ZywOo Surpasses s1mple in Major Aces

Team Vitality AWPer Mathieu "ZywOo" Herbaut has reached a new milestone at Counter-Strike's biggest events. The French superstar has now recorded five career aces at Majors, surpassing Oleksandr "s1mple" Kostyliev, who sits on four.

ZywOo achieved the feat thanks to two aces he delivered on June 11 during Team Vitality's match against FUT Esports at IEM Cologne Major 2026. Both highlights became some of the standout moments of the day and moved the Frenchman into sole possession of second place on the all-time list.

The last time s1mple recorded an ace at a Major was during PGL Major Antwerp 2022 in a match against ENCE. Since then, the Ukrainian AWPer has not added to his tally.

The all-time record for most Major aces still belongs to former Astralis player Emil "Magisk" Reif. The Danish star managed to wipe out the entire opposing team by himself on nine separate occasions, a record that remains unmatched.
