The Story of Magisk

- There’s a good chance you didn’t think much of good old Magiskb0Y before he joined Astralis, but your opinion has definitely changed.
This is the story of how a seemingly innocuous player turned a group of talented but historically inconsistent chokers into the greatest CS:GO roster of all time.
This is the Story of Magisk.

Utility Damage.
Also boring but effective cs

Exercariver what does "utility damage" mean?
sonicj Polygon he grenades
I remember back then Stewie2k move to MiBR was so hyped but produced mediocre results
and at the same time Astralis silently signed Magisk to win 2 back to back major
they werent bad with stewie they just needed time and look at them now they probably would want tarik and stewie back
he rages tho but still all over CSGO pro history, he is the best strategist out there.
I mean, they got many 2nd places, falling short at astralis hand
How about stewie to liquid, they dominate almost every tourney now
@@socvirnylestela5878 stewie the best strategist? i love stewie but no. not even close.
magisk looks like he's 16 and 30 at the same time.
You could always say that he is... magisk hehe
Dudeeeeeeee
Sign of the devil
kjaerbye leave Astralis join North - North kick Magikb0y to add kjaerbye - Magikb0y join astralis
Magic
He was the last piece to the puzzle of making Astralis the gods of CS:GO
Astralis was an almost complete Exodia then Magisk came as its right leg. The rest is history.
astralis era is over.
@@emujjj Lmao...tell that after they win the Starladder major
@@sammalla5238 i will, after they lose it
@@emujjj Blastralis era is over* Astralis is back now
The Story of Twistzz “just to show that maple syrup is another form of liquid”
if and only if liquid wins major which irl is never gonna happen
@@Aman_W oooh you are so wrong. Just wait
@@Aman_W just wait
aman walia uuhhhh didn’t liquid just win ESL Cologne? The biggest major of the year?
@@Aman_W so your telling me liquid can win 4 tournaments in a row but not win the major? lmfao
Love your The story of... videos keep doing these
They need to to twistzz.
Astralis was abandoned, Magisk was abandoned. When they where on their lowest point they found each other in the dark. Poetic af
I remember him talking about North benching him and how VP talked to him. This story is similar towards Stewie where his parents were never supportive of his dream in gaming and now look a stewie. He's a major champ and is doing a lot for Liquid right now. These people's struggle in life before being successful and now are successful shows what you can do if you just work hard.
work hard doesn't always pay. Work SMART and EFFICIENT
Not cs:go but another good example is Doublelift who got kicked out by his parents and is now Na champ and MSI finalist
Interesting point, you made there!
To compare Stewie and Mag1sk ... I mean, look what happened to Astralis - and what IS happening with Liquid - after this wild unpredictable almost/at times MADMAN joined their respective roster!
Astralis re-wrote history of CS GO ... Liquid MAY actually write their OWN chapter these days!
@@LordOfTance5x bad example, hard work always pays off.
@@metafelle how old are you?
No doubt that he is the guy that changed Astralis for good!
They work like clockwork. It`s like he was the right gear the machine needed. It`s mind blowing how well they work as a team.
Never clicked so fast on a pop up notification of a YT video. Haven't even started and I already know this will be amazing
so fast you commented twice?
a young man out here bussin 😳
@@zachcattlee6233 na, my Web lagged out so it double posted
“When you hear the word Astralis, what’s the first thing coming in your head?”
Me: *imagines Xyp9x’s Goddamn huge forehead* umm... The coach?
You mean zonic?
Matthew Kea no. I know who is the coach and who is the players. It’s just a joke man chill
[Kazui] Kanz i don’t think he’s being angry dude just chill
[Kazui] Kanz he wasn’t even angry lmao
thats the secret to his clutches
We now need the story xyp9x
Device, Dupreeh and Xyp9x have been together since the source days. I think they're stories are pretty related. You might watch "The story of Device" for that.
He is dupreehs and devices science experiment to create the perfect specimen for csgo
Would also like the story of gla1ve
I still cant find it
@@bloozure4281 is Glaive story out? best IGL in history
y'know, i just watched the story of dev1ce for the 6th time and when magisk first appeared, i was like "hm, i wonder if we'll ever see stories of the other players of Astralis or not" and two hours later this pops up in my notifs
Lol
Kapp
Honestly can't believe how insanely dominant Astralis was from April 2018-Februari 2019.
I didn't start following CS until the summer of 2018, so for me, the number one team winning majors while barely dropping a map was sort of the baseline ("They're the best in the world, why would they lose?"), but now that we have Liquid as number one, the difference is clear.
Liquid wins most events they attend, but it's nowhere near as much of a shutout as what Astralis was pulling off while they were top-dog. Liquid dropping maps to Forze, Hellraisers, having close games against teams like Spirit and MVP PK, it legitimately confused me at first because Astralis had set such a high standard for what it meant to be number one.
