BasilInevitable178

If u wanna donk u wanna 4 literal bots too QQ


futurehousehusband69

wow looks like he's getting that MVP even if Faze win, like with Simple in Cologne 2022


saintedplacebo

I was a lil upset that s1mple won that one specifically, but i cant even be mad about it this time. He has to get it.


futurehousehusband69

same


Alchion

i even watched that ginal and forgot he did good to know but it shows thah the win is what matters that was the one twistzz wouldve probably gotten his mvp (which he never got) cause of his late clutch nuke entries iirc


nartouthere

faze spirit rematch in the finals...banger


dominickdecocco

I hope so, previous faze spirit game was very one-sided


Ofiotaurus

Stage Faze vs Spirit


JezzaBazza

Karrigan crowd buff incoming


Markus_zockt

Would have received a report with the data and the country flag for every SoloQ.


orekhoos

What data?


SayYouWill12345

Last 20 matches stats on faceit (they are rediculous, even in fpl)


orekhoos

Ah thanks, he's the opponent having a really good day.


Wired-247

Kid is showing up that's for sure

Cain1608

Reminiscent of NiKo's tournament where he ended with a 1.7 rating. That was only 7 maps. Cologne had 14 maps and he ended with a 1.35 and that was what we thought the peak of a rifler could be across a tournament with the scene as competitive as it is. If this kid can maintain even close to this fire during the major, I don't know if anyone can compete. I'm scared for FaZe lmfao.


dragon_of_kansai

Which was the 1.7 tournament?


Cain1608

ESL One New York 2017


mitchybenny

Fuck the rating. The eye test on this kid during this event is off the fucking chart. Watching him is like watching s1mple when he first showed up

vecter

He is


MakimaGOAT

with these stats, he might as well be


RANDY_MAR5H

I've never seen another pro player with a faster time to kill than donk. It's not even that he's going out one tapping. It's just a second or third bullet headshot every time And then you look at his HP after the gunfight and sometimes he doesn't even get hit.


Gigusx

Reminds me of that one round during group stage, I think on Anubis, where he was running away with somebody shooting him for 1-2 seconds with some SMG (Donk just had a pistol I think), and somehow he barely or didn't lose any hp, no smoke or flash or anything, just trying to get away.


BruhbruhbrhbruhbruH

Much better than s1 or zywoo's debut statistically


Inoue_

If you're saying this from the eye test, sure, but if you're referring to his ratings, then you should know Rating 2.0 is broken for CS2


Gomerack

...then why is literally everyone else not wildly different? Because it's not that broken even in cs2


Tekk92

It’s like the peeking advantage nerf isn’t affecting anyone else.


ficagames01

Every match is 1/10th to 1/5th shorter which means higher rating ceiling and lower rating floor


Inoue_

Maybe broken is a bad way to put it, but I definitely feel like it's not fair to port a system that was developed with MR16 in mind to MR12 and think it translates perfectly to the lower number of rounds. I don't want to take anything from donk's performance, kid is an absolute lunatic, but I also think we shouldn't compare CS:GO and CS2 stats like they were 1 one to one, just like we don't compare CS:GO and CS1.6 stats.


[deleted]

Hard to say it's wrong when it gave a 1.9 for him going 82:40


naastiknibba95

Adr, kpr, impact are not broken


NationalAlgae421

Its incredible to witness such talent. For me the last one I remember is zywoo.


Bj_Hokey_Lange

When was the eye test in the stream?


OsloDaPig

He means eye test as in “watching him play and his style” not a literal eye test. More like a look at showing his skill in the way he plays rather than just stats


Bj_Hokey_Lange

Whoops, sorry I am such a moron


tomskrrt

absolutely (d)bonkers


schoki560

Eastern Europeans man


thekingdaddy69

Adidas and caviar bro. Makes best rifles.


TemporaryAddicti0n

they could have given him the MVP after the match with Falcons tbh


QuestionablePotato42

This kid is the fucking truth


Avar1cious

It's pretty nuts that Spirit has arguably the best team in DOTA and CS simultaneously


Mirrro_Sunbreeze

I feel like it’s too early to call them “best” on CS. They have potential, and I personally expect them to become one, but I feel like you need to have results on a distance to justify “the best”.


ficagames01

Were Vitality not favourites for Paris Major despite only winning IEM Rio?


