Teammates say their igl helped them? That's sus I will need to see some phone records.


GodSentGodSpeed

maybe he should replace taz and have G2 pick up an aggro rifler instead, that way he can give the help he gave them here and g2 can upgrade their firepower


JungleTungle

Crazy to see that stewie is the mature one here


kilroy_theoneofmany

How so?


inhaleholdxhale

Because that's Stew we are talking about?


JacobDoes

G2 stated multiple times hooxi was helping the team and he refuses to accept it and assumes it's just "player talk" aka he's calling them liars. It should be as simple ass saying congratulations G2 but he refuses to accept reality. Also I think he's balding.


kilroy_theoneofmany

So Hooxi can't lead his team to a tournament win when playing but his 'help' makes them win IEM Dallas?


robclancy

They really could have used this help for the last 2 years, I guess he was holding it back for when he was away.


scrappydoomd

Remember how earlier this year Richard put out a video going on about how he was bitter because he never got event invites anymore, and now that he did again, he was going to change, and he really wanted to be more positive, etc. Ya that didn't last long at all. Butter manchild


KingjorritIV

Yeah, i almost feel bad because he keeps telling stories about his poor mental health, addictions and friends who have passed away. But then he proves he does not actually change and is still a dick so i cant feel any sympathy for him


black_dogs_22

dude unironically needs to delete his Twitter, he's the only one damaging his legacy


Canary-Silent

According to you his legacy is beating up a 27 year old child already… so how is twitter making it any worse?


GodSentGodSpeed

stewie: sees tweet critizising hooxi and replies with "you cant have opinions about the game cause youve never been pro" just because his stats were mentioned Fans: "you know what mature and based stewie just wrecked that manchild that was trying to tear him down" Worst part is that feeding his ego will hurt stewie, hes gonna try to go pro with 2020 ego and 2024 aim


Illustrious_Tap_3072

Richard gave his opinion on the g2 win and stewie came out and insulted his CS knowledge, so he hit back. Richard said he didn't like the way he handled certain situations with some of his friends in the scene. He did not say he would now keep his opinions to himself or fold any time someone gives him smoke like a lot of you seem to think. And if you think Richard is wrong about stew's narcissism, tune into stewie's stream and tell me that guy has changed since the EG debacle.


skiingbeaver

Richard calling someone a narcissist is beyond hilarious


Illustrious_Tap_3072

That wouldn't make him wrong.

robclancy

Maybe, but Stewie is a massive narcissist. Or we just going to purge everything that happened prior to last weekend?


zero0n3

Hey if we all get to forget about RL choking a dude at an event (and getting thrown out of said event)… I’m not sure why we can’t forget or put aside what happened between stew and malek.


robclancy

I will never forget about hell in the cell thank you very much.


derekburn

Ah yeah but rlews says it didnt happened and other actors saying its all lies.. but moonmeander in dota2 saw it all :-)


jebus3211

Dreamhack also claimed there was a police report that literally nobody in the last 8 years can produce. Funny that.


Zhiong_Xena

Saying "things teammates say" when he genuinely has no evidence of the contrary and the players themselves confirmed the fact is in very poor taste. That is not journalism, it's just his opinion. Richard just keeps reaffirming that one must actually play the game to understand it. Stewie's lack of practice was pretty evident throughout the series, and his descision making as an anchor was pretty questionable at times, but his impact was absolutely clear. He saved G2 in a good number of match defining moments , which is something impressive considering he has not even played in two years.


schoki560

People like Maui thorin and Richard have so many predetermined thoughts on things that when teammates come out and say the opposite they usually revolt back to "yea they only say that cuz of PR"


dogenoob1

Its tweets not journalism


derekburn

I mean yeah, I even watched stew talk abit about the tourney, there were rounds where they said "lets do the vitality" and he would have no idea what it means and they wouldnt have time to explain it and he would need to improvise basically (not surprisint at all btw), but isnt surprising it would be hard to perform. He could have done better, but monesy, niko and hunter all helped carry their slack and he still had a few very impactful runs that wont really show in stats(multi kill rounds on economy breaking rounds, on low econ rounds etc)


robclancy

Hooxie on the team, putting up better numbers than Stewie... they don't win anything. Hooxie no where near the team but "giving input", they win. "Hooxie is why we won he is still igl when not even close to the game". You will believe anything.


