EliGE on legendary Norwegian: He’s the best pistol player in CS:GO history

The pistol rounds in Counter-Strike is a vital aspect of the game, with these rounds being played at the very start of the match or right after the switch. Pistol rounds are also what separate good players from legendary players, because in these rounds you cannot rely on a heavy arsenal or a stacked amount of utility.

But who is the best pistol player of all time? - If you ask the Liquid superstar, Jonathan “EliGE” Jablonowski, the answer is pretty simple.

- I think when most people think of the best pistol player, they immediately think of rain – And I agree with them. I think that rain is really insane with pistols, something he has been in most of his career. I felt that a lot of those rounds where you play against FaZe, he just starts off the match just 4k or 5k’s you, EliGE says to Rivalry CS:GO.
