The Story of Inferno: Where Counter Strike's Greatest Scores Are Settled
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 жов 2021
- It’s fair to say that Inferno is the most reputed and refined battleground in competitive Counter-Strike. It isn’t the franchise’s most iconic locale; that’s Dust II. But it is the most integral -- and, for better or for worse, indispensable. Why?
Because it’s just, well . . . pure.
Inferno is the definition of honest, high-intensity, hell-in-a-cell Counter-Strike. It’s chaotic, claustrophobic and painstakingly strategic. The fact that the sites are hard to take is only offset by the fact that they’re even harder to retake. Inferno is our fabled franchise’s great equalizer.
It’s also been around forever.
This is the Story of Inferno.

The first comment to comment this remember this is gonna be an iconic comment
@@DufulPlays yeah, I copied from the transcript and forgot to change that
@@DufulPlays bro wtf?
@@williamhoejris I copied the transcript and I wrote "sights" instead of "sites"
Still can't believe people hate this map. For me, it's visually the most beautiful map in Counter Strike and very fun to play on.
Agreed
Nuke is most visually beautiful but inferno for me is second:)
Overpass is my most hated Visual And Gameplay Suck. But inferno? It's Gorgeous C'mon.
Beautiful but crappy
vertigo best looking map, worst map to play on
Oh boy I can't wait to see my favorite NA CS team winning a 5v1 against Refrezh on this very map!
Lol
Pain
The karmic imbalance of us winning a major had to be balanced out somehow
oh no, oh no no no no no no no
Should ESL have Liquid and Heroic redo their series in case it was a big fluke? No disrespect to Heroic, I'm a firm believer that Refrezh 1v5ing is a huge fluke and robs Liquid of truly accomplishing what their capable of.
Some of the best moments happened in this map. One of the greatest maps in all games 💯
D2 would like to have a word with you
@@MrByambaa602 I don’t think dust 2 has a single signature major moment in the last 5 years lol

EU can't relate
the roar of the crowd after Skadoodle killed Guardian gets me every time
The best third map for any series ever

I agree Dust2 and Office are the first 2

Boston major flashbacks intensified
@@Ph3nom1998 bruh office
Remember the London Major where like 80% of matches ended in Double OT on Inferno?
The other 20% were Astralis 2-0s
This map has hosted the greatest matches in cs history.
Facts
Love to watch. Hate to play. But it is comforting knowing Inferno is a month older than I am.
inferno is fun when youre in the perfect mood to sweat
Same,i do not feel comfortable when playing Inferno
I feel that way about nuke. Love to watch pro matches but i am incredibly Bad on that map
This map has seen NA'S first MAJOR, KennyS' knife clutch, Refrezh clutch, best "Juan Deage's" and the most obvious visual updates any map has ever seen! Why people hate this map is beyond me!
And Jame's 1v5
NIP full Legend Status
Am I the only one to think this, this video made me miss LANs so much, hearing the crowd and their reactions through the stream is just something that we haven’t seen in what feels like forever
No you are not the only one... i love going to These events
A 3 year old play still gives me chills. The "send them home" chant is always strong.
I honestly think Inferno is the greatest CS map of all time.
It is. I liked it in 1.6, in Source and both versions of cs:go. It's simplicity let's the players skill shine.
James and Dan are easily one of my favorite casting duos
In terms of gameplay, but in terms of sheer popularity it has to be Dust II
@@mel0n_tv especially James
Fr remove dust 2 and train and also bring back cache
Still waiting on the score esports story on the WarOwl
WarOwl is literally just a youtuber who makes helpful videos. While we're at it lets make a video about matz-csgo dope highlight editing
@@estevansmith6697 bro another youtuber that helps people is zipel and they made a video on him so why not warowl?
