f0rest vs Neo
2012-10-18 09:02
This debate by all means one of the hottest debates in the history of cs apart from “Who is the best player?” and “Who is the best awper”. I’m going to give my frivolous thoughts on this issue.

The first demo that I watched was 3D vs col and I instantly liked the way Sievers played. The next demos were of VPs. It was a few weeks later when I first saw fnatic vs VP. From the first glance I liked Archi’s game. I didn’t notice f0rest for a very long time. Only after few tournaments when I realized how awesome Patrick was. Henceforth my all time favorite players were Archi(1) and f0rest(2). Neo’s star shined in WCG, the tournament that fnatic failed to win. Since then Neo was the most dominant player in terms of victories in major tournaments.
I know it is pretty biased thing to say but for me the secret of this team(g5) was about other teams playing badly. When fnatic, mtw and NaVi were in their prime g5 couldn’t touch them constantly. MTW in this term was the best since they dominated the whole year in fashion. Fnatic were #1 the whole year but at the end of 2009 they had issues with Gux and team morale wasn’t high(my thoughts). NaVi is a special case.
In 2010 they simply were the best. After a hugely successful year the whole team confessed that team motivation is not as high as in 2010 that is the reason why they didn’t destroy everything they saw.

I’m not denying the fact that g5 is the best team in the history of CS in terms of titles. But I’m saying that g5 shined when other teams were weaker than in their prime time. Prime time(NaVi, fnatic, mtw) > prime time(g5). ONLY MY THOUGHTS. NO FLAMING PLZ!

But it is not what a blog was initially planned to discus.

Coming to f0rest vs Neo.
f0rest is the most entertaining player in the World. His raw skill is second to none. Number of clips and movies about him are countless. When he wants to win badly he probably will win. It is all about motivation. The problem with f0rest is that he wasn’t consistent in terms motivation therefore his peak wasn’t reached as frequently as Neo’s.
But Neo isn’t any worse than f0rest. In fact he is more consistent. I think the reason behind it was the fact he was the only mad-fragger in his team. Probably he felt pressure to kill since the whole team worked on him. F0rest didn’t have to do so because he had Gux and GeT_RiGhT.
I myself judge players based on their consistency. I can’t base my judgment by comparing peak form because in this case zet would probably be equal to them both. Neo was more consistent than f0rest but f0rest’s raw skill is more deadly. Besides Neo’s style is just impeccable because it is hard to read him whilst f0rest is very aggressive. Aggression is easier to predict. Partly because of his aggression that he attracted so many people since it is fun to watch him running and killing.

Therefore I think that in general Neo>f0rest but in prime time f0rest>all.

Thx for reading. This is my last blog since I’m switching to dota2 )))
For me f0rest was more spectacular but NEo was more consistent champion

why no one ever mentions that organisations/gaming things?
Neo and g5 won like 2-3 big cups while being without organisation with BIIIIG pressure, imagine paying and fixing all the hotels by your own (instead of focusing on training only), imagine your pressure if you NEED to be top3-5 to at least cover the money which was spent on the trip to the cup, they had sooo many problems with organisations - i bet half of pro Swedish players would give up at that points (for example after loosing organisation 3rd time before biggest tournament in the year), they never gave up and always came out with happy ending from that 'drama' stories which made the wins more epic.

ps. about clips - i love both players, but neo got loooooads of clips (im talking even about those 1vs2, not only 1vs5 etc) which were giving final wins, its hard to find 'tournament winning action' by forest while neo did that a lot of times, mostly staying last man alive - you can imagine how epic it is to see him finnishing the tourneys with some clip, and then they are grabbing each other and cheering with some Polish friends/journalists because they hadnt any manager/orga in the most important time...
2012-10-18 20:27:12
2 your lower part of coment.

Imagine that neo took last round 1x4 team win 16:14 nice? But nothing else special 'not his best performance' like 19:14 score.
Imagine f0rest's team win 16:14 f0rest make nothing impressive too just in almost every round 1-3 kills end got score like 33:10.
Like mehh nothing epic he died last round. Don't make aces but he done the most damage what help get those rounds.

