As we start a new era with Counter-Strike 2, we remember the golden years of CS:GO and it's heroes.
The past 10 years have taken us from bedrooms to sold out arenas. But how did this all come to be?
A journey that began all the way back in 2012 with the release of Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

i'm not crying you're crying
C9 was so high on adderall during that tournament xd
we're all crying
GOATders always spitting facts

We all are crying now
Pasha naming his dogs Famas & Negev is hilarious
That's so pasha
you are not my friend
Pasha is overrated player you know remember 16-0 against Kinguin
@@GodOfCS yeah number 3 player of 2014 says that hes overrated xd
i named my cat negev because of him
The moment when Dupreeh talked about the photo of him and his dad. Im not crying, you are crying.
Im not crying, you are crying
Im really glad for dupreeh that he was able to make his dad proud. I lost my mum to cancer aswell in 2014, i was only 16 at the time. It really ruins everything around you to the point where you dont even want to do the things that you usually adore and love. It makes you angry, sad, hopeless.. Dupreeh can be very proud of himself for not giving up during these heavy times and also for keeping his dad in the best memory💚
I also recommend to see Carmac's speech at Katowice 2019 opening when he mentioned it. I'm not crying, you are crying.
I think that Kscerato's look at Fallen tells how much importance he has for all the brazilian scene.
Yesss sir
Red Bull just casually dropping the most epic Counter-Strike MOVIE of all time
... right behind: a gamers day
honestly, yes
Hell yeah, with a legend characters!
Wasn't that casual tho was it?
@@StephNuggs it was, redbull has not a lot to do with CS, they just dropped this outta nowhere

The way he says psychologist is priceless 😂
the 4:3 aspect ratio made this extra nostalgic 🥺
Yeah, i thought the same. What a journey dude

I'm just 22 but realizing I share all these memories since 2015 makes me feel old, but in a good, nostalgic way. Thank you.
Eyyy, same age as me. I started with cs source when I was 8 years old and swapped to csgo when I got better computer in 2015. 13k hours since. first ever mm rank gnm. Month later lem, another month ge and I've been playing faceit since then making it all the way to fpl in 2018-2019. CS is more than game to me. It's 80% of my life ♥
that's exactly how i feel about it i turn 23 in july and i know i'm not old but the nostalgia makes you feel aged in a fun memorable way.
I'm 37, grew up playing around the same time 1.6 came out. The pro scene and all of these matches were so fun to witness. This video is extremely nostalgic and I love it.

I remember a guardian flick
is it me or is device a zero cultural impact player like u see it at the end of the game "oh wow device has 4 majors" but u can never remember them. can u remember a single device kill ? but try guardian...u can see the flick i remember a guardian flick.
I remember a vital csgo video
still got more money than guardian@@Gabrielnfs
@@Gabrielnfswell, I do remember his defense at B inf. But KennyS is just insane how many I can remember. Stuck in the site incident, pushing down Banana 5K, flick at B Apps against NiP, running up apps and flick Dupreeh. And many more.
@@oneonone8855 KennyS was a joy to watch indeed
The Pasha / Olofmeister friendship is like the beautiful core of what CSGO was for me! 💛 That just unexplainable bond with initially just someone you found over the internet, playing. A strong comradery that's crossing over borders, bridges and rivalry.
Played CS since I was was 11 (I'm 34 now, quit playing when I was 24) literally the best times of my life, the LAN parties, getting a drink from the blue BAWLS fridge, chatting with groups of players at 2am smoking cigs in the front of Cyberglobe cafe. CS was the most passionate I've ever been about anything. Not a care in the world, just good times. Thanks for this masterpiece.
very nice
new upload when ?
omg KennyS???!
u never sleep
its him man its him , SupersituMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM we hawttttttt
is me man is me
In Brazil, Fallen is a pop star. Every Brazilian who plays CS knows the importance of this guy and that if it weren't for him we would never be able to win the major twice. Thank you for everything, teacher! FALLEN ❤

damn, as a brazilian, it brought tears to my eyes .. thank you Fallen S2 (love you pasha)

this age of csgo is one of those things i've tried explaining to people before but can never truly encapsulate the crazy feeling of experiencing it. you just had to be there.
Don't normally cry watching documentaries about video games... but this game is something else ❤
When I was feeling bad I put on my headset and played CS:GO, when I was feeling good I put on my headset and played CS:GO. When I was depressed, I put on my headset and played CS:GO. Thanks for everything CS:GO! f0rest is the one and only GOAT, forever!

