Frozen Ranked 10th on HLTV's List of the Best Players of 2024
On Jan 4, 2025, HLTV announced the 10th place in the ranking of the top 20 players of 2024 in Counter-Strike 2. The Slovak athlete David "frozen" Čerňanský opened the list of the top 10 players of the year. Remarkably, this is the third time the player has made it to the list, improving his position each time.
This year, the core player of FaZe Clan demonstrated excellent statistics, often saving the team in crucial matches. His overall rating was 1.13, KPR – 0.71, KAST – 74.3%, and impact rating – 1.13. Frozen can also be considered one of the most consistent players of the year, which contributed to his high position in this year's HLTV Top 20.
Career Highlights and Achievements
The player’s journey in esports began during his childhood, spending thousands of hours playing CS 1.6. After the release of CS:GO, he almost immediately started competing on the local esports scene. His performances in local tournaments and the FACEIT Pro League soon caught the attention of the international community, leading to an offer to play for NoChance. Following his successful stint with them, he received an invitation from Finn "karrigan" Andersen to join MOUZ.
This became his first professional team, where he began to showcase his talent. He played for MOUZ from 2019 to 2023, securing victories in events like the CS:GO Asia Championships 2019, ESL Pro League Season 10 - Finals, and ESL Pro League Season 18. Additionally, he earned numerous individual awards for his performances.
In 2023, he transitioned to FaZe Clan and secured second place at the BLAST Premier: World Final 2023 in his first tournament with the team. He started 2024 confidently, delivering several strong tournament performances, even though the team was initially in subpar form. FaZe Clan gradually gained momentum, achieving numerous podium finishes, including two second places at Majors. Although the players were disappointed not to clinch victories, FaZe Clan and Frozen still received widespread recognition for their efforts.
2024 Recap and Bold Prediction
Frozen is one of those players who enjoys giving interviews, so here are a few of his comments about FaZe Clan’s performance and his own play in 2024:
- "I felt many glimpses of how we played earlier in the year, closing gaps, playing together, and winning rounds that seemed impossible. We always believed we could win, and it was amazing to play in all those games."
- "I’m happy to be on the list again, but I can’t say I’m satisfied with the year overall," he said.
The player also noted that he aims to improve and deliver better performances in the upcoming year.
Bold prediction: Maxim "kyousuke" Lukin, the star of Spirit Academy, with a 2024 rating of 1.29.
