To Save, or Not to Save: The Rise of CS:GO's Most Anti-Climactic AWPer
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 09. 2021
- Every esport has that one, flashy role whose residents are rockstars. Mechanical maestros whose sole responsibility is to ship out savoury beatdowns.
And, lord knows, in Counter-Strike, it’s the AWPers.
From the flicks to the filthy nonos, there’s no denying that those who’ve been entrusted with the Mighty Green are the showstoppers of CS. Living, breathing highlight reels who’ll stop at nothing to churn out the most ludicrous clips imaginable.
Well, I mean all of them . . . save one.
Today, we’re here to pay our begrudging respects to - Dzhami ‘Jame’ Ali, the enigmatic AWPer who’s managed to cement himself as world-class not by taking fights but by avoiding them time and time again.
Despite being a more than capable fragger, Jame’s go-to instinct is never to lunge into battle. It’s to play with such passivity that, at the first sign of failure, he opts to retreat instead of retake. To save instead of slam. To instigate what the community calls . . . ‘Jametime’.

![ANALYSING THE MOST TALENTED PLAYER EVER IN CS feat. DONK [EN / PT / ES SUB]](/img/n.gif)
11:48 "he is going to climb the ladder" *proceeds to climb down the ladder* "you'd think".
That was a better save than all of jame's awp rounds
XD hahah
💀good one
XDDDDD
lmaoo
What’s shocking about Jame to me is not that he saves so much, it’s that he is the first person to save this much
I think shiro can be next jame.
@@deepsingh029 Sh1ro already beat every other awper in saving and baiting
@@fica1137 exactly. they always lose when ax1le is having a bad day.
@@karlsparrow9573 vertigo against liquid?
Dude I'm a Jame awper myself. It helps so much, I can have an AWP almost all rounds AND drop weapons for teamates!!!! Dying in CS is bad, period.
10:26 26 rounds, 9 deaths
He died less times than the enemy team won a round
To be honest, if I ever had a gaming career, you'd know it'd be successful if the Score Esports made a video on it.
Tell that to forsaken and kqly. But yeah on the bright side, sure.
Ehhhh
@@re1konn well child, those were made to show the losers and cheaters of esports. Doesnt do them good.
Unlikely, but there’s always a chance
@@xsanguine why do you keep calling people "kids or child"
Welp takes one to know one
it truly was Jame Time, congratulations to the MVP of the Rio major!
And fell the hell off right after the major.
1-16. Lost to G2, who didn't even make it to the rio major, to get last place in blast world finals
What a joke.
@@LukeSawardMusic yea G2 was horrible in that tournament, am i right?
@LukeSawardMusic G2 eliminated at IEM Rio 2022 16-4 by Gamerlegion and eliminated at IEM Dallas 2023 16-1 by Heroic who VP beat at the Major
@@nevize6660G2 eliminated by Gamerlegion 16-4 on Mirage at Rio 2022
i fail to see how thats relevant to either of the previous comments@@sn1pe34
3:15 ironically the meme reference "Dame Time" (Jame Time) means having the clutch gene to show up big on these crucial moments.
That's the point of the joke lol
Thank you, captain obvious
@@marco9561 i mean, this is an esports channel. i expect that alot of players wont know references to NBA
maybe Jame can awaken his cold bloodness
This man could even save my grades
Impossible...
@@CounterMS "You'd think."
-CS:GO eSports announcer
He could have, but your grade is G2 in finals
Jame probably won a lot of games because of his saves and people dont realize, Sadge.
The whole point of this video is to show that it's effective but boring. How could you miss on that?
Ok but S1mple, Degster, Sh1ro, Deko, El1an, m0nesy, xsepower, iDisbalance and Zorte better CIS awpers
he probably lost more because of it than he won
@@YunTaeGoO nope. Jame is an insane player and anytime he has AWP there’s a decent chance of winning the round. It makes sense not losing it in a 1v4 he won’t win.
