Best CS2 players to watch at BLAST Premier Spring Final 2024

m0NESY - G2 Esports

Even though we're just halfway into the season and plenty could happen still, G2's star AWPer Ilya "m0NESY" Osipov is a big favorite to win the best player of the year award. The 19-year-old is having an amazing year all around despite G2's subpar results. He also recently helped them win IEM Dallas earlier this month.

Watching m0NESY is a guarantee of entertainment as he's hyper-aggressive with the AWP and is just as good with the AK-47 and M4A4.

NiKo - G2 Esports

While m0nESY looks like the best player in G2 this season, Nikola "NiKo" Kovač's firepower can't be underestimated. The Bosnian superstar has been consistently outplaying some of the best AWPers in the world with his rifling skills since 2015 and has found his rhythm in CS2 after a slow start at the end of 2023.

The beauty of watching NiKo play is that not only does he have the skills to get two entry kills onto a bomb site, but he's also amazing in clutches. We can't recommend watching NiKo enough, especially if you're a main rifler in CS2.

Donk - Team Spirit

Think of Danil "donk" Kryshkovets as a teenager who defies how high-level competitive CS2 is meant to be played. The 17-year-old star from Team Spirit is the only player we know that can run up Mid in CT-side Mirage in multiple rounds and consistently get multikills.

The way CS2's mechanics work and donk's raw skill are a perfect match. The only thing bad about watching donk is realizing that it's almost impossible to replicate his plays unless you're running cheats —please don't.

ZywOo - Vitality

Vitality's franchise player Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut is the only player that truly posed a threat to Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyljev's GOAT status in CS:GO and now that the Ukrainian has stepped away from competition, everyone expects ZywOo lead the way in CS2.

Even though Vitality haven't won anything in 2024 thus far, ZywOo's form has been nothing but impeccable and there's a considerable chance Vitality break the losing streak at the BLAST Premier Spring Final. Why? Because they won the last two BLAST finals of 2023.

Broky - FaZe Clan

It's hard to pick just one player from FaZe Clan, as they're the official home of international superstars in CS esports. However, it would feel wrong to not choose Helvijs "broky" Saukants.

The Latvian AWPer often flies under the radar as he doesn't play as aggressive as the likes of m0NESY and ZywOo, for example. However, that doesn't mean broky can't have a heyday against them. On the contrary, when broky is feeling it, almost nobody can stop him.

If FaZe show some improvements at the BLAST Premier Spring Final and make a deep run, it's almost certain that broky will be on top of that fragging charts and adding clutches to his list — he already won 22 out of 31 this year.

That's all for now. Stay tuned to esports.gg for more BLAST Premier Spring Final 2024 content.
