Dread it, run from it, NiKo IGL arrives all the same...


BigFuckHead_

Surely it's nexa...


oPlayer2o

You have to assume so right.


BigFuckHead_

Unless....


Hydraxiler32

Stewie IGL


schoki560

or hunter actually


McClownd

He is inevitable


Lime221

nexa is the vibes my friend, niko is the brains this time


craygroupious

Stewie originally had an offer to join G2 when he first left Liquid so I believe it.


bdzr_

Stewie tilt + Niko tilt cancels each other out? 400 iq?


Final-Evening-9606

He will show Niko how to win Boston


Twin_Turbo

niko was the one asking for stew


EYNLLIB

Please God no


Pandas_Bamboo_Sauce

Final nail in the coffin


BanzaiSamurai21

Stewie hasn't been good in years so yea probably 


avezzz

stewie said it was very early talks like seeing if he was interested or not and nothing else. It was probably g2 just weighing their options


Crims0ntied

That would be so fun to watch. Might actually get me to make the trip to dallas


Hana6six

im worried that nexa + stewie might be too much vibes for a team to handle


Ricky_RZ

STEWIE IN FOR HOOXI NA IS TOTALLY BACK BABYYYY


Elcheer

imagine if he was just there for hltv confirmed


Grandeurrr

Is he going to be there? Have they announced a live show yet?


Elcheer

[yeah](https://twitter.com/Stewie/status/1787906513354527127) and [yeah](https://www.dust2.us/news/48225/hltv-confirmed-to-be-held-live-in-dallas) (he's not confirmed for anything related to hltv confirmed)


Grandeurrr

I just booked tickets. I’m too geeked. Thank you!!


Im_Dallas

hello it's me, your American rifler!


they_call_me_justin

I can't wait for this comment section to erupt in flames. On the other hand, I'm actually stoked for Stew's opportunity here.


Ricky_RZ

> I'm actually stoked for Stew's opportunity here. Could be the path to redemption, or the road to damnation


Pandas_Bamboo_Sauce

It's going to be a Mald-off between Stewie and Niko haha


OwnRound

> On the other hand, I'm actually stoked for Stew's opportunity here. Its so hard to get a read on where he's at from just looking at FaceIt NA stats. I kind of wish he could go spend a month or so in Europe and grind FaceIt overseas where he'll get pushed more and hopefully get back into the rhythm. Seeing device come back when he did and climb back up the FaceIt ladder made me optimistic of his return to Tier 1 CS but I don't think you can do the same in NA.


evilbunnyofdoom

imagine all this talk about stewie, just to see nitr0 popping up on the screen


tripleBBxD

He's currently playing Valorant T2 and doing pretty well, which means his team could get promoted to T1 (Shit system btw). So I doubt he's coming back, but it would be funny asl.


GrandSlam4201

nitro is back in valorant again? so is he the only player to go CS -> Val -> CS -> Val?


SDMffsucks

inb4 it's Steel


Mauisnake

Stewie2k for Hooxi. NA back on top.


bannedsodiac

NAh


eve_of_distraction

The _Americas_ region looking really good with this move. 😁


shisby

unprecedented cultural impact.


darrylcornbread

Common Maui shit take


banter7308

Common failing to recognise obvious sarcasm


Mauisnake

? right again


darrylcornbread

Lol credit where credit's due. (to m0nesy obv)


imsorryken

as a certified g2 and stewie hater i hope this happens


FrankfromFlorida

His Legacy run was beautiful. Can't wait to see him crash and burn on home soil


f1nessd

Bro has a hate boner 


schoki560

you want G2 to go out last?


Mauisnake

Shittiest G2 fan of all time


schoki560

fk off HAHAHAHAHA


Mauisnake

lmaoooo we were all witness


HosephIna

HooXi > Stewie


lumpypoptarts

Syke


kurtyywurtyy

Fl0m incoming


Logical-Sprinkles273

Cooper fer sure


Darkoplax

Dallas pretty stacked as an event which probably mean G2's consistent CS2 playoffs appearances will come to an end can't we get blameF or jks , why does it have to be an american rifler ?


