donk is him... Check out Skins Monkey here: skinsmonkey.com/r/AUSTIN
no surprise why your channel is not growing as you did not mention Niko 😵
Thanks for allowing me to appreciate these donk plays in so much more depth
W taste in content Sparkles
so ur telling me they unironically have the strat "donk go kill" 😂
donk. smash.
Everyone got donked 😭 I'm a big NaVi fan, so at first I was sad watching them lose to TS... Now I'm looking back and I'm just surprised they somehow got a whole map against TS, kinda mind-blowing
lucky map only, now they even lost 2:0 to VP.
@@mihael1251 one L doesn't mean they got lucky in their previous maps, they're still 17 W / 9 L on the map (according to HLTV)
@justarandomdood they was lucky to win 1 map against Spirit, cause they much worse team. p.s. do not like yourself comments, it's not good to lick yourself balls.

Hate the remedial twits who use that dumb crying face for everything
His team set him up perfectly, he's obviously an insane player but look how many flashes sh1ro, magisk and chopper use to set him up. It massively helps donk that all his teammates even though they are all really good players have absolutely no ego. Chopper and sometimes even magixx even jump around in front of him to bait the opponents out for him. EDIT: i just checked sh1ro, chopper and magixx were all top 10 for flash assists at katowice
donk, sh1ro and zont1x in particular have glorious teamwork on the CT side!
How it should be really, you play to win and if I know I have an insane prodigy on my team that can kill anyone & everyone, i'm doing everything in my power to let him frag out.
Damn dude - I've been watching your channels for a while and as impressive as Donks gameplay was at Katowice I'm even more impressed by your flow as you narrate this video! You're in your groove man! Keep up the good work Austin! You are appreciated!
Austin, i've played cs for 24-25 years, since the half life mod beta. I've seen good, great and amazing players. Great and amazing are a high level, but is there anything higher? Yes, Elite level. Elite level players do have an incredible understanding of the timing on each scenario, they have a book in their head and have written it themselves. You can't teach someone the way donk plays, you can't show them and explain it to them and expect them to understand. This kid envisions things like no ordinary player. When most have their hands on a keyboard and mouse and are telling themselves their next move, donk has a knife in his right hand and his left is bare, he already knows his play, whether he wins or completes it, he doesn't second guess himself, he doesn't even think, he just knows it's right for the position and timing he's on. He quite literally puts himself in the game and is the character running around with the weapon instead of most knowing they are a player. I know this because i was that guy too. There are many players that have been able to play with a heightened sense, and a lot have never even been on the pro scene or heard of. The game is very skill based and you can also get very far with a smart brain depending on the role you play in a team. It's when you combine them both and do it subconsciously that you become a donk level Elite player guys. You see players think and contemplate situations, and that's great, but when you're doing it without having to think, that's when you know. Just some yummy food for thought, i hope to see more of you.
Also on your side tangent, i agree the team aspect can counter any player, a decent team and co ordination can beat any single player. But the beauty of that is it works both ways, that great player can also counter that whole team. It's one of the greatest things about our game, a 1 vs 5 situation can nearly always be won with the right read and positioning and man we love to see it. The bottom line is donk is showing everyone a new level of cs2, which is crazy to say with the likes of monesy, niko, ropz, broky, zywoo and the list goes on in the scene. That's insane to say..
@@RedawNLIVEthose flow states are always something I'm chasing. Many of have experienced it briefly, where our own book of experience can give us a 6th sense, and it becomes a rhythm game of timings! I haven't reached that state in CS yet with 20+ years on and off. I reached that state in Overwatch when it was new, then fell off it with the constantly shifting sands of metas, balancing, etc and I couldn't keep up, and the community began to rot, and I did other things with my time. Ty for writing about it, it's kind of where I've seen all the highest level play boil down to in the end.
Bro blowin bubbles on it
The analysis is top notch Austin, you got a brain for Counter-Strike dude! Would love to see you on a panel at a tournament doing game analysis
How tf are you still at sub 30k. I see you everywhere + your content is literally top notch. Keep up the grind you're a legend in the making
His other channel AustinCS clips has almost 84k
@@SmithCS Way better but all in all not a not if we're being honest
maybe because his channel is only 2 years old?
