really happy for Niko to be honest. he gets to go home and chill with his family, and get paid hundreds of thousands a month. and also falcons/ Saudi league burning cash without success is also another positive in my book
I mean the only thing I like abt falcons is that probably next season they will buy monesy too with their oil money and that gives us a chance to see them together again. Then we can have Jimmy who was interested to join and siuhy who doesn't have a team join falcons too and the team would be absolutely insane having the best caller second best rifler second best anchor and best awper in the world all in one team. Falcons could pay for that and it would be such a insane sight to see, that's the only reason I am still interested in this org tbh
I honestly do not get the hate that falcons is getting. Sure the Saudi money that funds them isn‘t a good thing but in a scene where over half of the teams are sponsored by gambling sites it shouldn’t really make a difference. If anything gambling money is even worse as the promotion that those online casinos are getting actually changes something for them. The saudis don‘t really gain or loose much from sponsoring team falcons.
You can take Niko out of G2 but not G2 out of Niko. Crazy banger series, 1 v 4 Magisk clutch, brother vs brother action, so many storylines and emotions between the players. Awesome series.
Thats the only play in his falcons career that he has ever done rest of the match especially in ancient he was whiffing a lot of shots. Way past his prime
Niko knew his last chance at getting a major ended in Shanghai and if he cannot get that, at least he made sure him and his family will be set for life. Good move.
Financially, objectively the right move, but for me, it still sucks😕 cause it felt like a very cohesive and wholesome team dynamic, between monesy, niko, hunter and snax (not so much malbs, but that's just cause he hadn't been in g2 for as long)
Absolutely incredible series! I really hope Falcons can play like this regularly, it's very clear this iteration is already a tier 1 team. Neither team has the chemistry they used to have, but it's very clear it's been coming along nicely for both teams. That Heroic trio is actually really a good fit with NiKo, and Magisk played like prime Astralis Magisk second map. Can actually see it working out if they learn to convert their advantages. Lot of blown ones on both teams today.
it's really sad to watch Niko fighting for absolutely nothing here in Falcons. This project needs fresh bloods and a significant amount of time. There is no shortcut through the success.
G2 seems like they are still figuring out how to use every tool they have in their roster. I don't see much hope for this tournament but given time I see G2 again competing with the best teams for titles.
Yep .. they still seem to be a little lost with game planning and setups. Only Hunter seems like the one with a clear plan . I say, make him the IGl and bring in someone else instead of Snax . I dont hate Snax .. I just think Hunter has the better brains and adding another good rifler to the mix would make this team crisp af .
Monesy was really not happy with his own performance, he is extremely talented but need a mental coach to deal with his emotions and stress. He put all the blame on that series on himself.
@@TopOnTopsDonk is a phenomenon and the youngest major winner. Zywoo however is a known choker who dissappear in pressure games and never won a real major. Monesy already schooled him so hard at Dallas playing 3v7 with a washed up wildcard region player+nexa and still winning or at blast Premier world. Even the casters were making fun of it "where is zywoo ? monesy put him in the bin" "Monesy with the Ace, he dominate Ziwoo who hasnt turned up" at Blast Premier world. Don't comment on cs with that kind of knowledge
@@TopOnTopsi always see you hating monesy, chill bro I'm a monesy fan, and in spite of that, i do not hate donk or zywoo, i just want monesy to win as much as possible. However, I'm not blind enough to not see today's poor performance from him. Still believe this will motivate him even more. And, at the end of the day, 2025 has just started, so there's plenty of time to improve.
Imho Falcons looked like the better team and deserved the win . The miscom from Magisk + eco from G2 was the game changer . Degster proved awping is not always about speed n accuracy. And Magisk's clutch was insane!! Gg well fought NiKo and gang . Better luck next time ! Edit : The Hunter 🤨 Niko 🤨 banter was so wholesome . Lol
Dude no gun in the game is not "always" about accuracy. What you gonna do, dance them to death? Positioning gets you so far. Try that against a team like navi and spirit see how far it gets ya
@@symbolitical4158 i didnt say positioning is everything either . What is your point ? .. I just pointed out that degster out-positioned monesy who is considered one of the best , on D2. Thats all ... and this is coming from a g2/monesy fan .

