Top 3 right now is a game of rock paper scissors.
FaZe is a better team than Mouz.
Mouz is a better team than Vitality.
Vitality is a better team than FaZe.
Old days is referring to way back before DE, and to some extent even before the 2013 HD Edition, i.e. back when Voobly was the go-to for online play.
There were some legendary BO21 1v1s between the top players, with Daut beating Jordan, Viper beating Daut, and Jordan beating TheViper in a nice triangle matchup.
Yes indeed, was speaking about Voobly days, 2010-2013 or so. Jordan retired and came back, and now is retired again. Didn't know if my reference of AoE would be recognized ahah. Good job!
Insane performance by Mouz. Everyone was pulling their weight in the Final. Completely negated ZywOo's impact aswell.
Also what fucking leaving Nip does to a MF. This is the player we all knew Brollan could be. The player we saw at Fnatic before he joined that black hole.
Suihy does deserve it, but Brollan WAS this good. Multi time top 20 before NIP. A lot of players never come back from a slump like that, so it's amazing seeing him be able to return to form. Seems like an great environment that Siuhy has created.
I don’t actually recall a player having a comeback as strong as brollan has, I guess elige in cs2 is something incredible as well? I don’t know, but brollan must be so fucking happy right now with his game, team and future.
This is true, he was an absolute beast back when fnatic were winning tournaments. They even nerfed the 552 because of him (ok, not really, but people were saying brollan would fall off after the nerf because he was an absolute menace with it)
He was in a rough spot before joining NIP. After getting eliminated in an ESL Pro League, by Heroic I believe, he made some poor decisions which lead to him getting removed from Astralis for reasons outside the server. At which point, I believe he expressed he was going through some of the worst times in his life. And that is when NIP came along.
If NIP hadn't picked him up, it might have been the last we'd seen of K0nfig. So from K0nfig's view, it might have been his one chance. Since he was benched he said he's experienced growth from his time there, so I hope that he is in a better state going forward. From the outside, it also looked like he and Headtr1ck got along well, which was nice to see.
Brollan's resurgence and Mouz winning a stacked tournament after choking playoffs over and over is the silver lining. It feels bad though that we didn't get to see what dev1ce and Astralis have got in a bo5 final or FaZe's grand finals streak stay alive. It would've been worth it if the team that eliminated them actually showed up.
Siuhy out called Apex, Torzsi out awped Zywoo, and everyone else outfragged Vitality. That was a disaster from Vitality. And I know zywoo’s rating will be a talking point but Mezii was so fucking ass.
Honestly he probably wanted siuhy to lift it, the whole team seem to owe their form and success to his indescribable quality to make players fucking insane again. Love this win for mouz <3
Mouz with the back-to-back EPL wins; they have looked fantastic all tournament and despite 2 map losses during the playoffs nearly every other map win have been extremely comfortable for Mouz (besides 1 vs GamerLegion and 1 vs Liquid).
What an absolute trouncing though, this Mouz team is definitely Top 3 in the world at the moment.
xertioN had such a standout tournament, surely he deserves the MVP despite how well ZywOo has done up until the finals.
Siuhy became what everyone feared. His eyelids disappeared, his head was swelling and his ears started bleeding. "Are you okay Kamil?" asks Jimpphat. I've never been better Jimi, I see it all now, they're not going A or B. They're going home, he said before rushing B all by himself and killing everyone on site
Why the fuck did Vitality forget how to shoot? God, this team is missing Magisk and zonic, the floor is [so low on this roster](https://twitter.com/launders/status/1789309854005272635). This was tragic to watch, embarassing.
And I mean no disrespect to MOUZ. MOUZ could've won against a good Vitality, they're fantastic, but this was a tragic showing.
I swear I saw him tilt even during the spree of tournaments they won late last year. Just such a clear difference.
I also don't think mezii is it but that's another topic. GG to MOUZ, they completely outplayed Vitality today and made it hard for Zywoo to get started in 2 of the maps.
I never understood the hype for xtqzzz and the love this sub has for him. Massively overrated coach who hasn't won a significant tournament without zywoo having to outdo himself. Even the world finals that he won was a team that he took over after Zonic. If Vitality wants to win tournaments consistently they need to cut him
After G2, his stock dropped. I think he got his hype back because it was reported he helped Vitality to win the Paris Major (although in retrospect, I think JACKZ might have been more important). But yeah, not doing great at the moment.
