You sound like someone who doesn't even watch CS:GO. Optic, up until this tournament, had pretty mediocre results. They didn't look like a team that could win. It wasn't hating on Optic, it was an opinion based on a lot of poor results.
Funny cause they had actually used that anti system the last time SK won the major at Cologne they didn't make announce it untill before New York and it had everyone freaking out
Kane no but wiping faze on their best map when everyone says their at their prime does. this also isnt the first time they beat this team the scrimed them and won
I have been playing CS for years and also following OpTic for years. h3cz is always right, builds the best teams constantly. I started following OpTic during MW3 and those were incredible times. NaDeSHoT was someone who I looked up to, kind of upsetting seeing him away from the Greenwall but CoD is dead so it doesn't matter. It's just great to see OpTic do so well in an eSport that I love.
Oh Mentari yeah i agree faze isnt that great of a team, just thought it was hilarious that dude said that "theres no way we lose to an NA team, especially optic". Then they got slammed haha. Astralis is easily a top 5 team though
Saw it on twitch, great job Hitch. And we'll always trust you H3CZ, you're the best. Now let's win Halo and then shit on everyone in CoD like we're supposed to.
To all the people in the twitch chat throughout the weekend sarcastically writing "NA LUL" in the chat after every misplay, this was for you. As someone who doesn't watch competitive CS, I had to pop in to watch every map from quarters onward. So proud of them. Way to prove the haters wrong! #GreenWall
Ethan Holden they beat them once tho.. 2 weeks earlyer at dreamhack, they lost to tier 3 eu teams like gambit/kinguin(i believe). they did well at this tourny, but to say that after winning 1 tourny they are better then eu teams is a no go
I LOVE that final shot of the CoD mouse with the confetti scattered about, and the headphones in the backround. Trust the process. We're winning champs this time, and it'll mean even more than it would have last time.
Been chilling back on all the games because of school and i come back to see optic even better then when i stopped watching is honestly just amazing. Hecz knows how to build a team even if it takes him a few years hes smart. Smart and knows his team and thats key for havin a great team like optic tbh
hei no we arent haha. We know our place. Just want some respect for NA and te team in general. Just proving doubters wrong. We understand that our team is a borderline top 10 team but we just want some respect.
Amazing video, really well done by hitch and create. I love the storytelling. My highlight is the strat talk sequences between maps. 40 minutes blown away . Thx guys. Keep it up.
for a sec I thought the beat was by our boy MANIAC BOOMIN but then I saw the after creds and it wasn't. But I feel like maniac should be the official vision background beat producer LIKE IF U AGREE SO HITCH CAN SEE THIS
I honestly never doubted Hector or the CS team. I saw that they had potential so I was on board with it from day one. Im so happy that they won an event this big. Congrats on the win guys.
That Last Shot Gave Me The Chills Can't Wait To See The Halo Team Bring It Home Awesome Edit Davis! Keep It Lit Greeting From Redwood City RIP THE JACKA
My thoughts on this episode: 1) Mixwell is DIRTY with the AWP. 2) Is it just me or does Tarik remind you of Logic? 3) Hitch is amazing with these shots man. Seriously! This is better than TV. 4) Stan's a fkn weirdo lol 5) Faze talkin all that shit and got stomped out. GG lol 6) This is better than TV.
funny thing is, hecz originally went after this Astralis lineup before becoming Astralis. They didn't want to join optic and they lost to optic. That irony
You have to be hella committed to CS to even be "OK". Working on aim, finding out and remembering nades, understanding the flow of rounds and what to do at what time, how to peek, when to peek, where to peek, spray patterns, pre-aims, prefires, timings, etc. If it makes you feel better though the average rank in CS is something like Silver Elite or Gold Nova 1.
So much more thought goes into playing CS then CoD, they legit plan out everything they will do and memorize enemy strats. In CoD we just hope we win our gun fights...
In cod it's mostly respawn and it still does take a bit of strategy to lock down spawns and slay and shit effectively. And snd there is strats but it plays differently than cs and does. Ghosts snd could be compared to cs snd imo
Kane if cod didn't require skill then every team would win an event in a year. It wouldn't be the same two teams at the top every year so yes it does require skill.
Obviously there are strats in cod in SND and in respawn but it's more like they know what to do and when to rotate and just go into the game and then in game they have to make fast decisions with rotating and callouts where CS is all tactical in the rounds and when they throw nades and stuff. They are just different games.
