Jame wasn’t supposed to win the Rio CS:GO Major.
His team, Outsiders, used to be one of the best teams in the world - now they were boring, robotic, overrated.
The playstyle that made Jame a star just wasn’t working anymore.
But just when it seemed like it was all over, something finally clicked - and Jame led his team of forgotten misfits to do the impossible.

yeah but still runs on Chromium
Video 8h ago, comment 2d ago? Ayo wtf?
@@Lasarius yeah chromium browsers are so shit ngl. i use firefox and use opera for homeoffice only. might need to switch as soon as manifestr v3 hits the fan
@RUclips User wtf are you talking about? Chrome is one the best browsers out there, its not a big difference between Firefox and Chrome in RAM usage and in latest versions chrome even use less ram
@@yosefm170 chrome runs on chromium and chromium is about to get mainfest v3 which will make adblockers useless that is why it’s inferior to Firefox
Jame saved so much for so many years that the one tournament where he stopped no one knew what to do.
Saving strats for decades
Imagine if he had actually planned this the whole time just so he could throw everyone off for this one major. That would be some huge brain planning
@@ithrowstuffinavideogame yeah right like “hmm I feel like winning this one time to unleash this strat.”
@@ithrowstuffinavideogame 6 years. 500k in winnings from one tournament. Easy
Playing the long game
Still can’t believe how Brazil made a giant statue of Jame in Rio de Janeiro. They love him so much ❤
Jame = Russian Jesus
peak humor
lmfao
the savior himself
It's crazy that everybody laughed at how jame had a tendency to save weaponry, and now currently it is fairly common to save a 4v5 if the bomb is already planted, or even 5 man save kevlar if the retake is impossible.
Jame was and is smart as fuck, he literally shaped the current economy meta
thats what it is called. Tactical Shooter
@@KillerInstinct1for real though
The meta is changing not so much because Jame popularised it, but because once the Astralis era came hurling in all teams were scrambling to make perfect 5-man set pieces at exact seconds of the round to rain a dozen utility at one spot. They used to always try to do that but not nearly to the effort they do in the past 3 years, and the increasingly successful hard work done to literally read the minds of all the superstar players is huge just so that they can now make effective counters.
It's made the best individual players get completely stomped--it's not that we don't have Kenny, Guardian, Fallen, Cold etc with us, but recent cs meta has made superstars a lot less OP.
Perfecting the teamwork has changed the way rounds are played. I don't like this new thing because it's boring to watch, but it is unfortunately the objectively better way to play a pro league.
@@icehawk3442 just like football
@@icehawk3442 every single word you said was true lmao. jesus, it couldnt have been said any better than that.
I love the part when he says "It's Jamein' time!" And proceeds to 9k ace even killing his team
that made me remember the kennys 6k
That made me Jame all over the place
@@pold111 bruh
I had this theory about Outsiders always being consistent. That gives them good wins and good matches but not a lot of touney wins. I would then extrapolate that into the Rio major where the sheer vibe of the place just sucked the life out of everyone, except for Outsiders because these guys were just grinding with laserfocus like always.
But then I also know that's a bunch of bs and Outsiders abolutely nailed it in Rio, with JAME at the helm
And then they fell right tf off like the bots they are.
Couldn't even qualify for Paris, what a joke of a team.
Jame will be back
@MB no he won't. He's not even part of a complete team. Moreover, he fell off just over a month after winning the major. He got slapped on Outsiders' own map pick of Mirage 1-16.
@@lukesawardbeats9629 I mean in future tense, as in, he is not there right now, but in the future, he might be back.
Also I cannot look into the future so it's really just a hopeful comment. Nothing more.
@@mb5970 with how high level Cs is now, he won't win another event, let alone another major
So Adren has quietly been apart of the two biggest major winning underdog stories in CS:GO? What a guy
how so? i was trying to find who coached them back in rio. that was dastan, as it is now. in wich way was Adren involved?
@@brzk_ he used to be a part of Avangar which went on to be in the finals of Berlin Major. I would say Adren helped Qikert and Jame by sharing his experience.
Wasnt he (Adren) in Gambit aswell when they won with Zeus?
Apparently he wasn't supposed to win this one either....
A very unfortunate disconnect but in all fairness VP didnt look good on the decider map
Jame гений. Не палил страты, заставил всех думать, что он всегда сейвит, вследствие чего никто не ждал, что он будет клачить. 4000 IQ
i think when fane said "fuck it, screw my teams leader im going in" was when jame realized he wasnt using any of his teams potential including his own. either that or jame was holding back and being like "these teams will least expect us to come back, lets show them what we've been hiding" cause there is no way a pro team can actually suck for so long then do a 180 GOTCHA that fast. just saying something was planned.
