Great video man! People like you continue to make esports (and Apex) more interesting for everyone. Thanks!
Next algs is yours my man🫡
sweet, you're easily my fav pro Apex player man, I've been watching your shit for like barely 2 weeks but man, you're amazing, bro
you're literally the funniest (bar none) Apex pro, and your face cams are some of the best content on RUclips man 😂😂😂
Wow one of the best compliments I've ever received. Thank you so much Sweet, keep up what you're doing and continuing to inspire everyone in the Apex community!
CHRISSY SEXTON 😍😍
pls win sth
Even with already knowing the story, was absolutely glued for 25 minutes. Good shit man, can't wait for next
Already on it!
saaame
Like, even after knowing the story and seeing the title, I was still rooting for NRG to win at the last minute 😂
Exactly
The thing I like about NRG is that they actually care about their players. When they were burned out and knew they couldnt perform they were okay with letting then go, especially when it pushed them away. They brought in new talent until they found what works and the problem wasnt them but just bad luck. I am glad they take care of their people. I dont hear the same for the others in this manner.
when this game came out, i found myself quickly in Dizzy stream. My favorite moment in Apex with all the playing I have done and people I have watched and followed. Lou, Sweet, Hal, Mande, Aceu, so many.. without a doubt, the happiest memories were watching Dizzy play and later Dizzy and Aceu play. They seriously cannot be forgotten. The skill they possessed so early in the game, the movements they evolved, strategies they explored. People forget Dizzy had 10k kills the first month of release, the dude had an heirloom and zip jumping before people knew the character names. Dizzy, the first ever signed Apex player, in twitch rivals, a week after release walked in with over 4k kills and the strategy he, ninja, and king richard employed would only work in that era of the game. They go into pubs and the goal is winning but kills were high points, so Dizzy would solo land the otherside of the map and solo destroy half the lobby to meet up with Ninja and Richard at the end and just destroy the last team. Time and time, Ninja goes down and/or Richard and Dizzy just cleans everyone with the broken ass wingman and the balloon exploit. Aceu took the skills Dizzy discovered and mastered them to a whole another level. Eventually pro scene comes, Dizzy moved on from BRs and back to his past of CS and then Valorant. Time moved on and most players today never heard of him.. who is Dizzy? The godfather of the Apex games.. the original goat.
Perfectly said. Bump.
Dizzy was definitely up there but he didn't find the movement tech so much, there were others that found out stuff and he implemented them well, he was the most well known person to put it all together but it was during a time when Apex was very easy and people quickly caught up and overtook his skillset. Aceu certainly did, unfortunately Ace and Dizzy never made a good pro team and always look out of their depth both in the macro and micro. Them 2 and Sweet could've been a good team but they never had that synergy that Sweet brings.
Dizzy still plays Apex after reimergimg as a streamer a year or two ago, though he only jumps on Apex very sporadically but has appeared in a ProAm in the past year. Unfortunately he mainly plays Roblox now... Why? I do not know.
All cheaters
First player lvl 100 or max, and the reason why movement player play wraith❤😊
Nafen needs more recognition. Man's ridiculous with the stuff he pulls
After dizzy and aceu blew up.. that level of talent got more and more common and unappreciated unfortunately..
Its cause he doesnt stream a lot. Dont understand why some of these beloved pros in the community never streamed. Once in a lifetime opportunity to make stupid amounts of money and they just didnt take it. Sad really.(Sentinels is the biggest team that did this)
that 20 kill storm point game they had was insane to watch live
23:50 will never get old. Chills every time.
These videos are always so entertaining and high quality! You deserve more attention!
Thanks for the consistent support ❤️
Fun Fact: The option that sweet was considering other than gild, the "very talented mnk gibby" was actually Mande, Sweet already said it, i think Mande would actually work very well with Sweet and Nafen, they are good friends and Mande is crazy if he is competing, but with today meta, a controller player is a must in almost any team. Btw if NRG strugles to get important wins in the future and maybe Nafen wants to change team, i think Mande could be a option to try.
Interesting, I remember seeing they considered Mande!
Sweet said that he and Nafen would play the rest of their careers together so idk if that would happen but it sure would be freaking cool!!
Imagine mande and nafen in the same squad 😳😯😯😯
@@hshiram I think Gild is at the very least better than Nafen
@@TJzWayyy Controller player. Not really. If you been following NRG through ALGS Nate get way more things done (clutches, kills, etc) than Gild.
Brilliant video. NRG baby! Will always follow and support! Love from London, England.
Awesome! Thank you!
You and JHawk are the best.
Just got to talk to JHawk for the first time this weekend he's the 🐐
❤
@@AyeJHawk 🐐
@@AyeJHawk 🐐
Yes
You and jhawk are goated for these vids, would love to see a Complexity one next :) keep up the great work!