They just have to face the facts that the PS4 is not the console for competitive it's clearly not capable of it. No other esport has to deal with these problems gears 4 tournies run fine
Clint.Beastwood I'm actually wondering, did you watch the video? guess not. go back and watch it again starting at 3:05 since your comprehension is a little iffy.
Yamaha FZ09 the one issue has been resolved, and most people prefer PlayStation anyway. bigger player base, better controller, and a more reliable LAN setup
Ahhh back when Tarik and Rush were OG, now they C9. Love the two players and OpTic to death. Had to come back and watch this amazing vision episode showing Tarik and Rush's first big win. I'm happy that they have had success with C9 but I wish they had that success with OG.
I love how the casters were doubting and hating on optic throughout the whole fucking finals and semi finals 😂
#GreenWall
Battle Bolt That's Thoorin for you 😂
Optic winning was the biggest upset that could've happened. The casters were not wrong in doubting Optic.
they werent hating they were being realistic optic winning was a huge upset.
dude looked like mr. mosby from suite life of zack and cody
You sound like someone who doesn't even watch CS:GO. Optic, up until this tournament, had pretty mediocre results. They didn't look like a team that could win. It wasn't hating on Optic, it was an opinion based on a lot of poor results.
"Who were the ones caught cheating"
"SK Gaming did it before" "Oh haha what a surprise" 16:40
They got a warning for cheating.
Honestly fuck SK they have fell off
Funny cause they had actually used that anti system the last time SK won the major at Cologne they didn't make announce it untill before New York and it had everyone freaking out
FlyingShark that not exactly what was said
jesx365 the cheat theyre talking about in thsi clip is talking
Faze was talking mad shit, haha they spent 800k on a team and Hecz got his team for a steal and they're 4x better
Justin Stewart I mean European teams are going to cost more but costing more doesn't necessarily mean better
Kane no but wiping faze on their best map when everyone says their at their prime does. this also isnt the first time they beat this team the scrimed them and won
They spent 1.4+ million on their team.
+SWERVE GAMING Champs? Homie we're talking about CSGO not cod.
Kane optic is the better team. Faze has only gotten to semis in a tourney not even a final. Also they r ranked higher is the global standings
came back to this just to feel something
I have been playing CS for years and also following OpTic for years. h3cz is always right, builds the best teams constantly. I started following OpTic during MW3 and those were incredible times. NaDeSHoT was someone who I looked up to, kind of upsetting seeing him away from the Greenwall but CoD is dead so it doesn't matter. It's just great to see OpTic do so well in an eSport that I love.
Well I blame the developers, I dont see myself watching IW.
tbh the only team that got built up was the CS team. every other team was just bought
CoD will never die. its making more and more money every year.
ps Nadeshot sucks
***** Nah, it wont die regardless. Its making a killing.
The only team built up was cs?? just from that I can tell that you started watching og around the time they picked up a cs squad
35:55 What is the security guard afraid of?
Hahaha, i didnt even notice that, what the fuck
Winter is coming.
MinnesotaMuggs A black man working at an event with white people and guns... I'd be shitting my pants if I was him to lol.
Rush has gotten so comfortable on camera, he's become my favorite from the CS team
did everyone forget mixwell won the biggest tournament of his career on a black ops 3 mouse?!
Hecz just mentioned this in a podcast like a week ago lmao
Love seeing Faze being so cocky then getting blown out
Oh Mentari yeah i agree faze isnt that great of a team, just thought it was hilarious that dude said that "theres no way we lose to an NA team, especially optic". Then they got slammed haha. Astralis is easily a top 5 team though
Jack DeRoche faze is still a better team than optic
KetoKilvo u wat
KetoKilvo you're wrong, do you even play csgo?
Carlos 15 winning one bo3 where faze was obviously having an off game does not mean you are a better team
Shout out to hitch for always brining us the best quality vision episodes! He's always putting in work
Whats FaZe spelled backwards?
eZ aF
Garrett Riddell 😂😂
HOLY sHITe
Oh wow man this got me crying out loud XD :'D
At first I didn't know how to feel about the CS team but I know now it's one of the best things to ever happen to OpTic
CapShotz now all they have to do is keep the practice. Hecz invisioned this and he knew he could get his CS team up in the ranks
Mateo Fernandez now they're on tv ;) making it big
Saw it on twitch, great job Hitch. And we'll always trust you H3CZ, you're the best.
