Counter-Strike's Chosen One: The Story of ZywOo
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лют 2020
- To some, he’s the greatest Counter-Strike player in the world. To others, he’s the savior his region’s been waiting for. And to everyone else, he’s known simply as ZywOo.
So who is this nineteen-year-old phenom, and how did he skyrocket to super stardom in the span of literally one year?
Mathieu ‘ZywOo’ Herbaut is Counter-Strike's "Chosen One" and this is his story.

I’m starting to realize that the secret to success in Esports is to have an older brother who plays the game
or dad
like s1mple
fr every esport legend starting stories are always: so i saw it when my older brother is playing it
Welp, my younger brother will be successful at CS then
aight imma teach my roblox-player-younger-brother how to play csgo
he’s pro
he doesn’t throw
but most importantly
he don’t know
Underrated comment
The timing of this videos release is like when you hold an angle for 30sec and the enemy peeks just as you pull out a nade
LOL yes
100% accurate
lmao so true.
Basically flusha in that G2 game lmaoo
LOLLL
"so.. you play counter-strike for a living, eh?"
"i don't know."
😙
"what's your salary ?"
"no, no, no"
Hahhahaha nice onw
You really have the balls to release that while s1mple is humiliating Astralis in the Katowice semi finals?
lol i posted the same thing 13 sec ago! haha
lol now it just ended, s1mple fucked them with 43 frags(total) and 22 deaths.. and 1-14 lmao
Duuude. I just finish watched it and straight up watch this. What an absolute massacre that game is
Haha 16 5 16 5 ezz 2-0
S1MPGOD
3 years later he is winning his first major in France, the last cs:go major, he is clearly the chosen one
“French CS is in shambles” G2 destroy about 10 teams in a row, “s1mple is falling behind zywoo” s1mple destroys australis with electronic
lol G2 is only 60% french now
lmao always proven wrong
dude astralis
Everyone in the navi squad deserves recognition not just simple and elec and u know it
the video was being made months/weeks ago and it was just uploaded rn
Meanwhile s1mple 2020 literally jesus christ
@Teh Modest Mouse is it really their biggest loss since +Magisk? wow that's insane
@@Leo-jh3kp well their worst bo3 loss.
@@Leo-jh3kp their worst before this was 16-10 against faze, crazy ass stats
Scoped Gaming yes😂 Zywoo is good but s1mple is better, plus NaVi could be the best team right now.
@Mister X THE GREATEST HACKER STILL PLAYS KENNYS. AND HUNTER OBVIOUSLY STOLE NIKO'S AIMBOTS. EPIC HACKER LOBBY FINAL
Good timing making this when S1mple is destroying Astralis
@Joan Regala Osorio game knowledge, been an IGL for years, he isnt one atm but im pretty sure he gives a lot of good and important calls.
@@myh0my I don't follow the scene, but it seems like this might be one of his last moments in the team if he keeps underperforming like that. If he isn't an IGL, giving information and discussing with the IGL mid-game doesn't sound useful for the team.
"Counter-Strike's Chosen One: The Story of ZywOo"
first 7 mins, LIT. only about french cs
Rowojon got em
French scene dominating so they show get_right. Mkay then.
thanks i skipped
ZyWho what?
It's important to put a context in here.
You have to understand that he didn't went pro when the French CS:GO scene was at the top.
He literally put the French scene back at the top of the ladder.
the score esports: zywoo the chosen one
s1mple and navi: destroying astralias
gg. you played yourself
and liquid too
ur mom
to be fair both s1mple and zywoo share the same problem they are both wayy better than their teams
@@s-zz actually on the paper we all know that Zywoo was clearly better than his team but for Simple... Electronic just didn't perform as much as we wanted in 2019 but right now he is trying to take Simple's spot xd. Boom flamie and perfecto are quit overperforming also.
god alle these annyoing simple fans talking trash now lmao
Zywoo: "the chosen one"
Zywoo's older brother: "yes and I'm the one who guided the chosen one"
“No..no” -ZywOo
I'm feeling thank you
7:13 the start of the video
s1mple: hold my katowice trophy
Sanjay Varma that’s a major right?
@@papi-sauce no
just a random educated human has simple won a major?
