How CS:GO's Most Hated Prodigy Became The Smoke Criminal
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 лют 2020
- When you look at Stewie2K’s legendary B-hold, you probably see a feisty little freedom fighter.
A scrappy up-and-comer who, against every odd, became one of five misfits to cement themselves as the unlikeliest champions North American Counter-Strike has ever seen.
You know what I see? A disrespectful little sh*t!

Be honest, how many times have you died pushing smokes trying to pull a Stewie-like play? XD
all the time :(
XD
Haha do you really believe my silver ass could play against stewie :)
This tactic is the perfect example of "I might be an idiot, but iam not stupid." And i died about 10000 trying to pull a Stewie.
theScore esports never. Bcz its not s stewie-like play. More like snax and jw.
He didn't choose the smoke, the smoke chose him.
The apostrophe goes after the N

You bloody Bhaskar. 😆😆
thats what the crackhead said
in mother Russia
“No one expects you to push smoke”
Stewie is a good example of remembering Murphy’s Law

That’s what happens when you make these kinds of rules
Use this in R6, you gonna get smoke (defender) on your ass

It’s easy to realize that Stewie is actually having fun on the game, and that is very good.
Agreed
Stewie took Ghost’s advice in Modern Warfare 2 at Makarov’s Safehouse. “Counter attack through the smoke! Push push push!”
EXACTLY!
Hes literally ghost
@@seankurisu3535 well, now he is..
A.K.A as the "ghost" of CSGO??
What a fucking mission that was, I'm glad they remastered the campaign.
"Stewie2k grew up playing COD on pc"
That explains so much it's not even funny
hahahaha
A reason why I kinda regret asking for a console instead of a pc when I was a kid
I shifted last year and got instantly butt fucked
@@XHG231 same, but I switched in september, and all I gotta say about my performance when I started is oof
honestly console shooter games are just for kids..
@@sasbttrr Not the good old cods tho. Killzone games are alright aswell. But whatever cool kid.
So everyone hated him because he's good at the game..?
*Seem's legit.*
Reminds me of hbox where people got pissed at him because of his play style, and he ended up getting a toxic personality
@@soggyramen6031 crab throw flashbacks
roblox in a nutshell tbh
More of how he plays he just tries dumb shit and since he’s so good it works
@@TheSaltBoiCometh nothing better than trying something dumb and it works ngl
There's a legend that when Stewie was born his mom threw a smoke and Stewie came out spraying.
He was actually born two months late. It took them that long to figure out how to get him to push that choke point.
:0
Be original
Hey thats not a good thing to say men
Underrated comment
-Shows Stewie2k used to play CoD..
-Stewie2k seen trash talking to a back-2-back major winner.
.
*Seems about right*
Riot or Blizzard would have suspended that player from competitive play for this outburst. Valve instead thrive on it because they don't pander to snowflakes.
And now you wonder why CSGO has superior viewership.
@@Clbull118 IDK about riot, but Blizzard wouldn't suspend him unless he trash talked about China.
Clbull118 riot has much more viewership so I don’t know what you are on about
He's won 2 majors?
@@elvis1253 cold won MLG Columbus with Luminosity Gaming and the Major after that in Cologne in year 2016.
2nd team roster to win back 2 back majors.
Edit: He won in Cologne under the banner of SK gaming.
Because I used the song: "Smooth Criminal", and I was like hmmmmm............ Smoke Criminal?
I'm feeling thank you
ps. WE HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWT!
SuperstituM love your vids keep it up
Yup all credits to you xd
PogU
Make how navi plays csgo
When you meme a player so hard the title sticks.
I don't follow e-sports, but I'm getting the feeling that this is him just getting hated on for winning in a different way
Cause he does dumb things but those dumb things are so unexpected they actually work
minecraftian 1045 then are they really dumb?
Tommy Landmark not really but he is like a silver but good he is so unexpected
Just like math teachers.
@@Nikolai-ve1gt however that silver is in PL
he's not playing stupid, he knows how to push through the smoke. usually if you push through the smoke you have disadvantage, player on the other side sees you way before you can see them. but stewie pushes from side or jumps through (followed by a mid-air HS) to make it less advantageous for him. also he has element of surprise.
They just dont expect you to push so...
Conventional players: Ima smoke this chokepoint to slow them down
Stewie2k: It's free real estate!
People talk about how stewie pioneered a style of play abusing smokes, but there's also the flip side. He forced teams to learn to be careful how they put down their smokes and how they treat them. A smoke covering most of an opening isnt going to cut it anymore. It has to be pinpoint perfect or else it will get abused
gokucrazy22 I agree with you in some ways but one thing I don’t agree is that the flip side you mentioned wasn’t really a thing back in cs 1.5 1.6 or even source , smoke was really something all players including pro players considered as a ‘wall’ so stewie is really the one who sets up this new mindset of all cs go players that smoke grenade has to be treated seriously. The way he plays with smoke is just like host mentioned reckless silver 1 style but it works and wins games . Now when players play high Elo ranked games they name smoke rush strat ‘stewie’ so teammates know what they’ll do with their flash and smoke to execute the strategy.so he really is someone who changed the cs go or I’d say CS in general
HEY!
This host has trouble swearing, he gets scared of the word before he says it
This guy is too cringe man he swears too much to look cool
@@dharshdanube6911 It's not about the frequency it's about the way he says it. If he just says it normally like a normal person it would be fine but everytime he swears he has to put emphasis on the word for no reason. He talks like those people who put random uppercase words in their comments for no reason.
Cancer Police That’s EXACTLY what I thought.
J 😂
@@bizon5174 yeah bro, like WHY does people put random uppercased words in their comments
10:35 So we just gonna ignore the fact that this man named his gun Asuna Yuuki ?

