+anZoK I agree it was a heat of the moment thing too and he did handle it well. People who hate on fnatic are just jealous. BTW I'm not even a fnatic supporter I'm just not retarded.
+hobbysatanist666 You aren't the same within the game and outside, being cocky and arrogant is just some people's ways of celebrating, its just their personality
During ESL One Cologne, what they actually talked about during those famous time-outs was whatever Victoria's Secret literally is. Loved this Reflections with JW, super humble guy.
If you're reading this, JW, remember that all these insults people are throwing at you is because they are either A) Insecure about themselves so they bash you with their insecurities, B) Their jealous, or even C) They're just the assholes that can't do anything to anyone face to face so they have to bully others on the internet. Remember, these are the kids that talked shit about everyone in high school and then kissed said people's asses when they confront them. Keep your head high dude, and keep reking them.
That game with the boost was actually when I became a Fnatic fan in CS:GO. I was already a Fnatic fan in LoL and I had been watching CS:GO for a bit and I was rooting for Fnatic, then when everybody was hating them so much I thought ok now I'll cheer for them even more :). GO FNATIC !!! :)
I had never known that despite that boost fnatic did being illegal, similar boosts had been occurring throughout the tournament. It really changed my opinion about "boostmeister."
You should do a reflections with Dennis. He always seems like he is just trying to have a good time during tournaments. Like he's always smiling and just looks genuinely happy with where he is
Its awesome that they kept playing and dominating instead of letting all the hate get to them. The fact they constantly show that they are one of the greatest teams ever is a ten times better way of shutting up haters than getting angry and acting immature. Mad respect
Nobody told me about alphadraft in he begining of the video :( How am I suppose to know where to generate some mad skrilla!? Edit: nvm JW did at the end, phew!
This guy is 100 times more likable than the rest of Fnatic combined. Always calm, and by far the most interesting player on Fnatic's team, having a very unique style of play.
JW is a class act now. He has learned from his mistakes (ie: the handshake 3 years ago, for which he has apologized and admitted his wrongs). He has grown into a humble and chill guy, and I have a lot of respect for him. I really wish people would stop giving him so much shit for nothing.
+Dat_Felix It was illegal due to rules of the tournament in place. Do a research before posting ignorant comment. Also , the boost itself was dodgy as it wasn't intended to be possible.
+Negativitie Actually.. The rules was from Dreamhack Summer and the tournament was Dreamhack Winter. They were supposed to replay the map but because of the hate they recieved they just left the tournament feeling like shit when it wasn't even their fault.
+Negativitie kk I understand its kinda illegal but wtf man if the boost shouldn't be possible why was it possible back than? They were actually *just* playing the map...
+Dat_Felix yeah man, why should cheats be illegal, if they are possible in the game? It's not the fault of the players, but the fault of the developers! Why should Rape be illegal if it is possible in this world? It is not the fault of the rapists, but the fault of the government...
I am not saying it (the boost) was either against the rules or not, but at the moment I saw it, I knew it would be remembered as one of the best plays/moments in CS:GO history.
Dear Thooorin. The content you keep making is just fantastic and something I'm always looking forward to. Especially these long Reflections series that you make. But I have one minus point for you. How on earth am I suppose to watch this when I'm eating chips and can't hear shit. If you could make subtitles for these 1h+ videos I would appreciate it :--)
Thooorin has that point about trying to argue tactics for cs. Csgo has tactics remind me a lot like high level basketball. In the most successful NBA coaches don't micromanage plays, the players play intuitively off of a set game plan and philosophy. It's not like tactics in USA football where there's coaches basically moving chess pieces. It's more intuitive, but there's a core philosophy behind it.
I think in this interview JW redeems himself in a lot of ways and creates a positive picture from himself. That said, I didnt like that Thorin didnt ask the question about the denied handshake and the era of unspotsmanship that JW and his team at the time had.
You should rename this one to something other than the first. Someone scrolling through the playlist of Reflections interviews might skip this one thinking it's the first one, without knowing that there is 2.
Enjoyed this quite a bit. However I think if Thorin followed up the answers a bit more, maybe not all of the players answers but some more of them would be awesome instead of just asking another question. My thoughts anyway, 100% ok with how it is though!
