- Kenny “kennyS” Schrub didn’t have your average ascent to greatness. But the French prodigy, who grew up in the world of Counter-Strike, has become synonymous with the game’s tradition of highlight plays, and even the mighty AWP itself. This is his story.

"the awp is not the best weapon for the 1v1"
KennyS: *hold my croissant*
Alex Martinelli why
@@jimzimmer2048 because yes darlin'
Hold my baguette
@@rolozaf spagette
please , stop with "croissant" , "baguette" ...
Actually it's cool
I'm happy that I grew up saying AWP instead of AWM
Fell that asf im 15 and im raging when i hear AWM
@@3d_g1ft3d6 AVP is worse
Awm is probs the best arctic warfare rifle
I don't know what you're saying because originally it was AWM in cs 1.6
Rahul Singh in 1.5 it was AWP. You young skrubs know nothing about CS
I guess you could say he took the awportunity
hAHahAAHa
one fake laugh for ya
That's just awphul
Stop watching SovietWomble
@@mtnduwu I thought it was pretty awpsome
That joke was awpful.
Imagine being so good at the game that valve tried to nerf you lmao
@@iamguyfawkes1474 No.
@@iamguyfawkes1474 Did you call me a boomer lol? And sure, its your opinion. In my opinion S1mple just blows him out of the water. Their primes compared, their prodigy days compared etc. Kenny has never reached his level.
@@user-hh8kv1xk1t oof rekt
@Cloud The Cloud Lol I wasn't even rekt.. Just cba to think of a comment back as I don't really care that much.
@@user-hh8kv1xk1t you got rekt just deal with it
They call me the Negev magician
They call me the “smokester”
*supressing fire*
Amd they call me the terrorist.
@@patrickstar2603 they call me stupid
le0n@rd0 that's the most relatable thing i have seen all day
valve nerfed the AWP because oh him LMAO
Honestly after all these years, many older players wouldn't mind seeing the AWP have it's movement speed increased again.
@@sulphurous2656 plz say how was the awp before i mean what changed exactly
@@sulphurous2656 Old awp is OP AF. CS source, AWP is king.
SyrM7_ its was a little bit slower than the scout and the scope wasn’t so blurry af
@@zoffdestinygames actually i think uts better now
Idk why but holding awp will be heavy anyway
But u dont think the scope change is a right choice
10:50 KennyS had 31 kills and 6 deaths after clutching round 12, that's insane.
Wtf
196 ADR rofl
"kenny your outnumbered 3 to 1"
kenny: "I like those odds"
Alternatively: "That's unfortunate for them."
Also alternatively: "So what you're saying is that I'm the favorite?"
Shipmaster: They outnumber us 3:1
Kenny: then it is a even fight
@@john-ek9gv even would be 5:1 lmao
kenny be like: hold my spaghetti real quick
So it's a even fight...
When you don't play CSGO but still watch the whole video, how to know when someone makes good content.
Sqackly same
Lol I don’t even play anything related with cs lol
Sqackly same
same
I want to get csgo as I'm fascinated of the game... All because of this video
A video professionally made 🙌... I literally watched over 12 of your videos after this one.
I watched more near 30
Abdulqadir Ajabsha same, the videos are so good
That happened to me when i watched the story of shroud
same
What do you expect it's esports themselves
"I really tried to be strong"
"But i couldn't hold my tears backstage"
Damn that hits differently
I feel u bro
Hits the softest spot.
Lol
yeah
Man this video makes me feel like I am watching a documentary on a news channel lol
Vulturnus X you are
Same here boi

His reaction time is much faster than my eyes could blink.
Done Account even in x0.25 is so fast for eyes
@@ryanmadej6694 Keep in mind that demos are at lower tickrate
@@pilubolaer5886 well most people have a reaction time of 200ms, its not that his reaction time is that much faster than the average person, but rather his muscle memory is in sync with his reaction time in order to pull off stuff that looks inhuman, or he just prefires
@@schizballs Yep. Most players don't have super wild reaction times (usually .175 or lower) but rather incredible game sense, hand-eye coordination, and simply tons of experience. Matters 10000x more than simple reaction times, but some individuals so have wonderfully fast times (Shroud comes to mind since he was somewhere in the .125 or .15 in his prime iirc).
He wouldn't be where he is now if he didn't steal his mom's credit card.
what
Hes talking about cobble cases
What do you mean?
cars the dragon lore he has
@@shiroyasha7324 r/woooosh
One player’s happiness is another player’s tears. I’ve been seeing these videos: GuardiaN losing in that final made me sad and KennyS winning made me happy. It’s such an incredible two way thing. Beautiful and ugly at the same time.
For me...
Its like faze vs c9
6:00 i agree with him saying "whenever i put my crosshair on an enemy player, and clearly shot first,i feel like i should be rewarded with the kill"
I don't have quite the words but I want you to understand how good is your work on this video, really.
Rainbow Dark Thank you very much, happy to hear you enjoyed it :) - Miles
Having met kenny at dreamhack masters Malmö last year, he seemed like a cool and funny guy. But seeing this side of his story and him really shows a different side of him. Well done guys!
kenny wasn"t at the dh winter 2017 lol
Rare Pepe HAHAHHAA
Rare Pepe sorry, dreamhack masters malmo, I messed it up, I’ll edit it

