mTw 2008 beat fnatic 2008ish

2/8/2014 - 22:49

mTw's 2008 team won the Counter-Strike Forever 1.6 showmatch following a 2-0 victory over fnatic's 2008 squad, who had Björn "threat" Pers as a stand-in.

Because of the delays in G3's group stage, Ninjas in Pyjamas' Patrik "⁠f0rest⁠" Lindberg was unable to play for fnatic, which forced the Swedish side to use a stand-in, Björn "threat" Pers, who only joined the team in January 2010 after helping them to win the World Esports Masters the month before.

It was good old Counter-Strike 1.6 action, with streams in both English and Ukrainian, in this best-of-three showmatch, whose purpose was to celebrate fnatic's tenth anniversary.

mTw.dk back to winning ways

With the $1,500 prize purse going to charity, the result is what least matters, but history books will say that mTw bested fnatic with a 2-0 scoreline, following 16-9 and 16-3 victories on de_dust2 and de_train.

Ye, because no Pro cs player is above 25 years old:D

2014-08-02 23:12

not after a 5 year break and in a completely new game, no

2014-08-02 23:32

LOL so many retarded ppl on earth

2014-08-03 07:01

Amen

2014-08-03 10:25

nice nice nice zonic go comeback

this i rly miss old MTW in cs go

2014-08-02 23:17

Would love to see at least one of these danes to be back into the game ;-;

2014-08-02 22:53

I like the idea behind it, but it was quite stupid to do this showmatch during a rather tight schedule. "fnatic 2008" without f0rest is a complete joke.

2014-08-02 22:56

no forest no win :(

did whimp play on that 2004 danish titan team?

/T/ eGene /T/ spx /T/ Drally /T/ whiMp /T/ cALC The Titans. >,,<

2014-08-02 23:05

good old time SK.DK

2014-08-02 23:52

The winners of ESWC was egene, drally, whimp, kk and eraz if I'm not wrong.

2014-08-03 04:57

I knowhow kk was in the lineup when winning ESWC

2014-08-03 08:43

No KK no party.

2014-08-03 14:03

no f0rest no fun :'(

How many specs did it get?

like 4k

maybe if some actual news of this showmatch had been announced, there could have been 5x that number not even the danish site had anything about it

2014-08-03 00:00

hltv had it... it could have been 5x the number if no big csgo matches was going on but we had 2 lans so..

2014-08-03 00:12

Yeah.. I checked the site regularly at that time, but I didn't see it.

2014-08-03 00:17

i was watching it from the start, and it became boring after a couple of rounds. Commentators was boring, game was boring, i was actually pretty disappointed about the game.

if csgolounge added this*

2014-08-04 05:45

Why would any of the cs:go kids in csgolounge watch? It's not like any skins dropped;)

2014-08-04 09:48

2ez for Sunde + zonik

Navi called mtw for battle @ ceh9's strean confirmed

He did? I was watching the english stream for obvious reasons. Would love to see this mTw against old NaVi: zonic trace ave minet Sunde They could their last chance to finally get a win against NaVi, atleast together. But i Think they would have no chance Since pretty Much everybody from that NaVi lineup is still active.

2014-08-03 02:10

The mtw team we saw here is better than the one with minet and trace

2014-08-03 08:45

Not agreed.

2014-08-03 11:39

Not sure about that tbh. trace is an absolute monster

2014-08-03 15:46

This times a hundred.

2014-08-03 15:47

Im not sure if it was serious or he just joking in skype conference

2014-08-03 11:58

train wasnt a good choice for a 1.6 match after so long, matches on train can end very fast. other than that it was great to watch :D gj onscreen, the other guy was just ok.

where can i find video for this? i missed it :(

2014-08-03 02:45

I know that is impossible but I would love to watch PGS 2006 and NiP 2006 :D

THIS IS SENSATIONAAAAAL

2014-08-02 23:18

u know what I mean :D

2014-08-02 23:19

SK 2006 vs PGS would be real match, or SK - NiP 2005

2014-08-03 10:30

dsn <3

dumb to schedule this the same day as g3

gg =D

expected

2014-08-02 23:36

there goes my prediction, thought forest would play so went with fnatic, catch a little bit of the game, but was also watching g3 so gg wp all involved!

anywhere to rewatch this (youtube or?) didnt get to see it. Or do any1 know who streamed it so i can look it up at past broadcasts

2014-08-03 00:10

This fnatic without f0rest has no firepower at all... I would be pissed if they played with f0rest and it didn't had HLTV, but since f0rest (their carrier / main star) wasnt't there, I'm not mad. Also, threat?! Why??

2014-08-02 23:59

Gux would've been a better choice, but he might had something going on in his private life.

2014-08-03 01:49

Any way I can watch this?!? stream vid or smth?

2014-08-03 02:46

#66 #57 didn't have them uploaded until recently

2014-08-03 03:05

This was a treat to watch. I hope NA can get a coL vs 3D showcase match sometime soon. We're overdue. I'm sure the guys would be up for something like that.

fnatic even with f0rest was worse than mTw until they brought in GeT_RiGhT and Gux

very bad timing for a showmatch

i would really like to see this 2k8 team @CS:GO, zonic still has sick reflex :$$$

2014-08-03 00:18

Yea the headshot he made on short on to cArn i Think it was on dd2 was sexy But i agree! Csgo plz

2014-08-03 15:48

I'd like to watch the game because I missed it. Does anyone know how to get the demo?

Found the stream hltv.org/?pageid=286&streamid=164

2014-08-03 00:23

Cheers mate!I'm gonna enjoy that game! I miss so much mTw !

2014-08-03 00:25

:))

2014-08-03 00:27

expected, gj mTw. but everybody knows f0rest might change game different. =]

no f0rest no party ;)

2014-08-03 01:38

zonic csgo comeback please!!!

2014-08-03 02:12

expected, it was like in 2008... mTw was insane in that year

2014-08-03 02:28

MTW !!

2014-08-03 02:51

Lovely

2014-08-03 02:57

Amazing too see these legends play the game again. Gonna watch it for sure.

2014-08-03 03:10

mTw 2008 was a complete team, probably the best team in CS history (not achievement wise)

2014-08-03 03:47

VOD? DEMOS?

2014-08-03 03:59

who cares 1.6 sucks

2014-08-03 04:49

Literally everyone that plays CS longer than 2 years cares. The only thing that sucks is you.

2014-08-03 09:14

Go play COD...CS is not for you.

2014-08-03 12:11

still better than css

2014-08-03 12:13

vod and demos please :)

2014-08-03 04:59

thnx a lot

2014-08-04 06:51

Old timers :D would have love to see them play 1.6 coz that's what made them famous!

it was 1.6 lol

2014-08-03 20:01

please...never....go....full...... <<<<-----RETARD----->>>>

2014-08-04 05:49

All CS's games, especially cs 1.6,is nothing without Patrik "f0rest" Lindberg

2014-08-03 13:51

it should be fnatic 2009 vs mtw 2008 :D

2014-08-03 13:52

yeah 2009 lineup was insane

i would like to see a tournament actually with charity purposes ofcourse with players from the best lineups through out cs history. Of course some players could be on multiple teams but we could figure the top8 cs teams of 1.6 (2003-2012) easily. SK 2003 NoA 2004 coL 2005 mtw 2008 fnatic 2009 NaVi 2010- G5 (with luq) project_kr 2008 (solo, bail, hee, ari, termi) that would be a hell of an event wouldnt it? :D

2014-08-03 16:21

for sure but that would mean a lot of cash to invest to gather all people again.

2014-08-03 20:25

yeap indeed but charity is charity :P
