He seriously wanted to knife him, that's his 100% similar to his aggressive plays. For an example, suppose he failed at making plays by aggressively peeking, people would criticize him that he shouldn't have done that coz it wasn't SERIOUS enough, however just because the play didnt work, doesn't mean s1mple didn't acrually mean to do it. What i mean to say that him trying to knife nitro wasn't him fucking around, it was the play that he actually wanted to make, but it failed, coz no 100% is actual 100% percent.
simple alredy make a big dmg to nitro but their teammate still unable to kill him. one ak bullet is enough to kill him but they dont. i dont wanna say its not simple fault but his teammate should kill him(bombla even jumping over the box for no reason after planting the bomb).
Well this have a big lvl of wisdom because you can get is like killing them with one taps and you can look at it as getting this thing in there head metaphoricly speaking that mens that you get in there head and play mind games with theme witch can win you the real game
I was taught this over 10 years ago when I was playing CS 1.6 competitively.. I met a CS 1.6 Pro that told me to take every game seriously even when I'm pubbing or doing DM's. That advice did make me a hell of a lot better
@@romanempire4168 I think you know that when you were writing that comment it was stupid but then you told yourself "it's a joke" even though it's a pretty shitty one
Fantastic video. The sports psychology is something that’s just critical to understanding the top tier and going towards how we all learn to get there.