I completely forgot how many teams there used to be

What AWPers say : awp
Hi the thescore esports... idk if you’re gonna read this but I work at the Peruvian airport and we only get 30 minutes a day for WiFi (I know, it’s stupid) but I can truly say that watching this was the best way to spend those 30 minutes... great vid, keep up the good work!
That's very kind of you to say! Thank you so much for watching, we appreciate the support! - Miles
Damn that sux
Wtf... 30 mins sweet jesus
oe enserio solo tienen 30 minutos? :v
Too much drama. So gay
Seeing Kenny cry brang tears to me dude
matt brought*
I almost teared up
matt same bro
Same here
Seeing matt english is bringing tears to me guys.
We're in augist 2019 and Kenny Schrub is still the AWP God
*2021
*2022
*In Mother Russia Weapon Choose You*

*Rush B CykaBlyat!*
Kenny is french
@Elite Noob how is that a woosh?
*In Baguette Francia Map Surrender To You*
This has got to be the best documentary on KennyS and how he alone changed the gameplay of awping. Great Job with the video!
Such good content. You guys should absolutely do more videos on a similar line. I also realize how much compiling and work this took though, so mad respect
69 likes ahahahahahahah
true fans are still waiting for that day when kennys wins another major
Man, at 17:25 you can see he's trying his absolute best to not break down :(
Give that man an award and a hug!
At first i didn't believe that U made this video, it's a crazy good quality content! Wtf this should have much more appreciation! Keep up the great work
thank you for watching! We appreciate your kind words 🙌 😊 - Miles
MrMu2sS Yeah, I seriously thought this was a upload of a documentary on TV
i found another full metal alchemist fan eh?
KennyS to enemy,
“Excuse me, uhh, can I just noscope you from across the map?”
The Information, the video, the clips...everything is just perfect
I remember watching this a month or so ago. A greatly put together video with a very compelling introduction. Good job.
The Best Awper Is Cs History!
+1
nah
Obviously
Baran Demir with no debut about that. It's still amazing to watch him how he plays easily with AWP.
Yep cs history is sure a good awper
Can we just appreciate how well put this video is!
Amazing work!
Love @thescore esport
This video is professionally made..
Btw "AMAZING WORK"
Believe me... Never in my life has any movie or video brought me this much chills as you guys do in your each and everyone of your videos.
JW got screwed over just as much as Kenny after the AWP nerf. JW was infamous for his fast, aggressive style and he hasn't really been the same since.
Nah he found his play faster than kenny, but he still was gutted
not true, yes JW is infamous for exactly that, but he managed to still be like that
The only players who didn’t get rekt by the AWP nerf are Silver 1s, because they couldn’t hit AWP shots regardless
XD
Sml
So good. Got emotional at some parts. Loved it
David that sounds so nerdy
Mango Coconut It might, but that's how i felt
I look at KennyS as one of the only players where the team built around him and still be really successful rather than having a team full of godly people.
He Look like Shroud little brother LMAO!
But more better
@@visionx1095 about as much better as your grammar
@side xd ''more better''?
@side xd it's only "better".
Boi.
@@paulc83 It's "Even Better"
these videos are soooo well made. channel deserves more recognition
Wrecker i
This was amazing. Im so glad i found this "the story of" series. This one almost had me in tears! Im going to watch the rest of em tonight!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :) - Miles
20:20 Hey look at Kenny's hair. He turned super Saiyan Blue !!!!
awesome video ! and for sure KennyS is the best AWPer so far !
Keep with the good work !
I got goosebumps bro. Great work and great story about my favourite awper
Shobhit sharma same
These videos give us the history. This is real love for the game, the skill, the talent, and the future. Please keep this series up. This will bring esports up!
This channel is amazing! Making E-sports felt around the world by showing us the history of these young superstars to understand how they made it to where they are.
Your way of telling and editing these videos is, spectacular.
thank you theScore esports for making videos like these. they are really inspiring for people who love eSports!
20:22 is my favorite eSports caster call of all time, amazing.
you mean anders blume
10:00 you can see the shake and kind of tears in his eyes. Man he went from that to a legend. Respect to him
I'm a simple man, I see Kenny I click
Without knowing it this was a video i subconsciously wanted to see just to hear a full story on my biggest influencer to cs. Great work with the video man, ur hard work is greatly appreciated. I respect what u needed to do and what u did to make this amazing video/biography of the worlds biggest awp super star to have ever played the game, it must have taken a heck load of time to make this. Keep up the good work !
Potato Thank you very much, comments like this make our day. Glad you enjoyed the video! - Miles