Elite vid. I follow the apex pro scene pretty loosely so this is some great content to keep up to date with what’s happening and the storylines. Great work
Love to hear it, that's why i do this!
23:14 sweet's facial expressions, lip licking, mouth puckering when he's focused is some of the funniest face cam sshit ive ever seen lmao
Lmaooo why’d you have to point it out, now I can’t help but stare at his face cam
@@BANANA42k bro, just laser focus on sweet on every clip you see of him, he's HILARIOUS man
It’s so cool, following this game from the beginning, seeing some of these moments and remembering watching them live haha.
man, the golden age of Apex, back when we had Dizzy and Shroud playing regularly
“my house is in fire omg “ XDDD
I forgot to clarify that thankfully his house was not on fire XD
Only 7.7k?!?! howww! This type of video is QUALITY. Good stuff man.👍
The word WIN being on Aceu's face in the thumbnail is funny and fitting if you think about it lol
yea that was unintentional LOL
Aftet this , I started searching more about Dizzy. He is OG GOAT, fisrt best player Apex in scene. I am surprised I didn't heard about him before. He deserves more recognition
Dizzys story is sad. I hope that dude is doing great these days.
As primarily a NRG and TL/XSET fan it’s a pain seeing my favorite boys constantly placing 2nd in ALGS. Both squads are goated, but this is Hal’s world and everyone else is just living in it. Great video!
Can someone enlighten me on what does an analyst do 18 hours a day? Does he just watch other people play video games for 18 hours straight?
I didn't know much about NRG before sweet, fantastic video! A video on optic or XSET(team liquid) next?
As someone who just started playing apex a few months ago all these videos get me hype!!!
its cool seeing old comp apex and seeing names that are competing in different esports
this hits different watching after NRG Apex disbanded 😢
RIP NRG. I hope Sweet finally gets his ALGS title with LG.
Just sat and watched like 3 vids in a row, big up yourself bro vids are 10/10
haha appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed
I’m tired of hearing the casters say “best IGL” when he’s yet to win a single major title.
BUT, this was a great video. Commentary was on point. Cheers mate!
Yep facts 😂
Love your vids bro keep up the good work
I really appreciate it! Definitely trying to be more consistent.
Jumba I really like you and I like watching your videos I love the work you put into them, you earned a sub
another great video man !👏 editing was on point 👀
Appreciate it always Abed! I was really trying to level up the editing with this one again
i watched dizzy at first but quickly gravitated to aceu. i would’ve found out if i knew, but wow. i still watch him to this day lol.
great video i didnt know i needed
i love how the old wing make good players looks like gods XD
and the truth about Aceu and Dizzy is the same that we have for players who stomp pubs nowadays, competitive is another type of game, you are facing players that maybe don't have the same mechanical quality, but this is compensated by intelligence and decision making in-game, I learned that when I supported NRG and saw it being taken away for nothing, I thought that Dizzy and Aceu were unbeatable, and when the truth hit the door I was happy, because I realized that even though I wasn't as good mechanically as both, the game still benefited the team that made the best decisions and not just those with good aim or movement.
TSM GOATED
I want them to win so bad last LAN after that match point T_T
Clean sponsorhip integration, almost got me wanting to eat the glorified tv dinners ;)
(get that bread and great vid man)
great video😘
I REMEMBERED U THIS TIME SVEN ❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic video my man!
Thanks a lot! 🫡
I forgot about the Dizzy purple handcam. Legend.
Need a vid about ImMadness dominance 2020-2021. 5x ALGS champ. Double digit wins. One of the best apex runs ever max
Nice Video :)
Whatttt! Glad you enjoyed it
Here before this video blows up. Good shit man keep it up
Thank you thank you ❤
no one would know nicewig if it wasn't for dizzy's raid. pretty cool how that went down
Wow this video had me rewinding to rewatch every minute. What a great video & way to find the clips. Subbed ;)
Thanks a ton! Clips took a long time to find so I appreciate when it gets recognized!
Man this video only gets better with time
The timing on this is hilarious.
I'm convinced if I drop a video on a team they don't do well in whatever they compete in next lol
The first NRG team should have been called NJL (no jaw line)
It’s not about performing, it’s about winning. If you can’t win LANs unfortunately you won’t have much of a legacy to leave behind.
That’s why DARKZERO are gods. And their legacy is unmatched.
Yoooo-oooohhh shawty was spitting knowledge at 5:07
I love NRG because aceu was on it but when he left I started loving tsm. I know I know but man who can resist routing for verhulst ?
