GRAND FINAL! - FaZe vs Spirit - HIGHLIGHTS - IEM Katowice 2024 l CS2 

1.93 rating holy shit kid is built beyond different

Just so everyone knows, sh1ro is the only guy predicted donk to be a future top 20 players from HLTV ranking in 2022 and now they won one of the biggest CS tournament together

The single greatest performance ever seen, and it was his first big event. Donk is officially a legend

Donk is like a coming of Jesus Christ into CS Pro-scene. We've never seen such performance before even from prime s1mple. 1.70 HLTV Rating over the tournament. Noone ever had such numbers.

Never seen Faze getting eradicated in finals, in the biggest stage like this. Donk is simply unreal, every players who has reached their peak consistently were all awpers, therefore it's very captivating for us to see how he's able to achieve such ludicrous rating just by the rifle, you know his value already when shiro dropped his awp, just to give an AK to him. Biggest stage and made all the biggest star in faze like it's nothing. ☠️ Nevertheless happy for shiro tho, he deserves it🌸🌸

Faze got 0-3 in final...this is new....now 0-5 vs spirit.....shiro and donk just killing everything that moves from faze...glad that shiro finally lift a trophy again after struggling for a long time

After so much pain supporting sh1ro he finally won a trophy

I actually doubted donk before this tourney, but after THAT performance, there isn't really words for it. Just glad I got to watch it all live

The crowd was very disappointing , booing Spirit and Shiro , absolute L

Don’k : 2.06 ; 1.55 ; 2.38 . Not questions

Wtf, donk looks like a god in this game. Consistent double kills and always getting one more than is expected.

Donk with 82 kills second highest in the server is sh1ro with 53 how crazy is that

Haters were trying to bully donk all the way. "Not gonna be good at tier-1", " Will be bad against teams like faze", "Patch will nerf him". They can't accept that new star is coming. And I think they will not accept even after this by saying something like " It's just 1 tournament, he will be bad later"

Donk absolutely SMURFED on Faze. It's not even close holy.

Wow. Just wow. One of the greatest teams in the world, possibly the best team when it's playoff time, and Donk and Spirit just dumpstered them. 3-0 finals, 5-0 in total over the entire tournament. Ridiculous hackusations already thrown around after map 1 whereever I looked, i have hope that this comment section can be better. All I can say to anyone considering this is: dont be a sore loser. Just enjoy witnessing greatness. Ggs to Faze fans, and congrats to the OG Spirit fans! ❤

This kid is on a rampage. I haven’t seen anything like this before. Only question is can he keep up his form consistently. If he can, my god this team has the potential to create an era like Astralis.

Holy shit, they were 2x champions in Dota 2 and now they also claim championship on CS2

Sh1ro FAN since yeas ago he deserved this more than anyone

Everyone talking about sh1ro and donk but man magixx was the joker turning every bad situation to Spirits side when needed the most.

How is this even possible? Donk makes prime Niko and S1mple look second rate. Am I alive?

Sh1ro career had a lot of a pain noow he finally won a touranment

Sh1ro made spirit instant coontenders not just the firepower over artfrost but you can see the setups from spirit are better noow

Shiro with all those heartbreaking losses in tournaments with that weak C9 are compensated here ... JUSTICE IS SERVED...

The crowd was dead for Spirit. With their performance, they deserved a screaming crowd on fentanyl.

congratulations to spirit and donk especially. he has proven to be a top 3 talent, he will be in that level. He's in contention for GOAT status. Nobody played like him, especially as a rifler at such an young age.

Everyone highlighting Donk, but don't forget Sh1ro's awping, Chopper's experience, Maggix's consistency, Zontix's playing well..Cmon These are Generals behind a king

So many pros still playing like it’s csgo while donk is playing cs2

More like FaZe vs Donk

Next CS2 update: Donk -50% aim -20% movement speed +25% recoil

Congrats team spirit🎉 for ur win. Donk surely has potential to be goat of cs2 and get top 1 this yr alongside with zywoo.

Spirit winning the major and donk getting number 1 of 2024 I seen enough

Thats a history right here, insane performance

I think d0nks secret that he started playing cs with 100 ping which is very high, but when he started playing with good ping the game became so much easier for him 😊❤

Get donked Faze clan! This was annihilation. Donk having the highest ratings in the entire history of Katowice is insane. He literally is the new Niko. He beat Niko's record. But mad props to rest of his team mates. Every one of them had awesome moments. Finally, even though I am not a Faze fan, it felt bad seeing Karrigan getting emotional. I wish all the best to both teams for the future.

