The Story of Magisk 

“When you hear the word Astralis, what’s the first thing coming in your head?” Utility Damage.

magisk looks like he's 16 and 30 at the same time.

I remember back then Stewie2k move to MiBR was so hyped but produced mediocre results and at the same time Astralis silently signed Magisk to win 2 back to back major

He was the last piece to the puzzle of making Astralis the gods of CS:GO

The Story of Twistzz “just to show that maple syrup is another form of liquid”

Love your The story of... videos keep doing these

Astralis was abandoned, Magisk was abandoned. When they where on their lowest point they found each other in the dark. Poetic af

I remember him talking about North benching him and how VP talked to him. This story is similar towards Stewie where his parents were never supportive of his dream in gaming and now look a stewie. He's a major champ and is doing a lot for Liquid right now. These people's struggle in life before being successful and now are successful shows what you can do if you just work hard.

Never clicked so fast on a pop up notification of a YT video. Haven't even started and I already know this will be amazing

No doubt that he is the guy that changed Astralis for good!

y'know, i just watched the story of dev1ce for the 6th time and when magisk first appeared, i was like "hm, i wonder if we'll ever see stories of the other players of Astralis or not" and two hours later this pops up in my notifs

“When you hear the word Astralis, what’s the first thing coming in your head?” Me: *imagines Xyp9x’s Goddamn huge forehead* umm... The coach?

We now need the story xyp9x

Honestly can't believe how insanely dominant Astralis was from April 2018-Februari 2019. I didn't start following CS until the summer of 2018, so for me, the number one team winning majors while barely dropping a map was sort of the baseline ("They're the best in the world, why would they lose?"), but now that we have Liquid as number one, the difference is clear. Liquid wins most events they attend, but it's nowhere near as much of a shutout as what Astralis was pulling off while they were top-dog. Liquid dropping maps to Forze, Hellraisers, having close games against teams like Spirit and MVP PK, it legitimately confused me at first because Astralis had set such a high standard for what it meant to be number one. Can't see a world where Astralis doesn't retake the number one spot. It might just be my bias brought about by coming into CS and seeing them styling on absolutely everyone, but I can't believe that sort of synergy and skill can disappear in four months time.

Right now he is the most consistent player in Astralis

"When you hear the word Astralis, what's the first thing to come to your head?" Me : How do I pronounce xyp9x and magisk

Story of f0rest when? :(

"what about this one" disrespecting glaive and zonic there

Say Maaa as a sheep..then shorten it to Ma..then say Risk..but start it with a G(isk) Ma - gisk

He is a good player,i was watching him all these years,he has some fire in him,that explosion,he's good.

You see australis never tk, always in a good mentality and Everyone is poliet and friendly. I fink thats why they are good cuz they are an actual team not 5 individuals like TL

Quality content yet again from the theScore esports. These type of videos really help me learn a whole lot about a player's career. Keep up the good work!

My favorite player! I’ve always loved the way he play, after joining Astralis.

good, an actual esports person this time

Not gonna lie, I never did like Magisk and he was far from being my favourite player. But my opinion has changed after this video. He is a great player and seems like a great guy too.

Magisk has been one of my favorite players since 2016 when he was on dig. Seeing his growth on astralis made me so proud of him, even if they were beating liquid most of the time.

Astralis signing Magisk was like finding the final card of Exodia

throwback to Magiskb0Y

Man I remember that eleague knockout game between vp and north. It was cobblestone, tournament life on the line, magisk who was 17/18 at the time IIRC, got close to 30 frags in the first half. But the plow was strong and steady that day. That map seared magisk's name in my mind. Happy to see him get picked up after the north kick. Look where he is now

Holy shit the production value on this

I love Magisk, such a great player. He's a turret in places like Dust 2 B, Inferno Pit & Trains Sandbags, always getting multi-kills before going down. Sometimes it's a better idea to just go to the other side & trade out kills with Astralis than try to kill him in those spots. At least than he has to come out of those spots for a retake.

Title should be: The Story of Virtus Pro constantly beating and losing to Magisk

Happy to say I've been supporting Device and the boys since they were Dignitas. They taught me a lot during their journey, determination, passion for what you love and always keep your head up. I just gotta say I love Astralis... even if they win or lose.. it doesn't matter.. I'll be here supporting them as always. Much love to them and theScore for this video

Story of pvc when?

05:17 Gotta love HLTV's forum recent activity

Great video as always. First noticed Magisk when he was on Dignitas, became a fan when he was playing for North because he reminded me of GeT_RiGhT whith all his passion and emotion and was absolutly hyped when I heard he would join Astralis.

I love how in Katowice 2020, Magisk's acne was cleared and he grew a beard. Way to go, Magiskm4n.

