🤣😂😂😂😂🤣
LOL
🤣that's crazy ongg
Hahahahaha
this comment.
The only chef with 5 Michelin stars. Let Blad3 cook
Giga based take - Gordon Ramsay is looking behind his back
322 likes is a good number
In other episodes, the guest almost always doesn't give much commentary. But here, b1ad3 takes up 70% of the time, he's cooking for sure
i swear this guy is the best guest, honest, straight to the point, talkative, love it
True his english is also much better now
Having a coach give us this much honest info is just gold. Great interview. Blade is the Goat
LET HIM COOK
They should have thrown B1ad3 stickers in the champions capsule too
real
I would buy
Unfortunately Valve isn't really a fan of coaches in general, so that's probably never gonna happen.
B1ad3 is one of the best guests this show has had for a long time imo. so much knowledge, experience and yet so humble. what a great guy.
HE IS THE CHEF
Okay listen. Him saying cook must have been a bet with the boys how many times he can say it 😂
I had this thought as well! The way he kept bringing it up you could almost sense him setting up the opportunity to say it every time lol.
I mean in Ukrainian to cook is also to prepare, so that's probably why he kept saying it. For example: cook yourself(😭) = prepare yourself
Fr
@@spwhite3339 Ok but have you ever heard him say it in interviews before?
@@puupipo no lmao
B1ad3 is definitely one of the greatest CS coach of all time.
At 1:29:28 Blade was talking about zugzwang, not stalemate like Striker pointed out.
A zugzwang is when you are put in a worse position because you have to make a move. He's saying that they might be worse off, at least at start maybe, if they would have to fit s1mple in the roster.
Yeah imagine letting s1mple leave for another team because you don't want to disrupt the team that could turn out to be the worst mistake ever should he come back to top 5 form
That must be the term he was referring to, but when he says you can't make any more moves, that would be a stalemate. I think we got the point :D
@@MrSvedous zugzwang means every move you have left is a losing move
Huge respect for B1ad3. He does not forget about the war and condemns ruzzia and those who support them.
idk man, what does he mean by promoting the flag, electronic loves his country as much as blade do. So it is not fair to say do not show your flag to someone.
whatever bot
@@someone3706 he join to Z-team so he support putler
@@someone3706 he was without flag all this time, but he returned it right before the transition in VP. And VP sponsored by the russian government
@@someone3706time stamp please
Extremely insightful, if understandably measured, answers from B1ad3. Great episode. Appreciate his answers around the iM perspective online vs what Navi are aiming to build. He clearly believes iM will grow and have a higher ceiling than what we have seen recently. This was a great hype video for ESL particularly with electroNic's virtus debut and Navi post major showing.
Additionally I appreciate the stand being stated, "winning a major cannot be a fluke" as I hate the way the CS community throws this around to deflate an achievement of a given team. In all competition sometimes a bounce can go your way and an opponent can make a boneheaded mistake or throw a key round. This is why competition is so exciting as it is a combo of imperfect humans competing. There can be some variance but the preparation, mental fortitude, team dynamics, and skill it takes to get through a whole major and come out on top is massive.
Blade is a waffler deluxe and I love it
its so awesome to see blade smile and happy like this!
I never comment anything, but hearing from B1ad3 is always very interesting, how he views things and all, thank you guys for inviting him
The Moneyball analogy is top notch from prof, very clever
43:25 the more i listen the more i think what he is really talking about is S-tier, rather than tier-1
tier1 for blade its 20-30 players in world.
Blad3 always straight with his answers, and always gives good insights.
He just cooked a 3 Michelin star dish 😗👌
Blade is the mastermind of coaches in history! Brilliant guy, i'm pretty sure he is a genius.
i love blade but he thought 0*1=1 so i would not go so far to call him a genius
the gordon ramsey of cs
I love B1ad3's brain for the game.
B1ad3 the Chef
"ohh hello guys. it's me" blade cheeky smile omg so cute 32:07
Just talking to my friends about this and it just popped up. Thanks for the 2 hours of content
B1ad3 will definitely be cooking
Blad3 must've learned what cooking means from the navi bois
Blad3 is happy?! Cooking without toxic spices looking good.