Наши красавцы ❤ горжусь , вы самые лучшие ❤

what i heard is that he had better stats than anyone has had before in t1 tournament

Greatest individual performance in history of cs,even better than s1mple performance in cologne. Donk is even better than s1mple/zywoo combine. And going to make history in cs as a rifler with 1.35 ratings plus mark my words.

ropz was the only player consistent on the team Faze, I hope they come back stronger and better, also would learn and move on from this loss.

Get Donked! Witnessed a legend emerge in CS2, let us all see what the future holds for Counter Strike history.

50:26 based

And everyone clowned Navi for losing to team spirit, but looking now they are the only team that won a map against team spirit 😅

Donk is comming in the scene like the god of death. He is playing the best players of the world down into the ground like they are tier 2 players… those stats are I N S A N E, and all of that with 17 years of age, unbelievable!

I havent seen anythink like that. Donk just played 3 matches of faceit infront of toxic crowd like a CHAD, and he is just 17... Haters will never be remembered but this masterclass will never be forgotten.. Gratz to whole Spirit team, well played!

Production went crazy for this!!!

happy for Shiro, congrats Team Spirit!

I'm happy that sh1ro won, but holy shit I feel so bad for artfr0st. He has to watch spirit win a tournament he could've won with them behind a screen while being stuck in Parivision with washed up players (Patsi and qikert), a terrible player (x5) and an igl who's been very disappointing so far this year (Jerry).

WOW! I really thought the final will be a toughter game. Team Spirit done it in style! And this kid has a gianormous talent. If he keeps it up like this, in a year is top1, for sure! Now this was just a tournament, let's see them in the next ones. Good job, Team Spirit!

So cool to watch an upcoming prodigy for CS. Amazing grand final.

There is no shame in losing, when your opponent plays brillantly - Mikhail Botwinnik well played team spirit and well deserved victory. faze came up with no solution to donk. lets see if he can keep up with his own pace.

As a faze fan, big congrats to donk. Kid is insane, the smoke kills were very sus but apart from that he was just a force to be reckoned with. Adn chopper positioned him very good in both mirage and nuke on ct side where he can peek and rotate anywhere he wants. I was sure that Faze wont be able to hold or take a site he was in, the kid was having the presence not even Zywoo or s1mple has. Mirage was a heartbreaker but thats the beauty of the game, you win some u lose some. Hope this wont effect the team that much and they can go forward. As for spirit, give credit where its due, yes in mirage donk seemed mortal but that first map he was a god among men. Magixxx stepped up big time in mirage, but I have a new fav player today; zont1x. The man does everything, and he is so calm and collected. A perfect player for any team u put him in. I was already a fan of him after the blas t tournament but him showing everybody the finger when they expected them to break under pressure. GG wp for both teams

Now this is interesting to watch!

Donk's performance was crazy/legendary on its own, but the fact that he did this on his first big event just makes it even more unbelievable. I couldn't believe my eyes watching that little goblin wipe faze in the finals. Every player of Faze just looked gutted to the bone playing the last map.

imagine sh1ro's relief lmao, FINALLY he's gonna lift some trophies and get his dues this year

Donk aka "The Truth"

Donk is a legend WTF 😱😱😱

Not even half way into it and I have to say. This is pretty exciting. I am on the edge of my seat, this is crazy

This final was wild 🤣 Almost confusing at times

Congratulations to spirit, I welcome any new faces rather than the usual teams winning the grandslam and major this year so I wish Spirit all the best for the rest of the season😊👏🏻 Note: I pay no attention to any politics or nonsense out there and I just enjoy the game as it is.

Kerigan with the back pat on Donk at the end like "God damn kid, good job. It's your game now."

58:05 The moment when Karrigan understood that Donk had a 100% clear and speedrunvideo of CS2 uploaded

1 map lost in the entire tournament, and that was off the back of a 1v4 clutch by Wonderful. Perhaps the most dominant tournament run since Faze at ESL New York 2017. Edit: Since Navi at Stockholm 2021, actually.

The greatest individual performance I think we have ever seen in CS history. What an absolute masterclass from this kid. His awareness is unlike anything we have ever seen before.

Frozen's usual smirk was wiped clean off today. I am guessing - Donk is like that new player whose style of play nobody is used to .. there will come a day where he will no longer be considered a "different level player" and be the usual one among the T1 pros . The other players will analyze and figure out his style and find ways to counter him, as it has been with many players in the past . Its just a matter of time. He cant keep donking forever. There will always be someone better than the "best" . But WP to Donk & Spirit. So happy for Sh1ro . Well deserved W . GG to Faze .

it’s so fucking satisfying to see faze get humbled happy for shiro as well

Definitely a history for CS2. Donk went on a rampage

I love that they all lift the trophy, together as a team ! Well played Spirit, and watch out for DONK future teams :D

Donk666 ending 32/14 on a opening map is crazy, blud playing like a pub game lmao

Donk is also giving all his team mates a confidence boost. +3 in Confidence. -2 in teeth.

