The first season of 2024 concluded earlier this month, marking the start of the player break after an astounding six months of competition.
With top-tier competition on hold, it’s a perfect time to reflect on the standout performers so far this year. In an earlier article, we highlighted Spirit’s young phenomenon Danil “donk” Kryshkovets as the top-ranked player, following his impressive breakthrough onto the biggest stage of the game.
Who has been the standout performers in CS2 this year?
But who have been the top performers on each map of the active pool? That’s the question we answer in this article, where we list the five highest-ranked players on the eight maps in action this year: Inferno, Vertigo, Dust2, Ancient, Anubis, Overpass, Nuke, and Mirage.
Hallzerk masterclass on Vertigo
Looking through the stats, some numbers one rankings may catch your eyes with a certain Norwegian by the name of Håkon “hallzerk” Fjærli showcasing a stellar 1.41 Rating on Vertigo, followed up an – otherwise often struggling – Sergey “Ax1Le” Rykhtorov, who’s leading the charts on Overpass.
The statistics reveal some eye-catching performances, such as Complexity’s Håkon “hallzerk” Fjærli, who boasts a stellar 1.41 rating on Vertigo. Another standout is Sergey “Ax1Le” Rykhtorov, who, despite struggles elsewhere, leads the charts on Overpass.
Unsurprisingly, the 17-year-old Danil “donk” Kryshkovets features prominently across multiple maps.
