The sniper of Team Vitality in CS2, Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut, was awarded the Most Valuable Player (MVP) medal for ESL Pro League Season 19 by HLTV.org. Representatives of the publication announced this in X.
This is the 19th MVP title in his career—by this measure, he tied with Nicolai "device" Reedtz and almost caught up with Alexander "s1mple" Kostylev, who has 21 MVP medals. Herbaut finished all maps in EPL Season 19 with a rating higher than one, and only on three maps of the grand final did he fail to achieve a positive kill-death difference.
ESL Pro League Season 19 took place from April 23 to May 12. Teams competed for a prize pool of $750,000 and a spot at IEM Cologne 2024. In the final, Vitality lost to MOUZ with a score of 0:3.
