The whole heroic trio signing to Falcons had to know that they are being signed only because they were the cheapest TOP10 VRS core available on the market. Falcons weren’t signing them because they were interested in the players, Falcons were interested in the invites & the major invite.
And degster especially had to know he had 6-8 months max. on the roster as the rumour of m0nesy following niko into falcons was out before the winter break.

Unless degster is literally brain dead they knew this already, he was even getting replaced in Heroic, the sweet salary bump they got from going to Falcons makes up for this
Degster had a good chance to show his skill yet he’s been a 1.01 awful awper

it should be obvious for degster but I still find it insane to tell your new teammate that you would rather play with your ex-teammate over him at day 1. has to be very demoralizing

Grown men and high paid professionals. Ofc it sucks, but they are paid to perform! It’s not high school.

Nice to meet you Abdul, I’m looking forward to playing beside you, but I would rather play with m0NESY.

Let’s not put it like Degster is some kind of victim here.
He was going to get benched on heroic and then falcons bought the core out so he got 4months of playing in decent roster and chance to prove himself in tier 1 to either stay in falcons or move to other team like faze but he didn’t perform at all.It’s not like they don’t want to play with degster but M0nesy was the best awper of last year so if you can get him you should.They’re all professionals here getting paid a lot.

As someone who liked degster from his OG days, I feel for the guy, but at the same time, he likely got a huge freakin’ bag from Falcons so I’m sure he’s alright. Besides, he probably knew this Falcons stint was always gonna be temporary, even if it came way earlier than most expected (considering I think the general expectation of most were that G2 would still be with m0nesy in Austin).
He probably knew that his time with Falcons is more or less just an opportunity for him to present to the rest of the orgs out there what he can provide to their team as an AWPer until the inevitable day he gets replaced.

niko and falcons are the only reason degster is still playing in a top 10 team, he was going to get kicked from this core but had to be bought out for vrs points

Not gonna feel bad for anyone that makes my salary in a month. No chance

Misleading title and soft take.
What NiKo said was in an interview and it was the most gentle way to say it. He didn’t say anything negative, or when, just a general acknowledgement.
Also, I’m sure most teams would drop their AWPer if they could get m0nesy.
Just imagine:
– interviewer: “Would you like to play with m0nesy?”
– random T2 pro: “I would be stupid no to.”
– that team’s AWPer: “B-but… I thought I was the best AWPer to you. 🥺👉👈 You really hurt my feewings. Baka. 😫”

This is a non-issue.
