dupreeh: ZywOo is better than device
The Vitality rifler can still be "baffled" when seeing what his French teammate can do on the server.
Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut and Nicolai “device” Reedtz are both generational talents in CS:GO with the two AWPers having cemented their names in history through their continuous top level on the highest stage of the game.
But who is best? ZywOo or device?
One would think that the best person to ask this question was someone who has played with and against both players – maybe Peter “dupreeh” Rasmussen. And that was exactly what Chad “SPUNJ” Burchill did in the latest episode of HLTV Confirmed, where the Vitality Dane gave the following answer.
- I love Nicolai [device] but I have to say ZywOo, dupreeh said. I don’t think there’s a debate. Yes, Nicolai won so many things together with us and he’s a really, really strong player, and has been a top three player for multiple years – but Zywoo is something different, dupreeh stated and continued to praise ZywOo:
- The way ZywOo just sees and feels the game is really incredible. He just really feels the game in a way I’ve never seen anyone feel it before. It’s like when he gets information in the game, it takes his brain half a second to understand exactly what to do. And then on top of that, he’s hitting nuts hots, and he’s also a really good teammate overall. He has the whole package. (…) I’m just happy that he’s on my team.
