Stage 2 is over and the dust has settled, thankfully the quality of the games were better in this stage. Well, at least by a bit, since Astralis were there to stink it out this time. Speaking of Asstralis, this week Sam and Jack talk about if there's anyway around their roster blowing up, as well as how fix the format of the Major once and for all.

On this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno our hosts decide to circumvent the slow news week by playing a brand new game invented by the geniuses at tldr, "Go DaZeD or no DaZeD?".


Aside from guessing what schizo tweets are real or not, the boys also get to analysing the BLAST Rivals Hong Kong Grand Final. The conclusion? TeSeS might need to visit a job centre soon...

On this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno, our hosts engage in a great debate surrounding Team Spirit's leadership again (but longer this time). Danish AWPing IGL cadiaN also makes a return with OG, the boys discuss if his career is still dead in the water, and if there's anyone OG can sign as a 5th that doesn't involve rescuing Fl4mus from the shadow realm. Otherwise known as Virtus.Pro.Join the discord:https://discord.gg/X3jU...

On this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno, our hosts discuss Sam and Elliott's Twitter backlash from last week's worst AWPer conversation. The conclusion? L00m1 still can't AWP no matter how much AdamB says he can.

PGL Bucharest and IEM Chengdu are also covered alongside 100 Thieves' return to Counter-Strike.

On this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno, Jack, Elliott and Sam discuss electroNic's move to BC.Game. Will his addition make them the angriest team ever? Elliott certainly thinks so.

Our hosts got tired of VRS this week, so instead they decided mentioning DeadFox in the current year was a good idea.

Jack, Elliott, and Sam are back with another episode of Overtime on Inferno! This week, the boys kick things off with the (surprisingly serious) Counter-Strike guessing game, β€œWho Am I?” β€” but it’s not all fun and games. Things heat up when a certain French journalist shares a spicy take on rain’s benching at FaZe.

πŸŽ™οΈ Plus, we cover:

  • EliGE’s move to Liquid

  • The FaZe and rain drama

  • Our takes of the week

  • ESL Pro League Stage 1 recap

This week's Overtime on Inferno episode is a threeway, but not the fun kind (unless you have a thing for witty podcasts). The boys discuss whether or not donk should leave Team Spirit before promptly moving onto pocket watching the 18 year-old Russian.

A recap of Fissure Playground 2 also features.

This week on Overtime on Inferno, our hosts Sam and Jack decide to take a break from seething about VRS so they can dedicate 95% of their brain power to figuring out who Twistzz is replacing on FaZe. Then, the remaining 5% goes towards "the Chinese super team thought experiment".

Take of the week also returns after a whopping one week break.

In this week's episode – Sam and Jack try to figure out what ChatGPT told Wildcard to do with their roster. G2 just won BLAST London, so the boys do a victory lap and reminisce about how correct their roster mania judgements were.

We did forget the take of the week, but tearing the VRS system apart remains a constant.

In this week's episode β€” Sam and Jack discuss the latest and greatest roster moves, as well as a few rubbish ones. EWC is over, which saw everyone's sweethearts TheMongolz take the W, and Sam educates us all on why sports-washing is actually good! (yikes)

Our take(s) of the week cause quite the stir, and HLTV's new Rating 3.0 system is teared a new one.

In this week's episode of Overtime on Inferno, Sam and Jack question whether HLTV are actually good for the CS scene and if they've been given too much power in the VRS era.They also discuss the fact that Complexity are rightfully leaving CS, as well as the fact that Spirit are aware that they still have a lot to do in order to truly become better than Vitality.Join the discord:Β Β /Β discordΒ Β Check out Logan's newsletter:...
