Brazilian players: Neymar, Jesus, Casemiro and others

Several world-class football players from Brazil really like playing some Counter-Strike in the evening. If you at least sometimes hear about football, you’ll definitely know them: Neymar, Casemiro, Gabriel Jesus, Lucas Lima, Arthur Melo… in general, Brazilians are passionate about CS.

At the same time, the love of Brazilian football players for CS doesn’t end with matchmaking or purchasing skins. For example, Neymar watches matches involving Gabriel “FalleN” Toledo and his team.

Oleksandr Zinchenko, Arsenal FC Left-Back

Arsenal’s full-back Oleksandr Zinchenko not only plays CS2 but owns a team! It’s called Passion UA. Moreover, recently he had to sub in at one of the tournaments in a match against Bleed Esports. He helped them win one map, but they unfortunately lost the match later.

GoT’s The Mountain

Hafthor Bjornsson played The Mountain in Game of Thrones, won the title of the strongest man on the planet in 2018, and in 2020 he set a world record in deadlift. An impressive and incomplete list of achievements.

Interestingly, neither the filming schedule in one of the main TV series of the last ten years, nor the Icelandic athlete and actor’s weightlifting career prevents Hafthor Bjornsson from occasionally playing Counter-Strike. Moreover, he not only plays, but also streams a lot!

deadmau5, the legendary DJ

Not only footballers and weightlifters but also musicians like to spend their time on Mirage and Inferno. Deadmau5, a Canadian DJ and music producer ranked #59 on DJ Magazine’s list of the world’s top DJs, loves games from Valve. He even performed at The International 2015! In addition to his love for Dota 2, Deadmau5 also spends time playing CS.

SOULJA BOY

Another musician and CS enthusiast is Deandre Cortez Way, who is better known by his stage name Soulja Boy. The American rapper loves to play all sorts of games, not only CS, though. He streams a lot as well, and even posted his Steam account on Twitter.

Mark Hunt, The Super Samoan

K-1 World Champion and UFC’s Best Knockout Award winner, Mark Hunt, competes not only in the ring but in virtual battles. In one of his interviews, he noted that he had played several thousand hours of CS. Hunt’s inventory is also worth attention, as he states that it’s worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Nikola Jokic: NBA MVP and CS2 MVP

Nikola Jokic has spent thousands of hours on the basketball court. But, as it turns out, almost the same amount of time he spent in CS! At least that’s what his Steam profile says. Another evidence of his commitment to video games is a story told by the basketball player himself.

In 2022, he was selected for the All-Star Game, which his wife called to inform him about. But the basketball player hurried to end the call, because at that moment he was playing CS! So, if you’re pulling a clutch in CS, even the All Stars event can wait.

Team Players: Pontus Jansson and Jonas Jerebko

Sweden is rightfully considered one of the main countries in the history of CS. Did you know that the first DreamHack took place here? Some legendary tags like Fnatic, NiP and GODSENT, as well as many other teams, are from Sweden. Surely, don’t forget that the Swedes brought to the world a lot of talented players and powerful squads.

So, don’t be surprised to see Pontus Jansson and Jonas Jerebko on the list of celebrities playing CS. Pontus, the footballer, and Jonas, the basketball player, show some deep interest in Counter-Strike: Jansson became the co-owner of GODSENT in November 2023, and Jonas bought Renegades back in August 2016.

Surely, Henry Cavill

Superman, The Witcher, Argyle, WH fan, and simply one of the handsomest men in the world, Henry Cavill also like to play CS, yet the range of his favourite games is impressive. The British actor is notable for his strive to World of Warcraft raids, saving Ciri in The Witcher 3, and much more. Even more, according to the actor’s posts, he is a fan of board games, namely Warhammer, and currently produces a huge TV project in this universe.

The actor himself states that he has been an avid gamer from the moment he was able to sit at the PC. This hobby almost cost him the role of Superman in Man of Steel: Henry missed director’s call because he got carried away in a WoW instance. And recently he won the hearts of gamers around the world by posting how he was assembling his new PC.

Everyone plays Counter-Strike, from movie stars to the best basketball players in the world. Many of them not only play, but also collect skins. And you can do it, too. Come to CS.MONEY and update your inventory right now!