I mean sure that’s possible, but you can’t claim that… it’s just as likely that if he didn’t save and sent it, he gets the kills wins the round, destroys the enemies economy, and they win matches they could have if he just went for it… or if he didn’t save as hard and got some exit picks, they win some matches because the enemies Econ gets messed up having to re buy
All are possible, but no one can say it for certain because only one option was taken, and no one can see alternate universes to see what the other outcomes would have been.
I always liked Jame. The meme made me like him even more tbh. Plus it makes twitch chat actually enjoyable for a series even though its still just spam.
The fact he just plays along with the meme makes me like him. Jame is pretty cool
Bruh who tf actually looks at twitch chat
@@thesnackbandit I peep it every once and a while. I don’t look if I’m on my phone though
if jesus saved like jame he would still be alive

@@xsanguine bro what
Holy sh1t!
"Is winning worth being hated" yes I'm payed by an organization to win and earn more money for winning Idagf if you don't like me.
true
I'm not sure about that. Have you watched The Kings Avatar? There are some companies that want media popularity instead of achievements.
@@gluttony8986 ive read it and yeah i get what youre saying. But it still depends on what the company is like. Also, I recommend for people who havent yet, please go read/watch kings avatar. Its really good.
@@xforce6213 they get at the bare minimum over 2k per lan and they get the prize money if they win... i don't see how it could go wrong playing safe, and even if they lose they got free advertisement which allows them to grow their own brands and make even more money, they lost nothing and as they say "any publicity is good publicity"
@@gluttony8986 i think a better example is shroud, wasn't particularly a very good competitive player but a very good personality outside of comp csgo
11:03 When KennyS said that he would save the awp instead of defusing, it reminds me a game when he actually did this lol
Thats why G2 did the video... To make fun of that game where it happened.
If pro plays are fairy tales, then Jame time is anticlimactic real life slap on the face!

And I still have no ______
It's 23rd
@@vinskiae closer
Who?
Major champion and MVP.
IT REALLY IS JAME TIME AND WE ARE JUST LIVING IN IT!
This reminds me of when I played CS 1.6 with 10 min rounds with a bunch of older guys who many were former soldiers. Camping wasn't an issue - staying alive was what was important - The most fun I've ever had with a computer. - But probably NO fun at all for spectators...
Jame is so underrated. People don't realize that he manages to play decently while he's also shotcalling and in PGL Stockholm he even clutched and carried so many rounds.
I have not played or watched cs go but from the clips and the stuff you talked about in my opinion personally it looks like Jame sees the bigger picture even for the next round
True, although it seems boring at times. To have an AWP in next rounds really helps the economy of team and the capability to compete in that next round. Additionally, adding Yekindar to VP as a supper aggressive and successful entry frager helped a lot to team dynamic.
Yeah, weapons like AWPs can be a huge hit to team finances so saving them is a big advantage. You might lose the round now but win yourself more rounds in the future off the back of a saved $5000
Imagine what if SANJI didn't drop awp for Jame, Jame savings would doubled at least.
About to happen as Sanji is out of VP
no SANJI for major, Jame no awp? lol
Jame is my idol. These strats just might work well with my 75fps 60hz lol.
you get 75 fps in 60hz? i get 40
I get 30fps and free tilt
@@NANI-hb8jo tip if you are on laptops.. remove the bottom shell and place on a cooling pad. $15-$20 on Amazon and will surely help a bit since laptop performance suffers from overheating.
And always thought jame was a joking version of save and not a real thing
Who's here after Jame won the major and the MVP?
I don't think i've ever laughed so much watching one of these videos. Well done.
Would've enjoyed some stats, like round save % of Jame against other awpers and stuff like that
Can you send me an imgur link with your profile picture
Zywoo : I'll just literally walk around & hits shots. That's my wall hacking brain ability.