@@keenangsc8130 zipel did something noone else did though with the skin market. There are tons of people out there with tips on how to play CS just like WO
@@estevansmith6697 warowl doesn’t just do tips you clearly have never watched his videos
@@keenangsc8130 lmao lil WarOwl simp getting hutthurt over here? Never did i say he only does tips. But thats what he is most known for
I loved creating strats for my team on this map in 1.6 . We absolutely dominated this map. I remember we beat Rival 16-14 on inferno, when we were in CAL-M
Same here brother 1.6 vibes we are the OG’s .. I used to make crazy strats, wall bangs and A site wall rebound GTR flashes near box and good lan/ tourney winning memories on this map .. the original best 4 maps : d2,inferno,nuke And train ❤️👏👏
@@kraniumgaming4093 straight up, we were team live productions us-west , Cyberglobe CS movie
@@kraniumgaming4093 contractor$ on VR has most of those maps now. Im waiting for cs_assault that map and estate have a special place for me
Stew's B site hold always gives me goosebumps
The chills of the intros of the score "The story of" is never getting old. The editor is really doing a great job
How could you not show Astralis's B take against Fnatic to push them to overtime?? That shit was legendary 😍
This is one of the best videos you've done guys. Great job!
it’s actually insane, seeing the c9 boston major clip again just sent chills down my entire body because of how magnificent it all was
Videos like these always make me motivated to play CS right after
you guys make the best short minute documentaries i have ever seen. keep it up!
the nostalgia when i see original maps makes me cry 😢
Seeing pasha clips makes me so sad but somehow very happy. Don’t be sad it’s over, be happy you got to experience it. Virtus plow 2k16 was unmatched and essentially got me into the comp side of CS
That intro gave me chills, amazing work
opening kills, godlike performance, inhuman flicks, mindblowing strats, imposible clutch, everything is in this map
Turns out the longform videos I enjoy the most from this channel were mostly written by Dmitry. Color me surprised. I hope you keep making these.
Inferno is one of those old classics. Love the map.
ive only queued inferno for the past year. love the map
U good bro?
@@moistmoist5279 i basically only solo queue lol. i dont got friends lol, so i just got good at one map so i can at least have fun knowing all the angles and shit
@@slightlysilent i got no friends 2 lol, do the exact same but for train
@@user-nj7fk7xf7g train was a top map pick of mine for a long time so i respect it, its just if you get put against a stack that knows what they are doing youre fucked lol
Bruh
This narrator always give me chill to watch this kind of video
my favourite map, ngl
Inferno will be remembered as an iconic map not because of it's design or aesthetic. But because of the amazing moments in CS Esports we've seen through the years
i love these types of vids hope u guys do more since I finished nearly every single csgo vid
this is my favorite map of all time. The combination between rotation and utility are the reason I love to play on this map and it also makes cs gameplay looks so beautiful. It's not just another aim battle map.
The intro montage is nothing but goosebumps!
Some of my most insane plays happened on this map. Nevery really thought about it but its true, in order to win someone needs to make some crazy plays
Now I have to watch the Envy vs G2.Kinguin match again on this map lol. It was at Dreamhack Cluj-Napoca 2015 and ended at 25-21 where fox played the match of his life. One of the best CS matches I have ever seen in general
Inferno, the second or third map decider in a important CS event, Boston Major final C9 vs Faze, great match, great commentators, great emotions, thank you for this map
Have made so many memories getting collaterals, getting collateraled, dying by molotovs, eating grenades at banana
Always the 3rd map pick and will always be thank you
easily the most hype intro to a theScore esports vid ever
I'd LOVE a video about the old school custom maps like Rats, ScoutzKnivez, and Pool Party etc.
“The Story of fy_iceworld”
'The story of hiding in trees on de_tides'
'The story of sniping n00bs in the sewers on cs_militia'
'The story of endless 20 player rushes on public cs_office'
One of the longest matches, One of the greatest deag aces, One of the greatest major, One of the greatest knifes, and so much more. Clearly one of the best maps.
i just forgot about the refrezh clutch now youve made me rewatch it
That opening honestly gave me goosebumps.
Still waiting on "The story of Spawn" OG cs 1.6 player with a unique style of gameplay.
