    I'm from Bosnia, so I'm probably biased, but this is hands down the best CS podcast I've ever listened to. I already knew a part of Niko's origin story since I was one of the kids attending those tournaments his parents hosted back in the day, but hearing it from him is even crazier, literally a child of CS. So happy he made it this big, and he's winning now with Hunter.

  • @sargeant45

    God damn this is excellent, my inner CS fan is so happy. Weird how people will place such weird expectations on CS players. Of course it would make sense they lose a couple games, they have been playing nonstop and building back momentum after career lows. It was weird how people were reacting on HLTV like they're washed and the era is over after one loss. This team still has a lot of fire and potential in the rest of the season. People act like CS players are robots and dehumanize them, when they are simply professionals doing a job like anyone else... It is amazing that we have so much talent and culture in this esport and we should all be kinder to each other and remember that we do this for the love of the game. This is NiKo's lowest point in his career statistically yet G2 is still winning. Truly an amazing story to see a great like this be able to flourish in a team and not feel like he constantly has to post his highest season ever to win, as CS fans we should be happy for NiKo and for G2 and where this team is at. It's a cliche at this point, but this really reminds me of old Astralis days where they were finally able to get the pieces they needed and overcome mental blocks to really win. One can only imagine all the emotions this team has gone through in the past few months. This type of shit is what CS is about! Teamwork and brotherhood/sisterhood... They've got everything done that they needed to have an excellent season and then some. Good luck to the boys

    i love drunk yanko, he has so much respect and admiration for a player like niko that he can't stop glazin him up. I don't mean this in a bad way, but in more of an envious way. I wan't to one day experience the kind of relationship it seems that yanko and niko have. Old head bringing up a young gunner watching him prosper into arguably the greatest rifler in csgo right now, he must feel so proud seeing someone from his region prosper to such heights. Feels like genuine friendship love

    After many years of pundits saying that he was a bad teammate because of how he vented his frustration, it's great to see this humble side of NiKo. It's clear that he knows that the team around him are very important to this period of success. m0nesy couldn't have found a better team to win with because he has the steadiest teammate in the game (Hunter) to keep him focused on reaching his future place as the greatest player in the game. All whilst having the best rifler in the world taking the heat away from him, and JKS as a fourth star. Crazy lineup. 4 of them have been top 20 players in their career. Hooxi and Hunter must be man managing this team perfectly. Brilliant to see everything working together, no matter how long this run of success lasts.
