Patrik Lindberg (born June 10, 1988), known by the pseudonym f0rest, is a Swedish esports player who is considered to be one of the best Counter-Strike players in the world. Having played competitively since 2005, Lindberg has been widely regarded within the esports scene as the greatest player in Counter-Strike history.[4] Lindberg is best known for his four years of tenure on the Fnatic roster, which he helped bring to prominence as the dominant team of 2009,[5] during which year the team broke the record for the highest-earning team in Counter-Strike history.[6] Near the end of 2010, Lindberg left Fnatic and joined SK Gaming,[7] which he remained with until July 2012.[8] Soon after, he transitioned over to Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and joined the team Ninjas in Pyjamas.[9] In 2020, Lindberg left NiP to join Dignitas.
