This is a new Counter-Strike series called CHALLENGED. DarfMike and I realised we work the same events but never get to work together, so we made a thing so we could. CHALLENGED is a series focused around the ESL Challenger Events for 2024. We’ll do a pre and post event video showcasing what to expect from the teams competing and then what we got wrong about those expectations. The first episode is ESL Challenger Jönköping Part 1. In it we share some war… we mean work, stories and give our opinions on the teams you’re going to see compete at Dreamhack Summer.0:00 Introduction to our new show CHALLENGED02:23 Mike’s fun GeT_RiGhT story from IEM Dallas03:50 Sam’s Jonkoping Travel nightmare06:25 ESL Challenger Jonkoping, last chance for Team Falcons?10:26 Complexity’s chances12:16 The question marks around hallzerk14:40 Party Astronauts and the American dream16:45 ESL Challenger format 19:35 ENCE’s new line up and what to expect from sdy & podi22:17 The MongolZ - back to back LAN winners25:01 Last Challenger’s winners MiBR26:44 Sam doesn’t have faith in Aurora29:20 Sweden’s home town rep is Alliance31:10 Final Predictions25:51 Some more on potential Complexity roster changesFollow DarfMike on X:https://x.com/DarfMikeFind me on the socials:Blog - http://www.techgirlblog.comInstagram - http://www.instagram.com/techgirlzaTwitter - http://www.twitter.com/techgirlzaFacebook - http://www.facebook.com/techgirlzaTwitch - http://www.twitch.tv/techgirlzaDiscord - https://discord.gg/SKvCd82nv4TikTok - http://www.tiktok.com/@TechGirlZA My gear: - Canon EOS M50 Mark ii- My PC: Z590-GUNDAM (Wi-Fi) Motherboard, ROG Strix RTX3080 Graphics Card, PSU ROG Strix 850G GUNDAM edition, Intel Core i7-10700 Processor & ROG Strix Helios GUNDAM edition case. - ROG Strix XG27AQV Gaming Monitor- TUF Gaming VG27VH1B
