i'm nominated for colour commentator of the year and could use your vote, thank you in advance - esportsawards.com/vote
snappi to falcons is reported but not confirmed- don't know if inability to get niko will change things
After countless hours pondering in my goon cave and reading Tea Leaves and rat entrails, my gigabrain speculation is that Flacons buys FaZe, uses Magisk in the interim then courts s1mple when he’s ready to return to CS. S1mple will take the deal because it will be monumental AND he will switch to Rifle while Broky is still on the team. Also the second leg of my parlay is that Magisk winds up on either Heroic or NiP. Bookmark this comment so you all can congratulate me once this happens and I will happily take my analyst role on the desk for the 2025 Blast Zimbabwe Major.
you had me until.. well you still have me
ZIMBABWE 2k25!!!!!!!
Zimbabwe will be the first country to use cs skins as their national currency after they host the 2025 major I heard
probably would be more stable than their current currency too@@stibohoehne
my favourite team of all time only staying together by being bought out by blood money would be cursed monkey paw shit.
Simple and Magisk will replace rain and twistzz. Magisk can transition to IGL once karrigan leaves.
Smash, next question.
LOL
I have a feeling it might also be that Niko might want to stay on a Team with Hunter and to an extent M0nesy, so when G2 said they wouldn't under any circumstance part with M0nesy, that might have been the final nail in the coffin. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Just my thoughts.
Honestly won't be surprised if the top 20 for 2024 looks very similar to recent top 20s. You think Zywoo isn't top 1 with a nerfed AWP? You think Device falls off because he AWPs less? The top 3 to 5 has always been the gods among mortals, you can give them CS3 with antigrav mechanics and a new type of util and they'll still dominate. Them being AWPers is a symptom of their greatness, not the other way around.
Device is well known for being a great hybrid, he can frag with pistol rifle and awp no problem
its a good point
One of the beauty of esports is the variety in culture and countries assembling and celebrating the awesome game!
+GTA 6 Trailer confirmed
I could totally get down with Lau anchor. love your news coverage and takes.
Richard managed to leave esports and still be the goat esports journalist.
Keep 'em coming chief! Commentary on some news about our fav game with your insights from behind the scenes is refreshing. The game is huge so it's only fitting that the content type is extensive. Great watch with a breakfast
Loving the cs2 news vids man :)
Lots of good NA talent to pick from right now actually. JBa, oSee, Tim, Brehze (gamble but totally worth at least a trial), Daps is a good coach (maybe igl again?), Stan is having a good comeback with Forsaken, Steel is back, MarkE is farming on Nouns, Junior is around still, and I think there's some good overlooked talent in Cxzi, JOLZ, and Slight. its a great time to make a NA-based team. With the major only a few months out and CS2 is a hot new game (sticker money at this major is gonna be bonkers!), this is a good business decision bc NA guys are mostly Free Agents.
jba prodigy?
Don't know if you are referring to that team as a gamble or Brehze as a gamble. Brehze and autimatic are by far the best two options in NA to build a team around.
i would love to see brehze come back, but idk if he has the motivation. his later years on EG were abysmal, pretty much farming contract money for as long as possible lmao
if he truly wants to compete again, he should join a lesser team. think stanislaw in forsaken. he should have to prove himself before being in a big org again
@@pooter-zn2hm he’s been grinding pugs on faceit for quite some time now.
@@launders time for the deeeeeeemo
liking the news videos, curious your thoughts on the hltv confirmed segment with zonic and mossad and opinions on the project now that its slightly less of a mystery
another banger from coach lau, love to see it
Love the friendly mention of china! As a europe adoring chinese it’s interesting to realize what i consider as mundane and boring in the cityscapes of my own country can actually bring sci-fi vibes to a westerner. Now i’m inspired to maybe shop for some canadian fashion
Scifi indeed! Just missing some three body problem underground tree cities
Love the news reports😋😋😋
Love the news as always!
More Launders content lets goooo!!!!
Love the news section!
If they did end up buying the FaZe roster to rebrand to Falcons would you still the Snappi transfer or stick with Karrigan? Probably Karrigan to keep the team cohesion but it's an interesting thought experiment I don't think it's as easy of a choice.
Lau whats your hypothesis on valve being so reluctant on bringing back cl_bob options 😭
literally so mad i cant even talk about it
chronically refreshing in anticipation for this video
KEEP THE NEWS VIDEOS COMING BABYYYYY
Thanks anchor Lau!
DO MORE NEWS. You're a delight to listen to LAU
Love the news updates
more of this kind of videos please!
You mentioned Nadeshot talking about team stickers. Do you have a source because I’m interested in hearing about it.
It was from his podcast but the clip is about a year old he talked about coming back to cs
Do we actually KNOW Twistzz is going to liquid? Been an awful lot of radio silence on that front since Faze started winning again.
Idk why he'd move to liquid, it's not the same team he left and they certainly aren't even close to the caliber of Faze.
@@SuperJuicebox24that’s what I was thinking. Unless the contract is a billion dollars it’s not worth it to be on Liquid right now as opposed to Faze who’ve look great since last year
with the niko to falcons deal being "done" and then falling through im afraid the same thing is happening here although I really hope the new liquid roster is real
What you must know is that Faze can't keep the team. Either an org buy them whole or each of them goes separately. Twistz to TL is just one of the possibility (high one at that)
it's probably just drama kings/queens in the players' circle that let this stuff out. cause i mean none of these rumours so far have been really credible.
Gimme da News!!!
Good Video
my favourite caster back at it again
SMOKING ON THAT EG PACK!!!!!!
Dude, you're awesome. Good luck on the award, I voted for you.
Thank you 🙂
nice move with Axed in the title