NEO for sure had the more succes with the so called "major" tournaments. But if you look at it with a more realistic approach - pretty much every tournament (such as) GG, eStars, WEM, DH, different IEM-cups/-EU and so on, arbalets, the list goes on. Yeah, where practicly every topteam attended should be considered as a "major" when it comes down to the team vs team prestigue.
Then with that in mind and when on fire - f0rest along with his most unique and dominating playstyle stood out the most and displayed the highest skillcap ever.
Plus he is the player that won absolutly the most prizemoney in history of Counter-Strike. When it comes to consistency NEO prolly have the slight better advantage, BUT Only if you strictly reference top1-places from "the majors".

There are many, many reasons why f0rest should be considered as top1-player of all time. NEO is also an alltime worldclass-player, but for me like many others he is second
2012-10-19 01:15:28
neo is neo, forest is forest do not compare them, they play unique style comparable for others. actually many players did some great game but they can`t do it consistent like forest and neo.

he played for more than 3years in top5 teams in the world (and was also good before, but uknown out of denmark that much)

I think the difference between their consistencies is due to Neo's average sensitivity and f0rest's high sensitivity. That's also the reason why f0rest is simply the best when he can handle his game.
2012-10-18 21:15:36
f0rest easy

f0rest is da best in da world. :)
2012-10-18 09:28:38
You know it is like Bob Beamon's jump. It is magnificent but it is all we remember about Bob Beamon. It doesn't mean that he is the greates jumper. If he repeated that just several times or exceeded he no doubt would be dubbed "The best jumper of all times". Can't compare because one played very well several tournaments. Need to focus on general performance. f0rest is no worse than Neo but less consistent.
2012-10-18 09:29:42
f0rest , f0rest , f0rest of course!!!

both are lvl above all players
f0rest's aim is better and he is more aggressive but NEO is more consistent and unpredictable

Actually in my opinion Neo has the most entertaining style and probably most of people will agree with me. Am I right?
2012-10-18 11:34:18
f0rest is the only player I've ever watched that I've thought wow this guy is actually 10x better than anyone else so I'll go with him.
2012-10-18 11:34:19
swedish trolling hard
2012-10-18 14:36:06
? Neo gets the kills and moves well but f0rest on form just looks way better.
2012-10-18 15:06:40
way better than who? lol. forest is fucking overrated. forest isnt even top1 in sweden. in terms of individual skill moddii is better than forest, and neo is above everyone. imagine forest playing for esc/fx/mym etc instead of neo.they wouldnt win so many events like they did with neo. forest have a good fanbase, that's why some ppl (mostly swedes, like you) are trolling about forest here.
2012-10-18 16:06:09
lawl what? :D f0rest has been top1 in sweden since 2007 (around that)...

This is like Ronaldo vs Messi...

They tow are the bests in the world, but sooooooo different. The way of play, the movements, etc etc.

Personally: f0rest. Why? just cause i always "follow" his career. BUT Neo is equal to f0rest

f0rest/Neo>all...

how good are you depends on how much you won, but...

f0rest is like Cristiano making his job really good i would like to say outstanding, making scores, etc

oEN from the other site is like MESSI, unbelievable each time he SHOT bullet . Each movement, jump, shot. Just see his movement.
Astonishing is choosing correct name by him even before knowing that he really can manipulate the MATRIX of CS1.6 in REAL

"I think the reason behind it was the fact he was the only mad-fragger in his team. "

I find interesting how people underestimate NEO's teammates, specially TaZ, that never gets the credit he deserves
2012-10-18 16:25:02
+1
2012-10-18 16:50:07
TaZ is really good, but loord.. kuben.. i mean, they're not even close to their level, but it's the best they can get in poland (i think), and they have been playing together for so long so the teamplay probably covers the skill gap.
2012-10-18 16:51:57
Yeah, that's why I quoted TaZ, he's such a great player but it seems like nobody see it.

