Video: Best memories from the first 15 CS:GO Majors

22-10-2021 21:00

Relive the unforgettable rounds from the game's most prestigious tournaments in the lead-up to the PGL Major Stockholm.

From Richard "⁠shox⁠" Papillon's incredible 1v3 clutch on Dust2 in 2013 to Nicolai "⁠device⁠" Reedtz's three-second, three-bullet sequence on Train in 2019, every CS:GO Major provided us unique moments that stand the test of time. Some were a result of individual skill, some were pulled off thanks to brilliant gamesense, and others required a bit of luck — but all of them resulted in much than just a round won.

coldzera's jumping double at MLG Columbus remains one of the most iconic Major plays

Janusz "⁠Snax⁠" Pogorzelski's "Sneaky Beaky" play on Mirage against NIP defined him as a player, while Mihail "⁠Dosia⁠" Stolyarov's bank-breaking HE against Immortals remains iconic. Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David's quad kill hold on Mirage changed the tides of the semi-final against Liquid, setting the Brazilian squad on route to establishing their era while the North American team took years to become a truly dominant side.

Jake "⁠Stewie2K⁠" Yip' locking down B on Inferno against FaZe brought redemption and the first Major title to North America, while plays such as Olof "⁠olofmeister⁠" Kajbjer's boost on Overpass and Hovik "⁠KQLY⁠" Tovmassian's jumping one-tap remain controversial to this day.

Click play on the video below, made by Radosław "MAKKU" Makuch to watch the 10-minute video to relive some of the best memories from the first 15 CS:GO Majors.

2021-11-03 21:46

u so stupid. we must have 2 majors to say true? nice 0 iq

2021-11-06 16:35

Yes

2021-11-06 16:43

well how u see we saying true without 2 majors:)

Pretty cool

nice

good video

Fak man, I don't wanna cry 😢

Nope, sorry - not gonna cry tonight.

2021-10-22 21:03

the xseven 1v1 against s1mple. goosbumps

2021-10-22 21:04

And painful to watch. However i think NaVi wouldn't beat Astralis in the finals, if S1mple won that.

2021-10-23 18:32

Nah definitely not, Astralis was still in peak form then

2021-10-23 21:03

coldzera brought so many memories, man i miss this guy dominating so much

2021-10-22 21:06

Device's 1v3 in 3 seconds with 3 Headshots on 3 bullets with 3 points of health deserved a graffiti.

2021-10-22 21:13

yeah, thats so underrated

2021-10-22 21:23

not at all. You saw equal plays in many other matches from different players. Graffiti should only be for things that are unique and probably could only deliver by these players alone.

2021-10-22 21:31

Nah He deserved one.

2021-10-22 21:52

yeah because only olofmeister can defuse in a moltov good one

2021-10-22 22:06

nope but only can do it in a crucial round that decides everything.

2021-10-22 22:16

You cant be so brave to actually defuse on fire

2021-10-23 10:27

C9 also should get one for their defuse

2021-10-23 13:23

but he shot 7 bullets tho?

2021-10-22 21:42

But 3 bullet and 3 HS tho?

6 replies

4 wasted shots mean you suck.

2021-10-22 21:54

Well, not really but I get the point you're trying to make.

2021-10-22 22:28

But 3 is different from 7, nah?

3 HS on 3 bullets are 3 HS on 3 bullets.

2021-10-22 21:56

whiffing 4 shots then hitting 3 is not equal to only hitting 3 shots

2021-10-22 23:20

But hitting 3 shots in a row to get 3 heashot kills is what's the gist about.

2021-10-23 06:02

this made me cry...

2021-10-22 21:14

There is something wrong with you then

2021-10-22 22:52

why

2021-10-23 10:04

Nobody cries watching cs highlights. And if you do, you should go see a therapist

2021-10-23 10:07

It's not just highlights. It's nostalgic moments from all the majors. I've been watching csgo scene from cluj napoca 2015 and I miss those times.

2021-10-23 10:19

If they add g2 failed defuse on nuke you will not cry

2021-10-23 10:28

Nostalgy cry😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

2021-10-22 21:15

Good video and that actually included clips I hadn’t seen. Especially the device banana play was a very good clip

2021-10-22 21:16

nice video Radek ;))

2021-10-22 21:17

POOOOOOOG

xseveN > s1mple

2021-10-22 21:22

just beautiful i love cs

2021-10-22 21:24

My best moment was when Flusha on Cache looked "aimlocked" from under B heaven to the vent room. That is a scene I never forget. Even now I see the scene in my head. This is literally CS for me. I am not gonna lie Back then 2016 When S1mple made his drop I was like "yeah okay" but when I watch it today I think wtf.

2021-10-22 21:27

2021-10-22 21:28

nuts edit

cool!

2021-10-22 21:30

2021-10-22 21:32

good vibes, excited for the major letsgoooooooo

15 years of Major highlights and still cadiaN's clutch in the ESL Pro League Season 13 grand final beats them all.

Love the commentary even more than the actual scene <3

2021-10-22 21:48

Hunden told him where everyone is

2021-10-22 22:45

2021-10-23 00:06

This is true?

