G2 trying their hardest to make the most troll roster moves every single time
I was worried Reddit would meme Stewie2k onto G2 or Liquid
@@alexs5368 Nah G2 were busy putting Malbs into nexa positions lol
he is in the team is the same reason why there is always a Brazilian player in a Liquid
the coach is pulling some string
@@s0meRand0m129 TaZ and Snax were literally having brawl since VP. Out of everyone they had the worst relations and even ended up in calling him bald.
@@piotrkijak1774 the fight that broke apart the legendary lineup was between Taz and Neo over a car
The world has been waiting for this one
Richard hating on G2 Hooxi since day1 until his eventual bench
the dedication 💪💪💪
Oh my boy Richie, you were so hopeful that they would do actual reasoning for their roster moves, but then... Can't wait for the follow-up video on the Rise of the Gigachad pt.2: Electric Snaxaloo.
Please never stop making fun of stewcels
Cannot wait for the follow up video on the Snax signing
2 favorite parts: Not a single cs2 highlight from the goodbye video and taz outfragged him in London spring groups
I want a Hooxi video made for me when I die..
Why are all analysts always talking about the veto of G2 being bad at the major? Niko and Hunter lost an atrocious 2v1 against aleksiB which lost them anubis straight up. If this had not happened they would have won the map and assuming they still won the second map they would have won the semifinals. Suddenly the veto does not look that bad.
we be no more hooxin😢
27:18 Were too optimistic with this prediction, but very close !
Hooxi is the Southgate of CS is a take I had never thought of but honestly it makes so much sense.
Ding Dong, the wicked witch is dead!
Been waiting for this!
now his watch has ended
We've all waited patiently for this all for him to be replaced by the Big Apple.
all of the hooxi highlights were at best 2 kills except that spraydown against unarmored usps. they couldnt find a normal 3 kill sequence for him lol
Hooxi on inferno with famas. There you go
How when multiple people on reddit told me he was a better fragger than nexa and hunter? He should have lots of 3 and 4 kills
@@Binzob them saying hooxi is a better fragger than hunter is exactly why you shouldn't listen to reddit. what a braindead take.
@@tObito687 Oh their comments got like 20 upvotes while mine that were based in reality were downvoted to fuck lol. Same people also downvote you for saying Stewie played bad.
They have an obsession with trying to seem smart and knowledgeable about CS by completely disregarding stats which is bizarre. It makes them seem even more stupid than they actually are.
@@tObito687Its meant to be sarcasm m8
Can't wait to see how the new people are gonna perform.No igl ever managed to make something with this shithole of a team, and now both niko and hunter are far away from their prime form as well.Blame the igl again or finally understand they just don t work together ? We ll see by the end of the year i guess, the only real bad thing is that unfortunately for niko time is ticking, slowly but surely it s getting more clear that he will go down as one of the best riflers of all time to never win a major...and almost nothing else really.
I've been waiting for this one!
Two things about the Snax signing:
1. Taz is betting his career as a coach on this one move
2. I think it will work
Genuine question, what makes you think it will work? I'm not sure about it so I'm interested in your perspective
Years of experience at the highest level, certainly will be better fraggin when compared to hooxi@@bradleyfirby648
@@bradleyfirby648 1. Snax has been putting up OK numbers against Tier 2 and Tier 3 which is all that would ever be expected of Hooxi.
2. I expect better utility usage and timings from Snax. This is speculation. I don't have data to support this
3. In the last 3 months Snax has died less per round than Hooxi. 0.66 vs 0.73 DPR means he's died 7 less times out of 100 rounds. In a 13-11 game that means he dies approximately 2 less times. To me that is not an insignificant amount of economy saved particularly if those deaths are avoided on CT side.
4. There should be an excellent working relationship between him and Taz. I just hope it translates to the server.
I'll be bold and say that G2 will make the playoffs of Shanghai and then they can only lose to Spirit. If they never play Spirit in the playoffs they win the major.
@click9914 There is a big difference between Tier 1 and 2-3. They were outclassed in all of their major games, from eye test they didnt belong there at all. Far from an upgrade but atleast they addressed the problem. Curious whether he is actually motivated or just cameback for the bag and the vibes.