Really well said Thorin! As summary, players need 3 things : 1. Passion for the game 2. Understanding of the game 3. Practicing. The difference between s1mple and many pros is that he is literally trying everything in any kind of match he is. With what he said, he meant that giving 100% in a every match you are playing, you will grow eventually. If you don't then you're probably missing something of the previous 3 i've mentioned. For example there are some really talented players who really putting their efforts but they are not thinking and that makes them inconsistent in comparison!
S1mple did not give us the key of success, he told us what he did and what he does. He told what made him be at a point where he can say that blatantly obvious thing and people think it's just a bland statement.
Maphack what are you talking about? what do you think i meant? ill im saying is theres no 1 quick fix to your game thall take you pro. advice is diff a key to succsess
This was a great video conecting everthing. And i think you are right about it both with simples statement and about the way to a "meaningingfull life".
Thooorin mentioned "Man's Search for Meaning". I highly recommend this book to any fellow viewers struggling through tough times. I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't read that book a year ago.
I remember a saying, I dont exactly remember where from but it goes like this, "You truly havent mastered something unless you can explain it in one sentence, or summarize it in one page."
I read _The Art of War_ when I was very young and thought it was trite and obvious. Then I read it again later and realized it was extremely deep. The book didn't change.
Good video thoorin! A saying that's stuck with me is practice doesn't make perfect. Perfect practice makes perfect. Also a good traditional (as you often do) sports player you can draw comparisons to is Dirk nowitski (however you spell it) of the Dallas Mavericks who constantly gets complimented for practicing how he'd play he doesn't go for crazy shots just practices good forums and in game situations.
I think he's waiting to see if they can be consistent, especially in ZywOo's case. Most people tend to jump into conclusions way too fast, but I think he's more patient in that regard.
The Beatles: All you need is love Thorin: well, not really. You need oxygen, food, and water and plenty of other things. The Beatles: Help! (I need somebody)
The stories about players like coldzera playing seriously in pugs with his friends that were not good describe this perfectly, part of the reason why na had not been largely successful until recently
The era of buttpounder420 has ended. It's possible that in the future he may start a new era, but there can be no denying that this era is over. It's probably Blast who are behind this drop off. Kappa.
Idk I really liked what thorin was explaining... I always knew it n that's why I admire s1mple, N that's true, he is an inspiration...an idol to the players that feel like the didn't get the opportunity to prove themselves n used to make excuses in every scenario
s1mple meant that you have to try and play your best every match no matter what to stay consistent, this I believe is VERY true, but trying to knife a player for no reason in a major was kinda dumb
Clicked coz i was bored watching cs videos, ended up curing my depression, becoming a pro cs player and absolutely ripping my lungs in half from struggling to breath from laughing at "blunt smoking anus destroyer" god damn that caught me off gaurd
People referencing the knife fail: Classic case of "Do as I say, not as I do.", even s1mple's not going to be perfect in his approach of "100% effort 100% of the time."
listening to this while imagining S1mple throwing multiple games by knife attempts (against cold, agains nitro..). Also on one side you say English is barier for him to express himself, but go have a look on endless clips of how he's beliteling his teammates in russian.
What is so weird about that saying. It is 100% true and i can see that alot of people don't play at their max level in any kind of game. I have played cs like 6000hr and i realized this thing at like the last 2000hr and i could see something like 400% increase in my skill in the game and reading abilities. Another example would be that i recently stopped playing CS and started playing R6 Siege, I have something like 50hr in the game and im platinum player. I always try my very best even if we are losing like 15-8 (CS:GO) or it just seems impossible. What is the point in playing competitive games if u don't try your very best and try to learn from ur successes and failures. Peace.
Yes, to some extent, but practising so long and so effectively got him to the level where he knows that his chances are good enough to hit that noscope that he can go for it. The video explains this.
Alternate intro, based not at all on the content of this video but solely on the thumbnail: *yo yo dis DJ Thorin boutta drop that thermonuclear heat, y'heard?! Gotda track of the yurr*
5 minutes in and we are talking about monks, psychadelic trips, and understanding the fundamental questions of human life.
Truly 2 minutes of content for a 20 minutes video.
Nguyen Tri i lost him after 4 minutes. Just rambling xd
I felt like I walked into a Joe Rogan Podcast for a second wtf hahaha
Jacob M'Boi yooo facts
He High
s1mple: "Just be better"
Thorin: "If you've ever taken LSD, you'll truly understand this statement. Brought to you by Buttpound420."
best comment of the year
s1mple: "i practise no scope"
me: sounds like kqly. oh simple you silly boy you are allowed to play by valves grace.
wtf thorin. I wanted to become s1mple, but you cured my deppression into a midlife crisis 5minutes in
4:49 when thoorin goes from esports historian to youtube philosopher
What happened to Buttpounder420
bluntsmokinganusdestroyer took his throne
bluntsmokinganusdestroyer pounded his Butt.
He is kill.
pounded
S1mple: always play seriously
*Proceeds to stab nitro unsuccessfully.
Atleast they still made it to semifinals :P
Always playing 100% seriously isn't saying that you can't get cocky or make dumb decisions
He seriously wanted to knife him, that's his 100% similar to his aggressive plays. For an example, suppose he failed at making plays by aggressively peeking, people would criticize him that he shouldn't have done that coz it wasn't SERIOUS enough, however just because the play didnt work, doesn't mean s1mple didn't acrually mean to do it.

@lucky strike i don't blame u, if u were as smart as s1mple or thorin, u wouldn't still be typing here, but not everyone is genius in this world.
A s1mple improvement tutorial channel would be the boldest channel on youtube.....
Would still watch tho
true savants can't teach. they get too frustrated breaking down the basic elements for us plebs.
“Just point crosshair on head and tap. Easy”
Thorin explains why 4Head comment is actually 5Head wisdom
Even s1mple probably didn't think of it that way he just didn't find somthing else to say in understandable english
Never has an intro been so apt.
Person 1: "how do I get better at CS?"
S1mple: "Just click on the heads lol"
Well this have a big lvl of wisdom because you can get is like killing them with one taps and you can look at it as getting this thing in there head metaphoricly speaking that mens that you get in there head and play mind games with theme witch can win you the real game