@@mileshackett4781 XD
Ahaha the silver1
it looks like a joke that went over most peoples head.
Where is colin rn?
"HEY COLD HOW MAD ARE YOU RIGHT NOW?" literally stands up with tinder on his shirt
8:40 how can you not laugh a professional player yelling to the other side of the stage to ask how mad someone is PURE GOLD
Quite embarassing if you ask me. Reminds me of COD "pro" matches where they yell at each other constantly like apes.
I was on his side wondering why people didn't like him until that. That kind of stunt is just disrespectful showboating. Immediately turns me off of liking a person. People like that wouldn't know competitive sportsmanship if it hit them int their face.
To some extent I miss that about esports. The fighting game community is more set up for trash talk since people play 1v1 instead of having a whole team that has to act a specific way. With team based games, sponsored teams with orgs attached seem to have stricter requirements or at least have gotten much more "professional" over the years. I don't mind that for the most part, but I do wish there were more players with some bite, some taunting, mind games to mess with opponents, or just the perfect type of charisma to talk mad shit with a smile, only for it to then be very satisfying watching them get dumpstered by your favorite player/team.
Basically "the story of Stewie2k" but shorter?
when you are running out of content
Yeah pretty much
Jumping Tigger they really really are it’s so dumb
So many story of id like to see
More like part 2
Everybody loved to hate him...
He actually triggered the whole pro cs community with his screw it attitude
Fr but I knew from the start this kid was insane. I too picked up cs the same time stew started gaining traction and hate. When I saw the way he played I was like “this kid is going places he plays so different”

The host? because its all a joke. if you mean stewie then nah hes just havin fun.
" hey cold how mad are you right now?" That shit cracked me up
The fact that he was hated back then for making stupid plays to becoming the first NA team to win the major and win the grand slam shows that no matter the hate or backlash you get from the media, use that to motivate yourself and thats what Stew did.

I love the narrator. He brings emotion to every lines he says like "and MAN.. did it piss people off." The facial expressions are on point as well
Literally every COD player knows. You always go through smoke.
5:04 He looks like a freakin' Dolphin in those smokes
THAT'S THE TICKET
THESCOREESPORTS IS BACK BABY
8:42 I can’t stop rewatching this 😂 “I’m so happy.”
"He only knows how to get kills"
Me: Isn't that what you just do in the game most of the time?
In the game u dont just go for kills. Instead you prioritize on winning and to win theres different strategies, pop flashes, smokes and also roles in the game. The kills are to stop such awpers wich are annoying at times when being good and rushers, supports, etc.
The game is about winning not frags
@@tempname7134 hes the fragger...and his other teammates can focus on other ways of winning. Its good to have different type of players that are good at other things.
@@tempname7134 yeah, but Stewie2k is a entryfragger, he supposed to get info and kills, THEN the support player use the smoke and flash to support the entry.
So no one is gonna talk about how NAVI just disintegrated astralis and G2 and won
14-1
We are on Reddit
Yo I am a g2 fan but omg Navi was so strong
Man i think they're unstoppable in this moment
@@reyvenlegaspi6565 People felt the same about Astralis and Liquid, even about evil geniuses. But yeah, about time Navi got some significant wins.
3:09 when you see this dudes trim
To avoid Stewie in a smoke.
1. All 5 members buy a Negev
2. Spray through the smoke.
“HEY COLD HOW MAD ARE YOU RIGHT NOW” this man is definitely a cod player
Everyone that goes toxic be making a come back that’s why I love these videos lol

Was my first time ever watching pro Cs and everything's been anticlimactic since
Same lol we need to nerf astralis
@@RogueDemon1199 Navi destroyed them
@@RogueDemon1199 nah watching astralis is a treat if you keep yourself neutral. its so facinating how they dismantle teams, now navi has taken them down and im really excited for this major, because faze and liquid had a really good maatch up againts navi.

