10/10 cardboard cutout placements, when your camera panned left and we saw the 2nd cutout you have I lol'd. Thank you for providing your insight to the game, it was very interesting. Your english is good mate
This has gotta be one of the best S+Bs yet, Magixx was surprisingly funny and had a lot of insight and a lot of the humour and banter crossed the language barrier easily.
Absolutely! His English is not perfect but if you care to understand him, his points are great and he's also funny! Love Team Spirit and Snake + Banter!
Gotta say I love when pros come out of their comfort zone and do content for the community. Despite his English not being the best huge props for doing this and I hope it leads to other current pros coming on more often
I'm honestly very positively surprised by how articulate Magixx is in English. Post-game interviews last at most a few minutes so they aren't much to go by.
It might be because I’m relatively new to following pro CS, but I was not expecting such in-depth analysis/recounting from Magixx. This was a great cast. I really, thoroughly enjoyed listening to the whole thing. However, the last section with Magixx breaking down his final was exceptionally engaging, and I am quite impressed with his willingness to speak openly about an emotionally charged moment. As a side note: quite impressed with his English as well, I certainly would not want to do a 2 hour show speaking Russian! Props all around, and thank you!
Cannot say enough how much value this interview has for the community. Thank you Magixx. Thank you Maui. And thank you - to the historian of esports - Thorin.
Donk was cool and all on the Blast Bounty, but sh1r0, nasal strips chopper, zont1x (incendiary grenade incident :D), magixx too - they were sooo solid as a team. Like a well-oiled mechanism. If donk doesn't hit all his shots, it's ok. Guys will still power through anyone
Thorin you are the undisputed best at getting CS guests. I’m so happy to listen to this with Magixx, and all your the reflections are fire. As an American it’s so hard to find interviews with these Russian players. Historian.
Remember Banks asked him something like «what happened there?» after their map loss during the finals and he just tossed a «we got fucked», and left it at that.
I saw that smirk from Mauisnake at the end when Magixx said Frozen missed his shots because he was probably shaking. Awesome guest, did a double take when I saw the preview and it was magixx. Thank you!
really really sxurpised by this. So far only one question in and its great, much better english than a thought and a good response. If we got this magixx on stage interviews id love it!
Magixx! so surprise on this thanks for coming out for a podcast. such great insight. Thorin when are you going back to CS2 Desk? the last Elisa tournament was fire!.
No way! Awesome guest. Demo watching is my favourite thing in any game. I love learning the game by watching my past matches, seeing my opponents’ pov, etc. The CS2 demo viewer looks bad, the way the mouse works is awful, and sometimes it’s laggy, stuttery, or totally breaks if you go back. The fact it’s unusable is one of the reasons I don’t want to play. Even GO had fragmovies on the decline.
On the question of Fragmovies - I think the problem is not the CS2 demo viewer being shit, rather the fact that the videos don't get the viewers, equivalent to the work put into them. The HLTV Top 20 2023 Fragmovie is hands down the very best one I've ever watched, the editor put so much effort into it and it barely got 200k views. That's a massive downer for people that make the high effort fragmovies.
Comparing bigu and the leaders like cadian/snappi where when they get the stars the lose some of their system. It's a very interesting thought but hard to say it would happen or not but could be a great speculative point
Having Magixx on after maui stated directly after the major that -magixx +kyousuke is a move he'd go for. Gives me the same energy as when thorin interviewed blade during the drama where cis fans were incorrectly claiming Richard called blade a clown but nonetheless thorin and Richard were indeed calling for his head a bit.
@Sok4h that's a great one! It doesn't fit in the sense that it was 1 "forced" and 2 its not like it's an "achievement" that kassad got hooxi on the desk like it is with the two examples I listed. HOWEVER despite it not being a perfect fit. Well unlike thorin+blade/maui+magixx With Kassad+hooxi there was ACTUAL beef. Genuine feelings of "I don't fuck with this dude" So because its such an extreme example of 2 polarizing conflicting personalities, frankly I think it takes the cake DESPITE not fully fitting hahaha. Great example! :D
Very surprised by magixx's english. Also seems to be able to convey well his points, which are quite interesting too, especially because he's quite young as well.
