games like valorant and r6 are fun to me but counter strike will always be my favorite, and this match is the one that got me into it. The way people were crying in happiness, the way stewie had 3 bullets to kill 3 people, the way the longest standing member of c9 got the final kill, the way it broke records and got eyes on the game in a time where it’s future popularity wise was in question, allowing valve to release updates throughout 2018 and grow the game further. it was perfect

I had the privilege of witnessing the 2018 Boston Major live, and it was one of the most incredible experiences of my life. My heart was set on Faze winning, but I found myself inexplicably thrilled when C9 emerged victorious. As a Brazilian who had attended the Furia vs Navi match in 2022 with a wild crowd, I can say with certainty that nothing compares to the rush of emotions I felt during that fateful CSGO match in Boston. In my opinion, it was the greatest game of CSGO ever played, bar none. The memory of the ground shaking beneath my feet as the entire crowd erupted in pure joy after Stewie's solo defense of B on Inferno remains seared in my mind. I know I'll never forget it.

Respect to you brother for speaking the truth. Furia is a team I can see someday having a moment just like this, the EU crowd still doesn't give them the respect they deserve but they've been on that steady climb much as C9 was before Boston it's only a matter of time.
@williamrosa8577 Жыл бұрын
@@Naraku-no-Hana-WE I mean, Brazil already had 2 majors years before NA got theirs but the champion playing in front of the home crowd is what really made Boston so special, moments like these come down to a lot of coincidence and luck and not only skill. Who knows when we're gonna get another brazilian major and then again we have to pray for a brazilian team, most likely Furia (but who knows now with CS2), to be in a good enough shape at that specific time to be able to fight for the trophy.

The main selling point of the C9 Boston Major run was the story the games and plays themselves weren't that great if you compare them to modern day CS like Karrigan calling the rotate way too late but no major run has ever had a story like C9 did in 2018 other than Gambit but Gambit won a relatively weak major in my opinion while C9 defeated what was the greatest team ever at that point I mean Olaf,Niko,Guardian,Karrigan and Rain are arguably all top 30 player of all time while 3 of them have an argument for GOAT status and were at one point or another the best player in the world. While Faze and Navi were just the 2 outright favorite battling it out.

I was in the stands that day. When C9 lost Mirage, I truly thought it was over. Faze was going to win their first major with a team that’s massively OP as I expected teams to spend a lot more into rosters that are sparse with talent, but little with cohesion and nationality. The last part is what united C9 obviously, nationality. An all American team. Cohesion that day was something special. There was no ego, no dipshit plays, and with a culture that’s fun and competitive. Winning Overpass was a shock. Even with the score line C9 produced in that map. Inferno remains a dream to me as I remember Karrigan wide ass peak on Stew to save Faze in overtime. In short, C9 came back and won. The crowd was loud and NA CS won that day. Amazing video!

Great Video so far, but a few misconceptions on the major stages on @32:40 , understandable as the format kinda change from what was known on the previous major; Krakow 2017. From ELeague boston 2018, the format was as following: On each Stage but the playoffs, you got against each other on a Swiss Best of 1 (Bo1) Swiss format means that you play teams on a similar score than you; so teams that win 1 match go against each others, and teams that went on a 0-1 record fight another 0-1 and so on until every team has either 3 wins or 3 loses 1) You have New Challengers Stage: They invited the teams that got to the PGL Offline Major but did not reach legends (Cloud9 was 1 of those teams as they went 2-3 on the best of 1 format) - From here, 16 teams will fight for 8 slots to participate on the New Legends Stage - loses or 3 wins (3 loses meaning you are out) * Because Inmortals (the runner up from Krakow) change organizations and couldnt have the papers on time, they did not participate on the major, meaning there was an additional spot, and all the teams that went 2-3 on New Challengers got to play a bo1 decider for the 8th slot ( 3 way tie between Renegades Avangar and Liquid, because of round diferential, the winner between Renegades and Avangar will play Liquid for the spot; This is why Liquid made it to the New Legends Stage) Cloud9 was looking good, as they made it into the New Legends Stage with a 3-0, but they did get invited to this stage, because they got onto the previous Major Legend Stage, and not because they were on a good lvl @33:22 ; you also put an Graphic for the NEXT major that was Faceit London Major, event that Cloud9 did got invited because they won the Eleague Boston Major, but thats another topic (they bombed out of the event along with Faze, ouch) 2) Every team that makes top 8 (playoffs) on the previous major, qualify directly to the "New Legends Stage"; where teams fight for 8 slots to go to the playoffs with again bo1 competition with the teams that made it from New Challengers. You dont need to play 5 teams as you mention on a graphic on @36:41 @39:16, you only need to, again, win 3 matches, but because Cloud9 got defeated by G2 and Space Soldiers (Xantares an Paz played a hell of a game tbh), they where against the ropes as they went 0-2 and needed to win every single other game to made it onto the next phase. Additionaly, you mention that Stewie didnt have experience on the big stages, but they already participated on the Krakow and many other lan events with big teams on the line @37:40.

Before I clicked on this video I thought to myself, "Is this the Cloud9 dub?" I remember watching it live back in the day and oh my god was it a trip then. It was also my first and only major I've really watched and followed with, thankfully I backed the right horse at the time to make it even better. Thank you for the wonderful video to bring me back to that wonderful moment.

Man I wish I could like this video 1000 times. I felt like I was watching this match for the first time again. Would love to see more of these videos in the future!

I wish you didnt oversell Skadoodle he literally only showed up in the final but to be fair thats where it counted the most. In all honesty Ska held the team back with his poor performances up until the major final. Stewie even said during this very major run "him or me" thats how bad it had gotten.

I'm glad Valve uses the casters they use, cause for people not really knowing the game the reactions from others gives them a sense on how insane this really is, thousands of people, best players in the world, you're average 3k is a 3k, a 3k at a major, now THATS a big deal, and the casters let them know that