Now let's win Halo and then shit on everyone in CoD like we're supposed to.
and gears
we already won gears
no need to even mention that :P. They crush every gears team's dreams haha
Drewdactyl gaylo*
Lub Tearts Lol true
To all the people in the twitch chat throughout the weekend sarcastically writing "NA LUL" in the chat after every misplay, this was for you. As someone who doesn't watch competitive CS, I had to pop in to watch every map from quarters onward. So proud of them. Way to prove the haters wrong! #GreenWall
WhosBreezy I don't watch cs much but didn't optic (an NA team) just beat a ton of EU teams?
Ethan Holden they beat them once tho.. 2 weeks earlyer at dreamhack, they lost to tier 3 eu teams like gambit/kinguin(i believe). they did well at this tourny, but to say that after winning 1 tourny they are better then eu teams is a no go
Ethan Holden yeah most of them are considered Tier 3
WhosBreezy Astralis isn't tier 3 bub, and either is Faze.....
Jr Crago that's why I said "most of them" ....
Another amazing Vision! Now we need the CoD team to start performing in Vegas!
Shawn Secrets I won't even care if the Cod team gets slapped all season as long as they win the big one tbh
Choj's Clips trueeeee!
Choj's Clips same but I doubt they'll win champs because they'll go in just wayyy to over confident once again :(
H.Cruzz10 Don't doubt the best cod team ever assembled.
I LOVE that final shot of the CoD mouse with the confetti scattered about, and the headphones in the backround. Trust the process. We're winning champs this time, and it'll mean even more than it would have last time.
55thebassman55 Yeah I hope we win but at the same time IW is such a bad game so I can understand if they hate playing it.
Oh they totally hate playing it. Doesn't mean they won't play well though.
I rarely watch the CS tourneys but since this was actually on live TV I was getting hype watching! So nice to see a win like this.
Been chilling back on all the games because of school and i come back to see optic even better then when i stopped watching is honestly just amazing. Hecz knows how to build a team even if it takes him a few years hes smart. Smart and knows his team and thats key for havin a great team like optic tbh
Everyone who counted optic out is salty af lmao
Kane No one even thought they would've made it past groups after the last LAN.
maybe because optic fans are acting like they are the best team in the world atm which is pretty annoying
hei no we arent haha. We know our place. Just want some respect for NA and te team in general. Just proving doubters wrong. We understand that our team is a borderline top 10 team but we just want some respect.
srlsy tho , ppl dont realise how lucky their run was
THEcrushdrone You cannot get lucky from the start of a tournament to end. They played better than everyone they got so it was well deserved.
Amazing video, really well done by hitch and create. I love the storytelling. My highlight is the strat talk sequences between maps. 40 minutes blown away . Thx guys. Keep it up.
This shits about to be "LIT AF" but gonna have to wait an hour to watch.
From quickscoping to this! Im sooo proud of Optic, what an amazing organisation it have become
Golden days of optic :,(
"Let me hit him with the smug face" GG Boys.. Great edit as usual Hitch!
I want scump and the boys to win cod champs so bad I could imagine hectors reaction !
This aged well lol
Vision is like your average favorite tv series and then when you think you miss you it, it's always there lol
Something so special seeing Hecz so engaged and apart of another esport than cod. Miss optic NA csgo
Yeah I wish optic wasn't just cod
I really like all the BTS. The technical issues lecture, the pick/ban, etc.
WTF is the security guard at 35:58 doing!? xD
he was trying to not get in the shot lol. i remember seeing him on tv
I completely forgot about everything else while watching this.
Awesome edit and so happy for the team!
I was mad hyped to see Optic finally pull out a big win. I never thought they would beat Faze, but I am happy to be wrong in this case.
I think Hex just creates an awesome environment for all of his teams to be in and enjoy what they're doing
Had to rewatch this after what happened today.
Now i'm a little less sad :(
Great music choice, it was so in sync with the shots, loved it
33:41 when Hecs hit him he said "ahhh" lmaoooo
"I know what you want more than you know what you want" What an inspiring phrase said!