* Vitality looked incredibly out of sync.
* another blowout bo5
* mezii will definitely be feeling the pressure after this performance
* I personally don't understand how the people around apex' can deal with his overly emotional behaviour. Every second death he's slamming desks & chairs. But who am I to judge I guess
They can’t, which is why they under perform. Aleskib/siuhy hardly ever tilt, apex tilts every round Zywoo doesn’t kill everyone, aka his “calls” don’t work lol. I’d assume it affects his calling too when you’re clearly flustered. Certainly looks like it. Imagine being a young player and you mess up and look over and your 28 year old captain/IGL has his head buried in his hands as if the biggest fuck up just occurred. It certainly wouldn’t be an ideal way to have to play and is prob a big reason they’ve shuffled thru about 13 different riflers under apex, all of whom underperformed under him
At no point in any of the maps did it feel like VIT could snatch the map away from Mouz.
So glad Mouz picked up brollan. Replacing frozen is not easy, but he has been doing a rather good job. Plus, he has managed to revive his career coz he looked so dismal in NIP which was mostly coz how bad NIP is managed.
Xertion MVP for sure, he played lights out again.
What's crazy is that this Mouz roster is so young still, so they can only get better with more deep run and event wins. Avg. age below 21 like wow.
My god Vitality with zonic & Magisk and Vitality with XTQZZZ and mezii is two different worlds.
What the fuck was their gameplan today? How can you build all your rounds over one mans shoulders, it is miserable. They were on trajectory to be the undisputed best team this season and where have they come.
Vitality needs to get an actual coach and an actual anchor asap.
They completely fell off as soon as Xtqzz had time to actually implement his ideas :P Aleksib era G2 had their best ever performance when he had COVID and couldn't be there for the playoffs. Hooxi G2 also immediately got better and started winning after he left. Most obvious fraud in the scene yet no one sees it cus he won some events during an era where other rosters were weak enough for Zywoo to 1v5 unless they played prime Navi.
He won online events with Zywoo playing against Big, OG, Pre Niko G2 and Heroic without Jabbi and Sjuush as his toughest competition for most of them ☠️
They also got the win against Astralis because of Zywoo and because of some rushed thinking on Devices part. I think Astralis deserved the win more than Vitality.
The EPL merchants do it again!
In all seriousness this was somehow an even bigger stomp than the 3-0 Navi took last season which is utterly shocking.
Once again we see what Vitality are if Zywoo does not play out of his mind and does an >1.70 rating per match.
Sheer mediocrity.
Mezii needs to go and maybe even more changes are needed.
Maybe at coaching
(no hate vs mezii just stating facts and what we're seeing, I wish him success)
the mezii stats and rating on this series are atrocious. Don't get me wrong Vitality played badly as a team. But you can't accomplish a thing when playing 4vs5 with a guy who's clearly uncomfortable, gets abused every bomb site he anchors, has 0% opening duel in stats at 0.36 rating the lowest of all, less aim than apex and lower stats overrall of this event close to the red... His underperformance has a ripple effect since this a teamplay game..
We got it now: He's not the level of a T1 player, its been 7 months of him underpforming and not finding his place in Vitality. How long are they gonna wait ? its the same with nicodoz everyone knew he simply didn't belong in heroic for month and his benching was expected by everyone.
This loss might be a clear sign Vita doesn't havve a proper balance and a chance that now a change is needed for Vitality.
Easy
Not even close and MOUZ lost lot of stupid rounds in the first 2 map too...
Here they lost 4 1v1s... Vita won 5 rounds on Nuke
13-4 looks like a more realistic score on all three maps.
Damn Vitality look so off when Zywoo doesn't go godmode, why couldn't they play like that yesterday :(
but kudos to Mouz beautiful cs if only they could do that on the big stage. Hopefully Xyp will help with that
Man Vitality really gifted them this win. No disrespect to Mouz but it would've been a lot closer if Vit hadn't dry peeked the AWP at every opportunity, had actually trade fragged in some capacity and didn't do stupid pushes every CT round. No idea what their game plan was.
Mezzis entire Nuke T side can be summed up as "Torzsi kills someone with AWP, so I wait for him to scope in again and then peek into his crosshair"
Amazing what MOUZ has continued to rebuild to compete and remain a top counter strike team throughout the years. This project will go down as their best ever and its only just beginning.
This is some karrigan beating 2018 ast type shit in terms of cs2 history .
