@TheDailyDefuse @FalconsEsport @TeamFalconsGG kyousuke for sure. heavygod maybe?

[BILLY @BILLY__TV]

finally someone said it. kyousuke ranked at 22 is a joke. 3 is a little high, but I can't argue with his impact rating

🚨 The Daily Defuse - #CS2 Top 10 of 2025 🚨

3. Maxim "kyousuke" Lukin - @FalconsEsport @TeamFalconsGG

I already know the comments are going to be a warzone.

"He’s only been in Tier 1 for six months" or "You can't put him above m0NESY!"

I really don't care. HLTV has him at #22. I have him on the podium. You are letting the algorithm lie to you. The current HLTV formula punishes players who die first and rewards players who save.

Let's look at the tape.

The "God Stat" (Impact)
kyousuke ended 2025 with a 1.42 Impact Rating. For context? ZywOo had a 1.43 when he was undisputed #1 in the world. kyousuke is putting up "Best in the World" impact numbers, but his ranking is tanked simply because he’s the one taking the risks.

The Rookie Reality
I know the award went to molodoy yesterday. There's no denying he's a beast, but he’s an AWPer in a system built to protect him. kyousuke is a rifler who dry peeks into sites first and still puts up superstar numbers. To do this at 17? It's the most impressive rookie season since donk. Period.

The Engine
Opening Rating: 1.19 (Elite)
Win % after Opening Kill: 72.9%

The Verdict
The "official" list rewards surviving. My list rewards killing.

m0NESY is the perfect turret. ropz is the perfect lurker. But kyousuke is the engine. If you think a 1.42 Impact Rating belongs at #22, you aren't watching the games. He runs in, opens the site, and leaves a trail of bodies behind him. The kid is a flat out monster. Put some respect on his name.

EMERGENCY MARKET UPDATE 🚨

Strategy: Just bought 50 Donk gold stickers at a recent high on a Saturday night because he said "I am feeling thank you."

Hype is at maximum. Prices are inflated. It is the worst possible time to buy.

So naturally, I went all in. See you in the homeless shelter or the yacht club. 💸

4. Ilya "m0NESY" Osipov (Falcons)

The flashiest AWPer on the planet.

The Good: #1 in the world for Clutch Percentage (1vX). Single-handedly kept games interesting.

The Bad: He falls to #4 because he spent half of 2025 saving AWPs in 1v5s. While the Top 3 were dominating rounds from the start, m0NESY was playing "Retake Simulator" because his teammates were already dead.

The world's most expensive backpack. 🎒

Two types of Counter-Strike this weekend:

Option A: Belgrade. Tuxedos. Polite applause. "And the winner is..." 🤵🍷 #HLTVawards

Option B: Vegas. Energy drinks. Screaming. "PLANT THE BOMB YOU BOT." 🥤👹 #FML2026

We know which one we're watching. (Both. We are addicted).

🚨The Daily Defuse - #CS2 Top 10 of 2025🚨

5. Danil "molodoy" Golubenko (FURIA)
Raw Rating: 1.19
Notable Stats: 0.52 DPR (Best in World), +2.70% Round Swing, 1.27 Big Event Rating

The "Brazilian Savior" hails from Kazakhstan. When FURIA signed the then-19-year-old from AMKAL in April 2025, critics questioned the language barrier and his lack of Tier-1 experience. Danil silenced them immediately. He didn't just join FURIA; he stabilized them.

While m0NESY and ZywOo are defined by their movement and aggression, molodoy reinvented the "turret" AWP style for CS2. His 0.52 Deaths Per Round is statistically absurd for a rookie, indicating a level of positioning discipline that usually takes veterans a decade to master. He rarely misses the "easy" shots and almost never over-peeks, providing FURIA with a constant man-advantage safety net.

His impact was most visible at IEM Chengdu, where he earned his first MVP. In the Grand Final against Vitality, he out-dueled ZywOo with a 1.35 rating, proving he could stand toe-to-toe with the gods of the game. He transformed FURIA from a team that relied on chaotic "art-style" aggression into a structured powerhouse that claimed two trophies in 2025.

⚠️ THE MAP POOL PURGE IS COMING ⚠️

We are sitting on a powder keg. The current Active Duty pool (Ancient, Dust 2, Inferno, Mirage, Nuke, Train, Overpass) is overdue for a shake-up.

Here is the cold, hard truth about the Season 4 update.

🔮 THE PREDICTION (What Valve Will Do): • Cache Returns ☢️: The "2☢️26" teasers were a promise, not a joke. FMPONE’s masterpiece enters the chat. • Mirage Removed 🚪: It has been the safety blanket for too long. Valve knows the only way to force a new meta is to kill the King. • The New 7: Ancient, Dust 2, Inferno, Nuke, Train, Overpass, Cache.

❤️ THE CAPTIVATION (What Valve SHOULD Do): If they want to break the internet and win us back: • Delete Inferno: CS2 Inferno is claustrophobic and painful. Let it go. • Bring Back Cobblestone: Not just any Cobble—the winter version found in the game files. Give us the Castle back. • Fix the Economy: Make the CT economy forgivable again.

👇 PICK YOUR POISON: Like ❤️ if you are ready for Cache. Repost 🔁 if you are praying they remove Mirage.

🚨The Daily Defuse - #CS2 Top 10 of 2025🚨

6. Kaike "KSCERATO" Cerato (FURIA)
Raw Rating: 1.19

In 2025, @kscerato finally shed the burden of being FURIA's "solo carry," a shift that paradoxically allowed him to play his best Counter-Strike in years. The arrival of the Kazakh prodigy @tvoy_molodoy in April provided the explosive opening aggression FURIA had lacked, liberating KSCERATO to perfect his craft as the world's premier passive lurker.

KSCERATO was the stabilizing engine behind FURIA's resurgence. He operated like a turret, posting a staggering 0.59 Deaths Per Round—the lowest among all riflers in our top 10. His ability to survive and convert disadvantaged situations was unmatched; he essentially guaranteed that if FURIA lost an opening duel, the round wasn't over.

7. Dmitry "sh1ro" Sokolov (Spirit)
Raw Rating: 1.18

The most disciplined player in CS2. sh1ro rarely misses, but he also rarely takes risks. His 1.18 rating is elite, but his impact rating is lower (1.10) compared to the riflers above him. He is the perfect support star for donk.

#CS2 #stavn #MentalHealthMatters

[The Daily Defuse @TheDailyDefuse]

Martin "stavn" Lund is officially a free agent and ready to return to Counter-Strike. But his message today goes far beyond the game.

He revealed that his recent hiatus was spent seeking professional therapy to finally process the grief of losing his brother to suicide in 2021. For years, he buried himself in CS to cope, admitting he "crawled deeper into the server" when he likely needed to step away.

"I now realize that it was at the expense of taking care of myself."

A powerful reminder that no trophy is worth more than your well-being. Massive respect for taking the time to heal, Martin. We’re all rooting for you. ❤️
