There have been a number of eras in Counter-Strike history, defined by a handful of rosters that have conquered the game’s professional landscape for years at a time. But none have dominated quite like Astralis.

They've been called a cursed team. They've seen incredible highs and devastating lows. But they shaped an entire era and redefined what a dynasty in CS:GO could be.

This is the story of CS:GO's greatest team to date. This is the story of Astralis.

    The "THE BEST OF ALL F*CKING TIME" sentence is just engraved in my memory
  • @Rembrandt96
    Astralis fan or not, the opening edit can get any true CSGO fan hyped. Amazing work.
  • Peak Astralis had the best individually skilled players who gelled smoothly as a team. They effectively used their utility setting one another for success. Too bad dev1ce had to leave, but this team will be the greatest team in CSGO history.
  • @akryl1k
    This video deserved to be made a long time ago. Glad to see undeniably the most dominant team of all time get recognized for what they are, legends.
  • People loved to hate them when they were on top. But we will all miss the Astralis era. Long live the kings.
  • @10millions40
    I honestly shed a tear. It hurts to know that you will never again see the 6 of them together like they are now
  • @TSkillzX
    This feels more like the closing of a book than the ending of a chapter...
  • 7:42 lets take a moment a appreciate TAZ arguably the greatest sportsman in the game! we miss you 😢

    Sadokist: The best of all f*cking time 5 mins later Sadokist: Guys, they won't fire me over this right?, RIGHT?
  • Censoring Sadokist is like peeling the cheese off of a slice of pizza.

    Astralis had an era no one will likely ever repeat. They went through thick and thin to reach the top of the world for such a long period of time. Defeating super teams like faze, certified legends in sk and winning a major against the virtus plow. This team is one for the books.
  • I would have liked if the last words were "What these 6 guys did" coz Zonic has always been there with the team.

    Gla1ve: In Game Leader Dev1ce: Main Awper Magisk: The Wonderboy Dupreeh: Entry Fragger Xyp9x: The Clutch King No roster will ever top Peak Astralis.
  • @arslors
    They reigned supreme for years. Everything comes to an end at some point.
  • @Qayin
    Why you gotta put Dupreeh back in his feels!!! You know after seeing this he’s started tearing up again 😂
  • Man i miss the time when astralis would just destroy everyone and the opposing teams would have 7x betting odds lol 😂
  • @Tiraskaar
    121 weeks on top as the number one team in the world, the most ever by any team- source HLTV, 1670 days in all time top 10 rankings- source ESL, 4 freaking major wins, 3 back to back.I don't think any team will come close to the domination Astralis had.
  • Without a doubt the best Astralis moment in history is Zonic 1v1ing S1mple at Blast
  • @yaboibrae
    I’m getting chills watching how the guys Conjured a feet only so many teams can say they have then repeating it
