A bit unfortunate that some of the 'title cards' for some players is messed up. (brokys has footage of hunter, hunters has footage of sunpayus). Other than that, great format.

Started watching CS in 2017, watching the minors leading up to Krakow. NiKo quickly became my favorite player, but in the last couple of years it's almost been even MORE fun to watch hunter. His consistency, calm nature, and incredible skill is so unique. He reminds me of fer and rain in those ways, and those are two of my absolute all time favorites too. What a legend.
Sh1ro had such a big downfall this year. In the first half he was the only player to rival Zywoo, with some peoppe saying he might even beat out Zywoo for number 1 if Zywoo deopped off even a little bit. Not he's not even cracking top 10. Hope he comes back man
he's cracking top 10 for certain. this is launders worse pick, even though half of his 11-20 make no sense (none of cadian/xertion/twistzz/sh1ro/sunpayus will find themselves between 11 and 20).

I disagree with stavn being here tbh. It's not because of the incident but because whenever it came to big matches and finals he was never on the server, consistently being near the bottom. While he was the most important factor in why Heroic were going so deep into tournaments he was also the reason why they never won anything, with Cadian usually stepping up to the challenge.
I feel like twistzz at 14 is a bit too high, all the faze fans that I know feel like he has been way too inconsistent this year, and has been a huge reason as to why faze has struggled prior to cs2. He held them back massively in Rio , Paris and Cologne, three of the biggest tournaments in 2023. There was this talk about him no longer being motivated after winning pro league early in the year , something that he sort of confirmed himself. I don't think a late surge in cs2 is worthy of a top 14 placement. I mean other than Karrigan, he is the only one that dropped below a 0.9 hltv rating , and he did it multiple times (in some of the biggest events too). I have higher expectations of a top 14 player, and especially of a faze rifler.
Those are good points, I still stand behind twistzz being the third biggest player for faze and is always better than his stats when I watch faze but 11-20 is always a bit harder to lock down exactly where someone precisely is over a year
@@torinkeenan2718sh1ro just had so many fewer runs, no wins, minimal cs2 data that didn’t look good and slightly inflated stats based on his style. I believe sh1ro massively but he also had important games where I saw him choke despite having a strong KD

ur editor is fantastic, feels like the whole video has a vibe that perfectly matches you while being distinctly different from most content that is being put out nowa days, laid back but high quality, no yelling or attention grabs, just good content and good vibes, good shit VonVorter
Actually I can't even imagine a real top-20 list without Jame. Yes he might not have much of the highlights, but this man is a creator of the unique gamestyle, which makes VP one of the hardest teams to play against even without big star players. His calmness, discipline, ability to control the economy on the server and the fact that it is so hard to kill him on server makes Jame one of a kind
the splash screens were off, it showed the next player while talking about the current one. Showed hunter when talking about broky. Showed SunPayus while talking about hunter.
I paused the video after top 19 cause i was tired after work and needed some sleep, so i went to sleep and dreamed that top 18 was NAF, it was crazy. When i wake up i couldnt remember if it was a dream or was for real and had to come check. Nice list for now.
Lau, for the 13th spot the animation shows 12 and for the 12th it shows 11, a little editing mistake but its understandable, I love the video though, waiting for the next ones!
7:15 "Jabbi was the best rifler this year... Until frozen was..." Hello? I know Niko just had a shaky game but??? Is he not clearly the best rifler this year? Lau??? Edit: Shiro at 15? Is it just me? Is that not absurdly low...
That’s gonna be pretty high for sh1ro considering he has no CS2 presence, no majors no tournament wins and few deep runs. He was the best in the few games they played and obviously passes the eye test but also choked once or twice
its like you forgot ropz excists and that theres the young generation like donk, frozen, jimpphat and so on who look better then niko from mechanical point of view at least.
@@laundersre: Niko, I see, fair enough. Niko did have a much better 2nd half, and I missed the first six months part that you mentioned in the vid. re: Shiro, I guess I understand if you value entire tournament impact more. Though, I think on a team like C9 that was pretty much wholly washed up first half of 2023 and was still finding their footing after the Navi core move, Shiro personally seemed like their pillar through and through on a game to game basis. I understand and respect your criteria though! Was just shocked is all. Thanks for the response
@@Kepitsecret dont get started on ropz when im sure you're 100% on that recency bias train. Jimmphat is FAR from being best rifler. Again, recency bias. We're talking the ENTIRE 2023 year. He had a great EPL and has been good since but the discussion is BEST rifler. Donk quite literally hasnt played enough this year for us to even judge if he can play well on big stages or consistently for an entire year. Frozen is my second best rifler, not the first. He's damn close, but Niko sweeps on impact alone. Next year, I predict he'll be the top rifler even with Donk around, but this year is clearly Niko.
From broky's intro video onwards, the player displayed is not the one being talked about btw. (e.g. 15:43 shows SunPayus, not hunter.) Great stuff otherwise though, love your casting and videos.
@@Blim92izy i think so too but he hasnt proven enough yet so i understand arguments to put him in top 20 or exclude him. I hope he goes to a bigger team and dominates the scene
can't believe you didn't include any of nertz/electronic/ax1le/magisk but somehow twistzz/cadian/xertion made it. sh1ro was also criminally low given you gave Kscerato top 10 with NO deep runs and BlameF top 10 with fewer deep run s than sh1ro. better stats than m0nesy this year who I'm almost certain you put 3rd. also forgot s1mple who had worse stats and almost the exact same number of deep runs but again worse stats.