@@shak9558 so what?
I have always had this mindset, but i have had a hard time explaining it, this video really did it for me. Absolutely brilliant video Thorin.
Shoutout to our man, Bluntsmokinganusdestry3r
This is much more motivating than motivational videos out there
great video man, these type of content you should make more in regards to in-depth about ways to improve as an esports professional
What simple means is do your best and try to improve with every game.
@thoorin can do your thoughts on C9 csgo roster change? and 3rd
RomanEmpire Because he probably respects autimatic and it would be interesting to hear what he thinks they can achieve

Amazing video bro. I’m fascinated by simple’s winners mentality. Thanks for this info
Thanks for this Thorin, you really opened my eyes to such a basic statement that I wouldn't of ever realised
Well made video, great job
This video deserves a (general) tag not a csgo tag
I love the knowledge Thorin drops , so intuitive in his explanations!
great insights Thorin! Loved it! should go viral :)
Gotta say, this is the best video Thooorin ever done, very interesting and thought provoking.
Fantastic video. The sports psychology is something that’s just critical to understanding the top tier and going towards how we all learn to get there.
Amazing video Thorin
Definitely one of my favorites
Xantares in Russia at the big house ordering hella humus. The Germans waking up and signing for a delivery before brushing. He must be putting in crazy hours
Thorin, this was by far the best video i have seen by you.
Really well said Thorin! As summary, players need 3 things : 1. Passion for the game 2. Understanding of the game 3. Practicing.

At the end when he reads out the supporter names, the name "BluntSmokingAnusDestroyer" made the whole video worth it xD
I love this video Thorin !
S1mple did not give us the key of success, he told us what he did and what he does. He told what made him be at a point where he can say that blatantly obvious thing and people think it's just a bland statement.
so what he should say then in order for you to be satisfied with his "motivational wisdom"?
Siddhant Tiwari there is no key to success and people dont get that
Maphack what are you talking about? what do you think i meant? ill im saying is theres no 1 quick fix to your game thall take you pro. advice is diff a key to succsess
I think giving max effort when everytime.when you do somehing will bring success lol.
Maphack you clearly didnt get what i was saying
This was a great video conecting everthing. And i think you are right about it both with simples statement and about the way to a "meaningingfull life".
Thank you Thorin, I never knew how to express this.
Thooorin mentioned "Man's Search for Meaning". I highly recommend this book to any fellow viewers struggling through tough times. I don't know where I'd be if I hadn't read that book a year ago.
Thorin manages to disect this tiny statement in so much detail
S Tier Vid Thorin. Thank you
This goes well beyond CS. Showing how grown up and intelligent you are, Duncan. Hats off!
Thorin was a philosopher all the time! I knew it.
you must be new here
I found this really interesting, lots of food for thought. Thanks :)

nice connection to the beatles
Best intro ever
why does thorin have a picture of thorin on his shelf? 17:50
I think Thorin is going insane
When is your video on Vitality coming out Thorin? Waiting for IEM Chicago?
I think he's waiting to see if they can be consistent, especially in ZywOo's case. Most people tend to jump into conclusions way too fast, but I think he's more patient in that regard.
His Twitter already explained his view on vitality
It's only been a week and it feels that I haven't seen Thorin's beautiful face in months.
thorin’s thoughts on the psychedelic

I find these videos very insightful. It sort of transcends CSGO.
why does tborin have headphones on

s1mple : "play to your max level everytime"
Also s1mple : *pulls out a knife at match point"
Also s1mple: is a human being
Idk I really liked what thorin was explaining...
I always knew it n that's why I admire s1mple,
N that's true, he is an inspiration...an idol to the players that feel like the didn't get the opportunity to prove themselves n used to make excuses in every scenario
do video on zywoo, you did call him to be one of the next best
Is there really much to say other than that though? Man's a beast, but idk what he would say in a video about him
where is buttpounder420
"How do I win A game?", "Juzt fucking kill zem"
s1mple meant that you have to try and play your best every match no matter what to stay consistent, this I believe is VERY true, but trying to knife a player for no reason in a major was kinda dumb
It wasn't a major...
