Best CS2 Awpers
Top CS2 AWPers shape rounds with precision, strong ratings, and consistent impact. This overview gives you a clear look at the players who delivered and still delivers the most value with the sniper rifle in high-level matches.
Oleksandr “s1mple” Kostyliev, (BC.Game)
s1mple holds one of the highest career AWP impact ratings in top-tier play. He reached a 1.23 HLTV rating in CS2 events during 2024. He secures opening duels with strong frequency and keeps control in retake situations.
Florian “syrsoN” Rische, (No Team)
syrsoN reached a 1.15 rating in recent CS2 tournaments. His opening kill ratio stays positive in most events. He takes strong angles and limits risk with disciplined timing. Syrson proved that he is one of the best AWPers in past but currently his performance has declined and he also has no team.
Dmitriy “sh1ro” Sokolov, (Spirit)
sh1ro recorded one of the lowest death rates among all AWP players in past seasons. His 1.18 rating in CS2 events shows his value. He holds positions with patience and wins late-round duels with accuracy.
Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut, (Vitality)
ZywOo holds multiple MVP awards and maintains a 1.25 rating across top events. His clutch record stays among the best in the scene. He switches pace quickly and punishes overextensions.
Helvijs “broky” Saukants, (FaZe)
broky keeps a strong playoff record with a 1.12 rating across big tournaments. He hits fast shots in mid-rounds and stays reliable in key maps. His trading numbers show consistent support for entry players.
Ilya “m0NESY” Osipov, (Falcons)
m0NESY reached a 1.20 rating in recent CS2 matches. His opening kill attempts often lead to early control. He reacts fast and pressures opponents across the map.
Dzhami “Jame” Ali, (Parivision)
Jame holds a long history of positive AWP efficiency. His CS2 rating stays near 1.14. He protects team economy with smart decisions and often closes rounds with full utility.
Nicolai “device” Reedtz, (Astralis)
device owns four Major MVP awards and keeps strong form with a rating near 1.15 in CS2 events. His playstyle focuses on smart positioning and safe precision. He limits unnecessary duels and stays consistent across long series. Although device is nearing his career end he is still considered one of the TOP AWPers in the world.
Joshua “oSee” Ohm, (NRG)
oSee improved his rating to about 1.10 in recent CS2 events. He takes early duels on key choke points and supports aggressive setups with strong flick shots. His CT side impact remains high. Currently oSee is playing at NRG but is benched due to his decreased performance. He is still considered one of the TOP AWPers in the world.
Casper “cadiaN” Møller, (OG)
cadiaN delivers leadership and stable AWP results. His rating stays near 1.08 with strong mid-round calls. He secures impact kills in clutch moments and keeps structure inside executes.

blameF CS2 settings, stats and whether BIG's captain is too good for tier two
One reply under a Reddit post called "BlameF stats since joining BIG", at the end of January 2026, put it bluntly: "BlameF is insanely overqualified to be in T2." He'd been on the team for three weeks. People were already arguing about whether his numbers meant anything.
People are still having that argument in October 2026, and the numbers keep giving them reasons to. Benjamin "blameF" Bremer is a Dane, born 10.06.1997, who made HLTV's top 20 four years running (2020-2023), and he calls for BIG, ranked #33 in HLTV's world ranking of 26.10.2026.
blameF's CS2 settings, per his ProSettings page checked on 25.10.2026, are 400 DPI at 1.55, which works out to 620 eDPI. That's a slower setup than NiKo's or ZywOo's, and it hasn't stopped him rating above 1.2 on three different teams.
Aleksib CS2 settings and the captain's road from ENCE to a Major
Mirage had just gone 2-13. One map left at PGL Major Copenhagen, karrigan's FaZe on the other side of the stage, and a Finnish in-game leader who had already lost one Major final, five years earlier, with ENCE. NAVI won Inferno 13-3 on 31 March 2024. Aleksi "Aleksib" Virolainen had his Major, and Finland had its first Major winner.
He's still calling for the same organization. As of 08.10.2026, HLTV lists Aleksib as a starter on Natus Vincere next to iM, b1t, w0nderful and makazze, with B1ad3 as coach. It hasn't been a good week. NAVI went out of ESL Pro League Season 24 in 9th-11th place after a 1-2 loss to PARIVISION on 07.10.2026.
If you only came for the Aleksib CS2 settings, here's the short version. 800 DPI times 1.06 sensitivity gives 848 eDPI, played at 1440x1080 on 4:3 stretched, according to his ProSettings page last updated 07.10.2026 (we checked it on 08.10.2026). The rest of this page puts that desk next to the thing that matters more for a captain: where he called, what he won, and how little of it depended on his own aim.
apEX CS2 Settings - Four Majors, One Vitality Desk
Four Major trophies. Twenty-two Majors played. Still calling the rounds for Vitality. That is Dan “apEX” Madesclaire as of 01.10.2026 - France, IGL, STARTER on the HLTV sheet next to ZywOo, flameZ, mezii, and ropz.
Not Apex Legends. Not a battle-royale reticle guide. This page is the Counter-Strike player.
HLTV tags him 4× Major winner: Cluj-Napoca 2015 with Envy, then Paris 2023, Austin 2025, and Budapest 2025 with Vitality. The same card lists 22 Majors played and a quarter-final exit at IEM Cologne Major 2026. Desk math before the jersey chapter: 400 DPI × 1.91 sens = 764 eDPI - ProSettings last updated 22.09.2026.