@@budgetking2591 You act like some people didn't blow up overnight
I really like what you ended up deducing about donk's success... my teammates i watched the finals with said similar things to what we've all been hearing, that he's just an insane aimer he alone is gonna destroy faze but no. I saw what you talked about, he's really good with his team specifically and they're all making this work for donk. Its actually a huge testament to how CS works and I hope more of the community comes to understand that
More demo reviews please! Some of your best content beside team matches imo
definitely more donk content would be appreciated
Thank you for being the first to analyse a donk demo with some interesting insights Austin. I believe that teams will have a hard time to figure out anti donk strats since he is playing so unpredictable, hence why no demo reviews really popped up yet. It's hard figuring this kid out and people are still trying. I actually hope to see a small Spirit era with the upcoming events. Underdog team that came out of nowhere with a legacy talent: Dope story in my books! would make pro scene interesting again for the next months to come. kudos austin and cheers from Germany :D
Seriously very good video Austin. Stuff like this really makes you understand how coordinated and calculated everything is that the pros do
i left you a comment awhile ago pretty sure u had maybe 1.4k, keep it up man your content is some of the best in cs2 ty
that is sick video thanks Austin , we need 2 more maps of donk ;), and you are very smart so its interesting to hear your opinion! that was crazy when donk pulled the same main strat on faze :D
I first caught your stuff when you were doing the quick smokes and things of the like, amazing that you're (still) doing stuff like this! Donk is just insane.
Can you do this same thing for the other maps of this grand final? Demo review content more often would be cool, nice video.
talking durring the slow mo was dope. always do this. i liked that alot
First time I come across you and I really love the explanation and commentary you've made
You’re honestly so GOATed for these. Thank you for providing aspiring players with crucial guidelines on how to improve
Incredible explanation, thank you for taking some time out of your day to make this video
This was an awesome video…and honestly…makes me even more excited to watch pro cs matches. Man this game is great
Lovely stuff Austin, i just accidentally found your videos again! KZhead stopped recommending them to me for some reason :(
I’m kinda new to cs so I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but how to you get the play/pause menu to pop up on replays? I was stuck for hours trying to figure it out while watching my own and kept having to restart from the beginning
hey i dont know hope it helps
shift f2
you didnt just google the answer? you're lost mate
first time i learned of donk, it was from a clip of him screaming to "sit down".. i think, i wasnt sure what he was saying, nor if he was a boy or a girl.. but he is talented, but that clip of him screaming to sit down to his opponents kinda became the first impression for me and you know how first impressions work so im a have to see more to have full respect for donk but the dude is talented
Love the reviews! HOpe you can analyze Zywoo as well
great overview, keep it up mate
i live by this quote... "how many times does something need to happen, to where it is not just a coincidence"
yes we need some more donk content. Nice video keep up the good work
how was the control window broken at 23:18 demo glitch?
Great demo review, you should review the other 2 maps as well
Great video! Would be very interesting to see the same kind of analysis of his game against Mouz on Mirage at the RMR, and hear your views on how and why he got countered there. I do think that Karrigan dropping, or at least dropping right at the hut a entrance, was definitely a mistake, because if there is anyone in the hut at that moment, it does not seem reasonable to expect to win a duel against them in most cases, imo. And just in general exposing yourself to 1vX duels when you have man advantage is not a very prudent thing to do. Remaining on top of the hut and forcing opponents to come out and get exposed to all sorts of different angles in order to kill you, makes much more sense. That also buys more time for your teammates’ rotations.
You sound a little like Morty during the ad and that made me giggle for a sec.
One thing you didn’t mention was donks movement in gun fights which I heard one other person comment on and show once in third person. Normally people would crouch spray are easily traded but something about the way donk does it seems to be different often times. He suggested donk crouch spams so he’s crouching and uncrouching generally making him harder to hit than someone simply crouch spraying.
aweseome breakdown man, really good stuff
haha great review! the donk effect is a meme already
can you please link the demo in your description?