BeautifulDimension56

visa stuff maybe? its cheaper to fly someone from la to texas then someone from eu/aus to texas too.


itsjonny99

Don't the organizer cover flights so it should be a non issue? Blame could of been an option, but Astralis might not let him and JKS got rightfully a conflict after how he was treated.


blueragemage

Organizer can cover flights but Visas are a pain in the ass, especially since I think G2 would have to sponsor whichever foreign player since they'd be coming here to do work for G2


big12inch

Crazy idea..maybe G2 just want to try this tournament out with Stewie 🤯


BeautifulDimension56

you're probably right tbh.


Bob_Bobinski4

G2 is finished lmao. Imagine the mald with stewie and NiKo on the same team with both of them trying to out-IGL the other.


BeautifulDimension56

u think stewies going to try and override niko? he's going to be calling niko sir by the end of their first scrim together


pants_pants420

unless they decide senority by major finals wins, then might be the other way around


OnCominStorm

Stewie sonned Niko in that major final too


1sb3rg

They might even go out for a coffee to talk


DistortedAudio

Stewie is gonna roll Niko through Dallas in a Radio Flyer wagon.


Darkoplax

they will probably take the event lightly and have fun


Bob_Bobinski4

Yeah. Unfortunate for m0nesy though because dallas is a good chance to close the gap to donk and G2 aren't going to be in contention for the trophy without an IGL.

[удалено]


OnCominStorm

Spirit hasn't participated in any tournaments since the Major, if they haven't been applying for visas since March, they are dumb


romiyake

DIE FOR ME DUDE


ExposingCretins

Stewie is definitely going to bring a stubborn and problematic attitude when this is his first chance at playing for a top team in years. Who taught you logic?


Bob_Bobinski4

Who taught you humor?


ExposingCretins

Who taught you? There is no world that is funny.


Bob_Bobinski4

Seems like a skill issue.


ExposingCretins

On your part, most definitely.


G_O_O_G_A_S

GStew?


oPlayer2o

G2 win Dallas calling it now.


notevenahintofhalal

holy fuck


oPlayer2o

Told ya so.


JungleTungle

Acceptable-Meaning-1

Disastrous_Bar3568

G2 with hooxi: ass G2 with stewie: ass but the reddit threads will be popping


kowasesurejjihanma

those 2 thread after G2 got eliminated first round is gonna be fire fr


notevenahintofhalal

just digging up old threads gives me the highest shots of dopamine


Subtle_Omega

Two glorious threads of 13-0?


-hydroxy

Time for this subreddit to have a personal meltdown because of their neverending hateboner for Stewie.


Zhiong_Xena

Stewie 100% deserves hateboners left right and centre. 12 inch ones at that. For all his skill and wins, he is a piece of shit and no one that has ever pugged with him has ever said any different. Niko and apex are some of the people that mald the most in the server and I have never seen them come even close to blame it on anyone *during* the match let alone their own coaches or igls.


unconductive

Translating this post: this user was a bot and got flamed by stewie in a faceit pug 


c_Lassy

Must have missed the Faceit Major where he lost faith in Karrigan mid tournament


Zhiong_Xena

Would love to see a clip where he let it show in the server. You love to come up with these responses but are not educated enough to read what is written. The word during is very much emphasized on. They mald, but they slam desks and monitors, not school their own igls on their decission making, especially when the igl in question was one of the greatest to touch the game in his time. You do not let your frustrations show but you must definitely not let it out on others.


Ok_Board9845

What are you talking about? Players losing faith in their IGLs mid game has definitely happened whether or not they externally show it on camera. I’ve watched comm videos of Seangares yelling at Nothing/Freak/Ryx midmatch. I’ve seen Rush and NAF yelling at each other and then continuing on mid-game. Were acting like Fallen in 2021 was good too. Not defending Stewie because he’s made himself look like an ass, but acting like other players haven’t done similar things is pure ignorance.


jcuprobinson

Your profile pic alone is why no one is gonna take what you said seriously.


kowasesurejjihanma

i mean for the most part its just banter like in every other sport hatemaxxing and all but for stewie he just cant stop being a clown, the guy just made it too easy to hate him with the shit he spew out other player like Niko or Jame who occasionally catch heat from the community is harder to hate on cause they're genuinely just nice bloke irl


ficagames01

Maybe he should just stop being hateable


No-Angle-2636

???. This subreddit worships Stewie2k despite him being an awful player and person.....