About the others, yes, I also think they're FAR FAR from Neo and Taz's skills, I said that specially thinking about TaZ that for me is the really underrated player in G5
2012-10-18 17:38:15
#89 and if you could let kuben/loord/taz/luq/pasha madfragging in the beggining of 2005/2006 they could frag like beasts too, but all the time they played together, their roles are different from NEO's role, NEO has never been IGL etc. he mainly cares about fragging and giving informations if he dies

people who think more about this than normal hltv users know its dependent on who you let fragging and how many years he plays this role, for example taz has always been IGL of PGS/MYM, when kuben became strat caller, taz became fragging so much more, and now since 2008/2009 he became fucking beast in some moments
2012-10-18 18:02:44
Yeah, I know, but people use to praise the madfraggers(not saying NEO is not the best of the team, obviously he is and I also think he's the best player of all time).

The thing in G5 is the teamwork, everybody has an important role and everybody do it very well, that's why they've been doing great for so long. But people only see Neo, and it's sad
2012-10-18 18:07:14
indeed, people see only who is fragging a lot, without his teammates NEO couldn't even do 3 kills in a row I guess, they have never received the credit they deserved
2012-10-18 18:09:45
well, NEO in the beggining of Pentagram.CNN (2004-2005) said for his teammates that he wanna keep everything in his shoulders, luq loord taz and kuben/motyw have always given him opportunity to do everything and thats remained to nowadays, NEO has always felt he can carry every team he plays with and his teammates know that too, they are supporting him a lot by doing perfect flashes, smokes, giving him everything he wants to kill as many opponents as he can, it was his choise

I think u felt the different between NEO in ESC and NEO in p2p.ru, he hasn't had support with russians and he was terrible in some moments, but in ESC most of the times he is on top of the table, why? I've said why

2012-10-18 17:55:13
i wouldn't say kuben or loord are not even close to neos/taz level, it's how ppl underestimate them and ofc, their teamplay can be the main factor to be so good as a team, but remember, they are able to take down best raw skill players since 2005 when they showed themselves internationally the first time and even though we love players who can run and shot headshots like f0rest or edward, these ones are not much better than players like loord, kuben, ceh9 etc.

i would say, that their raw skills are weaker, but talking overall about skill (even excluding the teamplay abilities), they are not "even not close" to some players

i'm not sure if it's true, but someone posted once here, that neo said "loord is the best player in our team, as he can do his work better than anyone can do ones work"

2012-10-18 18:18:00
why are you replying to me in every thread? :)

cogu is like heaton, good because of bad competition at the time
2012-10-18 18:30:26
hahah yeah fnatic,PGS,roccat,SK,NiP

bad competition



xD
2012-10-18 20:18:30
and how good very players at that time compared to now? if cogu played 09-12 he wouldnt even be top30 in the hltv statistics
2012-10-18 22:45:10
ROFL pls dont kidding me
2012-10-18 22:48:12
he wasnt as good as you think :) no chance vs todays top awpers
2012-10-18 23:06:33
n if those players from 09-12 playd in cogus days(2006-2007 which they did) they wudnt be top 30

ur arugment is invalid son
2012-10-19 01:11:41
wht u mean bad competition at the time? u cant compare ppl from diffrent timeline to nowdays if i remember correctly many of those players such az f0rest(begrip2005),edward(VP05),zeus(VP05),gtr(avgsemipro) were still around back then n were under avg to watch, 4years later after the oldskool top players lost motive n quit the young n upcoming players came about
2012-10-19 01:09:57
neo was the best and f0rest wasn't even close to him
2012-10-18 18:33:19
expert opinion ofc

when f0rest had his best day, nobody could stop him, when neo had his best day, nobody could stop him. its actually that simple. who is more consistent? im not sure, just like everybody else here. i really dont think people remember all matches neo and forest played since 2005. so unlike the rest of you, im not gonna talk out of my ass
2012-10-18 18:36:53
Swedes don't accept the truth, see the comments in fragbite that people saying even zet was better than neo. hahah
2012-10-18 18:42:18
zet at his prime was the best player at that moment. Sorry