A great point Magixx made is that Heroic might be using the Sangal core temporarily, waiting to get their own vrs points in order, and then will swap for Nilo after. This seems like another weird thing caused by the VRS system.
@@sentonbeeblo170 Didn't they say that Nilo had some personal issues? Unless they lied, but why would they. They probably wanted sangal + sunpayus + nilo, but went for tn1r at the last moment as a plan B (that also happened to work). And maden is just change from the deal with falcons.
I think it's pretty obviously implied that Nilo has something outside the game going on right now so he's not in the right headspace to compete professionally at the moment. Heroic probably only learned of this late into negotiation with him and decided it was still worth it. If it was just about cheesing VRS he would have played at Blast.
Question for you guys, would the reason for the top 4 teams not attending PGL Cluj be because of schedulingof other events? or just to avoid burnout. After I heard the announcement I of the teams I was so bummed out that I couldnt meet Spirit and so many romanians are dissapointed that they cant watch iM play live on hes home turf. Im thankful for magixx going in a bit deeper about the situation but im curious about your opinion on this matter.
Shows like this are so important because for me it completely changed my perspective on magixx… I used to think he was kind of a knobhead because he was trolling in the post game interviews.. hearing him bring up so many interesting details about being a player and teammate, along with his humour, made me realize I was too shallow in assesing his personality… Bravo LFN, best collection of CS and esports entertainment
1:03:30 On the point about demos, I spend literally 10s of hours every big tournament in them for making videos and in short: Yea theyre a shitshow, they are buggy and have a ton of glitches even in the baseline functionality. Like for example the timelines are supposed to show the start and end of the rounds and almost never do and X-ray bugs out when you skip from one point in the round back to another. Also I know this from talking to a buddy whos building a demo viewer but all TOs demos are slightly different because of all their specific server configs and plugins so like BLAST for example their demos just dont work on external sites most of time and cant be viewed outside of the game client.

@@Poloolpp2 thank you for the insight!! Great podcast Mr.Magixx!!
FFS xD
Mentioning pololoop over craftmeister is crazy
10/10 cardboard cutout placements, when your camera panned left and we saw the 2nd cutout you have I lol'd. Thank you for providing your insight to the game, it was very interesting. Your english is good mate
This has gotta be one of the best S+Bs yet, Magixx was surprisingly funny and had a lot of insight and a lot of the humour and banter crossed the language barrier easily.
Surprisingly funny? This is the GOAT that gave the "I think we will get fucked" prediction on back to back days at Blast Bounty
valid, I just wasn’t familiar with his game
Absolutely! His English is not perfect but if you care to understand him, his points are great and he's also funny! Love Team Spirit and Snake + Banter!
Thorin is so irrelevant major winners join him on the podcast
Gotta say I love when pros come out of their comfort zone and do content for the community. Despite his English not being the best huge props for doing this and I hope it leads to other current pros coming on more often
This builds Magixx's value so much just because he does media. His English will be fantastic in a few years if he keeps it up
I'm honestly very positively surprised by how articulate Magixx is in English. Post-game interviews last at most a few minutes so they aren't much to go by.
“no” “yea” “we’re getting fucked” lol
Kinda like in Football. Imagine running for an hour and then you’re supposed to be somewhat coherent in a second language 😂
They got poloopp on snake and banter… glad to see my Twitter goat getting some recognition
19:06 😭😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
CULTURAL IMPACT OFF THE CHARTS

Okay this is wild… haven‘t watched yet, but this is either going to be straight fire, or just magixx saying "no" 😭😂
Lmao it’s sad but true. Usually you can tell by how long the video is it looks promising
magixx is NOT the one i expected here. Great to hear him. Great lad.
