Member of Team Spirit, Ivan ‘zweih’ Gogin, shared his thoughts on the talent of Ilya ‘m0NESY’ Osipov, who plays for Falcons in CS 2. In an interview with HLTV, he mentioned that the sniper could have been one of the top three players in the world if he were part of a Russian-speaking team.

It’s worth noting that m0NESY was ranked among the top three players of 2024 according to the HLTV Awards, finishing second after Danila ‘donk’ Kryshtsov. Although Team Falcons has not secured any trophies this season, losing to Vitality in grand finals three times, Osipov still earned the MVP medal at ESL Pro League Season 22.