Been waiting for this one
love those extended sentences of points having in between small roast moments with completely unrelated things to the main topic
"still better than k0nfig, fk you forever"
"heroic always chokes finals"
"except Evil Geniuses"
Callin it after snax, Niko takes over and goes on series of miracle runs
The farewell video made me tear up. RIP Hooxi
Banger
Hey rich I love your coverage of CS. The scene would be a much worse one without you in it.
We like Richard because we are toxic like him just be honest about it guys 😊
Me watching the major, "Oh man I cant wait for this Richard Lewis video. Its going to be amazing"
I have to put a cup between my legs personally
When Rostermania? I can't wait
Hooxi and that damn woo
Swani with Aleksib would have been a good match
I was waiting for this so long that i had a beer celebrating watching this. However i think that he could go to astralis, cause i don't believe in device being an igl
Gareth Southgate the Hooxi of International Football
Hooxi 'highlights' sound like a pigshed \m/
Quality
To the people impatient for this. There you go. Enjoy the classic Richard teardown.
rip Hooxi
The end of an era... the only fun thing about this "era" was the gigachad meme but well... esports fans...
gigasad :( RIP Hooxi hes passed away hasnt he
BLESS
he did get them their first 3 major trophies. Its a start for G2, but not winning anything for a year after cologne its just not excusable. Had to be done.
Let’s not forget the Stewie video, aged extremely well
Did they not aign Snax as IGL? Im early in the video yet but I'm confused about the IGL specualtion.
Recorded before Snax was announced
@MusicJunkie37 oh yes that makes sense, thank you
on point
Now we gonna be out here Snaxsin with G2.
the original hooxi hater prevailed !
It's so Joeover
Jks is gonna show the world Malbs can’t hang
LEGION!
LEGION!
(Rich said the thing so I had to respond)
i'm not fan of hooxi, but holy fuck, why snax
Hooxi/Cadian to fnatic will go so mild
I still don't understand the GIGACHAD connection to Hooxi. Where did it came from ? Why? I was away from CS between 2017-2023 so I may have missed something .... To me, the G2 team has 2 stars , one decent player and 2 mediocre players (Hooxi Nexa) . Very puzzling set up , considering you just need about 1-2 more star players to really kick things off. Never heard of Hooxi or Nexa before.
Hooxi put up less than 20 kills in entire tournament and they still won
had a few clutches, or had like one kill and 100% headshot kills, team flashes. some fans created a narrative where he dies to get info or to give opponents a chance etc. spread like a virus. for me true chad of cs was always rain very stoic plays for one team for a long time and a major mvp at 28 :D
@@michuof I agree. GIGACHAD should be something of a legend. Hooxi is a no name to me. Pasha, Neo , Get Right, Forest , Monesy, Niko, Heaton, - those are the Gigachads.
It was an irony thing. Like: "Hooxi getting 2 kills to give M0nesy and Niko a chance at getting some, GIGACHAD"
"Hooxi dying untraded to give info and win, GIGACHAD"
It was memed so hard it became like an actual nice thing to say eventually for his supporters.
@@Scyborg832 hooxi skipped a major to give other teams a chance yeah that kinda narrative
it was Slovenia not Slovakia :) we do have a similair name and flag, but we aren't slovaks :D we probably drink more then them and it's less of us in the world then them :)
I was listening to the podcast while I was working and laughed out loud when these losers said you were ball washing for Hooxi. I don't care about Counter-Strike but I know for sure you've been calling this guy out for a while now. Total mental illness.
It was sad to see the amount of "thank you gigachad" comments on the Hooxi benching video, because you just know that those are from the same people that wanted the guy out everytime they bombed out of an event. Esports fans and double standards
Nothing wrong with wanting a player out, but then also being respectful of their time on a team lol.
lets go
Not to defend Hooxie,
But you did kind of *prove* half the analyst desk doesnt know what theyre talking about at the last major. 😂
Or at the very least, they don't have much time to prepare for segments.
Some of the predictions they made and stories they chose to hype up really left me scratching my head, like 'have we been watching the same games'?
'How can you guys so consistently hold reddit (wrong) opinions?'
What are some examples and what would YOU have said or done differently?
@@cally8934 That's a great question, hard to remember exactly. I remember them confidently making a majority wrong picks, and choosing to hype up inconsistent players.
One easy example I *do* remember is them picking Eternal Fire over Navi, when Eternal Fire's map pool is entirely maps that Navi dominate on (Inferno).