@@ATS1031 No.But the way he and his team was playing hee had areal chance this year but it got cancelled
Shubham Singh Rawat No it was delayed to Nov 2020 assuming corona won’t be as bad
Perhaps a follow up on this video would be just fitting after he won his first major
born the same day as CSGO and finished as THE MVP and got the last kill !
The chosen one proved !
Literally s1mple just smurf hard on Astralis 2-0
Joan Regala Osorio u call him bad yet u have never and never will play cs as a pro.
-Promise Oh cmon stop it with the bullshit "you aren't pro so stop criticizing" Shox was so bad even braindead Apex played better than him its fucking 2v8 for Vitality
Niko smurfed even harder against astralis recently
@@manuelquiloboy2956 but they were both better than you, you are like so sure that ur gonna beat shox at 1v1 or something.
And? The video is about ZywOo, stop talking about s1mple
zywoo really just got born and thought, "what if I was just built different"
I love these minidocus to bits. Great editing, great quotes, and a great understanding of the cs scene 👌
the ABSOLUTE GALL to release this after S1mple made Astralis look like toddlers fresh to the game.
They mention s1mple still being the greatest player ever in csgo in this very video. If he beats s1mple another year, he'll take that title, if he doesn't, he doesn't.
They probably spent the past 2-3 days making this
Nah zywoo is the. Messiah but simple Is god
Vocal nah, lowkey even last year s1mple was still better than Zywoo, but carrying Guardian in his form and weight was literally impossible for anyone. Even when s1mple was ‘slumping’ he had something like +200 kd over a few tournaments. Zywoo slumps and barely pulls +27 kd at an event where he should be putting out ridiculous numbers, the same event where s1mple and navi are currently in the grand final and are favourites to win. S1mple is just superior to Zywoo no fanboying about it.
Zywoo carries a tier 8 team. S1mple actually has good teammates
Zywoo has a s1mple in each finger. Can't even compare. Kid is only 19 now and already been crowned. And when you look at the games is like not even a doubt.
Who else just watched navi dismantle astralis?
Just finished watching it live and when i got this notification i was laughing so hard bro....These people got the timing so wrong
99% of the comment section is Simple fanboys. I guess this is ez money.
@@jijmotorp3079 lol see his performance then say about fanboying even if you hate him you can't ignore his plays
@@jijmotorp3079 Im a faze fan but i also support everyone that astralis plays against.
@That'sNot WhatIwanted they won. 3-0
Great way of showing what is the french Status quo, and the transition of introducing Zywoo into the scene. It was just perfect
This is getting posted whilst s1mple is literally tearing the world apart. ZywOo is good but s1mple is and always will be the greatest of all time, the chosen one, the undertaker, a monster.
in 2019 zywoo was better tho.
@@dragonplayz6606 Doesn't make him 'the chosen one'. He was better I agree, whats your point?
I don't think anyone who doesn't have a major win can be called the GOAT, regardless of skill.
@@zacharylester2865 But he is the greatest player of all time, he doesn't have the greatest achievements but he is the most skilled and best as a player.
@@zacharylester2865 wait and see, after getting rid of edward and guardian navi has the *team* mindset and power to win a major
It seems that G2 is the better team and that KennyS is making a comeback for French CS
This comment did not age well
I was rooting for Na'Vi anyways 😂
Navi was literally smurfing even against Astralis so don't write off G2 just now.
@@zeeeroo6032 double that
KennyS is benched, a message from the future
The best thing is this man keeps the vibe positive and funny that's what is needed while you play in intense moments
these vids are so well made. thx so much u guys
We can all agree that in the major going on atm simple is definitely the best player in the world
IEM Katowice isn't a major, it's part of the Intel grand slam
Its Not a Major but yes we can
Knowledge 100
the best at being toxic maybe
@@savvazaytsev8861 +1 MARKELOFF>S1MPLE
Loving all the content lately. You guys are doing an amazing job!
I love the level of production in this story of and the amount of Colin in it
Me: dying after the guy says “Two of the best french players to do it”
Everyone else: that timing was amazing navi in the middle of destroying Astralis and you guys post this
I don't care how good he is, ZywOo is precious and must be protected.
I dont remember seeing zywoo in the semi finals of IEM katowice 15 mins ago, but the real no.1 player was there
S1mple fan bois be like
@@BANANAT0R314 zywho fanbois be like
Last time i checked Zywoo was best player of last year and 2020 didnt ended.
