Twistzz is one of CS:GO’s biggest names. He’s a major champion and a two-time grand slam winner. But to earn those accolades he had to move across an ocean and leave his team and region behind.
He began his career as NA's Counter-Strike prodigy, and after rising to some of the highest highs the region has ever seen, he found himself hitting a wall. He just wasn't winning anymore.
He wasn't challenged.
To reignite his fire and get back on top, Twistzz had to leave everything behind and take a leap into the unknown.

This episode's featured cocktail is the Beach Bucket.
Recipe:
1.5 parts Kraken® Gold Spiced Rum
.5 part Coconut Rum
3 parts Limeade
1 part Pineapple Juice
Build over ice in Kraken Beach Bucket and garnish with frozen pineapple chunks.
The only player that will ever be a double grand slam winner in CSGO. And he did it with 2 different rosters from 2 different regions.
bros like 2 different things
this into the dark series is really growing on me, yall really step up your game as every ep drops
Without a doubt the best NA player of all time. He absolutely thrived overseas and became one of the best in the world. Such a fkn great player and he seems like an even better person.
That Kraken product placement was so in your fucking face xD
Undoubtedly the best player from NA of all time
stewie accomplished the same accolades as twist in a shorter amount of time. even if you think twist is the best, stewie has gotta be a close second. plus stewie did it all in NA. twist didnt
@@cstinybaby Twistzz won 2 grand slams and he did it on 2 different teams
Twistzz is better
@@cstinybabytwistzz>stewie/tarik imo
@@cstinybabyelige is a better player then stewie ever was also having a shorter career isnt a good thing
some of what dimitri said i feel can be heard in twistzz interviews before he got the second grand slam like all players say “i’m just gonna play my game etc.” ,but he was like nah it’s mine that’s what i’m here for
Watching this right after his recent with in Sydney I'd say it all paid off
I love twistzz's crisp clean aim. Great rifler
I honestly got goosebumps when Twistzz left Faze... it didnt made snese to me... everything was going so well for the team... finally... ❤I only wish him succes and good luck. Thank you for making this game so emotional... for me at least...
Good video and I just wanna give props to the production team for how high quality the set looks despite Danny and Dimitri kinda just sitting in a hallway with a rolling rack of rum next to them. I only caught on because I was wondering how much y’all were spending on a set before realizing it wasn’t nearly as high end as production makes it look.
i love the set and how much love and work is behind every single video :)
I remember watching the faze vs c9 game and was so conflicted, growing up i always was a c9 fan but i love the faze players twistzz and ropz are some of my favorite pro cs players
After the complete roster reset for c9 in 2019/2020 I just couldn’t stay behind them anymore. It’s not the same team it was in 2015-2018
Twistzz, the goat of NA! Much love from home 🇨🇦
Hello fellow Canadian. What province you from?
@@IridescentOnYT British Columbia, yourself?
@@rraaiidd yo what's good neighbor, I'm from Alberta!
@@IridescentOnYT Twistzz is as well! Very cool, man :)
@@rraaiidd Really? I didn't know that! Thank you for letting me know! Have a wonderful day man!
i wonder who sponsored this video
the history talk is amazing more content like this pls❤❤❤❤
the ad placement in the bud is hilarious man they’re thirsty 😂😂😂
keep up the great videos
There was a time when watching faze that no matter the situation if ropz and twistzz were alive there was a chance they win the round.... crazy time
Need more Esports stories
Russell the Love Muscle! Proud to see a Canadian excel in the best FPS out there
It was such a great video and then dimitri showed up
This is my type of CS content.
Now he can add Sydney to that list 🎉🔥🔥
As a Canadian he does us proud!
Production top teir and the storytelling, with the personal connections to the story (chef's kiss)
He was truly to good for NA. I remember when he first came on the scene people were doubting him
Those fruit chunks in the drinks look soo goooood
I legit never seen this dude whiff a shot
Would be awesome if you guys could make a video on robban's career since he's retired
You got my support because you have "Kraken" as advertiser :P
Twistzz broke my heart when he beat my C9 in that pro league final
i like these videos, i just wish they didnt have everyone drinking the rum as if all the branding in the background and in the transitions
details on that drink lmao
What has to be said: ropz took a pay cut in order to join FaZe, as he saw more opportunities there than mouz
Shoutout to the DEEP SIP at 7:50 🥃 😂
I find it hilarious that he's a star player but also the support player
your best video you've ever made.
Every time I see cobblestone, I shed a tear. :(
The Magician™
Best NA csgo player all time and top 5 rifler all time too
top 2 rifler
Nice production but the 3rd cam which is handheld is not that necessary. I think the 2 static shot is better and much cleaner and more professional to watch. The handheld cam is a little bit messy because it reflects on the window glass.