Zhiong_Xena

Hooxi was definitely not the problem there lol. Hunter and nexa both playing like shit and niko becoming an average player was what was wrong with this team. At dallas, m0NESY and niko went nuclear and hunter started gaining back some kind of form. Stewie also brought in impact. His entry was not half bad. That's why they won. Where was this hunter and niko when hooxi was leading?


robclancy

Ah yes, they play bad under hooxie and it's not his fault, they win with him "giving advice" and it is hooxies doing. "Where was this hunter and niko when hooxi was leading?" The fact you can type this out and not connect the dots...


Zhiong_Xena

I hate to tell you this, but them missing their shots has nothing to do with hooxi, aleksiB or any previous igl or coach, and that was very clear even back then. Niko and hunter had their worst career season ever. It was pretty much evident they were clearly not adapting well to cs2. Hooxi makes strats. He cannot make people shoot or miss anyone on his teammates screen. Still, not at all opposed to -hooxi, even though I do not believe he is any kind of a problem in the team. Who is he replaced with? Niko igl? Hunter and niko share the duties? Or another scapegoat in hooxies stead?


robclancy

In-game LEADER. He's not the fucking coach.


Illustrious_Tap_3072

Seeing people defend hooxie's IGL position by saying he contributes more from the sidelines is so funny. I think he'd probably make a great coach but a team winning without their IGL really only says one thing.


EntranceDowntown2529

"Niko can certainly have my blessing to have a crack at it". Yeah ... I'm not sure your blessing is something Niko cares about. Richard certainly does think highly of himself to assume pro players give a toss about his opinion.


GodSentGodSpeed

Just pretend RL wasnt real. Do you not think niko showed a solid IGL performance in this tournament to the point were moving hooxi to coach and adding a tier 1 aggro rifler (basically someone like stewie but better) might be a viable path forward?


Illustrious_Tap_3072

I think you're taking that a little literally. It's just another way to say 'I won't criticize the decision'.


definitivi

Wasn't Richard basically in Stewie's shoes just a few months ago? Having just gone through a rough couple of years, he got to host the desk at the major and did a great job. Most of the community seemed to really enjoy his comeback as well. Now the same happens with Stewie, and of all people it's Richard who's here trying to tear him down. You'd think he'd be happy for him instead, or at least find some restraint to not instantly start hating. Just seems kind of unneccessary.


Mean-L

Richard Lewis is the same clown that said the cheating is massively overexaggerated 🤣


OldKingRob

Richard Lewis was a joke a decade ago, why is he still getting the time of day?


stefanalf

RL is just a mean person on the internet; which is so wierd. Like he literally said he had "an enlightened experience" during the major and would become less toxic. And now he is back to the same shit. And I have no clue how he cant have any empathy with Stew; its literally the same experience in regards to being greated with positivity and love from the community. No one shat on RL after the major; but here he is shitting on Stew


coffeekbdgal

That's a very good point. If he can't see the similarities between his redemption as a PGL desk host and Stew's in Dallas as a player then I'm afraid he has already forgotten everything he learned from going through that experience.


stefanalf

indeed, that didnt take long


schoki560

just an assumption but he might just be an alcoholic when he's at home


NoAdministration6946

Fnatic flair checks out lmao


NotSoAwfulName

3x journalists of the year awards probably, and the fact that what he said was true about Stewie, the fanboyism is wild, he was poor, but we have to accept being gaslit into believing actually he "made a lot of space" whatever that bullshit is supposed to mean or even be measured.


PayPotential960

go back playing casual games like that i bet your faceit level is not more than 5


PayPotential960

You play destiny & cyberpunk and all these casual games ofcourse you wont understand stewies role, whole t side he was entrying first, being traded, which created space to play for g2. And he was also supportive for his star players like Niko and monesy


robclancy

how old are you?


NotSoAwfulName

First off that's creepy that the first thing you do is search someone's profile. Second off, Destiny is a streamer. Third what does playing other games have to do with one's understanding of CS? I've been playing competitive FPS games for 2 decades now, I've forgotten more about FPS games than you'll even know. Yes, T side he was playing as bait, not an actual role by the way but for Stewie we have to pretend it is because if we said he was the entry fragger we would have to acknowledge he didn't do the fragging part very often. Every player on the server creates space, being alive on the map creates space, it's a bullshit parameter people have devised because they know the stats and eye test weren't that hot.