Shoutout to magixx I'm sure doing a podcast in english wasn't easy but I loved hearing his thoughts
This was a great episode, Magixx's range of English as he warmed up was a treat and loved the major anecdotes at the end
was not expecting this!
straight fire guest
Cannot say enough how much value this interview has for the community. Thank you Magixx. Thank you Maui. And thank you - to the historian of esports - Thorin.
THATS GONNA BE A BANGER LMAO. THE ULTIMATE INTERVIEW TROLL IS ON THE PODCAST
how you've managed to get the guy who hates interviews on is insane
@@___UN any proofs that he hates interview or u just think so?
@LarsStinks he usually doesn't take them seriously or answer the question, but maybe that's just because BanKs asks bad questions
He loves cs twitter more so he did that for us
Magixx seems like a good lad and it's good to see him doing interviews and speaking confidently about his team
Great episode lads, Magixx was very articulate. Great to see this side of him.
You cheer for spirit cuz of donk, i cheer for spirit cuz of magixx. We are not the same.
Donk was cool and all on the Blast Bounty, but sh1r0, nasal strips chopper, zont1x (incendiary grenade incident :D), magixx too - they were sooo solid as a team. Like a well-oiled mechanism. If donk doesn't hit all his shots, it's ok. Guys will still power through anyone
magixx has been my top favs since redbull 2v2 event he played with sdy
THE MOST UNEXPECTED GUEST OF ALL TIME. WHO'S NEXT? HOOXI? FALLEN? STAY TUNED!!!
Let’s go! I wonder if he’s feeling thank you today.
Lessgo! My man, love to see you here. I was rooting for you from when you were playing with patsi. Best Major mvp performance
Thorin you are the undisputed best at getting CS guests. I’m so happy to listen to this with Magixx, and all your the reflections are fire. As an American it’s so hard to find interviews with these Russian players. Historian.
Maui: drinking beer without any pressure
Crazy good guest! ❤
Great to hear more from a player/team we usually just get those extra short interviews at a LAN
Goro Majima in the background sums up magixx's humour so well.
Remember Banks asked him something like «what happened there?» after their map loss during the finals and he just tossed a «we got fucked», and left it at that.
i loved it, and immediate cut off after that xD
I saw that smirk from Mauisnake at the end when Magixx said Frozen missed his shots because he was probably shaking.
Awesome guest, did a double take when I saw the preview and it was magixx. Thank you!
can you timestamp it
nvm foudn it
really really sxurpised by this. So far only one question in and its great, much better english than a thought and a good response.
If we got this magixx on stage interviews id love it!
Magixx! so surprise on this thanks for coming out for a podcast. such great insight. Thorin when are you going back to CS2 Desk? the last Elisa tournament was fire!.
Great to see Thorin brings all the CS grandma's to the show! First Dycha, now Magixx, who's next?
Ending was gold
shoutout Magixx, love seeing him out of his comfort zone and holding it down in this ep
17:49 Poloolpp mentioned rahhh 🦅🦅🦅 🐐🐐🐐

Goro Majima 😎
4:19 straight fire reference 🔥
cant believe we got magixx before jL. love to see more pros come over
super great episode. thanks guys!
Magixx's English is so good!
Magixx seemed like a good guest who got more comfortable as the show continued
Insane
This the gateway to get donk on the podcast and I’m here for it.
Magixx actually quite a cerebral player, alot of specific tactical reflections on the recent Spirit matches even in a 2nd language.
Holy shit.
Incredible to have Magixx on S&B, very cool content !
Breaking out the expensive wine bottle for watching this 🍷
Mad insightful and hilarious content with one of the GOATs is alright,
...but I'm still hung up on Maui's bowling pin.
Love you legends.
Great episode, I loved it.
Hey! Boris seems like a chill guy!
wait what is this allowed? magixx??? holy shit im hyped hahaha
when magixx actually chooses to give some insight, its quite interesting. great guest
I legit thought this thumbnail was AI generated for a second. Craziness.