1 1 1 1 1!!! fuckin love the news, need a spotify podcast for news, thoughts, and more.
Only thing that is sure Bubzkji won t be on Falcons...
I really hope Twistzz doesn’t leave faze. Their roster is truly special
he's already gone bro. :( liquid just don't have any matches until 2024
Falcons and Zonic also said they're operating on a three-year plan as well, they're not considering it an unsuccessful project unless they've achieved nothing by 2025.
i like the rolex lau
I watch a lot of valorant as well as cs, and I thought this meant they were leaving both which confused the hell out of me because they just won the valorant major
I believe they are trying to sell their spots in valorant too but that’s a bit more complicated
actually if u noticed majority of players who are good with awp have a higher sens than only riflers usually and almost because of lower dpi average people struggle when trying to flick which is half of the tings that a good awper should have.
Regarding top CS players, would you say that this year's Top 3 are AWPers again? I wouldnt.
Might be recency bias, but late CSGO (and CS2 now) was so much more team based, that it was much more Ropz and Nikos of the teams, bringing up the round highlights.
i hope cs community discovers donk music in a big way as donk becomes world #1
Sydney or Melbourne Major!
On to the topic of Falcons, they are really in a tough spot right now. They committed too heavily on NiKo for that chance at m0nesy as well and it backfired. If they end up getting Snappi I wouldnt be surprised if they try to take more from ENCE, namely Sunpayus. If they go the FaZe route it becomes more muddied. FaZe's form right now is very good and they will have to either bench BORO who they kept, or play with a new FaZe, one where we don't know how they will perform after releasing Twistzz (possible) + somebody else. I think their next move will be after BLAST, wherever ENCE and FaZe place will determine Falcons' next move if they havent made a move leading up to it.
They could get S1mple tho, so thats something to consider as well.
1:10 😂😂😂 so true
‘I don’t visit countries to visit governments’ Lau 2024
you're my favorite commentator, not just because of your color [commentary]
😎
lau is my favorite brown caster 🍫
I comment to help statistics
I feel bad for Autimatic.. hope he finds a good team.... Possibly TL if he wants to stay in NA
Dad I bought ur shirt, I better get a kiss
Smooches
I was like 100% sure that Niko wouldn't leave G2, it just didn't feel like it yet you know?
Peelay
Anyone know why twistzz has a reason to leave faze? Since they are getting bought out anyways and he’s the only one leaving.
Sad to see how good EG were till Ethan and tarik left.
Wont there be conflict of interest for mezii now that he is in vitality but he also co owns KRU (assuming they get a cs team)
dayne wins
Lionel Mezii the goat
@@launders what do I win? I would really like a kiss on the cheek if its not too much to ask
Ronaldinho is the best football/soccer player of all time. But glad to hear Messi is investing in gaming.
Funny not even a week later BNE finally get an org LOL, literally best timing
I wish China would go ham on cs2, there would be amazing talent coming from that region
Shoutout to EG 💀
MESSIIIIII
Messi is the goat and always will be, this just adds to his greatness ❤🇦🇷
"valve has two things" Counter-Strike:GO and Counter-Strike 2 duh
More news plz
do more thanks :)
yeah neymar plays cs tho...
IDK if donk speaks good English but if he does Falcons should 100% sign him
peele, rauldo and bopeh cryin rn
Do more news!!
DJL incriminating himself before the law lmao
pressing 1
The best awpers, monesy, dev1ce, zywoo, s1mple and so on won’t fall off. They are awpers because they are great players not the other way around
if these elite awpers would still be top 5 in the world with rifles whats to say the elite riflers would not have their way in the vacuum of no awp and meet them at the echelon, if not supersede them, of skill
- humble awp hater
Falcons should get Shiro, Snappi and Dupreeh.
Please make a 1 hour long video just saying footballers names
LMFAO
Fuck it falcons buy out faze team they probably gonna have to disband anyways😂😂
Wait he covered it right after I commented it lool
on one hand, EG leaving is really bad for NA, on the other, it's kind of great
pros:
-no more moronic management of their teams
-NRG has 10 trillion new players to pick from
-NRG is way better of an org than EG
-NRG can pick and choose between EG, forsaken and benched players
cons:
-one less org for NA teams to practice and compete against
-one less org for young talent to look forward to eventually joining
-their current lineup was really promising and now most of those players will be orgless for a while
it would've been really cool to see both EG and NRG compete at the same time, NRG picking up the forsaken core plus oSee and EG hopefully improving, but oh well. NA t2 superteam is possible now, think about it: autimatic, HexT, jBa, stanislaw, oSee, and daps as coach. that team could definitely cheese major stickers every year at least. kinda exciting ngl
especially if the team is more centered around oSee, it could do really well (for NA standards atleast)
Do more news
Nice croatia shirt lol
How they give blameF a fkin fan xD
messi will be like shaq who invested in esport for the hype but will just ignore the team. he has a lot of investment made even outside the esport scene. and seeing how many orgs are failing right now. im not surprise if they only last until end of 2024
pug awping and pro awping are like 2 different worlds the awp was the best weapon in csgo for pugs but at the pro level you needed to be able to make space for yourself in all the utility being thrown and executes making it less powerful especially after the movement nerf which killed Kennys and JW because all they could do was aim very well but couldn't just dry peek a smoke anymore like a rifle. Cs2 the awp is ok in pugs and buttcheeks in pro games which isnt a good thing imo

need a canadian major (preferably in my city of winnipeg) , tell the higherups and lets make it happen after copenhagen.

@@launders this definitely is the only compromise considering its one of the only 3 cities foreigners know LOL id take it
Messi > Raldo
good riddance to the scum org eg 🙂