Can't see a world where Astralis doesn't retake the number one spot. It might just be my bias brought about by coming into CS and seeing them styling on absolutely everyone, but I can't believe that sort of synergy and skill can disappear in four months time.
aaaaannnddd 3rd major in a row. Good prediction boy.
and Astralis is back back to back to back major if the coronavirus is not there they won again the major few days ago lol
Right now he is the most consistent player in Astralis
You see australis never tk, always in a good mentality and Everyone is poliet and friendly.
I fink thats why they are good cuz they are an actual team not 5 individuals like TL
Team work makes dream work
Ye um they did back in the days and when magisk accidentaly shot dupreeh
Dupreeh killed Xyp9x on one of the rounds of Map 1 of the semis of the Berlin Major against NRG.
I don't agree on that statement on TL. That's nonsense. You're describing 2018 Faze. TL are an actual team, they act like one and their results prove it.
@@CptGqM that was hilarious to me when that happened lol
Say Maaa as a sheep..then shorten it to Ma..then say Risk..but start it with a G(isk)
Ma - gisk
Story of f0rest when? :(
And neo
And *insert 1.6 player here*
@@Free-4554 Get_LefT
ArCTiC he gonna retire soon
@@khaikam1180 Yeah I know :( I'm certain he's gonna retire after that speech at Cologne.
Btw, they already made a video about Get_RiGhT lol
"what about this one" disrespecting glaive and zonic there
He is a good player,i was watching him all these years,he has some fire in him,that explosion,he's good.
Quality content yet again from the theScore esports. These type of videos really help me learn a whole lot about a player's career. Keep up the good work!
"When you hear the word Astralis, what's the first thing to come to your head?"
Me : How do I pronounce xyp9x and magisk
Put it in google translate (In Danish of course)
Not gonna lie, I never did like Magisk and he was far from being my favourite player. But my opinion has changed after this video. He is a great player and seems like a great guy too.
He is nuts
he is the last piece of the exodia puzzle how can you not like the man who changed Astralis hahaha
Why did you never liked him and why did your opinion change?
My favorite player! I’ve always loved the way he play, after joining Astralis.
good, an actual esports person this time
Holy shit the production value on this
Man I remember that eleague knockout game between vp and north. It was cobblestone, tournament life on the line, magisk who was 17/18 at the time IIRC, got close to 30 frags in the first half. But the plow was strong and steady that day. That map seared magisk's name in my mind. Happy to see him get picked up after the north kick. Look where he is now
I remember too
Astralis signing Magisk was like finding the final card of Exodia
Great video as always. First noticed Magisk when he was on Dignitas, became a fan when he was playing for North because he reminded me of GeT_RiGhT whith all his passion and emotion and was absolutly hyped when I heard he would join Astralis.
The era may well be over now... but we can't argue that Astralis 2018-2019 (dev1ce,dupreeh,magisk,glaive and xyp9x) were the greatest team to ever play.
Liquid better.
Fnatic
They are. No team have ever changed the game the way astralis did it
@@pogiigop everyone has different opinions
Magisk has been one of my favorite players since 2016 when he was on dig. Seeing his growth on astralis made me so proud of him, even if they were beating liquid most of the time.
The ending was perfect , gave me goosebumps
these kinda uploads are why I am subbed
From inconsistent in his latter days in North and throughout his Optic stay to 7th in the world in his first year on Astralis. Currently the only player rated above him in Astralis for the last 3 months is Device with dupreeh right behind. It must feel so good to answer the call and excel at this level, especially given the circumstances.
Happy to say I've been supporting Device and the boys since they were Dignitas. They taught me a lot during their journey, determination, passion for what you love and always keep your head up.
I just gotta say I love Astralis... even if they win or lose.. it doesn't matter.. I'll be here supporting them as always. Much love to them and theScore for this video
I love Magisk, such a great player. He's a turret in places like Dust 2 B, Inferno Pit & Trains Sandbags, always getting multi-kills before going down. Sometimes it's a better idea to just go to the other side & trade out kills with Astralis than try to kill him in those spots. At least than he has to come out of those spots for a retake.
I love how in Katowice 2020, Magisk's acne was cleared and he grew a beard. Way to go, Magiskm4n.
Love this series. Plzz more of these videos!!
As expected. Awsome documentary. Keep up the good work guys. ❤️
Wow this is such a feel good story though. All the hard work and sincerity coming together and working out. I love these boys.
when i think of Astralis, thorin comes in my mind.
Yet another great story from this channel... 👍
throwback to Magiskb0Y
Story of pvc when?
I really like how the winners of CS pro league and majors sign the camera lens like soccer players. Showing that CS eSports is the biggest and most well known round the world fps eSport
I really enjoyed that, thank you. 👌
05:17 Gotta love HLTV's forum recent activity
r8 grill mens)))
men)
It's always something about roasting s0mple and liquid, and then something about race for no reason
somehow you guys can make the bad side a part of the package.. no negativity, good job at covering this
Title should be: The Story of Virtus Pro constantly beating and losing to Magisk
Despite his success he remains so humble. Massive respect.