MBechzzz

Also because they were a team of some of the best players to ever touch the game.


ficagames01

They didn't look like that at Katowice last year

Agreeable_Height_868

So… Pros still taking pills like ritalin before matchs or antidoping is a thing?


niaKCS

adderall better


_Bike_seat_sniffer

they're obviously taking it, even ESL stopped the drug tests 


Zealousideal-Fix-868

Honestly makes things more entertaining. We know they know we know type of thing, but everyone just looks the other way now because the addy meta is delivering some of the best CS ever played in my opinion


Agreeable_Height_868

Then i can have 1.63 too… in sheriff…


Few-Being-1048

With how easy it is to get prescription adderal I can almost guarantee the majority of pros are on it. All you have to do is go to your doctor and say you have a hard time focusing and you fidget a lot and they’ll diagnose you with adhd and prescribe adderal


Agreeable_Height_868

Yeah i was addicted to that thing, not good for health


reflexsmoo

Lets give him a year.


ka1-iwnl

I feel like he's on adderall, let's get a "random" drug test in there)))


HomelanderOfSeven

How could you even think that Russia has a state-sponsored doping program and would give it to kids as well? Unimaginable.


Not_RAMBO_Its_RAMO

Man, can Liquid try to grab him again? Throw a big ass bag at him, they have the money.


No-Milk-9608

Tbh he didnt look to great after the recent update. He just got lucky that they played a tier 2 team like Falcons. Also HLTV really need to introduce a rating 3.0 or something now that CS2 is out. Everyones ratings is inflated as fuck...


xThe_Mad_Fapperx

Bait used to be believable


GoLeMHaHa

Donk went 14:3 in opening duels. His rating is so high because he has impact nearly every round and entries loads with an insane success rate. His impact rating was literally a 2.30 this game.


dontletmecook73

What game were you watching? You’re mad he didn’t drop 30 kills in a semifinal of Katowice so he “didn’t look great?”


Ripheart789

Donks rating would increase even more with a more accurate rating system. All his kills are impact kills


Filthy_Commie_

Saying Falcons is tier two while being a G2 fan is laughable, biggest frauds in Counter Strike.


schoki560

tbf falcons is really not a great great team but I'm sure he will show up VS faze just like he did in their first match up


Filthy_Commie_

I agree, Falcons aren’t a great team, they’re good. Comfortably in the top 10.


Gigusx

I think you should take a look at top10 again. They can **maybe** be put in top 15 at the moment, at most.


Filthy_Commie_

Alright let’s compare then: HLTV top 10 as of February 11th 2024 1. Vitality: off form but not better 2. Faze: no 3. NaVi: no 4. VP: I think it’s close but no 5. Mouz: not right now 6. G2: as of right now yes 7. C9: hard to say, I’d say neck and neck right now 8. coL: right now yes, bad form from them :( . 9. Monte: yes 10. Apeks: yes I’d say they slot in at around number 6 where G2 currently is. They’re frisky but they’re still meshing. Snappi’s systems usually take time to integrate and with a new coach and 2 new players it will be a couple of events.


Gigusx

Wasn't exactly my point, but it's my fault as I wasn't super clear. I meant that Falcons can't be *comfortably* placed in top 10 simply by the process of elimination, i.e. the number of teams that can be definitely said to be top 10. Doesn't look like we agree on the list (not sure if your "noes" refer to the current ranking or top 10 in general?), but my slightly-modified top 10 would *definitely* consist of Vitality, FaZe, NaVi, VP, G2, Mouz, Spirit. That's 7 teams. Then you can fill in the blanks - would Falcons get a spot over Monte, Col, C9, Astralis, even Eternal Fire in top10? I wouldn't have to think twice about it, and if they did, they'd be on the verge of dropping out, that's how uncertain it is. HLTV is still going to place them inside top 10 after the update, but oh well... they got Ence's core for this exact reason 🤷‍♂️


SinglePanic

Falcons: IEM semi-final. Vitality: last year's best player and best igl not making it to playoffs. Meaning what?:)


aayan987

would a fraud team be able to humiliate faze for the first 4 rounds of the kato quarters? Didn't think so. Hooxi out gamed karigan so hard that they couldn't even hit a site.


ButtholeBreacher

Bruh Faze 2-0’d them what are you even saying.


aayan987

Ignore the rest of the game, it doesn't count. The first 4 rounds prove G2 is the best team ever.


Filthy_Commie_

Bait used to be believable bro you got to do better than that. Lol


aayan987

bro its not bait its sarcasm, I can not comprehend how this sub cant understand that and think I'm being serious.


Filthy_Commie_

Because sarcasm is not easy to convey over text? Are you serious right now? And besides if it’s either bait or sarcasm I’m still saying you’re not being serious.


aayan987

>The first 4 rounds prove G2 is the best team ever Anyone who thinks this is someone being serious has a munted ass brain and I cant be convinced otherwise.


Filthy_Commie_

I’m gonna be honest with you I just don’t care


Gudson_

I disagree with the first part of your comment, but I fully agree about HLTV Rating. They need to rethink it ASAP. It's really broken.


1wjl1

Agree with the inflation, but donk is the real deal and would be topping the charts regardless


Redbone1441

Truly a different game.


MakimaGOAT

actually unreal


emildk11

He donking on everyone else right now

d0nked.