1.99M subs, well deserved, can't wait for 2M
Jame time is not always a bad time then
I will make a new account and subscribe it to y’all every day until you guys hit 2 mil subs
They were on both sides of 2 of the most convincing major grand finals in history
Legend says Jame had enough saved Awps to trade in for the trophy. (Jokes aside congrats to outsiders for the win)
I LOVE these stories. They are the kind of people that give us hope against impossible odds.
The issue is, this shit happens every major in CS. So much of it is who's 'feeling it' as they say. Think Renegades, Ence, etc.
He absolutely deserved to win the major
No he didn’t. 😂 all the good teams flopped.
@@quemzzy7397 which means he deserved it.
@@quemzzy7397 stay mad
@@quemzzy7397 not all the good teams flopped
@Quemzzy that doesn't mean he didn't deserve the win 💀 wtf lol
Now this video makes more sense after VP got eliminated from Copenhagen major
Just imagine the fact that simple, norbert and quikert have same amount of majors😂
I love all these CSGO eSports videos you've been putting out lately!!
8:46 - you should have said "... But now, well, Jame looked kinda Lame" it was RIGHT. THERE.
Jame actually sandbagged in Berlin Major finals to save strats for Rio Major
They have been good for so long, but had a few roadblocks and they finally figure it out with fame and y’all are still in denial that he deserves this major. Out of my top 3 people I wanted to see win a major it was karrigan, simple, and jame. All 3 had majors elude them until each of them won and it was beautiful
Brazil crowd gave him the confidence he needs
We we're too busy making jokes of him that we didn't saw Jame was playing the most correct CS of the Major, when you face such good teams, you have to capitalize every error and make every round expensive for the enemy team
this major they did him bad they were killing it
Was happy to see Jame win it... but was glas to see both Jame and Cadian in the finals... both deserved it...
Jame mechanically speaking he is one of the best of all times...he is so accurate and so talented in clutches.but he rarely can show his talent
Nope.
With one major and no other trophies, he is not the GOAT.
@@lukesawardbeats9629bro does not wanna look at what time it is💀
Not alot of players have a major under their name. That itself is enough for validation
6:29 dude looks like blonde Boombl4
13:34 was watching that at like 4am here in Australia
Soon to be 3 years later and this still feels like the most forgettable in history.
Not public wise, Rio is always top notch but in terms of the winner, nobody will ever remember Outsiders/VP for that..
I bet we can ask someone in 5 years who was the 2022 Major winner and they'd actually stutter
Everything said about Jame at the start of this video also applied right after the major until now (2.5 years later), and as of yesterday, benched. I don't like to call major wins 'flukes', and Outsiders played sick, I remember a lot of plays from Jame and Cadian that tournament... but this has to be the flukiest major win of them all.
ITS JAME TIME!!! BRASIL LOVES HIM ❤️🇧🇷
You could tell that the Rio crowd was shocked as hell
To the point they evaporated, lol
15:26 dude "Arguably a better team?" its the best of all time xD
He is talking about Avangar, not Astralis
Jame literally invented the current Meta and people just weren't ready or really that interested in the save meta
Bro saved so much that when he came charging in, the teams had no anti strat to counter them
hey everyone jame didn't change his playstyle idk what the video is about. he won with the same playstyle as before :)
christ the redeemer fr
“In reality I have a smoke lineup on my other monitor” he’s just like me for real
Rio is just like Krakow where the misfits with Zeus is like Jame.
Jame evolved at the right moment to prove himself. worthy of a major
Everybody gangsta till Jame doesn't save.
8:44 missed opportunity to say “Jame was looking kind of lame”
best part for me is jame not knowing he got called to recive mvp of the major
Honestly I watched a lot Avangar/VP till this major. I don't think they changed the way they play. First of all, Jame had a lot of early round aggresive picks in early rounds. I think he stopped to do it because he had rifler that was capable of. Second he said on interview he play the clutches if he has the infos of the enemy. They saved so many maps like this because they save 5000$ at 13-14.
I think the Outsiders victory is more about reaching a peak at the good moment. It's common in CIS team. Plus it's about gaining confident in the way they don't play. It's not because you lose the round that the tactics was bad. It is always about small details.
Who are we to even judge if some one was or was not suppose to win major and shit in the 1st place? Thats the problem people underestimate everything, everyone was so shocked that it didn't went the way THEY thought bruh. If you were so shocked about that then that just means you neglected to even believe that tier 1 teams could lose and not make it out to finals, people need a reality check and need to wake the fuck up and see the other side of possibilties too.
Jame is simple too good, better than all others, Jame is God.
simply*
hes literally Jesus
Accept Jame as your sole lord and saviour.
Then after that win, they disapeared even faster than my dad
Clearly the first right hand man left for the ultimate fame/Jame combo. Just rolls off the tongue
13:23 pikachu with big boba .
i gotta say being someone who is a karrigan fan, i do want him to have an era, butthat being said i find era's to be rather boring, i find it more exciting to see real competition
Jame went from meme to Major Champion.