Really cool & humble guy, doesn't deserve all the hate & bullying.
Keep fighting! Also, people, grow up ffs
How do i pronounce your name, Pit or pait?
+Cryptic CS:GO (Dmitri) pithh
100% agreed pyth btw lve u
+Cryptic CS:GO (Dmitri) it comes from the swedish pronounciation of "pythagoras sats", it's Pyt, not pyth as in python.
+Cryptic CS:GO (Dmitri) where tf did u get "pait" from lol
Fuck yes! An updated one :D
So sad that Fnatic gets so much hate...
+[Deerv] - Random Videos JW cheated : /
+chedca evidence?
+chedca
Go ahead and watch the old reflections with jw from last year from 0:15 - 02:23
where he discusses that cheating accusation video.
+chedca no he didnt
Stop hating on him.There is no reason,he is a cool and friendly guy.
+Stinkwood but JW publicly replied and has been way more humble since
but what will i do now when i get bored of scratching my neckbeard and watching 15 fps flusha gifs?
+Sladecs kek
+anZoK I agree it was a heat of the moment thing too and he did handle it well. People who hate on fnatic are just jealous. BTW I'm not even a fnatic supporter I'm just not retarded.
+anZoK but he has no neck
Taz once again praised as a good guy. Literally impossible to hate him.
but while playing he can be just as dickish than JW so I dont really see why he is so loved.
I love Taz, hes so nice to everyone
+hobbysatanist666
You aren't the same within the game and outside, being cocky and arrogant is just some people's ways of celebrating, its just their personality
Pancho I know and JW is a great guy as you can see. But this just makes the whole hate around him seem so useless
hobbysatanist666
It's because people are insecure so they insult JW's insecurites (Calling him a pig), or they're just stupid
During ESL One Cologne, what they actually talked about during those famous time-outs was whatever Victoria's Secret literally is.
Loved this Reflections with JW, super humble guy.
+CatnamedMittens “Michael Bialas” Victoria's Secret is a lingerie shop. Basically sexy stuff for women and clothing.
Craig Lindsay No I mean her literal secret.
+CatnamedMittens “Michael Bialas” i gotchu fam. lmfao
Rand Done ;)

+The Soul both
The Soul Neither. I don't deal with children, go bother someone else. Bye.
It was a statement, not a rant. But whatever floats your boat.

Ryukenshiy Enough to keep responding.

+Abaray Fuck off
lol
+Teh Raider101 damn right
I love JW, the pathetic hate he gets really annoys me.
+kian griffiths JW is good at ignoring the hate. Respect to him for not putting himself down for it. :)
+kian griffiths he only gets hate from vegetarians, muslims and jews. everyone else loves bacon
+777 TooTurnt too true mate, if i was in his shoes i would loose it.
+TilianDOPE CS:GO oink oink oink oink oink
JWalrus is cool
JW and Flusha are my two favorite CS players
There. I said it. They do not deserve the hate they are getting
+Fredrick Höjland They don't, they're both insanly good players as well
I agree:)
+Fredrick Höjland They are just so easy to hate, so many reasons for people to hate, unfortunately for them...
Ravenny How are there so many reasons? Most of them happened back when they were much younger, or are not true at all
+Fredrick Höjland i would rank pronax over flusha probably since i love that strategic evil genius he is :D
Sorry for typing "EAT SH*T JW" in the twitch when allu picked you in mid mirage. I was immature...
+Knight Shaqual LOL bro I'm sorry but he will never forgive you...
lmao I'm crying
"90% of the time he is always right" - JW, 2016
That game with the boost was actually when I became a Fnatic fan in CS:GO. I was already a Fnatic fan in LoL and I had been watching CS:GO for a bit and I was rooting for Fnatic, then when everybody was hating them so much I thought ok now I'll cheer for them even more :). GO FNATIC !!! :)
+lukaszepesi Same for me. It was the first pro match I ever watched, and I was hooked ever since. Fnatic and Virtus pro are my fav teams.
