Ex-Valorant pro trolls Counter-Strike 2 broadcast with hilarious analysis
ValveEx-Valorant pro, Steel, trolled an IEM Counter-Strike 2 broadcast with a hilarious analysis of a site exec, mixing up both games.
2024’s IEM Katowice has kicked off its Play-In stage, and it has seen some big surprises already. From Team Spirit’s nasty 13-0 of Apeks, to the surprise appearance of NA CS and Valorant IGL legend Joshua “steel” Nissan on the desk as an analyst.
After his disastrous 2023 in Valorant Challengers, he branched out to do analysis for CS broadcasts, but it seems the Valorant side of him hasn’t really left yet.
During an analysis of a site exec during the M80 vs Rooster match, steel seemed to mixing up both games, much to the chagrin of his fellow desk analyst.
“For those of you that are new to Counter-Strike, what we’re about to see here is called a really heavy defense setup,” steel started off his analysis before all hell broke loose.
“When you see the exec happening, and you see all these mollies landing, and you see this big exec happening, what you want to do… is put up an Omen smoke in the middle of site, get the Viper wall going up,” steel then added, looping his Valorant experience into the CS2 broadcast.
“And what we’re gonna see here is the entry, this is actually Jett right here up drafting over and landing,” steel said as he tried to hold back his laughter.
Despite the trolling, steel did point out that the reason M80 was able to win the round was because of their smoke placements on the site allowing them to take favorable fights, albeit told with some Valorant allegory.
“Don’t worry folks, we’re still working on deprogramming him. We’ll get him back,” desk analyst DarfMike jokingly said of steel.
As of now, IEM Katowice 2024 will be going into its third day of Play-ins to determine the last four teams who will be making it to the Group Stage on February 2.
