dupreeh opens up on Vitality & Astralis; is MR12 any good? | HLTV Confirmed S6E71

[@daansmits8345]

I love how emotionally mature dupreeh is. He's mature enough to consider the different sides of his benching. But he's also mature enough to openly share his frustration and disappointment.

[@arep7771]

u can see he almost cry every time he talk about that matter(his future n benching) but for some reason it sound super depressing when he talk in gloomy voice n thing he say. i just hope when he know hes done done(in csgo or cs2 which i think gonna be soon) he can fully move on cuz the way he express himself here sound like the guy that is ready to commit sudoku.

He has to be a top 5 player of all time simply because he has every single major attendance and 5 wins. Not to mention to highest earnings ever iirc. Puts him above many other players with higher ratings.

I honestly think that Dupreeh in the future could be a great analyst. He has all of the experiences a pro player needed and I could only imagine him being on the front desk with Spunj, Pimp and others, on big tournaments. He explains things so simplistically, though with thoughts and in depth understanding behind the game.

[@Jonsson95]

I enjoyed the discussion around mr12 but there is 1 point I havent heard. Why mr12 specifically? Why not mr13? One thing I dislike about mr12 is that half can end in a tie. In mr13 one team always wins the half just like in mr15.

They lengthened out the pro rounds and slightly shortened the matchmaking version (it was 2:00 rounds and 45 second bomb).

[@caesarsco]

On the topic of Ax1Le playing worse recently - he definitely seems to be being pushed towards going for more T-side entries. Seems much more aggressive in this version of C9 than the one of old. Might need more sample size to find out if this is true but on maps like Vertigo & Anubis he seemed to be very regularly challenging for openings, which I don't really associate with Ax1Le's normal playstyle. His T side rating in this new C9 is abysmal. In 2022, his T side rating was 1.11 vs Top 30 teams. Tied 4th highest in the world with KSCERATO, the only 2 riflers in the Top 5. In the last 3 months, his T side rating is 1.01 vs Top 30. Big drop off.

[@xlpha888]

Bit of a hot take but i think closing the "partner teams' system is a wrong call for the scene. People say that this decision will bring in more orgs but tbh looking from org's perspective, any org will be much less enthusiastic on spending knowing that their team might not even qualify. This will straight up discourage them from picking up teams. Also, benching and changing players will also take a hugh hit as any team which swaps player takes a hugh hit in ranking and thus missing out on invited slots. Idk, lets see.

[@Shanarai]

Even if Dupreeh wants to have more success and play on a good team, I just don’t see any team of that championship caliber looking for a roster change right now, let alone wanting him. It is unfortunate for him as he would have won more tournaments and maybe a major next year if he was still in Vitality.

[@thesilentassassin1167]

Return to Astralis makes most sense imo, they should remove Borup, or maybe eveb Ence, as strong as Ence has been lately, Dycha is their obvious weak link, would love to see Dupreeh Replace him

[@Shanarai]

@@thesilentassassin1167 Astralis could work for him. The problem is his age, he doesn’t have many years left and he is past his prime so I don’t know whether Astralis want to have a player that will be replaced not long after. It could be bad for team stability.

@@Shanaraiage don’t mean anything you got brainwashed and btw he won last Major while younger and more fresh players didn’t even qualify, Monesy Niko, s1mple b1t Electronic, Broky twistzz Ropz they all failed to win last major.

You can made MR15 shorter - just add "save option" for: -CTs after bomb plant, -Ts when is low time (30s?) or number advantage of CTs (2 or more?). Saving team has bigger propabality of succesfull save, so they are incourage do use this option. After save is call, there round is over with this standard few secound of delay (as after normal end of round. It would be a vouloutary option - you can always choose to not save (almost instantend of round) and go for a clutch. With this We would ge shorter matches, but same number of round.

Great seeing Dupreeh. @ the part about ads and adblocker ur sitting there doing the same thing the people ur talking shit on by thinking you have the right to tell them to use or not use something just a thought. Once hltv started throwing ads after ads every 5 secs even if u exit them I'd use a fucking adblocker as well kinda annoying when ur trying to look at something or even a few things and you have so many things on ur mind and then these stupid ads that ruin the experience just start blocking everything we saw it start when prof through the hltv twitch stream sub only like u guys don't get paid enough??. Most the ads are just useless

Yea i mean, let everyone use it or not. He uses adblocker too, just not on HLTV. so he cares about his own but other companies (there is humans like spunj working too!) he doesnt care. thats understandable, but u cant get mad on others who also use adblock in their own "bubble". but well, its just typical Spunj the preacher, dont put too much into it, he just gets emotional, which is completely cool. i remember hltv from the beginning, dont remember that many ads. they have increased to a point that ppl are fed up, which is why adblockers exist. not my problem. find a better way of making money then. sorry spunj, dont wanna make u mad. :l

[@singh9418]

“Community opinion on zywoo” It’s just a fking fact, he drops off against better teams in higher pressure matches. THAT IS WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. Normally you can’t get 1.5 rating every match and every team. He’s still the best player in the world. It’s just when fans start saying this is the best individual level ever and stuff, then sane people pull out the stats and criticise. Ignoring the fact that zywoo performance tapers off in playoffs is that same as ignoring s1mple has dropped off his game entirely. S1 is still probably top 5 player but just not the absolute best.

[@Obantrash]

brother, Maniac made entire spreadsheets debunking this nonsense lmao

[@tracque_5677]

I think the reason people will try to fight against the “drop off” allegations is because it’s a bit disingenuous to say ZyWoo drops off against better opponents. His stats drop off, but not necessarily his level of play. In the same way that plopping a gold nova into a faceit 10 lobby would have their stats drop off, not necessarily their level of play. Playing against better opponents means your stats suffer and you don’t get away with as much even if you play just as well.

[@dinjoe828]

Already debunked by Maniac using raw data and people still thinking they got the facts lmao, looks like your mind is already made up, not even hard statistics can change it.

[@singh9418]

@@tracque_5677 Yes, it’s a given you will have better stats against lower competition. But if actually watched the matches carefully, you will see that he’s not there in some maps of the big matches. And maniac pulling out spreadsheets won’t make a difference when we actually watch the matches with our OWN EYES and see that he’s not playing the same as before or having the same kind of impact. I’m not devaluing him, his performance is insane but it’s just not as game breaking as we see from his counterparts in the biggest matches. I mean when niko carries the team in his entry roles for for consecutive events, even though his stats are worse, you know he’s the reason they are beating the best teams. Zywoo is the best player this year but I don’t like people Maniac covering the obvious. You can see he’s winning the MVPs but he’s not necessarily the strongest factor by a big margin on his team. And I also don’t like how zywoo fans will first compare zywoo and simple, then proceed to completely state s1 career as a toxic baiter AWP abuser, only to get corrected by stats then proceed to say they never said “zywoo was the greatest, only he could be because he played less years, more top 2” blah blah blah.

[@noxzy69]

​@tracque_5677 great point, but his role is star player. Team positioning and strategy is around him, meant to allow him to pop off. This means even though he might mantain the same level of play against better teams, a player of his stature and ability should climb even further in the biggest moments against the biggest teams.
