To Save, or Not to Save: The Rise of CS:GO's Most Anti-Climactic AWPer
Рет қаралды 825,996
Every esport has that one, flashy role whose residents are rockstars. Mechanical maestros whose sole responsibility is to ship out savoury beatdowns.
And, lord knows, in Counter-Strike, it’s the AWPers.
From the flicks to the filthy nonos, there’s no denying that those who’ve been entrusted with the Mighty Green are the showstoppers of CS. Living, breathing highlight reels who’ll stop at nothing to churn out the most ludicrous clips imaginable.
Well, I mean all of them . . . save one.
Today, we’re here to pay our begrudging respects to - Dzhami ‘Jame’ Ali, the enigmatic AWPer who’s managed to cement himself as world-class not by taking fights but by avoiding them time and time again.
Despite being a more than capable fragger, Jame’s go-to instinct is never to lunge into battle. It’s to play with such passivity that, at the first sign of failure, he opts to retreat instead of retake. To save instead of slam. To instigate what the community calls . . . ‘Jametime’.

I mean sure that’s possible, but you can’t claim that… it’s just as likely that if he didn’t save and sent it, he gets the kills wins the round, destroys the enemies economy, and they win matches they could have if he just went for it… or if he didn’t save as hard and got some exit picks, they win some matches because the enemies Econ gets messed up having to re buy All are possible, but no one can say it for certain because only one option was taken, and no one can see alternate universes to see what the other outcomes would have been.
