Samuel "Notorious" Oest, former rifle star of GameOnline and esu.swe/Adrenaline , is the star of the 225th Episode of 'Reflections'.

Notorious was a true star rifler on LAN in the earliest years of CS competition, where even some legendary names were still acclimbatising to playing under pressure and working to reach the top. He competed with title contenders GoL and Adrenaline and managed placings like 3rd at CPL Winter 2001, 3rd at CPL Summer 2002 and 4th at CPL Winter 2004, all unofficial majors in the game.

This interview was recorded on the 20th of October 2022.