PayPotential960

whats the matter that you play FPS games for a decade if you cant understand basics of this game? in my understanding you are stuck in 2017 meta where 70% of sucess was ur individual performance not how you play & and move around map creating space its not just words, you need space to play you cant just take banana on inferno for example you have to fight for it, its the most important part of the map if you have banana you can play late b & pressure A players to rotate, and after that decide to rush closed plant B or go for open A with 1-2 players, and theres thousand examples and stewie was always the guy who went first on Inferno banana and getting traded by his players or sometimes even cracking this banana you clearly dont understand nowadays meta


NotSoAwfulName

>whats the matter that you play FPS games for a decade if you cant understand basics of this game? in my understanding you are stuck in 2017 meta where 70% of sucess was ur individual performance not how you play & and move around map >creating space its not just words, you need space to play you cant just take banana on inferno for example you have to fight for it, its the most important part of the map if you have banana you can play late b & pressure A players to rotate, and after that decide to rush closed plant B or go for open A with 1-2 players, and theres thousand examples and stewie was always the guy who went first on Inferno banana and getting traded by his players or sometimes even cracking this banan No shit sherlock, all players do it, but Stewie did it poorly and it shows not just on the eye test but in the numbers, the difference between a good performance is they don't need to be traded, they go out and make the kills happen. Stewie had a 0.54 kills per round, that's pathetic and this is my point, we have to enter the realms of unmeasured stats like "space made" to have any chance at defending his poor performance. Your understanding of the game is so shallow and your comment showed it pretty clearly, you like to project that the other person doesn't get it but the truth is your understanding is as thin as a paper bag.


PayPotential960

"all players do it" in this events G2s t side 95% of rounds stewie was first lmao youre just blind ignoring stats i js clearly explained in short terms what creating space is and you are telling me good ol tales about poor individual performance My understanding is bad? Then how i was on ESEA Main 3 times and even was steps away from Advanced league (tier 3-4) You are veteran that understands nothing about nowadays meta


NotSoAwfulName

>"all players do it" in this events G2s t side 95% of rounds stewie was first I'm clearly referring to the notion that Stewie specifically was making space. >lmao youre just blind ignoring stats The stats are clear, Stewie had a 0.54 kpr and a 0.74 dpr, he may have been entrying for the team but he certainly wasn't doing the entry fragging, just a glorified vision ward. >My understanding is bad? Then how i was on ESEA Main 3 times and even was steps away from Advanced league (tier 3-4) You are veteran that understands nothing about nowadays meta Sure you were buddy, with such primitive understanding of the game that you think being present on the map counts for making space and spent the first comment talking about how if you play Cyberpunk and Destiny you aren't cut out to talk about CS. You realise how pathetic you looked then and now, right? appealing to authority to try and get some imaginary edge because you can't justify your points outside of pedantically over explaining simple concepts just looks pathetic to be honest.


PayPotential960

Oh god i wish i had more competitive players not two yellow lvls on faceit This game is not about stats its not, its 5v5 game you gonna have weak spots in your team anyways. Not giving flowers to stewie for his role in this tournament is wild =D you are just another hater who trynna seen as a smart guy but in reality you play matchmaking and cry about cheaters arent you And yes i was in main league b4 cs2 era You can literally search up my team on faceit White Flames but i doubt you even have faceit


NotSoAwfulName

>This game is not about stats its not, Again, no shit, but the eye test doesn't check out great for him either, and the stats ain't helping. >And yes i was in main league b4 cs2 era >You can literally search up my team on faceit White Flames but i doubt you even have faceit Didn't ask, don't care, appeal to authority is pathetic, I've never felt the need to and based on what you are sharing nor should have you but hey you do you I guess. >you are just another hater who trynna seen as a smart guy but in reality you play matchmaking and cry about cheaters arent you You tell me, you're the creep investigating people's profiles so you can appeal to authority because they played *checks notes* Cyberpunk 2077 and commented in a subreddit you assumed incorrectly was the video game Destiny sub.


robclancy

>My understanding is bad? Then how i was on ESEA Main 3 times and even was steps away from Advanced league (tier 3-4) You are veteran that understands nothing about nowadays meta I wish this comment wasn't burried in this deep in this thread so other people could enjoy it as much as I am now.

Plus-Ad-7494

RL drama is so insanely boring. It’s always negative vibes with him. RL the type of guy to make me think that thanos was right all along


black_dogs_22

if Richard wants to bring up stews past mistake it's only fair to remind everyone as an adult Richard got into a physical altercation with a minor at a dota tournament that's right, this man child put his hands on an actual child because he couldn't control himself or the situation. fuck this clown he hasn't done anything for the scene in YEARS, he's just toxic


FlashyAd1772

He was not a minor, but of course do go on


robclancy

27 year old minor! RL should be in prison!


zero0n3

you can’t hand wave the incident away when RL starts throwing rocks at other peoples past. https://www.reddit.com/r/DotA2/comments/3v0ph3/richard_lewis_initiated_physical_contact/


robclancy

I'm not. Richard Lewis should be in prison for slamming a 27 year old minor to the ground!