Representing Canada 🇨🇦 let’s gooooo
I may be wrong but twistz has more trophy than simple
What about an "into the dark" about Astralis? They left TSM to form their own organization and win three majors.
Four majors 😄
@@emir.kurdic1337Their 1st major wasn't part of their "era"
they technically never left tsm for astralis. TSM sold there team to them. its kinda like what happened with rain from a long time ago he kept bouncing teams because that team was sold to another org multiple times
The GOAT!!!!!
dimitri will have no accent one second and then sound like 16:32 the next lol
are we getting the legendary fable of EE sama on this show or what?
Twistzz best na player
that kraken dark rum placement was so distracting.
should of done this video one or two months before iem cologne and dallas
Into the Dark series is great for me. I am no longer a kid so I don't feel a kid on this format.
Thats one good ass sponsor you guys got! Kraken is by far one of the best rums there is! :D
16:15 who tf spilled the drink?
I feel like this same video has been made like atleast 3 times by this channel
Where the hell do you watch export events a?
Does anyone know what Player exactly he is talkin about at 7:59?
Stewie
Have you noticed this video is sponsored by kraken rum?
Full Circle for Russell
at the end Liquid did relocate to EU
Aim god
Let me guess that player he wanted removed from liquid was stewie?
one day the souless ginger will actually take a sip of the drinks he makes....
damn bro
I miss good liquid so much
Interview quality is good. I would recommend not using a gimbal and put that camera on a tripod and slider. Gimbal is a bit distracting. Just nitpick from video nerd.
yes
🇨🇦🐐
no one talkin' about how fly my boi lookin sat at the bar?
Its almost like esports is a team sport...
In my opinion elige has just a bit more raw skill but twistzz became the better player overall. In terms of accomplishments there is no denying that twistzz is the best one.
Wait. I thought everyone agreed that Elige is dogshit? Or maybe thats just Europeans as our skills are much higher than NA.
@@sexntunawhat world do u live in
If you asked me about the 5 goats of csgo Twistzz would be there
These videos are good but why are you guys interviewing other people that work at the score pretty weird
>A certain unruly roster member
Hmmmm... who could they mean? Elige? NAF? Nah it has to be nitr0, right? Kappa
At the end of the day NA only have 1 Major 😅😅😅.
canada finest
i still feel like he wants to come back to liquid one day and i hope he will
but for now... Easter island head.
I love twistzz❤ but to be fair NA scene is nothing... Stewie2k for a bit... Elige.... a few others... but nothing serious. Im really glad he left the region otherwise he could never reach his full potential. He's a freaking beast and i really hope his career will only go up from here.❤ I only wish i had his muscle memory and mechanics.
Its 69 coz its rain.
that bar scenes are stupid
Who is the sponsor for this video?
Jameson whiskey if I'm correct
@@laggybear829 mate i think you need to learn how to read obvious sarcasm
@@maximilianwonschik1304 It isn't Jameson ?
really guys, an alcohol advertisement?
Not going to lie, the continuous super overdone product placement really took away from the story. Pausing to take a drink mid sentence repeatedly and the constant different camera angles just to show off yet another logo ruined this for me. Im not sure if you were told to place just THIS much... but im so turned offof ever buying this ever again from this. Thanks :)
I second this
the advertisment and the use off the same clips made this so bad to watch gj
First
havent you guys already made this video... like twice? desperate for content lol
unruly teammate eh?
The sponsor deal with Kraken is so off puttning. I cant watch these videos anymore.
People saying the goat of na 🤦🏻♂️Stewie is by far better way better from the start and even at the end still better won a major with only 2 real tier one players and would always carry the old c9 roaster something twist couldn’t do
Like how can you guys forget what stew did
of course twistzz move helped him. If youre put in a tank of sharks when youve been fighting nemos your entire life in NA. NA FPS is a joke in all games 😅😂
Did you really need to repeat so many clips?
Whats with the re-upload?
its not, they remake the same content over and over again.
very mid tpoic, talk about coldzeras animal abuse charges
These guys are so clueless its frustrating
Content is good, but the production quality is bad (lighting, camera shots, etc)
good video but i hate the way you romanize everything. I mean twistzz was instrumental neither in the major nor in kato. It was more often broky , rain and ropz that rlly shined in the important moment
Love the production, but the narratives being pushed here are just false.
the fake conversation that served as product placement was a big turn off tbh, love the content otherwise
I hate the supposedly expert dude when they’re doing the one on one interview. Like bro your opinion sucks and does not matter, just actually document what happened and carry on.
content is fire as always, but i cant help but feel awkard watching this. it supposed to be like a conversation but theres too much of the production stuff happening in our faces to feel like one. the camera men moving around and reflections. all the cameras in the background. maybe im nitpicking but its taking away from the experience for me
Disappointing amount of product placement in this video, it actually took my focus away from the topic of the video and made me actually less likely to buy kraken rum. Having sponsors is okay but this is way too much.
