It’s been one hell of a year for Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. This video by Peter Vallsten highlights 10 of the best Counter-Strike: Global Offensive pro plays of the year.
There is, needless to say, some crazy stuff in there. It’s a great watch even if you’re not into Counter-Strike, simply because these players pull of such preposterous shots and turnarounds that anyone can parse them, on some level.
In a year that saw CS:GO both ascend to unforeseen heights as an eSport and sink to new lows of cheater-ly misconduct, it’s nice to have something that commemorates the moments most worthy of gnawed nails and exploded hearts. Some of the teams involved might now be cast in a dubious light (please stop digging your hole deeper, Fnatic), but you can’t deny that it’s been a damn eventful year.
Here’s hoping for a better (and less unsportsmanlike) 2015. Play on.
Obviously this video is far from definitive. What were your favourite Counter-Strike moments of the year?
