Man. Watching this match live reminded me why I’m a CS fan at heart, even after years of quitting CS for VALORANT. The crowd, the vibes, the freedom to say anything you like. The simplicity of the game itself. Counterstrike just hits different.
@@jonwicktv i solo queue 97% of my matches on faceit. it is fun if you really really love the game. im faceit 8 atm without grinding much, gonna restart my grind towards 10 when im more free in my schedule. friends switched to valo i tried it for a month and i still think cs is better. friends played overwatch, i tried it for couple 2-3 months and same im back to cs again. i dont mind playing alone in cs. its the most fun fps for me

@@zzzzview2560 Ey I love CS and all, but don't disrespect the greatest game ever made in Dota 2. We on the same side brother, but one of us is getting treated better by Valve.
It's so stewie to be the first NA player to win a major trophy in god knows how long and it's his first tourney since that unfortunate EG stint. All I know is this gave me a big reason to watch their games and it was awesome. Such a great story.
Stewie is the first AMERICAN player (as in US citizen) to win a trophy since 4.5 years ago Twistzz (A Canadian)won a lot of trophies during his time with Faze
Zyw0o, m0nesy, Niko, Stewie2k, huNter…….this is so nostalgic, I just hope that in a few years, before a major final of Majors, or in the most important Cs events, we can have a showmatch between legends, there is no other eSport with these feelings, the crowd, the people, the intensity of Top tier level games, not even in League of Legends, you can see in Tarik's face, how he reacts in a real way to the plays, similar to a child opening the Christmas gift that he waited for the entire year, I don't know, but I just saw a man reconnecting with himself, I guess he gets very bored in Valorant.
Grand final on Inferno in America with Stew... Script writers had nostalgia on this one.
And in an OT comeback as well
@@sherzedouble OT no less
@@m8mZ NiKo in the server...
@@Felale just win the major already lmao
@@m8mZON INFERNOOOO
tarik is the typa guy to see a 5v5 retake on pistol and say "alright s0m, they win this retake you go bald"
LMAO I can hear Tarik's voice while reading this
it's always someone else going bald as well when the odds aren't low 😭
"Done"
melt my eyes🔥🔥🔥
nice pfp bro
As someone that went to the event live, i can't express how special this match was.
+1
I think i wouldve cried hahaha
Boston 2018 vibes for sure. A good memory to have bud.
i was in the crowd as well, it was fucking insane
1:12:31 I love that Niko missed the jump and couldn’t help but laugh at himself despite the pressure of a close final map LOL
He didnt miss, the game fucked it up. It was a bug for a long time before they finally fixed that shit.
Tarik definitely reminiscing big time watching these matches
Indeed
Sorry for those that missed IEM Dallas live, amazing event.
Bro I had to go in the restroom in the middle of dinner to watch them win 😭
I was screaming on top of my lungs when they won!
I don't give a shit on my neighbor's noise complaint anymore
The CS crowd is the best...
crowd made it so hype
Way better than any Valorant crowd I’ve heard, and at least both teams get cheers
@@coSocksi agree bruh val crowd is L
aussie crowds are the best.
I was part of the crowd - never seen anything more hype than this !!

Nobody made you quit cs💀 just go play it bruh
@@brownthunder999 Well, you’re right, but all my friends moved to VALORANT so I did too. CS is the better game but it’s not fun without friends.
@@jonwicktvYou can find better friends in CS
You are not the only one here bro, my friends shifted to valo too thats why I had to shift but damn cs just hits different

Just pure luck the random spray pattern rng is with him

Can G2 take Ws for CS2 AND Valorant? That'd be kind of insane ngllll
В валоранте Монеси играет??
@@baldur2.087lmfao
@@baldur2.087 no, but G2 in valorant also get a winstreak and had a big chance to win the series
@svpes😊t1491 big chance? They just lost 0-3 and I think u dumb
man this deserves to be in the main channel.
Valorant wishes they got crowds and atmosphere like this
the crowd went silent every time vitality got a round, wdym "wish" lol
Hey man I'm sure the 12 people watching Valorant matches in the stadiums don't appreciate that comment.
Bruh you're too obsessed with Valorant....get well soon😂

He won’t be able to keep up
@@mcgroom8515 you thought that Abt stew too
@@gyd1714 nope nt tho
@@mcgroom8515 yeah easy to that after He won an event
unc retired
Watching it live and hearing Texas chant "fuck you apex" was cherry
Only a handful of teams will get to experience something like this. This is why you build a CS team because this esport is like no other
to be honest 5-12 on anubis and went on to OT, G2 was on another level.
This crowd be louder than VCT Shanghai lol
No shit lol
CS always has great crowds especially in NA, EU, and AU.
the only loud and packed crowd for valo is champs and when they were in Brazil
@@larry2281 crowd during rio was crazy asf
@@thanatos238if this was in Rio, they would be blasting for 9z so insanely like they did luminosity
36:45 omg that clutch was insane!!!
tarik just looks happier watching CS
Well he was watching his ex teammate he won a major with.
@@AKTrainer907 stew and tarik were teammates and won a major? had no idea

@@lights0030Tim is on NRG, he play cs not valorant
You can tell Tarik enjoy watching CS waymore than any Valorant match
you havent even watched the sentinels watch parties then lol

42:30 bro said WHAT in chat 🤣
I felt like tarik had an nostalgia memory watching this
wow this guy is handsome everyone should definitely follow