2021-10-23 12:18

Nah... Just joking

2021-10-23 12:23

refrezh 1v5>>>>>>>>>

2021-10-23 10:03

Where neo 1vs5 on overpass ;-;

it wasn't major

2021-10-22 21:38

dreamhack open isnt major lmao

2021-10-22 21:43

Where highlight with top2 player of the world

Yeah, that was a great time)

am i the only one who this video made cry?

2021-10-22 21:40

Can you kids shut up about this crying bs? Nobody cries watching cs highlights. And if you do, you should go see a therapist

2021-10-22 22:48

most of the video, nope, the s1mple lost clutch alone makes me sad. That's the only clutch attempt added where they lost the round but everyone knows, the 7 seconds, the unwinnable clutch and he wallbangs, everyone is believing and then, it fukken hurts. It's the most memorable lost clutch in csgo history. nt s1mple.

2021-10-23 16:01

beautiful

2021-10-22 21:41

that was amazing

2021-10-22 21:45

cool vid for newbs

Cool vid for old farts too

2021-10-22 22:53

Look at 2015 Cologne Semmler and Anders and compare them now

"Marcelo "⁠coldzera⁠" David's quad kill hold on Mirage changed the tides of the semi-final against Liquid, setting the Brazilian squad on route to establishing their era while the North American team took years to become a truly dominant side." Every brazilian hater rn: It'S NoT eRa, sK/lUmINoSiTy dIdN't hAvE a ErA BUAHHH

2021-10-22 21:53

bro this fucking hype for the major is about to kill me no joke

sad how many unskilled awp noscopes are considered the "exciting memorable plays"

Bait harder Sure they are lucky but it still takes skill to place the imaginary crosshair(which you can't see) onto the target. It's a testament to the players crosshair placement and visualization skills

2021-10-22 22:49

not only this, but those players have balls to go for those plays. For example s1mple's play - u rly have to be brave to go for that shit

2021-10-23 13:00

Lovely video!

CSGO 2012-16 (read old patch) was more playable, enjoyable for players & entertaining for viewers. Maps were clear, no shadows and necessary stuff like nowadays ones full with shit shadows & textures I miss old sound of AK & M4 - just amazing. CSGO 2017-2021 patch is so ridioculous ( awp & tapping ) stuff, which make csgo so random, pugging game, one of the reason why teams/scene are so unstable and inconsistent. Also ingame economy sucks About edit, just great

2021-10-22 22:02

old AK sound is objectively ear rape

2021-10-22 22:12

Old ak sound is horrible

2021-10-22 22:50

Old awp sound was so epic

2021-10-23 00:14

thanks hltv for doing what PGL should have done. Much love <3

2021-10-22 22:03

how dare you not include olof tec-9 ace

2021-10-22 22:09

Great video for newfags like me!

incredible video nice job MAKKU

Damn i miss Hiko, Cold, Happy, Flusha and Olaf on their peaks

2021-10-22 22:23

Legendary...

2021-10-22 22:25

wouldn't be possible with crowd noise

2021-10-22 22:40

Not 15 years of majors you dumbo, it's 6 years (2013 to 2019). 15 is the numbers of Majors ever held.

2021-10-23 00:55

I havent laughed this hard in a week xaxaxaxaxaxaxa

mir is the best player to ever play csgo

2021-10-22 23:30

Nice video, but shouldn't show highlights from a banned cheater

2021-10-22 23:43

S1mple vs Ence :( Probably, only the Finns were glad that S1mple could not win this clutch :(

2021-10-23 00:05

Pain.

2021-10-23 06:44

s1mple could have played that last 1v1 against xseven so much better, but he got way too greedy and actually deserved that. Still great attempt from him and made my heart stop for awhile :)

2021-10-23 09:34

"OMG!!! INHUMAN REACTIONS!!!" "WHAAAAT!! A JUMPING DOUBLE FOR COOOOOOLD!!!!" - Semmler cheering for allu's on his 3k on train as Anders almost breaks his own neck casting the last frag My favorites

2021-10-23 00:54

Anders is a fucking goat, it's been a long while since I've heard his hype like this, so long since I've heard his last hyped ARE YOU KIDDING ME??!?!?!?!?!?!? LETS GO <3

2021-10-23 02:18

Great video thank you. Hope for an epic Major this year.

2021-10-23 07:29

Wtf hltv I'm crying now :(

2021-10-23 07:41

FeelsStrongMan

2021-10-23 09:18

Glad to see how they included simple in that video. Made flashy plays. managed lucky RNG noscope. then baited the teammate to get kills. failed the round. failed the majors. it trully is well reflecting video on the past of the majors. also - turretzeras jumping no-scopes are also extremely overrrated RNG.

2021-10-23 11:14

amazing video!!! imagine beeing Xseven in that spot at that score in that game 1 v 1 with the best player at that time and probably this year as well unless something stupid happens to Navy i wonder what was the graffiti he did over s1mple, anybody knows?

2021-10-23 11:31
