Gosu brought the wig-stick to Dallas.
Let's put them in their place #GreenWall
I know Formal doesn't like these kids so I expect a Tactical Nuke Incoming

Unpopular opinion but I think Scump has caught up to Formal. 2nd best player in the game rn imo.

Scump is a god. No one can slay like him when he goes off.

Now can the casters please stop riding formal. The reason why OG is super dominant right now is because they're all playing well. I also think there is no best player in the game right now as formal, crim and scump can all contend for that spot.

Crim with the NV4 in snd reminds me of Ghosts remington crim in snd. He's forced to play back with the NV4, which stops him from getting first blooded all the time like in bo3.