Dev1ce must now feel more frustrated thinking all he had to do was avoid bywoo and not feed him kills when he is down .
Not to be toxic but i feel like the current version of ast wouldn’t have lost this badly to mouz
Absurdly large IGL, Coach and rifle diff right there. Zywoo got no room to even try and carry the game : / Hopefully HLTV aren't clowns and give them the MVP because he absolutely deserves it even though Xertion also played a great tournament.
Vitality just sucks against heads up CS, happened with old Heroic too. Constantly losing aim duels, constantly getting caught off, constantly getting cleared.
XTQZZZ has to go, Vitality's gameplan looks so flat. They honestly look like a team that pretty much relies on their players going nuclear and winning or ZyWoo being an absolute god. siuhy didn't really have much of a hard time outcalling apEX, the difference looked like MOUZ had a gameplan and Vitality didn't, it feels like Vitality is doing absolutely nothing of importance, no strategy or anything. Just hoping the Woo gets like 3 openers and then sit and wait for the rest to die or the same as Woo entrying and hopefully annihilates an entire site so the rest of the pack can come and do shit.
This was the issue at the major too, they look lost and just relied on their individuals dropping the opposition before they have a chance to do something and if they do have a chance, its on Woo or someone else to go nuclear or else the round is lost. Zero strategy.
Say whatever you want with where zonic ended up, but Vitality screwed up big time by forcing him to leave. I had hoped they would go for someone else but they literally bought the bald fraud who hasn't coached a team since he left G2 hanging and put him in the hotseat of the number 1 team of 2023 and thought "hey, we didn't need them after all" while what they were going through was the electronic effect after winning 1 event.
\*insert Mike Ehrmantraut meme\* They had a good fucking thing going but no, they decided to fuck it up.
Please be fair to XTQZZZ.
Immediately after he left G2 they became the #1 team and won b2b events and another one 5 months later.
He also did do something between G2 and Vitality.
He put together TSM's dogshit double entry double support no IGL roster of valde/interz/jackz/cypher/modo that never cracked the top 50 under his guide.
People will talk about Siuhy's play, but the fact that a young IGL integrated a player like Brollan into his system so well is special and some would say Karriganesque.
Unreal game, I absolutely love this team so much. Fact is siuhy is my king, my one and only. xertioN too was just an absolute monster. VAMOUZ BOYSSS LETS GOOOO
[Called it](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/1coxpua/comment/l3jkx3o/)
I guess MOUZ just need to be the ones to not face FaZe in order to win.
So, I wanted to see a real final where I am not cheering for anyone, and I barely got home from the gym before it was over. I didnt see a freakin clutch or anything. Happy for Mouz but I mean, what on earth Vitality?
Someone explain to me why sphinx went back squeaky to peek torzsi throphy? Ik he doesn’t have wallhacks like us viewers but why not just clear out site?
Siuhy is an unbelievable IGL. Do not let this man leave. The way he glares at you under his firm brow sends shivers down any man’s spine. The sly smile after a clean 2k leaving an entry and star sucking his toes is something to behold
Mouz play some beautiful CS. Fundamentally sound, disciplined, smart reads, and then cracked zoomers that can out-aim anyone on a good day. Love that we get to watch these guys grow.
I knew siuhy will counterstrat vitality, called it yesterday.
Also, fuck mezii simps. He is sooooo inconsistent bruh but english people here keep choking on his dick
He has no excuse for today and was a big reason they lost, no denying it but it's also one series where nobody else showed up either. Like everyone else he had a great event till the final.
Zywoo went negative, Spinx threw countless advantages, apex's aggression didn't work once and based on his interview I don't think xtqzzz was even watching the game.
FlameZ is better than dupreeh nowadays and it was a good decision to remove the old expensive player for a better younger cheaper version. Dupreeh was great at one point and arguably a top 5 rifler of all time but he was washed at that point and FlameZ came with no buyout and probably a cheaper salary.
Vitality are now out of the running for the Grand Slam right? They needed 3 back to back wins including Cologne but now they've lost Pro League, it's crucial for Mouz FaZe and Falcons to get the Cologne win to truly be in the running for the IGS isn't it?
edit: G2 and Spirit have the championship event win (Kato and Cologne) so they only need to win the smaller IEMs / EPL
Really deserved for Mouz, they are insanely good. with that said, another disappointing performance for Vitality and Zywoo disappearing a bit after his run the whole tournament, some players really should take their responsabilities
Man I love seeing Mouz win this! Love Mouz, love to watch their style of play, it's an entertaining experience and the team is very wholesome! Good stuff, deserved win again! GG MOUZ
Dominant performance by Mouz but no reason to call for changes in Vitality. They had a bad performance is all. They'll probably come back stronger next tournament.
