After ESL Pro League Season 21<\/strong>, Mathieu ‘ZywOo<\/strong>‘ Herbaut has become the Counter-Strike 2 player with the most MVP awards from HLTV. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Team Vitality defeated MOUZ in the ESL Pro League S21 Grand Finals with a commanding 3-0 record. This was the team’s second trophy of the year, putting them one tournament win away from winning the Intel Grand Slam. Vitality’s flawless victory highlighted ZywOo’s incredible performance.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
ZywOo finished ESL Pro League Season 21 with a 1.43 rating, 90 ADR and 1.14 KPRW over the team’s 15 maps. Only two maps were in the red throughout the tournament. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
ZywOo now has the most career HLTV MVP awards<\/a> after winning one at ESL Pro League S21. This puts him at 22 total medals, including 15 big events. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
ZywOo has overtaken the record from Oleksandr ‘s1imple<\/strong>‘ Kostyliev, who has 21 total MVPs, 14 being from big events.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
“I wasn’t really thinking about [the MVP award] going into this tournament. I know everyone on this team could pop off in the finals,” ZywOo told HLTV<\/a> after the victory. “I knew if I just played my A-game and just waited, I thought in the next two or three tournaments I could get it so I wasn’t focused on it.” <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
For ZywOo, he said he goes into tournaments thinking more with a team mentality rather than focusing on his individual performance. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
Still, he couldn’t deny that he was happy to win the award and beat s1imple. But winning won’t stop him from continuing to grind. <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
“I won’t stop just because I’m one in front of s1mple,” he said. “I will show I can go like 25, 30 MVP. I’ll keep grinding and never stop playing with this confidence.” <\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
ZywOo has now won two MVPs in 2025 after also showing his CS2 prowess at IEM Katowice.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n