Thorin delivered again
PLEASE MORE PLAYERS AS GUESTS
On the question of Fragmovies - I think the problem is not the CS2 demo viewer being shit, rather the fact that the videos don't get the viewers, equivalent to the work put into them.

Thorin's good point aged like FINE WINE today after Pain DISMANTLED VP at Kato play-ins.
WTF WHERE DID THIS COME FROM
So cool u got one of the spirit boys on!
Holy shit, Cinema guest
I can really see Magixx on a desk in like 7 years after he's done. He'd be great
Return of the Ajnin was the best frag movie. I wonder if Maui remembers that one.
BANGER
Banger
Majima being in the background of Magixx is funny.
Comparing bigu and the leaders like cadian/snappi where when they get the stars the lose some of their system. It's a very interesting thought but hard to say it would happen or not but could be a great speculative point
Having Magixx on after maui stated directly after the major that -magixx +kyousuke is a move he'd go for. Gives me the same energy as when thorin interviewed blade during the drama where cis fans were incorrectly claiming Richard called blade a clown but nonetheless thorin and Richard were indeed calling for his head a bit.
@@trocoplaytv1254 it reminded me of kassad having to be on the desk with hoodie after getting to the finals
@Sok4h that's a great one! It doesn't fit in the sense that it was 1 "forced" and 2 its not like it's an "achievement" that kassad got hooxi on the desk like it is with the two examples I listed.
HOWEVER despite it not being a perfect fit.
Well unlike thorin+blade/maui+magixx
With Kassad+hooxi there was ACTUAL beef. Genuine feelings of "I don't fuck with this dude"
So because its such an extreme example of 2 polarizing conflicting personalities, frankly I think it takes the cake DESPITE not fully fitting hahaha.
Great example! :D
Gomez and Magixx in two days is crazy
1:10:16 Colon's 1.6 fragmovie is still the best
Magixx Yakuza fan ! Coool
Banger guest for a banger show
i really hope spirit doesn't remove anyone for someone else
Very surprised by magixx's english. Also seems to be able to convey well his points, which are quite interesting too, especially because he's quite young as well.
magixx is actually very smart. he's graduated from high school with gold medal, after all.
Great job from Spirit, they started winning rounds even without donk. You can see the team is growing instead of just relying on his kills.
A great point Magixx made is that Heroic might be using the Sangal core temporarily, waiting to get their own vrs points in order, and then will swap for Nilo after. This seems like another weird thing caused by the VRS system.
@@sentonbeeblo170 i thought this would be it but tN1R was really a late addotion as replacement. May still happen ofc
@@sentonbeeblo170 Didn't they say that Nilo had some personal issues? Unless they lied, but why would they. They probably wanted sangal + sunpayus + nilo, but went for tn1r at the last moment as a plan B (that also happened to work). And maden is just change from the deal with falcons.
@@ФёдорДебилко maden is still a Falcons player, though.
Instant click, hyped
Magixx was so good on here!
this is gonna be good 😉
480p Maui is kinda fire
The movie vault had alot of 1.6 stuff too.
I miss that shit...
My favorite was single gaming 3: streL
In the past 6 months the demos got better and better and I think we will definitely see more Frag-Movies in 2025😃
I think it's pretty obviously implied that Nilo has something outside the game going on right now so he's not in the right headspace to compete professionally at the moment.
Heroic probably only learned of this late into negotiation with him and decided it was still worth it.
If it was just about cheesing VRS he would have played at Blast.
Yeah for sure. Some family tragedy and time needed to recover sounds likely to me. Maybe we will learn later.
enders game. beautiful ;)

18:49 HAHAHAHAHA. KING!
OH WHAT
Nice!
Maui definitely criticised Spirit for skipping Rio but that was from the perspective that it hurt Donk’s chances of getting HLTV #1
Never forgot the magixx 1v5 clutch in fpl, spirit havent..

Sometimes i watch thorin talk at 2x speed so i can hear rap god remixes.
first time watching this podcast, why thorin is set to 2x speed ?
