults and this is the final of a tier one tournament and for some reason they even tried the James style rounds which as the genre insist often don't work for other teams half the team is dead before they enter the other half mid entrance poor Apex just doesn't know where to put himself and what to do sure Never Say Never for a comeback so it was super DM it was 93 then Mouse won the second pistols so it's 113 and only after that Vitality started to play even Z woke up and fragged someone but honestly it didn't help to impose a normal fight no comeback Bros the first map of the finals Inferno goes to Mouse which is kind of interesting by the way because it's Vitality pick and they have never lost their pcks before in this tournament the next map starts and it's close and sweaty 33 finally something worthy but no Tori again shines bright with a op French Kebab what's going on with the Vitality Bros I don't know I thought the first one was just a warmup like they will start playing in the second map but it turns out it was a warm- up for Mouse the youngsters just pushed further and further after map one three rounds from the bees was apparently the ceiling for a half I feel sorry for them and this result was reinforced by C and his clutch Vitality themselves lost it the half is over the third pist of round of four is won by Mouse again the score is 103 and only a miracle can save Vel and you know what the miracle is called Spinx on force with a Galil he literally has 6 hp and he delivers but the French are clearly not ready either there's some pressure they're feeling not so good or maybe something else I don't know they just send a player with a C4 to scout smoke without info without a Flash without anything just go bro we'll cover meanwhile zyu is not the frag leader it's Spinx and as you might have already guessed no record here for zyu moreover dude they just have at least to win a map first but it didn't happen 138 on Mirage for Mouse two and it's one map away from Victory frankly nuke was even worse can you imagine and the youngest player of mouse just solos and he's 17 you know in short Vitality were done why even try coming back from O2 right now even Spinx can't or won't frag well and the whole tab looks awesome one frag from Mesi flames and Apex two for zyu and Spinx yeah one of the best teams in the world mhm anyways it took seven rounds for Vitality to finally take their first one and the best player of 2023 did it by a tiny 1v2 clutch alas they couldn't turn the game around and they actually didn't even try 10 two ends the half a couple of more scraps in defense and what a round from shuy a delightful clutch try 1v4 a Pity time ran out it would have been one of the best clutches of the year I sure but that didn't really stop ma from winning nuke and the finals as well first big win for them after the lineup change and second consecutive win in the ESL pro league congratulations guys and honestly shame for Vitality shame MVP surely to zyu even considering the failed final he made 1.56 hltv rating by the way this is the seventh tournament for zyu where his team didn't take the first place and he still got the MVP medal here's an interesting comparison of the two best players in CS history when they got the MVP but didn't win the tournament simple shows that he doesn't need this award he WS just to win but zvo is happy as never before says a lot but obviously that's just a joke zeu is a good and positive guy all the time and yeah moreover the Frenchman now has as many MVP awards as Nikolai device 19 and they're only too short of simple okay friends we're done now thank you for watching don't forget to hit the like button