Astralis is not a name Counter-strike will forget for eons.
Man this hit hard, so much love for Magisk!!
Make one story of Neo and forest. They are the OG Cs players. They deserve solo videos.
For those wondering 9:29 is the correct way of pronouncing Magisk
@@Somtric Being a friend of the person in question, i can absolutely guarantee, that is the way to pronounce his name.
A pretty magical journey and story, one could say
Stopped Watching blastproseries for this and it was worth it :).
13:36 You can see Gla1ve bravely displaying his unpopular world believes
Anyone reamber the great days with device the best best in the world who carried these team through the darkest times as a fan of I will never forget him
These videos are beautiful!
There were a lot of players i've seen early on in their CS:GO careers and though "damn that guy is gonna be huge one day". Best example that comes to mind is that rain 1vs5 clutch versus Envy. I mean it's not the fact that he won a 1vs5 clutch, that stuff happens - not often, but it does happen, it's how he won it. Sure Envy was a bit greedy, but as far as rain goes, he played it to perfection. There are also players which i've seen and just got blown away by in terms of aim, players like ropz and twistzz come to mid. Early on we had simple in Hell Raisers, KennyS in Titan, NiKo in mouz, and so on... I for one remember seeing Magisk playing for Optic on train vs someone, and there was no particular "play" or "clutch" it was just the way he moved, his aim, his gamesense, i just thought "damn, that guy is good". So when Astralis picked him up, i was suprised that a lot of people were not only sleeping on that trade, but also praising the tarik + stew, SK trade as well - which we all know how it ended... Most people who have a good eye can spot talent. And i'm always glad when people use that talent and make something of themselves. It's also fun routing for your "underdog" in a sense. I've been waiting for ropz to blow up since he first joined mouz a while back. And now they're a top 4 team, and he has a MVP under his belt.
Another brilliant video. Keep it up guys. Your "The story of....." is the best
The Story of apEX or NBK or RpK ? (3 legends of the french cs)
Not French but I'd love to see the story of SpawN
Since then he has won another major and a #5 place in the HLTV top 20
the heart this kid put in his game is so amazing
Great production 😎🔥
The G is pronounced like the one in the word 'Good', not like 'geez' nad words like that. but you're saying it right
Its basically pronounced ”moggeesk”
this dude underrated af
I can't believe anyone can say the word "Astralis" and not immediately see Magisk in their mind's eye. Everyone on the team is made of solid gold, but he's the secret sauce.
The Story of Canadian would be cool. (From R6S EG)
goddamn every single one of your videos gives me tingles
I remember when everyone was wondering who joins Astralis after Kjaerbye going, almost no one thought about Magisk. Me and a friend safe called Magisk and we were not disappointed he was a great addition to the team.
this video is simply amazing
Magisk to Astralis has to be the single biggest thing I have seen happening to a team. Everyone knows that after he joined, Astralis era started.
I simple man I see good video about good player I click
2:34 when you don't have the deep throating technique fully down
I have waited for this in a long time
I LOVE IT. THANKS FOR MAKING THIS VID. 🙂
I always remember the monk in this movie "Da Vinci Code" when I see idol Magisk.
I freakin love mag1sk. he is my favorite player in all of CS:GO history.
never forget nip 87-0 lan streak
Another great video keep it up :)
Honestly Magisk is in my top 3 of worlds best players. He is ultra consistent and the ONLY reason people talk about Zywoo and S1mple, is because those two have to carry their team more. With Magisk he has 4 starplayers on his team and thus he does not have to carry so hard. CS:GO is not a game of sick 1v3, but more often about teamplay and consistency and for THAT REASON, Magisk is one of the worlds ABSOLUTE best players. And certainly the worlds most underrated player.
Magisk played with zero respect and that's exactly what Astralis needed. They had an idea of CS, that was great, but didn't win games. Magisk joined and changed their outlook. Greatest signing ever. Called it then, I'll call it again, he's a beast.
There was a time where whenever Magisk was spectated, people would spam the BloodTrail emote in the twitch chat. He was dislikable, but what a man he has become.
It's nearly the end of 2020 and they still haven't stopped winning
Gautam Yajaman tho thrilling match with NaVi. They almost lost.
@@amirfilmy Yeah it was nice having a close match. I mean, it's enjoyable to watch Astralis just demolish the competition, but the close matches are the most fun to watch by far
Nice video , I appreciated 💓
I heard of him when he was playing with NaToSaPhiX in that team with lekr0. The man seems to be around really good players, and made it to the pro scene too!
Magisk was definitely a star player before he joined astralis, he was smashing fools in dignitas back in the day.
How's that Story of NBK coming along?
Magisk was really the final piece for this team
The Royal Family of CS.
Finally someone who isn't a twitch streamer
we guys who have an eye for skill always knew Magisk would succed.
Can you guys have a story about Faze Rain?
Magisk is magical in danish and that's basically what he is.
When you see them winning it hurts even more...