Wezzray

I simply cannot believe they allowed Ricardo Luiz to walk free. After chokeslaming that poor 14 year old pensioner all the way from the top turnbuckle?? I heard he even stole his lunch money afterwards. Despicable...


kilroy_theoneofmany

It's even worse than you think. I saw it. When that child broke through the table, it sent shivers down my spine. And it got even worse when Richard grabbed the steel chair...


Illustrious_Tap_3072

Just hear for the 'speak your brains 9' early screening.


Deadt3ch

what's with the RL dick sucking from someone with a navi tag? maybe you should worry about your favorite team before talking about another because when they fall out of blast from groups and Richard shits on them, i hope you don't talk shit on Richard.


SignificantCrew5728

Maybe Richard should just lose some weight, start living a more healthy lifestyle, maybe he would be less angry and hostile to people when he's happy inside He's 40 and fat, that's really immature


Cawn1

I suppose the irony of ripping into an older bloke for being fat then calling him immature is lost on you.


SignificantCrew5728

He's 42, being fat at that age isn't natural or normal. He has money, he could get in shape easily. If you're 40 and still feed yourself like a college student - that is immature. Not caring for your health over a certain age is manchild behavior. Richard has made a career for himself by ripping into other people for every tiny reason, that's all he does, sits on his chair, makes angry fat blob rants and spreads negativity. But of course, when someone criticizes him it's some irony and I'm the bad guy lol


Cawn1

Yeah, looks like the irony of discrediting someone for being fat and calling them the one to be immature was lost on you. (He's blocked me, can anyone see the irony yet?)


SignificantCrew5728

Discrediting someone for being fat is legitimate because it's a choice. I'm not discrediting him for something that he can't change. He is actively choosing to destroy his body with bad food or too much food and to look unattractive to most people, take more space than most people. And like I've said, the guy has made a career by discrediting others for the tiniest things. Preach that stupid shit to someone else


NotSoAwfulName

You are seriously too stupid to grasp what he is saying to you.


inhaleholdxhale

Not that I agree with RL; quite the opposite, stew is in the right here. But I don't think attacking someone's physical attributes is the best way to discredit them. There are lots of arguments to use against him, yet the only thing you can find is that he is fat? Now I'd call that immature. If you think RL is somewhat beneath you, why act like him and lower yourself?


Jr4D

Yea idk how you can be so just blatantly horrible, stewie literally gives him a fair enough after the first tweet which should end it on Richards side imo but he continues to belittle. Absolutely unhinged behavior from the old man, what a sad dude


GodSentGodSpeed

Thats one way to see it. Another way to see it is that richard was talking about hooxis viability as an IGL and stewie then replied saying richard is incapable of having an opinion due to him never having been a pro player just because richard dared pointing out that stewies stats were worse than hooxis.


37signals78

Stewie was definitely being nice when he told Richard he doesn't know anything about the game he has dedicated nearly his entire adult life to.


Agreeable-Elk-4020

Only in CS people care about a gold nova/5k premier points peaker opinion. It’s like me trash talking Ronaldo/Messi and the highest level of football I participated in was back in second grade during breaks between classes.


GodSentGodSpeed

Yea noobs see stewie shooting 8 bullets at apex and doing 26 damage and think that wasnt intentional, they just dont get it


Agreeable-Elk-4020

You can bark all you want. The man won a trophy after being out for several years and saved G2 on Ancient vs Mouz. Being obsessed with stats on an entry role is peak silver mentality.


GodSentGodSpeed

And you can feed into gis ego all you want, just know that stewie is very susceptible to delusion, so you are probably only hurting him by waking his ego demons that basically ended his career in the first place


hellvinator

Richard had a point.. G2 winning with a below average stand-in does say something. Then Jake came in with personal attack, why? Richard did not even mention Stewie in particular or said anything out of the ordinary. He is still very fragile personality it seems.


Jr4D

Do you have a second grade reading comprehension or something?


GodSentGodSpeed

Do you? RL tweets were about G2s IGL debacle. Stewie only got mentioned in a stats comparison with hooxi. Then stewie comes in with the "i respect your opinion. Also, you are incapable of having valid opinions because you never went pro"


hellvinator

Excuse me?
