CS2 has been a hyped esports title since its launch, and it cannot be denied that many players are trying to find their way to shine bright on the big stage this year. But, only a select few gets a chance to perform at a high level, and that says a lot about how CS2 has evolved into a highly competitive game with dedicated esports players striving to show off their best game.

Who are the Best CS2 Players for 2024?

The Counter-Strike competitive scene has been stronger than before, and it cannot be denied that these top players have played a huge role in molding the reputation of the Valve shooter game. Considering that there are a lot of known names who thrive on the big stage, one can say that the game is indeed reaching bigger heights, which definitely explains why CS2 is thriving at this point as one of the best esports titles in the game.

So far, 2024 has been a promising year, and there are a lot of players who have made a splash with promising adjustments to the new game. It cannot be denied that they deserve a lot of praise for their impressive feats in the game, which says a lot about their prominence in the game at this point in time.

Who are the best players in CS2 for 2024? Let’s break it down with this list:

1. Danil "donk" Kryshkovets

At this point, it cannot be denied that donk has become the greatest CS2 player at this point, and he is a prodigy like no other. His breakout year in 2024, capped by a brilliant all-around performance in IEM Katowice 2024, says a lot about how his game has evolved at a higher level, with Team Spirit seeing bigger strides as tournament favorites in almost every single run. If there’s a player who is somewhat generated from the labs of CS2 experts, this is definitely donk’s title for the taking. Considering that we are halfway through 2024 so far, it does seem that donk will likely continue his pace and even enter the GOAT conversations should he stay on that glorious path heading into December.

Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut

At this point, ZywOo may just well be the best player of all-time, but it is also arguable considering how his transition to CS2 hasn’t been easy, much like other players. Still, his role with Vitality might actually look like the pace that he needs to get back on track if he is going to redeem himself. But don’t let Vitality’s losses distract you from the fact that ZywOo is still one of the few players who can actually win a map alone without even using an AWP, and that makes him actually one of the best rifles in the game, and being rarely caught off guard is a strong skill in the game.

G2 Esports has enjoyed a lot of success this year thanks to m0NESY’s rise to prominence. The young AWPer has been praised for his success in the game when he started showing up in CS:GO. So far, m0NESY has been a mechanical marvel in the game, and his expertise with the AWP makes him a promising favorite to watch as he racks up crucial kills in the game. At the age of 18, there’s just more to expect from m0NESY heading into the coming years as he continues to hone his craft in the game, which is going to make it interesting as he seeks to establish his legacy in the game moving forward.

Robin “ropz” Kool

If you have been watching how FaZe Clan has thrived in the game, it cannot be denied that the team has ridden on ropz’s rise to prominence when he transitioned to CS2. He was walking in the park with every single game, and it is easy to say that the team has reaped the benefits of his quick transition to CS2 in just a snap. So far, many fans and players have been even open in seeing him as the best player in the game for this year at the very least. It has been quite easy for ropz to build on his games so far, even with frozen being added into the squad, which has not affected his impressive groove in the game so far.

It is hard to say that XANTARES has been quite the rifler he has been in CS:GO, but his impressive pace in CS2 has been ther best we’ve seen from him over the years, and at the age of 28, there is still more to look out from the Eternal Fire star at this point, and one can even say that he has definitely made his presence felt in the game now more than ever. XANTARES has managed to lead Eternal Fire in a promising victory this year in the CCT Season 1 Global Finals, which has definitely made him break into a star status, which explains why the Turkish star has seen bigger strides over the past few months and has clearly made his place known among the top stars of CS2 at this point.

Honorable Mention: Nikola "NiKo" Kovač

Regarded as the most mechanically skilled players in almost every single Counter-Strike iteration over the years, it cannot be denied that NiKo has evolved into one of the best players in the game, and it cannot be denied that his success in the game has made him a prominent icon to begin with. Still, it is easy to say that the G2 Esports star has managed to make his presence felt in CS2, bringing the might of his efficient game at the top of the stage when called upon, which makes him quite the star to watch in every big tournament that comes to unfold in the game. If you are not a fan of NiKo, then maybe you should reconsider rewatching the game at this point.
