What’s the best way to kick off a clutch Counter-Strike play? By boosting up onto your opponent’s head, of course.
That’s what popular streamer Jaryd “Summit1g” Lazar did in this clip, which sees him face down a trio of counter-terrorists armed with only an AK-47 and a willingness to climb onto an enemy player’s shoulders.
The play is possible because of the flashbag at the beginning of the clip. Both Lazar and his nearest opponent are rendered blind and take cover behind a set of boxes. With the enemy crouching down in front of him, Lazar sees a golden opportunity to get a boost unbeknownst to the player doing the boosting.
Before the poor soul knows what’s happened, Lazar has gunned down both he and a teammate, leaving only one counter-terrorist left. One tightly controlled spray of bullets later and Lazar has pulled off one of the wilder clutch rounds you’ll see.
His reaction—“that just happened”—could hardly be any more appropriate. The only way he might have done better would have been taking a ride on his opponents shoulders while running across the bombsite. Maybe next time.
