"As for your first paragraph, you're basically agreeing with what I said?"

I'm not agreeing with you, I'm providing reasoning why in 3 years someone like you will be saying NEO is washed up and if somehow I'm still around I'll have to defend him. It's also easier to stay good at a game that does not change.

"As for the rest, well, I've been playing CS since 2000 and at my peak I played at a pretty decent level and played against some really good players. I never had a fantastic aim but I was always a pioneer for playing things safe - play to win, so to say, not play to frag."

I highly doubt all of this. You claim to have played since 2000, but call HeatoN's aim awful? I guess I missed all of the CPL titles you won?

"I watch a lot of pro movies and I criticise many of their decisions i.e. unnecessary pushing in 1v3 etc when you know that the other site is empty. The probability that the enemy will take the 1v3 is higher when you push against him when he's entrenched himself rather than when you force him to leave the site to defuse. Pro players do a lot of this cocky (and dumb) shit as well (but as much as I've been following competitive CS over the past 6 years, they are doing it a lot less). Just because they are pro doesn't mean that the are beyond criticism, doesn't mean that they always do the right thing and doesn't mean that they couldn't play any better. That's why I think that this round isn't that special - the first three 4K players played awfully. Heaton's aim was awful."

I assume by pro movies you mean demos, and I don't disagree that criticism of professionals is just fine. What you're doing is criticizing a clip made literally 9 years ago. Players get smarter? No fucking shit? It's the same way in other games, games are out for longer, people master them, new strats are better than old strats. HeatoN's aim was awful now? I thought you were trying to criticize the other team, now you're attacking HeatoN? lol. His aim was not awful, your analysis of the clip is awful.

"Oh and by the way, this is the reason for why I don't download old frag movies - they are shit. It's a bit like... I don't know, watching a tennis match where every 2nd-3rd volley hits the net. It's shit and it's not the reason for why I like this game."

So what the fuck are you doing posting on this thread? If you don't like them, then don't watch them. I think American Idol is shit, therefore, I don't watch it. How you're comparing this clip to watching people hit the net in tennis every 2nd-3rd volley just blows my mind. CS is not fucking tennis.