I feel like this guy definitely grew up during his career. He deserves to be where he is now for sure!
JW is such a humble player, really enjoying to hear this thoughts in topics about other teams in an interview
Interesting stuff! Thanks to both Thorin and JW for this contentious interview. Also, props to JW for the harsh self-criticism at the 53 minute mark.
I had never known that despite that boost fnatic did being illegal, similar boosts had been occurring throughout the tournament.
It really changed my opinion about "boostmeister."
+Yamin Alam in a positive or negative way?
+Yamin Alam In the same game illegal boosts were done by the other team. Look up Thorin's video on it.
thanks to jesper and Duncan. love watching / listening. always do
Huge respect for JW, such an awesome guy - thanks for making this video Thorin!
You should do a reflections with Dennis. He always seems like he is just trying to have a good time during tournaments. Like he's always smiling and just looks genuinely happy with where he is
Thorin, again grate interview. JW is such a good player its unreal. Love his style of play.
Been waiting on this forever! Loved seeing JW again.
Its awesome that they kept playing and dominating instead of letting all the hate get to them. The fact they constantly show that they are one of the greatest teams ever is a ten times better way of shutting up haters than getting angry and acting immature. Mad respect
2 non top 4 finishes in 2 years, thx for taking your time to shed some light on a few important questions JW!
As well, really good interview. Really interesting to hear JW's answers, has to go down as one of my favorite reflection videos!
Really happy to see another reflections with JW
Thanks for this Thorin, I often wonder how things are like in fnatic or other top teams so it's nice to see these in depth questions.
Was like wait hasnt he already uploaded this? Thoorin blows my mind without trying
Good on you JW. Living the dream.
This is going to be a good night , dm and reflections.
Thank you for the timeline in the description.
Good Effort Thorin thanks for another great vid
and another one, you smart
You loyal
You loiyal.
WOWOWOWOWO WHAT AN INTERVIEW

just wow
gotta show jw some love, fantastic episode aswell.
I like listening to JW he is very humble and I like his perspective on the game
Great one, Thx Thoorin and JW
Nobody told me about alphadraft in he begining of the video :( How am I suppose to know where to generate some mad skrilla!?
Edit: nvm JW did at the end, phew!
another JW episode? HYPE :D
Hell yeah boys jw best
+Acer1337 JW best
+Acer1337 happy good but not best. skadoodle best ;)
+MikadiN fite me m8, ill reck ye
Guardian best
bebun those were references to nametags on happy's and jw' awps lol, we know that guardian is the best
This guy is 100 times more likable than the rest of Fnatic combined. Always calm, and by far the most interesting player on Fnatic's team, having a very unique style of play.
Love Thooorins videos. I can literally just DM and chill
Sick hair cut j-dubs 8)
+Tytus Hamilton SHUT UP
+xevo7xplay he said nothing wrong
this guy is a bully
this guy smells of ONIONS
Doobie Woobie maybe?
jw such a nice guy feel sorry for all the shit he's being through
Literally just ran to the shop to buy 4 beers and some Pringles.. come back and this is what I see, perfect.
Buy 10beers so u dont have to go next time... Or drink them all...
Lots of respect to VP for supporting them.
Great interveiw Thorin! :) Cheers :D
JW is a class act now. He has learned from his mistakes (ie: the handshake 3 years ago, for which he has apologized and admitted his wrongs). He has grown into a humble and chill guy, and I have a lot of respect for him. I really wish people would stop giving him so much shit for nothing.
Great reflections! JW is a boss
Gl in 2016 Jw :D hope you have a great year
JW is such a good guy and hes so fucking chill. he doesnt deserve the hate he gets.
Great interview. Alot of new insights to the new Meta and how fnatic has handled it.
Bra jobbat, JW! F*** the haters!
Why should a 'boost' be illegal if its possible on the map.... that's not the fault of the players but of the map creators... Fuck the hate!
Yea man I totally agree!
+Dat_Felix It was illegal due to rules of the tournament in place. Do a research before posting ignorant comment. Also , the boost itself was dodgy as it wasn't intended to be possible.
