i always wonder what would have happened if device never left.

[@zettour.]

Lol, that picture of dupreeh in a Preasy jersey made me think he was in JANO at some point with that "JAKO" sponsor.

[@PRZ64]

Amazing video, suggestions: Brazil and French scenes rise and fall

[@starkillerCS]

I’m glad you enjoyed :)

[@gustavkollingnystrm2002]

Pandemic ends Astralis era i have no doubts.

[@forcast4267]

yeah the pandemic fucked us up

[@travisb1o0m19]

No, navi and mouz were playing better cs than astralis in late 2019 and early 2020

[@pontussss]

@@travisb1o0m19 So were fnatic but they fell waaaay harder :(

[@zettour.]

​@@travisb1o0m19That was due to burnout though. They were still a beast, gla1ve literally peaked at IEM Beijing which was late 2019. Even after, in early 2020, the only team truly on Astralis's level was NAVI. MOUZ won at EPL over Astralis, but that series was very flukey by MOUZ. NAVI's Katowice 2020 run was what cemented them in the running for best team whereas MOUZ was sort of farming tournaments that few top teams were in attendance for. When Astralis truly ended was when dev1ce left. The team never dropped below Top 5 (apart from when gla1ve/Xyp9x took a break) until he left in April 2021. They were still the best overall in 2020 and continued to be good in 2021 until Lucky came along and basically imploded the team cause of how terrible he was.

Fantastic video. What an absolute banger of a time in CS history.

[@starkillerCS]

[@RJ-gu3wb]

Good summary, but I don't like the title. The question "where did Astralis go wrong?" wasn't a part of it, really

[@starkillerCS]

What do you think may have been a more appropriate title ? I agree with you I think I rushed thinking abt it

[@RJ-gu3wb]

​@@starkillerCS maybe something of the likes of "The Rise and Downfall of the Greatest Dynasty in Counter-Strike"?

[@starkillerCS]

Appreciate the feedback :)

[@spwhite3339]

That one Inferno from NaVi ended the era

[@faker3033]

Good content, gotta make the thumbnail a bit more eye catching and then u will pop off

[@downnnnnn]

You didn’t really talk about the fall of Astralis. It was more just.. the riseee and then suddenly device leaves the team when that’s not what happened

[@starkillerCS]

i appreciate the comment, your right it does feel a bit abrupt with the way i ended it. This was one of my earlier scripts and I wanted to finally get it out more than anything. Thank you for the feed back :)

[@MrJelleLive]

smart usage of nades they totally dominated, but team communication? how would that be a talking point?

[@glaveglave7000]

Lol? Bro their teamplay was the second most noticeable factor of their gameplay

[@MrJelleLive]

@@glaveglave7000 team play is not communication, you can have great synergy but call like shit

[@christianmygind799]

Great video man! Small thing, but it is pretty obvious that you are reading from a script here, which is a bit of a shame :)

[@starkillerCS]

Thank u for the feedback :)

[@spwhite3339]

How do you even record a video that long without reading the script

[@KeefeL]

Don't need to pronounce the es in Marseilles, great work though

[@starkillerCS]

😅 thank u

[@lovesmrjarrett]

gud video, but i can barely hear u!!

[@ahnafrayeedahmed]

bro ur hearing has issues

[@starkillerCS]

Sorry about that I’ll raise my mic volume next vid
