Because I'm a BOZO. This is the game that ended the 87-0 LAN winstreak for the Ninjas. www.hltv.org/matches/2239492/ninjas-in-pyjamas-vs-virtuspro-sltv-starseries-v-finals
i was just abut to say like "I could've sworn it ended on mirage" good to know I'm not completely amateur about the ninjas history, it is my favourite team after all
Just to note, you said the "star four had been looking for a replacement" at 3:44, if you listen to the Reflections interviews with NiP members, most recently Friberg, they all state that removing Fiff was the organizations choice, and that they would have liked to keep playing together with Fifflaren indefinitely.
As a Swedish cs fan I can absolutely confirm. Although I want swedish cs back, I wouldnt want nip or fnatic to do it. Johhny speeds and metizport are growing and if Nilo gets on johhny speeds, we might actually have something to work with.
@@eliasnordenman5725 I live in finland but good guess nonetheless. And I actually like the old NIP, just the new one with garbage management got me worked up
I love that you focused on NiP after the 87-0 streak. I feel like a lot of retrospective NiP content we get focuses exclusively on that era up until their major win, and this was refreshing.
They were the reason I fell in love with cs esports their energy and just how happy and sick plays they had were amazing. Im old and my memory is bad but either f0rest or friberg's pistol entries were unmatched!
@@pcman--5326 cos he's not been on a team in that long basically so obviously no new clips. He was one of the most talked about players for his entire career
The Ninjas, especially GeT_RiGhT and f0rest were the team/people who brought me and many of my friends to the game and the esports scene we love. The loss against Vega really hit deep but to this day I still watch their streams and REZ' play. I feel like he deserves better though. The "newer" NIP seems like a pot of noodles where no sauce sticks. Seeing first GeT_RiGhT and now f0rest retire made me realise how long I played this game and how old I got. Having a full-time job playing sometimes in the evening and looking back were it all came from was a great callback. Keep up the amazing content it's what the CS-RUclips scene really should offer!
incredible video highlighting the team that made me love E-sports. As a young swede it was hard watching those downs but when NIP decided to be the best it was magic thank you
What a most beautiful vid! I remember forrest and get_right from 1.6, i remember the rise and fall. I remember the old SK and fnatic rivalries with that iconic rosters. Looking back in such sufficient commentated manner gives me chills. Well done! I'd love more of those revues.
Man these videos your making this year covering the old history of the CSGO scene are just incredible. Ive been heavily invested in the CS pro scene since 2013 and seeing these old lineups and tournaments i watched growing up is bringing back so many memories. I didnt get to make it, but my 3 closest friends also went to that first IEM Oakland tourney as their first and only CS event they've gone too. We are so hyped for the Austin Major next year we are all going to fly out for it.
wait i thought 87-0 ended on mirage vs vp's actual team back then being dosia's cis roster with kucher adren ange1 and fox from back in the day have i been misinformed this entire time?
PHY, I’m new to CS and I have just 200 hrs logged but oh man oh man I really can’t get enough of your videos. The raw emotion and ups and downs that you’re able to convey from tournaments from nearly a decade ago never ceases to amaze me and I am always looking forward to when you post now. Keep up the amazing work 🤙🏻
"Are those Red bulls for the commercials or can you actually drink them?" is the most humble thing I've seen in a while, such a sweet guy hahaha my heart omg 🥹
I see somebody is a fan of Secret Bases "deep rewind" series. Awesome video love how you ended it like they do just letting the moment play out and the video ends.
Great vid! Makes me feel nostalic, and reminds me of the good ol' times when I was 12 and started with csgo and was the biggest NIP fan. To this day one of my best moments in Counter Strike is, when i played Get Right back to back in matchmaking. Sadly these times are gone now...
The only win streak I can think of that is longer is De La Salle winning 151 football games in a row and they made a movie about it: When the Game Stands Tall
They were every new fan's favorite team. I used to believe back in 2014 that Fifflaren was like a top 10 player cause' they would finish top4 everytime. I would've also liked to seen a nod to Thorin considering that he made the phrase popular/coined it.
It's funny how you say if you don't got a team then you root for NiP cus that's what happened with me in 2016 when I got into CS esports , still got an NiP flag on my wall from 2017/18
you never forget to mention the boston major every video. havent watched the video yet, but i know this one is going to be good, saw the news of forest's retirement yesterday so this is aptly timed.
What an amazing piece of content. Thank you. Read the f0rest interview and I got teary-eyed seeing such a legend finnaly let go. He and GeT_RiGhT were just pure inspiration - pushing themselves, the age limit and through health-difficulties. True respect to my kings of Counter-Strike. We'll never forget you.