Tariks chat checkin this rn
Tarik was an absolute beast all weekend. so proud of these guys and this win was great, plenty more where that came from
Csgo team turning heads, about time too they've been putting in work.
Always so happy to see vision pop up in the sun box and never disappointed. Thanks hitch for a great vid
for a sec I thought the beat was by our boy MANIAC BOOMIN but then I saw the after creds and it wasn't. But I feel like maniac should be the official vision background beat producer LIKE IF U AGREE SO HITCH CAN SEE THIS
This footage is actually so dope, very impressive work from optic overall ggs
🔴The story telling is amazing! 🔥
seeing the the CS team through the past year has truly been amazing. Hard to believe it was even a year ago!
That FaZe CS team was definitely worth 700k xD
Switxhed fuck faze lol
cg money agreed lol
no? It was 700k. Kicking fox wouldn't add to the price?
Best Vision ep so far. Big thanks for the words of wisdom.
35:56 what was that cop doing lol fool looked shifty as hell
LOL
Great episode. Congratulations Optic CS team, well deserved.
mixwell looks like mustache less mario
I fuck in love how you put the upbeat music when their winning. well done hitch, such a cool beat as well
Why is it always lit when Im lit, shit?
SAME
Hitch is so freakin good at this! I love this series so God damn much. Nice work man.
ROFL ALLU 18:35 "IM NOT KIDDINGS" WHAT A FUCKING GOD
GOD ALLU
Man I'm loving the production quality on these Hitch!!!!... keep it up bro!!!
Scump reppin his set, Crips homie?! Haha
nick has a red one so may be a crips vs bloods war in the house lmao
Lol naw they just hypebeasts but still love em lmfao
Scump wants to be Maniac so bad lol
It's a dark blue flag so scump is a sureno get your shit straight
Daniel u fuk u scrap
I honestly never doubted Hector or the CS team. I saw that they had potential so I was on board with it from day one. Im so happy that they won an event this big. Congrats on the win guys.
I didnt know ethan from h3h3 was the cs coach
That Last Shot Gave Me The Chills Can't Wait To See The Halo Team Bring It Home Awesome Edit Davis! Keep It Lit Greeting From Redwood City RIP THE JACKA
My thoughts on this episode:
1) Mixwell is DIRTY with the AWP.
2) Is it just me or does Tarik remind you of Logic?
3) Hitch is amazing with these shots man. Seriously! This is better than TV.
4) Stan's a fkn weirdo lol
5) Faze talkin all that shit and got stomped out. GG lol
6) This is better than TV.
I have been waiting all day for this!!!
The secret to winning is a Black Ops 2 mouse.
Watching this a year later and still was amazing! This was such a fun time in OpTic CSGO!
What is that security guard doing at 35:57?
lol
Keep it up hitch, love vision every week
funny thing is, hecz originally went after this Astralis lineup before becoming Astralis. They didn't want to join optic and they lost to optic. That irony
Ernesto Sanchez and 2 years later they’re undoubtedly the best team in the world. Oof.
Man watching this team since Conquest to seeing where these guys are now is amazing.. the process was actually a cinderella story
I don't think theres a more passionate org owner than Hector
1st time watching csgo in the finals and ive never been sooo hyped for optic! LETS GO BOYS!!!!!! GG
Who was just looking at the bear the entire time
Being a call of duty sniper since 2010, watching the Optic vs Faze rivalry continue to such a big stage is honestly so damn cool
The Call of Duty Black Ops mouse was the key factor
Much love from a 76ers fan. loving this title
360p trophy still looks good
This hyped me up so much bro and I've never really got into cs but man this was fun. Great job on the video guys.
I've been with this CSGO team since Hecz made and when they had Shazam.. Trust the fucking process mannn!!!
that isn't a long time LOL
PaPaCaKeZZ longer than all these bandwagon fans😂 I started with the cod team since bo2 doe
Alex Sanken mw3 :P
Am i a bandwagon fan? I followed OpTic since ghost.
I was screaming when fly got that 3-piece with the pistol . This match was so good ❤️ ELeague champs !
Don't get me wrong I love the cod dudes but I'm not going to force myself to watch IW when I do not enjoy watching it.