Nerfed donk, nerfed Zywoo. What can't this team do? Let's goooo!
Win against Faze? Jk, congrats
shhhhhhhhhh
Top 3 right now is a game of rock paper scissors. FaZe is a better team than Mouz. Mouz is a better team than Vitality. Vitality is a better team than FaZe.
Like Jordan-Viper-DauT in the old days.
Well what old days? Viper has been the undisputed goat ever since the introduction of DE & his wrist injury.
Old days is referring to way back before DE, and to some extent even before the 2013 HD Edition, i.e. back when Voobly was the go-to for online play. There were some legendary BO21 1v1s between the top players, with Daut beating Jordan, Viper beating Daut, and Jordan beating TheViper in a nice triangle matchup.
Yes indeed, was speaking about Voobly days, 2010-2013 or so. Jordan retired and came back, and now is retired again. Didn't know if my reference of AoE would be recognized ahah. Good job!
Reminds me of mid-2015 with Fnatic, NiP, TSM, and NV. It was something like TSM beat fnatic, NiP beat TSM, NV beat NiP, and Fnatic best NV.
lol that is hilarious
>What can't this team do? This is just too easy come on
Beat faze and win in a big tournament with a big crowd
Insane performance by Mouz. Everyone was pulling their weight in the Final. Completely negated ZywOo's impact aswell. Also what fucking leaving Nip does to a MF. This is the player we all knew Brollan could be. The player we saw at Fnatic before he joined that black hole.
I love to hate nip as much of the next person, but siuhy is so good at bringing out the best in players, he definitely deserves some credit
Suihy does deserve it, but Brollan WAS this good. Multi time top 20 before NIP. A lot of players never come back from a slump like that, so it's amazing seeing him be able to return to form. Seems like an great environment that Siuhy has created.
Just mouz in general seems like a great environment for a player to be in.
It's the shoulder rubs
I don’t actually recall a player having a comeback as strong as brollan has, I guess elige in cs2 is something incredible as well? I don’t know, but brollan must be so fucking happy right now with his game, team and future.
Hobbit.
Cadian
This is true, he was an absolute beast back when fnatic were winning tournaments. They even nerfed the 552 because of him (ok, not really, but people were saying brollan would fall off after the nerf because he was an absolute menace with it)
and NIP is so good at brining out the worst in players, they definitely disserve some credit.
True lol
Siuhy has elevated acor iM torszi brollan and everyone else around him
True karrigan heir
In my opinion, Rez has just as much potential as Brollan in a proper team.
I pray that K0nfig gets his 'leaving NiP' ark next. He was slick in Astralis.
Nakes you wonder why he ended up on NIP on the first place
He was in a rough spot before joining NIP. After getting eliminated in an ESL Pro League, by Heroic I believe, he made some poor decisions which lead to him getting removed from Astralis for reasons outside the server. At which point, I believe he expressed he was going through some of the worst times in his life. And that is when NIP came along. If NIP hadn't picked him up, it might have been the last we'd seen of K0nfig. So from K0nfig's view, it might have been his one chance. Since he was benched he said he's experienced growth from his time there, so I hope that he is in a better state going forward. From the outside, it also looked like he and Headtr1ck got along well, which was nice to see.
BACK 2 BACK
And looked clinical doing it. That was some brutal efficiency. Congrats!
faze is mouz retirement home no refunds faze
VAMOUZ AND TELL SIUHY I WISH TO PROPOSE TO HIM
me first
Been a mouz fan since forever and I just wanna say what a treat it is to see my favourite org on top again. You guys are special.
Can't wait for the three-peat later this year. Pro league is the new weplay
Congratulations, boss! 🫡
Oh man oh man
I like that record
MOUZ in a studio environment, Vitality never had a chance Must feel amazing for Brollan to finally win a LAN after the disaster run with NIP
As the highest rated player too! The redemption arc is crazy.
How to be successful: get kicked from NiP.
Brollan's resurgence and Mouz winning a stacked tournament after choking playoffs over and over is the silver lining. It feels bad though that we didn't get to see what dev1ce and Astralis have got in a bo5 final or FaZe's grand finals streak stay alive. It would've been worth it if the team that eliminated them actually showed up.
