In a remarkable display of skill, 17-year-old Alex 'poiii' Nyholm Sundgren has set a new kill record in Counter-Strike 2. He achieved an impressive 39 kills in EYEBALLERS' 13-11 victory on Anubis against Zero Tenacity in CCT Season 2 Europe Series 11, surpassing the previous record set by Danil 'donk' Kryshkovets.
'poiii' was described by Jesper 'JW' Wecksell as "Sweden's next superstar" when he joined EYEBALLERS in July. However, he has not quite fulfilled that expectation, as he has only achieved an average rating of 1.01 over 98 maps.
In the Anubis map, 'poiii' showcased some of his potential with an impressive 23-7 K-D score while playing on the CT side against Zero Tenacity. Despite his individual performance, his team struggled, and they ended up with a 5-7 score.
In an impressive display of skill, the Swede was on pace to surpass the existing 38-kill record as he secured 12 kills in the initial six rounds of the second half, amassing a remarkable 35-9 kill-death ratio at 10-8. However, his momentum waned as Zero Tenacity mounted a comeback, and it was only in round 24 that he surpassed donk's record, concluding the game with an outstanding 39-15 score.
The player known as 'donk' currently holds the LAN record for most kills with an impressive 38, while Lucas 'Lucaozy' Neves and Mason 'Lake' Sanderson are tied for the next highest online with 37 kills each.
