Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2018
- Kenny “kennyS” Schrub didn’t have your average ascent to greatness. But the French prodigy, who grew up in the world of Counter-Strike, has become synonymous with the game’s tradition of highlight plays, and even the mighty AWP itself. This is his story.

"the awp is not the best weapon for the 1v1"
KennyS: *hold my croissant*
Alex Martinelli why

Hold my baguette
@@rolozaf spagette
please , stop with "croissant" , "baguette" ...
Actually it's cool
Imagine being so good at the game that valve tried to nerf you lmao
@@iamguyfawkes1474 No.
@@iamguyfawkes1474 Did you call me a boomer lol? And sure, its your opinion. In my opinion S1mple just blows him out of the water. Their primes compared, their prodigy days compared etc. Kenny has never reached his level.
@@user-hh8kv1xk1t oof rekt
@Cloud The Cloud Lol I wasn't even rekt.. Just cba to think of a comment back as I don't really care that much.
@@user-hh8kv1xk1t you got rekt just deal with it
I'm happy that I grew up saying AWP instead of AWM
Fell that asf im 15 and im raging when i hear AWM
@@3d_g1ft3d6 AVP is worse
Awm is probs the best arctic warfare rifle
I don't know what you're saying because originally it was AWM in cs 1.6
Rahul Singh in 1.5 it was AWP. You young skrubs know nothing about CS
I guess you could say he took the awportunity
hAHahAAHa
one fake laugh for ya
That's just awphul
Stop watching SovietWomble
@@mtnduwu I thought it was pretty awpsome
That joke was awpful.
They call me the Negev magician
They call me the “smokester”
*supressing fire*
Amd they call me the terrorist.
@@patrickstar2603 they call me stupid
le0n@rd0 that's the most relatable thing i have seen all day
valve nerfed the AWP because oh him LMAO
Honestly after all these years, many older players wouldn't mind seeing the AWP have it's movement speed increased again.
@@sulphurous2656 plz say how was the awp before i mean what changed exactly
@@sulphurous2656 Old awp is OP AF. CS source, AWP is king.
SyrM7_ its was a little bit slower than the scout and the scope wasn’t so blurry af
@@zoffdestinygames actually i think uts better now
Idk why but holding awp will be heavy anyway
But u dont think the scope change is a right choice
"kenny your outnumbered 3 to 1"
kenny: "I like those odds"
Alternatively: "That's unfortunate for them."
Also alternatively: "So what you're saying is that I'm the favorite?"
Shipmaster: They outnumber us 3:1
Kenny: then it is a even fight
@@john-ek9gv even would be 5:1 lmao
kenny be like: hold my spaghetti real quick
So it's a even fight...
10:50 KennyS had 31 kills and 6 deaths after clutching round 12, that's insane.
Wtf
196 ADR rofl
When you don't play CSGO but still watch the whole video, how to know when someone makes good content.
Sqackly same
Lol I don’t even play anything related with cs lol
Sqackly same
same
I want to get csgo as I'm fascinated of the game... All because of this video
His reaction time is much faster than my eyes could blink.
Done Account even in x0.25 is so fast for eyes
@@ryanmadej6694 Keep in mind that demos are at lower tickrate
@@pilubolaer5886 well most people have a reaction time of 200ms, its not that his reaction time is that much faster than the average person, but rather his muscle memory is in sync with his reaction time in order to pull off stuff that looks inhuman, or he just prefires
@@schizballs Yep. Most players don't have super wild reaction times (usually .175 or lower) but rather incredible game sense, hand-eye coordination, and simply tons of experience. Matters 10000x more than simple reaction times, but some individuals so have wonderfully fast times (Shroud comes to mind since he was somewhere in the .125 or .15 in his prime iirc).
A video professionally made 🙌... I literally watched over 12 of your videos after this one.
I watched more near 30
Abdulqadir Ajabsha same, the videos are so good
That happened to me when i watched the story of shroud
same
What do you expect it's esports themselves
Man this video makes me feel like I am watching a documentary on a news channel lol
Vulturnus X you are
Same here boi

Same
"I really tried to be strong"
"But i couldn't hold my tears backstage"
Damn that hits differently
I feel u bro
Hits the softest spot.

He wouldn't be where he is now if he didn't steal his mom's credit card.

Hes talking about cobble cases
What do you mean?
cars the dragon lore he has
@@shiroyasha7324 r/woooosh
6:00 i agree with him saying "whenever i put my crosshair on an enemy player, and clearly shot first,i feel like i should be rewarded with the kill"
One player’s happiness is another player’s tears. I’ve been seeing these videos: GuardiaN losing in that final made me sad and KennyS winning made me happy. It’s such an incredible two way thing. Beautiful and ugly at the same time.
For me...
Its like faze vs c9
Having met kenny at dreamhack masters Malmö last year, he seemed like a cool and funny guy. But seeing this side of his story and him really shows a different side of him. Well done guys!
kenny wasn"t at the dh winter 2017 lol
Rare Pepe HAHAHHAA
Rare Pepe sorry, dreamhack masters malmo, I messed it up, I’ll edit it
FaZe FalleN Omg why ur names FaZe FalleN? irony smh
Pikkun0va iOS erm... ok, so now people getting judged for a name? Irony smh
I don't have quite the words but I want you to understand how good is your work on this video, really.