Awesome channel. Bringing back the love for the game for me. Please keep it up!
Respect to him and his mother.
His mother for advising he finishes his studies and for him to listen.
You hate it or not, you really admire his cuteness and in game Iq. I would definitely say that Zywoo is way better than simple and at the age of 19. Take a bow. And all the people with simple and Navi destroying Astralis. The thing is consistency which Astralis and Zywoo has more than Navi and S1mple could imagine
Patel Dhrumin this did not age well my friend
@@sikijkarki8975 This did age very well my friend
What a day to publish this video Xd
Sooo happy to see him win the last csgo major, on home turf aswell ❤
ZywOo is my kind of player. Understated, deadly, humble.
all this as simple is absolutely lighting up katowice
Most toxic player goes to s1mple
@@cjr3229 he still toxic that why i hate him
@@rhapsodybizzle6870 hes def not.

your comment didn't aged well either,lmao
zywoo has now better 2020 stats than s1mple,lul
@@raushan4142 and he wins again in bo5 >:o
I had been waiting for this video for so long
respect from Turkey, its always good to watch this kind of incredible talented players,
Why do you make a Story of zywoo. He has No full Story yet. Hes super young. Make storys of some people who actually have a Long story
Flying Baum Yh I agree
Flying Baum
Then they will make a part 2
You don't get it?
*MORE CONTENT*
no story? he just had one of the best years ever after his first year playing against the best teams in the world... only 2018 s1mple tops it.
@@DocYAYAYA yea for me this is Not a complete Story, this is a chapter
Doc s1mple now squashes the zywoo of today,yesterday and tomorrow
Can you please make the story of Rain. One of my favourite CS:GO players.
You happy now
The way zywoo's brain works is interesting for sure the timing and positions is ingraved in his head he knows the timing and spots with those times which is why he would definitely seem suspicious he knows exactly where they could be and checks those spots with that alone he'd be amazing but he's got aim and reactions to back it up you can tell he practiced the correct way for years and years
This is such a good video, the intro look back at French CS is an excellent opening scene. The music choice is perfect.
It really made me emotional when they said "french CS was becoming dead" ... I mean their CS has given us not legendary players but GODS OF CS.
I can probably name a whole list but some of them that comes right up are KennyS, RPK, Shox, Happy,NBK, Scream,now Zywoo. It's just similar to saying that csgo is dead but it's not.
Btw the difference between zywoo and simple is the same difference between Kenny and guardian. One goes and pulls off miracles and magic top frags while other is the most consistent and team players.
Other thing, Zywoo and Simple are both gods considering 2019. Ofcourse, zwyoo was better. But now simple is back. Also, simple always has so high rating that to beat him with 0.01 of a rating is an amazing accomplishment.
Although, I don't know why people take on themselves to fight on their behalf, how dumb are you? Those players are enjoying their peek and you are fighting whose better...my god. It was good when internet was small now we get too see so many dumb people
Also it's really difficult to find humble GODs in France...hahah
But ESL cologne == Making of French gods
so wholesome irl but an actual demon in game
coming back now that ZywOo will have a nutty roster alongside him in 2022!
Great editing, very good flow
ZywOo < simple
don't @ me
BRO ARE YOU WATCHING KATOWICE
ITS SO GOOD
S1mple's is 100 times better than zywoo man
Yes we can all agree that s1mple better
@@acker-2503 I mean they still have the same stats in 2020 lul
This video is legit the definition of you holding a position in CS for a solid 30 seconds, and you want to change your position but a player emerges right at that moment , with Na Vi decimating Astralis in the Katowice 2020
Never have I waited this long for someone to come of age
Finally we have this video
scream is from belgium :D, nice vid btw
Yeah but he played for french team so Scream was in the french cs (like Alex today)
@@erakyushi5952 so you consider smooya german cs?
Eraznox now Alex is considered international technically
And he's his team has fallen off AGAIN
@Joan Regala Osorio its just french CS politics
@Joan Regala Osorio french cs in general and shox is still miles better then Guardian
@@ImaTip than
@@zykkdoto2589 I'm not from a English speaking country sorry
@@ImaTip and so do I. Im not shaming you brother, just correcting.
When I saw his first match I told all my friends this guy was going far.
13:41 was my favorite play such patience and precision!!!
