For me kennys is a phenom. The guy never was the best player. But for sure the best player to watch. His skill was visual for fans. You could really imagine yourself doing this stuff in your dreams. Same is for scream

If you were to use this Mount Rushmore format but with more supportive roles being the theme I feel that could make for some interesting discussion and be a good chance to shed some light on some under appreciated pieces from the best rosters across CSGO.

For me, the dev1ce vs. s1mple point for GOAT comes down to this... I think s1mple could do what dev1ce does with the right elements around him, I don't think that it would be the same the other way around if dev1ce was forced into positions where the only way to win games was playing insane rotations like s1mple. We got to see him slow down in that beastmode Na'Vi roster before the war in Ukraine.

@xlgapelsin6173 4 ай бұрын

Good point but tbh here i dont think S1mple could play like Dev1ce and vice versa. S1mple is like KennyS where he will just walk into a site and quickscope 3 people while Dev1ce would never play like that

@Stfugb2s 7 ай бұрын

2:33 - when you (miraculously) hit an outrageous AWP flick, who's name do you call? KennyS is the "Kobe" of crazy AWP shots. I'm pretty sure I've heard s1mple and other elite AWPers jokingly say "KennyS" before/after shots.

is it me or is olofmeister a bit of a boring player like u see it at the end of the game "oh wow olof has 32 kills" but u can never remember them. can u remember a single olof kill ? but try guardian...u can see the flick i remember a guardian flick.

@@Jerome-iwnl Factually and verifiably wrong. CS2 players have heard of the ZywOo, I see a lot of "ZywOoPEEK" nicknames everywhere for instance. He's just the best player to have ever touch CS, saying CS2 players have not heard of him is ludicrous.

@@Jerome-iwnl So no argument? Expected from anti ZywOo. Reality is ZywOo is alongside simple, shox, KennyS and all the other legends of the game. Saying no CS2 players know who is ZywOo is at best delusional. CS lives from its professional scene and ZywOo is the best player we've seen since CS was created. He is a super star and of course famous.

goat for its dev1ce is the goat because of his longevity and his clean style. was the best, took a bug hit to his mental health (which I can relate to because Im in a similar situation rn), comes back and is still a fcking beast on the server. what a chad.

I mean sure guardian had one more top 20 appearance but kenny was above him one every one of those lists except 2015. He was also still really good in 2019 and first half of 2020(I'd argue, a top 10-15 player even) until he dropped off. I wouldn't really say that guardian outlasted him
