The fact that he mentions iM at the end, it’s such a class act by Aleksi. A true leader! 🤝

IM was playing very well in ESL pro league group stage. Maybe he is finding his form.

This interviewer is probably the best interviewer that's ever gonna exist in CS. The amount of knowledge he had about each important game of Aleksib's career, all his ex teams going way back in time, every past teammate and their personalities and game styles, even some key rounds and frags from years ago, and to be able to piece it together in a seamless 3 hour interview, is worth commending. Bravo.

I like the fact that Aleksi thanked iM at the end. It perfectly sums up how great the guy is. Ngl, I wasn't a huge fan of iM these past months, but now I think that he's vital for this NaVi team. If he manages to stabilise his game and keep ~1.10 rating at least this team would be unstoppable.
@Alertum6 ай бұрын
you say that as if 1.19 rating is somehow easy to upkeep. there are like 10 people in the world with a lifetime 1.10 rating.
@xlgapelsin61732 ай бұрын
Like 1.10 is easy to keep up lol. Niko has a lifetime of 1.18 and that's NIKO. 1.10? consistenly as a rfiler is pretty close to impossible to keep up