But where is the onetap machine? no.. srsly?
@@Larxxonbeatz scream is awesome, sadly it's hard to compile every player, we view his playstyle with nostalgia but on the grand scheme of things, there were and are better players, but he's 100% an awesome personality and would be great to see him in this video. He meant as much as kennyS is to awpers to ak-47 players
@@Larxxonbeatz I expected a couple of minutes on the story of Zeus too but yeah, kinda hard to feature everybody, 10 years of history there are a lot of players and events to cover!
Pasha is love, Pasha is life. The way he is, omlets for Valentines, always humble it's just briliant. One day when i just split with my girlfriend after 3 years i was really sad, i saw Pasha comming to mall with his wife - she was pregnant for a first time I remember. i smiled but after all i was not in a mood to even bother him, then suddenly he asked me about shopping, shake my hand and greet good day. He didnt even know how happy he made me that day. Pasha - thank you!
Can’t believe this video was an hour and 30 minutes long, it flew by like it was 10 minutes. Absolute masterpiece.
One of the best CS videos I've ever seen.
Without a shadow of a doubt.
Is xboxahoy doing the voice over??
Red Bull, how many legends do you want in your video ? Red Bull: yes
This video is huge for me, csgo was my life for years, this brings back so much memories and I can remember everything like it was yesterday because I was so engrossed in the majors. The game was amazing, and it’s almost like it rewarded me for the 7000 hours I put into it and attending 4 majors because I found one of my Smurf accounts that had 450k worth of Katowice capsules and stickers on it, so it set me up for life. I owe everything to the game. Thank you for this video❤
450k?!?!?! be careful with it man!
@pascal8733 for sure, it couldn't have come at a better time. Me and fiance just bought our first home and had a newborn baby so we were struggling a little bit. Then to be mortgage/debt free a year later from kato capsules and stickers I bought for pennies and forgot about because I'd completed the set of holos I wanted so I had no use for the remainders. It was a crazy experience
@@SuperTronGaming thats so great to hear.
Thank you for this. Made the hair on the back of my neck stand up. CS is beautiful.
Shox explaining the olof boost from his teams pov is hilarious
It actually bought tears to my eyes man, this damn game is the best fps ever made. 10 years went by and here's to 10 more. Thank you for everything CSGO and thank you Valve for for bringing this game to life.
CS is truly the only constant in life. I've gone to university, had jobs, had relationships, different friends, and different cities. The only thing that always remains constant is this wonderful game. It truly is heartwarming seeing this video and comments like these ❤
CS:GO is gone. Memories will stay.
@@Tib1010i feel that brotherr
I started playing CSGO when I was 13 years old, now im 23. And damn I was tearing up when I watched this Video... Thank you redbull for one of the best CSGO videos ever created ❤
From 12 years old to now 35, it's been an incredible road. Thank you CS GO. All the best! Brazilian Fan (Salve Cogu! Gaules! and of course Gabriel, the name of my son!).
Good to see some Brazilians know their history, Cogu were the first Brazilian star, and arguably the best awp'er of 1.6
“are Red Bulls only for the commercials” love they snuck that in last second
Beautiful moments only a few of us will remember forever 💙

Cloud9 was ass in cs go, until 2018. So good comeback in the major final.
@@scolder846 they wernt ass, there were a great team, they had their sturggles as they all did. but i remember many close matches with these guys
Legwndary Team
the epic closing : "Are those red bull actually for the commercials, or you can actually drink them???" the background music is making me chill all over!damn what a masterpiece! waiting for the next era
I'll probably show this video to my children and show why a game brought so many emotions to me, smiles and tears, the most curious thing is that I barely played CSGO because I never had the chance to play it due to difficulties, but it has an absurd importance for me, it's practically 12 years of my life, which I followed and saw reach the level it is today, this video is a tribute to everyone who loves this game, thank you red Bull and thank you csgo.
"I'm not crying, you're crying." You did CSGO justice. I legitimately cried at the memories. Thanks, Red Bull Gaming. You created a masterpiece that I will watch again.
You are not my friend, you are my brother my friend.
I was looking for this😂❤
I'm 24 now, looking this video hurt but in the same time i feel joy, watching all those moments i grew up with, time goes so fast i don't even realize, i'm young but cs go have been such a big part of my life since i'm 15 yo, so many greats memories at my level and watching theirs is unbelievable, they are all legends, they have contributed to make esport bigger and bigger every year so that our community get one day the recognition we deserve, I say thanks you to them, thanks for you'r sacrifice when you'r future was dark. You've show us the way, it's our time to carry the flame. Thanks you legends.