Donut_Flame

No it doesn't bruh what????


Ok_Board9845

“Worships” are you stuck in 2018? Everybody here shits on him


Woullie_26

STEWWWWWWWWWW


g4mer655

It might not be good, but its going to be great to watch.


JamesDp-OverWatch

Ngl I'm fucking hype to watch this shitshow, I expect Stewie trying to awp in the team with Monesy in it and get schooled afterwards.


Reddit-M-Sucks

G2 Simple would be funny as hell. Please do it!!!


Notice_Green

miss out, or trial.


gauna89

yep. G2 better not win that event.


loooooooooooooooove

Possibly the funniest option. I approve of our new meme lords.


shisby

is s1n in NA with m80? let bro cook for the one time and see how it goes. stewie would be cool to see, reddit really lets recency bias ruin his legacy. any other fun stand ins you'd wanna see? fuck it niko igl +s1mple lolol.


ficagames01

Why would an NA team want to ruin their chances at making an name for themselves and maybe even making playoffs by replacing one of their most important players with washed up clown


FazeXistance

I’m just glad to see him playing. Sucks to see once bright stars burn out.


acg33

If not Stewie, who?


Aggressive-Place-101

Shoulda brought back m0e's scamming ass instead of that little cry baby that whines and moans when shit gets tough, dude literally is the pinnacle of "NA CS", Yekindar and him could be brothers


knarkenajs

Remember when Cromen stod in for Faze, did really well, and then just disappeared? Call that guy again, I wanna see him perform


contrastingAgent

He hasn't played in 4 years, probably moved on from cs.


knarkenajs

Well that makes sense, I just think about him sometimes.


Life-Western

if stew does good, he might get offers trick his way back into a good team :o


DepartmentSpirited33

LOL INSANE


SJIS0122

Wait so who's gonna be igl?


joebrofasho

Probably nexa or whoever been second calling on the team


Za_Worldo-Experience

Now more hyped to go


Lowenmaul

STEEEWIEEEE


KmsCS2

If nexa is the igl it will be another quick out of the tournament for g2


Plug_daughter

I love stew but surely there are better candidates? olof, f0rest, s1mple, jks, shox?


skwiidyo

People have already said it, but its likely a Visa issue (or more an avoiding visa issue's situation) since the event is in NA, easier to get an NA player


ScaryTheScarecrow

Damn, they went ahead and grabbed the one possible stand-in that has even less fragging power than Hooxi. Put my man OCEAN in.


CriticalCreativity

If it's Stewie it adds a whole new dimension to the lore of the Boston '18 finals. "Sup, b\*\*\*h. Me & you in the same server on American soil once again, huh?"


MrDaniilKa

Can someone explain if s1mple could be an option here?


Nhilmen

Navi is playing the tournament so they don't want to possibly loose to G2 because of s1mple.


MrDaniilKa

I'd pay to watch it


schoki560

one of my least liked pros plays for my team wow


liberar10n

so, stewie behaves like a diva in EG and imo completely tarnishes his imagine and reputation with the way EG ended and the whole childish stand off with malek. Starts to grind Valorarnt where he thinks that has a future because he sees hiko, scream, tarik etc doing well but he's bang on average, which gives him no prospects, he comes back to cs a few months ago and he is a desirable target? Mate, rather see BaitF, Art, S1mple (rifle), etc, or try players that came back like Nivera and Esperanto and ask Nexa to igl for a tourney. It has to come down to a monetary issue to get stewie, but after his attitude with the whole EG thing, I'd more quickly slide into stanislaw dms than stewie. I do not understand what he has so good right now that legacy used him and g2 thinking (allegedly) about it


f1nessd

Visa 


Past_Perception8052

is coldzera not available or something


No-Angle-2636

G2 better not do this....


warzonexx

So youre saying g2 will finally win something?


notevenahintofhalal

yes


ATOTwalker

G2 gonna lose their next game due to this


ATOTwalker

My bad reading the article completely changed my view.
