apEX’s favorite ZywOo moment: “He put shox and kennyS in the trash”

On Thorin's Reflections podcast, apEX revealed his unusual pick for his favorite moment alongside the prodigious ZywOo.

On Thorin’s Reflections podcast, apEX revealed his unusual pick for his favorite moment alongside the prodigious ZywOo.

It will be weird, but the beginning [was my favorite ZywOo moment], when you understand that this guy is special.

Despite playing alongside CS’s greatest talents, apEX was shocked by ZywOo’s talent.

I’ve seen all in France with shox and kennyS, but this guy put all those players in the trash.

ZywOo carried Vitality to their first Major appearance

Despite ZywOo playing his best CS in 2026, apEX went back all the way to 2019 to find his favorite memory of the greatest French CS player of all time.

I remember the minor in 2019, we would never [make it to] this Katowice Major without [ZywOo]. He fully wrecked this Valiance team, while we were so bad, he did like 40-bombs on Inferno.

The map apEX was referencing was a 32-19 performance from ZywOo, in a must-win lower bracket match at the Minor. They only won that map 16-14 against up-and-coming huNter- and nexa.

I told [ZywOo] that sometimes I expect more from him. It’s normal for me to see ZywOo [get a double kill]. I know he’s capable of doing more.