The moment you said polish legends i was like WHAT??🤨🤨
i was just abut to say like "I could've sworn it ended on mirage" good to know I'm not completely amateur about the ninjas history, it is my favourite team after all
was about to say it was vs VP rusia :)
would like to see a video on the aussie scene if thats possible

RUclips is evil for hiding this gem from me for 16 minutes
You had me in the first three words.
so true bestie
@@Jello_Criminalthe true crime here is switching to magenta eughhh
4 hours here its a shame
literally 1984 hiding it from us like that
Great timing with forrest's retirement
Kind of a coincidence as I working on this way before.
Or maybe I made him retire 😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️😶🌫️
@@PhyFPSplot twist
What a movie bro
Never forget, NIP launched the Arms Deal update and unknowingly minted multiple future millionaires
ohnepixel called again
I think the entirety of the CS community is waiting for the resurgence of the swedish scene. The chemistry of swedish squads used to be unmatched.
As a Swedish cs fan I can absolutely confirm. Although I want swedish cs back, I wouldnt want nip or fnatic to do it. Johhny speeds and metizport are growing and if Nilo gets on johhny speeds, we might actually have something to work with.
Not me. Love to hate on NIP, it's super fun

You dont knwo what is happenink in swedi(stan) now do you?
22:40 The sheer level of robbery that took place here almost deserves a video of its own. Imagine being eliminated for winning.
Allus redbull clip was something i had forgotten about. Man that made me laugh again years later.

"Yeah hold on I'll be right there sweetie, my Counter Strike history teacher just posted another BANGER of a lecture."
Did someone say Rez IEM Oakland 1858 mvp
IEM Babylon 4000BC MVP
f0rest is, was, one of the most consistent fraggers for 18 years. He is super slept on and not talked about.
Ah yes, forest. Super slept on, definitely not thought of as one of the greatest ever across multiple CS games
@@Dippa666 He isnt talked about like others, you dont have kill compilations, highlights all over the place or anything. Its very rare
@@thedarkcr0w Ur tripping
@@Dippa666 nah, i agree with him
i didn't hear or see name F0rest in like 5 years(

Thanks for making this video, it means a lot
God, i cant handel these nostalgic videos…. Makes me so Sad, but still happy to have been there
Great vid! The music selection is superb. 13:30 killed me xD
It "God Shattering Star" - from Fire Emblem Three Houses
What a most beautiful vid! I remember forrest and get_right from 1.6, i remember the rise and fall. I remember the old SK and fnatic rivalries with that iconic rosters. Looking back in such sufficient commentated manner gives me chills. Well done!
I'd love more of those revues.
When I heard he was 11 in 2015. I felt old
Same :DD
same bruv, but thats life.
I was ab to turn 10 lol
How are people born after 1999???
dude, your music choices are great. I was just vibing half the time
we NEED a golden five video if you hadnt made one already, love the content
Saying you were 11 in 2015 through me for a loop. I was only 15 but damn. Great video as always
im so olddd ;_;
I audibly yelped when God Shattering Star started playing. well done

you are correct
no, you were right, video is wrong
@@SnugglyDashie You are right.
Was looking for this comment to ensure my sanity.
These videos are getting better and better everytime, keep it up!
31:41 "inside of every dark cloud, there's rain. but inside of that there's rez" truly one of the sentence of all time
PHY, I’m new to CS and I have just 200 hrs logged but oh man oh man I really can’t get enough of your videos.
The raw emotion and ups and downs that you’re able to convey from tournaments from nearly a decade ago never ceases to amaze me and I am always looking forward to when you post now. Keep up the amazing work 🤙🏻
NIP magic was truly something special
Love kei's editting style. THanks for bringing him in to your team
incredible memories with this team good job you all you made this game famous
You deserve way more subscribers. Your content is top notch!
This is the pinnacle of story telling, loved every minute of it.
Some serious nostalgia here thank you for making this video brother
Love your content, man. Amazing stuff and storytelling. Rest in Pyjamas, Legend
I became a fan of CS really late so this history is much appreciated
honey , wake up!
new phy cs2 video just dropped
I’m sad that I wasn’t big into esports in CSGOs earlier days, but your videos make me feel like I was there. Awesome video homie!
another banger vid! your storytelling is amazing and entertaining and i cant wait for your next vid
"Are those Red bulls for the commercials or can you actually drink them?" is the most humble thing I've seen in a while, such a sweet guy hahaha my heart omg 🥹