Love this Video Lau. It's a refreshing sight of things and style. There's one fault. The first showing of the player is wrong for broky and hunter. Keep up your nice work!
Going to shoot the gun early and assume I also don't know the last two players. I guessed 1.5 (couldn't decide on the two options from CA) right off your clues. Also sup with the awp? Seems fine to me whenever I decide to use it.
Great video lau, I noticed a small error. When you shower off hunter, the title card was for sunpayus. Then for sunpayus, the same title card. Just wanted to point it out
electronic still has decent stats this year and a chance at top 20 somewhere between 20-18 at the highest. b1t has abysmal stats and he'd be lucky to make top 25/30. particularly his performance in playoffs and big games is horrendous.@@entergamings115
karrigan needs to be in the top 5 this year. I wouldn't be able to recall a single year in which an igl has had so much impact on making his team successful but also shaping the general meta of the game
I honestly quite like the list so far. Very fitting that Cadian is here at 20 when last year, his CIS counterpart was in at 20. Jabbi definitely had a massive falloff over the second half of the year, so he went from a top 10 player to maybe a top 15 for me. Sh1ro, because of Cloud9 not being a Blast partner, didn't get a whole lot of play during the year, and because of Cloud9's passive style emphasizing saving the AWP, his HLTV rating is inflated, at least to me. The one thing that seems strange to me is Stavn. Sure he's definitely been disappointing in the biggest games, but with all the deep runs that Heroic has had this year, I would have thought he was a top 10 player at the very least.
might want to check your eyes if you think sh1ro being outside the top 10 isn't as strange as stavn who has no right to be in the top 10. he's #2 in KPR ahead of all your favorite players -zywoo, #1 for rounds with kills and top 3 for rating vs top 5 opponents behind NiKo and zywoo.
@@B0bB0b1nskiabsolutely. What makes sh1ros placement event more ridiculous is that Laus main argument for said placement is the fact that Sh1ro has no tournament wins and only a small amount of deep tournament runs. However lau will have Kscerato, Blamef and device all above Sh1ro, while said players have even less deep runs than Sh1ro and are missing the tier 1.5/2 tournament wins that Sh1ro had this year. Also s1mple will be above Sh1ro with stats significantly worse and only a bit more deep runs.
EXACTLY. Also frozen/spinx have worse stats and aren't even much better in accolades because each had at least 1 event WIN where they sucked as well as a few subpar deep runs.@@timmodrow437
@@timmodrow437bro twistzz is at 14. Even when cs2 started and faze were winning it was not because of him. He had a shit year and is above shiro. Like wtf. And wth is exertion doing here. And i wont even start about s1mple because missing 1/4 of a year it self should put his subpar performance in the 11-20 at least
@@mariushager9983 yeah I fully agree. But I just wanted to point out how little sense Laus explanation for sh1ros placement (the fact that he had few deep tournament runs) makes when considering that 2-3 people with even worse deep tournament runs will be somewhere in the top 10 (atleast 5 places higher up than Sh1ro) while having worse stats.
I need to watch sunpayus more because I didn't realize he was so highly rated. tbh most ence matches I've watched deep in tournaments he doesn't have as much impact as I expected. I guess just undersampling bias tho

