he best counter-strike team(s) ever.
Before I get started, lets first figure out who the best teams in cs ever were. If you think that they play(ed) source, thats a big laugh. If you think that they are any American teams, thats also a big laugh. Give up?
Most cs "historians" would agree that Scandinavia has historically produced the best players and teams in all of cs history. A top 15 cs players list would only have 2-3 americans as compared to 10 or more scandinavians.
If the scandinavians would have put their best 5 players together in a team they would have been unstoppable, however they were split amongst three teams: NoA, sK, and NiP. These teams trade (and have traded) allstars rather frequently, but I'll present their best rosters, and the closest videos to them.
NoA won the cpl in 2004 after replacing bsl and knoxville with XeqtR and elemeNt. The top 4 players in the 2004 roster are always listed amongst the best in the world, and currently Shaguar and Method both play for teams in CGS. bsl and knoxville were good, however they pale in comparison to XeqtR and elemeNt. The video is of the 2003 team and roster: http://files.filefront.com/The+Fellowship+...;/fileinfo.html

NiP seemed to have a star studded roster in winter 2005 when they released this video, however they came in fourth @ Winter CPL. They did win in 2001 with XeqtR, medion and hyb in place of walle, zet, and ins. Zet currently plays for the LA Complexity in the CGS.

Out of the players mentioned, everyone is scandinavian except for shaguar and method. Potti, Heaton, medion, XeqtR, elemeNt, SpawN, fisker, and ahl are always considered some of the best 1.6 players and always showed it.
So now I'll ask you guys, who would your dream 1.6 team be? Who are your favorite players out of the ones shown?