+Negativitie Actually.. The rules was from Dreamhack Summer and the tournament was Dreamhack Winter. They were supposed to replay the map but because of the hate they recieved they just left the tournament feeling like shit when it wasn't even their fault.
+Negativitie kk I understand its kinda illegal but wtf man if the boost shouldn't be possible why was it possible back than? They were actually *just* playing the map...
+Dat_Felix yeah man, why should cheats be illegal, if they are possible in the game? It's not the fault of the players, but the fault of the developers!
Why should Rape be illegal if it is possible in this world? It is not the fault of the rapists, but the fault of the government...
I am not saying it (the boost) was either against the rules or not, but at the moment I saw it, I knew it would be remembered as one of the best plays/moments in CS:GO history.
Respect for who watched whole Interview:D
Tyi
JW seems like a really cool guy, I like him
Dear Thooorin. The content you keep making is just fantastic and something I'm always looking forward to. Especially these long Reflections series that you make. But I have one minus point for you. How on earth am I suppose to watch this when I'm eating chips and can't hear shit. If you could make subtitles for these 1h+ videos I would appreciate it :--)
Nice swedish there at the end Thorin, jag applåderar dig!
great interview again Thoorin.

i actually watched the nadestack vs fetish and remember that moment thanks for bringing back memories
jw seems like a really cool and humble guy, sad to see all the 13 year olds' talking so much shit about him. Awsome guy, awsome awper. ^_^
JW hypnotized me to like this video
Professionals staying professional, perfect words, classy man
JW IS MY FAVOURITE PLAYER IN THE WORLD
I dont know why but thorin + jw work so well together
OMG this is why I love VP. Those guys really have their heads on straight.
Drew Murray JW plays for Fnatic not VP
do one with sean gares
Reflections with Allu would be amazing
pls do a "Reflections" with Happy
1:18:40
First major of the year, lost to Astralis in quarter-finals
feels bad jw
8:59 JW keeps tilting left, Thorin keeps correcting him to the right. Goes on for like 20-25 secs.
would like to hear from taz or fallen on the next reflections =) Nice interview btw.
I'd like to see a reflections with Ex6TenZ or like shoxie !!
Great episode btw
More than half of a team of 5 members , thanks jw
Thooorin has that point about trying to argue tactics for cs. Csgo has tactics remind me a lot like high level basketball. In the most successful NBA coaches don't micromanage plays, the players play intuitively off of a set game plan and philosophy. It's not like tactics in USA football where there's coaches basically moving chess pieces. It's more intuitive, but there's a core philosophy behind it.
tack så mycket haha what a surprise
i love these two
he seems like a really chill guy
JW is a savage. Keep it up boys!
Fucking loved this video, so good to get some insight from JW. Would be great to see similar vids with other pros.
Holy shit, boostmeister was in 2014! ; _ ;
Time goes by so fast...
Respect JW
It would be cool if you made a video about all the maps, and explain who you thouht where best on it. Just like the question in the video.
That 'Reflections' logo is in fact Refracted. You're welcome ;P
I think in this interview JW redeems himself in a lot of ways and creates a positive picture from himself. That said, I didnt like that Thorin didnt ask the question about the denied handshake and the era of unspotsmanship that JW and his team at the time had.
will you do reflections with seangears?
we love you jw, don't worry man
You should rename this one to something other than the first. Someone scrolling through the playlist of Reflections interviews might skip this one thinking it's the first one, without knowing that there is 2.
Jw is such a legend
do reflections with flusha please
Enjoyed this quite a bit. However I think if Thorin followed up the answers a bit more, maybe not all of the players answers but some more of them would be awesome instead of just asking another question. My thoughts anyway, 100% ok with how it is though!
He opened up a text file confirming is subscription for organner and people "thought" he eas cheating during tgat match? I'm confused.
Can you do one with TQM players?
Is there any cs drama where Semphis's name isn't mentioned?
good luck JW bro
We need a episode with Steel and Dazed ...
JW
Can you do one with NBK or Happy? porke
JW ❤️❤️❤️
you should do a reflection with neo or taz. it would be very interesting in my opinion
Will thooorin do a video on stewie2k joining c9 or nah?