God knows how long 😂😂 Twistzz won 2 major tournaments and the intel grand slam with Faze last year
@@jakethomas1279 isn't he won 1 major or am I wrong?
@@hafidzakbar5968you’re right, it’s only one
Stewie is the first AMERICAN player (as in US citizen) to win a trophy since 4.5 years ago
Twistzz (A Canadian)won a lot of trophies during his time with Faze
IEM Dallas is not a Major, unfortunately.
i like the timing when niko fail to jump and then tarik mad 1:12:34 😂🤣😂🤣
even niko was laughing on his cam 😂😂
tarik has a great sense in cs. he still loves cs for sure.
i gave G2 ALL of my energy yesterday. i was bed-ridden sick yesterday.
Craziest esports story in a LONG LONG TIME for sure
59:53 heat seeking nades
This deserves to be on the main channel tbh even if Tarik doesn't main CS anymore
That's just how amazing this series was, absolute cinema
10:36 InsNe round Pog
36:47 damn that was hype, stewie looking hella mechanical with that flick
1:21:24 why did the camera cut off when Monesy is emoting.
Hunter is legit so unbelievably underrated, he legit won them that inferno map
He is really consistent player fosho truly under rated man!
@@Duke-if8ih the amount of clutchness he has in his DNA needs to be studied
CS NA SCENE WAITING FOR A W FOR YEARS. No one better to do it than G-Stew.
'monesy on pistol is the best player in the world', makes sense since monesy on any round is the best player itw
0:23 yes that shit was hella loud
23:11 Spinx almost threw the round. Zywoo had to go massive.
G STEW
He was the by far the worst player :D
@@Mara-xd7bgThey won does it matter? Stewie's role is huge for the team. They're not winning IEM with HooXi.
@@Gazz.z yes it does, crowd cheering for G2 only because he's American, but he sux, this league is not for him.
@@Mara-xd7bg A Major and a GrandSlam champ of course crowd will cheering 😂. Keep hating kid.
@@Gazz.z yes, but when, 10 years ago in csgo? 😂 now he's bad, lucky he has monesy, Niko and hunter in team cuase he got carried hard 😂
I really loved seeing Stew up there. monesy seems like a really nice chill guy, that's my guy feeling. I am super happy they won this.
59:51 bro if you look at the map it's only one guy throwing these nades, insane
FeelsStrongMan watching this live
You can see the excitement in Tarik's eyes and his vibe throughout the series. Guy misses CS vibes
i was there bro shit was gasss i went all 3 days
they need to hold a major in dallas
I believe Blast is in the process of arranging a 2025 major in Austin, potentially. But they are definitely zoning in on NA anyways.
18:04 Yes, the save to win meta.
Maaan one of the best Finals ever
“Sphinx saves and vitality wins the round” kekw i didnt know you could save and clutch at yhe same time w editor for informing me
Best NA crowd, man i miss the boston major
18:14 Spinx saves, Vitallity win the round :) The editor is gigachad, but I finally caught his misstake. Or maybe spinx won round by saveing 😂
tarik i think its time to come back home🏡
anyone remember cloud 9 comeback as well this gave me the same vibes
Editor missed the reaction to monesy no scope kill through smoke from a mile away smh
That winning Monesy flash was INSANE
THE ENERGY THIS TOURNAMENT REALLY MADE ME FEEL HOPE FOR NA CS
yea when it comes to esport, valo cant compare to this im afraid
36:45 still can't believe this clutch... what a fucking beast
i let out a fuck as i clicked
dude i accidentally left youtube running in the background to get pizza, hope you are happy that you have over an hour worth of watchtime
4:16 THAT'S ME :o
DHL MVP is Hooxi's Sister 💀
With overpass out of the map pool can we see Tarik coming back home?
IEM Finals in alt channel D:
Wild this is on the 2nd channel
tarik needs to start co streaming cs more often !!!
nah bro cs is dead
@@manfromthefuture4436 dead but still bigger than val
what good years we got slim shady(eminem) new song and we got stewie back in lan and winning turnament🎉
why is this not on his main channel????????
20:22 whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
32:32 one of the loudest crowd reactions ever
there a new meta smoke that nerfs the B site boost on inferno.
18:07 "Spinx saves, Vitality win the round" G2 won the round tho
Time for Tarik to come back and win another major…
Texas does it different
Tarik u ever think about coming back to cs2?
What fucking timeline are we living in where Stewie is playing for G2 and winning tier 1 events.
Zywoo super whiffed that shot💀💀
Cmon bro we missed tragedy on overpass 😅
imagine g2 winning shanghai as well dayum
"I'm just kidding, CS for life. Cheers!"

nothing comes close to a close CS final... shit was hype
THIS IS MAIN CHANNEL CONTENT
valorant crowd could never
56:32 24 rounds and nexa has 9 kills OMG 😭😭
1:18:40 what
I watch both cs and valorant and by far cs crowds are so much better.
they are doing BO3 in the final? that's criminal
It’s only iem Dallas it’s not that deep of a tourney for a bo5 😂
How am I supposed to even attempt to say when someone asks "How was Dallas"
what a game
Can you say that this camp's game is the prototype of e-sports?
imma cry 😢🎉🎉
Ayo mr editor, you don’t have to mute swears after the first 2 min or whatever
18.05 something wrong
Holy, the crowd here is way better than val. Maybe i should watch cs more
i love the apex translations for us
1:02:30
PagMan CS with Tarik
CS crowd goes hard
Tarik next stand in for some big team ?
