Same. Though I think if they managed to win the major this year, retirement may be on the table. To end a career at a high instead of a low would cement his legacy.
FaZe Clan, it was always about the incredible firepower. Here are always playing or should play the best of the best. This is the very essence of the existence of this organization. And behind the incredible individual skill always follows magic. The first half of 2022 was indeed the most successful in the history of the Cs team. I would like to believe that these times will return. Katowice, Major, Cologne ehhh
@@dadaya5489 the team just fitted eachother so well, twistzz was selfless and gave up his spots and roles to ropz, he in return played to set up ropz and broky in the clutch yet having that x factor in him where he can pull miracle clutches aswell, that trio was something bro, i miss them, and ofc we cant forget about rain being arguably best nuke outside player at the time, and karrigan calling at goat level
The fact that two different faze rosters had two of the greatest season of CS we have and will ever see and both were lead by Karrigan and Rain says something.
One of the most beautiful documentaries I've seen in CS so far. Karrigan has been an idol of mine for so many years, and I can't think of anyone more deserving of success than him. The best IGL, a great leader, and one of the greatest players in esports history ❤ Thank you Karrigan!
Throughout my life i was watching Karrigan's path all the way with him, im 33, and i even dropped a tear. I dont know why, iv never talked to him, never known this guy in person, but its just seeing someone live his dream through all those years, its insane! We love you Karrigan! And i hope you will never quit!
Finn's story is inspirational. I started following professional counter strike regularly after the Boston Major and was captivated by the emotional weight of that loss. No one has gotten back up after being knocked down, to rise to the very top as many times as Finn. Struggle and success are the hallmarks of his career and despite losing these career destroying matches, he has won more hearts than anyone in the game on sheer resilience and faith in himself. Thank you Karrigan, it's not always easy being a Faze fan, but I wouldn't have it any other way. GOAT IGL indeed. #Fazeupbaby Edit: Let's get that major for your brother Finn
Even though he is not leaving just yet, I still am a bit worried we won't be seeing him at the end of the year which makes me kind of very sad as a faze fan, loved watching karrigan constantly pushing and going even with his advanced age for the scene. There is no one else as old and as seasoned as him anymore and his successes will just keep continuing to grow with every tournament he enters.
@@Lite-8 even apex himself looks up to karrigan as an IGL because he had similar roots where he wasn't an IGL at first but became one for any team he joined after envy or something. They are both old but one has been holding that important IGL role for much longer and has inspired countless other up-and-coming IGLs like siuhy.
i love karrigan, the best in game leader on entire planet is amazing, the stories & pains that he had to go through... he still made it... most inspirational person in entire galactic of 5000000000 years of earth.
Can I just say how much I appreciate Karrigan being so open about this all, this is really nice to see this side of my team the journey was tough but this man well earned his Legendary status across CS games. Another massive reason why I LOVE FAZE CLAN.
Bro, you are the best IGL ever! I switched from CoD to CS when FaZe brought you in. You are the reason I am still a FaZe Fan and love to watch every major and tournament. Wish you the absolute best for Shanghai and I feel with you, about loosing your brother. But remember, he will always be with you, like us all!
i play and watch since 2003 internet cafe times, and this is one of the guy i watch the longest. crazy how this scene still has their veteran setting the tone! you dont have that in any other esports besides maybe starcraft broodwar guys came to sc2, and still being active there. many things i knew beforehand, but after watching this fully it really gives it another taste when you see them win together. what you had to go through to get there.
Started following this madlad since he joined Fnatic in 1.6, he's definitely Counter Strike's version of Alex Ferguson, longevity and titles. Brilliant fella, wish him all the best with family tragedy and hope him and boys heal the wounds of Copenhagen and smash Shanghai.
Waking up 5am, opening tv and saw “thank you Karrigan”, gave me goosebumps straightaway. I will be sad if he retires. Seriously. CS will never be the same.
Its wild to see Karrigans body language shift so hard when he talks about the Boston major. Not just in this video, but every video I've seen him talk about it. I think its one of those moments that will always haunt him. He and Rain have both stated that to this day, they have never gone back and rewatched the demos of that match.
Honestly my favorite IGL, i became a Faze fan because of karrigan. thank you for teaching me, thank you for the happiness, thank you for your knowledge, thank you for being you! here's to many more accomplishments!!!!!!!!!
who thought this title was an good idea? THE MATCHES IS ENOUGH WORKOUT FOR OUR HEARTS MR FAZECLAN. This is our week to make sure we are ready for a banger major.
9 years later still the same goat igl i have been watching he has motivated me in many different ways over the years I was 9 back then now i am 18 🤣much love!
I am so happy you didnt leave bro, we all love you Rain and you are the oldest members and I have the most respect to you two but I love Broky, Ropz and Frozen too I wish your team the best for this Major, lets fucking go bro!
there are so many legends who already left counter strike. but to me, karrigan is the most iconic one. as a faze fan i had so many good moments with this dude
Finn, if you read this, I love you. Much love from Australia. You are CS. You are the heart of our scene. I will never not support your journey. Been watching since 2015!
tears, karrigan is the goat. he may not be delivering every game. but hes the goat of leading teams and players, building up theor confidence and obviously. winning trophies with them
me and all the cs fans of Estonia will forever love and appreciate karrigan, thank you so much for all the exciting matches over the years! BEST IGL OF ALL TIME and you can't say otherwise!
I have big hopes that team recover well before major, I gonna watch your all games as always and see you guys winning it, In iem Katowice 2025 i gonna be on arena and im verry happy that i can see you on arena. FaZe up
Wow Karrigan built so many teams and even co-founded Astralis, never saw that coming. Well I would have loved him even without these achievements. He is an enigma.
From one video editor to another, this storyline was beautifully crafted. Every time a FaZe member was introduced it felt cinematic and perfectly timed. I teared up a little when you introduced Frozen and Ropz. God damn I want this team to win the major haha.
i love you guys actualy i cry when watch your games with love i realy love you rain frozen rop karigan broky best team ever on history play with love foucos and dont give up you do this guys get major i lu i beleve u i watch your game with mouz that flash ropz amazing bro i screem on house that rnd you are guys show real cs 2 to world

Rest in Peace, one of the most memorable player ever.
Im new in the CS community since Marche this year and mostly cheer for G2, but already Karrigan has a special place for me! he's awesome.