Jame : Hold my Jame Time
That Liquid burn earned you a like. That was hilarious.
Watched this video in the afternoon, the same evening Outsiders/VP won a Major and Jame is the Major MVP!
Slow and steady does win the race… it’s Jame Time in Rio ❤
Seeing the new vp team is a bittersweet feeling. You know the team is heading towards a steady good direction, at the same time missing the vp’s golden 5
What “Golden 5”? The Polish employees of the Russian team, generously, had 3. If you think TaZ did anything, you clearly sucked at this game. Or are falling for Russian propaganda. Don’t know which one is worse.
@@Lybrel ayo chill dude
@@Lybrel i don’t even play cs. I just follow the competitive scene and btw u need to chill. Lol
@@Lybrel L reply
@@Lybrel how did you get from Taz "didn't do anything" to russian propaganda? that's some mental shit man
To be fair, watching this major, Jame has quickly become one of my favorite awpers
nice to see arT make an appearance, can't believe furia beat NIP with coach Guerri as their 5th.
If you're on a pistol save, getting a pick on a fully geared player and then fucking off is a pretty good result - 2700 for an AK, -1000 for armor/helmet, 1100-1200 for nades, it's at least a little sting to keep them from buying nonstop once you're back in, hopefully.
Jame is the closest player to how a chess master would play cs.
blitz (ihc player, was on the major) is a 2300 in chess (I think he is a Fide Master, and he is listed on their website)
@@chessnoob5279 dayum. Didn't know that
From meme to a major winner.
The "saves" on Jesus part caught me off guard. LMAO
"winning is great, but is it really worth being hated over"
Love your stuff and all your videos but to answer this stupid question.
Yes - It is definitely more important than being hated on, it's a competition with money on the line. If it works then why stop. If the fans don't like it, bad luck. We're not here to watch who's the most flashiest, we're here to see who is the best.
But they aren't the best ...
@@locroyal4400 lmao
eg: when astralis were kings, their style was eco-focused, reliable, by the numbers, & a lot of people hated them for being boring.
does that change that they dominated the era & redefined what 'good plays' were? not at all.
@@sjs9698 who said astralis was boring like ever? Wtf device top 3 awper xyp clutch Meister dupree god like spray almost always win aim duel with magisk boy insane aimer with glaive the mastermind who the fook said astralis was boring wtf 😂
@@sjs9698 astralis was known for being way ahead for their heavily nades usage in which every pros team copied like stacking nades on common spot
The clip at 14:17 where the casters are saying "hes going for the lottery with those noscopes" is extremely ironic considering its against Navi and s1mple constantly hits lucky noscopes and laddershots XD
I like way this way put together, great job team
Never heard of Jame but I'm a big fan now, great coverage
First good vid in a while. Well done!
the counter strike jesus just won a major
Truly their run was marked as a fluke bc of the “Krieg and AUG” Meta at the time and they truly just played greatly around Jame and Sanji
Jame basically is that teammate who saves on a 2 v 1
this is cool, whens the warowl video coming?
👀
@@theScoreesports :O
@@theScoreesports It's coming boys 8====0
@@theScoreesports you better make one . I will wait
Jame is the guy who saves his awp in last round.
"I think Jame is the second coming of Jesus and he will save my Pickem's . Sorry chat!"
Absolute chad words
He won the IEM RIO Major yesterday, the real Jame time!
Jame (and Virtus Pro as a whole) functions as the HBox of CS. Plays a passive playstyle in a game famous for aggressive actions, as such they are looked down upon in the community despite being really good.
What James need is a golf caster to hype him up
Not chess championship caster?
that first clip on train was so cool, he did everything right.
I had to save this video for the next day, so I don't fall asleep watching it. Yes, pun intended. Jame is sick tho, no doubt.
Passivity to perfect! Save time is Jame time!
I think in a weird way it’s good to have a team like this, it shows that patience instead of boldness is also a just as viable strategy.