theScore esports ay u deserve it 😊
Thank you for this!! A lot of effort must have gone in this, Thanks !!
This video was pretty solid work dude. Liked the story arc and all.. kennyS knifing GuardiaN must be written in the legendarium of CS GO as a battle of gods.
They should make a part 2 where they talk about his glorious moments in mid-2017 and then his, as well as G2's slump in 2018 and their slow return to relevance in 2019 and then their run in IEM Katowice 2020
This video was honestly so well put together. I loved ever bit, props to you🤙
That knife to Guardian tho..
😍
Jayendra Pratap 15:40
Meanwhile '' s1mple '' still chasing his first MAJOR
simple is more then good enough for a major but his team doesnt mesh that well
@@longstew "The Struggle of S1mple, carrying but losing."
@@kyvintalks simples Career in a nutshell. Drop 70 kills still lose
@@vtp349 yeah guardian wasn't picking up frags that much anymore unlike before
S1mple is toxic asf to his teammates he will never win a major if he doesn't get rid of the attitude problem
I found this very emotional
Such a great channel. I'm on a mission to watch every single one of your features. Thank you for putting out quality content.
Thank you for watching, we really appreciate the support! - Miles
Gotta say you guys are producing amazing informative quality content and i would like to thank you for it.
Colonel GBS You're welcome, thank you for watching! - Miles
Gotta love a great story like this. KennyS is a monster. Love watching the man play the AWP like it's an instrument.
this video has so much emotion and its so well made
AWP magician??? YOU MEAN AWP GOD
wow, amazing upload, commentary and clips, good job guys, keep it up !
Sad a legend like kenny is now benched, hope he returns better than ever
Back for a revisit here after watching the recent kennyS video, "When talent isn't enough". Really sad to see the single greatest AWPer to go out like that.
What a great video you made about story of kennys this video made me cry😭
That's quality content right there. I'm glad that I'm subscribed to your channel, keep up the good work. Great quality, music, clips.
I watch this video to get inspirations and every single time I see it, I. get. goosebumps.
I remember back in the day, when I was playing CS and absolutely obsessed with the AWP because of Kenny
3:25 the Awpportunity?
That's what i thought XD
Tensei Kano Best fucking joke i've ever seen
Gg
Stop
Tensei Kano ohhjh snappp
great piece of work :) awesome video
This was an nice video to watch and good editing :]
You made me more and more prouder for kennys....who says gaming is not an emotion...i felt his tears..🙁....but the whole world know him as csgo awp pro..love you kenny❤️❤️
Dude I cried
Solemn Silence shut yo sensitive ass up
Solemn Silence nvm I just cried
Rofl double
Same haha
Double Games ROFL
Thank you youtube for finally suggesting something great!
Amazing video, guys, really top quality content!
Loosing is a bad feeling and a sad thing especially when you're in the finals
And especially when you can’t even spell the word losing.
swaggershatter no the spelling of losing doesn’t make a difference with being sad
North Pole Ballers And comments like these don’t even matter especially when you’re replying to a 2 month old comment
@@swaggershatter2529 10 months later and both your points still make absolutely no sense.
Man I Love this Player...
Best video ever for the best player! Thanks
WOW, this is amazing content!
This guy is literally the example of dedication, the csgo world was literally against him and then made a breakthrough. Congrats
one of the best story so far in the history of cs:go
I don't play CS:GO, I don't follow any of the pro players story nor the tournament. It's just you're the one who create this video, and I like this kind of content that makes me keep on watching this 22 minutes video :)
Thanks for the great video!
Wow you really made this interasting and good. Editing and the voice was so good omg i love you
"Bringing instant ruin to the AWPosition"
I see what you did there...
Damn love this video brings back memory’s from watching the majors. Thanks for this video
Super vidéo ! Well put together, I cried.
nygma me to I cried to
I remember the first Esport I watched was team Envy playing and winning
best Awper in CSGO history, simple, zywoo, guardian, no one else comes even close.
Music from Valiant Hearts was so on point, I got goosebums at that moment
This is one one the greatest stories ive ever heard
Before shroud . Kennys is my highschool idol..
I keep coming back to all these videos because it’s so nostalgic. 😭💀
Kennys is the best 😍✅
My Bruddah dis way to awp
Did is way to pro awp
He sure is
you don't have to type "is".
All you have to say is "KennyS the Best"
Kyle Ferreira not funny
Can you do the history of scream? thanks! Great video btw
ive always wanted csgo and now i want it more. this video was so intense and at the same time it was so good
To be honest this video was way worthy to watch, really appreciating, how perfectly is this video made.
Fantastic editing! Hope to see one with scream, since he has an interesting story too imo.