From inconsistent in his latter days in North and throughout his Optic stay to 7th in the world in his first year on Astralis. Currently the only player rated above him in Astralis for the last 3 months is Device with dupreeh right behind. It must feel so good to answer the call and excel at this level, especially given the circumstances.

when i think of Astralis, thorin comes in my mind.

this dude underrated af

what a legend

The ending was perfect , gave me goosebumps

these kinda uploads are why I am subbed

Wow this is such a feel good story though. All the hard work and sincerity coming together and working out. I love these boys.

The Royal Family of CS.

never forget nip 87-0 lan streak

Make one story of Neo and forest. They are the OG Cs players. They deserve solo videos.

The story of brollan

There were a lot of players i've seen early on in their CS:GO careers and though "damn that guy is gonna be huge one day". Best example that comes to mind is that rain 1vs5 clutch versus Envy. I mean it's not the fact that he won a 1vs5 clutch, that stuff happens - not often, but it does happen, it's how he won it. Sure Envy was a bit greedy, but as far as rain goes, he played it to perfection. There are also players which i've seen and just got blown away by in terms of aim, players like ropz and twistzz come to mid. Early on we had simple in Hell Raisers, KennyS in Titan, NiKo in mouz, and so on... I for one remember seeing Magisk playing for Optic on train vs someone, and there was no particular "play" or "clutch" it was just the way he moved, his aim, his gamesense, i just thought "damn, that guy is good". So when Astralis picked him up, i was suprised that a lot of people were not only sleeping on that trade, but also praising the tarik + stew, SK trade as well - which we all know how it ended... Most people who have a good eye can spot talent. And i'm always glad when people use that talent and make something of themselves. It's also fun routing for your "underdog" in a sense. I've been waiting for ropz to blow up since he first joined mouz a while back. And now they're a top 4 team, and he has a MVP under his belt.

As expected. Awsome documentary. Keep up the good work guys. ❤️

Story of Liquid ELiGE?

I really like how the winners of CS pro league and majors sign the camera lens like soccer players. Showing that CS eSports is the biggest and most well known round the world fps eSport

The Story of apEX or NBK or RpK ? (3 legends of the french cs)

Love this series. Plzz more of these videos!!

Despite his success he remains so humble. Massive respect. Astralis is not a name Counter-strike will forget for eons.

The era may well be over now... but we can't argue that Astralis 2018-2019 (dev1ce,dupreeh,magisk,glaive and xyp9x) were the greatest team to ever play.

I really enjoyed that, thank you. 👌

How's that Story of NBK coming along?

I always remember the monk in this movie "Da Vinci Code" when I see idol Magisk.

somehow you guys can make the bad side a part of the package.. no negativity, good job at covering this

The G is pronounced like the one in the word 'Good', not like 'geez' nad words like that. but you're saying it right

Stopped Watching blastproseries for this and it was worth it :).

The story of The Content King Tarik “Tarik” Celik?

story of allu

Best esport content creator.

The Story of Canadian would be cool. (From R6S EG)

Man this hit hard, so much love for Magisk!!

13:36 You can see Gla1ve bravely displaying his unpopular world believes

Since then he has won another major and a #5 place in the HLTV top 20

the heart this kid put in his game is so amazing

Anyone reamber the great days with device the best best in the world who carried these team through the darkest times as a fan of I will never forget him

It's nearly the end of 2020 and they still haven't stopped winning

I simple man I see good video about good player I click

Yet another great story from this channel... 👍

I remember when everyone was wondering who joins Astralis after Kjaerbye going, almost no one thought about Magisk. Me and a friend safe called Magisk and we were not disappointed he was a great addition to the team.

"I'm feeling thank you"

Honestly Magisk is in my top 3 of worlds best players. He is ultra consistent and the ONLY reason people talk about Zywoo and S1mple, is because those two have to carry their team more. With Magisk he has 4 starplayers on his team and thus he does not have to carry so hard. CS:GO is not a game of sick 1v3, but more often about teamplay and consistency and for THAT REASON, Magisk is one of the worlds ABSOLUTE best players. And certainly the worlds most underrated player.

great fucking video, makes me actually happy af for him

Dupreeh pls! He has a fantastic story!!

Best team to ever play this game

this video is simply amazing

The amount of times liquid was destroyed in this video

we guys who have an eye for skill always knew Magisk would succed.

Can you guys have a story about Faze Rain?

Another brilliant video. Keep it up guys. Your "The story of....." is the best

that shit almost made me cry

I heard of him when he was playing with NaToSaPhiX in that team with lekr0. The man seems to be around really good players, and made it to the pro scene too!

I have waited for this in a long time

One man's trash is another man's treasure

Gotta feel happy for him

Magisk is the danish word for magic

Now they are 3-peaters !!

Great production 😎🔥

goddamn every single one of your videos gives me tingles

For those wondering 9:29 is the correct way of pronouncing Magisk

Magisk was really the final piece for this team