HObbit winning krakow major will forever be the most heartwarming moment for me.
as a Brazilian, I disagree
@@matheusc.5839 now I know why brazilian crowds are full of idiots lmao
crazy that they didn't put that in, the whole backstory with that Gambit roster was insane. Sad that they left it out :/
@@matheusc.5839Brazilians, trash fans anyways 😂
Of course they left that out
Pasha named his dogs NEGEV and FAMAS 🤣 Absolute legend
I lived all these moments in my room in my humble home in Brazil and I cry because I know that these happy moments might not happen again and the responsibilities of adult life won't let me live them again
Fallen is an Idol for us Brazillians. I'm thankfull to be alive in the same era that he showed us that Brazil can be great in CS. Thank you for everything Professor! ACREDITA PROFESSOR! ACREDITA!
What? Fallen didn't do that? Cogu did that almost 10 years before Fallen won his first major.
@@AndersRDH Cogu is great, another Brazillian Idol, but Fallen is more important for us.
having HenryG to narate all the story with his type of voices is really great.... Thanks for everything, CS:GO !!!
not often i watch 1.5 hour youtube videos. i watched this start to end. good bye csgo...
God I swear I loved that old virtus.plow team. I almost cried during the part when they talk about their major victory. Neo is the goat of cs and papa biceps is such a nice dude. Memories fr fr
I think there still is like an hour or so of things that were left out and this montage could had been longer. Excellent documentary. Best I've seen yet.
This is truly a love letter to CS:GO
Locked in! 💯
No, u guys are locked out 😂
lmfao and the liquid pfp too@@williamcolgate5708

Lock in a better roster
😂 Damn yall dont even deserve this hate XDDDD
It's beautifully made. For a fps game, the pace of this movie is quite opposite. But that thing makes this so unique, and it's just beautiful. Loved every second of it.
Like Shox said, cant believe how fast time has passed.. 10 years could feel like yesterday. Very good, very emotional.
Goosebumps, tears, all the emotions
Yep
10 years I'll back to watch this again.
Show this to anyone who says it's just a game. Amazing work, such beautiful memories.

Can i join BIG im good player

Get Right, Olofmeister, KennyS, Pronax, PashaBiceps and Steel Are my all time favorite players that are now retired or inactive. Absolute LEGENDS
Olof and Steel didn’t OFFICIALLY retire yet
@@maverick_en Sorry, I guess olof is inactive and steel went to valorant (forcibly!)
Steele is a bag of shit, dude ruined brax's career, one of the most promising rising stars of the time, and hasn't stopped crying about his own career since.
This is the best Counter strike movie I've seen! Even though I only started following the scene in late 2018, this made feel like I was following it all along. Congratulations Red Bull for this masterpiece!
Im crying literally....more than 20 years playing since 1'6 its more than a half Life. Thanks for this video😢❤❤❤
The tribute to all these legends it was very beautiful, it means a lot not only to me but to all Brazilians what Fallen did for our region... a legend.