What dead players say : aw
What AWPers say : awp
I completely forgot how many teams there used to be
so many dead teams now
Hi the thescore esports... idk if you’re gonna read this but I work at the Peruvian airport and we only get 30 minutes a day for WiFi (I know, it’s stupid) but I can truly say that watching this was the best way to spend those 30 minutes... great vid, keep up the good work!
That's very kind of you to say! Thank you so much for watching, we appreciate the support! - Miles
Damn that sux
Wtf... 30 mins sweet jesus
oe enserio solo tienen 30 minutos? :v
Too much drama. So gay
This has got to be the best documentary on KennyS and how he alone changed the gameplay of awping. Great Job with the video!
JW got screwed over just as much as Kenny after the AWP nerf. JW was infamous for his fast, aggressive style and he hasn't really been the same since.
Nah he found his play faster than kenny, but he still was gutted
not true, yes JW is infamous for exactly that, but he managed to still be like that
The only players who didn’t get rekt by the AWP nerf are Silver 1s, because they couldn’t hit AWP shots regardless
XD

*In Mother Russia Weapon Choose You*

@side xd ''more better''?
@side xd it's only "better".
Boi.
@@paulc83 It's "Even Better"
true fans are still waiting for that day when kennys wins another major
Such good content. You guys should absolutely do more videos on a similar line. I also realize how much compiling and work this took though, so mad respect
69 likes ahahahahahahah
Can we just appreciate how well put this video is!
Amazing work!
We're in augist 2019 and Kenny Schrub is still the AWP God
*2021
*2022
I look at KennyS as one of the only players where the team built around him and still be really successful rather than having a team full of godly people.
The Best Awper Is Cs History!
+1
nah
Obviously
Baran Demir with no debut about that. It's still amazing to watch him how he plays easily with AWP.
Yep cs history is sure a good awper
At first i didn't believe that U made this video, it's a crazy good quality content! Wtf this should have much more appreciation! Keep up the great work
thank you for watching! We appreciate your kind words 🙌 😊 - Miles
MrMu2sS Yeah, I seriously thought this was a upload of a documentary on TV
i found another full metal alchemist fan eh?
Meanwhile '' s1mple '' still chasing his first MAJOR
simple is more then good enough for a major but his team doesnt mesh that well
@@longstew "The Struggle of S1mple, carrying but losing."
@@kyvintalks simples Career in a nutshell. Drop 70 kills still lose
@@vtp349 yeah guardian wasn't picking up frags that much anymore unlike before
S1mple is toxic asf to his teammates he will never win a major if he doesn't get rid of the attitude problem
Man, at 17:25 you can see he's trying his absolute best to not break down :(
Give that man an award and a hug!
These videos give us the history. This is real love for the game, the skill, the talent, and the future. Please keep this series up. This will bring esports up!
So good. Got emotional at some parts. Loved it
David that sounds so nerdy
Mango Coconut It might, but that's how i felt
20:20 Hey look at Kenny's hair. He turned super Saiyan Blue !!!!
I'm a simple man, I see Kenny I click
3:25 the Awpportunity?
That's what i thought XD
Tensei Kano Best fucking joke i've ever seen
Gg
Stop
Tensei Kano ohhjh snappp

