Donk unexpectedly called ZywOo the best: player statement

Danil “donk” Kryshkovets suddenly said that Mathieu “ZywOo” Herbaut really is the best, but clarified — the best AWPer, while he himself is the best rifler on the CS2 pro scene.

This was said in an interview with Pley.

“It’s hard to say. I like what ZywOo says, that it doesn’t matter if you are first or second. He is the best sniper, and I am the best rifler. It works for both of us. I think the rest only matters for media”

Donk supported ZywOo words that it doesn’t really matter who is first or second. In his opinion, they are both the best, just in their own roles. He also added that many aspects of this rivalry are overhyped by media.

However, ZywOo has already moved ahead in the race for the best player of 2026. Together with his team, he won IEM Kraków 2026 and PGL Cluj-Napoca 2026. In addition, the French sniper added two more MVP medals to his collection, which became his 29th and 30th in career.
