  • Counter-Strike is littered with stories of skilled young players who never really got their head right. But occasionally you get one who wins that INNER firefight -- and that’s the story of Astralis’ Magisk.
    Presented by CS Money: Your CSGO Skin Expert. Find out more here: www.dexerto.cl...
    The now major winning talisman would have been as shocked as the rest of world when Kjaerbye left Astralis for North in one of the most controversial moves in CSGO history, but that opportunity was not wasted by Magisk.

    This is an inspiring story, Magisk had a tough road but he got there.

    @JonasDarnettLoges 4 года назад +81

    Obviously one of the better signings ever done in CSGO (maybe CS overall) history. So funny how a seemingly unfortunate situation (Kjaerbye going to North) could end up turning the tide completely. Love wathching the guys play.

      Yeah, maybe. But if safe playstyle works, why not use it? My second favorite team is Mousesports, which also uses tactics over individual plays. Or that loss from NaVi when they were up against Syman Gaming? That was textbook Counter-Strike, which I do not consider boring

      dont mind people saying astralis is boring, as a swede who (danes and swedes are nemesis) astralis plays beutiful cs.
      an sports analogy i like to use is, a goalie doing a massive "TV save" is flashy, but most of the times, if he wasnt screwing up and standing in the wrong place to begin with he wouldnt need to have done an insane save.
      And thats how astralis plays CS minimizing stupid mistakes and taking the percentage fights.

    I remember asking them at the time "why not Konfig?" Thinking he was the pinnacle of CS, but I guess I was way wrong

    • @matevo7745
      @matevo7745 4 года назад +40

      Konfig got too cocky at one point. He thought he was the best and would destroy anyone. Being confident is good and all but respect is always top priority. Stewie maybe cocky and all but he respects other players. After konfig got destroyed by kennys he went on a downward spiral

    • @jacquesl9972
      @jacquesl9972 4 года назад +13

      @@matevo7745 Stewie ain't cocky. He knows he isn't the best player in the server, but knows he's the one willing to take risks in order to let the team succeed. Konfig definitely is your standard "cocky" player who is skilled, but never put aside his ego which is why we never saw Dignitas have similar success to Astralis pre-Magisk despite having a really talented line up.

    • @mamamia112
      @mamamia112 4 года назад +1

      Man they obviously gonna pick k0nfig when the time kjaerbye got into north. But the thing is k0nfig is an entry fragger and dupreeh figures it out saying it not suitable for them to have another entry fragger on the team.

    IMO Magisk needed a team, that had an IGL & coach who knew how to extract his abilities. Also having tier 1 players around him, helped him evolve into a sick entry fragger. It is a professional ORG, and he needed that too.
    Best team to ever touch the game.

    Talks about his awesome spray transfer
    Proceeds to show a clip getting 3 kills where he specifically stops shotting between each kill.
    And that right after talking about recoil control as they were showing a pistol round.
    It isn't a big deal, but it really wouldn't hurt getting someone who understands CS to be present in the editing room.
    It's a bit damaging to the narrative when you are talking about one thing, but showing something completely different.