Was waiting for this shit. Let's get it hitch. Always come in clutch
Mixwell is legit a top 10 player world right now.
no he isnt, where can he possibly fit in a top 10?
one of the BEST eps of vision!!!! Keep it up guys
Love watchin csgo competitive but I can never play it well.. oh yeah I'm trash
Itz Emerson Same haha
You have to be hella committed to CS to even be "OK". Working on aim, finding out and remembering nades, understanding the flow of rounds and what to do at what time, how to peek, when to peek, where to peek, spray patterns, pre-aims, prefires, timings, etc. If it makes you feel better though the average rank in CS is something like Silver Elite or Gold Nova 1.
Flanders Manhandles yeah it's a really competitive esport that you have to actually practice and improve on if you want to be good
Great episode. The CS team deserved this. The win and the episode. Great job.
Trust The Process
Damnnn episodes coming out real quick :D Keep it up Hitch!
Faze CS is like that one shit talking team in The Sandlot.
So was mine lol just jokes brother, it's a good movie though.
Kraxerax the sandlot is a straight up classic. and faze is exactly like those spiffy uniformed motherfuckers! :D
Haven't watched Vision since the end of S1 and I honestly regret it so much, Hitch is the GOAT for the production of this series
So much more thought goes into playing CS then CoD, they legit plan out everything they will do and memorize enemy strats. In CoD we just hope we win our gun fights...
Almxnd Yeah true and in COD Snd is just timing and luck tbh.
Almxnd there is more to cod then you say but i respect your opinion
In cod it's mostly respawn and it still does take a bit of strategy to lock down spawns and slay and shit effectively. And snd there is strats but it plays differently than cs and does. Ghosts snd could be compared to cs snd imo
Kane if cod didn't require skill then every team would win an event in a year. It wouldn't be the same two teams at the top every year so yes it does require skill.
Obviously there are strats in cod in SND and in respawn but it's more like they know what to do and when to rotate and just go into the game and then in game they have to make fast decisions with rotating and callouts where CS is all tactical in the rounds and when they throw nades and stuff. They are just different games.
IT WAS SO GOOD, Hitch you are the man!
"We put Faze in the dirt!" FUCK all day every day
naf eating his chips was the best part of this video lmao, but nah one of the best vision episodes so far
They just have to face the facts that the PS4 is not the console for competitive it's clearly not capable of it. No other esport has to deal with these problems gears 4 tournies run fine
Clint.Beastwood the one issue was fixed months ago.
Did you watch the video? The Bluetooth issue is not fixed at all lol
Clint.Beastwood yes it is. i absolutely watched the video, and he's talking about issues they had during the last game.
Clint.Beastwood I'm actually wondering, did you watch the video? guess not. go back and watch it again starting at 3:05 since your comprehension is a little iffy.
Clint.Beastwood the Bluetooth issue did get fixed mate, but I do agree that they should go back to Xbox
i just started watching this series a while ago, man ive been missing out lol
optic gow is still the best optic team. dont @ me.
Sunkip @
Sunkip Best with no scene
true...but if cod team win cod champs the cod team will b best...rn its 1 gow 2 halo 3 cod 4 csgo
timoe Didn't they just have an event with the same prize pool as champs 2014? For an esport that just came back; they're doing amazing.
Man i got the chills towards the end man
COD should not have went to playstation in the first place.... it's been nothing but problems in the competitive scene since
Yamaha FZ09 PlayStation payed for month early dlc so Activision decided to do the cwl with competitive cause mlg was signed with Xbox
Chris Price Activision owns MLG. and Sony's contract with Activision includes competitive.
Yamaha FZ09 the one issue has been resolved, and most people prefer PlayStation anyway. bigger player base, better controller, and a more reliable LAN setup
Xbox doesnt even have lan lol.
xbox does have lan...
I have no idea how to play Counter Strike but that was the most hyped I've been for a while.
allu is so funny. Kid are getting triggered saying he's talking shit. lol ever heard of banter?
bot allu
Ryan W GOD Allu has best humor
and now his on optic
Ahhh back when Tarik and Rush were OG, now they C9. Love the two players and OpTic to death. Had to come back and watch this amazing vision episode showing Tarik and Rush's first big win. I'm happy that they have had success with C9 but I wish they had that success with OG.
Yo wheres my league of legends team at hector?
Icensnow no one wants to optic join a cancer esport
So why is OpTic in CoD?
What a great moment, glad to see all that hard work and persistence pay off. Congrats from your pal Hugh Mungus