IVE BEEN WAITING ALL WEEK
these guys tryan hold their laughter when the goat says "cooks himself"
B1ad3 is always just so interesting to listen to
Doood! Blade is crazy. But it seems like he could have fun, but he's just crazy serious and professional
Loving this closer setting to blad3
What an interview!!!
Andrew “Big Cooker” Gorodensky
Pure gold!
When blade speaks, you listen. Great interview.
take a shot everytime b1ad3 says cook
Im so glad to hear B1ad3 speaking out about RU BS.
47:51 Spunj wants to laugh but restrains himself lol.
If Navi can win the major with all of their problems, imagine if they were all at their previous peak performances
VP 100% belongs to USM foundation owned by russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov (this is why its a USM foundation). Usmanov is heavily connected to russian government
Love B1ad3
How nice of Blade to include these three aspirin talents on his podcast.
BEST HLTV CONFIRMED EVER ❤
love hearing B1ad3 talk about counter strike, would love to see art on to talk about furia.
BLAD3 MASTER CHEF WAS NOT ON MY BINGO CARD
The man who gave cs2 cooking.
Can't wait to see the development for Navi's Cooking stage
My goat can't multiply. He is just like me fr
king B1ad3
Blad3 really is a true sportsman. Very interesting to listen to.
the goat
what a brain man
god i love this game
What a long hot seat segment
This guy is very smart and intelligent.Big respect, however I fall asleep with his answer I kept forgetting what was actual question
B1ad3 is actually who comes on the show, talks CS and he actually makes sense.
From now on we shall call him THE CHEF
proud dad)))
Navi had to prove they could do it without s1mple. Especially B1ade ... And they did . So happy for them .
More blade please. So interesting to listen him.
L
I think that guy is cooking something.
blad3 the goat
aint blade rich why no better mic
TORILLA TAVATAAN!!!!
We need a bald professeur with a stash bro. I think it would suit you
🧑🍳 Blade 🧑🍳 live on HLTV Cookfirmed
Damn I wanna see NaVi playing so bad. Now that the players have even more confidence in themselves and don't need to prove anything to anyone anymore.
Agreed. I'm so damn excited for cologne but it's in august lmao
lol at first read, thought you meant you wanted to see Navi suck.
Bald3 thought that electronic change flag to Russia mean supporting the war.I actually want to know what he feels about the behavior Spinx did?
most likely exactly the same. But Russia is bombing his country, not Israel so he cares more about Russia
what did Spinx do? i guess hes pro Israel, but did he say something specific?
Well you see its different when you are Ukrainian and Russia is actively bombing your home country
Tough call, but during the second world war, if someone flew a German flag, would you think they supported the Nazis or the allies?
@@lohvrtinot comparable though. Just because one country is in a conflict with the other, doesn’t mean a shit.
It’s Counter-strike. The last place where you should discuss politics lmao. Otherwise like the guy said above, I am waiting patiently when people will start Israeli or American flags in players profiles because why not.
+ did electronic stopped being a Russian? Or Russians as Nationality don’t exist anymore?
B1ad3 dont know the word = kooking kooking 💀
Literally Moneyball, Cs2 versio
So iM is nervous and performing a lot worse in officials than in practice. That's what I suspected and good news. He can and will get better as he adapts to the Navi system which is more complicated than the system he played in previously. And if they can win a major like this, they could establish an era once the players get more comfortable. The ceiling for this team is crazy.
blade goat
blad3 mby the goat? :DD he is
To be honest Blad3 could've provided so much insight if only his English was better than what it is now. He clearly to this day has very limited vocabulary and I can always see that he's trying to explain something but he's getting lost in his own words due to lack of vocabulary and being unable to construct sentences correctly which prevents him from being able to express himself the way he wants and so most people would miss out on what he's trying to say. GL
The search for perfection can destroy a GOOD team.