Re the A site pathing, at 45:32 ish he walks out hut looking top hut and then flicks to heaven as soon as he goes into heavens angle. If heaven was further out he should be on donks minimap or damaged magixx. So if heaven isn't out on donks check, he can likely get an unpunished timing to back site and block heaven with molly. which he does, then peeks lower during molly, then goes to HE heaven as soon as molly is out. I guess they know faze patterns well enough that he doesn't care about second vent in that moment, cus yeah it's crazy to me he doesn't peek that after hut and just goes straight to back site. Idk if that's right but just my guess at the thought process
Great vid, ty for analysis.
one of the best informative channels for CS, keep it up man =)
51:36 His team on silo saw Broky pushing seconds ago hence the spam
more donk demos man pls 🔥
I was waiting for this😅 here, he is:))))
Thank you. Was a pleasure to watch you disect why he is so good. There was so much hype and did not understand why the hype. This demo review gave me so much understanding why he is the star player of spirit. Every team is looking the demos how can they stop this. 😮 Thank you austin.
donk
great informative review, been playing cs on and off for half my life and I really appreciate this analysis. +1 subscription :D
Great vid, great demo review, and not taking anything away from this video. I'm sure I can just check HLTV....but didn't Niko also get a 1.70 rating at a tier 1 event? I'm pretty sure Donk tied the record. Not saying that this feat was fucking historical and easily setting up for a rookie year that will never repeated again. But, just wanted to get that out there.
yeah he tied niko. but i think donk did it two years younger than niko
In todays HLTV episode they said Donk had a higher rating by 0.02 or something 😅 but Donk did it over more maps than Niko + the top 5 teams were missing back in 2017 New York.
2017 new york was a joke event.
this was one of the most entertaining demo reviews I've ever watched
austin is ready to teach donk a lesson!
You are an excellent communicator.
so... about the round 16.. hut to back of A Site decision.. can you please better explain the reason you thought this might be a misplay? because.. I just came back to CS, been playing for 6 days, havent played since CAL.. but that seemed obvious to me... we know they are defaulting 2 ramp, 1 A, 1mini, 1 Outside.. We get info from the frag as we begin the rush, Karrigan is ontop of hut. We have a teammate firing off a MAC10 to mini...Garage isnt getting to heaven that fast, and now its most likely, espicially with that much smoke down in A, your #2 ramp is gonna go to anchor B from potential quiet vent. and I would always assume Ramp1, is going to push lobby, or hold ramp. Why are you not assuming the 1 ontop the hut, is the heaven player? Begining of the rush, and ramp2 commonly going under vs oldschool style of CT nuke, where #2ramp, was always playing hell/heaven/outside. Lastly, before he takes the most damning angle i believe, karrigan kills the MAC10 teammate fighting towards mini, so he knows if he goes front of site route, he is fighting into a 2v1, potential 3v1 (if garage is close mini), with smokes and squeaky teammate dead... I dont think what you said of cutting hard right was ever a play there.. (although I do agree, most common thing to do when FULL HARD RUSH, is first one out hut hard right into front of site is proper, now off timings, you gain a potential man up on the mini fight, etc..) in no world does Ramp2, or Garage go heaven that quickly, and if they are there they should be screaming up that ladder and sound que'ing... this is always proper because they are down to 3 terrorists and havent traded yet, you dont run in 1v2 in that moment, you take what ground you can safely. Boom, teammates now have a safe entry into site through hut door, they throw util heaven, opens donk up and he peaks the ones squeaky side finally to try and trade up. Doesnt work, but that gameplay, to me, was crisp. In short: if he did what you said.. he opens himself up to more angles, and less chance his last 2 teammates can help him trade or do anything useful... he understands karrigan dropped off hut towards vent from mac10 teammate dying, he does most proper thing and takes back of site, and now holds heaven angle. this allows teammates to help open him up now, they come to hut door which they know is safe, throw util, and now they can enter and peak mini from both sides of site. The kid is smart. He has good game sense. Alot of respect for this kid, with all the duck spraying, getting vibes of a next HeatoN/ Potti / SpawN off him lol.
he has grown up playing cs from the age of 4 he has developed his muscle memory based on CS when ur a kid habbits are easier to develope and it becomes difficult as an adult to change habits so kudos to him
Best breakdown of Donk's playstyle I've seen so far. One thing though, Austin... Please stop smacking your lips every 2 seconds :D
Thank u for satisfying our minds i knew u where gonna make good donk content P.S. And the reason why donk nades early in connecter is siuhy, watch Donk’s twitch fpl vs Siuhy Senzu and Jackz last round last game 👍🏽
Love your reviews.
"I am not trying to glaze him"??????????? Hilarious.
how did he get the replays in game ?
