20-2-2013 02:12

We are back with a video highlight from ESEA Invite Season 13 Europe and an action from the Swedish superstar, Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg, in NiP's match against ESC Gaming.

In one of the most interesting matches yesterday, NiP faced ESC Gaming in ESEA Invite Season 13 Europe online stage. For NiP it was a chance to climb up to 15 victories in a row, but for ESC Gaming it was one of the last chances to keep them in the race for a spot at the Global Finals.

de_cache was the map where they met and where we saw Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg leave no hope at all for the Polish team. We bring you his best action from the match, which he starts by killing one enemy and then resolves a 1 versus 3 situation in favor of the Swedish team.

2013-02-20 12:07

yes yes... i remember distinctly when f0rest make 4 hs @ cache vs ESC... f0rest is complete player.

2013-02-20 12:55

lolol, it was heaton and robban, wath are you talking about? in GO f0rest>neo but in 1.6 neo way better then f0rest.

2013-02-20 13:02

way better? u must be kidding.. f0rest best player ever.. ALONG with NEO

2013-02-20 14:34

not in 1.6

2013-02-20 21:57

forest won the most titles and most money in 1.6, he has the most aces, highlights, most professional players said f0rest is the best player touched cs, he has the most fans from professionals, so sorry but neo 2nd

2013-02-20 12:39

Neo is the european and world player of the decade as well the greatest ever (hltv.org and fragbite sources), not talking that he was the best player on the last year of competive scene (2011, with majors and all teams playing)

2013-02-20 13:13

voted by million polish fanboys. never mind, both are great and with GTR are the 3 best players ever

Poles aren't the majority here.

2013-02-20 14:38

there are not so many poles there because some of accounts are just fake, I mean one guy have 2 or 3 accounts and as you would know HLTV admins didn't count fake accounts (same IPs) and still NEO won by votes so your argument is wrong, NEO as well as f0rest have so many fans not only in Poland/Sweden but outside of too

2013-02-20 14:47

Polish people just vote for neo, Swedish people vote for f0rest, get_right, xizt, delpan or whatever. Ofc f0rest isnt gonna get as many votes. People vote for countries and not players on this overly patriotic site

2013-02-20 14:55

patriotism goes along with all sports and it is no difference in eSports. it has nothing to do with a website.. But yes, agree with your first part.

2013-02-20 23:11

you should definitely look at Thorins thoughts fragbite.se/?blogID=9&postID=336

2013-02-20 17:48

lol how many realy big and prestige title won f0rest? How many: WCG,ESWC,IEM??? NEO won: 3xwcg,2xESWC and 2xIEM. In 1.6 Neo was a little better than f0rest. In GO f0rest is much better than NEO.

well imo neo is a beast on go just like f0rest.. the teamplay / some of the other individuals of esc are not on the same level as on nip.

2013-02-20 15:36

well you cant just compare how many big titles they won, then you could also say loord > f0rest.. overall i think f0rest won enough big titles and is slightly more skilled on individual level than neo, so over all i think its 50/50 whos better

2013-02-20 18:05

of course it is hard to say who is better... but IMO neo and f0rest were on same skill level, but neo had something "magic" in his playstale ( 2 magic hs with 1 hp vs robban&heaton; 2 magic hs glock burst in jump vs mtw or magic clutch 1vs3 in 2007 ESWC final vs NoA and many many more ). F0rest is raw skilled with great expiernced ~ old fox Neo is neo ~ wizard of 1.6. I'm waiting for some magic in cs go ;-) And to be honest neo casted more main-event big title ;-)

2013-03-04 15:22

f0rest = neo In my opinion you simply can`t compare them . For me they were equal in matter of in-game skills. Both of them were one of the greatest 1.6 players! Cheers

2013-02-20 13:19

CS 1.6 + CS:GO, 2 Best players are f0rest and GeT_RiGhT

Swedes > Poles

2013-02-20 09:58

f0rest can't do it vs ESC on LAN. No fanboy replies pls.

2013-02-20 09:59

Hight sensitivity style

2013-02-20 10:26

I dont want to criticize forest, I think that he is a great cs player..., but even killing an afk in a 1.6 public server is more exciting to do and to watch than these csgo "hihglights"...

If these highlights are that bad, so why you're still watching them? To cry in comments?

2013-02-20 10:59

he watched them and realized they were bad, how can he know that without watching? fuck logic..

2013-02-20 16:18

cry more

2013-02-20 11:02

Thats because you dont play the game and dont see the skill. f0rest movement and positioning is insane

why are you watching it then

2013-02-20 15:39

Exactly.Theese clips can't be compared with 1.6one`s.

2013-02-20 16:53

i can sense that you havnt played the game more than 2 hours if at all. GO clips looked stupid before to me too but not anymore

2013-02-20 18:10

f0rest plays LOL every day and just jumps into matches in GO and owning everyone. Thats sick

2013-02-20 10:55

shitty crosshair

+1 i dont understand why people would use that

It's a standard highlight clip. I don't really think that matters... Honestly, on the viewer side, that's actually the best one.

2013-02-20 11:49

WE ARE ON THE VIEWERS SIDE.. so crosshair sucks big time

2013-02-20 12:00

You are indeed. What about a normal person who doesn't play Counter-Strike at all ? :) Give me a plausible and logical reason to change the crosshair instead of just saying "sucks big time". (I don't believe we are discussing a simple crosshair issue lol..)

2013-02-20 12:04

who cares about person who dont play csgo? just use the 1.6 standard crosshair and no one will be dissatisfied with it - even the person who dont play the game

2013-02-20 13:44

this crosshair is annoying. im just look on him all the time instead of watching movie.. terribly distracting

2013-02-20 14:29

yeah exactlly its a standard counter strike highlight clip so why not keep the standard counter strike crosshair?

2013-02-20 12:18

That's the "Default Static" one.. lol.

2013-02-20 12:22

u cant take the point...

2013-02-20 14:19

2013-02-20 11:38

So, ESC can't reach the offline finals ?

2013-02-20 12:08

Nope. They're done for ESEA this season.

2013-02-20 13:45

what the song?

2013-02-20 12:27

nice as always error

4ever !!

2013-02-20 14:16

dA King

2013-02-20 14:42

yeah that was sick by f0rest and stupid moves by ESC in one, ESC guys realised their mistakes maybe after 13-15 rounds (second half) when they decided to play in cross positions which is safe to defend the bomb but NiP guys were smart enough to win that 1v3 and 1v2 by friberg (and this was similar situation when taz or pasha ran out after planting the bomb instead of f.e camping and waiting for enemies (safe play)

2013-02-20 15:13

Nothing special. ESC played like total noobs without brain ;-)

2013-02-20 15:29

I like the way how you FANBOYS are arguing each other ! f0rest and NEO are both gr8 legendary playerz, FULL STOP

2013-02-20 16:10

true story

2013-02-21 16:40

fOrEsT-dA-sIcK~~~

2013-02-20 17:13

This f0rest vs neo talk is so retarded. They were both the kings of 1.6, there is no way to say whos the best besides personal preference. They were simply the best. Now, on cs:go, f0rest is just way better
