If you are worried about your family being slaughtered in their home by artillery strikes, it is IMPOSSIBLE to focus on winning a game. Every person b1t or s1mple has known and loved their whole life could be dead right now and you want people to pretend that won't change how much they can think about winning this event?

Russia going to war with Ukraine beat NAVI*

[@obj3ct143]

3:40 Spunj knew faze would win because it was rigged. You heard it here first.

[@mckinleyostvig7135]

Anyone who's seen Cadian play a single LAN event in his whole career should be betting against Heroic at any LAN playoff. Cadian is a great AWPER online who literally never carries that form to LAN. His calling and the rest of the team are good on LAN, but on LAN Cadian is not a tier 1 primary AWPER. He's had 68 events to improve on LAN and he just never shows up individually.

[@RobCooper-Bachatador]

What the headline could have said was "Russia's Impact Beat Best in the World" (because that still includes m0NESY and the more impactful conflict)

[@Pyxyty]

I took 11 months of time to think about this and I've decided it's still the most stupid thing I've ever heard

[@RobCooper-Bachatador]

​@@Pyxyty Are you denying that the Russian Conflict has had impact on NAVi? A fact that has been pointed out enumerable times since this comment. So even without your 11 months of hindsight, your analysis to claim it is 'stupid' is ironically the stupidest response you could make.

[@Pyxyty]

@@RobCooper-Bachatador that wasnt my point lmao. Also i think you're somehow taking the 11 months thing seriously?? Relax a bit mate, i was just trying to say that that's a stupid title for a youtube video that has nothing to do with that, which is absolutely true because it woildnt get any clicks except for the political heads like you that try to bring politics into the game like a braindead idiot. Ya feel me? :^) Anyways, it has been 11 months, whats your excuse for Navi being a shit team? Still the war? Lmao. Cant wait for the war to end (for many reasons, ofc, hoping for peace for Ukrainians, but also...) so that you fanboys dont have any more excuses

[@RobCooper-Bachatador]

​@@Pyxyty you obviously are not bright enough to read the word 'could' and have interpreted as 'should' and think I was really saying to change the title. Oh and you're way off base, I DGAF about NaVi. I was simply pointing out that in Katowice 2022, the conflict was the more significant event that affected them. And your weak argument about why NaVi is not performing NOW, has no contextual significance on a statement I made 11months ago. So no I don't feel you, because stupid analysis is stupid.

[@Pyxyty]

@@RobCooper-Bachatador lmaooo im not reading that because i know im right and you're barely worth my time replying to. If you wanna keep this discussion going, just keep rereading what i said because ive said enough to prove im right. :))

[@petejackson3215]

u said mad respect 4 navi to show up. But, can they not show up? it's in their contract tho.

[@trollface9903]

The Navi organisation would probably understand if they didn't show up. Navi themselves are greatly affected by it

[@ShannonJame]

i think if they decided as a team they dont want to play because of a war between their own countries, the team wouldnt say no

[@1atem]

Navi is Ukrainian org, based in UA. I think that the CEO of Navi understands them fully and doesn't care about it, just wants the players to recover and survive.