G.O.A.T. DELUXE
Self-warning: IEM Chengdu thing in the video is a bait
Good words on a rus**an flag. Totally agree 💯
Ira from Europe's dira. Ironic.

The real NAVI MVP
Blade is a cs mastermind but can’t do 0*1 correctly 💔💔💔
Go iM where you feel wanted and appreciated by everyone, let them "cook" with S1mple. Just like last year's major or until he didn't want to play anymore and had to be replaced by Wonderful.
Unsure what you are talking about here buddy
Does waffle a lot tbf
I love bladee
Faze rain is the best player at the moment in this age he's the god
I like blad3 but it is hard to litsen to him when he takes very long time trying to remember words in english
Well obviously cause he's not a native english speaker
bed engIand
Zonic has won 5 majors as a coach with astralis. What was that fact check saying blade is the only one who’s won multiple majors? Did they mean he’s won as a player and a coach??
ur deaf. they said he’s the third to win multiple majors, but the first to do it with completely different rosters. zues and zonic had reliable superstar cores. blad3 switched from CIS to international and still got his team to the finish line without the superstars.
@@Miikasaestill you could argue vitality is a different enough team
@@Miikasae Zonic also did it. Sure you could argue about the superstars angle, but talking objectively, he won with a Danish team then went on to win with an international team that had a different core (core as in, at least 3 of the same players on the lineup)
@@ardcVs fair. completely diff situation when they have Apex, Zywoo, dupreeh, and magisk, imo, but yeah ig you could say zonic did the domestic->international thing first
BET SITES OWNS Y OU MFS,major denmark was rigged FAZE in inferno were throwing from 1st round +russian teams got suspiciously unlucky
Worst coach and too much yapping + overthinking. Summary: "No one is tier 1 in NAVI, i won the Major".
B1ad3 is prob the second best coach in the world and he is correct. No one in Navi have proven much in the last 4 years. All Cinderella runs at the Copenhagen Major and Aleksi has had it rough. Its up to NAVI now to prove they are a top team
@@xlgapelsin6173 - arrogant Blade asap. It's all Aleksib's godlike calls and the teammates being humble. They are willing to listen to the IGL and cooperate. jL is giving it all.
@@cpfantastic5576 Aleksi did nothing remarkable after the ence major final. They played well this major but now they have to show that they are a top team
U r a clown
@@cpfantastic5576
As Aleksib fan, I think you are completely wrong. B1ad3 is crucial to NAVI system, and is one of the greatest coaches of all time.
ZZZZZZZ Boring
you can't cook bruh
I would be bored too if I looked at your profile picture as well.
@@HiDDeulgi I like watching HLTW, but this time I think it was pretty boring. That you then subsequently go in and write what I feel and think about this section, without being personal. Just saying you have a boring life. Or maybe you are in quarantine for Corona.
blade bringing war in this...total sh1t..he even have Z ( 3 ) in his name
The Russian Flag's history (history of tricolor) is more than 300 years, you have no right to connect tricolor to current government and war. Thank you for understanding >3
this is the country flag so what are you saying he has no right to connect it to the current war? russians start a war under this flag
ahhaahah what ??
@@7mercury77 what part of the statement you didnt understand?
L take
@@pa_pasha69 0 arguments, if you want to ban Russian flag and the flag of the Russians - then you have to do the same with a lot of european and other countries cuz there were always war started by them as well through the entire history. I suggest starting from the UK and the US then
joke game. joke mr12 major
Cry is free
Then why you didn't win this Major?
then dont watch and definitely dont comment under major winner coach xDDDDDDDD. Nobody cares about you
That’s superb! Let’s connect?
Navi lineup still can't beat vitality and spirit on a bo3 game..
Cry
@@sensaman1701 well just sayin
@@dThreexxx Well just saying, maybe those two teams should have beaten Faze :(
He is megamind and that is why he is a boring guest. Lots of words, nothing really said… Zzz.. Untill we come to electronic and that takes is so shit when you support all ESL events.
Rainbow mention hit hard. So true,
