    Have there been any rumours as to who’s replacing Nitr0? I recalling reading that it might be Siuhy, but then I think another report came out indicating that he might go to Mouz.

    I haven’t seen any delusional takes on this magazine yet so I’ll start us off: Liquid’s got it in the bag no matter who they get (:

      According to dust2.us they’re not looking for an igl but instead having YEKINDAR as igl which imo is such a waste but I guess we’ll see how it goes. Nothing on who they’re picking but they seem to be looking for a rifler.

    will be interesting to see if BIG lets the academy team play. They earned it, they should not be subbed by 2-3 from main

      I dunno, I feel like they’d wanna give event organizers and players more time to settle in than this. If CS2 launched tomorrow they’d only have a month to prepare, and I don’t think we’re getting CS2 tomorrow.

          I don’t think they’ll put all of them in the Limited Test though, especially the new maps like Overpass or Italy. They may end up pushing some of the maps which stay mostly the same like Inferno (it’s not getting a remake in spite of what some people think) or Office, but I think the rest will only be widely tested at launch. By testing multiple maps, but not all, they can still get a lot of data regarding where to look for bugs in the existing maps (like with the bench crash they fixed recently) so it will still be reasonably polished.

          I think the more likely reason why it will take time is they’re still working on a lot of features, I mean who knows how far along things like matchmaking and other game modes are.