This Happen when you put so much time in making a video and stuff happens in background,. Kenny and G2 is phenomenal right now and Simple just tear apart the Astralis. 😂
*tore
@@BANANAT0R314 no one cares bro
Yeah congrats simpme #2
Why does every single pro have a big brother that got them into the game...
or a dad in Shrod case
I'd love to watch the story of Happy, from two major wins to 2019's nightmare with ldlc
I love your channel's videos.
But, teach your editor how to equalize the volume between clips!
Well. The anime comeback was more of NBK forming the root of Vitality with Zywoo also in the team. (My man NBK gets like 0 credit)
Still waiting for the story of Flusha (GOAT)
I've been waiting for this and prayed that it won't come out at a bad time. Welp.
Is it just me or does Zywoo look like a cool dad that every kid on the neighborhood knows for playing video games?
Man you guys should have waited till after Na'avi v Astralis
They atleast shouldnt have compared him to Simple
@@sivachandan7089 ofc he is way better than s0mple
a g e d
7:26 first time actually hearing him speak properly 😂
Still nervous xD
I think NBK should get an episode, he deserves more attention and love. Thanks.
Happy birthday, my guy
And he is the new major winner
Where is the story of the F0rest the GOAT and DAD?
Love these videos but would it be possible for you team to come up with videos like ESL did for Ropz? That's like watching a freaking documentary and we get to know the players on a personal level.
Simple came back strong this year so it's gonna be a fun year
You know, i thought he was on the level off simpel, but i just saw simpel destroy Astrails; no murdered theme.
Omar El Dawg it’s simple
Well, congrats Zywoo you did it for yourself, and you did it for France ❤
Godly player. Streaky starting off the year but still insane
i love this video, zywoo is really great.
Gabe's son
Funnily enough, G2 look really good atm with the 2 new additions and vitality seems to be on the decline
😔
Stay consistent ❤️❤️
Such short and such smooth ...
S1mple’s play style isn’t just “cocky”, his play style is insanely aggressive, he gets the most out of his skills as the best player in the world.
No 2 twice in a row lots of people who beat simple and zywoo says zywoo is bettet
@@maverickreapor1117 And lots of people say simple is better
@@userunknown3761 thats because simple is more entertaining and has more fans zywoo is silent and kinda introverted less ppl like him but skill wise he's at simple lvl lots of pro tend to agree
@Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin He’s just a quiet person all round. He’s almost too quiet
Simple does the impossible while zywoo plays perfectly
Damn zywoo and simple are literally polar opposites. One is shy and humble whereas the other is cocky and overconfident
such a great video
"I don't know" - ZyWoO, 2019
ZYWHO ?
ZywOo: Name gets known
S1mple: Allow me to introduce myself
7 years of age is really young. Pretty sure it was a 13+ game at release. I thought 12-14 was young. Starting cs at 7 is a massive advantage in terms of understanding the game, mastering its mechanics, and integrating all the dynamics of the game into one's life and mentality.
Man, His mother is so supportive ❤️
Watching IEM Katowice right now. S1mple is the best player in the world. Hands Down.
s1mple in my eyes was always the best, even in 2019, its just that NaVi went through many rough phases once Zeus left in 2019.... so NaVi didn't get many top 2/4 finishes but the fact that s1mple still came #2 shows how good he is...
LMAO kaTOXICe is creative if you made that up. I thought the meme was Coronavice but yours is so much better.
@@dudeisawesome7202 Simple was absolute shit in 2019 and was gifted 2nd place because of his statpaded stats. He won 2 tier tournament and nothing else and he got 2nd place lmao. everyone can get good stats by baiting and awping.
Zywho?
Back to back #1
Sangat berinspirasi.terima kasih zywoO
13:04 Why you blurred Beatway logo
maybe they're not allowed to advertise gambling on this channel
They blocked all gambling sites like egb, betway, etc..
cuz they don't want to support a gambling website to the minors that watch their content.
They don't advertise gambling because of the minors watching their videos and let me tell you, there are a lot of em in the comments.
*chosen for One year
Devs lmao
There's enough time for him to be also 2020 best.
Maybe he'll replace somehow jacks in g2 but it doesn't seems likely rn
@@ye7141 clown. ZywOo was best in 2019 because s1mple didnt have enough spotlight. and even then, s1mple was 2nd.
