Frozen seems very mature for a 21 year old. 21 year old veteran is a fitting description. Overall he appears to be just a chill and nice dude you'd love to be friends with. I'm sure he is an amazing teammate.

[@Sunstriderko]

Hard to believe he is 21 already. I remember going to a local BYOC tournament (I think it was his first offline tourney) and everyone was saying "look there is an actual kid who plays the tourney" and everybody was like what the fuck is this kid doing here. After first few games EVERYBODY was standing around this guy watching him play. There were the biggest names of Czech and Slovak scene, but every time Frozen had a match people stood around that table. Good memories and I am so happy ego didn't get to this guy and he continues the grind and proudly represents the country.

[@cameronheath1663]

want to see frozen when he takes his headset off

[@realitydimension]

go watch karrigan vlog u will see

This is a podcast, thanks hltv boys

[@Flashv28]

Thanks Mr hltv for fast upload and lotss of chapters! Good work

[@CapeSkill]

If I remember correctly, device was not an awper at the beginning, he was rifling and then transitioned into an awp role because his team needed at the time, so I guess he also knows a lot about what it takes to transition to completely new roles

Hot take possibly but k0nfig entry fragging on Astralis gave blameF domain to zone off the map. BlameF as igl was a surprise but at the same time he was able to execute some very coordinated ultility plays like old Astralis. That being said he had much more impact as a lurker but only with a entry fragger that can pull rotations confidently/effectively like k0nfig. BlameF has some of the best aggressive lurking in CS when given the chance. igl is not the move put him back on the role he shines at.

[@scorppu]

the insane aggressiveness of k0nfig perfectly balanced out the sometimes passive blameF on T sides. Without k0nfig, all blameF could do was get his exits. Without blameF, all k0nfig could get was a one and done without backup. They were the perfect duo and if astralis had device in place of farlig back in 2021 things could've turned out different.

[@KeefeL]

1:17:33 Execute coordinated utility? They walked out dry/ thru smoke on T side Nuke multiple times Not sure if we're watching the same team play Edit: at squeaky, forgot that detail

[@xjamiec]

Frozen seems like a good guy

Best episode in a while - keep it up!

Frozen legend, so wise for his age aswell, big hair big brain

Mongolz to legend stage and then to playoffs EZ

talking about metizport players signing "big money contracts" is kinda funny ngl. Especially since Nilo and Adamb(?) are still on part time contracts till the summer

1:24:36 can't believe Striker would say something so controversial

[@tehjamerz]

Frozen? More like Heater

[@curtisspud5590]

Liquid kinda got bracket fucked tbh. Yes they should have won but at the same time it was kinda wack. I'm not bothered by it since they aren't my team but just didn't seem right to me

[@bigstrawberry4552]

Frozen what a great player and character. He would rather stayed in Mouz than play in Vitality with Zywoo. Hat down

[@runebraager1968]

Why is everyone saying that dev1ce was an AWP'er his whole career? He used to be a rifler (a really good one) and then transitioned into being an AWP'er.

[@templarknight7]

probably because his highest peaks came with the awp

[@byacaro1761]

Next woxic pls

Frozen had a chance to play with Zywoo and win majors and decided to go for Faze. Interesting career path.

[@chase4013]

liquid should consider trying to grab jks imo

[@tommynguyen6788]

They would be european team then no?

[@chase4013]

@@tommynguyen6788 if they got rid of yeki no but if they dropped skullz they’d be international so yeah im guessing they’d compete in eu?? Not really sure

[@weagles_fan7467]

@@chase4013 If they dropped skullz for jks they would still have 2 NA (NAF/Twistzz) and 2 EU (yekindar/CadiaN) plus jks. So they would get to choose if they played in NA or EU.

Remember when people called for rains head and wanted him replaced with jks. Aahhahaa

[@Rayn-117]

It’s wild how many idiots there are saying that all the fault lies with Liquid in getting eliminated and none with the formatting. Yes Liquid changed their roster but they should have been seeded better than they were by valve and there was no chance for all the top 3 teams to pass through. Abysmal from everyone involved in the TOing

[@ReDMooNTVV]

complaining about it even if it's justified will just make everyone go "sore loser". Seems like the only way to speak up is when you win

[@blarg4053]

First comment by not a porn bot

[@lukeX2m]

striker has to stop yapping sometimes. i have to be honest, im here for frozen and i really didnt like when he started rambing about rmr formats and ranking while frozen was quiet in the corner.

[@VelcroEditing]

Counter-Strike is gone, the game is an absolute disgrace atm

[@jiminkook4445]

spunj is in desperate need of some media training, this shit is getting ridiculous

[@waltuh4994]

media training would ruin spunj, hes way better to listen to because hes unfiltered

[@LiquifiedLK]

No thanks, I don't want another puppet keeping to the script. Its refreshing to see someone just speak their mind.