I thought monesy would wipe falcons out But he played bad this game Still a close game coz of dexter awping But falcons still need a consistent good awper Plus a good young blood
happy that niko get paid a lot toward his retirement fund especially for gamer that amount of money would go a long way ig, and also happy to see falcons burning cash without any success, only for profit org wont win against top org that runs by passion
Honestly good match from falcons. Mirage was very close I thought they were gonna win ngl but the passion and determination of g2 beating niko's new team is way stronger still good showing from falcons besides the oil money this team can actually make good results, I'd say magisk is out of his prime but that glock clutch in dust 2 was too fucking impresive still that would'nt be enough to hide his poor preformance 👍
Another decent performance from HeavyGod today, but still classic G2 make me got a heartbreak. Not gonna blame anyone because all of them have shit moment today, lol. G2 still have a long way to go. About Falcons, Im seeing Kyxsan in danger zone for now. Playing in a mountain of money never been easy to stay, you can be replaced at any time if your performance is shit, even for a short period. Hopefully Kyxsan can do something better than this, I hope a lot of hope for him since last year.
@ It's probably that simple, but I wonder if they think any deeper thoughts. I assume they have created some kind of moral justification, worst case the falcon players find killing people for being gay acceptable.
@@cloke3076 that's just bs to be honest. So you quit G2 because of their transfer move and you go to the team that is known for the worst roster moves of the last couple of years.... Yeah he meant money.
zonic needs ZywOo donk NiKo and m0nesy together to win a trophy like how much time does he needs? first ence core who was top 3 now heroic core who were consistently making playoffs, even kyxsan is looking worse under him, give this same falcons lineup to Ash or sAw and they win a trophy in 6 months, they have the talent imo just needs to get rid of zonic if he fails 2 more tournament with this roster.
Nah . Thats all him. Aimlock would make the mouse instant drag onto his head . This was slower and more human. You can see it clearly ... also .. its a lan tournament being played on the organiser's PCs . You think it's that easy to cheat ?. 😂
You know what, I'm worried about G2 rn- HeavyGod is an excellent addition to the roster and now the team has a proper anchor The calling though, it's either they stick with Snax for a full year- or replace him with Siuhy since he's still on the market (Hopefully he still is till summer)

@@Harism_ outside of Teses and maybe kyg, the rest shouldn't be playing in a tier 1 team.
One of the most intense matches in the tournament so far! And its ending is a Win-win situation!
You can take Niko out of G2 but not G2 out of Niko. Crazy banger series, 1 v 4 Magisk clutch, brother vs brother action, so many storylines and emotions between the players. Awesome series.
Yep .. the second best i ve seen after the old G2 vs M80 double series . Those two matches were lit !!
It was fun but predictable. Retired oil money roster will end up lose to real tier 1 teams
niko was g2s 6th player😂
@@frappy0what about snacks ?
That Magisk 1v4 was the best play i've seen this year! This gotta be one of the best clips for 2025
Sadly he is useless 90% of the rest of the time. The guy is the prime example of retired pay check stealer
U joke bro ?
Thats the only play in his falcons career that he has ever done rest of the match especially in ancient he was whiffing a lot of shots. Way past his prime
@@rac8153 bro even in the old falcons with n1ko was magisk was the most consistent, top fragging or 2nd fragging all the time.
Glazer but it was really hype since he ran out of ammo
28:23 prime Magisk moment
ever
Degster and NiKo next to eachother was the shit that I never knew I needed. The energy is electric.
Niko knew his last chance at getting a major ended in Shanghai and if he cannot get that, at least he made sure him and his family will be set for life. Good move.

He cannot retire until he get that major.. he need to go back to G2 after a nice payday from Falcon. Or find a better team by then
those couple of last rounds on the decider WERE INTENSE
NiKO be like: I USED TO PLAY THIS TEAM BEFORE!
They way huNter- glances at NiKo at 52:45 is cold. He's like, I love you my cousin, but I hope you're regretting your decision.
I remember he said that he wants to help Niko win a major....
Hunter and Niko gave handshake and a hug few seconds before. You can see in the full version from the live stream 😊
That was the final of IEM ??? Holly Molly what a game , hats off ❤️
No it Wasnt the Final 😂
Magisk and Niko on the same team is going to be fun to follow, elite duo
33:36 dude so heavy it took him 2 business days to shoot.
😂😂😂
Hahahahahahah
Not heavier than ultimate 😂
But in the end he had a great map 22.15

"Neither team has the chemistry they used to have", my guy what chemistry did Falcons ever have?
its trash vs trash shitshow. g2 is not that strong so hence falcons getting a map and being better doesnt really make them very great
@ very little, but they still had a bit of chemistry with the ence players and the astralis duo lmao.
28:18 🔥
35:00 Hunter has to get that kill
Every G2 game gives me a heart attack🤣
Me too😅

Can't Wait For Navi Vs G2 Old Rivalry

"fight for absolute nothing" LOL what a dumb take
They played well tbh
What "nothing" ? Ma boi fighting for moolah, swimming in Saudi cash

holy shit that magisk clutch was insane @ 28:20
Magisk ace was absolutely insane 😂
2 words. Absolute Cinema.
I feel like Niko saw them push mid last round on mirage and hesitated because of his closeness to G2 which led to their win
People can hate all they want because they dont like Falcons, but taking one of the best teams in the world to the brink isnt a bad start.
wow been a while since ive seen a CS game. NiKo is now in Falcons? What the heck
look at zonic's reaction, that describe the god damn situation of falcone now
The title is crazy, Niko vs mONESY

G2 was in shock, Falcons lost due to small mistakes... This team could give a lot of trouble in the future. -KYXSAN + SIUHY
Oh yes . Siuhy igl would be an awesome addition .
Уфф, очень горячее противостояние
SNAX GOATED !
this was almost like 80 9/11s
I thought monesy would wipe falcons out
But he played bad this game
Still a close game coz of dexter awping
But falcons still need a consistent good awper
Plus a good young blood
24:30 wtf is that pick?
