This week on Overtime on Inferno, the boys kick things off with some spicy Aurora roster rumours before breaking down Stanislaw’s surprise move to Metizport.They debate HLTV vs VRS rankings, lose their minds over the Take of the Week, and dig into the Cologne Major invite list now that things are finalised. Oh, and PGL Bucharest is also happening regardless of how little we want to watch tier two teams.Join the discord:https://discord.gg/X3jU4djxUKCheck out Logan's newsletter:https://thestratbook.gg🎙️ Subscribe to the pod:https://readtldr.gg/podcast🗞️ Join +32K readers of our newsletter:https://readtldr.ggBecome a Counter-Strike demon:https://learncs.ggFollow your host and guests: https://twitter.com/AN1MOCS2https://twitter.com/novaHdesignEpisode edited by: https://twitter.com/maccwyd Thumbnail Jazz by: https://twitter.com/jameshserpa 📌 Interested in advertising with us?

This week on Overtime on Inferno, the roster shuffle talk gets spicy as we dive into why frozen NEEDS to go to NAVI, because let’s face it, someone has to. The boys also touch on how disappointing Falcons have been lately, and why it might finally be NiKo’s time to pick up the IGL mantle. Over in Asia, The MongolZ continue to confuse everyone by never taking timeouts (not even when cobrazera drops a stinker vs Aurora). Meanwhile, PARIVISION’s nota might have big games now and then, but he’s clearly the bottleneck. Just sign donk, seriously.

This week on Overtime on Inferno, things are a little quiet in the Counter-Strike world, but we’re not letting that stop us. Since we’ve banned ourselves from talking about FaZe (for everyone’s sanity), we’re spicing things up with a few freshly cooked segments from Sam and Jack: a team-building draft, an IEM Cologne Major quiz, and our new favourite, Jack’ll Fix It.

This week on Overtime on Inferno, our co-hosts debate over the future of Team Spirit's head coach Hally. Sam is more of a Hally-out man, whilst Jack makes one last attempt to defend Team Spirit's coaching. We've also moved on from clowning on FaZe. Nowadays we're talking about what could turn things around for karrigan and his boys after their head coach NEO has stepped down. Is the answer to all their problems Ash? Probably not. But we'd definitely still like to see him link up with karrigan in the near future.

On this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno, Sam and Jack are beefing with the CS community again. This time, it's over the ticket prices of the PGL Singapore Major which has caused some outcry amongst fans. Luckily our co-hosts are here to tell you why the tickets are more reasonable than fans might think. Though, there is one thing that our hosts and the community can actually agree on. Simply put, Liquid and NIP are absolutely f*cking terrible.

This week on Overtime on Inferno, Sam is reunited with his co-host as Jack comes back from IEM Krakow, which begs the question: whether you’re watching in person or at home, was it as good as Katowice? Well, not quite. But there’s still plenty of quality Counter-Strike to talk about post-event. As usual, almost every team under the sun gets called sh*t, including MOUZ, who are labelled a dead team after a poor showing in Poland.

Welcome to Flashbang Realities, a new series where we discuss what could've been if Counter-Strike history had gone just a little bit differently. On this week's episode our host Sam is joined by special guest quacke and former NIP-analyst Jack. Together the three of them analyse dev1ce's ultimately disappointing blockbuster move to NIP. Considering the personal drama that led to dev1ce benching himself, we can't help but feel sorry for him. But please, do spare some pity for Sam, as he had to spend an hour with not one but two NIP fans...