I like neo, but hey.. Sweden has had alot of top players, am I not allowed to speak good about them? Fucking troll. And if you can read, I didnt say that f0rest is better than neo, nor did I say the opposite
2012-10-18 18:43:47
okokok
2012-10-18 18:54:12
and for your information the best player for me is Edward
2012-10-18 19:10:45
you say now right? with only fnatic and na'vi in 1.6... because he wasn't even in 2010.
2012-10-18 19:31:15
neo always domd however for f0rest player from 2004 struggled badly vs SK05 mibr(ESWC) etc

so NEO overall > f0rest

SpawN entertained me the most, before dropping level after 2005 and later. Zet peak was monstrous! Neo is my overall best player ever together with cogu and forest. Forest aim is what impress me, tap tap tap 3 enemies killed in 3 totally different positions, and these is pro players. amazing but neo consistent and also amazing moments too, a few even impossible situaions he does.

f0rest better time VS. neo better time


f0rest Win :D

god damn, these two are the best, respect them!
2012-10-18 20:31:17
Idk, to be honest, I like f0rest playing style, when I watch NEO's demos I see he is good, but what f0rest does it's just amazing. But also I have to say that Neo is the player that step up in important matches, finals, clutches, etc. They're both equally important in cs history.
And an "honor mention" to Zet, this guy in 2006 was the perfect player.

trace is awesome too... until he joined mTw he was an upcoming talent performing always good... and when he joined mTw he proved himself to all cscene i think he is the most consistent player ever along with markeloff and neo... and he can clearly fight with neo and f0rest.. but since f0rest and neo was destroying before in topteams its more easy for them.. btw I agree with the rest u said
2012-10-18 21:31:30
Forest fucking betraider no lifer only goes where the money goes fucking bitch! NEO gets my vote, he actually stayed to the end.
2012-10-18 21:45:48
Moron, CS 1.6 has no future deal with it.
What could he do? Be a cleaner at KFC?
2012-10-18 22:31:36
neo without any doubt
2012-10-18 21:52:59
NEO EASY!!
2012-10-18 21:59:48
well said, i prefer f0rest
2012-10-18 22:10:11
NEO best, CS Is team-play not only aim.
2012-10-18 22:17:23
Most fluid movement ever with perfect natural born aim tecnique.

Beautyful CS-player with highest skillcap when on fire - totally unmatched.

Just please stop with "f0rest is the best when he plays the best he can". That's so relative and definitely subjective. It is relative because every player has his ups and downs, and nowadays you have so many top players who can win games by their own, for example MODDII, trace, TAZ, Xizt, Edward, markeloff etc.. You remember HIS form because of two reasons:
1st because he is f0rest
2nd because YOU THINK that he's incosistent, even though it's not true
IMO Neo is the best player ever and f0rest is the only player who is close to him, so close that you can turn debates like this and write thousand of articles in which you'll write why is one player better than the other and it'll never come to the end. I personally think that Neo has done more for his team over these years than f0rest done for his and that's the reason why I think he is overall better than him and that's the reason why I cheered for him and his team over these years.

I have seen both have good tapping skill. I have seen many times forest kill neo, neo kill forest. Both are same or both teams wouldnt have won so many tourneys. :).

neo - polish man
f0rest - semi swed, semi pole (polish mother)
Poland strong ...
2012-10-19 22:51:06
count every duel neo vs. f0rest and write a result
in other hand you can make a movie
2012-10-19 23:09:49
its very clear that forest has superior aim to neo, i think the one problem that really haunted forest from being at no.1 was his ability to think during the game, his reckless play always got him killed during 2v2 situations or when they needed him to finish a round off, this is what helped neo be so successful his ability to work with teamates, and when he had none, to move around the map predicting where opponents went. another great point is that neo really changed his style later on, was using the awp a lot more and played much more passive which changed his mad fragger mentality and play. i think for these reason's neo is the most unique and dominant player in the history of the game, the ability to play at all levels and adapt.