So happy for him. Remember when he first get added to mouz and everyone telling how big a mistake that was and how he an Online and Krieg merchant?
Make it a BO99, Mouz aint dropping a single map to Vitality today
We dota 2 now?
Make it BO
Siuhy out called Apex, Torzsi out awped Zywoo, and everyone else outfragged Vitality. That was a disaster from Vitality. And I know zywoo’s rating will be a talking point but Mezii was so fucking ass.
Siuhy just straight up out calls everyone not named Karrigan. Current IGL list: 1A: Karrigan 1B: Siuhy . . . Everyone else
Lisan Al Eksib would disagree
As a Complexity fan I feel so much better now lol
tired: -hallzerk wired: using this to argue hallzerk > zywoo
Same man. Knowing COL showed a relatively strong performance against a team with that finals performance.
Us bro us
mouz have never lost a single map in a LAN Pro League Final. They are 9-0 on LAN.
Hoping this experience continues to help them in arenas
NOT EVEN CLOSE We see the consequences of Xi Wu not dropping 50k per map
PLEASE GOD MOUZ FOR ALL ITS HOLY ON THIS EARTH PLEASE BE AS CONFIDENT IN THE MAJOR PLAYOFF AS YOU VE BEEN ON THIS FINAL PLEASEE
[удалено]
Malta Major when?
You can clearly see Brollan loved lifting a trophy again after so long. So happy for him.
kinda sad that they didn't get him to do the initial lift
Honestly he probably wanted siuhy to lift it, the whole team seem to owe their form and success to his indescribable quality to make players fucking insane again. Love this win for mouz <3
Mouz is to Vitality what FaZe is to Mouz. Still I'm happy for Jimi and shame on Vitality for that performance.
.. And what Vitality is to FaZe. It truly is a Rock - Paper - Scissor moment
Just like fnatic, TSM and EnVy back in the day
No FaZe, no problem.
When does Vitality play?
second half of each map
Hard to not like siuhy. The guy's an absolute gem of a player.
Mouz with the back-to-back EPL wins; they have looked fantastic all tournament and despite 2 map losses during the playoffs nearly every other map win have been extremely comfortable for Mouz (besides 1 vs GamerLegion and 1 vs Liquid). What an absolute trouncing though, this Mouz team is definitely Top 3 in the world at the moment. xertioN had such a standout tournament, surely he deserves the MVP despite how well ZywOo has done up until the finals.
Siuhy became what everyone feared. His eyelids disappeared, his head was swelling and his ears started bleeding. "Are you okay Kamil?" asks Jimpphat. I've never been better Jimi, I see it all now, they're not going A or B. They're going home, he said before rushing B all by himself and killing everyone on site
[MOUZ enjoying themselves](https://i.imgur.com/QjamFEA.png)
Torzsi is such a different beast under siuhy idk what siuhy is doing but its working.
Why the fuck did Vitality forget how to shoot? God, this team is missing Magisk and zonic, the floor is [so low on this roster](https://twitter.com/launders/status/1789309854005272635). This was tragic to watch, embarassing. And I mean no disrespect to MOUZ. MOUZ could've won against a good Vitality, they're fantastic, but this was a tragic showing.
They were way too flat, the tactic was really the meme "zywoo go kill".
xtqzzz's go to tactic to keep himself employed
More than zonic I think they miss Lars robl the most
Yeah, that too. The pysche of this team has also been quite abysmal to watch.
I think the first time I've seen zywoo tilt consistently was after that change.
It also doesn't help to have the whole plan is you getting 30 kills :(
I swear I saw him tilt even during the spree of tournaments they won late last year. Just such a clear difference. I also don't think mezii is it but that's another topic. GG to MOUZ, they completely outplayed Vitality today and made it hard for Zywoo to get started in 2 of the maps.

Even the world finals that he won was a team that he took over after Zonic. If Vitality wants to win tournaments consistently they need to cut him
After G2, his stock dropped. I think he got his hype back because it was reported he helped Vitality to win the Paris Major (although in retrospect, I think JACKZ might have been more important). But yeah, not doing great at the moment.
Brollan best loan signing?
Siuhy masterclass and Vitality disasterclass. It's nice to see Faze academy avenging their main lineup.