Ropz is barely the best cs2 player anymore, Zywoo is probably better. Elige is definitely better than ropz imo. Either way, how tf is ropz nr1 when he wasn’t even top5 in csgo?
ropz over zywoo my goodness get help
@lau Hunter's intro vid is Sunpayus and not hunter
Trying to guess what player is coming up based on their introduction is alot of fun
Love this Video Lau. It's a refreshing sight of things and style.
There's one fault. The first showing of the player is wrong for broky and hunter.
Keep up your nice work!
stavn and jabbi - in my mind all i see is two guy buy the pool singing "i'm an island boy"
I think lau messed up the images of the players for some of them, like 12 and 13
thanks for listing me
Editor at #13?? Rolling #12 clip
It seems all of the clips after 13 are messed up
20. Cadian
19. Elige
18. Xertion
17. Jabbi the stabbi
16. Stavn
15. Shiro
14. Twistzz
13. Broky
12. Hunter
11. Sunpayus
Forgot about Jame bro
That date just looks really good on you.
Is the awp really that much weaker? Id like to see the facts 🤔
I feel like broky could be higher in that list...
Atleast higher than Sunpayus
Going to shoot the gun early and assume I also don't know the last two players. I guessed 1.5 (couldn't decide on the two options from CA) right off your clues. Also sup with the awp? Seems fine to me whenever I decide to use it.
Great video lau, I noticed a small error. When you shower off hunter, the title card was for sunpayus. Then for sunpayus, the same title card. Just wanted to point it out
great vid lau, love the visuals
Electronic and B1t better be here
probably not electronic since 5/6 of the year he was the igl
electronic still has decent stats this year and a chance at top 20 somewhere between 20-18 at the highest. b1t has abysmal stats and he'd be lucky to make top 25/30. particularly his performance in playoffs and big games is horrendous.@@entergamings115
both inconsistent and lacked good runs.
the title cards 13 and after ;(
Launders has officially turned into the Anthony Fantano of cs...
I've got some questions for you on a few of these Mr. Lau or rather the exclusion of a few, though I'm sure you're just saving them for the later...
ok who is missing now?
blameF
device
zywoo
spinx?
monesy
niko?
electronic
s1mple
JL
Bit?
Kcerato
Fl1t?
Donk?
Frozen
Ropz
Jimmphat?
who else?
Broeki intro has mistake you show nr 12 before his gameplay
Since CS GO has been officially discarded, would you make a video on Top 20 CS Player on all Time. I would love to see your view and opinion.
So stoked for this bro
Instead of showing brokys image you showed hunter image. When it became hunters turn it showed sunpayus instead of hunter. You showed sunpayus 2wice
When Top 20 KZ Players list???
its so crazy how broky is 13. There are so many elite players this year
i think you are rushing this a little bit, maybe top-15 is stable already but blast & atlanta might impact the last 2-5 spots on the list
A little error in the animation from 13-11
15:42 Spoilers :C
karrigan needs to be in the top 5 this year. I wouldn't be able to recall a single year in which an igl has had so much impact on making his team successful but also shaping the general meta of the game
The editing is messed up for 13 & 12
I honestly quite like the list so far. Very fitting that Cadian is here at 20 when last year, his CIS counterpart was in at 20. Jabbi definitely had a massive falloff over the second half of the year, so he went from a top 10 player to maybe a top 15 for me. Sh1ro, because of Cloud9 not being a Blast partner, didn't get a whole lot of play during the year, and because of Cloud9's passive style emphasizing saving the AWP, his HLTV rating is inflated, at least to me. The one thing that seems strange to me is Stavn. Sure he's definitely been disappointing in the biggest games, but with all the deep runs that Heroic has had this year, I would have thought he was a top 10 player at the very least.
might want to check your eyes if you think sh1ro being outside the top 10 isn't as strange as stavn who has no right to be in the top 10. he's #2 in KPR ahead of all your favorite players -zywoo, #1 for rounds with kills and top 3 for rating vs top 5 opponents behind NiKo and zywoo.
@@B0bB0b1nskiabsolutely. What makes sh1ros placement event more ridiculous is that Laus main argument for said placement is the fact that Sh1ro has no tournament wins and only a small amount of deep tournament runs. However lau will have Kscerato, Blamef and device all above Sh1ro, while said players have even less deep runs than Sh1ro and are missing the tier 1.5/2 tournament wins that Sh1ro had this year. Also s1mple will be above Sh1ro with stats significantly worse and only a bit more deep runs.
EXACTLY. Also frozen/spinx have worse stats and aren't even much better in accolades because each had at least 1 event WIN where they sucked as well as a few subpar deep runs.@@timmodrow437
@@timmodrow437bro twistzz is at 14. Even when cs2 started and faze were winning it was not because of him. He had a shit year and is above shiro. Like wtf. And wth is exertion doing here. And i wont even start about s1mple because missing 1/4 of a year it self should put his subpar performance in the 11-20 at least
@@mariushager9983 yeah I fully agree. But I just wanted to point out how little sense Laus explanation for sh1ros placement (the fact that he had few deep tournament runs) makes when considering that 2-3 people with even worse deep tournament runs will be somewhere in the top 10 (atleast 5 places higher up than Sh1ro) while having worse stats.
Why is Elige being framed as if he wasn't cut from Liquid?
Based Laugoat putting Xertion in his top 20
Still waiting for Broky Week
I need to watch sunpayus more because I didn't realize he was so highly rated. tbh most ence matches I've watched deep in tournaments he doesn't have as much impact as I expected. I guess just undersampling bias tho
Im sad that b1t isnt in the top 20. Wouldve liked to see him 20-15 maybe. Not too far behind twistzz
I personally like the previous intro music more
so we back coach
Kscerato plays league of legends?
It was so scary not seeing Sunpayus on the top, thank god
you started to mess up the intro cards at broky, you played 12 for 13, 11 for 12
xertion is really underrated
Am I tripping or did you say "Hunter at #12" and then it said "Number 11"?
