austintownley's video: Top 10 Awpers in CS History 5-1 HD

Part One ( -6): http://youtu.be/CZOZZwoW5zs Top 10 Awpers in CS History ( -1) Created by Austin Townley Released: November 29, 2012 Special thanks to Josh Geha, and the countless number of people I consulted with to make this list as accurate and unbiased as possible. As with any list of this sort, there are endless opinions and variations of rankings. If your personal favorite wasn't , don't sweat. I welcome your constructive feedback or personal rankings, and more so truly thrive on them as those discussions are the driving force behind my videos. *** SPOILERS *** Additional notes. Cogu - Truly one of the most gifted players of all time. Unfortunately for his ranking, he's only won one major event, ESWC 2006, while failing to place in most others. I don't mean to offend Brazilian fans or players when I say this, but could you imagine this monster on any of the top teams from the last generation. Say Pentagram, SK or Fnatic? Scary. Shaguar - One of the most successful early era careers of all time, and a fan favorite due to his movies and personality. While he was at times inconsistent, his ability to perform at the latest stages of the biggest tournaments conceal the few faults in his play. Dsn - He was never as regarded as Walle or Shaguar in terms of explosiveness, yet all of a sudden we can look back on his career and find it's littered with absolutely dominating, godlike rounds and performances. While he played at the upper echelons of the Swedish scene for some time prior, he made waves with his performance against 3D at CPL Summer 2004, followed by a true breakout at CPL Winter 2004 with Begrip on his way to a 4th place finish. Perhaps the most admirable quality of Dsn is how consistent he was during so many years at the very top. fRoD - Back when Complexity went on a run of great performances between late 2004 to late 2006, almost all of them were fueled by fRoD's AWP. I can't honestly remember a game where he wasn't on point, delivering breathtaking shots and rounds. When this video began development in 2010, he was not only my choice for but the consensus top pick among those I discuss these rankings with. He transitioned back to 1.6 with great success in EG after playing CS:S in CGS, and through no fault of his own slips down a spot to make room for . Markeloff - Over the last four years Markeloff has dominated on such an outrageous level he can safely be considered one of the ten best players in CS History. While fRod maintained the position in the early stages of development for this video, over the last year it had become unanimous, between myself and every single individual I consult with, that Markeloff is the best AWPer in CS history. The ultimate combination of shotmaking ability, domination, consistency and success. Here's hoping we get to watch him play 1.6 at least once more before the game fades away entirely.