It’s probably also true that their matches are a lot more technical and detail focused.
dude if you simply count over the course of a match how much money jame makes his team by saving and dropping weapons to his team every round it would shut all the haters up. at katowice this year there was a match on mirage where krimz went 13-2 in first half on ct side dropping for his teammates every round. guess who out-ecod him? jame. he has now ascended to the level where he just buys a p250 every round, drops his teammates, and picks up weapons from the floor.
"I'm gonna save all three beanbags"
Fuckin' legend
The economy is part of the game. Surprised it has taken someone this long to optimize this.
Well, Jame is my favorite player in VP. He has this cool vibes in him.
Its Truly Jame's time Major winner ✌
You’ll never catch this man dead with anything less than an AR
I think it's shocking that Jame is the exception and not the rule, you would expect this to be the norm in million dollar tournaments, but somehow the aggressive "pub" playstyle became the way to play a great awp - I'm thankful for it lmao
That Liquid roast was pure gold 🤣
hey, i play just like him for years.
you have full buy with awp. do you go for the 1v4 play, where you have like 15% chance of win, or save and survive 85% of the time and save $7k economy? I'd rather be consistent and reliable than be inconsistent
That Kenny clip is amazing
major winner
The forward to Upcomer's Video: The rise and fall and rise again of Jame
Finally a Major Winner!, deserved win!
i remember one time when i watch vp match, all vp players except jame are die in split second when they doing rush or something and the time still had like 1 minute or 50 second-ish i don't remember and it just turn out from CT vs T game to Hunting Jame game xD
Is that asuna clip the new tenz iceboz frenzy 4k
Man ur content is so good
this topic aged perfectly!
i kinda like watching the slow-paced, economy-focused CS matches more
Dimitri is just crushing it every time
Yeah that Liquid jab did not age great after their EPL group
Especially the most recent game against fnatic on dust2.
@@trollface9903 2nd rate teams beat 2nd rate teams every day. it's not that exciting :) liquid have always had great players, but the team only peaked to being top tier quite briefly.
@@sjs9698 it was a reference to how they pretty much won the OT from autosniper spam.
@@trollface9903 ah, ty - i didn't watch that match. thought liquid got pretty unlucky vs astralis - even as an ast. fan i think liquid deserved the win there. not sure how ast managed to scrape a win. :s
I want this dude to be my Financial adviser
This is vid was more interesting than any jame 1v3 out there
major winner now
and now he's in the CSGO rio final
Dame is the original time keeper, Jane time the young blood.
Jame time is a legend. Even his guides are on other level. Let's be real, he is a good player. Very good player.
16:25 Remember when tarik yelled "Nice save!"?
These videos are so nice, I’ve watched all of them lmao. Hopefully it keeps going until everyones story gets told.
Normal player - duel streak
Jame - save streak
nobody! this channel, just makes 20minute long video about Jame time, me, i am going to watch the whole thing...
Just came back after he won Rio Major 2022
It's not about winning, it's about not to lose
Jame just won a major
Its funny now because old VP used to be one of the more aggressive teams that you would see playing.
Jame saved us Pickem AGAIN... what a CHAD
Lmao are you srs? He is the reason the match was as close as it was. Couldn't hit any shots.
Boys, Find a woman who would cherish you the way Jame does to his AWP.
The kennyS jame time clip got me 😂
I just learned about this and i love this guy
JAME TIME with the clutch in the 15th quarter
Lord jame save me from my depression
It hurts me to see how close they sit to the screen
Bad time for the liquid joke, they are on fire in EPL
The Cautious Hero IRL
the best !!!!!!! the best saver in the game
Finally a youtuber that says straight out why he wants us to subscribe & like - MONEY BABY! GGWP
16:17 Jame got his revenge on NRG/EG
Nice save, baby!
And now he won major.
The MEGA villain we all love !
Jame e Art na mesma partida é tipo Anjo vs Demônio
