Does dev1ce need to be removed from 100 Thieves?! Counter-Strike drama heats up in this episode as we break down whether dev1ce is officially washed, how FaZe vs. Aurora is being mispriced, why CS2’s MR12 rules change everything, and why FUT Esports might instantly become elite with s1mple.

jL should not be an analyst for any more matches at IEM Krakow! This episode delivers some of the hottest and most chaotic takes in Counter-Strike, starting with a bold claim that jL shouldn’t be an analyst at IM Krakow until he proves himself at smaller events. The hosts dive into MOUZ’s struggles, arguing the team is “too soft,” lacks energy, and may be held back by an overly polite internal culture that avoids conflict or accountability. We finish with a look at a spicy prediction on whether s1mple will retire soon.