And picking Cloud9 over Vitality. Which should speak for itself, considering the roster's history, and the fact they've disbanded within a few months.
@@ToniTakuto them being wrong in picking who wins have nothing to do with hooxi being bad because everyone knows it, yet now hes gone and everyone suddenly defends him
@@michaelmarlee2051 true, Richard calls out Hooxie in this video for going on stream with the desk and saying they don't know what they are talking about, which is not something a tier one igl should be doing after a loss. Very unprofessional, and it doesn't show the type of maturity fans want to see in owning up to your loss.

I'm sorry but I cannot agree with what you said about Blast World Finals 2022. First of all you mentioned the teams, as if G2 was playing against scrubs. You then saw that they beat Vitality, then Faze, then Team Liquid (okay, this one's pretty underwhelming), which immediately made you shift your focus onto the context of the game. You mentioned context and how most players have checked out, and G2 has only been able to win when people are checking out or just coming back from a vacation, therefore discounting their win for Katowice 2023 as well.
As for pro league after Katowice, if we're going by "context", everyone is just coming back from a vacation, no? So shouldn't every team get a pass here?
And then Cologne. You said it was a legit run. But then just before diving in, you undercut this by saying people were just playing CS2 at that point.
Bottomline is, a win is a win, maybe except the win against Jame crashing. I'm a brain-dead G2 fan, and I know they could've done better without Hooxi. But let's hate on the guy rationally. He has the aim of a gold nova master, and he needs his teammates to bail him out damn near every game. But that's all I'll say about him.
The amount of hate you're giving him is like a basketball fan hating on LeBron and undercutting his every achievement. I'm a huge LeBum hater, but even I wouldn't go as far as Skip Bayless. Don't go there, Richard. You're much better than that.
How's the milk, Hooxcels?🥛🤔
Pretty good. The snax roster is going to be an absolute DISASTER.
@@B0bB0b1nskiwell its not like Hooxi will ever get on another T1 org and even if he does, itll be disasterclass. So hooxi haters are up regardless of G2's success.
@@Scyborg832 roster gets a firepower upgrade and we both KNOW it's going to be a shit roster. That's because hooxi was actually a decent IGL. Also as for the take of "well which roster do you want hooxi on" I'd want hooxi on Liquid ASAP. I'd take him over apEX (who isn't actually a fragging IGL, he just farms ecos and plays rotator spots) and when dev1ce eventually realizes IGLing sucks and he doesn't want to do it I'll take hooxi on Astralis too.
@@B0bB0b1nski Great so you want him on Liquid on a team with already little firepower, that being twistzz. You want:
Twistzz
A shitter
A passive rifler
An unproven awper
Fucking hooxi.
Great they can be a 12th place finish at CCT and get knocked out of playins. And then astralis. You replace, what, br0 and get an IGL surrounded by 3 guys that just snaked their last 2 IGLs that has no firepower and is only "decent". That'll roll well. Max 5 months and Hooxi is kicked by vote.
@@Scyborg832 Liquid:
top 20 player Twistzz
top 20 player NAF
yekindar
Jokasteve was a moron for pickup up ultimate, doesn't affect my hooxi take
hooxi.
Ideally I'd be booting Yekindar too (insanely high salary and not great) but maybe he'll do better if hooxi's there to take some of the entry load off his shoulders plus keeping him lets you keep the core for the EU RMR. There's not a world where Twistzz is a better IGL and I would be shocked if Twistzz doesn't tank his game trying to IGL.
perennial top ~10 player dev1ce
ex-teammate jabbi
young talent staehr
stavn (in groupstages)
That's a good roster. Hooxi doesn't need to be some superstar IGL with dev1ce jabbi and staehr. Did you just forget that jabbi literally came up under hooxi? That's definitely going to be better in 6 months than this current lineup and has a higher overall ceiling. br0 isn't even a problem, he's just the obvious player to remove since you don't want to touch the other four but you also don't want dev1ce to IGL. His numbers look alright so far but it's being heavily boosted by DPR/KAST, he's at his lowest ever KPR and you don't tend to IMPROVE by being an IGL for a longer stretch.
Hey bro you are making us other boomers look bad. Quit yappin
As much as I like HooXi as a person, I can see past that and look at the numbers. As always thanks for your take at this!