Yeah, i also played against a silver called OLOFMEISTER
whoever is writing this scripts should be fired for being extremely cringy and unoriginal
definitely seeing less complaints on the comment section compared to last time so, progress?
@@noteblockcvl2260 not rly
Loving your commentary, great vids.also yea ,Stewie is just very creative and extraordinarily talented.
I’ve always loved smoke grenades in any shooter. There’s so much room for creativity with them
When someone throw a smoke, there are 2 OBVIOUS possibilities.
1- this person WILL push
2- this person DON'T WILL push
but, like i said, two OBVIOUS possibilities. The amount of strategy that this little eye blockers can offer and their impact is insane.
You can bait a rush (using the footstep sounds to a teammate get a freekill).
You can thow the smoke and spray if you have the intel.
You can even throw the smoke kinda high to it be like a "bird", so the enemy will look in a fraction of time and you can kill him.
I think it have even more things, that just happen cuz one thing. IT BLOCKS VISION.
It's really important to never ignore a smoke, cuz* someone can pop out of it sometimes, and it can win the entire round.
trailer park boys reference gets my like, you cheeky canadians
Hate him or not, can’t deny he has talent and confidence
he is garbage
Sentinel maybe but still won a major, so
10:37 “Asuna Yuuki” the SAO references man
Honestly this whole smoke thing is really cool. The guy is like the ripper, if you get near his smoke he's coming for you and there's nothing you can do he's a ninja. Also at least he makes the matches more fun to watch.
Ya know, I charge through smokes also... except I'm in Silver II
loving this new series
8:41 my favorite bit because when it switches to "cold" he its does tts and says *IM SO HAPPI :)*
I love going through smoke as well. But you dont even have to go through, sometimes you can just use an opponents smoke to your advantage when they leave a tiny gap to aim through.
The "CRISP CLEAN LOCK BOIS" dude makes me wanna swallow glass and shit it out and then eat it again after.
He must be a troll right?idk how that idiot has so many subscribers
Literally 80% of the low tier match making players do this. Everybody expects this in match making
NOW they do. Back then they didn’t. If you played cs around this time you would know
@@jamrah8713 Can confirm, I played matchmaking back then. The only smoke regularly pushed was a B Tunns on D2.
That said, while I lacked the prowess, I also gave 0 shits if there was a smoke. If I wanted to be on the other side of it, I'd push it. I got so many cheap ass kills from pushing smokes I climbed to MGE purely off bullshit kills like that. It was spicy. It got even hotter when I'd do it with an awp cos that shit was just straight up disrespectful.
8:18
Normal humans: knife
Narrator: second pistol
Love these random names for stewie lmfao "stewart 2 thousand" " stew" lmao
Watching this makes me miss Dazed as a commentator :(
Man, he could say " You don't want the smoke" and it'd intimidate everyone
I do these strats in DMG/LE and they work great, have done since before knowing of him. It’s amazing how easy it is to catch people off guard. If only I had the aim to back it up better
Dimitri is so good, give him a raise! Writing was good too, great job once again
hahaha
I rememeber that Dan M guy. Last video I ever watched was the stewie2k vid of his haha
recycling the same content 5 times. nice one boys
the trailer park boys part literally made me lol. you're doin good things, theScore
That steel cache clip I felt on an emotional level haha this is MM now a days
Stewie is the most entertaining player in CS, he’s got one of those unique play styles that you just can’t successfully imitate
Yo that’s cool but did you know that 15 minutes or more can save u 15% or more on car insurance
I love it when the opponents panic when they see the smokes pop and start shouting "Stewie, stewie" 😆
It made my night when he said hey cold how mad are you right now 😂😂😂
Even though this is 11 months old, Stevie plays unselfishly, he doesn’t give himself the best angle for shots, he goes in and does anything you want, and that’s what I respect about him
Stewie's rise has proved one thing to me: the elite of the CS community really like the smell of their own farts
That Dan M bit was fucking hilarious. Literally laughed out loud. Great content!
Every csgo player get into there minds that a smoke is a mental invisible wall
Not anymore
I'm begining to feel like a smoke god
Rap God

This narrator is awesome and full of personality, hope to see more of him
Some of these techniques were around in the 1.6 days. Smokes weren't as thick, so you couldn't just walk through them, but some of his flashing techniques were pulled right from the 1.6 scene. I love seeing it.
"" He's not random, he's smart af""
he does what a silver thinks in their head when they go through smokes
this video was actually hilarious. thank you
6:55 I've never seen how much words can contradict actions until this very moment.

Underrated? He's on the best na team and almost never has a positive kd nowadays
