ZywOo (Mathieu Herbaut)

ZywOo (Mathieu Herbaut) is the only player besides #1 s1mple to claim the HLTV #1 world ranking three times (2019, 2020, 2022), but trails s1mple's five consecutive titles. His career earnings exceed $800,000, and he maintains a HLTV rating consistently above 1.25 across 400+ matches in top-20 competition — a consistency that is 20% better than the average top-10 player's rating. In 2025, his CS2 performances for Vitality made him the consensus best active player in the world following s1mple's reduced schedule, though he has yet to win a Major title compared to s1mple's two.