Brother really said messing with Opera GX feels like min maxing a nuclear reactor. I mean it’s a good browser but what 💀
sucks to not catch this right after it released but I had a stream to watch (siege gaming was fun), beyond that I'm very happy that outsiders won since it proves that boring cs is just solid and that flashyness should sometimes be kept for the special moments
jame is the awp rasputin bro absolutely mystical w it
The finals itself was amazing to watch. But the crowd soiled it for me
Expected, Brazilians / Portuguese only cheer for their people. It’s the same in any sport, it’s natural
ah yes, when the silent guy in the room brings the AK moments. Just run cadian, run...
He literally went super saiyan 2 and the long con together
The flick on overpass was outstanding, you can't deny he is goat with the awp Kenny s level
cant wait for them to get their shit rocked next major
This is what happens when Jame says "Fuck Jame time" XD
Announcer: "These guys were just hard at work and that's why they're major winners."
Jame: "Not today I wasn't. ;)"
They basically did an Classic OG Dota but instead of TI, they got a Major.
no he was suppose to everyone was talking about other teams everyone forgets how calm and good calls jame makes in an arena and they reached final in Astralis Dominant era.
Dimitrisaid it before jame is boring but when he decides to go aggro he pops off
Opera owned by big china so hard pass
Wait til you realise most of your favourite games are also owned by china
Nobody cares
What ab most of ur pc parts?
@@alpheus_land hardware don’t mean they get constant control over my data in software
@@nottucks oh, I thought like chips can be put in them or something
jame was a famous meme and very good player way before yekindar joined the team by the way
Of course, he made it to the Berlin major grand finals.
@@zettour. when? Ten years ago?
@@lukesawardbeats9629 StarLadder Berlin was in 2019. Jame was in AVANGAR and go to grand finals by beating Vitality and Renegades. I know COVID happened, but it was not that long ago.
his interview at the end was the best part
its crazy that they won hltv top 20 had only jame in their 2022 and he was damn last in the list. i think that it never happend that a major champion team looked like that on hltv ranking
he took 6 years to finesse everyone with his playstyle
"he wasnt suposed to win" says the liquid fans who got the cursed entryfragger
Jesus a 2minute ad
tl;dr: Jame got that dawg in him!!
He just have ballz of ice cold steel. Never give up, never bend to anybody. There is a reason why he looks like jesus.
Agreed
Jame Time!
Why didn't you mention his long time teammate Qikert...
He was with him through the end...
Wasn't supposed to win the major? My diamond coin begs to differ.
Slow and steady wins the race.
the same story OG win TI8 , what a story to tell.
3:57 the what?
4:35 I laughed so hard
Thanks, I came back from cs a month ago and I didnt know which team was outsiders, anyway, great story
I Kno I'm a year late but I have a question are they the first orgless team to win a major? Because as far as I know they didn't played under virtus pro due to the war at the time of the rio major.
Wow, sponsors get to even appear in the thumbnails now.
I didn't know that Jesus won the Counter-strike Major
more of those videos
S Tier major before the semi-finals, D tier major after semi-finals
How? Both teams were in the top 10 lmfao
@@psych0CS2 doesn’t change the fact that this is the most boring final out of the top 4 (and arguably top 8 too) “lmfao” Who cares what ranking the teams are bruh they have to be interesting
@@frxzzy_ i find heroic to be a very exciting team to watch. I think the crowd is the reason the final wasn't appreciated. We have also been absolutely spoiled with Antwerp, Stockholm, Katowice and cologne finals all being insane.
Oddly enough, Heroic wasn't supposed to be in the finals either
They made a video about that fing meme about me
And i took it personaly - Jame, probably
JAME TIME HATE IT OR LOVE IT NEW META IS MADE GIRLS
bro used anime and post nut clarity to win a major
Huge respect to Liquidpedia for correctly calling them Virtus Pro. The CIS legacy of Dosia, Angel, Fox, Guardian, and Kutcher live on.
Speaking of Liquidpedia, congrats to YEKINDAR for paying to leave to Liquid. 👍👍👍

Dimitri… the 2019 avangar roster was not even close to as good as this outsiders roster. This was back when teams still couldn’t figure out jame and his weird awp style and he was just carrying games alone. Qikert was his only consistently good teammate and he’s still on this current team. The other 3 all played like supports, and they mostly fragged like them too. Sanji had some ok moments but he was only ever really good with smgs, he’s always been pretty bad at every other gun. Adren was already a goddamn corpse by the time he was on avangar so no surprise he was washed, and I don’t think I’ve seen buster have more than 2 kills in any round of csgo ever. That team was not even close to this one, it was pretty crazy that avangar even made that major finals, many ppl had them going out in the quarters. Once ppl saw who their opponent was in the finals we all knew astralis was getting one more for the road. Wasn’t even close 😂
I just got a rundown of an anime esports
Imagine navi have more fire power and still lose, this tell alot about how things going tho
Almost at that 2m mark