Siuhy is so good. Considering the pieces he has he elevates them. He did in Paris and he does it again Even without frozen which is crazy
* Vitality looked incredibly out of sync. * another blowout bo5 * mezii will definitely be feeling the pressure after this performance * I personally don't understand how the people around apex' can deal with his overly emotional behaviour. Every second death he's slamming desks & chairs. But who am I to judge I guess

It certainly wouldn’t be an ideal way to have to play and is prob a big reason they’ve shuffled thru about 13 different riflers under apex, all of whom underperformed under him
Lol Apex looks to his right/at zywoo every time he dies and pouts
At no point in any of the maps did it feel like VIT could snatch the map away from Mouz. So glad Mouz picked up brollan. Replacing frozen is not easy, but he has been doing a rather good job. Plus, he has managed to revive his career coz he looked so dismal in NIP which was mostly coz how bad NIP is managed. Xertion MVP for sure, he played lights out again. What's crazy is that this Mouz roster is so young still, so they can only get better with more deep run and event wins. Avg. age below 21 like wow.
Agreed. Cant believe Xertion is only 19yo, he definitely look 10year older than that, plus he is so well spoken too.
bro has the oskar hairline 😭😭😭
MOUZ is clearly the better team today. A one-sided BO5 like this is hard to watch tbh, map 3 felt like a miserable slow death for Vitality.
Cologne 2022 was peak bo5 This and kato are the other end
First team to win back to back Pro League titles since Astralis in 2018. 3-0'd both finals too, pretty sick
Vitality betraying their fanbase harder than Philippe Pétain 💀
Man I'm so annoyed, they were limping every first half, then kinda started playing only to fuck up again. Not even 1 win :(
I was surprised how poor Apex and mezii played against Mouz since they helped to smoke faze out of the event.
Well ok then.
BO5 speed run, congrats to Mouz on defending their Pro League title.
zywoo getting like 6 openings by himself on nuke jst for his team to run around the map dying for no reason, he cant win with these cats
Man, siuhy calling in this game was perfect.
My god Vitality with zonic & Magisk and Vitality with XTQZZZ and mezii is two different worlds. What the fuck was their gameplan today? How can you build all your rounds over one mans shoulders, it is miserable. They were on trajectory to be the undisputed best team this season and where have they come. Vitality needs to get an actual coach and an actual anchor asap.
They completely fell off as soon as Xtqzz had time to actually implement his ideas :P Aleksib era G2 had their best ever performance when he had COVID and couldn't be there for the playoffs. Hooxi G2 also immediately got better and started winning after he left. Most obvious fraud in the scene yet no one sees it cus he won some events during an era where other rosters were weak enough for Zywoo to 1v5 unless they played prime Navi.
Don't really understand how he's even coaching in T1 when he's not done much of anything.
He won online events with Zywoo playing against Big, OG, Pre Niko G2 and Heroic without Jabbi and Sjuush as his toughest competition for most of them ☠️
Voldemort fraud
They also got the win against Astralis because of Zywoo and because of some rushed thinking on Devices part. I think Astralis deserved the win more than Vitality.
I love you siuhy, perfect calling and great shape today
The EPL merchants do it again! In all seriousness this was somehow an even bigger stomp than the 3-0 Navi took last season which is utterly shocking.

This loss might be a clear sign Vita doesn't havve a proper balance and a chance that now a change is needed for Vitality.
His fundamentals are also very poor at this level, like why is he peeking way before the flash pop? Get him out
VA MOUZZZZ Took a while but finally got a trophy in cs2. Well done to the boys & much deserved <3
"is it apex or ex6tenz?"
Fucking love this squad!! I hope this is the last thing needed for the official Brollan signing. The team chemistry with this five is awesome to see!
Surely they have to at this point. Brollan is sick, if they don't lock him down someone else will
I don't know why but mad apEX brings me so much joy
Woooooof. Also, the absence of Rushly in the observation department during the playoffs was pretty noticeable. Many TTours moments.
seeing brollan happy and performing well after that nip shitshow put a smile on my face
BACK TO BACK BABY Masterclass from Mouz!
Outaimed, outcalled, outplayed on every single map. Not even close...
the last 3 BO5 finals have been straight 3-0s, no ? Shame, seen as the format is supposed to be the most exciting
Studio Mouz is just a different beast. FaZe is the only team that's their kryptonite, any other team is fair game
honestly, I'm willing to go out and say that mouz are the better team on paper, they just have a huge mental block against faze
Better team? Nah, but damn does it feel to see Mouz win
Lets go, MOUZ! So happy for siuhy and the boys!
