With the long-awaited arrival of CS2 in September 2023, the iconic Counter-Strike: Global Offensive game has been put back on the shelf after more than ten years.
Counter-Strike 2 officially released!
As we say farewell to CS:GO, it would be foolish not to look back and honour the individual players who have shaped the entire competitive scene from the early days in 2012 to the conclusion in 2023.
And where better to start than with the players who have racked up the most kills throughout CS:GO’s 11-year lifespan. Topping the list is no other than the Polish star player and former Virtus.pro profile Janusz “Snax” Pogorzelski – being the only one to have reached 44 thousand total kills in CS:GO.
Looking down the list, it’s clear that longevity plays a huge role with most of the individuals within the top 20 being players who have been active since the very beginning.
