This match broke my heart. Nerve and Gengsta played so well, was expecting so much from yay. Hope they come back stronger.

[@leimarocampo6997]

I think yay was IGLing too, it's so hard to play duelist and at the same time lead a team, yay was able to perform so well last year because of fns, since he had a really good igl his priorities would be duels, but rn he is doing the two jobs, gotta be exhausting

[@happylittletrees8130]

[@leimarocampo6997]

@@nguyt9039 pretty sure despead of the inicial roles, once you're in the match the team will lead the person with most experience, yay in c9 wanted to igl and he has said a lot of times he likes to igl and put in practice all learnt with fns. I'm pretty sure he was doing that job, plus his first official match in a long time. I'm not excusing yays bad performance in these matches, they're facts and maybe he didn't kill that much but we can see he was doing a lot of calls. Clear only played aggressive characters, so it ended with him being killed a lot in the first round with smoker, or was scared because didn't have a way out. I think with time we could see a lot of good plays from this team.

[@Nehasupnfan]

If I'm not mistaken, Yay joined this roster 2 weeks ago, it will take longer than that to build synergy and supplementing his duelist plays, getting the timing right etc. They will get there. He needs time, don't fret

[@simdmklover6271]

He already found his form in the second map. Just a matter of time before the team gets comfortable around yay and vice versa.

I think the issue is basically people don’t get comfortable on their role yet. Oxygen has been playing together as a team for much longer. DSG new roster has played for 1-2 weeks only (and you can see it in their play, doesn’t look like a team in a lot of scenarios yet). I’d give them some time to figure out their new roles. Either it be Yay on Jett, Steel as initiator, and Clear on smoke.

[@mikuhatsu3317]

THIS ^^

[@howaboutdat]

On the real tho, Yay was set-up to fail with the lack of coordination between him & the initiator. At this point you gotta start asking questions of the coach (partly the IGL) because they’ve been having problems setting up their duelist & initiator well since open qualifiers.

[@ikeachair517]

yeah fr. i think thats part of the reason to yays success on optic because of finnese's calls and the support from victor and crashies

[@User-xw6kd]

This is a wake up call for the braindead folks who used to say "yay and friends."

[@brianjc720]

Really? 22:56 What is yay checking there on the dash? He literally sees steels dog checking right not to mention the smoke covering all of sight. He should be checking left, the only angle not covered. This is the basics. I understand you’re on a new team but come on, you’re supposed to be a veteran at this.

[@ouo2u216]

​@@brianjc720 thats not his job, they spammed left side so he asummed that it's clear, his job is to make play on hall to clear it then play aggro which he did but they got unlucky cuz the guy was 13hp

[@brianjc720]

@@ouo2u216 As a jett his job is literally to clear while dashing. Spamming does not clear an angle, it’s a rookie mistake to assume that a spammed angle is clear on such a large wall. Every high level jett flicks their mouse to both sides in these scenarios precisely to clear these angles on the minimap. For any top tier entry your job is 100% to clear angles and then push to create pressure if that’s the call. You say that that’s not his job as if he couldn’t have easily cleared it. A better jett that we see plenty of in tier 1 would have cleared that angle by quickly flicking it. Unfortunately it seems Yay is not up to par in that regard.

[@destany940]

Thats not fair how can anyone ever live up to this hype 😢

[@User-xw6kd]

I love yay but something is really off. Why is yay running it down alone? Is that steel's calling?

[@nikozecont1918]

@@User-xw6kd I think Yay was trying to create space for his team, as a duelist is supposed to do by engaging with the enemy team. However, it is important to take into account that Yay's reaction time and consistency were not on point, which put the DSG team in trouble. Additionally, most of Yay's kills were on the defensive side, which is good but not what is expected from a duelist who should be winning engagements primarily on the offensive side.

Hard Copium but DSG is a new team with an immediate roster change. Only way now is UP. 🙏

[@proverbialking3452]

It's not copium. Most people expect 1 team to do well 100% of the time. But if you like a team just because they win 100% of the time you don't really like the team as much as the feel of winning.

[@nils1953]

1 week practice is objectively not enough. You can clearly see that especially on Haven, they got read like a book. Even in pearl they always had the read. Top notch igl'ing on their part, but also shows that because dsg had so little time to practice, there were very few executions they could have made, so the read was easier. I'm sure they'll be back.

[@pghazeeq610]

huge copium

[@JiN0034]

What's wrong with YAY switching weapons/abilities on retake/clutch situations? On that note: Something is wrong with Steel being an initiator, not effective as an IGL

[@jackknowles5295]

The amount the roles in this game matter is highly oversold by the community. The specific agent matters. Skye is definitely okay for IGLs because you have a lot of the utility you'd typically call for anyway, and you're also typically supplementing a push not leading it. Breach is mostly the same to be honest. He definitely gets a little too close to trying to open up sites himself and maybe that busies it up a little too much, but it's not like trying to IGL on Jett... or Raze... or even something like KJ.

[@rishabhsharma9581]

steel did his stuff but yay did not properly fit. They need time.

[@JiN0034]

@@jackknowles5295 no you Pepega Always have an IGL on smokes or Sentinel. Better view and sense on the map. They don't have to start the execution. They'll have better view and understanding on where and what every single play has control. All they need to do is either control a portion on the map and just create a call or Make sure the execution can come into fruition by controlling either the flank or a blindspot for duelist or initiator

[@jackknowles5295]

@@JiN0034 and yet no one ever struggled to call in csgo as anything but an entry (and even then ANGE1 still does that) it's almost like you're making out IGLing in tac shooters to be harder than it actually is... the FNS effect everything you've arbitrarily decided was an IGL job is just... any players job provided that's the call