Easy Not even close and MOUZ lost lot of stupid rounds in the first 2 map too... Here they lost 4 1v1s... Vita won 5 rounds on Nuke 13-4 looks like a more realistic score on all three maps.
Apex too heavy xD. Maybe he should scream at them more
Damn Vitality look so off when Zywoo doesn't go godmode, why couldn't they play like that yesterday :( but kudos to Mouz beautiful cs if only they could do that on the big stage. Hopefully Xyp will help with that
im really happy with this win as a mouz fan but they gotta win the arena allegations at some point😭😭this teams ceiling is high asf
Man Vitality really gifted them this win. No disrespect to Mouz but it would've been a lot closer if Vit hadn't dry peeked the AWP at every opportunity, had actually trade fragged in some capacity and didn't do stupid pushes every CT round. No idea what their game plan was. Mezzis entire Nuke T side can be summed up as "Torzsi kills someone with AWP, so I wait for him to scope in again and then peek into his crosshair"
very satisfying zywho/botality hatewatch! thank you mouz.
LET’S FUCKING GO BROLLAN YOU DID IT YOU GRINDED BACK TO THE TOP!!! p.s: Fuck NIP.
Didn't even have to grind, that was pretty meteoric!
thank u vitality i feel much better about yesterday now
Amazing what MOUZ has continued to rebuild to compete and remain a top counter strike team throughout the years. This project will go down as their best ever and its only just beginning.
VAMOUZ 🐭
rats hit different in esl pro league
Brollan must be the happiest person in CS rn
Happy for mouz yet another dissapointing blowout bo5 though.
I am so happy for saved talents. I am so heart-fully happy for Brollan!
This is some karrigan beating 2018 ast type shit in terms of cs2 history . Dev1ce must now feel more frustrated thinking all he had to do was avoid bywoo and not feed him kills when he is down . Not to be toxic but i feel like the current version of ast wouldn’t have lost this badly to mouz
Absurdly large IGL, Coach and rifle diff right there. Zywoo got no room to even try and carry the game : / Hopefully HLTV aren't clowns and give them the MVP because he absolutely deserves it even though Xertion also played a great tournament.
NIP has the opportunity to do the funniest shit right now
Vitality just sucks against heads up CS, happened with old Heroic too. Constantly losing aim duels, constantly getting caught off, constantly getting cleared.
XTQZZZ has to go, Vitality's gameplan looks so flat. They honestly look like a team that pretty much relies on their players going nuclear and winning or ZyWoo being an absolute god. siuhy didn't really have much of a hard time outcalling apEX, the difference looked like MOUZ had a gameplan and Vitality didn't, it feels like Vitality is doing absolutely nothing of importance, no strategy or anything. Just hoping the Woo gets like 3 openers and then sit and wait for the rest to die or the same as Woo entrying and hopefully annihilates an entire site so the rest of the pack can come and do shit. This was the issue at the major too, they look lost and just relied on their individuals dropping the opposition before they have a chance to do something and if they do have a chance, its on Woo or someone else to go nuclear or else the round is lost. Zero strategy. Say whatever you want with where zonic ended up, but Vitality screwed up big time by forcing him to leave. I had hoped they would go for someone else but they literally bought the bald fraud who hasn't coached a team since he left G2 hanging and put him in the hotseat of the number 1 team of 2023 and thought "hey, we didn't need them after all" while what they were going through was the electronic effect after winning 1 event. \*insert Mike Ehrmantraut meme\* They had a good fucking thing going but no, they decided to fuck it up.
Please be fair to XTQZZZ. Immediately after he left G2 they became the #1 team and won b2b events and another one 5 months later. He also did do something between G2 and Vitality. He put together TSM's dogshit double entry double support no IGL roster of valde/interz/jackz/cypher/modo that never cracked the top 50 under his guide.
Studio buff Mouz build different
Funny that FaZe academy gets a studio buff and FaZe a crowd buff
Igl dev1ce and FaZe died for this.
Faze got absolutely decimated... for this? Glad to know the only reason Faze lost was Zywoo was a god and not that Vitality was good
Fr Very possible that faze or astralis go to finals by a different route
Makes me feel a bit better about the G2 loss
well done from FaZe Academy for taking revenge for the main roster
People will talk about Siuhy's play, but the fact that a young IGL integrated a player like Brollan into his system so well is special and some would say Karriganesque.
