ZywOo (Mathieu Herbaut) — CS2 Professional Player Settings and Gear
About ZywOo
Mathieu 'ZywOo' Herbaut burst onto the professional Counter-Strike scene in 2019 and immediately claimed the HLTV #1 player ranking in his debut year, an achievement that stunned the entire community. His calm, methodical playstyle stands in stark contrast to s1mple's aggression — ZywOo wins rounds through perfect positioning, impeccable timing, and an almost supernatural ability to read opponent movements before they happen. He has won the HLTV #1 player award four times (2019, 2020, 2023, 2025), putting him in direct conversation with s1mple for the greatest of all time. Under his leadership, Team Vitality has become one of the most consistent forces in CS2, winning IEM Katowice 2025, the BLAST Austin Major 2025, and multiple Tier 1 events. ZywOo's transition from hybrid rifler to primary AWPer showcased his incredible versatility and willingness to adapt his game for team success. His partnership with Pulsar to create his signature mouse reflects his meticulous attention to peripheral setup, and his influence on French esports has inspired a new wave of talent emerging from the region.