20:53 I’m so glad I was there for this moment it gave me so much chills
wow i'm so glad the removed self res. i hated the change so bad but looking back in glad they just went for it
Especially in comp it really punished players who did well in favour of RNG
@@JumbaGW i remeber my team being downed after an extremely intense wrestle of a team fight right out of a closing zone 4 but I had a gold bag and a gold knock. I rezed myself while they had to fight another team even after from being weakened from fighting us and they still wiped that team. But I 3rd partied and wone. I remember not feeling good about the win because the team that wiped us earned the victory while I was given a 2nd chance because of an item in the game
just found this channel and its GOODDDD
Holy moly those S1 weapons were broken as can be LMAO
Great content!! Keep going
The problem is they have to fight against the CEO 😂😂😂
I’d love to see NRG get back at the TOP SPOT!!!! We need to see a Changing Of The Guard In Apex cause the same ol same ol isn’t cutting anymore!!!!!
awesome vid, man!
Csgo is an academy for the world's best aimers.
2:34 is that a specific wingman skin i love the iron sights on that
3:30 nicewigg being hosted by dizzy and it changed his life since then
JHawk and yourself are the true apex legends.
The guns were so broken back then haha. the spitfire OOOOWEEEEE
a lot of peeople have no idea how hard to form a championship team in any sport or game. even if you have the nastiest talent in your roster that doesnt mean shit if you guys cant get your shit together. Hal(mkb) isnt even considered to be one of the best fraggers but he would point you where you can have an advantage to win the game. aceu and dizzy duo couldve been better if they have a somewhat like hal. i think they wouldve more love for the game if shit didnt go south so early. but before the tournaments, i remember aceu kept mentioning that BR competitive is kinda ridiculous and silly so i guess he wasnt really into it.
Yea the early days of Apex was so tough I'm surprised sometimes the scene was able to survive and grow to where it is today. I could never blame Aceu or Dizzy for wanting to just stream instead of compete.
Ehh Hal definitely does frag bro wut? Even with switching to controller now, he's constantly dropping high damage in Realm since that's what they're all playing now
@@divineplaya710 can you even read?
@frieddayfriday lol obviously, and I was making a debate to your point about hal not fragging out lmao. I mean, yeah he's not pub stomping like aceu and dizzy are/were. But dude drops like a close 2k damage against other pros in the Realm league. While other peeps may get like 600 to 800 dmg and secure kills.
@frieddayfriday there was a reason why people called Hal The CEO of Wingman/apex. Lol, you just don't get that title cuz you can igl
Narrator said Respawn made Cod4 and Mw2? Nah bro that was Infinity ward.
The old infinity ward team left after Mw2 and created their own company which became Respawn.
I'm sorry but the dizzy guy took me by suprise when I first saw him
"my house is on fire" I was there😂
Love dizzy, was always my favorite apex streamer
20:18 Nafen is such a cutie 😂
It’s called being a choke artist😂
beautiful video
Can’t wait to witness them champion this summer
18:42
Ayyoooo 😂
LOL 😂
My favorite part is “my house is on fire”
4:30 I REMEMBER THIS VIDEO !! I wanted to be like them so bad
Member of the Rocket League community here, I can assure you guys that struggling to win when it counts does not only plague NRG in apex but Rocket league as well.
I'm a fan of comp RL myself I understand the pain 😂
@@JumbaGW So tuff🥲
Nrg soon will be on top? Idk about that xset and optic are better than them.
This split they are but overall, no.
Still lover NRG❤ From dizzy-aceu-mohr-frexs-nafen-rocker-sweet-gild🔥
NRG MOHR X DIZZY X ACEU WERE THE OG TRIPLE THREAT
Man I miss that spitfire
entire history of apex when?
its a video i want to do but would take so much time, maybe I can get it done and posted right before the year 3 championship
Same with NRG's Rocket League team!! Make a video on them?
I'm actually a fan of rocket league as well so I know they experience the same aha. For now I am focusing just on Apex but eventually in the future I may look to expand to other esports.
Very good video
The one sweets lacking was his ALGS trophy. Then we can talk the goat debate
Nah why is acue in the thumbnail and not nafen 😂
SIIIIICK VIDEO!
This makes me think Gild is Dizzys cousin or something, look very similar
Gildersons, Faide and Dizzy could be triplets, blond frog eyed mfs.
fanatic griefed them so hard bro they even said they knew it was them and that they were the only team on MP
How on earth did 25 minutes go by so quickly?
Haha I love to hear that 😁
Hey Mr. NRG-fan-boy. We will see you at LAN.
great video!
TSM ON TOP BABY
I forgot about sven, he's absolutely stealing a wage.
damn i got fking Goosebumps from that
Sven is Powerful!
Awesome video. Thanks much. Ez Sub