This donk kid is so fucking Godlike, how is that possible for the age of 17? I mean look at s1mple, ZywhOo, m0NESY, NiKo, Jimpphat and even b1t's debuts in the past, his debut is way more superior than all, at this point i even doubt waller and aimhacker cant kill him, his timing, his movement, his aiming, his gamesense are fucking dope, man just cant frag less than 20 kills in every map, this is CRAZY!!!!

That was crazy. Sad for Karrigan. Donk was something else. He looks like he is 11 years old (I know he is 17, but he looks so tiny). Some of his smoke kills were a little suspicious, but overall what a monster. The rest of the spirit team was fantastic as well. Faze couldn’t but together a consistent strategy to win rounds. Great tournament

I fell bad for faze going to so many finals and losing badly against first with vita and now with spirit,it would be so heart breaking for them. Also congrats to spirit🎉 for winning kato and donk with arguably greatest individual performance in cs history.

Holy shit this game was absolutely one-sided. Props to Spirit, and massive props to Donk. Hopefully he carries Spirit to a Major or Blast World Final title, or gets picked up by a much bigger org.

So happy for sh1ro😢

Good going Sh1ro. Happy to see you got a trophy. Donk is just an unknown ringer before this. Let's see how he follows up after this. Faze is till my fav with and it doesn't hurt that their team is full of handsome guys.

Donk is so good I’m genuinely baffled as to how he’s legit. Idek what it is that he does so much better than everyone else but god he’s fun to watch. It’s gonna be fun watching teams figure out how to fight him haha

I just don’t understand why people hate on the kid? He’s a beast!!!

I just wonder if CryMeARiver guy commited sucide after this match or just became Spirit fan 🤣

It was tough to see Faze go down like that to a kid with great reaction. Let's see if it lasts. Chances are high that donk will be bought out for a million, and what will be left? It will also be interesting to see how long will it take other teams to adjust their game plan to donk's style.

Perfect

I feel like most teams attending the tournament were really out of form. All players from vitality underperforming, Navi just a mess, astralis with no coach, falcons also not adjusted to the newly formed roster, cloud9 with no sniper, g2 underperforming. Can’t say the same about mouz, EF, ence. Faze were somewhat good against spirit but also worse than with twistz. I don’t know, it feels like most teams weren’t at their best and I think there’s more to expect. Obviously, spirit are beasts rn, but I reckon that it’s not that long till others catch up. After all, from what I’ve seen, spirit’s mostly about getting openfrags, aggression and bulldozing with momentum. They also have pretty good teamplay in terms of trades and map control but their game is based on risking high for high reward. You can literally see donk dry peeking or pushing and getting away with that. I hope other teams will catch on to what spirit are doing and punish these high risk plays. Props to spirit and donk, they’ll go a long way. Hope astralis will get more competitive in the upcoming events

That donk guy is pretty good...

THE KID AND TEAM ARE AMAZING! How can new blood reignite nostalgia inside me is insane! They play like old school cs

A LEGEND IS BORN

Uau, pur și simplu ! :| Spirit chiar a demonstrat că merită. Au meritat victoria și mă bucur că au și obținut-o ! Băieți fără figuri, fumuri, pretenții sau aroganțe ! Un model de urmat; Sincere felicitări ! Mult succes și cumpătare în continuare !

Donk is either one of the best players of all time, or he has something that allows him to get the most insane smoke kills. His two kills through smoke early on Nuke blew my mind. It’s either him being insanely elite and well prepared for faze or he has walls of some sort. I have never felt like a tier 1 player was sus until this. But no one could cheat at a grand final with people standing behind him screen watching plus his entire system being tracked, right?

O.M.G donk If he keeps this up we are witnessing the goat

Donk played god like and his teammates performed excellent🎉

when they shook hands frozen whispered to donk: hacker

It is sad to see such a "democracy" where the team is booed for playing well...

this is brutal man

Champions of Katowice - Worth every bit of it

We really have never seen this before. I dont think people are understanding that. Nobody not zywoo s1mple or niko, nobody has done what donk just did

Watched this live, I was supporting Spirit the whole but at least was expecting Faze to at least buckle down on Map 3, *damn*. GG EZ apparently

What is the music at the beginning?

donk become phenomenon. what a perfomance

Monesy who ?

Im happy for shiro , he is finally in a good team

That scout headshot beautifully silenced the crowds

DONKED!

I have never seen someone kill like Donk kills through smoke...
