Launders needs a podcast. He's the perfect blend of entertaining and knowledgeable.
thank hltv supports racism. only place where I can have my racist thoughts in peace
which race do u like the most? I like the monaco grand prix 2004
I dont get it...Why racist?

@@ferjinsmith2841 cuz racing is very fun
honestly the Stewie thing, i saw the video of G2 about their tournament and the Taz thing is actually true in how i perceived it, they were just on their phone and totally uninterested when he was talking to the team
Yea I felt that in the last day they were paying attention but before they weren’t when watching. So maybe stew is right, maybe he did kinda fix that mentality
So? You still don’t throw the team that gave u a lifeline back into t1 esports under the bus.
@@darbstre2900 I mean I don't think the comment itself was that bad, however the thing about them being yesman and not having an enjoyable environment was a bit questionable. But again they ask his opinion and he is an outspoken person
@@toonjanssens9610 I agree he said his opinion and he deserves to face the consequences. From everything I’ve heard the t2 orgs that were interested have all shown real hesitation.
Would rather hear the truth from these teams n such instead of all the fake ass gay PR they do
I agree with Launder’s take on Liquid qualifying NA. They couldn’t even qualify in NA with this roster. Just build the best team and qualify wherever.
cant wait to watch 2 and a half hours of my favorite racist ❤
I think if G2 moves hunter to a lurker/clutch role and anchor on ct side. He has the aim and the game knowledge to go big or know he just needs to stay alive and give time for his teammate. Kinda put him in the Xyp9x type role when he was in astralis. That opens room for malbs to take impact roles and how G2 has said in interviews hunter isnt THAT outspoken, which kinda fits that anchor role.
You than can pair malbs with niko and monsey for a nasty entry trio and then hooxi just needs to support them and stay alive basically. Give that a bit and if it doesnt work out to win trophies then you can make the call to replace hooxi with niko or another igl and you have 4 really good pieces that can do many things and find the prefect 5th when needed
spunj didnt get the memo about white t-shirt day
his shirt is grey....t
Just wanted to specifically say thanks for the direct translation by Prof of the idioms that got used during the malbs buyout price discussion.
Stay well, thanks for the content!
My favorite elden ring podcast
Maybe NAVI shot themselves in the foot with their unlikely success and refuse to make changes in order to improve chances of winning more trophies. Time will tell.
Well they did, but a major is a major.
With a platform this big you'd think they would talk about the Saudi sport washing in Esports and how the Esports world cup is a joke
what are you on about? Just because saudi wants to invest in sports/esports, its washing?
@@zySULTANr u dumb
@@zySULTAN riddle me this my friend if a country has been sportswashing in other sports and organisations and they indicate “interest” in counter strike is it foolish to assume their intentions line up with their track record
@@xgui3136 "track record" multiple usa organisations are doing the same thing with less money. USA killed millions and millions of innocent children and are still the main country funding a genocide as we speak - why dont you apply same logic to usa?
hypocrite.
hltv is in bed with the saudis, aren’t willing to discuss that. check out the recent maui, thorin and richard lewis episode for all of that stuff.
more episodes with launders pls
Yeah lownders, stay here and stop being commentator
simple back to liquid 🔥🔥🔥
simple tease NiP, hes joining NiP 90% sure.
@@FrogeshNO
JKS TO LIQUID SAVE US
@@ceoherohub2584 TL needs aggressive riflers, not another Naf.
I really do hope it could happen. Twistzz igl is someone simple can respect since he has been in a team to beat him multiple times and also has a major and grand slam and same with Naf having a grand slam, and yekindar is a household csgo name from his old form if he finds it again. Simple is fine as long as he respects his teammates so I think it would’ve been cool
Striker: "I have never played any of the Dark Souls games."