Honestly don't know who that is, but i'll watch a video with that title/thumbnails
@@Nekroz05 this channel is really sleeping on him man. Go watch some frag highlights from SpawN he’s an absolute monster. Big crosshair player kinda like n0thing
How's that? I'm curious mate
Spawn the King of trigger discipline
@@Nekroz05 watch some... He is the king!
That opening edit was actually so hype
That 2018 Boston clip will hunt me till the end of my days
The intro was fire dude!!!!!!!
I reach le spamming this map with my trusted shotgun, nova. This is my highest win rate map before i quit csgo when it became f2p. So much memories on this map since 1.1 with my first pc when i was a kid.
the intro was giving me chills
Oh man 2013-2016 CS:GO was sooo good. I remember this was the first game i actually bought for myself in 2013, when i was 13yo. So much memmories.
dude that ace clutch by refrezh to bring it to overtime.. incredible
Inferno as decider, never gets old
Love this map
The freaking chills watching the intro
I know inferno more than my house....
Inferno feels like the map that puts player's skill/technique in every aspect to the ultimate test, especially on T side.
That intro gave me chills bro tf
That refrezh clutch is going to be legendary
One thing will always be true about this map for our precious CSGO pros, some will have remember their biggest memory from this map and for some this map will always hunt them.
Hate this map personally when playing it. But I gotta admit it is almost always entertaining in pro play
Love the video keep it up
I love how the original version of this map was based off the Mission Church in my home town! :)
Wow
Inferno is anxiety as a map - when it "just doesn't work"
bro whenever I see c9 Boston 2018 references I can’t help but shed a tear god I love c9
This is by far my favorite map
I remember playing inferno for the first time, I hated it and didn't play for a month or so, but in my second game onwards I just fell in love, dust2 and inferno will always be in my heart
Yeah, but dust 2 is ruined now, no but for real
i got to see happys deagle ace live, that shit gives you chills man
When you shrink a battlefield down and pit desperate, calculating pros against each other it makes for legendary moments. Every game needs a narrow lane map and Inferno delivers so well.
I just started playing CS:GO and I love this map. My favorite.
Since Boston. NA still struggles to find back their pride.
But at least chickens in CS are 4K now.
The Happy's deagle play was nostalgic
Q: how many cloud9 clips do you want to include in this video?
theScore: **yes**
my favorite CS map, since my beginning in 2001
Best map in CS history no doubt.
D2 would like to have a word with you
@@MrByambaa602 absolutely not
@@MrByambaa602 Dust 2 is the most iconic but best...
This is my favorite map, also can we all agree that the best moments in csgo history happened on this map
You know you love this map!
Well personaly i love this map i know how many times i have solo handlet retakes, Inferno is the most playable map for my opinion.This map is the History made by not only pros but also from random players💪🏻💪🏻
I love this map
OMG I remember that ladder right before banana. Such a scummy place up there XD My favourite map, to watch and play!
The intro gave me chills lol
Man this is my favorite map
I'll never forget IBuyPower vs Penta Sports, what a hell of a game man.
My favorite Map 😍
I still get fricken goosebumps from Stewie’s hold on B site. Watched that live and it was magical.
Sick
Inspiration of Spain, based of a area in US, now with Italian flags, with all it changes it will always be the best in my opinion
Source was so good man
the final montage gave me FUCKING GOOSEBUMPS
Loved inferno ever since the 1.1 days. Didn't get good at it til 1.5 though.
A whole video on inferno without Zywoo's banana ace/legacy being mentioned? Just goes to show HOW much history is embedded into one maps legacy.
Great map!
What a Video
Always loved Inferno since 1.6
inferno, mirage and nuke are my favourites
but ive been playing hostage map just to get insertion 2 nonstop ahhaha
Fav map
3:29 damm zonic and threat playing and 20 years later they are still compeeting against each other
Yay my favorite map for the longest time.
I swear I watched every moment of that intro, live when it happened. So many memories. Long live counterstrike.
9:22 that reminds me of "thank you mario! but the princess is in another castle!"
