Video: f0rest vs ROCCAT
By: aThId
Time: 2012-06-26 20:30
Event: NGL-One Season 4
Game: Counter-Strike 1.6

Our "Frags from the past" collection is back with another action by Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg during his best years in fnatic.

After showcasing his outstanding USP ace against Frag eXecutors, we now present a weapon round against the Finnish players from ROCCAT. Moments after Lindberg picks the first frag out yard, he finds himself in a tough one-versus-four situation which he overcomes with a clever play. Later that event, the Finns came back on track from lower bracket and played fnatic once again in the grand final but the Swedes closed the match with another 2-1 score.

nice frag but you have such sick and legendary actions why uploading this?
2012-06-26 20:32:03
Which ones? Oh I know, the ones that everyone knows about ? I like to see frags that I haven't seen before and no one has ever made a video of instead of shitty anti eco frags.
2012-06-26 20:35:01
Oh my fellow Portuguese, but those clips are from 2011 & 2012, the second one I've even saw here on HLTV.org's channel, why do you think this series is called "frags from the past" ? They don't show stuff this early...
2012-06-26 20:42:05
First - not that impressive
Second - already on HLTV.org's channel
Third - it's not even f0rest and the clip you're looking for it's in this very article..
2012-06-26 21:29:41
sry havent look at the title of the last one but its the one f0rest did against FX i guess
2012-06-26 21:52:23
they r already in the channel mate
2012-06-26 21:59:49
ok sry so xd
2012-06-26 22:27:41
Its suspicious you made a clip of f0rest when he was playing in fnatic the same day that fnatic announces the new player. Athid is on to something huh!

2012-06-26 20:35:20
Never seen it before but it was pretty average...in his standards
2012-06-26 20:32:24
+1 was expecting more.

Don't get the "clever play" comment - bog standard is more like it.
2012-06-26 20:47:41
Still worth a clip though of course! but its like lurppis says, finnish players cant win advantageous situations and are easy to clutch versus ;p
2012-06-26 20:49:10
Yeah it's worthy of a clip - as is pretty much any 1v4 at that level. But that's all it is really, just another 1v4.

Never saw lurppis write that but I guess he's right! Personally I don't understand why lurppis didn't rush him in that situation? It was pretty reasonable to assume that he had picked up another gun (silencer switch) and had run out of ammo after that spray. Heat of the moment of course, but I just think that he chose the worst possible course of action. Falling back to lobby would have been another option, but I just don't understand why he decided to stay there with his back unguarded. 33% chance of a free kill.
2012-06-26 21:01:52
Yeah especially because he didnt fake defuse at all! but I guess lurppis thought f0rest would not look there because its such a crazy position!
2012-06-26 21:05:04
Crazy indeed! Guess it must have been one of those "OHFUCKITSA1V1FROMA1V4SITUATIOOOONFML" brainfreezes!
2012-06-26 21:10:39
he was clearly going to commit peak when forest tapped the bomb. because forest would have turn + get off the bomb, it's almost a guaranteed kill if he peaks quickly enough after the defuse(assuming he doesn't whiff horribly which isn't exactly a remote possibility given the player in question 3h3h3h3h3h3h3hh3h3).

deadcam showed him effectively right on top of the bomb so that's presumably what his teammate called, it seems like an intelligent play given that information. even when the bomb wasn't tapped right away, it's much more likely that forest walk pushes hut than wraps around to squeaky door, so i don't think the direction he was facing was a mistake either.

he could play the timer and lurk lobby, but gl coming out of hut versus f0rest circa 2010 when he has position on you.
2012-06-26 21:19:38
Fair enough, that's a good point! But I do think that he could have suspected it due to the timing - like you said he was practically on top of the bomb and there was no defuse for quite a long time. Moreover, I'm not sure if f0rest was even aware of lurppis' position - after all he killed one and the last one's position was unclear. lurppis could easily have rotated to iron door, in which case it would have made even more sense to expect f0rest to push that (50-50).

In any case it's obviously easy to criticise players who play in the heat of the moment - quite often you don't hear anything in those situations but your heart beating.

I guess I was just disappointed with this clip.
1) Decent HS from a fairly easy defensive position
2) Below-average spray (by f0rest's standards)
3) 1hp kill
4) Nice WB, but questionable play by opponents.
5) Decent gamble, but once again questionable play by opponent.

Sure it's clip-worthy, but not good enough to be a "blast from the past" or whatever they call them.
2012-06-26 21:38:21
the baseline assumption in a 1v1 is that the T is going to play the time, and their decisions derive from that.

given that fact, the CT tapping the bomb as soon as possible is the best play because it forces the T to peak as early as possible, or risk allowing the CT to full d.

f0rest's play was a gamble because it severely reduced his time to play with the bomb. in exchange, he is in a great position to kill lurppis if he's peaking aggressively hut or squeaky door.

lurppis' play is based on the fact that f0rest tapping the bomb right away is the highest percentage play for the CT to make, and it is a direct counter to that play.

once lurppis was committed to hut, he had to choose to watch hut entrance or hut window. he gambled hut entrance and was wrong, but i don't think it was a bad choice.
2012-06-26 22:33:28
Don't agree with you in full. Yeah he was gambling for the defuse, but the defuse never came. Plan B should be slightly better than "I hope he'll peak door instead of window."
Ultimately 1v1 with the bomb down is advantageous for the T - you have so many options. Reducing this to a 50-50 peak is not the best choice of action.
2012-06-26 23:14:38
legend!

no shot for Sonnen, last time he did pretty good i'd say, but this time he's gonna left that arena in a coffin!
2012-06-26 20:45:28
Yes. I won the first and will win again.

I destroy Anderson Silva for five rounds, punch his face 300 times, and nowadays i am much better than before, an easy fight.

2012-06-26 20:39:37
It's one of the few clutch rounds I've ever seen of f0rest, as the stats show: http://www.hltv.org/?pageid=194&playerid=29
2012-06-26 20:39:43
we will see another news entitle f0rest, wait for it
2012-06-26 20:42:11
not bad
2012-06-26 20:42:16
You always talk shit and when you see a markeloff clip you scream like a school girl. Be objective, not a cunt.
2012-06-26 21:02:10
oh dude
the last markeloff's movie was really insane
i'm objective
if I wrote "not bad" it means that I like it...LOL

Ok bro :D I agree about markeloff's last clip. But instead of writing "not bad" which makes you look like an ignorant 9gagger you could think of something else to write.
2012-06-26 21:06:19

look my last comment here

2012-06-26 20:50:11
There's no skill in that n00b ! Just spray-n-pray against aligned bots. You should be thankful you see this action at all ;-)

yes no skill , cuz u can do it , if that shit was on internet i would say that he was using leis, even wih god milacre u wouldntt be capable to do such a sickness
2012-06-26 20:54:11
You must be either retarded or really new into the game.
2012-06-26 20:56:16
yes i am new, that shit isnt a sick action fo sho- by > mSdoS, oldschool dont like it cuz he cant see skill in that, ofc he got luck but that was amazing
2012-06-26 20:59:23
I didn't say it wasn't amazing, it's just that any semi pro player at that point could've done that from the way the enemies were aligned and none was shooting at him.
2012-06-26 21:00:30
no they couldnt't. it looks so easy but it is not how you think.
he plays with 3.5 sens and in close range he controled this spray so good like no one else
2012-06-27 12:23:58
So by that logic do you think he plays with a big sens just so he cannot control his spray in close range? Of course he finds that suitable to his gameplay and he practiced like hell in those years but again, anyone could've done that.
2012-06-27 12:26:59
But for now this position is called f0rest :p
2012-08-22 17:16:26