Me: "Fear not, your choice will bring you no scorn"
*grabs a torch and a pitchfork*
The problem with stewie is he unironically contradicts himself in the very next sentence of a point. It’s hard to say he’s just being “honest” when contradicting yourself is the very definition of being dishonest. It’s not just that he doesn’t have a filter for others, he quite literally does not have a filter for himself
I think this point would be good against stewie if we assume he's going into a debate/argument, but the psychology of just going through your stream of consciousness is way different, sure he sounds like he's contradicting himself when he says he doesn't know m0nesy but it could also literally just be "oh wait nvm I did hear about m0nesy on navi jr," you can't really assume you know what he's thinking. Personally, that's why I do think he's being honest but being honest doesn't mean being perfect.
@@craigswords you mean that stew doesnt think before he speaks lmao
@@michaelmarlee2051 that's not what that means at all but sure you can think that
@@craigswords Yeah, well the PR does matter and since it’s not like stewie had great mechanics during his performance in Dallas, if he just so happens to not get an offer and not join a team, he has only himself to blame. It’s incredibly sad, you can be as honest as he likes but there are consequences for brash behaviour and we’ll have to see if his current value as a player is enough for teams to overlook such a major red flag
@@user-wq2lu3fx7b you dont know anything if you think stewie had bad mechanics at Dallas, case closed
At this point Liquid should get either of the two danish IGLs Gla1ve or Hooxi (if he gets kicked from G2). In terms of awpers they can get someone temporarily like a loan or get someone like headtr1ck for now
No hooxi lmao. I love r1nkle or headtr1ck
I think when discussing why Yekindar isn't playing as well, we can go bakc to the discussion about Friberg going to IGL and never being able to go back. Maybe it applies to him? Although CS2 release at the same time of probably didn't help.
I want twistzz and NAF to succeed, so hopefully he can recover
I could see Esl make changes to the intel grand slam to counter the blast frequent flyer incentive
With the discussion about malbs's role, I wonder : are there examples, in recent tier 1 CS, of riflers changing roles successfully (and not awp to rifle, rifle to awp) ?
10 secs in. Simple to liquid, god no please. Simple is a phenomenal player, but he can be a toxic PoS as well, liquid can't deal with toxicity. It will just turn them into a ticking timebomb
imagine what picking up s1mple instead of the worst tier 1 pro ever (that is justified because he is an IGL and a gigachad) would do for G2 and niko igls
I was feelin the elden ring chat tbh…
I feel it's possible for an igl to keep up good performances but if you have a wildly mixed team like liquid then it will probably take a big toll from you
Nice one
ngl u could just make falcons into a danish team -sunpayus -maden +nicodoz as a hybrid, not sure who my 2nd player would be as im not super hyped about any danish tier 2 players atm. Idk if u would wanna gamble on k0nfig or not but he could be decent
Twistzz naf jks yeki zorte would be a great team.. if twistzz sux at igl role then twistzz naf zorte jks JT or twistzz jks naf nertz degster no good igl really available that i can think of

@@StewieStan2Kwhat are you yapping about. Like no way you think that would work
@@Rtke-999 why?
@@StewieStan2K s1mple has rage issues and no way liquid with naf and twistzz could handle that because naf had teammates like that before and it didn’t work out.
@@StewieStan2K hades is a not very reliable awper and liquid needs one. They have always issues with awping
ELDEN RING SHADOW OF THE FUCKIKNG ERDTREE
Spunj, please read out the "email" from the "anonymous source" confirming jks has been signed.
so Awp s1mple x biguezera on Liquid? Hltv always fanning my wildest fantasies
jks best option for liquid and if jokasteve doesn't get him he needs to be arrested for being stupidest manager ever
But they need an AWP & IGL
@@StewieStan2K yea twistzz igl , its like 100 percent chance hes igl for now , jks replace skullz and s1mple awp
@@c0stie34 nah s1mple on AWP will have more conflict than Cadian and Twistzz IGL will be his biggest mistake. If they kept CadiaN then jks for Skullz would’ve made a lot of sense.

@@ceoherohub2584 hades has been better and has played more than mantuu
I like Stew, and honestly have nothing but good things to say about him, but jesus... Wtf was he thinking. This is what we call a career sabotage. As if sabotaging your own career by not being quiet was not enough, he did it to the org who gave him his second change aka come back. Not only has he messed up his career now, he did it to the org that helped him out. I mean come on Stew. We thought you were better.
