  • Adil ‘ScreaM’ Benrlitom was once one of Counter-Strike’s most frightening talents.
    He was a mechanical god, he possessed aim like no other, and he could find a headshot in a heartbeat. ScreaM was supposed to be a Counter-Strike god, but he didn’t reach the heights that many expected of him.
    And when his career looked to be winding down, Valorant allowed him to hit the reset button. And now, The Headshot Machine is back at the top.
    This is The Rise, Fall and Rise Again of ScreaM.

      @@xythiera7255 i doubt he would fall off in valorant. the reason why in cs his aim became irrelevant is because of the nature of cs utilities, everyone has the same util and the lineup and usage are almost limitless. However, in valorant, util is split into different categories and simplified into abilities, making it far easier to use, thus scream would also likely be able to match up with the so called "optimal way" to play

  • @fluph90
    @fluph90 Před 2 lety +29

    Scream's+ aim was never bad. He was good back in cs, because when the game is new the aimmers prevail and dominate the game, tactics are not that well-known to everybody and you can counter them after you get screwed a few times. When cs became a lot popular and played by a lot, not only that he probably lost some motivation, but game was becoming more and more complex, and tactics start to matter a lot more. If he learnt that from cs times, he probably will have a pretty long valorant career, if not, he will be outgunned by others.

    • @lighty6401
      @lighty6401 Před 2 lety +3

      If CSgo was new for him, it was new for everybody else too. He defeated people who were there since 1.6. The numbers he put up were never bad even during 2018. The worst strike of his career was when he was kicked from G2 without any valid reason, since he was the MVP and the star player of G2. He said it himself that the news came to him as a surprise because he never expected that. From that day, his confidence somewhat seemed falling as he didn't take the fights that we knew he'd have won 90% of the time. Even during his last days in csgo, he was still popping off. The problem was the inability of teams to use his potential properly.

      @@fluph90 Perhaps u didn't read properly what I wrote. I never wrote about fragging alone. I specifically mentioned about teams that couldn't use his potential. In an interview, he himself said that he was being given roles that didn't fit his playstyle. Would a team send get_right to get an opening frag every round? Of course no since he's a lurker, not an entry fragger. ScreaM also said that his strongest positions were being taken away by other teammates and positions that involved risk (read info gathering) were given to him. Being an entry fragger, such positions weren't suitable for him. He began losing his confidence to take open duels like he used to during his early days. Furthermore, in envyus, the team relations weren't very good regarding the matches. They were having personal issues and several other problems that couldn't be solved properly. They did achieve some success with envy, but the early exit from Eleague majors 2018 was a big blow to the team. Also if u download and watch the matches of envy you'll find a big difference since he had to change his entire play style to adapt to something he wasn't comfortable with.

He's probably didn't care much about tactic and line up because he's really confident with his aim thus made big teams afraid of signing him since his utility is low. You need an org and team mates that can utilized his 1 dimensional play. Valorant also perfect for him since spraying is punished by random nrg.

    I don't know why i've randomly thought of this and it's kinda out of topic, but ScreaM reminds me of James Harden in NBA. Harden never won a championship just like ScreaM, yet they both have very special talents; ScreaM is a great Aimer/Fragger while James Harden is a crazy Sharpshooter who scores more than 30 points in a game(in his prime). My conclusion here is that, every sports whether it's physical or digital, there is always that one person who's super talented yet suffers the curse of not winning any championships (For now).