Wrecker i
The Information, the video, the clips...everything is just perfect
I found this very emotional
thank you theScore esports for making videos like these. they are really inspiring for people who love eSports!
AWP magician??? YOU MEAN AWP GOD
Believe me... Never in my life has any movie or video brought me this much chills as you guys do in your each and everyone of your videos.
I remember watching this a month or so ago. A greatly put together video with a very compelling introduction. Good job.
This was amazing. Im so glad i found this "the story of" series. This one almost had me in tears! Im going to watch the rest of em tonight!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :) - Miles
I got goosebumps bro. Great work and great story about my favourite awper
Shobhit sharma same
10:00 you can see the shake and kind of tears in his eyes. Man he went from that to a legend. Respect to him
Love @thescore esport
This video is professionally made..
Btw "AMAZING WORK"
Best video ever for the best player! Thanks
20:22 is my favorite eSports caster call of all time, amazing.
you mean anders blume
Loosing is a bad feeling and a sad thing especially when you're in the finals
And especially when you can’t even spell the word losing.
swaggershatter no the spelling of losing doesn’t make a difference with being sad
North Pole Ballers And comments like these don’t even matter especially when you’re replying to a 2 month old comment
@@swaggershatter2529 10 months later and both your points still make absolutely no sense.
best Awper in CSGO history, simple, zywoo, guardian, no one else comes even close.
Dude I cried
Solemn Silence shut yo sensitive ass up
Solemn Silence nvm I just cried
Rofl double
Same haha
Double Games ROFL
That knife to Guardian tho..
😍
Jayendra Pratap 15:40
Before shroud . Kennys is my highschool idol..
Sad a legend like kenny is now benched, hope he returns better than ever
Without knowing it this was a video i subconsciously wanted to see just to hear a full story on my biggest influencer to cs. Great work with the video man, ur hard work is greatly appreciated. I respect what u needed to do and what u did to make this amazing video/biography of the worlds biggest awp super star to have ever played the game, it must have taken a heck load of time to make this. Keep up the good work !
Potato Thank you very much, comments like this make our day. Glad you enjoyed the video! - Miles
theScore esports ay u deserve it 😊
Gotta say you guys are producing amazing informative quality content and i would like to thank you for it.

"Bringing instant ruin to the AWPosition"
I see what you did there...
I love how he's always with apEX
Thank you for this!! A lot of effort must have gone in this, Thanks !!
at 8:54 why does the commentator sound like he's trying to stay quiet so he doesnt wake his mum up lol
Lol
*mom
Grahm_ its different in other countries but its like centre or center, works the same
+Grahm_ mum is also correct
No only mom works
This channel is amazing! Making E-sports felt around the world by showing us the history of these young superstars to understand how they made it to where they are.
They should make a part 2 where they talk about his glorious moments in mid-2017 and then his, as well as G2's slump in 2018 and their slow return to relevance in 2019 and then their run in IEM Katowice 2020
Kennys is the best 😍✅
My Bruddah dis way to awp
Did is way to pro awp
He sure is
you don't have to type "is".
All you have to say is "KennyS the Best"
Kyle Ferreira not funny
WOW, this is amazing content!
Back for a revisit here after watching the recent kennyS video, "When talent isn't enough". Really sad to see the single greatest AWPer to go out like that.
*I am from Cluj-Napoca Romania and now .. i am crying*
great piece of work :) awesome video
Such a great channel. I'm on a mission to watch every single one of your features. Thank you for putting out quality content.
Thank you for watching, we really appreciate the support! - Miles
You made me more and more prouder for kennys....who says gaming is not an emotion...i felt his tears..🙁....but the whole world know him as csgo awp pro..love you kenny❤️❤️
Gotta love a great story like this. KennyS is a monster. Love watching the man play the AWP like it's an instrument.
Music from Valiant Hearts was so on point, I got goosebums at that moment
man i was shaking while watching the video
Anirudha Joshi why ?
Your way of telling and editing these videos is, spectacular.
I remember the first Esport I watched was team Envy playing and winning
This video was honestly so well put together. I loved ever bit, props to you🤙
New video idea for you;

Lmao i thought the same kenny is insane
kennyS played CS at age SIX? If I played CS at age six my parents would have killed me lmao.
Ur mom would have one tap spanked you
@@ironbeagle1610 lmao
And wtf about me i was plAyiNg like when i was 4 fucking years
GOOD
bruh what? i was allowed to play black ops 1 when i was 6 xD but my brother is 5 years older than me so that’s how i played
Wow you really made this interasting and good. Editing and the voice was so good omg i love you
This is one one the greatest stories ive ever heard
I remember back in the day, when I was playing CS and absolutely obsessed with the AWP because of Kenny
This guy motivated a ton of people to use more the awp
What a great video you made about story of kennys this video made me cry😭
That's quality content right there. I'm glad that I'm subscribed to your channel, keep up the good work. Great quality, music, clips.
this is how every squeaker feels when they get an awp kill on their first shot.
awesome video ! and for sure KennyS is the best AWPer so far !
Keep with the good work !
One of the best videos I saw!
Really great work.
Maybe ScreaM next? :')
Thank you youtube for finally suggesting something great!
Amazing video, guys, really top quality content!
Man I Love this Player...
this video has so much emotion and its so well made
wow, amazing upload, commentary and clips, good job guys, keep it up !
Super vidéo ! Well put together, I cried.
nygma me to I cried to
"Every awper I see in like online that tries to replicate that, can't do it."
s1mple: ok
Their playstyles are still different
He's right, no one even s1mple has ever replicated what kenny was doing at this time
@@tizba2287 who's right?
@@tizba2287 S1mple to this day is the only one who had a higher skillpeak than kennys
@@notrevy Nolan is, kennyS aggressiveness AWPing at this time is far away than s1mple's one.
This guy is literally the example of dedication, the csgo world was literally against him and then made a breakthrough. Congrats
