When CycloneSpin Was The Best In The World - Legendary Smite Moments

[@BettySmite]

If you guys remember what else happened at this LAN, you might be able to guess my next video...

[@kfn93]

Allied's penta?

Ding ding ding we have a winner

Do Legendary smite moment for NRG. Please

[@robinsteele7541]

Like your vids man. Very nostalgic. An idea for some future videos: The Unicorn Build and when Cyclone unleashed the burst build for Ao Kuang.

[@christianhatch1630]

Anyone else heart wrench when they see Allied? Rest in peace brother, we miss you.

[@marquisfire5]

How’d he die

[@christianhatch1630]

@@marquisfire5 he had cancer, stage 3 stomach cancer. He beat it and was a back up on a team in season 5 but out of no where he relapsed and passed away. I absolutely loved this man. He was a big personality from pre season 1. One of the first smite streamers and personalities. A truly amazing person. He will always be remembered. When they redesigned the last conquest map they added a statue of him on the order side doing his signature pose in a Greek toga. Smite did a bunch of funds raisers for him during season 3-4 as well as other streamers and they donated all proceeds to cancer foundations and his medical bills. Smite hasn't been the same since. Truly a great and devastating loss. But his memory lives on in KZbin videos.

[@kieranpavlat1779]

I didnt even recognize him from back then

[@Razinik44]

Recently on the Backliner's podcast while discussing the Mount Rushmore for Smite on each role, Cyclone was overlooked (as were others) due to being multi-role over the years, and Aggro sort of shrugged off his success in Solo as his whole team built themselves around letting him carry. While I understand the concept, especially since it makes sense that putting a carry in solo lane requires another front liner on your team or they suffer without it (which was usually Weak3n), nobody was carrying this effectively out of jg or other roles, and he was doing it on seemingly any pick he felt like. Back to back triples on Guan Yu? It's crazy. Seeing this video helped me remember how dominant he was. I will say I would still struggle to put him in the Mount Rushmore of Solo laners due to how many iconic ones there have been, but dismissing his dominance like that was quite an understatement imo!

[@seandavidson2788]

Which episode of the podcast do they talk about this on?

[@Razinik44]

Cyclone is the only player I can think of that's been the #1 player in 2 roles. He is in another realm when it comes to smite

[@Colliholic]

Did you forget about Baskin? Mid/Solo?

[@tylerprime6741]

@@metalnitro99 he carried the way he did because his team knew if they kept him safe they won. He still played amazingly but its hard to say he was on the same level as Yammyn back then. It's not like I'm saying Baskin wasn't arguably #1 (personally I don't believe he was) but cyclone was without a doubt the #1 solo and adc

[@metalnitro99]

@@tylerprime6741 While I think of Yammyn as the best midlaner ever I still think that was one of the few times he wasn't the best current mid(Cuz Baskin was). That being said I get your point.

[@BOOM555]

He was the reason I chose my first favorite team in AFK when I started watching SPL. CycloneSpin GOATED imo

[@TheCsquared08]

I'm still so sad this team fell apart before Worlds. They were so good and so fun to watch. At least Splyce felt like the reincarnation of AFK en route to their World Championship.

[@capurera2]

These videos consistently make my day. Thank you for all the hard work. As for suggestions, Variety tearing up the league on thana was amazing to watch. He was soloing people left and right. He deserved the mvp of the tournament even though he lost

[@liamfitzgerald8313]

Another fantastic video. Like the feel and flow of it. Also very informative since i missed the first 2 seasons

[@itzshadowz7467]

Cyclone arguably has the biggest god pool of any player in the spl. Probably been in the most roles too. Very underrated imo

[@TheTabaK23]

I had no idea that dm was a caster for early spl. That’s a huge stain on the pro scene ugh

[@mkpanther1343]

It is in hindsight. It was the suicide thing on stream that got him fired from SPL in the first place.