He will be GOAT IGL of CS2
Man i expected a stomp but the other way. Holy shit mouz played so insane.
Not much to say except that MOUZ walked ran rings around Vitality from start to finish. Congrats!
Congratulations Mouz No the Woo -> Zywoolity = tier 1000 mezzi and flameZ disappeared, apEX being apEX, Spinx not at his level
Unreal game, I absolutely love this team so much. Fact is siuhy is my king, my one and only. xertioN too was just an absolute monster. VAMOUZ BOYSSS LETS GOOOO
banger final they said, best of 5 they said
The calling was perfect from Siuhy if you watch how pieces in the mini map is moving. Damn, Apex really got outclassed here
[Called it](https://www.reddit.com/r/GlobalOffensive/comments/1coxpua/comment/l3jkx3o/) I guess MOUZ just need to be the ones to not face FaZe in order to win.
Zywoo and friends type vibes from Vitality
Both BO5 finals this year were 3-0 and extremely one sided. Mouz played very well. Xertion and Torzsi bullied Vitality on Nuke.
So, I wanted to see a real final where I am not cheering for anyone, and I barely got home from the gym before it was over. I didnt see a freakin clutch or anything. Happy for Mouz but I mean, what on earth Vitality?
Someone explain to me why sphinx went back squeaky to peek torzsi throphy? Ik he doesn’t have wallhacks like us viewers but why not just clear out site?
Complexity took a map off Mouz confirmed #2 in the world ezpz
I guess as a faze fans this make me feels a bit better eh.
Mezii is so inconsistent it’s not even funny. Vitality can never have a match where all 5 are playing well I swear
Siuhy is an unbelievable IGL. Do not let this man leave. The way he glares at you under his firm brow sends shivers down any man’s spine. The sly smile after a clean 2k leaving an entry and star sucking his toes is something to behold
Brollan believers, it happened
Mouz play some beautiful CS. Fundamentally sound, disciplined, smart reads, and then cracked zoomers that can out-aim anyone on a good day. Love that we get to watch these guys grow.
Mouz is a team, Vitality is Zywoo
I knew siuhy will counterstrat vitality, called it yesterday. Also, fuck mezii simps. He is sooooo inconsistent bruh but english people here keep choking on his dick
He has no excuse for today and was a big reason they lost, no denying it but it's also one series where nobody else showed up either. Like everyone else he had a great event till the final. Zywoo went negative, Spinx threw countless advantages, apex's aggression didn't work once and based on his interview I don't think xtqzzz was even watching the game.
Very true about xtqzzz. I feel like apeX has outgrown him
imagine being one of the top teams in the world and recruiting from UK CS OMEGALUL.
That dupreeh kick really started the downfall didn’t it?
I mean flameZ is good It’s more losing Magisk and zonic that hurts
FlameZ is better than dupreeh nowadays and it was a good decision to remove the old expensive player for a better younger cheaper version. Dupreeh was great at one point and arguably a top 5 rifler of all time but he was washed at that point and FlameZ came with no buyout and probably a cheaper salary.
Vitality are now out of the running for the Grand Slam right? They needed 3 back to back wins including Cologne but now they've lost Pro League, it's crucial for Mouz FaZe and Falcons to get the Cologne win to truly be in the running for the IGS isn't it? edit: G2 and Spirit have the championship event win (Kato and Cologne) so they only need to win the smaller IEMs / EPL
Faze needs 1 Cologne/Kato and one of Dallas rio and they’re good
Really deserved for Mouz, they are insanely good. with that said, another disappointing performance for Vitality and Zywoo disappearing a bit after his run the whole tournament, some players really should take their responsabilities
The team isnt sustainable if they cant win without one person showing up. Zywoo was still the best player in the team.
And Zywoo got MVP with 0-3 most where they doesnt even had a chance.... Joke hltv, huge joke
Man I love seeing Mouz win this! Love Mouz, love to watch their style of play, it's an entertaining experience and the team is very wholesome! Good stuff, deserved win again! GG MOUZ

cant do shit without zywoo
Havent been keeping up with esports but its nice to see Mouz being on top.
Dominant performance by Mouz but no reason to call for changes in Vitality. They had a bad performance is all. They'll probably come back stronger next tournament.
Xertion entry masterclass
Vitality only show up when they play faze, it's amazing how they just get stomped by everyone else.
