    Except that Envyus got a terrible record against Fnatic so far.

    It depends on how you look at things. If you look at past majors, Envyus has a bad record. But I'm not sure that past majors are a suitable measuring stick. I think a far more reliable predictor of how a match will go is recent form. Sure, a team can sometimes rise to the occasion at a major and burst out of a period of bad form, but as a general rule I think form is the most important factor.

    I mean, this competition kinda shows that. Envyus beat fnatic recently in a non-major, and they replicated that success here. VP has been losing left, right and centre recently in non-majors, and they lost here.

    Reaction for NV vs G2
    Fuck yeah! Apex is a fucking monster. Also NBK with the autosniper saving us so bad.

    Just played a deathmatch with that. It's hilarious as it's basically an AWP in a pistol. Also, chickens have adorable little Christmas sweaters.

    Won't have a chance to try it for a few hours but I'm pretty excited, was watching StarLadder last night and they were going over the patch notes.

    I just had a game on Mirage where both teams force bought R8 and armor every round. That pistol is insane.

    The fact that you can currently shoot with the revolver while defusing by pressing right mouse click is absolutely hilarious. And by hilarious I mean hilariously broken.

    It's also pretty dumb to get a pistol for 850$ that outdamages pretty much all but the AWP...

    It seems to be OP yea. Some people still plays deagle at Global though, its way more versatile than the R8.

    Just rolling through competitive games spamming R8 right now and winning, on 5 game streak at Legendary Eagle games. Sometimes picking rifles for back-up weapon if I run out of bullets. I think pistol is not supposed to do this.

    It's not just an AWP though, at close range it's as good as an autoshotty if you spam right click. I go through games without buying a primary.

    R8 is the primary weapon ;)

    Only reason to use any other gun is if your cowboy gun runs out of bullets.

    I played some deathmatch with the revolver and i think it is too good, but i don't think it is ridiculously op. Of course it could be completely different in matchmaking, but i doubt it.

    First of all the left click is too slow and unless you go around corners being ready, you will lose to ak/m4 as any competent shooter will have shot you in the head before you will be able to fire. The right click on the other hand is very inaccurate. Impossible to shoot people consistently unless you are very close to each other.

    I personally don't like this new gun. It is the best pistol there is and can compete with the rifles with varying degrees of success which isn't a good thing.

    Just tried it in competitive. Absolutely hilarious. Revolver super capable of clutching.