good to see theletterkei as the editor, his videos are amazing.
Just letting you know I subbed with the little bell, because I can't get enough of your style of documenting esports history.
I love these videos, keep up the good work!
nip winning with dream theater music at the backgrouind is on point.
9:00 yo is that Lauren? Makes me realise just how long she’s been doing this. Legend
OH MY GOD, that Flipside upset triggered such ptsd in me :D man I love your videos, they are such a good trip down the memory lane, keep it up please
Good ole times. Thank you
Love when the crowd chants ”and I pee! and I pee!”
The only win streak I can think of that is longer is De La Salle winning 151 football games in a row and they made a movie about it: When the Game Stands Tall
Jon Bois/Secret base style videos but for Counter Strike, loving it!
i love these videos abt cs history
New video :DDD, all your videos are class
one of ur best videos ❤ brought me back
Love this style of video! Keep it up man!
Loving the content, well done.
this redbull clip is one of maybe the best clip of cs history.
You know when Phy plays Home by Sunshower sh*t is about to be embedded in history forever
CS stuff by No 5 from the umbrella academy, kickass

yes, a fellow Atomic Amnesia album connoseur
approved
Why is youtube hiding this gem yt channel love the work!
It's okay, their magic is back. They just lost Svenska Cupen 3:0 to Metizport who had a random lineup
I love hearing all this from CS's version of slimecicle
Keep it up phy, soon you'll make it big time, this is the best content on the platform
I was there at Dreamhack Malmö 2016, was a really fun tournament
As someone who followed the scene back from 2013-2019 very closely: NiP magic IS DEFINETELY REAL.
shed a tear, good video
04:18 Allu really reminds me of Kimi Raikkonen
No Kimi, you will not have the drink
Was visiting the mouz hq today now watching this gem while waiting for my train
you never forget to mention the boston major every video. havent watched the video yet, but i know this one is going to be good, saw the news of forest's retirement yesterday so this is aptly timed.
poggy pogchampion phy upload!!
Hey, thats us
Didn't expect to hear God Shattering Star in a CS video.
this is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 man love your videos keep it up man ❤❤❤
16:18 HellRaisers MENTIONED!!! RAAAAAAH!!!!!! 🗣
My favourite, 0:45 "Friberg".... Friberg
GeT_RiGhT also invented the lurk role all the way back in 1.6 🐐
Absolute cinema.
I started playing CS in 2014 being 11 Years old, NiP was my favourite team too, because of the name and GeT_RiGht
this guy makes really good videos :D
I remember in 1.6 days NiP were doing some crazy run boost strats in competition play
Damn this video reminds me how much I loved nip before…
Cheering for newer teams just never feel the same :(
What an amazing piece of content. Thank you.
Read the f0rest interview and I got teary-eyed seeing such a legend finnaly let go. He and GeT_RiGhT were just pure inspiration - pushing themselves, the age limit and through health-difficulties. True respect to my kings of Counter-Strike. We'll never forget you.
this vid is a gem
i lost it when you showed bball0928 I haven't thought about that guy in YEARS
Back when NIP wasn’t a joke
Nice work PHY brotherrrrrr
NIP actually went 0-3-0 in groups at epicenter 2016, creating a 4 way tie for the group and being eliminated only by round differential. 9:50
I love that when SK/LG shows up in these videos it is as the fucking boogey man, dude those times were peak.
I still have the paper that annouced REZ's IEM Oakland 1956 MVP
If I know one thing about PHY CS2, it’s that he WILL talk about Oakland 2018
Drillas about to be the miracle team. The WORLD'S team
i miss that NIP Magic Era, now I just follow them because REZ is still in it, and it's been very very hard being a NIP fan since then
Forest papá y cabra amazing player and great guy