I doubt anyone in G2 actually thinks of it this way. Be careful reading too much into narratives created by pundits with an axe to grind
@@thenightmancometh93 narratives? I watched the interview myself, I do not get my info from 3rd parties. Stew said what he said, it does not matter how you view it. It is just disrespectful, specially coming from him.
Yeah I don’t view it as disrespectful personally and think it’s just an overblown narrative. You’re entitled to believe otherwise obviously
@@thenightmancometh93We’ll have to see. But if it just so happens he does not find a team , he has only himself and the interview to blame, because otherwise there’s nothing else to blame, he won Dallas, only the interview could’ve fucked him over, along with a pretty bad performance mechanics wise throughout the tournament
1:55:00 that did not age well
Liquid should get hades.
thanks to hltv for supporting racism, finally i've found a place that i feel like i fully belong into
jL only shows up when he does good individually , after the Major he was everywhere in twitch chats , twitter , then he went radio silence at EPL and Dallas , again now when he did well at Spring Final , he's yapping eveywhere .
BRING SIMPLE BACK!!!!!!! LMLGA!!!!! LETS MAKE LIQUID GREAT AGAIN!!!!
Magisk to g2 make sense and is gonna hapen
G2 will probably make 1 more roster change. It would be nice to see jks back in g2, which is at the moment the best fit the anchor role in g2
jks isnt joining g2 sorry g2 deserves fail after benching him
@@c0stie34 thanks that you are sorry and not giving jks to g2
@@okx8805 ???? realistically jks isnt going back , its possible but y would he
@@c0stie34 it’s unrealistic but there aren’t much top teams which he can go. Vitality has mezi who is not the problem liquid already have naffly, faze ropz, heroic sjush, maybe complexity or fnatic .
Niko and m0nesy won pretty much Dallas alone and jks had a good relationship with them. If he goes to a team like fly quest or fnatic, it would be a waste of talent in my opinion
@@okx8805 g2 kicked him for a reason and jks in skullz place would be better
6:46 - how about "off-season?" there's a summer off-season and a winter just like having spring and fall seasons for play
Faze is having some
Issues with D2 as they have to take it instead of overpass which was a good map for them
Also
It doesn’t help when you have a shit Anubis also you are playing Vertigo for that and they got counted hard on Nuke
liquid +s1mple +gla1ve
thinking about Liquid makes me depressed, and I'm not even a Liquid fan
Oskar to liquid ez
jks to liquid ?????????????
I say twistzz should just leave this sinking ship and go to vitality or something
Mongolz top 10 after July, Mongolz top 8 after cologne EZ
btw Faze>>>>>>> spirit
spirit barely competes in good events during year no doubt they never get exhausted.
bring a team together and bound them as liquid advertise was cool, but when the media is just media and there is no working bound is gg
Simple back to liquid trust
Don t wanna be rude but i think the show is better just with you 3, anyone agree?
Stew back to tl
g2 + iM somehow
real raci...
Our Fav Racist
nitro to liquid :)
Fl0m to liquid in any capacity cracks me up
G2 should get Hampus. Faze should get Twistzz as IGL.
Liquid org is a joke rather than looking for solution. They bench cadiaN and now they have to find 2 holes roles... ~ Maybe you can add nexa, jks, or whatever dedicated sniper...
They ruined yekindar too!
@@abhi8441999 no he ruined himself
This guys think they are pros. Why are you guys so racist?? Just why???
You guys only talk about so called top teams. Cant even mentions Complexity winning lan event in 10 years. Cant you guys give their flowers??
Mongolz will be top7 this year
s1mple to liquid plz 😢
Stewie2k should get his shit together open a book start getting smarter and learn to show respect to others! Disgraceful interview. He should be ashamed
Imho spirit is overrated
LOL Striker left!! How unprofessional that he got triggered. People don't understand analyst are more entertaining when they have a different opinion. They speak volumes for that population.