It's SUPER important that at 58:45 you realize he got mollied off of hut too. No way he would want to eat that damage.
good job on the video bro 27k views. insane
Great review, thanks!
the great feeling of watching a demo or an austin vid and you go on to try some of this shit out in a pug just to get spinbotted against by 5 russians :D
Great analysis!
jesus every cs youtuber has a video of him now
This demo review is soooooooooo good
One thing people don't realize is that not only it's a new game, but also how new donk is to the cs scene. Considering his current performance and age, I am sure he will end up in the top 10 players for a long time. However, because he is new, pros don't know how he plays. They don't have enough information about him, to do their research, and optimize game strats. Even now, after Katowice, players have already caught on to his play style. You can see this in the RMRs. We will truly see how goated donk is in the upcoming major. However, I don't think we will see the same performance we saw during the Katowice ever again.
He's like the early Stewie2k with verry aggressive play style and still get away with it, but later getting countered by team play
Never seen before, i did that shit in CS 1.6 when i was 15, ofc back the the days we didn't have twitch, i didn't even know demos existed
More of these plz
awesome that was fun to watch thank you ^^
think he was trying to initiate the donk effect with that "pathing error" he swung to try and trade and quickly peripheral checked heaven after. The round seemed a bit doomed so go for the yolo I guess
was he good sick player in csgo he had 13k hours its like he came from nowhere but he had so many hours and he is 17 year old, how he played this game in csgo?
nah this shit is Donkin' Donuts with the amount of glaze in here
Good content just found you subbed
Insane video 💪🏻
Didn't know people in America called hell j hall. It makes sense to me that he cleared heaven after hearing Karrigan fall back towards squeaky on top hut, but should've done it once he was visible from heaven. Mini was smoked enough for the clear, the team was distracting enough for the clear.
In the end he literally killed karrigan, broky and frozen within 2 seconds in completely different angles.. As you said, teams need to step up their teamplay. With someone like donk on the server, you have to peek within the same second as a team or you get donked.
I feel like donk has the best scaling aim I have ever seen. What I mean by "scaling aim" is the ability to just strafe forward into angles with perfect crosshair placement while moving. He walks into places and it seems like his crosshair isn't even moving because its so perfectly in motion in tandem with his natural movement. The cruel part of it is if he is ever wrong and clears the wrong angle while scaling sites or whatever, he still has insane flicks that are bursty and often doesnt move an inch to far or close. Essentially making him just an unstoppable force, can just walk in everywhere and win.
thanks for the video!
Rain is a gremlin for eating that molly
I just started playing Counter-Strike again after 20 years. but is it possible to use a dma cheat in the Pro scene???
Haven't being watching much cs since cs2 dropped but did tune in to Kato. The game just looks better since the last update. But watching Donk has revitalized my love for this esport. Its like seeing Messi break onto the scene. And i don't think that's an understatement when the kid smashes Nikos 1.53 rating when i think it was. Which some thought would never be broken. But this was at Kato against a much more polished CS scene at his first LAN. This kid needs documenting, cause if he keeps control of his mental this could be something we have never seen before. For 17 his crosshair placement and understanding of timings, its not calculated like Nikos or Ropz it seems more innate if that's the right word. I guess what I'm trying to say is we more demos!!!
Donk Rules!
otherworldly talent
best content, love you bby
that smoke spam reminds me of n0thing vs redcode on nuke :D
donk has the fastest rotates in the game lol it's like he teleports
dude just doesn't know that shift button exists 😂
Excellent and fascinating analysis from a handsome man! If you style that hair and beard you'd be a 10 and Donk our socks off!
he is controlling the contact is a best description of this demos
Great analysis
More Donking content pls
Great vid plz make more
Do more demo reviews of different players
Great demo reviews
45:50 magixx checked heaven from hut, they had a molly on backside that nobody stepped on. Going the ''wrong'' way was probably his safest option for him. Donk is gifted in this game, hope to see a lot more from him. Had no clue who he was before this match and was sure Faze would destroy team spirit 😂
31:00 Yes actually Insane
09:00 outside smoke kills on nuke ... 100% wh ^^
8:53 i woulda fuckin alt f4'd my browser if i saw this live
Is 5 years a long time these days for CS? I’m getting old.. 😢
Also there is no way we can really know if hes going to be that that good only time will tell He is full of confidence at the moment something could break his confidence Ill believe it when i see it with longevity if he really is him.