CSGO will always hold such a special place in my heart. The definition of "You just had to be there".
This was incredible. I was heavily into csgo during the glory years and this brought me back to so many amazing memories.
Been playing these game since 2005 on lan houses with my friends and now with 31 yo watching these memories, such an emotional moment to remember everything. THANKS FOR EVERYTHING COUNTER STRIKE.
Insane production. Thank you guys. Nice to see all the CS legends being a part of this video! CSGO will always be missed. Here's to more legendary moments!
PASHA : Put smoke, waiting waiting and BOOOM
PASHA: what the hell is going on? they got psyholog, in the team. the girl! Dude is a living legend and the heart of CSGO.
@@illastration1i died when he was talking about the "psyholog" hahahahahahahahahah. I love this man so much
insane production please more memories videos like this
This video needs to be watched by all ex and current counter strike players and streamers
Verkkars ❤️ Red Bull
There's a lot of CS:GO moments I keep remembering and thinking of- "Doesn't hit the no scope, doesn't hit the pistol", "But look at the time", Na'Vi in Stockholm, and now it's dupreeh, 5 time record major winner holding his child and looking to the sky after winning the final CS:GO major. In just 10 years this game has produced absolute history, art, theater and memories.
That's incredible unbelievably well made and good. Thank you for this. It's so nice to be part of this community since the beginning of Counter-Strike.
Can’t believe I waited until now to find the time and watch this thinking it was a bit long. Now, tears and a wish it was even longer. What a great song for CSGO. What a blast reliving all those memories and emotions. Thank you Counter Strike. Thank you Red Bull. Thank you to everyone involved in the teams, events, crowds, casters, organizers, players and community. What a life! ❤
What epic praise from Pasha for KennyS. Don't think he'll ever get a bigger compliment than this one.
1:27:28 HAHAHA best clip in the whole video. I'm so happy red bull included this. Great video. Thank you counter strike.
This brought up memories, not only of the best fps, but the events, orgs, players, and other scenes all coming up together. A better time for all esports. I miss when devs cared for their consumers
I just want you guys to know that this was directed by Tom Newman - the COD4 legend himself. D1ablo, I remember your days from Reason Gaming. Thank you for this wonderful documentary, even though I joined CS:GO pretty late, cod4 promod will always have a special place in my heart as my favorite gaming time ever. I'm glad that you still are in the industry. Chapeau bas!
damn wtf an hr and a half of high quality documentary? This is incredible
Ahhh. Take me back to 2015. I’d give anything.
What a nice trip down memory lane. All those iconic moments from Majors, the "insights" of the players everyone looked up to - amazing. Found myself crying more than once. Thank you for this amazing time capsule.
YOU ARE MY BROTHER MY FRIEND!!!!! You better believe I gambled on that guy. Pretty sure I won every time. God bless and thanks for showing something fun. Remember all things for Gods glory!
I absolutely loved every second of these almost 90 minutes of pure nostalgia and appreciation. I gotta admit I felt a little sad watching it. I’ve been around CS since 1.0b, I’ve always had high hopes and wanted to be a pro player so much. Watching n0thing take his box of memories out and all them player passes and literal artifacts like pins etc. I had found myself literally out of breath, it crushed me. It was a different time, parents issues, society thinking of gamers as lazy drug addicts, I was never meant to succeed. And I take it. It hurts, sure but I’ll accept the fact like each and every one of us had to at some point in life. I’m 35, I have the adult life now and just grind some CS in the evenings chasing the high that Counter strike feeds me with for so long. How fast it all flew by though is unbelievable. I know I’m probably gonna stick for life around this game. That is unless Valve really doesn’t care about the cheaters as the situation now has never been worse and it’s becoming unplayable competitively.
Fantastic production. You truly managed to include many emotional memories that shaped eSports in general. I got goosebumps all over. Thank you to all the legends that have rised, it's great to see they're still doing better than ever.
Also a huge thanks to HLTV for always being present in the scene and capturing these moments.
Top 3 CSGO videos of all time, well done Redbull 🙏 from watching Checo, to soapbox, and then this fantastic documentary ❤
Red bull gaming pls make part 2 of this! Thank you
We really need a part two of this! Absolute masterpiece
I can't, I'm just speechless. It feels so fkin, so good.
I remember a GuardiaN speech
from 1.5 to CS2 ... what a ride!! I enjoy every minute ingame! Thanks for all guys! LEGENDS!
Having not seen the replay but still being able to speak to the clips live is insane by Olof - seared into memory.
One of the best Counter-Strike videos ever made ❤ The moment C9 won ELEAGUE Major Boston 2018 gives me chills to this day.
This is without doubt the best CS video ever made, the emotions you feel as someone who watched all of this unfold with the years is just unexplainable, to whoever made this video thank you!
i've never played this game but i've watched almost all the majors in the past 5-6 years some of the best scenes i've witnessed thank you CS-GO and goodbye
So much nostalgia ❤
Man, being at the Boston major was literally a life changing experience. Going to CS events has brought me so many friends and opened up so many opportunities, helped me through a lot of tough times, given me something to do when I'm alone, and had nothing but a positive experience. I've been watching and playing CS since the early C9 days and I have no intention of ever stopping.
Such a lovely video, hopefully there's a second part
Glad to have gotten to experience this era right from the start. So many memorable times that I have forgotten about geez.
CS:GO was a masterpiece created through decades of passion and competition. What I would give to relive 2016-2017 cs
Absolute Cinema 🙌
This is absolutely amazing guys thanks to all those who took the time to make this
Thank you. Thank you Henry. Thank you anyone involved in this. Thank you Counter-Strike.Thank you...
This is a masterpiece. HenryG and the production team gave this game and era the love letter it deserved. I know we can never go back to this but I'll always miss those golden years. The talent pool, the player personalities, the maps and the game, all in such a beautiful state that gave us the most entertaining competition I've ever watched.
